ARTICLE III

PURCHASE TERMS

 

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

 

Section 3.1. Initial
Purchase. Upon the initial satisfaction of all of the conditions set forth in Section 7.2 (such event, the “Commencement”
and the date of such event, the “Commencement Date”), the Company shall  deliver
to the Investor at least one Purchase Notice for a Purchase, pursuant to and in accordance with Section 3.2 of this Agreement and
subject to the satisfaction of all of the conditions set forth in Section 7.3 on the applicable Purchase Exercise Date therefor.

 

Section 3.2. Purchases.
From time to time from and after the Commencement Date, subject to the satisfaction of all of the conditions set forth in Section 7.3
and in this Section 3.2, the Company shall have the right, but not the obligation (other than as set forth in Section 3.1),
to direct the Investor, by its delivery to the Investor of a Purchase Notice on a Purchase Exercise Date to purchase the applicable Purchase
Share Amount, not to exceed the applicable Purchase Maximum Amount, at the applicable Purchase Price therefor in accordance with this
Agreement (each such purchase, a “Purchase”). The Company may deliver a Purchase Notice to the Investor on a
Purchase Exercise Date, provided that (i) the Company may not deliver more than one Purchase Notice to the Investor on any single
Trading Day, (ii) the Company may not deliver a Purchase Notice to the Investor on any Trading Day during the period commencing on
the Purchase Exercise Date on which a prior Purchase Notice has previously been delivered by the Company to the Investor hereunder, and
ending on the applicable Purchase Settlement Date or such later Trading Day on which the Investor shall have received all of the Shares
subject to such prior Purchase Notice as DWAC Shares, and (iii) all Shares subject to all prior Purchase Notices previously delivered
by the Company to the Investor have in fact been received by the Investor as DWAC Shares prior to the Company’s delivery of such
Purchase Notice to the Investor on such Purchase Exercise Date. The Investor is obligated to accept each Purchase Notice prepared and
delivered by the Company in accordance with the terms of and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions contained in this Agreement.
If the Company delivers any Purchase Notice directing the Investor to purchase a Purchase Share Amount in excess of the applicable Purchase
Maximum Amount, such Purchase Notice shall be void ab initio to the extent of the amount by which the Purchase Share
Amount set forth in such Purchase Notice exceeds such applicable Purchase Maximum Amount, and the Investor shall have no obligation to
purchase such excess Shares in respect of such Purchase Notice; provided, however, that the Investor shall remain
obligated to purchase the applicable Purchase Maximum Amount in such Purchase. At or prior to 7:00 p.m., New York City time, on the last
Trading Day of the applicable Purchase Valuation Period for each Purchase, the Investor shall provide to the Company a written confirmation
for such Purchase (each, a “Purchase Confirmation”) setting forth the applicable Purchase Price per Share to
be paid by the Investor in such Purchase, and the total aggregate Purchase Price to be paid by the Investor for the total Purchase Share
Amount purchased by the Investor in such Purchase. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not deliver any Purchase Notices to
the Investor during the PEA Period.

 

    3

     

    

 

Section 3.3. Settlement.
The payment for, against delivery of, the total number of Shares constituting the applicable Purchase Share Amount purchased by the Investor
in each Purchase shall be settled on the Trading Day immediately following the last Trading Day of the applicable Purchase Valuation Period
for such Purchase (the “Purchase Settlement Date”). For each Purchase, the Investor shall pay to the Company
an amount in cash equal to the product of (i) the total Purchase Share Amount purchased by the Investor in such Purchase and (ii) the
applicable Purchase Price per Share to be paid by the Investor in such Purchase, as full payment for such total Purchase Share Amount,
via wire transfer of immediately available funds following the last Trading Day of the applicable VWAP Purchase Valuation Period. If the
Company or the Transfer Agent shall fail for any reason, other than a failure of the Investor or its Broker-Dealer to set up a DWAC and
required instructions, to electronically transfer any Shares as DWAC Shares in respect of a Purchase within five (5) Trading Days
following the receipt by the Company of the applicable purchase price therefor in compliance with this Section 3.3, and if on or
after such Trading Day the Investor purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction
of a sale by the Investor of such Shares that the Investor anticipated receiving from the Company in respect of such Purchase, then the
Company shall, within two (2) Trading Days after the Investor’s request, either (1) pay cash to the Investor in an amount
equal to the Investor’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased
(the “Cover Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to deliver such Shares as DWAC Shares shall
terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Investor such Shares as DWAC Shares and pay cash to the Investor
in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Cover Price over the total purchase price paid by the Investor pursuant to this Agreement
for all of the Shares to be purchased by the Investor in connection with such Purchase. The Company shall not issue any fraction of a
share of Common Stock upon any Purchase. If the issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Common Stock, the Company
shall round such fraction of a share of Common Stock up or down to the nearest whole share. All payments made under this Agreement shall
be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as the Company may from time to time designate by written notice
in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

 

Section 3.4. Compliance
with Rules of Trading Market.

 

(a) Exchange
Cap. To the extent the Company has not opted to apply the governance practices of its home country pursuant to NASDAQ Listing
Rule 5615(a)(3) and subject to Section 3.4(b), the Company shall not issue or sell any shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement,
and the Investor shall not purchase or acquire any shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement, to the extent that after giving
effect thereto, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that would be issued pursuant to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby would exceed 627,400 (representing 19.99% of the shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the execution
of this Agreement), which number of shares shall be reduced, on a share-for-share basis, by the number of shares of Common Stock
issued or issuable pursuant to any transaction or series of transactions that may be aggregated with the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement under applicable rules of the Trading Market (such maximum number of shares, the “Exchange Cap”),
unless the Company’s stockholders have approved the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement in excess of the Exchange
Cap in accordance with the applicable rules of the Trading Market. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company may, but shall be under no
obligation to, request its stockholders to approve the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement; provided, that
if such stockholder approval is not obtained, the Exchange Cap shall be applicable for all purposes of this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby at all times during the term of this Agreement (except as set forth in Section 3.4(b)).

 

    4

     

    

 

(b) At-Market Transaction. Notwithstanding
Section 3.4(a) above, the Exchange Cap shall not be applicable for any purposes of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby, solely to the extent that (and only for so long as) the Average Price shall equal or exceed the Base Price (it being hereby acknowledged
and agreed that the Exchange Cap shall be applicable for all purposes of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby at all
other times during the term of this Agreement, unless the stockholder approval referred to in Section 3.4(a) is obtained). The parties
acknowledge and agree that the Minimum Price used to determine the Base Price hereunder represents the lower of (i) the official
closing price of the Common Stock on the Trading Market (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) on the date of this Agreement and (ii) the average
official closing price of the Common Stock on the Trading Market (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) for the five (5) consecutive Trading
Days ending on the date of this Agreement.

 

(c) General. The
Company shall not issue or sell any shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement if such issuance or sale would reasonably be expected
to result in (A) a violation of the Securities Act or (B) a breach of the rules of the Trading Market. The provisions of this
Section 3.4 shall be implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 3.4 only if
necessary to ensure compliance with the Securities Act and the applicable rules of the Trading Market.

 

Section 3.5. Beneficial
Ownership Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the number of Securities then to be
purchased by the Investor shall not exceed the number of such shares that, when aggregated with all other shares of Common Stock then
owned by the Investor beneficially or deemed beneficially owned by the Investor, would result in the Investor owning more than the Beneficial
Ownership Limitation (as defined below), as determined in accordance with Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the regulations promulgated
thereunder. For purposes of this Section 3.5, in the event that the amount of Common Stock outstanding is greater on a Closing
Date than on the date upon which the Purchase Notice associated with such Closing Date is given, the amount of Common Stock outstanding
on such issuance of a Purchase Notice shall govern for purposes of determining whether the Investor, when aggregating all purchases of
Common Stock made pursuant to this Agreement, would own more than the Beneficial Ownership Limitation following such Closing Date. The
“Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately
prior to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to a Purchase Notice. Upon mutual agreement of Company and Investor,
expressed in writing upon not less than 61 days’ prior written notice, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation may be increased to 9.99%
of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant
to a Purchase Notice. Any such increase from 4.99% to 9.99% will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is agreed to by
the parties.

of and receive answers from representatives of the Company concerning the financial condition and business of the Company and other matters
relating to an investment in the Securities. Neither such inquiries nor any other due diligence investigations conducted by the Investor

prohibit the Investor from purchasing, in an open market transaction or otherwise, shares of Common Stock necessary to make delivery
by the Investor in satisfaction of a sale by the Investor of Shares that the Investor anticipated receiving from the Company in
connection with the settlement of a Purchase if the Company or its transfer agent shall have failed for any reason (other than a
failure of Investor or its Broker-Dealer to set up a DWAC and required instructions) to electronically transfer all of the Shares
subject to such Purchase to the Investor on the applicable Settlement Date by crediting the Investor’s or its designated
Broker-Dealer’s account at DTC through its DWAC delivery system in compliance with Section 3.3 of this Agreement.

 

Section 4.11. Statutory
Underwriter Status. The Investor acknowledges that it will be disclosed as an “underwriter” and a “selling stockholder”

on the date it is filed with the Commission, on the date it is declared effective by the Commission, on each Purchase Exercise Date shall
comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act (including, without limitation, Rule 415 under the Securities
Act) and shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary

on each Purchase Exercise Date, shall comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act (including, without
limitation, Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act) and shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which
they were made, not misleading, except that this representation and warranty shall not apply to statements in or omissions from the Prospectus
or any Prospectus Supplement made in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to the Investor furnished to the Company
in writing by or on behalf of the Investor expressly for use therein. Each Commission Document (other than the Initial Registration Statement

(b) The
financial statements of the Company included in the Commission Documents filed with or furnished to the Commission as of the applicable

thereto, comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Securities Act in effect as of
the time of filing and present fairly in all material respects the consolidated financial condition of the Company and its consolidated
subsidiaries as of the dates shown and its results of operations and cash flows for the periods shown, and such financial statements have
been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) applied
on a consistent basis throughout the periods covered thereby except for any normal year-end adjustments in the Company’s
quarterly financial statements; all non-GAAP financial information included in such Commission Documents complies with the requirements
of Regulation G and Item 10 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, to the extent applicable; and, except as disclosed in
the Commission Documents, there are no material off-balance sheet arrangements (as defined in Regulation S-K under
the Act, Item 303(a)(4)(ii)) that may reasonably have a material current or, to the Company’s Knowledge, material future effect
on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, capital resources or significant components
of revenue or expenses.

 

(c) Except
as set forth in the Commission Documents, the Company and the Subsidiaries maintain a system of internal accounting controls sufficient
to provide reasonable assurance that: (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations,
(ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain
asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization,
and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action
is taken with respect to any differences. Except as set forth in the Commission Documents, the Company maintains disclosure controls and
procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) designed to ensure that material information
relating to the Company and its subsidiaries is communicated to the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial
officer by others within those entities. The Company’s certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the disclosure controls
and procedures of the Company and the Subsidiaries as of the end of the period covered by the most recently filed periodic report under
the Exchange Act (such date, the “Evaluation Date”). The Company presented in its most recently filed periodic
report under the Exchange Act the conclusions of the certifying officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures
based on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation Date, there have been no changes in the internal control over
financial reporting (as such term is defined in the Exchange Act) of the Company and its Subsidiaries that have materially adversely affected,
or is reasonably likely to materially adversely affect, the internal control over financial reporting of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

 

(d) To the
Company’s Knowledge, MaloneBailey LLP , which has expressed its opinion with respect to the consolidated financial statements and
schedules as of December 31, 2021 and 2019, and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2021, is (x) an
independent registered public accounting firm with respect to the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act and (y) not in

(b) all guaranties, endorsements, indemnities and other contingent obligations in respect of Indebtedness of others in excess of $1,000,000,

to any written or oral contract, instrument, agreement commitment, obligation, plan or arrangement, a copy of which would be required

or time this representation is being made under Article VII hereof conform in all material respects to the descriptions
thereof contained or incorporated by reference therein. Except as set forth in the Commission Documents, the Company and each of its Subsidiaries

and binding obligation enforceable in accordance with its terms against the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries and, to the Knowledge
of the Company, each other contracting party thereto, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,

to by the Company for current or former employees or directors of, or independent contractors with respect to, the Company has been maintained
in material compliance with its terms and the requirements of any applicable statutes, orders, rules and regulations, and the Company
has complied in all material respects with all applicable statutes, orders, rules and regulations in regard to such plans, agreements,
policies and arrangements. Each stock option granted under any equity incentive plan of the Company (each, a “Stock Plan”)
was granted with a per share exercise price no less than the market price per common share on the grant date of such option in accordance
with the rules of the Trading Market, and no such grant involved any “back-dating,” “forward-dating” or similar

principal suppliers or contractors, that would have a Material Adverse Effect.

    17

     

    

 

Section 5.23. Investment
Company Act Status. The Company is not, and immediately after giving effect to the sale of the Shares in accordance with this
Agreement and the application of the proceeds from the sale of the Shares as will be set forth in the Prospectus included in any Registration

as amended.

 

Section 5.24. ERISA.
Except as set forth in the Commission Documents, the Company is not a party to an “employee benefit plan,” as defined in Section 3(3)
of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), which: (i) is subject to
Title IV of ERISA and (ii) is or was at any time maintained, administered or contributed to by the Company or any of its ERISA Affiliates
(as defined hereafter). These plans are referred to collectively herein as the “Employee Plans.” An “ERISA Affiliate”
of any person or entity means any other person or entity which, together with that person or entity, could be treated as a single employer
under Section 414(b), (c), (m) or (o) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).
Each Employee Plan has been maintained in material compliance with its terms and the requirements of applicable law. Except as disclosed
in the Commission Documents, there is no liability in respect of post-retirement health and medical benefits for retired employees of
the Company or any of its ERISA Affiliates, other than medical benefits required to be continued under applicable law. No “prohibited
transaction”(as defined in either Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) has occurred with respect to any Employee
Plan; and each Employee Plan that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code is so qualified, and nothing has occurred,
whether by action or by failure to act, which could cause the loss of such qualification (except where such occurrence or failure to qualify
would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole).

 

Section 5.25. Taxes.
The Company and each of its Subsidiaries has filed all federal, state, local and foreign tax returns required to be filed through the
Closing Date or has requested extensions thereof (except where the failure to file would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a
Material Adverse Effect on the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole) and have paid all taxes required to be paid thereon (except
for cases in which the failure to file or pay would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company
and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or, except as are currently being contested in good faith and for which reserves required by U.S.
GAAP have been created in the financial statements of the Company), and no tax deficiency has been determined adversely to the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries which, individually or in the aggregate, has had (nor does the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries have any
notice or knowledge of any tax deficiency which could reasonably be expected to be determined adversely to the Company or its Subsidiaries
and which would reasonably be expected to have) a Material Adverse Effect on the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole. The term
“taxes” mean all federal, state, local, foreign, and other net income, gross income, gross receipts, sales, use, ad valorem,
transfer, franchise, profits, license, lease, service, service use, withholding, payroll, employment, excise, severance, stamp, occupation,
premium, property, windfall profits, customs, duties or other taxes, fees, assessments, or charges of any kind whatsoever, together with
any interest and any penalties, additions to tax, or additional amounts with respect thereto. The term “returns” means all
returns, declarations, reports, statements, and other documents required to be filed in respect to taxes.

 

    18

     

    

 

Section 5.26. Insurance.
The Company and the Subsidiaries are insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks and in such
amounts as in the Company’s reasonable judgment are prudent and customary in the businesses in which the Company and the Subsidiaries
are engaged, including, but not limited to, directors and officers insurance coverage. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has any
reason to believe that it will not be able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar
coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its business at a cost that would not, individually or in the aggregate,
have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

 

Section 5.27. Exemption
from Registration. Subject to, and in reliance on, the representations, warranties and covenants made herein by the Investor,
the offer and sale of the Securities in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement is exempt from the registration requirements
of the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) and/or Rule 506(b) of Regulation D; provided, however,
that at the request of and with the express agreements of the Investor (including, without limitation, the representations, warranties
and covenants of Investor set forth in Section 4.9 through 4.13), the Securities to be issued from and after Commencement to or for
the benefit of the Investor pursuant to this Agreement shall be issued to the Investor or its designee only as DWAC Shares and will not
bear legends noting restrictions as to resale of such securities under federal or state securities laws, nor will any such securities
be subject to stop transfer instructions.

 

Section 5.28. No
General Solicitation or Advertising. Neither the Company, nor any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, nor any Person acting on
its or their behalf, has engaged in any form of general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D) in connection
with the offer or sale of the Securities.

 

Section 5.29. No
Integrated Offering. None of the Company or any of its Affiliates, nor any Person acting on their behalf has, directly or indirectly,
made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security, in a manner that would require registration of the
issuance of any of the Securities under the Securities Act, whether through integration with prior offerings or otherwise, or cause this
offering of the Securities to require approval of stockholders of the Company under the rules and regulations of the Trading Market. None
of the Company, its Subsidiaries, their Affiliates nor any Person acting on their behalf will take any action or steps referred to in
the preceding sentence that would require registration of the issuance of any of the Securities under the Securities Act or cause the
offering of any of the Securities to be integrated with other offerings.

 

Section 5.30. Dilutive
Effect. The Company is aware and acknowledges that issuance of the Securities could cause dilution to existing stockholders and
could significantly increase the outstanding number of shares of Common Stock. The Company further acknowledges that its obligation to
issue the Commitment Shares and to issue the Shares pursuant to the terms of a Purchase, in each case, is (subject to the terms and conditions
in this Agreement) absolute and unconditional regardless of the dilutive effect that such issuance may have on the ownership interests
of other stockholders of the Company.

 

    19

     

    

 

Section 5.31. Manipulation
of Price. Neither the Company nor any of its officers, directors or Affiliates has, and, to the Knowledge of the Company, no Person
acting on their behalf has, (i) taken, directly or indirectly, any action designed or intended to cause or to result in the stabilization
or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company, or which caused or resulted in, or which would in the future reasonably be
expected to cause or result in, the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company, in each case to facilitate
the sale or resale of any of the Securities, (ii) sold, bid for, purchased, or paid any compensation for soliciting purchases of,
any of the Securities, except as set forth on Section 5.15 of the Disclosure Schedule, or (iii) paid or agreed to pay to any
Person any compensation for soliciting another to purchase any other securities of the Company. Neither the Company nor any of its officers,
directors or Affiliates will during the term of this Agreement, and, to the Knowledge of the Company, no Person acting on their behalf
will during the term of this Agreement, take any of the actions referred to in the immediately preceding sentence.

 

Section 5.32. Securities
Act. Except as set forth in the Disclosure Schedule, the Company has complied and shall comply with all applicable federal and
state securities laws in connection with the offer, issuance and sale of the Securities hereunder, including, without limitation, the
applicable requirements of the Securities Act. Each Registration Statement, upon filing with the Commission and at the time it is declared
effective by the Commission, shall satisfy all of the requirements of the Securities Act to register the resale of the Registrable Securities
included therein by the Investor in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement on a delayed or continuous basis under Rule 415
under the Securities Act at then-prevailing market prices, and not fixed prices. The Company is not an issuer identified in Rule 144(i)(1)(i).

 

Section 5.33. Registration Statement.
The Company has prepared and filed the Registration Statement with the SEC in accordance with the Securities Act. The Registration Statement
was declared effective by order of the SEC on July 21, 2020. The Registration Statement is effective pursuant to the Securities Act and
available for the issuance of the Securities thereunder, and the Company has not received any written notice that the SEC has issued or
intends to issue a stop order or other similar order with respect to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or that the SEC otherwise
has (i) suspended or withdrawn the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or (ii) issued any order preventing or suspending the use
of the Prospectus or any Prospectus Supplement, in either case, either temporarily or permanently or intends or has threatened in writing
to do so. The “Plan of Distribution” section of the Prospectus permits the issuance of the Securities under the terms of this
Agreement. At the time the Registration Statement and any amendments thereto became effective, at the date of this Agreement and at each
deemed effective date thereof pursuant to Rule 430B(f)(2) of the Securities Act, the Registration Statement and any amendments thereto
complied and will comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and did not and will not contain any untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein
not misleading; and the Base Prospectus and any Prospectus Supplement thereto, at the time such Base Prospectus or such Prospectus Supplement
thereto was issued and on the Commencement Date, complied and will comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities
Act and did not and will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make
the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided that this representation and
warranty does not apply to statements in or omissions from any Prospectus Supplement made in reliance upon and in conformity with information
relating to the Investor furnished to the Company in writing by or on behalf of the Investor expressly for use therein. The Company meets
all of the requirements for the use of a registration statement on Form F-3 pursuant to the Securities Act for the offering and sale of
the securities contemplated by this Agreement in reliance on General Instruction I.B.5. of Form F-3, and the SEC has not notified the
Company of any objection to the use of the form of the Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 401(g)(1) of the Securities Act. The Company
hereby confirms that the issuance of the Common Stock to the Investor pursuant to this Agreement would not result in non-compliance with
the Securities Act or any of the General Instructions to Form F-3. The Registration Statement, as of its effective date, meets the requirements
set forth in Rule 415(a)(1)(x) pursuant to the Securities Act. At the earliest time after the filing of the Registration Statement that
the Company or another offering participant made a bona fide offer (within the meaning of Rule 164(h)(2) of the Securities Act) relating
to any of the Securities, the Company was not, and as of the date of this Agreement the Company is not, an Ineligible Issuer (as defined
in Rule 405 of the Securities Act). The Company has not distributed any offering material in connection with the offering and sale of
any of the Common Stock, and, until the Investor does not hold any of the Securities, shall not distribute any offering material in connection
with the offering and sale of any of the Securities, to or by the Investor, in each case, other than the Registration Statement or any
amendment thereto, the Prospectus or any Prospectus Supplement required pursuant to applicable law or the Transaction Documents. The Company
has not made and shall not make an offer relating to the Securities that would constitute a “free writing prospectus” as defined
in Rule 405 under the Securities Act.

 

    20

of the Exchange Act, and the Company has taken no action designed to, or which to its Knowledge is likely to have the effect of, terminating
the registration of the Common Stock under the Exchange Act, nor has the Company received any notification that the Commission is contemplating
terminating such registration. As of the Closing Date, the Company has not received notice from the Trading Market or any Eligible Market
on which the Common Stock is or has been listed or quoted to the effect that the Company is not in compliance with the listing or maintenance
requirements of such Trading Market or Eligible Market, as applicable. As of the Closing Date, the Company is in compliance with all such
listing and maintenance requirements. The Common Stock is eligible for participation in the DTC book entry system and has shares on deposit
at DTC for transfer electronically to third parties via DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian (“DWAC”)
delivery system. The Company has not received notice from DTC to the effect that a suspension of, or restriction on, accepting additional
deposits of the Common Stock, electronic trading or book-entry services by DTC with respect to the Common Stock is being imposed or is
contemplated.

 

Section 5.35. Application
of Takeover Protections. The Company and its Board of Directors have taken all necessary action, if any, in order to render inapplicable
any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement) or other similar
anti-takeover provision under the Company’s Charter or the laws of its state of incorporation that is or could become applicable

under the Transaction Documents (as applicable), including, without limitation, as a result of the Company’s issuance of the Securities
and the Investor’s ownership of the Securities.

or controlled entity or of a public international organization, or any person acting in an official capacity for or on behalf of any of
the foregoing, or any political party or party official or candidate for political office) to influence official action or secure an improper
advantage (to the extent acting on behalf of or providing services to the Company); and the Company and its Subsidiaries have conducted
their businesses within the past five years in compliance with the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended (the “FCPA”)

with such laws and with the representation and warranty contained herein.

partner or other Person (a) to fund or facilitate any activities or business of or with any Person or in any country or territory
that, at the time of such funding or facilitation, is the subject of Sanctions, or (b) in any other manner that will result in a
violation of Sanctions by any Person (including any Person participating in the offering, whether as underwriter, advisor, investor or
otherwise). For the past five years, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries have knowingly engaged in, or are now knowingly engaged
in, any dealings or transactions with any Person, or in any country or territory, that at the time of the dealing or transaction is or
was the subject of Sanctions.

of the Securities. The Company further represents to the Investor that the Company’s decision to enter into the Transaction Documents

ARTICLE VI

ADDITIONAL COVENANTS

 

The Company covenants with the
Investor, and the Investor covenants with the Company, as follows, which covenants of one party are for the benefit of the other party,
during the Investment Period (and with respect to the Company, for the period following the termination of this Agreement specified in
Section 8.3 pursuant to and in accordance with Section 8.3):

 

Section 6.1. Securities
Compliance. The Company shall notify the Commission and the Trading Market, if and as applicable, in accordance with their respective
rules and regulations, of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, and shall take all necessary action, undertake all
proceedings and obtain all registrations, permits, consents and approvals for the legal and valid issuance of the Securities to the Investor
in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents, as applicable.

 

Section 6.2. Reservation
of Common Stock. The Company has available and the Company shall reserve and keep available at all times, free of preemptive and
other similar rights of stockholders, the requisite aggregate number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to enable the Company
to timely effect (i) the issuance and delivery of all Commitment Shares to be issued and delivered to the Investor under Section 10.1(ii)
hereof within the time period specified in Section 10.1(ii) hereof, and (ii) the issuance, sale and delivery of all Shares to
be issued, sold and delivered in respect of each Purchase effected under this Agreement, in the case of this clause (ii), at least prior
to the delivery by the Company to the Investor of the applicable Purchase Notice in connection with such Purchase. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, (a) as of the date of this Agreement, the Company has reserved, out of its authorized and unissued Common
Stock, 53,334 shares of Common Stock solely for the purpose of issuing all of the Commitment Shares under this Agreement to be issued
and delivered to the Investor under Section 10.1(ii) hereof within the time period specified in Section 10.1(ii) hereof, and
(b) as of the date of this Agreement the Company has reserved, and as of the Commencement Date shall have continued to reserve, out
of its authorized and unissued Common Stock 750,552 shares of Common Stock solely for the purpose of effecting Purchases under this Agreement.
The number of shares of Common Stock so reserved for the purpose of effecting Purchases under this Agreement may be increased from time
to time by the Company from and after the Commencement Date, and such number of reserved shares may be reduced from and after the Commencement
Date only by the number of Shares actually issued, sold and delivered to the Investor pursuant to any Purchase effected from and after
the Commencement Date pursuant to this Agreement.

 

Section 6.3. Registration
and Listing. During the Investment Period, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Common Stock
to continue to be registered as a class of securities under Sections 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act, and to comply with its reporting
and filing obligations under the Exchange Act, and shall not take any action or file any document (whether or not permitted by the Securities
Act or the Exchange Act) to terminate or suspend such registration or to terminate or suspend its reporting and filing obligations under
the Exchange Act or Securities Act, except as permitted herein. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to continue
the listing and trading of its Common Stock and the listing of the Securities purchased by the Investor hereunder on the Trading Market
and to comply with the Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules and regulations of the Trading
Market. The Company shall not take any action which would be reasonably expected to result in the delisting or suspension of the Common
Stock on the Trading Market. If the Company receives any final and non-appealable notice that the listing or quotation of the
Common Stock on the Trading Market shall be terminated on a date certain, the Company shall promptly (and in any case within 24 hours)
notify the Investor of such fact in writing and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Common Stock to be listed or
quoted on another Eligible Market.

 

    25

     

    

 

Section 6.4. Compliance
with Laws.

 

(i) During
the Investment Period, the Company shall comply, and cause each Subsidiary (if any) to comply, with applicable provisions of the Securities
Act and the Exchange Act, including Regulation M thereunder, applicable state securities or “Blue Sky” laws, and applicable
listing rules of the Trading Market or Eligible Market, except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, prohibit or otherwise interfere
with the ability of the Company to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement in any material respect or for Investor
to conduct resales of Securities under the Registration Statement in any material respect. Without limiting the foregoing, neither the
Company, nor to the Knowledge of the Company, any of their respective directors, officers, agents, employees or any other Persons acting
on their behalf shall, in connection with the operation of the Company’s businesses, (1) use any corporate funds for unlawful
contributions, payments, gifts or entertainment or to make any unlawful expenditures relating to political activity to government officials,
candidates or members of political parties or organizations, (2) pay, accept or receive any unlawful contributions, payments, expenditures
or gifts, or (3) violate or operate in noncompliance with any export restrictions, anti-boycott regulations, embargo regulations
or other applicable domestic or foreign laws and regulations, including, without limitation, the FCPA and the Money Laundering Laws.

 

(ii) The
Investor shall comply with all laws, rules, regulations and orders applicable to the performance by it of its obligations under this Agreement
and its investment in the Securities, except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, prohibit or otherwise interfere with the
ability of the Investor to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement in any material respect. Without limiting the foregoing,
the Investor shall comply with all applicable provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, including Regulation M thereunder,
and all applicable state securities or “Blue Sky” laws.

 

Section 6.5. Keeping
of Purchase Records; Ongoing Due Diligence.

 

(i) During
the Investment Period, the Investor and the Company shall each maintain records showing the remaining Total Commitment and Aggregate Limit
at any given time and the dates and Purchase Share Amounts for each Purchase effected by the Company and settled pursuant to this Agreement.

 

(ii) Subject
to the requirements of Section 6.12, from time to time from and after the Closing Date, the Company shall make available for inspection
and review by the Investor during normal business hours and after reasonable notice, customary documentation reasonably requested by the
Investor and/or its appointed counsel or advisors to conduct due diligence; provided, however, that after the
Closing Date, the Investor’s continued due diligence shall not be a condition precedent to the Company’s right to deliver
to the Investor any Purchase Notice or the settlement thereof.

 

    26

     

    

 

Section 6.6. No
Frustration; No Variable Rate Transactions During Purchases; No Similar Transactions.

 

(i) No
Frustration. The Company shall not enter into, announce or recommend to its stockholders any agreement, plan, arrangement
or transaction in or of which the terms thereof would restrict, materially delay, conflict with or impair the ability or right of the
Company to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, including, without limitation, the obligation
of the Company to deliver the Securities to the Investor or its designee in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. For the avoidance
of doubt, nothing in this Section 6.6(i) shall in any way limit the Company’s right to terminate this Agreement in accordance
with Section 8.2 (subject in all cases to Section 8.3).

 

(ii) No
Dilutive Issuances Before Settlement of a Pending Purchase. None of the Company or any Subsidiary shall issue, sell or grant
any right, option or warrant to purchase, or issue, sell or grant any right to reprice (or reset the purchase price therefor), or otherwise
dispose of for cash (or enter into any agreement, plan or arrangement contemplating any of the foregoing, or seek to utilize any existing
agreement, plan or arrangement to effect any of the foregoing), or announce any offer, issuance, sale or grant of any option or warrant
to purchase or other disposition for cash (or any agreement, plan or arrangement therefor), at any time during the period beginning on
the Trading Day immediately preceding the applicable Purchase Exercise Date for a Purchase and ending on the applicable Purchase Settlement
Date for such Purchase (each such period for each Purchase, a “Reference Period”), any Common Stock or Common
Stock Equivalents, at an effective price per share of Common Stock less than the applicable Purchase Price per Share (such price, the
“Reference Price”) to be to be paid by the Investor in such Purchase effected during such Reference Period (each
such issuance, a “Dilutive Issuance”), other than an Exempt Issuance (it being understood and agreed that if
the holder of the Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents so issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase price adjustments,
reset provisions, floating conversion, exercise or exchange prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options or rights per share which
are issued in connection with such issuance, be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share of Common Stock
that is less than the applicable Reference Price, such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the applicable Reference
Price on such date of the Dilutive Issuance at such effective price). If the Company enters into a Variable Rate Transaction during the
Reference Period involving the issuance of Common Stock Equivalents having a conversion price, exercise price, exchange rate or other
price that is based upon and/or varies with the trading prices of or quotations for the Common Stock at any time after the initial issuance
of such Common Stock Equivalents, the Company shall be deemed to have issued, as of the date the Common Stock Equivalents were issued
(whether or not such Common Stock Equivalents are then immediately exercisable or convertible), the Common Stock underlying such Common
Stock Equivalents at the lowest possible conversion or exercise price at which such Common Stock Equivalents may be converted or exercised
for Common Stock (and if such Common Stock Equivalents include a “floor price” representing the lowest conversion or exercise
price at which such Common Stock Equivalents may be converted or exercised, the Company shall be deemed to have issued the Common Stock
underlying such Common Stock Equivalents at a price equal to such floor price). The Investor shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief
against the Company, and any Subsidiary (as applicable) to preclude any such Dilutive Issuance that does not constitute an Exempt Issuance,
which remedy shall be in addition to any right to collect damages, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond
or other security being required.

 

    27

     

    

 

(iii) No
Other Similar Transactions. From and after the date of this Agreement until the earliest of (i) the date of automatic
termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1, (ii) the effective date of termination of this Agreement by the mutual written
consent of the parties hereto pursuant to Section 8.2, and (iii) the effective date of termination of this Agreement by the
Investor pursuant to Section 8.2, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall issue, sell or grant any, or otherwise dispose of
or issue (or enter into any agreement, plan or arrangement contemplating any of the foregoing, or seek to utilize any existing agreement,
plan or arrangement to effect any of the foregoing), or announce any offer, issuance, sale or grant or other disposition or issuance (or
any agreement, plan or arrangement therefor) any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (or a combination of units thereof) in any “equity
line of credit” or other substantially similar continuous offering in which the Company may offer, issue or sell Common Stock or
Common Stock Equivalents (or any combination of units thereof) at a future determined price, other than (a) Securities issued to
the Investor pursuant to this Agreement and any of the other Transaction Documents, or pursuant to any other agreement entered into by
the Company and the Investor at any time after the date of termination of this Agreement and (b) any securities of the Company issued
upon the exercise or exchange of or conversion of any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents held by the Investor or any of
its Affiliates at any time.

 

Section 6.7. Reserved.

 

Section 6.8. Fundamental
Transaction. The Company shall not consummate any Fundamental Transaction during the Reference Period of any Purchase.

 

Section 6.9. Selling
Restrictions. The Investor agrees that beginning on the date of this Agreement and ending on the date of termination of this
Agreement as provided in Article VIII, neither the Investor, nor any of its Affiliates, agents or representatives, shall in any manner
whatsoever enter into or effect, directly or indirectly, any (i) Short Sales of the Common Stock or (ii) hedging transaction,
which establishes a net short position with respect to the Common Stock. In addition to the foregoing, in connection with any resale of
Securities, the Investor shall comply in all respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders, including, without limitation,
the requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.

 

Section 6.10. Effective
Registration Statement. During the Investment Period, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the
continuous effectiveness of the Initial Registration Statement and each New Registration Statement filed with the Commission under the
Securities Act for the applicable Registration Period pursuant to and in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement.

 

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

by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (as determined in the
reasonable good faith judgment of the Investor), if the Investor is holding any Securities at the time of the disclosure of such material non-public information,
the Investor shall have the right to make a public disclosure, in the form of a press release, public advertisement or otherwise, of such
material, non-public information without the prior approval by the Company; provided the Investor shall have first promptly
provided notice to the Company that it believes it has received information that constitutes material, non-public information,
the Company shall have at least twenty-four (24) hours from receipt of such notice to either publicly disclose such material, non-public information
or to demonstrate to the Investor that such information does not constitute material, non-public information, prior to any such
disclosure by the Investor, and the Company shall have failed to publicly disclose such material, non-public information or
to demonstrate to the Investor that such information does not constitute material, non-public information within such time period.
The Investor shall not have any liability to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective directors, officers, employees,
stockholders or agents, for any such disclosure.

 

Section 6.13. Broker/Dealer.

then currently engaged or used by the Company, and a DTC participant (collectively, the “Broker-Dealer”). The
Investor shall, from time to time, provide the Company and its transfer agent with all information regarding the Broker-Dealer reasonably
requested by the Company. The Investor shall be solely responsible for all fees and commissions of the Broker-Dealer, which shall not

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

 

    29

     

    

 

(ii) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in the Disclosure Schedule or in this Agreement, the information and disclosure contained in any Schedule

V (Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Company), Article IX (Indemnification), Article X (Miscellaneous) and this Article
VIII (Termination) shall remain in full force and effect indefinitely notwithstanding such termination, and, (ii) so long as the

in this Agreement to the contrary, no termination of this Agreement by any party shall (i) become effective prior to the first Trading
Day immediately following the settlement date related to any pending Purchase Notice that has not been fully settled in accordance with
the terms and conditions of this Agreement (it being hereby acknowledged and agreed that no termination of this Agreement shall limit,
alter, modify, change or otherwise affect any of the Company’s or the Investor’s rights or obligations under the Transaction
Documents with respect to any pending Purchase, and that the parties shall fully perform their respective obligations with respect to
any such pending Purchase under the Transaction Documents, provided all of the conditions to the settlement thereof set
forth in Article VII are timely satisfied), (ii) limit, alter, modify, change or otherwise affect the Company’s or the Investor’s

it being hereby acknowledged and agreed that all of the Commitment Shares shall be fully earned as of the Closing Date, regardless of
whether any Purchases are made or settled hereunder or any subsequent termination of this Agreement. Nothing in this Section 8.3
shall be deemed to release the Company or the Investor from any liability for any breach or default under this Agreement or any of the
other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, or to impair the rights of the Company and the Investor to compel specific performance
by the other party of its obligations under the Transaction Documents to which it is a party.

 

ARTICLE IX

INDEMNIFICATION

 

Section 9.1. Indemnification
of Investor. In consideration of the Investor’s execution and delivery of this Agreement and acquiring the Securities hereunder
and in addition to all of the Company’s other obligations under the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, subject to the
provisions of this Section 9.1, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Investor, each of its directors, officers, shareholders,
members, partners, employees, representatives, agents and advisors (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person
holding such titles notwithstanding the lack of such title or any other title), each Person, if any, who controls the Investor (within
the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act), and the respective directors, officers,
shareholders, members, partners, employees, representatives, agents and advisors (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent
role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding the lack of such title or any other title) of such controlling Persons (each, an
“Investor Party”), from and against all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, contingencies, damages, costs
and expenses (including all judgments, amounts paid in settlement, court costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of defense
and investigation) (collectively, “Damages”) that any Investor Party may suffer or incur as a result of or relating
to (a) any breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Company in this Agreement or in
the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party or (b) any action, suit, claim or proceeding (including for these purposes
a derivative action brought on behalf of the Company) instituted against such Investor Party arising out of or resulting from the execution,
delivery, performance or enforcement of the Transaction Documents, other than claims for indemnification within the scope of Section 6
of the Registration Rights Agreement; provided, however, that (x) the foregoing indemnity shall not apply
to any Damages to the extent, but only to the extent, that such Damages resulted directly and primarily from a breach of any of the Investor’s
representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement, and (y) the
Company shall not be liable under subsection (b) of this Section 9.1 to the extent, but only to the extent, that a court of
competent jurisdiction shall have determined by a final judgment (from which no further appeals are available) that such Damages resulted
directly and primarily from any acts or failures to act, undertaken or omitted to be taken by such Investor Party through its fraud, bad
faith, gross negligence, or willful or reckless misconduct.

 

    39

     

    

 

The Company shall reimburse
any Investor Party promptly upon demand (with accompanying presentation of documentary evidence) for all legal and other costs and expenses
reasonably incurred by such Investor Party in connection with (i) any action, suit, claim or proceeding, whether at law or in equity,
to enforce compliance by the Company with any provision of the Transaction Documents or (ii) any other any action, suit, claim or
proceeding, whether at law or in equity, with respect to which it is entitled to indemnification under this Section 9.1; provided that
the Investor shall promptly reimburse the Company for all such legal and other costs and expenses to the extent a court of competent jurisdiction
determines that any Investor Party was not entitled to such reimbursement.

 

An Investor Party’s right
to indemnification or other remedies based upon the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the Company set forth in
the Transaction Documents shall not in any way be affected by any investigation or knowledge of such Investor Party. Such representations,
warranties, covenants and agreements shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of the fact that an Investor Party knew or should
have known that any representation or warranty might be inaccurate or that the Company failed to comply with any agreement or covenant.
Any investigation by such Investor Party shall be for its own protection only and shall not affect or impair any right or remedy hereunder.

 

To the extent that the foregoing
undertakings by the Company set forth in this Section 9.1 may be unenforceable for any reason, the Company shall make the maximum
contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Damages which is permissible under applicable law.

 

Section 9.2. Indemnification
Procedures. Promptly after an Investor Party receives notice of a claim or the commencement of an action for which the Investor
Party intends to seek indemnification under Section 9.1, the Investor Party will notify the Company in writing of the claim or commencement
of the action, suit or proceeding; provided, however, that failure to notify the Company will not relieve the
Company from liability under Section 9.1, except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by the failure to give notice. The
Company may (but will not be required to) assume the defense against the claim, action, suit or proceeding with counsel satisfactory to
it. After the Company notifies the Investor Party that the Company wishes to assume the defense of a claim, action, suit or proceeding,
the Company will not be liable for any further legal or other expenses incurred by the Investor Party in connection with the defense against
the claim, action, suit or proceeding except that if, in the opinion of counsel to the Investor Party, it would be inappropriate under
the applicable rules of professional responsibility for the same counsel to represent both the Company and such Investor Party. In such
event, the Company will pay the reasonable fees and expenses of no more than one separate counsel for all such Investor Parties promptly
as such fees and expenses are incurred. Each Investor Party, as a condition to receiving indemnification as provided in Section 9.1,
will cooperate in all reasonable respects with the Company in the defense of any action or claim as to which indemnification is sought.
The Company will not be liable for any settlement of any action effected without its prior written consent, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. The Company will not, without the prior written consent of the Investor Party, effect any
settlement of a pending or threatened action with respect to which an Investor Party is, or is informed that it may be, made a party and
for which it would be entitled to indemnification, unless the settlement includes an unconditional release of the Investor Party from
all liability and claims which are the subject matter of the pending or threatened action.

 

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

ARTICLE X

MISCELLANEOUS

 

Section 10.1. Certain
Fees and Expenses; Commitment Shares; Commencement Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions.

 

(i) Certain
Fees and Expenses. Each party shall bear its own fees and expenses related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however,
that the Company shall pay, on or prior to the Closing Date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated
by the Investor on or prior to the date of this Agreement, an aggregate amount up to $53,334 as reimbursement for the Investor’s
reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including the Investor’s legal fees and expenses), in connection with
the transaction contemplated by the Transaction Documents (the “Investor Expense Reimbursement”). For the avoidance
of doubt, the Investor Expense Reimbursement shall be non-refundable when paid on the Closing Date, regardless of whether any
Purchases are made or settled hereunder or any subsequent termination of this Agreement. The Company shall pay all U.S. federal, state
and local stamp and other similar transfer and other taxes and duties levied in connection with issuance of the Securities pursuant hereto.

 

(ii) Commitment
Shares. In consideration for the Investor’s execution and delivery of this Agreement, on the Commencement Date, the Company
shall deliver irrevocable instructions to its transfer agent to issue to the Investor, not later than 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on
the Trading Day immediately following the Commencement Date, one or more certificate(s) or book-entry statement(s) representing the Commitment
Shares in the name of the Investor or its designee (in which case such designee name shall have been provided to the Company prior to
the Commencement Date). Such certificate or book-entry statement shall be delivered to the Investor in the manner specified in Section 7.1(iii).
For the avoidance of doubt, all of the Commitment Shares shall be fully earned as of the Closing Date regardless of whether any Purchases
are issued by the Company or settled hereunder or any termination of this Agreement. Upon issuance, the Commitment Shares shall constitute
“restricted securities” as such term is defined in Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act and, subject to the provisions
of subsection (iv) of this Section 10.1, the certificate or book-entry statement representing the Commitment Shares shall bear
the restrictive legend set forth below in subsection (iii) of this Section 10.1. The Commitment Shares shall constitute Registrable
Securities and shall be included in the Initial Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, and the Prospectus included
therein and, if necessary to register the resale thereof by the Investor under the Securities Act, in any New Registration Statement and
any post-effective amendment thereto, in each case in accordance with this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement.

 

(iii) [Reserved.]

 

(iv) Irrevocable Transfer
Agent Instructions; Notice of Effectiveness. On the Effective Date of the Initial Registration Statement and prior to Commencement,
the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to its transfer agent (and thereafter, shall deliver or cause to be delivered to any
subsequent transfer agent of the Company), (i) irrevocable instructions executed by the Company and acknowledged in writing by the Company’s
transfer agent (the “Commencement Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions”) and (ii) the notice of effectiveness
in the form attached as an exhibit to the Registration Rights Agreement (the “Notice of Effectiveness”) relating
to the Initial Registration Statement executed by the Company’s outside counsel, in each case directing the Company’s transfer
agent to issue to the Investor or its designee all of the Commitment Shares and the Shares included in the Initial Registration Statement
as DWAC Shares in accordance with this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement. With respect to any post-effective amendment to
the Initial Registration Statement, any New Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment to any New Registration Statement,
in each case declared effective by the Commission after the Commencement Date, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to its
transfer agent (and thereafter, shall deliver or cause to be delivered to any subsequent transfer agent of the Company) (i) irrevocable
instructions in the form substantially similar to the Commencement Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions executed by the Company and
acknowledged in writing by the Company’s transfer agent and (ii) the Notice of Effectiveness, in each case modified as necessary
to refer to such Registration Statement or post-effective amendment and the Registrable Securities included therein, to issue the Registrable
Securities included therein as DWAC Shares in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement. For the
avoidance of doubt, all Shares and Commitment Shares to be issued from and after Commencement to or for the benefit of the Investor pursuant
to this Agreement shall be issued to the Investor or its designee only as DWAC Shares. The Company represents and warrants to the Investor
that, while this Agreement is effective, no instruction other than those referred to in this Section 10.1(iv) will be given by the
Company to its transfer agent, or any successor transfer agent of the Company, with respect to the Shares and the Commitment Shares from
and after Commencement, and the Shares and the Commitment Shares (as applicable) covered by the Initial Registration Statement or any
post-effective amendment thereof, or any New Registration Statement or post-effective amendment thereof, as applicable, shall otherwise
be freely transferable on the books and records of the Company and no stop transfer instructions shall be maintained against the transfer
thereof. The Company agrees that if the Company fails to fully comply with the provisions of this Section 10.1(iv) within five (5) Trading
Days after the date on which the Investor has provided the deliverables referred to above that the Investor is required to provide to
the Company or its transfer agent, the Company shall, at the Investor’s written instruction, purchase from the Investor all shares
of Common Stock purchased or acquired by the Investor pursuant to this Agreement that contain the restrictive legend referred to in Section 10.1(iii)
hereof (or any similar restrictive legend) at the greater of (i) the purchase price paid for such shares of Common Stock (as applicable)
and (ii) the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the date of the Investor’s written instruction.

 

    41

     

    

 

Section 10.2. Specific
Enforcement, Consent to Jurisdiction, Waiver of Jury Trial.

 

(i) The
Company and the Investor acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement
were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that either party shall
be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or cure breaches of the provisions of this Agreement by the other party and to
enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof (without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security
being required), this being in addition to any other remedy to which either party may be entitled by law or equity.

 

(ii) Each
of the Company and the Investor (a) hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of the U.S. District Court and other courts of
the United States sitting in the State of New York for the purposes of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Agreement, and (b) hereby waives, and agrees not to assert in any such suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally
subject to the jurisdiction of such court, that the suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of
the suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each of the Company and the Investor consents to process being served in any such suit, action
or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that
such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing in this Section 10.2 shall affect
or limit any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

 

(iii) EACH OF THE COMPANY
AND THE INVESTOR HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN
RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS
CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR DISPUTES RELATING HERETO. EACH OF THE COMPANY AND THE INVESTOR (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE,
AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF
LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN TO ENTER
INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 10.2.

 

Section 10.3. Entire
Agreement. The Transaction Documents set forth the entire agreement and understanding of the parties with respect to the subject
matter hereof and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, negotiations and understandings between the parties, both oral
and written, with respect to such matters. There are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by either party relative
to subject matter hereof not expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents. The Disclosure Schedule and all exhibits to this Agreement
are hereby incorporated by reference in, and made a part of, this Agreement as if set forth in full herein.

Section 10.8. Construction.
The parties agree that each of them and their respective counsel has reviewed and had an opportunity to revise the Transaction Documents
and, therefore, the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall
not be employed in the interpretation of the Transaction Documents. In addition, each and every reference to share prices and number of
shares of Common Stock in any Transaction Document shall, in all cases, be subject to adjustment for any stock splits, stock combinations,
stock dividends, recapitalizations, reorganizations and other similar transactions that occur on or after the date of this Agreement.
Any reference in this Agreement to “Dollars” or “$” shall mean the lawful currency of the United States of America.

of the parties hereto and their respective successors, and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any
other Person.

 

Section 10.11. Governing
Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal procedural and substantive laws of the

any other jurisdiction.

 

Section 10.12. Survival.
The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the Company and the Investor contained in this Agreement shall survive the
execution and delivery hereof until the termination of this Agreement; provided, however, that (i) the provisions
of Article V (Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Company), Article VIII (Termination), Article IX (Indemnification) and
this Article X (Miscellaneous) shall remain in full force and effect indefinitely notwithstanding such termination, and, (ii) so
long as the Investor owns any Securities, the covenants and agreements of the Company and the Investor contained in Article VI (Additional
Covenants), shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination for a period of six months following such termination.

 

    44

     

    

 

Section 10.13. Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and
shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party; provided that
a facsimile signature or signature delivered by e-mail in a “.pdf” format data file, including any electronic signature
complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, e.g., www.docusign.com, www.echosign.adobe.com, etc., shall be considered due execution
and shall be binding upon the signatory thereto with the same force and effect as if the signature were an original signature.

 

Section 10.14. Publicity.
The Company shall afford the Investor and its counsel with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon, shall consult with the
Investor and its counsel on the form and substance of, and shall give due consideration to all such comments from the Investor or its
counsel on, any press release, Commission filing or any other public disclosure made by or on behalf of the Company relating to the Investor,
its purchases hereunder or any aspect of the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby, prior to the issuance, filing
or public disclosure thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall not be required to submit for review any such disclosure (i) contained
in periodic reports filed with the Commission under the Exchange Act if it shall have previously provided the same disclosure to the Investor
or its counsel for review in connection with a previous filing or (ii) any Prospectus Supplement if it contains disclosure that does
not reference the Investor, its purchases hereunder or any aspect of the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby.
The Company agrees and acknowledges that its failure to comply with this provision in all material respects constitutes a Material Adverse
Effect for purposes of Section 7.2(xi). Except as may be required by applicable law, permitted pursuant to Section 6.12 of this
Agreement, or a “tombstone” advertisement on the Investor’s website, the Investor shall not make any public announcement
or disclosure regarding this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby without the prior written consent of the Company.

 

Section 10.15. Severability.
The provisions of this Agreement are severable and, in the event that any court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that any one
or more of the provisions or part of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal
or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or part of a provision
of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be reformed and construed as if such invalid or illegal or unenforceable provision, or part
of such provision, had never been contained herein, so that such provisions would be valid, legal and enforceable to the maximum extent
possible.

 

Section 10.16. Further
Assurances. From and after the Closing Date, upon the request of the Investor or the Company, each of the Company and the Investor
shall execute and deliver such instrument, documents and other writings as may be reasonably necessary or desirable to confirm and carry
out and to effectuate fully the intent and purposes of this Agreement.

on such other dates as required under the Securities Act or under interpretations by the SEC thereof), the Company shall prepare a Prospectus
Supplement, which will set forth the number of Purchase Shares sold to the Investor during such quarterly period (or other relevant period),
the purchase price for such Purchase Shares and the net proceeds received by the Company from such sales, and shall file such Prospectus
Supplement with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act (and within the time periods required by Rule 424(b) and Rule
430B under the Securities Act); provided, however, that if any such quarterly Prospectus Supplement is not required to be filed under
the Securities Act or under interpretations by the SEC thereof, the Company shall disclose the information referenced in the immediately
preceding sentence in its annual report on Form 20-F or its quarterly report on Form 10-Q (as applicable) in respect of the quarterly
period that ended immediately before the filing of such report in which sales of Purchase Shares were made to the Investor under the Purchase
Agreement, and file such report with the SEC within the applicable time period required by the Exchange Act. The Investor shall furnish
to the Company such information regarding itself, the Securities held by it and the intended method of distribution thereof as shall be
reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of any such amendment to the Registration Statement
(or new Registration Statement) or any such Prospectus Supplement, and shall otherwise cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested
by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of any such amendment to the Registration Statement (or new Registration
Statement) or any such Prospectus Supplement. The Company shall comply with all applicable federal, state and foreign securities laws
in connection with the offer, issuance and sale of the Securities contemplated by the Transaction Documents.

 

    4

     

    

 

(c)
Sufficient Number of Shares Registered. If at any time all Registrable Securities are not covered by the Registration
Statement, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the Commission one or more additional Registration Statements
so as to cover all of the Registrable Securities not covered by such Registration Statement, in each case, as soon as practicable (taking
into account any position of the staff of the Commission (“Staff”) with respect to the date on which the Staff
will permit such additional Registration Statement(s) to be filed with the Commission and the rules and regulations of the Commission)
(each such additional Registration Statement, a “New Registration Statement”), but in no event later than the
applicable Filing Deadline for such New Registration Statement(s). The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause
each such New Registration Statement to become effective as soon as reasonably practicable following the filing thereof with the Commission.

 

(d)
No Inclusion of Other Securities. In no event shall the Company include any securities other than Registrable Securities
on any Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2(a) or Section 2(c) without consulting the Investor prior to filing such Registration
Statement with the Commission.

 

(e) Offering. If the
Staff or the Commission seeks to characterize any offering pursuant to a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement as
constituting an offering of securities that does not permit such Registration Statement to become effective and be used for resales
by the Investor on a delayed or continuous basis under Rule 415 at then-prevailing market prices (and not fixed prices), or if after
the filing of any Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2(a) or Section 2(c), the Company is otherwise required by the Staff or
the Commission to reduce the number of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement, then the Company shall reduce
the number of Registrable Securities to be included in such Registration Statement (after consultation with the Investor and as to
the specific Registrable Securities to be removed therefrom) until such time as the Staff and the Commission shall so permit such
Registration Statement to become effective and be used as aforesaid. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if
after giving effect to the actions referred to in the immediately preceding sentence, the Staff or the Commission does not permit
such Registration Statement to become effective and be used for resales by the Investor on a delayed or continuous basis under Rule
415 at then-prevailing market prices (and not fixed prices), the Company shall not request acceleration of the Effective Date of
such Registration Statement, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than 48 hours) request the withdrawal of such
Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 477 under the Securities Act. In the event of any reduction in Registrable Securities
pursuant to this paragraph, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to file one or more New Registration
Statements with the Commission in accordance with Section 2(c) until such time as all Registrable Securities have been included in
Registration Statements that have been declared effective and the Prospectuses contained therein are available for use by the
Investor. Notwithstanding any provision herein or in the Purchase Agreement to the contrary, the Company’s obligations to
register Registrable Securities (and any related conditions to the Investor’s obligations) shall be qualified as necessary to
comport with any requirement of the Staff or the Commission as addressed in this Section 2(e).

 

(f)
 Statutory Underwriter Status. The Investor acknowledges that it will be disclosed as an “underwriter” and a
“selling stockholder” in each Registration Statement and in any Prospectus contained therein to the extent required by applicable
law and to the extent the Prospectus is related to the resale of Registrable Securities.

 

 3. Related Obligations.

 

The Company shall use its commercially
reasonable efforts to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof,
and, pursuant thereto, the Company shall have the following obligations:

 

(a)
Subject to Allowable Grace Periods, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to keep each Registration Statement effective
(and the Prospectus contained therein available for use) pursuant to Rule 415 for resales by the Investor on a continuous basis at then-prevailing
market prices (and not fixed prices) at all times until the earliest of (i) the date on which the Investor shall have sold all of the
Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement, (ii) the date that is 180 days after the effective date of the termination
of the Purchase Agreement in accordance with Article VIII of the Purchase Agreement, if as of such effective date the Investor holds any
Registrable Securities, and (iii) the effective date of the termination of the Purchase Agreement in accordance with Article VIII of the
Purchase Agreement, if as of such effective date the Investor holds no Registrable Securities (the “Registration Period”).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement (but subject to the provisions of Section 3(q) hereof), the Company
shall ensure that, when filed and at all times while effective, each Registration Statement (including, without limitation, all amendments
and supplements thereto) and the Prospectus (including, without limitation, all amendments and supplements thereto) used in connection
with such Registration Statement shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to
be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of Prospectuses, in the light of the circumstances in which
they were made) not misleading.

 

    5

     

    

 

(b) Subject to Section 3(q) of this Agreement,
the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file with the Commission such amendments (including,
without limitation, post-effective amendments) and supplements to each Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in connection
with each such Registration Statement, which Prospectus is to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the Securities Act, as
may be necessary to keep each such Registration Statement effective (and the Prospectus contained therein current and available for
use) at all times during the Registration Period for such Registration Statement, and, during such period, comply with the
provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities of the Company covered by such
Registration Statement until such time as all of such Registrable Securities shall have been disposed of in accordance with the
intended methods of disposition by the Investor as set forth in such Registration Statement. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Company covenants and agrees that (i) at or before 8:30 a.m. (New York City time) on the Trading Day immediately
following the Effective Date of any New Registration Statement (or any post-effective amendment thereto), the Company shall file
with the Commission in accordance with Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act the final Prospectus to be used in connection with sales
pursuant to such Registration Statement (or post-effective amendment thereto), and (ii) if the transactions contemplated by any
Purchase are material to the Company (individually or collectively with all other prior Purchases, the consummation of which have
not previously been reported in any Prospectus Supplement filed with the Commission under Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act or in
any report, statement or other document filed by the Company with the Commission under the Exchange Act), or if otherwise required
under the Securities Act (or the interpretations of the Commission thereof), in each case as reasonably determined by the Company,
then, at or before 5:30 p.m., New York City time, on the last Trading Day of the applicable Purchase Valuation Period for such
Purchase, the Company shall file with the Commission a Prospectus Supplement pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act with
respect to the applicable Purchase(s), disclosing the total number of Shares that are to be (and, if applicable, have been) issued
and sold to the Investor pursuant to such Purchase(s), the total purchase price for the Shares subject to such Purchase(s), the
applicable purchases price(s) for such Shares and the net proceeds that are to be (and, if applicable, have been) received by the
Company from the sale of such Shares. To the extent not previously disclosed in the Prospectus or a Prospectus Supplement, the
Company shall disclose in its Semi-annual Reports on Form 6-K and in its Annual Reports on Form 20-F the information described in
the immediately preceding sentence relating to all Purchase(s) consummated during the relevant fiscal quarter and shall file such
Quarterly Reports and Annual Reports with the Commission within the applicable time period prescribed for such report under the
Exchange Act. In the case of amendments and supplements to any Registration Statement on Form S-1 or Prospectus related thereto
which are required to be filed pursuant to this Agreement (including, without limitation, pursuant to this Section 3(b)) by reason
of the Company filing a report on Form 6-K or Form 20-F or any analogous report under the Exchange Act, the Company shall have
incorporated such report by reference into such Registration Statement and Prospectus, if applicable, or shall file such amendments
or supplements to the Registration Statement or Prospectus with the Commission on the same day on which the Exchange Act report is
filed which created the requirement for the Company to amend or supplement such Registration Statement or Prospectus, for the
purpose of including or incorporating such report into such Registration Statement and Prospectus. The Company consents to the use
of the Prospectus (including, without limitation, any supplement thereto) included in each Registration Statement in accordance with
the provisions of the Securities Act and with the securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the jurisdictions in which the
Registrable Securities may be sold by the Investor, in connection with the resale of the Registrable Securities and for such period
of time thereafter as such Prospectus (including, without limitation, any supplement thereto) (or in lieu thereof, the notice
referred to in Rule 173(a) under the Securities Act) is required by the Securities Act to be delivered in connection with resales of
Registrable Securities.

 

    6

     

    

 

(c)
The Company shall (A) permit Investor an opportunity to review and comment upon each Registration Statement and all amendments
and supplements thereto at least two (2) Business Days prior to its filing with the Commission and (B) shall reasonably consider any reasonable
comments of the Investor on any such Registration Statement or amendment or supplement thereto or to any Prospectus contained therein.
Investor shall use its reasonable best efforts to comment, upon any such Registration Statement or amendment or supplement thereto provided
by the Company within one (1) Business Day of receipt. The Company shall promptly furnish to Investor, without charge, electronic copies
of any correspondence from the Commission or the Staff to the Company or its representatives relating to each Registration Statement (which
correspondence shall be redacted to exclude any material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries).

 

(d)
Without limiting any obligation of the Company under the Purchase Agreement, the Company shall promptly furnish to the Investor,
without charge, (i) after the same is prepared and filed with the Commission, at least one (1) electronic copy of each Registration Statement
and any amendment(s) and supplement(s) thereto, including, without limitation, financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated
therein by reference, if requested by the Investor, all exhibits thereto, (ii) upon the effectiveness of each Registration Statement,
one (1) electronic copy of the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto and (iii)
such other documents, including, without limitation, copies of any final Prospectus and any Prospectus Supplement thereto, as the Investor
may reasonably request from time to time in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by the Investor; provided,
however, the Company shall not be required to furnish any document to the Investor to the extent such document is available on EDGAR).

 

(e) The Company shall take such action as is
reasonably necessary to (i) register and qualify, unless an exemption from registration and qualification applies, the resale by the
Investor of the Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement under such other securities or “Blue Sky”
laws of all applicable jurisdictions in the United States, (ii) prepare and file in those jurisdictions, such amendments (including,
without limitation, post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be necessary to
maintain the effectiveness thereof during the Registration Period, (iii) take such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to
maintain such registrations and qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration Period, and (iv) take all other
actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions; provided, however,
the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to (x) qualify to do business in any
jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 3(e), (y) subject itself to general taxation
in any such jurisdiction, or (z) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction. The Company shall promptly
notify the Investor of the receipt by the Company of any written notification with respect to the suspension of the registration or
qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale under the securities or “Blue Sky” laws of any jurisdiction
in the United States or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose.

 

    7

     

    

 

(f)
The Company shall notify the Investor in writing of the happening of any event, as promptly as reasonably practicable after becoming
aware of such event, as a result of which the Prospectus included in a Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement
of a material fact or omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in
the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (provided that in no event shall such notice contain any material,
non-public information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries), and, subject to Section 3(q), promptly prepare a supplement
or amendment to such Registration Statement and such Prospectus contained therein to correct such untrue statement or omission and deliver
one (1) electronic copy of such supplement or amendment to the Investor (or such other number of copies as the Investor may reasonably
request). The Company shall also promptly notify the Investor in writing (i) when a Prospectus or any Prospectus Supplement or post-effective
amendment has been filed, when a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment has become effective (notification of such effectiveness
shall be delivered to the Investor by facsimile or e-mail on the same day of such effectiveness), (ii) of any request by the Commission
for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or related Prospectus or related information, and (iii) of the Company’s
reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement would be appropriate. The Company shall respond as
promptly as reasonably practicable to any comments received from the Commission with respect to a Registration Statement or any amendment
thereto.

 

(g)
The Company shall (i) use its commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of
effectiveness of a Registration Statement or the use of any Prospectus contained therein, or the suspension of the qualification, or the
loss of an exemption from qualification, of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction and, if such an order or suspension
is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order or suspension at the earliest possible time and (ii) notify the Investor of the issuance
of such order and the resolution thereof or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threat of any proceeding.

 

(h) The Company shall hold in confidence
and not make any disclosure of information concerning the Investor provided to the Company unless (i) disclosure of such information
is necessary to comply with federal or state securities laws, (ii) the disclosure of such information is necessary to avoid or
correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement or is otherwise required to be disclosed in such Registration
Statement pursuant to the Securities Act, (iii) the release of such information is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other final,
non-appealable order from a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction, or (iv) such information has been made generally
available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. The Company
agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such information concerning the Investor is sought in or by a court or
governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt written notice to the Investor and allow the
Investor, at the Investor’s expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order
for, such information.

 

    8

     

    

 

(i)
Without limiting any obligation of the Company under the Purchase Agreement, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable
efforts either to (i) cause all of the Registrable Securities covered by each Registration Statement to be listed on the Trading Market,
and (ii) secure designation and quotation of all of the Registrable Securities covered by each Registration Statement on another Eligible
Market. In addition, the Company shall reasonably cooperate with the Investor and any Broker-Dealer through which the Investor proposes
to sell its Registrable Securities in effecting a filing with FINRA pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110 as requested by the Investor. The Company
shall pay all fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligation under this Section 3(i).

 

(j)
The Company shall cooperate with the Investor and, to the extent applicable, facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of
Registrable Securities, as DWAC Shares, to be offered pursuant to a Registration Statement and enable such DWAC Shares to be in such denominations
or amounts (as the case may be) as the Investor may reasonably request from time to time and registered in such names as the Investor
may request. Investor hereby agrees that it shall cooperate with the Company, its counsel and Transfer Agent in connection with any issuances
of the DWAC Shares, and hereby represents, warrants and covenants to the Company that that it will resell such Shares only pursuant to
the Registration Statement in which such DWAC Shares are included, in a manner described under the caption “Plan of Distribution”
in such Registration Statement, and in a manner in compliance with all applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws, rules and regulations,
including, without limitation, any applicable prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. DWAC Shares shall be free from all
restrictive legends (except as otherwise required by this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement or applicable federal or state securities
laws) and may be transmitted by the transfer agent to the Investor by crediting an account at DTC as directed in writing by the Investor.

 

(k)
Upon the written request of the Investor, the Company shall as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt of notice from the
Investor and subject to Section 3(p) hereof, (i) incorporate in a Prospectus Supplement or post-effective amendment such information as
the Investor reasonably requests to be included therein relating to the sale and distribution of Registrable Securities, including, without
limitation, information with respect to the number of Registrable Securities being offered or sold, the purchase price being paid therefor
and any other terms of the offering of the Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering; (ii) make all required filings of such
Prospectus Supplement or post-effective amendment after being notified of the matters to be incorporated in such Prospectus Supplement
or post-effective amendment; and (iii) supplement or make amendments to any Registration Statement or Prospectus contained therein if
reasonably requested by the Investor.

 

(l)
The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement
to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities in the United States as may be necessary to consummate
the disposition of such Registrable Securities.

 

    9

     

    

 

(m)
The Company shall make generally available to its security holders (which may be satisfied by making such information available
on EDGAR) as soon as practical, but not later than ninety (90) days after the close of the period covered thereby, an earnings statement
(in form complying with, and in the manner provided by, the provisions of Rule 158 under the Securities Act) covering a twelve-month period
beginning not later than the first day of the Company’s fiscal quarter next following the applicable Effective Date of each Registration
Statement.

 

(n)
The Company shall otherwise use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the
Commission in connection with any registration hereunder.

 

(o)
Within one (1) Business Day after each Registration Statement which covers Registrable Securities is declared effective by the
Commission, the Company shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel for the Company to deliver, to the transfer agent for such Registrable
Securities (with copies to the Investor) confirmation that such Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission in
the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.

 

(p) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein or in the Purchase Agreement (but subject to the last sentence of this Section 3(p)), at any time after the
Effective Date of a particular Registration Statement, the Company may, upon written notice to the Investor, suspend the
Investor’s use of any prospectus that is a part of any Registration Statement (in which event the Investor shall discontinue
sales of the Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement contemplated by this Agreement, but shall settle any
previously made sales of Registrable Securities) if the Company (x) is pursuing an acquisition, merger, tender offer,
reorganization, disposition or other similar transaction and the Company determines in good faith that (A) the Company’s
ability to pursue or consummate such a transaction would be materially adversely affected by any required disclosure of such
transaction in such Registration Statement or other registration statement or (B) such transaction renders the Company unable to
comply with Commission requirements, in each case under circumstances that would make it impractical or inadvisable to cause any
Registration Statement (or such filings) to be used by Investor or to promptly amend or supplement any Registration Statement
contemplated by this Agreement on a post effective basis, as applicable, or (y) has experienced some other material non-public event
the disclosure of which at such time, in the good faith judgment of the Company, would materially adversely affect the Company
(each, an “Allowable Grace Period”); provided, however, that in no event shall the Investor be
suspended from selling Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement for a period that exceeds 20 consecutive
Trading Days or an aggregate of 60 days in any 365-day period; and provided, further, the Company shall not effect any such
suspension during (A) the first 10 consecutive Trading Days after the Effective Date of the particular Registration Statement or (B)
the 10 consecutive Trading Day period following each Purchase Exercise Date. Upon disclosure of such information or the termination
of the condition described above, the Company shall provide prompt notice, but in any event within one Business Day of such
disclosure or termination, to the Investor and shall promptly terminate any suspension of sales it has put into effect and shall
take such other reasonable actions to permit registered sales of Registrable Securities as contemplated in this Agreement (including
as set forth in the first sentence of Section 3(f) with respect to the information giving rise thereto unless such material,
non-public information is no longer applicable). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3(p), the
Company shall cause its transfer agent to deliver DWAC Shares free from all restrictive legends (except as otherwise required by
this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement or applicable federal or state securities laws) to a transferee of the Investor in accordance
with the terms of the Purchase Agreement in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities with respect to which (i) the Company
has made a sale to Investor and (ii) the Investor has entered into a contract for sale, and delivered a copy of the Prospectus
included as part of the particular Registration Statement to the extent applicable, in each case prior to the Investor’s
receipt of the notice of an Allowable Grace Period and for which the Investor has not yet settled.

 

    10

     

    

 

 4. Obligations of the Investor.

 

(a)
At least five (5) Business Days prior to the first anticipated filing date of each Registration Statement (or such shorter period
to which the parties agree), the Company shall notify the Investor in writing of the information the Company requires from the Investor
with respect to such Registration Statement, and the Investor shall (i) promptly furnish to the Company such information regarding itself,
the Registrable Securities held by it and the intended method of disposition of such Registrable Securities, as shall be reasonably required
to effect and maintain the effectiveness of the registration of such Registrable Securities and (ii) promptly execute such documents in
connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request.

 

(b)
The Investor agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and
filing of each Registration Statement hereunder.

 

(c) The Investor agrees
that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(p) or the first
sentence of 3(f), the Investor shall immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration
Statement(s) covering such Registrable Securities until the Investor’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended
Prospectus contemplated by Section 3(p) or the first sentence of Section 3(f) or receipt of notice that no supplement or amendment
is required. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4(c), the Company shall cause its transfer agent to deliver
DWAC Shares, free from all restrictive legends (except as otherwise required by this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement or applicable
federal or state securities laws), to a transferee of the Investor in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement in
connection with any sale of Registrable Securities with respect to which the Investor has entered into a contract for sale prior to
the Investor’s receipt of a notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(p) or the
first sentence of Section 3(f) and for which the Investor has not yet settled.

 

(d)
The Investor covenants and agrees that it shall comply with the prospectus delivery and other requirements of the Securities Act
as applicable to it in connection with sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement.

 

 5. Expenses of Registration.

 

Except as provided under Section
9.1(i) of the Purchase Agreement, the Company shall have no obligation to reimburse the Investor for any expenses of the Investor incurred
in connection with registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant to Sections 2 and 3. All registration, listing and qualification
fees, printers and accounting fees incurred by the Company, and fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, shall be paid by the
Company.

 

    11

     

    

 

 6. Indemnification.

 

(a) In the event any Registrable Securities
are included in any Registration Statement under this Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company will, and
hereby does, indemnify, hold harmless and defend the Investor, each of its directors, officers, shareholders, members, partners,
employees, agents, advisors, representatives (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such
titles notwithstanding the lack of such title or any other title) and each Person, if any, who controls the Investor within the
meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act and each of the directors, officers, shareholders, members, partners, employees,
agents, advisors, representatives (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles
notwithstanding the lack of such title or any other title) of such controlling Persons (each, an “Investor
Party” and collectively, the “Investor Parties”), against any losses, obligations, claims,
damages, liabilities, contingencies, judgments, fines, penalties, charges, costs (including, without limitation, court costs,
reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs of defense and investigation), amounts paid in settlement or expenses, joint or several,
(collectively, “Claims”) reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim,
suit, inquiry, proceeding, investigation or appeal taken from the foregoing by or before any court or governmental, administrative
or other regulatory agency, body or the Commission, whether pending or threatened, whether or not an Investor Party is or may be a
party thereto (“Indemnified Damages”), to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims (or
actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in a Registration Statement or any post- effective amendment thereto or in
any filing made in connection with the qualification of the offering under the securities or other “Blue Sky” laws of
any jurisdiction in which Registrable Securities are offered (“Blue Sky Filing”), or the omission or
alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading
or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Prospectus (as amended or supplemented)
or in any Prospectus Supplement or the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary to make the
statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading (the matters in
the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) being, collectively, “Violations”). Subject to Section 6(c), the
Company shall reimburse the Investor Parties, promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any legal fees or
other reasonable expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(a): (i) shall not apply to a Claim by an
Investor Party arising out of or based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished
in writing to the Company by such Investor Party for such Investor Party expressly for use in connection with the preparation of
such Registration Statement, Prospectus or Prospectus Supplement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto (it being
hereby acknowledged and agreed that the written information set forth on Exhibit C attached hereto is the only written
information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the Investor expressly for use in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or
Prospectus Supplement); (ii) shall not be available to the Investor to the extent such Claim is based on a failure of the Investor
to deliver or to cause to be delivered the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented) made available by the Company (to the extent
applicable), including, without limitation, a corrected Prospectus, if such Prospectus (as amended or supplemented) or corrected
Prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(d) and then only if, and to the extent that, following the
receipt of the corrected Prospectus no grounds for such Claim would have existed; and (iii) shall not apply to amounts paid in
settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on
behalf of the Investor Party and shall survive the transfer of any of the Registrable Securities by the Investor pursuant to Section
9.

 

    12

     

    

 

(b)
 In connection with any Registration Statement in which the Investor is participating, the Investor agrees to severally and not
jointly indemnify, hold harmless and defend, to the same extent and in the same manner as is set forth in Section 6(a), the Company, each
of its directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the
meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each, an “Company Party”), against any Claim or Indemnified
Damages to which any of them may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such Claim or Indemnified
Damages arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case, to the extent, and only to the extent, that such Violation occurs
in reliance upon and in conformity with written information relating to the Investor furnished to the Company by the Investor expressly
for use in connection with such Registration Statement, the Prospectus included therein or any Prospectus Supplement thereto (it being
hereby acknowledged and agreed that the written information set forth on Exhibit C attached hereto is the only written information
furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the Investor expressly for use in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or Prospectus Supplement);
and, subject to Section 6(c) and the below provisos in this Section 6(b), the Investor shall reimburse a Company Party any legal or other
expenses reasonably incurred by such Company Party in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim; provided, however,
the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 6(b) and the agreement with respect to contribution contained in Section 7 shall not
apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Investor, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; and provided, further that the Investor shall be liable under this Section 6(b)
for only that amount of a Claim or Indemnified Damages as does not exceed the net proceeds to the Investor as a result of the applicable
sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement, Prospectus or Prospectus Supplement. Such indemnity shall remain
in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Company Party and shall survive the transfer of
any of the Registrable Securities by the Investor pursuant to Section 9.

 

(c) Promptly after receipt by an Investor Party
or Company Party (as the case may be) under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including, without
limitation, any governmental action or proceeding) involving a Claim, such Investor Party or Company Party (as the case may be) shall,
if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 6, deliver to the indemnifying party a
written notice of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the
indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof
with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Investor Party or the Company Party (as the case may be); provided,
however, an Investor Party or Company Party (as the case may be) shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the fees
and expenses of such counsel to be paid by the indemnifying party if: (i) the indemnifying party has agreed in writing to pay such fees
and expenses; (ii) the indemnifying party shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such Claim and to employ counsel reasonably
satisfactory to such Investor Party or Company Party (as the case may be) in any such Claim; or (iii) the named parties to any such Claim
(including, without limitation, any impleaded parties) include both such Investor Party or Company Party (as the case may be) and the
indemnifying party, and such Investor Party or such Company Party (as the case may be) shall have been advised by counsel that a conflict
of interest is likely to exist if the same counsel were to represent such Investor Party or such Company Party and the indemnifying party
(in which case, if such Investor Party or such Company Party (as the case may be) notifies the indemnifying party in writing that it
elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, then the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume
the defense thereof on behalf of the indemnified party and such counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party, provided further
that in the case of clause (iii) above the indemnifying party shall not be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than
one (1) separate legal counsel for all Investor Parties or Company Parties (as the case may be). The Company Party or Investor Party
(as the case may be) shall reasonably cooperate with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such
action or Claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Company
Party or Investor Party (as the case may be) which relates to such action or Claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the Company Party
or Investor Party (as the case may be) reasonably apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations
with respect thereto. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its
prior written consent; provided, however, the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent.
No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the Company Party or Investor Party (as the case may be), consent to
entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving
by the claimant or plaintiff to such Company Party or Investor Party (as the case may be) of a release from all liability in respect
to such Claim or litigation, and such settlement shall not include any admission as to fault on the part of the Company Party. For the
avoidance of doubt, the immediately preceding sentence shall apply to Sections 6(a) and 6(b) hereof. Following indemnification as provided
for hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Company Party or Investor Party (as the case may be) with
respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver
written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying
party of any liability to the Investor Party or Company Party (as the case may be) under this Section 6, except to the extent that the
indemnifying party is materially and adversely prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.

(d)
No Person involved in the sale of Registrable Securities who is guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section
11(f) of the Securities Act) in connection with such sale shall be entitled to indemnification from any Person involved in such sale of
Registrable Securities who is not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation.

 

(e) The indemnification
required by this Section 6 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or
defense, as and when bills are received or Indemnified Damages are incurred; provided that any Person receiving any payment pursuant
to this Section 6 shall promptly reimburse the Person making such payment for the amount of such payment to the extent a court of
competent jurisdiction determines that such Person receiving such payment was not entitled to such payment.

 

(f)
The indemnity and contribution agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (i) any cause of action or similar right of
the Company Party or Investor Party against the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject
to pursuant to the law.

 

7.
Contribution.

 

To the extent any indemnification
by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited by law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect
to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 6 to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however:
(i) no contribution shall be made under circumstances where the maker would not have been liable for indemnification under the fault standards
set forth in Section 6 of this Agreement, (ii) no Person involved in the sale of Registrable Securities which Person is guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) in connection with such sale shall be entitled to contribution
from any Person involved in such sale of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation; and (iii) contribution
by any seller of Registrable Securities shall be limited in amount to the amount of net proceeds received by such seller from the applicable
sale of such Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, the Investor
shall not be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds actually received
by the Investor from the applicable sale of the Registrable Securities subject to the Claim exceeds the amount of any damages that the
Investor has otherwise been required to pay, or would otherwise be required to pay under Section 6(b), by reason of such untrue or alleged
untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

 

8.
Reports Under the Exchange Act.

 

With a view to making available to the Investor the benefits
of Rule 144, the Company agrees to:

 

 (a) use its reasonable best efforts to make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144;

 

(b)
use its reasonable best efforts to file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the
Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act so long as the Company remains subject to such requirements (it being understood
that nothing herein shall limit any of the Company’s obligations under the Purchase Agreement) and the filing of such reports and
other documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144;

 

(c) furnish to the Investor so long as the
Investor owns Registrable Securities, promptly upon request, (i) a written statement by the Company, if true, that it has complied
with the reporting, submission and posting requirements of Rule 144 and the Exchange Act, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or
quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company with the Commission if such reports are
not publicly available via EDGAR, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested to permit the Investor to sell
such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration; and

 

    14

     

    

 

(d)
take such additional action as is reasonably requested by the Investor to enable the Investor to sell the Registrable Securities
pursuant to Rule 144, including, without limitation, delivering all such legal opinions, consents, certificates, resolutions and instructions
to the Company’s Transfer Agent as may be reasonably requested from time to time by the Investor and otherwise fully cooperate with
Investor and Investor’s broker to effect such sale of securities pursuant to Rule 144.

 

 9. Assignment of Registration Rights.

 

Neither the Company nor the Investor
shall assign this Agreement or any of their respective rights or obligations hereunder; provided, that any transaction, whether by merger,
reorganization, restructuring, consolidation, financing or otherwise, whereby the Company remains the surviving entity immediately after
such transaction shall not be deemed an assignment.

 

 10. Amendment or Waiver.

 

No provision of this Agreement
may be amended or waived by the parties from and after the date that is one (1) Trading Day immediately preceding the filing of the Initial
Prospectus Supplement with the Commission. Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, no provision of this Agreement may be (i) amended
other than by a written instrument signed by both parties hereto or (ii) waived other than in a written instrument signed by the party
against whom enforcement of such waiver is sought. Failure of any party to exercise any right or remedy under this Agreement or otherwise,
or delay by a party in exercising such right or remedy, shall not operate as a waiver thereof.

 

 11. Miscellaneous.

 

(a)
Solely for purposes of this Agreement, a Person is deemed to be a holder of Registrable Securities whenever such Person owns or
is deemed to own of record such Registrable Securities. If the Company receives conflicting instructions, notices or elections from two
or more Persons with respect to the same Registrable Securities, the Company shall act upon the basis of instructions, notice or election
received from such record owner of such Registrable Securities.

 

(b)
Any notices, consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Agreement shall
be given in accordance with Section 10.4 of the Purchase Agreement.

 

(c)
The Company and the Investor acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions
of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that
either party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or cure breaches of the provisions of this Agreement by the
other party and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof (without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any
bond or other security being required), this being in addition to any other remedy to which either party may be entitled by law or equity.

 

    15

     

    

 

(d)
All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the
internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the
State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of
New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal courts sitting in The City of New York, for
the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and
hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to
the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such
suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being
served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under this
Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein
shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. If any provision of this Agreement shall
be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of
the remainder of this Agreement in that jurisdiction or the validity or enforceability of any provision of this Agreement in any other
jurisdiction. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION
OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

 

(e)
The Transaction Documents set forth the entire agreement and understanding of the parties solely with respect to the subject matter
thereof and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, negotiations and understandings between the parties, both oral and written,
solely with respect to such matters. There are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by either party relative to the
subject matter hereof not expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary
and without implication that the contrary would otherwise be true, nothing contained in this Agreement shall limit, modify or affect in
any manner whatsoever (i) the conditions precedent to a Purchase contained in Article VII of the Purchase Agreement or (ii) any of the
Company’s obligations under the Purchase Agreement.

 

(f)
This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors. This Agreement
is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any Person, other than the parties hereto, their respective successors
and the Persons referred to in Sections 6 and 7 hereof (and in such case, solely for the purposes set forth therein).

 

    16

     

    

 

(g) The headings in this Agreement are for
convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof. Unless the context clearly indicates
otherwise, each pronoun herein shall be deemed to include the masculine, feminine, neuter, singular and plural forms thereof. The
terms “including,” “includes,” “include” and words of like import shall be construed broadly as
if followed by the words “without limitation.” The terms “herein,” “hereunder,”
“hereof” and words of like import refer to this entire Agreement instead of just the provision in which they are
found.

 

(h)
This Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement
and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party; provided that a facsimile
signature or signature delivered by e-mail in a “.pdf” format data file, including any electronic signature complying with
the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, e.g., www.docusign.com, www.echosign.adobe.com, etc., shall be considered due execution and shall
be binding upon the signatory thereto with the same force and effect as if the signature were an original signature.

 

(i)
Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver
all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents as any other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the
intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

 

(j)
The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent and
no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party.

 

 12. Termination.

 

This Agreement shall terminate
in its entirety upon the earlier of (i) the date on which the Investor shall have sold all the Registrable Securities and (ii) 180 days
following the date of termination of the Purchase Agreement; provided, that the provisions of Sections 4, 6, 7, 9, 10 and 11 shall remain
in full force and effect.
