U.S

Dated

U.S. Gold Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), has entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated
August [__], 2020 with the purchasers identified on the signature pages thereto for the sale of Securities (as defined in the
Purchase Agreement), including warrants to purchase Common Stock (as amended and in effect from time to time, the “Purchase
Agreement”);

 

WHEREAS,
pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to issue to [_____________________], or its designees (the “Warrantholder”)
this Warrant Agreement, evidencing the right to purchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock (this “Warrant”,
“Warrant Agreement”, or this “Agreement”);

 

NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the Warrantholder having executed and delivered the Purchase Agreement and provided the financial
accommodations contemplated therein, and in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, the Company
and Warrantholder agree as follows:

 

SECTION
1. GRANT OF THE RIGHT TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK. 

 

For
value received, the Company hereby grants to the Warrantholder, and the Warrantholder is entitled, upon the terms and subject
to the conditions hereinafter set forth, to subscribe for and purchase, from the Company, up to [_____________] shares of Common
Stock, at a purchase price per share of $6.00 (the “Exercise Price”). The number and Exercise Price of such
shares are subject to adjustment as provided in Section 8. As used herein, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

 

“Act”
means the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

“Charter”
means the Company’s Articles of Incorporation or other constitutional document, as may be amended and in effect from time
to time.

 

“Common
Stock” means the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share, as presently constituted under the Charter,
and any class and/or series of Company capital stock for or into which such common stock may be converted or exchanged in a reorganization,
recapitalization or similar transaction.

 

    	 

     

    

 

“Liquid
Sale” means the closing of a Merger Event in which the consideration received by the Company and/or its stockholders,
as applicable, consists solely of cash and/or Marketable Securities.

 

“Marketable
Securities” in connection with a Merger Event means securities meeting all of the following requirements: (i) the issuer
thereof is then subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the “Exchange Act”), and is then current in its filing of all required reports and other information
under the Act and the Exchange Act; (ii) the class and series of shares or other security of the issuer that would be received
by the Warrantholder in connection with the Merger Event were the Warrantholder to exercise this Warrant on or prior to the closing
thereof is then traded on a national securities exchange or over-the-counter market, and (iii) following the closing of such Merger
Event, Warrantholder would not be restricted from publicly re-selling all of the issuer’s shares and/or other securities
that would be received by Warrantholder in such Merger Event were Warrantholder to exercise this Warrant in full on or prior to
the closing of such Merger Event, except to the extent that any such restriction (x) arises solely under federal or state securities
laws, rules or regulations, and (y) does not extend beyond six (6) months from the closing of such Merger Event.

 

“Merger
Event” means any of the following: (i) a sale, lease or other transfer of all or substantially all assets of the Company,
(ii) any merger or consolidation involving the Company in which the Company is not the surviving entity or in which the outstanding
shares of the Company’s capital stock are otherwise converted into or exchanged for shares of capital stock or other securities
or property of another entity, or (iii) any sale by holders of the outstanding voting equity securities of the Company in a single
transaction or series of related transactions of shares constituting a majority of the outstanding combined voting power of the
Company.

 

“Purchase
Price” means, with respect to any exercise of this Warrant, an amount equal to the then-effective Exercise Price multiplied
by the number of shares of Common Stock as to which this Warrant is then exercised.

 

SECTION
2. TERM OF THE AGREEMENT. 

 

The
term of this Agreement and the right to purchase Common Stock as granted herein shall commence on the Effective Date and, subject
to Section 8(a) below, shall be exercisable for a period ending upon the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Effective Date.

 

SECTION
3. EXERCISE OF THE PURCHASE RIGHTS. 

 

(a)
Exercise. The purchase rights set forth in this Agreement are exercisable by the Warrantholder, in whole or in part, at
any time, or from time to time, subject to Section 3(b), prior to the expiration of the term set forth in Section 2, by tendering
to the Company at its principal office a notice of exercise in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I (the “Notice
of Exercise”), duly completed and executed. Promptly upon receipt of the Notice of Exercise and the payment of the Purchase
Price in accordance with the terms set forth below, and in no event later than two (2) business days thereafter, the Company or
its transfer agent shall, at the direction of the Warrantholder, either (i) issue to the Warrantholder a certificate for the number
of shares of Common Stock purchased, or (ii) credit the same to the Warrantholder no later than the second (2nd) trading
day following the Company’s receipt of the Notice of Exercise, and shall execute the acknowledgment of exercise in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit II (the “Acknowledgment of Exercise”) indicating the number of shares which
remain subject to future purchases under this Warrant, if any.

 

    	2

     

    

 

The
Purchase Price may be paid at the Warrantholder’s election either (i) by cash or check, or (ii), if at the time of exercise
hereof there is no effective registration statement registering, or the prospectus contained therein is not available for the
issuance of the Warrant Shares to the Warrantholder, by surrender of all or a portion of the Warrant for shares of Common Stock
to be exercised under this Agreement and, if applicable, an amended Agreement setting forth the remaining number of shares purchasable
hereunder, as determined below (“Net Issuance”). If the Warrantholder elects the Net Issuance method, and such
an exercise is permitted hereunder, the Company will issue shares of Common Stock in accordance with the following formula:

 

X
= Y(A-B)

A

 

	Where:	X
    = the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Warrantholder.
	 	 
	 	Y
    = the number of shares of Common Stock requested to be exercised under this Agreement.
	 	 
	 	A
    = the then-current fair market value of one (1) shares of Common Stock at the time of exercise.
	 	 
	 	B
    = the then-effective Exercise Price.

 

For
purposes of the above calculation, the current fair market value of shares of Common Stock shall mean with respect to each shares
of Common Stock:

 

(i)
at all times when the Common Stock shall be traded on a national securities exchange, inter-dealer quotation system or over-the-counter
bulletin board service, the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date
on which Warrantholder elects to exercise this Warrant by means of a Net Issuance, as set forth in the applicable Notice of Exercise;

 

(ii)
if the exercise is in connection with a Merger Event, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be the
per share value received by the holders of the outstanding shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Merger Event as determined
in accordance with the definitive transaction documents executed among the parties in connection therewith; or

 

(iii)
in cases other than as described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the current fair market value of a share of Common Stock
shall be determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors.

 

Upon
partial exercise by either cash or, upon request by the Warrantholder and surrender of all or a portion of this Warrant, Net Issuance,
prior to the expiration or earlier termination hereof, the Company shall promptly issue an amended Agreement representing the
remaining number of shares purchasable hereunder. All other terms and conditions of such amended Agreement shall be identical
to those contained herein, including, but not limited to the Effective Date hereof.

 

    	3

     

    

 

(b)
Exchange Cap. The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and the Warrantholder shall not have the right
to exercise any portion of this Warrant, to the extent that, after giving effect to the exercise set forth on the applicable Notice
of Exercise, such Warrantholder (together with any Securities issued to the Warrantholder under the Purchase Agreement) would
exceed the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock which the Company may issue without breaching the Company’s obligations
under the rules or regulations of the Nasdaq Capital Market (the number of shares which may be issued without violating such rules
and regulations, the “Exchange Cap”). Until the appropriate approval of the Company’s stockholders is
obtained, no Warrantholder shall be issued in the aggregate, upon exercise of this Warrant (together with any shares Securities
issued to the Warrantholder under the Purchase Agreement), Common Stock in an amount greater than the product of the Exchange
Cap multiplied by its pro rata share (based on the relative number of such shares Preferred Stock issued to each Holder).

 

SECTION
4. RESERVATION OF SHARES. 

 

During
the term of this Agreement, the Company will at all times have authorized and reserved a sufficient number of shares of Common
Stock to provide for the exercise of the rights to purchase Common Stock as provided for herein.

 

SECTION
5. NO FRACTIONAL SHARES OR SCRIP. 

 

No
fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Agreement, but in lieu of
such fractional shares the Company shall make a cash payment therefor upon the basis of the Exercise Price then in effect.

 

SECTION
6. NO RIGHTS AS STOCKHOLDER.

 

Without
limitation of any provision hereof, Warrantholder agrees that this Agreement does not entitle the Warrantholder to any voting
rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise of any of the purchase rights set forth in this Agreement.

 

SECTION
7. WARRANTHOLDER REGISTRY. 

 

The
Company shall maintain a registry showing the name and address of the registered holder of this Agreement. Warrantholder’s
initial address, for purposes of such registry, is set forth in Section 12(f) below. Warrantholder may change such address by
giving written notice of such changed address to the Company.

 

SECTION
8. ADJUSTMENT RIGHTS. 

 

The
Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder are subject to adjustment from time to time, as
follows:

 

(a)
Merger Event. In connection with a Merger Event that is a Liquid Sale, this Warrant shall, on and after the closing thereof,
automatically and without further action on the part of any party or other person, represent the right to receive the consideration
payable on or in respect of all shares of Common Stock that are issuable hereunder as of immediately prior to the closing of such
Merger Event less the Purchase Price for all such shares of Common Stock (such consideration to include both the consideration
payable at the closing of such Merger Event and all deferred consideration payable thereafter, if any, including, but not limited
to, payments of amounts deposited at such closing into escrow and payments in the nature of earn-outs, milestone payments or other
performance-based payments), and such Merger Event consideration shall be paid to Warrantholder as and when it is paid to the
holders of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. In connection with a Merger Event that is not a Liquid Sale, the Company shall
cause the successor or surviving entity to assume this Warrant and the obligations of the Company hereunder on the closing thereof,
and thereafter this Warrant shall be exercisable for the same number and type of securities or other property as the Warrantholder
would have received in consideration for the shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder had it exercised this Warrant in full as
of immediately prior to such closing, at an aggregate Exercise Price no greater than the aggregate Exercise Price in effect as
of immediately prior to such closing, and subject to further adjustment from time to time in accordance with the provisions of
this Warrant. The provisions of this Section 8(a) shall similarly apply to successive Merger Events.

 

    	4

     

    

 

(b)
Reclassification of Shares. Except for Merger Events subject to Section 8(a), if the Company at any time shall, by combination,
reclassification, exchange or subdivision of securities or otherwise, change any of the securities as to which purchase rights
under this Agreement exist into the same or a different number of securities of any other class or classes of securities, this
Agreement shall thereafter represent the right to acquire such number and kind of securities as would have been issuable as the
result of such change with respect to the securities which were subject to the purchase rights under this Agreement immediately
prior to such combination, reclassification, exchange, subdivision or other change. The provisions of this Section 8(b) shall
similarly apply to successive combination, reclassification, exchange, subdivision or other change.

 

(c)
Subdivision or Combination of Shares. If the Company at any time shall combine or subdivide its Common Stock, (i) in the
case of a subdivision, the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased and the number of shares for which this Warrant is
exercisable shall be proportionately increased, or (ii) in the case of a combination, the Exercise Price shall be proportionately
increased and the number of shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be proportionately decreased.

 

(d)
Stock Dividends. If the Company at any time while this Agreement is outstanding and unexpired shall:

 

(i)
pay a dividend with respect to the outstanding shares of Common Stock payable in additional shares of Common Stock, then the Exercise
Price shall be adjusted, from and after the date of determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution,
to that price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such date of determination by a fraction
(A) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such dividend
or distribution, and (B) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
after such dividend or distribution, and the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be proportionately
increased; or

 

(ii)
make any other dividend or distribution on or with respect to Common Stock, except any dividend or distribution (A) in cash, or
(B) specifically provided for in any other clause of this Section 8, then, in each such case, provision shall be made by the Company
such that the Warrantholder shall receive upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant a proportionate share of any such distribution
as though it were the holder of the Common Stock (or other stock for which the Common Stock is convertible) as of the record date
fixed for the determination of the stockholders of the Company entitled to receive such distribution.

 

(e)
Notice of Certain Events. If: (i) the Company shall declare any dividend or distribution upon its outstanding Common Stock,
payable in stock, cash, property or other securities; (ii) the Company shall offer for subscription pro rata to the holders of
its Common Stock any additional shares of capital stock of any class or other rights; (iii) there shall be any Merger Event; or
(iv) there shall be any voluntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company; then, in connection with each such event,
the Company shall give the Warrantholder notice thereof at the same time and in the same manner as it gives notice thereof to
the holders of outstanding Common Stock.

SECTION
9. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY.

 

(a)
Reservation of Common Stock. The Company covenants and agrees that all Warrant Shares that may be issued upon the exercise
of the rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance, be validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and non-assessable.
The Company further covenants and agrees that the Company will, at all times during the term hereof, have authorized and reserved,
free from preemptive rights, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the exercise of the rights represented
by this Warrant. If at any time during the term hereof the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not
be sufficient to permit exercise of this Warrant in full, the Company will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of
its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be
sufficient for such purposes.

 

(b)
Due Authority. The execution and delivery by the Company of this Agreement and the performance of all obligations of the
Company hereunder, including the issuance to Warrantholder of the right to acquire the shares of Common Stock, have been duly
authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company. This Agreement: (1) does not violate the Company’s
Charter or current bylaws; (2) does not contravene any law or governmental rule, regulation or order applicable to it; and (3)
except as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), does not
and will not contravene any provision of, or constitute a default under, any indenture, mortgage, contract or other instrument
to which it is a party or by which it is bound. This Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of the Company,
enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar
laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally (including, without limitation, fraudulent conveyance laws) and
by general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

 

(c)
Consents and Approvals. No consent or approval of, giving of notice to, registration with, or taking of any other action
in respect of any state, federal or other governmental authority or agency is required with respect to the execution, delivery
and performance by the Company of its obligations under this Agreement, except for the filing of notices pursuant to Regulation
D under the Act and any filing required by applicable state securities law, which filings will be effective by the time required
thereby.

 

(d)
Exempt Transaction. Subject to the accuracy of the Warrantholder’s representations in Section 10, the issuance of
the Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Agreement will constitute a transaction exempt from (i) the registration requirements
of Section 5 of the Act, in reliance upon Section 4(2) thereof, and (ii) the qualification requirements of the applicable state
securities laws.

 

    	6

     

    

 

SECTION
10. REPRESENTATIONS AND COVENANTS OF THE WARRANTHOLDER. 

 

This
Agreement has been entered into by the Company in reliance upon the following representations and covenants of the Warrantholder:

 

(a)
Investment Purpose. This Warrant and the shares issued on exercise hereof will be acquired for investment and not with
a view to the sale or distribution of any part thereof in violation of applicable federal and state securities laws, and the Warrantholder
has no present intention of selling or engaging in any public distribution of the same except pursuant to a registration or exemption.

 

(b)
Private Issue. The Warrantholder understands (i) that the Warrant Shares are not, as of the Effective Date, registered
under the Act or qualified under applicable state securities laws, and (ii) that the Company’s reliance on exemption from
such registration is predicated on the representations set forth in this Section 10.

 

(c)

of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment, and has the ability to bear the economic risks of its investment.

 

(d)
Accredited Investor. Warrantholder is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation
D promulgated under the Act, as presently in effect (“Regulation D”).

 

SECTION
11. TRANSFERS.

 

Subject
to compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws, this Agreement and all rights hereunder are transferable, in
whole or in part, without charge to the holder hereof (except for transfer taxes) upon surrender of this Agreement properly endorsed.
Each taker and holder of this Agreement, by taking or holding the same, consents and agrees that this Agreement, when endorsed
in blank, shall be deemed negotiable, and that the holder hereof, when this Agreement shall have been so endorsed and its transfer
recorded on the Company’s books, shall be treated by the Company and all other persons dealing with this Agreement as the
absolute owner hereof for any purpose and as the person entitled to exercise the rights represented by this Agreement. The transfer
of this Agreement shall be recorded on the books of the Company upon receipt by the Company of a notice of transfer in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit III (the “Transfer Notice”), at its principal offices and the payment to the Company
of all transfer taxes and other governmental charges imposed on such transfer. Until the Company receives such Transfer Notice,
the Company may treat the registered owner hereof as the owner for all purposes.

 

SECTION
12. MISCELLANEOUS.

either by suit in equity and/or by action at law, including but not limited to an action for damages as a result of any such default,
and/or an action for specific performance for any default where Warrantholder will not have an adequate remedy at law and where
damages will not be readily ascertainable.

 

(c)
No Impairment of Rights. The Company will not, by amendment of its Charter or through any other means, avoid or seek to
avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Agreement, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying
out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights
of the Warrantholder against impairment.

 

(d)
Additional Documents. The Company agrees to supply such other documents as the Warrantholder may from time to time reasonably
request.

 

    	7

     

    

 

(e)
Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall for any reason be held invalid, illegal
or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall be unimpaired, and the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision
shall be replaced by a mutually acceptable valid, legal and enforceable provision, which comes closest to the intention of the
parties underlying the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.

 

(f)

or
to such other address as each party may designate for itself by like notice.

 

(g)
Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in
respect of the subject matter hereof, and supersedes and replaces in their entirety any prior proposals, term sheets, letters,
negotiations or other documents or agreements, whether written or oral, with respect to the subject matter hereof. None of the
terms of this Agreement may be amended except by an instrument executed by each of the parties hereto.

 

(h)
Headings. The various headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or
interpretation of this Agreement or any provisions hereof.

 

(i)
Advice of Counsel. Each of the parties represents to each other party hereto that it has discussed (or had an opportunity
to discuss) with its counsel this Agreement and, specifically, the provisions of Sections 12(m), 12(n), 12(o).

 

(j)
No Strict Construction. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement.
In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly
by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship
of any provisions of this Agreement.

 

(k)
No Waiver. No omission or delay by Warrantholder at any time to enforce any right or remedy reserved to it, or to require
performance of any of the terms, covenants or provisions hereof by the Company at any time designated, shall be a waiver of any
such right or remedy to which Warrantholder is entitled, nor shall it in any way affect the right of Warrantholder to enforce
such provisions thereafter.

 

    	8

     

    

 

(l)
Survival. All agreements, representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any document delivered pursuant
hereto shall be for the benefit of Warrantholder and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement in accordance
with their terms.

 

(m)
Governing Law. This Agreement has been negotiated and delivered to Warrantholder in the State of Nevada, and shall be deemed
to have been accepted by Warrantholder in the State of Nevada. Delivery of shares of Common Stock to Warrantholder by the Company
under this Agreement is due in the State of Nevada. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance
with, the laws of the State of Nevada, excluding conflict of laws principles that would cause the application of laws of any other
jurisdiction.

 

(n)
Consent to Jurisdiction and Venue. All judicial proceedings arising in or under or related to this Agreement may be brought
in any state or federal court of competent jurisdiction located in the State of Nevada. By execution and delivery of this Agreement,
each party hereto generally and unconditionally: (a) consents to personal jurisdiction in Las Vegas, Nevada; (b) waives any objection
as to jurisdiction or venue in Las Vegas, Nevada; (c) agrees not to assert any defense based on lack of jurisdiction or venue
in the aforesaid courts; and (d) irrevocably agrees to be bound by any judgment rendered thereby in connection with this Agreement.
Service of process on any party hereto in any action arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be effective if given
in accordance with the requirements for notice set forth in Section 12(f), and shall be deemed effective and received as set forth
in Section 12(f). Nothing herein shall affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the
right of either party to bring proceedings in the courts of any other jurisdiction.

 

(o)
Mutual Waiver of Jury Trial. Because disputes arising in connection with complex financial transactions are most quickly
and economically resolved by an experienced and expert person and the parties wish applicable state and federal laws to apply
(rather than arbitration rules), the parties desire that their disputes arising under or in connection with this Warrant be resolved
by a judge applying such applicable laws. EACH OF THE COMPANY AND WARRANTHOLDER SPECIFICALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO TRIAL
BY JURY OF ANY CAUSE OF ACTION, CLAIM, CROSS-CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM, THIRD PARTY CLAIM OR ANY OTHER CLAIM (COLLECTIVELY, “CLAIMS”)
ASSERTED BY THE COMPANY AGAINST WARRANTHOLDER OR ITS ASSIGNEE OR BY WARRANTHOLDER OR ITS ASSIGNEE AGAINST THE COMPANY RELATING
TO THIS WARRANT. This waiver extends to all such Claims, including Claims that involve persons or entities other the Company and
Warrantholder; Claims that arise out of or are in any way connected to the relationship between the Company and Warrantholder;
and any Claims for damages, breach of contract, specific performance, or any equitable or legal relief of any kind, arising out
of this Agreement.

 

(p)
Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto may be executed in any number
of counterparts (including by facsimile or electronic delivery (PDF), and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts,
each of which when so delivered shall be deemed an original, but all of which counterparts shall constitute but one and the same
instrument.

 

(q)
Specific Performance. The parties hereto hereby declare that it is impossible to measure in money the damages which will
accrue to Warrantholder by reason of the Company’s failure to perform any of the obligations under this Agreement and agree
that the terms of this Agreement shall be specifically enforceable by Warrantholder. If Warrantholder institutes any action or
proceeding to specifically enforce the provisions hereof, any person against whom such action or proceeding is brought hereby
waives the claim or defense therein that Warrantholder has an adequate remedy at law, and such person shall not offer in any such
action or proceeding the claim or defense that such remedy at law exists.

 

    	9

     

    

 

(r)
Lost, Stolen, Mutilated or Destroyed Warrant. If this Warrant is lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed, the Company may,
on such terms as to indemnity or otherwise as it may reasonably impose (which shall, in the case of a mutilated Warrant, include
the surrender thereof), issue a new Warrant of like denomination and tenor as this Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed.
Any such new Warrant shall constitute an original contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the allegedly lost, stolen,
mutilated or destroyed Warrant shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.

 

(s)
Legends. To the extent required by applicable laws, this Warrant and the Warrant Shares (and the securities issuable, directly
or indirectly, upon conversion of such Warrant Shares, if any) may be imprinted with a restricted securities legend in substantially
the following form:

WHEREAS,
on the date of this Agreement certain directors and officers of the Company have executed and delivered a voting agreement to

of the Code.

 

NOW,

    	1

     

    

 

Section
1.04 Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws, Directors and Officers.

 

(a)
The Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Company, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time,
attached as Exhibit C hereto, as amended by the Articles of Merger and as provided herein, shall be the Articles of
Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation from and after the Effective Time until amended in accordance with applicable law
and such Articles of Incorporation.

 

(b) The
Bylaws of the Company, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, attached as Exhibit D hereto, shall be the

Section
1.05 Assets and Liabilities. At the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall possess all the rights, privileges,
powers and franchises of a public as well as of a private nature, and be subject to all the restrictions, disabilities and duties
of each of Acquisition Corp. and the Company (collectively, the “Constituent Corporations”); and all the rights,
privileges, powers and franchises of each of the Constituent Corporations, and all property, real, personal and mixed, and all
debts due to any of the Constituent Corporations on whatever account, as well as all other things in action or belonging to each
of the Constituent Corporations, shall be vested in the Surviving Corporation; and all property, rights, privileges, powers and
franchises, and all and every other interest shall be thereafter as effectively the property of the Surviving Corporation as they
were of the several and respective Constituent Corporations, and the title to any real estate vested by deed or otherwise in either
of such Constituent Corporations shall not revert or be in any way impaired by the Merger; but all rights of creditors and all
liens upon any property of any of the Constituent Corporations shall be preserved unimpaired, and all debts, liabilities and duties
of the Constituent Corporations shall thenceforth attach to the Surviving Corporation, and may be enforced against it to the same
extent as if said debts, liabilities and duties had been incurred or contracted by it.

 

Section
1.06 Subscription Transaction. Immediately prior to the Closing, the Company shall (A) release, or obtain the consent
of the applicable subscription holders necessary to release, the $2,500,000.00 held in escrow in connection with outstanding subscription
receipts between the Company and the holders of such receipts, and (B) complete all other actions in order to effect all outstanding
subscriptions for shares of common stock (the “Subscription Transaction”).

 

Section
1.07 Manner and Basis of Converting Shares.

 

(a) At
the Effective Time:

 

(i) each
share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share of Acquisition Corp. that shall be outstanding immediately prior to the Effective
Time shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be converted into the right to receive
one (1) share of common stock, $0.001 par value, of the Surviving Corporation, so that at the Effective Time, Parent shall be
the holder of all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Surviving Corporation;

 

(ii) the
shares of common stock, $0.001 par value, of the Company (the “Company Common Stock”) beneficially owned by
the Stockholders of the Company (other than (A) shares of Company Common Stock as to which appraisal rights are perfected pursuant
to the applicable provisions of the NRS and not withdrawn or otherwise forfeited and (B) each share of Company Common Stock held
in the treasury of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time) shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action
on the part of the holders thereof, be converted into the right to receive (i) 581,053 share(s) of common stock, par value $0.001
per share, of Parent (the “Parent Common Stock”) and (ii) 106,894 shares of Series H Convertible Preferred
Stock par value $0.001 of Parent (“Parent Preferred Stock” and, together with the Parent Common Stock, the
“Parent Stock”), in such amounts as more specifically set forth on Schedule 1.07(a)(ii), which Parent
Preferred Stock shall have substantially the rights, powers, preferences, privileges and restrictions set out in Exhibit F hereto
and convert into Parent Common Stock on a 1 for 10 basis upon receipt of the approval (the “Parent Stockholder Approval”)
by the requisite vote of the stockholders of the Parent (the “Parent Stockholders”) at the 2020 annual meeting
of Parent Stockholders to be held on or about October 27, 2020 (the “Parent Stockholder Meeting”); and

 

    	2

     

    

 

(iii) each
share of Company Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled in
the Merger and cease to exist.

 

(b) After
the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation
of the shares of Company Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

 

(c) Notwithstanding
any contrary provisions of this Section 1.07, the Company may instruct Parent to allocate Parent Preferred Stock among
the holders of the Company Common Stock other than based on a pro rata allocation; provided, that no holder of Company Common
Stock approve such different allocation and each holder of Company Common Stock receives an equivalent amount of Parent Common
Stock for any Parent Preferred Stock that it would have otherwise received but for any different allocation of Parent Preferred
Stock contemplated hereby. This Section 1.07(c) shall have no force and effect if it would result in adverse tax consequence
to the Company or Parent.

 

Section
1.08 Surrender and Exchange of Certificates.

 

Concurrent
with or promptly after the Effective Time and upon (a) surrender of a certificate or certificates representing shares of Company
Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time or an affidavit and indemnification in form reasonably
acceptable to counsel for Parent stating that such Stockholder has lost its certificate or certificates or that such have been
destroyed or upon receipt by the Parent of a list of Stockholders for whom shares of Company Common Stock held were un-certificated
and (b) delivery of a Letter of Transmittal (as described in Article IV hereof), Parent shall issue to each record holder
of Company Common Stock surrendering such certificate, certificates or affidavit and Letter of Transmittal, a certificate or certificates
registered in the name of such Stockholder representing the number of shares of Parent Stock that such Stockholder shall be entitled
to receive as set forth in Section 1.07(a)(ii) hereof. Until the certificate, certificates, affidavit or certified list
of Stockholders is or are surrendered together with the Letter of Transmittal as contemplated by this Section 1.08 and
Article IV hereof, each certificate or affidavit that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented any outstanding
shares of Company Common Stock shall be deemed at and after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon surrender
as aforesaid the Parent Stock specified in Schedule 1.07(a)(ii) for the holder thereof or to perfect any rights of appraisal
that such holder may have pursuant to the applicable provisions of the NRS.

 

Section
1.09 Parent Stock. Parent agrees that it will cause the Parent Stock into which the Company Common Stock is converted
at the Effective Time pursuant to Section 1.07(a)(ii) to be available for such purposes.

 

Section
1.10 Further Assurances. From time to time, from and after the Effective Time, as and when reasonably requested by Parent,
the proper officers and directors of the Company as of the Effective Time shall, for and on behalf and in the name of the Company
or otherwise, execute and deliver all such deeds, bills of sale, assignments and other instruments and shall take or cause to
be taken such further actions as Parent, Acquisition Corp. or their respective successors or assigns reasonably may deem necessary
or desirable in order to confirm or record or otherwise transfer to the Surviving Corporation title to and possession of all of
the properties, rights, privileges, powers, franchises and immunities of the Company or otherwise to carry out fully the provisions
and purposes of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

Article
II.

REPRESENTATIONS
AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY

 

The
Company hereby represents and warrants to Parent and Acquisition Corp. as follows:

 

Section
2.01 Organization, Standing, Subsidiaries, Etc.

 

(a) The
Company is a corporation duly organized and existing in good standing under the laws of the State of Nevada and has all requisite
power and authority (corporate and other) to carry on its business, to own or lease its properties and assets, to enter into this
Agreement and the Articles of Merger and to carry out the terms hereof and thereof. Copies of the Amended and Restated Articles
of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company that have been delivered to Parent and Acquisition Corp. prior to the execution of
this Agreement are true and complete and have not since been amended or repealed.

 

(b) The
Company has one wholly owned subsidiary, Western Panther Resources Corporation, a Nevada corporation (“WPRC”),
which owns a 100% membership interest in Eagle Resources Management LLC, a Utah limited liability company (“ERM”
and, together with WPRC, the “Company Subsidiaries”). Each of the Company Subsidiaries is a corporation or limited
liability company, as applicable, duly organized and existing in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation
or formation, as applicable, and has all requisite power and authority (corporate and other) to carry on its business as presently
conducted and to own or lease its properties and assets. Copies of the organizational documents of the Company Subsidiaries that
have been delivered to Parent and Acquisition Corp. prior to the execution of this Agreement are true and complete and have not
been amended or repealed.

 

(c) Each
of the Company Subsidiaries is wholly and directly or indirectly owned by the Company. Other than with respect to the Company
Subsidiaries, the Company has no direct or indirect interest (by way of stock ownership or otherwise) in any firm, corporation,
limited liability company, partnership, association or business. Other than with respect to the ownership interests disclosed
in Section 2.01(b), no Company Subsidiary has any direct or indirect interest (by way of stock ownership or otherwise)
in any firm, corporation, limited liability company, partnership, association or business.

 

Section
2.02 Qualification. Each of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries is duly qualified to conduct business as a foreign
corporation and is in good standing in each jurisdiction wherein the nature of its activities or its properties owned or leased
makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified would not have a material adverse effect on the
condition (financial or otherwise), properties, assets, liabilities, business operations, results of operations or prospects of
the Company, or the Company Subsidiaries, taken as a whole (the “Condition of the Company”).

 

Section
2.03 Capitalization. The authorized and outstanding capital stock of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries is listed
on Schedule 2.03. All of the outstanding capital stock of the Company and of each Company Subsidiary is duly authorized,
validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and none of such capital stock has been issued in violation of the preemptive rights
of any natural person, corporation, business trust, association, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, other
entity, government, agency or political subdivision (each, a “Person”). The offer, issuance and sale of the
authorized and outstanding shares of Company Common Stock were (a) exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements
of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), (b) registered or qualified (or were exempt
from registration or qualification) under the registration or qualification requirements of all applicable state securities laws
and (c) accomplished in conformity with all other applicable securities laws. None of such shares of Company Common Stock are
subject to a right of withdrawal or a right of rescission under any federal or state securities or “Blue Sky” law.
Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement or as disclosed in Schedule 2.03, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries
have no outstanding options, rights or commitments to issue common stock or other Equity Securities (as defined below), and there
are no outstanding securities convertible or exercisable into or exchangeable for common stock or other Equity Securities of the
Company or the Company Subsidiaries or any equity appreciation, phantom equity, profit participation, or similar rights with respect
to the Company or the Company Subsidiaries. For purposes of this Agreement, “Equity Security” shall mean any
stock or other equity interest or similar security of an issuer or any security (whether stock, other equity interests, or Indebtedness
for Borrowed Money (as defined below)) convertible, with or without consideration, into any stock or other equity security, or
any security (whether stock, other equity interests or Indebtedness for Borrowed Money) carrying any warrant or right to subscribe
to or purchase any stock or similar equity security, or any such warrant or right.

 

    	4

     

    

 

Section
2.04 Indebtedness. Except as provided in the Company’s Financial Statements (as defined below), the Company has
no Indebtedness for Borrowed Money. For purposes of this Agreement, “Indebtedness for Borrowed Money” shall
mean (a) all Indebtedness in respect of money borrowed including, without limitation, Indebtedness that represents the unpaid
amount of the purchase price of any property and is incurred in lieu of borrowing money or using available funds to pay such amounts
and not constituting an account payable or expense accrual incurred or assumed in the ordinary course of business of the Company,
(b) all Indebtedness evidenced by a promissory note, bond or similar written obligation to pay money or (c) all such Indebtedness

CONDUCT OF BUSINESSES of the Company PENDING THE MERGER.

 

Section
5.01 Conduct of Business. Prior to the Effective Time, unless Parent or Acquisition Corp. shall otherwise agree in writing
or as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement:

 

(b)
the business of the Company and each Company Subsidiary shall be conducted only in the ordinary course;

 

(c)
the Company shall not (i) directly or indirectly redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire or agree to redeem, purchase or otherwise
acquire any shares of its capital stock; (ii) amend its Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws except to effectuate
the transactions contemplated hereby or (iii) split, combine or reclassify the outstanding Company Common Stock or declare, set
aside or pay any dividend payable in cash, stock or property or make any distribution with respect to any such stock;

 

(d)
the Company shall not, and shall cause each Company Subsidiary not to (i) issue or agree to issue any additional shares of, or
options, warrants or rights of any kind to acquire any shares of, Company Common Stock, Equity Securities or any equity appreciation,
phantom equity, profit participation, or similar rights with respect to the Company or any Company Subsidiary, except to issue
shares of Company Common Stock in connection with any matter relating to the transactions contemplated hereby; (ii) acquire or
dispose of any fixed assets or acquire or dispose of any other substantial assets other than in the ordinary course of business;
(iii) incur any Indebtedness or any other liabilities or enter into any other transaction other than in the ordinary course of
business or to effect the Merger; (iv) enter into any contract, agreement, commitment or arrangement with respect to any of the
foregoing or (v) except as contemplated by this Agreement, enter into any contract, agreement, commitment or arrangement to dissolve,
merge, consolidate or enter into any other material business combination;

 

(e)
the Company shall preserve intact the business organization of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, to keep available the
service of its present officers and key employees, and to preserve the good will of those having business relationships with it;

 

(f)
the Company will not, nor will it authorize any director or authorize or permit any officer or employee or any attorney, accountant
or other representative retained by it to make, solicit, encourage any inquiries with respect to, or engage in any negotiations
concerning, any Acquisition Proposal (as defined below for purposes of this paragraph). The Company will promptly advise Parent
orally and in writing of any such inquiries or proposals (or requests for information) and the substance thereof. As used in this
paragraph, “Acquisition Proposal” shall mean any proposal for a merger or other business combination involving
the Company or for the acquisition of a substantial equity interest in it or any material assets of the Company other than as
contemplated by this Agreement. The Company will immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing activities, discussions
or negotiations with any Person conducted heretofore with respect to any of the foregoing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, in response to the receipt of a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal made after the date of this Agreement that
does not result from a breach of this Section 5.01(f) by the Company and that the Company Board determines in good faith
(after consultation with outside legal counsel and a financial advisor) constitutes or could reasonably be expected to lead to
a Superior Acquisition Proposal (as defined below for purposes of this paragraph), the Company may (1) furnish information with
respect to the Company to the Person making such Acquisition Proposal (provided, that (i) all such information has previously
been provided to Parent or is provided to Parent prior to or concurrently with the provision of such information to such Person)
pursuant to a customary confidentiality agreement that does not restrict the Company’s ability to comply with its obligations
under this Section 5.01 and (2) participate in discussions and negotiations regarding the terms of such Acquisition Proposal
and any definitive agreement related thereto. As used in this paragraph, “Superior Acquisition Proposal” shall
mean a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal, which the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with
outside legal counsel and a financial advisor, and taking into account the legal, financial, regulatory, timing and other aspects
of such Acquisition Proposal, the identity of the Person making the proposal and any financing required for such proposal, the
ability of the Person making such proposal to obtain such required financing and the level of certainty with respect to such required
financing, and such other factors that are deemed relevant by the Company Board, is more favorable to the holders of Company Common
Stock than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (after taking into account any revisions to the terms of this Agreement
that are committed to in writing by Parent (including pursuant to Section 5.01(g)). Without limiting the foregoing, it
is agreed that any violation of the restrictions set forth in this Section 5.01(f) by any representative of the Company
or any of its Affiliates, in each case, at the Company’s direction, shall constitute a breach of this Section 5.01(f)
by the Company. Except as set forth in this Section 5.01(f), neither the Company Board nor any committee thereof shall
authorize, permit, approve or recommend, or propose publicly to authorize, permit, approve or recommend, or allow the Company
or any of its Affiliates to execute or enter into, any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle,
agreement or commitment constituting, or that would reasonably be expected to lead to, any Acquisition Proposal, or requiring,
or that would reasonably be expected to cause, the Company to abandon or terminate this Agreement (a “Company Acquisition
Agreement”);

 

    	20

     

    

 

(g)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, at any time prior to obtaining Stockholder approval, the Company Board may change
the Company Board Recommendation if the Company has received a Superior Acquisition Proposal that does not result from a breach
(other than an immaterial breach) of Section 5.01 by the Company and if the Company Board determines in good faith (after
consultation with outside legal counsel and a financial advisor) that the failure to change its recommendation in response to
the receipt of such Superior Acquisition Proposal, would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with the Company Board’s
fiduciary duties under applicable law; provided, however, that the Company Board may not change the Company Board Recommendation
unless (1) the Company Board has provided prior written notice to Parent (a “Company Recommendation Change Notice”)
that it is prepared to effect a change of the Company Board Recommendation at least five (5) business days prior to taking such
action, which notice shall specify the basis for such intended action and, in the case of a Superior Acquisition Proposal, attaching
the most current draft of any Company Acquisition Agreement with respect to such Superior Acquisition Proposal or, if no draft
exists, a summary of the material terms and conditions of such Superior Acquisition Proposal, (2) during the five (5) Business
Day period after delivery of the Company Recommendation Change Notice, the Company and its representatives negotiate in good faith
with Parent and its representatives regarding any revisions to this Agreement that Parent proposes to make, and (3) at the end
of such five (5) business day period and taking into account any changes to the terms of this Agreement committed to in writing
by Parent, the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with outside legal counsel and a financial advisor)
that the failure to change the Company Board Recommendation would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable law,
and that the Acquisition Proposal still constitutes a Superior Acquisition Proposal;

 

(h)
the Company shall not, and shall cause the Company Subsidiaries not to, enter into any new agreement or amend or modify any current
agreements with any of its current or former officers or employees, grant any increases in the compensation or benefits of any
of its officers and employees, or adopt, amend, modify or terminate any Employee Benefit Plan or any other employee benefit plan,
agreement, arrangement, policy, practice, commitment, contract or understanding that would be an Employee Benefit Plan if in existence
as of the date hereof; and

 

(i)
the Company shall not, and shall cause the Company Subsidiaries not to, take any other action outside of the ordinary course of
business.

business, properties and personnel as such other party may reasonably request, provided that no investigation pursuant to this

and agents to hold, in confidence all such information (other than such information that (a) is already in such party’s
possession or (b) becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by such party or its directors,
officers, managers, employees, agents or advisors or (c) becomes available to such party on a non-confidential basis from a source
other than a party hereto or its advisors, provided that such source is not known by such party to be bound by a confidentiality
agreement with or other obligation of secrecy to a party hereto or another party until such time as such information is otherwise
publicly available; provided, however, that (i) any such information may be disclosed to such party’s directors,
officers, employees and representatives of such party’s advisors who need to know such information for the purpose of evaluating
the transactions contemplated hereby (it being understood that such directors, officers, employees and representatives shall be
informed by such party of the confidential nature of such information), (ii) any disclosure of such information may be made as
to which the party hereto furnishing such information has consented in writing and (iii) any such information may be disclosed
pursuant to a judicial, administrative or governmental order or request; provided, further, that the requested party
will promptly so notify the other party so that the other party may seek a protective order or appropriate remedy and/or waive
compliance with this Agreement and if such protective order or other remedy is not obtained or the other party waives compliance
with this provision, the requested party will furnish only that portion of such information that is legally required and will
exercise its best efforts to obtain a protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded
the information furnished. If this Agreement is terminated, each party will deliver to the other all documents and other materials
(including copies) obtained by such party or on its behalf from the other party as a result of this Agreement or in connection
herewith, whether so obtained before or after the execution hereof.

its commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all action and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary,
proper or advisable under applicable laws and regulations to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, including using its commercially reasonable efforts to satisfy the conditions precedent to the obligations of any of
the parties hereto, to obtain all necessary waivers, and to lift any injunction or other legal bar to the Merger (and, in such
case, to proceed with the Merger as expeditiously as possible). In order to obtain any necessary governmental or regulatory action
or non-action, waiver, consent, extension or approval, each of Parent, Acquisition Corp. and the Company agrees to take all reasonable
actions and to enter into all reasonable agreements as may be necessary to obtain timely governmental or regulatory approvals
and to take such further action in connection therewith as may be necessary. In case at any time after the Effective Time any
further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, the proper officers and/or directors of
Parent, Acquisition Corp. and the Company shall take all such necessary action.

 

Section
6.03 Publicity. No party shall issue any press release or public announcement pertaining to the Merger that has not been
agreed upon in advance by Parent and the Company, except as Parent reasonably determines to be necessary in order to comply with
the rules of the Commission or of the principal trading exchange or market for the Parent Common Stock, provided, that in such
case Parent will use its best efforts to allow the Company to review and reasonably approve any such press release or public announcement
prior to its release.

 

Section
6.04 Appointment of Directors and Officers. Immediately at the Effective Time, the Parent shall appoint or cause to be
appointed George Bee as President of the Parent, provided that the officers and directors of the Parent prior to the Closing Date
shall otherwise remain the officers and directors of the Parent after the Closing Date. Parent agrees to nominate George Bee and
Robert Schafer (the “Company Designees”) and include such Company Designees among management’s nominees
for election of directors at the Parent Stockholder Meeting (or alternative designee(s) specified in writing and delivered by
the Stockholder Representative pursuant to the notice provisions contained herein at least ten (10) days prior to the scheduled

shall be accomplished in accordance with the Bylaws of Parent and the rules of the Commission.

the generality of the foregoing, the Parent shall (a) include in the proxy materials submitted to the Parent Stockholders in connection
with the Parent Stockholder Meeting an unanimous recommendation from the Parent Board that the Parent Stockholders approve the

outstanding shares of Company Common Stock approving this Agreement and the Merger (the “Written
Consent”). The materials submitted to the Stockholders in connection with the Written Consent shall include the
Company Board Recommendation and shall be approved by Parent prior to distribution to the Stockholders (which approval shall
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Promptly following receipt of the Written Consent, the Company shall deliver a copy
of such Written Consent to Parent. Promptly following, but in no event more than five (5) business days after receipt of the
Written Consent, the Company shall prepare and mail a notice (the “Stockholder Notice”) to every
Stockholder, if any, entitled to dissenter’s rights pursuant to NRS 92A.380. The Stockholder Notice shall (i) be a
statement to the effect that the Company Board unanimously recommended the Plan of Merger in accordance with NRS 92A.120 and
unanimously approved and adopted this Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) provide the

and the bylaws of the Company and (iii) notify such Stockholders of their dissent and appraisal rights pursuant to NRS
92A.430. The Stockholder Notice shall include therewith a copy of NRS 92A.300 to 92A.500, inclusive and all such other
information as Parent shall reasonably request, and shall be sufficient in form and substance to start the 30-60 day period
during which a Stockholder must demand payment for such Stockholder’s shares of Company Common Stock as contemplated by
NRS 92A.430. All materials submitted to the Stockholders in accordance with this Section 6.06 shall be subject to
Parent’s advance review and reasonable approval.

MISCELLANEOUS

 

Section
9.01 Stockholder Representative. By approving this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby or by executing and
delivering a Letter of Transmittal, each Stockholder shall have irrevocably authorized and appointed Stockholder Representative
as such Person’s representative and attorney-in-fact to act on behalf of such Person with respect to this Agreement and
to take any and all actions and make any decisions required or permitted to be taken by Stockholder Representative pursuant to
this Agreement, including the exercise of the power to:

 

(a)
give and receive notices and communications;

 

(b)
execute and deliver all documents necessary or desirable to carry out the intent of this Agreement (including, without limitation,
amendment of this Agreement on behalf of the Stockholders);

 

(c)
enforce, at the Parent’s expense, Parent’s obligation to appoint George Bee as President of the Parent or nominate
the Company Designees for election as directors of the Parent at the Parent Stockholder Meeting pursuant to Section 6.04;

 

(d)
enforce, at the Parent’s expense, Parent’s obligation to seek Parent Stockholder Approval pursuant to Section 6.05;

 

(e)
make all elections or decisions contemplated by this Agreement;

 

(f)
engage, employ or appoint any agents or representatives (including attorneys, accountants and consultants) to assist Stockholder
Representative in complying with its duties and obligations; and

 

(g)
take all actions necessary or appropriate in the good faith judgment of Stockholder Representative for the accomplishment of the
foregoing.

 

Parent
shall be entitled to deal exclusively with Stockholder Representative on all matters relating to this Agreement and shall be entitled
to rely conclusively (without further evidence of any kind whatsoever) on any document executed or purported to be executed on
behalf of any Stockholder by Stockholder Representative, and on any other action taken or purported to be taken on behalf of any
Stockholder by Stockholder Representative, as being fully binding upon such Person. Notices or communications to or from Stockholder
Representative shall constitute notice to or from each of the Stockholders. Any decision or action by Stockholder Representative
hereunder shall constitute a decision or action of all Stockholders and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon each such
Person. No Stockholder shall have the right to object to, dissent from, protest or otherwise contest the same. The provisions
of this Section 9.01, including the power of attorney granted hereby, are independent and severable, are irrevocable and
coupled with an interest and shall not be terminated by any act of any one or more Stockholders, or by operation of law, whether
by death or other event.

 

    	27

     

    

 

The
Stockholder Representative may resign at any time, and may be removed for any reason or no reason by the vote or written consent
of a majority in interest of the Stockholders according to each Stockholder’s respective percentage of ownership in the
Company immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Majority Holders”); provided, however, in no event shall
Stockholder Representative resign or be removed without the Majority Holders having first appointed a new Stockholder Representative
who shall assume such duties immediately upon the resignation or removal of Stockholder Representative. In the event of the death,
incapacity, resignation or removal of Stockholder Representative, a new Stockholder Representative shall be appointed by the vote
or written consent of the Majority Holders. Notice of such vote or a copy of the written consent appointing such new Stockholder
Representative shall be sent to Parent, such appointment to be effective upon the later of the date indicated in such consent
or the date such notice is received by Parent; provided, that until such notice is received, Parent, Acquisition Corp. and the
Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to rely on the decisions and actions of the prior Stockholder Representative as described
in this Section 9.01.

 

The
Stockholder Representative shall not be liable to the Stockholders for actions taken pursuant to this Agreement, except to the
extent such actions shall have been determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and conclusive, non-appealable
judgment to have constituted gross negligence or involved fraud, intentional misconduct or bad faith (it being understood that
any act done or omitted pursuant to the advice of counsel, accountants and other professionals and experts retained by Stockholder
Representative shall be conclusive evidence of good faith). The Stockholders shall severally and not jointly (in accordance with
their respective percentage of ownership in the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time), indemnify and hold harmless
Stockholder Representative from and against, compensate it for, reimburse it for and pay any and all losses, liabilities, claims,
actions, damages and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, arising out of and in connection
with its activities as Stockholder Representative under this Agreement (the “Representative Losses”), in each
case as such Representative Loss is suffered or incurred; provided, that in the event it is finally adjudicated that a Representative
Loss or any portion thereof was primarily caused by the gross negligence, fraud, intentional misconduct or bad faith of Stockholder
Representative, Stockholder Representative shall reimburse the Stockholders the amount of such indemnified Representative Loss
attributable to such gross negligence, fraud, intentional misconduct or bad faith. The Representative Losses shall be satisfied
from the Stockholders, severally and not jointly (in accordance with their respective percentage of ownership in the Company immediately
prior to the Effective Time).
