The terms of Seller’s written acceptance (if any) of Buyer’s purchase order, as described in Section 2.1 above.

	
 
	
2.3
	
Increases, Rescheduling and Cancellation.

	
 
	
(a)
	
Subject to Section 2.4 below, Buyer may increase, reschedule, or cancel the quantity of any Products specified in a purchase order by delivering to Seller, by email, mail or facsimile, a written change order in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.3, or in connection with an ECO (defined below) (hereinafter “Change Order”). No Change Order shall be effective until it is actually received and accepted by Seller’s authorized representative.

	
 
	
(b)
	
Subject to Section 2.4 below, Buyer may increase the quantity of any Product specified in a purchase order from the quantity originally set forth for the same period in the forecast provided by Buyer by delivering to Seller a Change Order, which is actually received and accepted by an authorized representative of Seller, which acceptance may or may not be granted in Seller’s sole discretion. Quantities of the Products ordered for any calendar month may not exceed the original purchase order quantity without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. In any event, Seller reserves the right to ship the increased quantities separately from the original order quantities. In addition, Seller will use reasonable commercial efforts to meet any quantity increases, which are subject to materials and capacity availability. If Seller agrees to accept a reschedule to pull in a delivery date or an increase in quantities in excess of the purchase order and if there are extra costs to meet such reschedule or increase, Seller will inform Buyer for its acceptance and approval in advance.

	
 
	
(c)
	
Subject to Section 2.4 below, Buyer may reschedule all or any portion of a purchase order by delivering to Seller a Change Order, which is actually received and accepted by an authorized representative of Seller, within the number of days as specified below before the originally scheduled shipment date for the Product; provided, however, that in no event shall Buyer reschedule any quantities decreased or rescheduled in a manner contrary to the terms in this Agreement.

2.4
	
Materials Procurement; Buyer Responsibility for Materials. Buyer is responsible, under the conditions provided in this Agreement, for all materials and inventory purchased by Seller under this Agreement in the event that Seller purchases and receives material for purchase orders that Seller is not allowed to build and ship to dates in purchase orders as accepted by Seller due to any Change Order 

 2 

	
 
		
outside of the parameters set forth in Section 2.3 above, or due to any ECR requested by Buyer as further provided in this Agreement.

	
 
	
(a)
	
Buyer’s forecast and Buyer’s purchase orders accepted by Seller and the schedule of Long Lead Materials that is set forth in Appendix A (the “Long Lead Time Materials List”), as amended from time to time by the Parties including through written correspondence, are authorization for Seller to purchase, without Buyer’s prior approval (a) all inventory and materials required to manufacture the Products covered by such purchase orders and forecast based on the lead time to procure the materials plus the manufacturing cycle time required from the delivery of the materials to Seller’s facility to the completion of the manufacture, assembly and test processes (the “Lead Time”) (the “Long Lead Time Materials”); and (b) certain special inventory and materials required to manufacture the Products covered by Buyer’s forecast that have Lead Times exceeding the period covered by the accepted purchase orders for the Products or that may only be purchased in quantities that exceed the amounts covered by the accepted purchase orders for the Products, or which are purchased in economic order quantities required to achieve Buyer’s requested pricing (referred to elsewhere herein as minimum order quantity materials or “MOQ”). All Long Lead Time Materials known as of the date of this Agreement will be documented on the Long Lead Time Materials List, which will be approved by Buyer within 10 days of this Agreement.

	
 
	
(b)
	
Buyer may direct Seller to purchase certain materials from vendors specifically identified by Buyer (“Buyer Controlled Materials”) on terms and conditions negotiated by Buyer with such vendor (“Buyer Controlled Materials Terms”). Buyer acknowledges that the Buyer Controlled Materials Terms will directly impact Seller’s ability to perform under this Agreement and to provide Buyer with the flexibility Buyer is requiring pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. In the event that Seller reasonably believes that the Buyer Controlled Materials Terms will create an additional cost that is not covered by this Agreement, then Seller will notify Buyer and the Parties will agree to either (a) compensate Seller for such additional costs, (b) amend this Agreement to conform to the Buyer Controlled Materials Terms or

	
 
	
(c)
	
amend the Buyer Controlled Materials Terms to conform to this Agreement, in each case at no additional charge to Seller. Buyer agrees to provide copies to Seller of all Buyer Controlled Materials Terms upon the execution of this Agreement and promptly upon execution of any new agreements with vendors for Buyer Controlled Materials. Buyer agrees not to make any modifications or additions to the Buyer Controlled Materials Terms or enter into new Buyer Controlled Materials supply agreements with vendors that will negatively impact Seller’s procurement activities under this Agreement.

	
 
	
(d)
	
In the event Buyer consigns components, materials, or supplies to be used by Seller in the manufacture of the Product (“Consigned Materials”), Buyer agrees to consign adequate quantities to timely manufacture Products and agrees to cover any reasonable production-related attrition at Buyer’s sole expense. Title to Consigned Materials remains at all times with Buyer and Seller has no obligation to purchase the Consigned Materials. Seller shall ensure that such Consigned Materials will be allocated part numbers to indicate Buyer’s ownership. Seller will bear responsibility for any damage or loss of Consigned Materials related to nonproduction causes such as handling or storage while they are on Seller’s premises.

	
 
	
(e)
	
The rescheduling or cancellation of an order shall not affect any Products that have been shipped by Seller prior to or on the date the Seller received the written notice of cancellation, nor Buyer’s obligation to purchase any Products in excess of the percentages shown in Section 2.3(c) above.

	
 
	
(f)
	
All reschedules to push out delivery dates that are outside of the parameters set forth in the table in Section 2.3(c) require Seller’s prior written approval, which, in its sole discretion, may or may not be granted. In addition, if Seller notifies Buyer that any inventory or materials has remained in Seller’s possession for more than ninety (90) days after an approved reschedule, then Buyer agrees to immediately purchase any affected inventory and materials upon receipt of the notice by paying the following costs (the “Costs”): (i) 110% of the cost of all affected inventory and materials in Seller’s possession and not returnable to the vendor or not usable for any other active customer, whether in raw form or work in process, less the salvage value thereof, (ii) 105% of the cost of all affected inventory and materials on order and not 

 3 

	
 
		
cancelable, (iii) any vendor cancellation charges incurred with respect to the affected inventory and materials accepted for cancellation or return by the vendor, (iv) the then current fees for any affected Product, and (v) reasonable expenses incurred by Seller related to labor and equipment specifically put in place to support the purchase orders and forecasts that are affected by such reschedule or cancellation (as applicable). In addition, any finished Products that have already been manufactured to support the original delivery schedule will be treated as cancelled.

	
 
	
(g)
	
If Seller notifies Buyer that such Product or inventory and materials has remained in Seller’s possession for more than thirty (30) days since such cancellation, then Buyer agrees to purchase from Seller such Product and inventory and materials by paying the Costs. If the quantity forecasted for in any period is less than the previous quantity forecasted over the same quarterly period from the previous year, then that amount will be considered canceled or rescheduled and Buyer will be responsible for any inventory or materials purchased or ordered by Seller to support the forecast as further provided in this Section 2.4. Products that have been ordered by Buyer and that have not been picked up in accordance with the agreed upon shipment dates shall be considered cancelled and Buyer will be responsible for such Products in the same manner as set forth in this Section 2.4. For purposes of calculating the amount of inventory and materials in the event a purchase order quantity is considered cancelled, the lead time for the purposes of this subsection 2.4(f) shall be calculated as the lead time at the time of (i) procurement of the inventory or materials; (ii) cancellation of the purchase order, or (iii) termination of this Agreement, whichever is longer.

	
 
	
(h)
	
Prior to invoicing Buyer for the amounts due pursuant to Section 2.4, Seller will use reasonable commercial efforts, for a period of thirty (30) days, to return unused inventory and materials, cancel pending orders for such inventory, and mitigate the amounts payable by Buyer. Buyer shall pay amounts due under this Section 2.4 within ten (10) days of receipt of an invoice. Seller will ship the Products, inventory and materials paid for by Buyer under this Section 2.4 to Buyer promptly upon said payment by Buyer. In the event Buyer does not pay within ten (10) days, Seller will be entitled to dispose of such Product, inventory and materials in a commercially reasonable manner and credit to Buyer any monies received from third parties. Seller shall then submit an invoice for the balance of the amount due and Buyer agrees to pay said amount within ten (10) days of its receipt of the invoice.

	
 
	
(i)
	
For the avoidance of doubt, Seller’s failure to invoice Buyer for any of the charges set forth in this Section 2.4 does not constitute a waiver of Seller’s right to charge Buyer for the same event or other similar events in the future, unless previously agreed by an authorized representative of Seller.

During such warranty period, Seller shall, at its sole discretion and at its expense, repair or replace the defective Products. Buyer’s exclusive remedy for breach of warranty shall be as set forth in this Section 9.1; provided that Seller shall repair or replace any affected Products for any recall of Products that results from any workmanship-related cause that could have been identified at the time of manufacture through the Buyer specified inspection and test procedures. Seller will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and pass through to Buyer a warranty with regard to the materials that the materials conform to the vendor’s specifications and/or with the Specifications and that the materials are free from defects in workmanship.

(b)
	
An “Epidemic Failure” will be considered to exist when return rate data indicates that five percent (5%) of Products shipped during any twelve (12) consecutive months has been proven to exhibit the substantially same major functional, mechanical, or appearance defect. Seller and Buyer will agree to a reasonable plan and allocation of costs to carry out the repair or replacement of affected Products shipped during said twelve-month period. Upon agreement, Seller will pay any claims for such costs by Seller if the problem is a result of a breach by Seller of its express limited warranty set forth in Section 9.1(a).

	
 
	
9.2
	
LIMITATION OF WARRANTY. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY STATED IN SECTION 8.1 AND 9.1, SELLER HEREBY DISCLAIMS ANY OTHER WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS ON THE PERFORMANCE OF THE WORK OR THE PRODUCTS, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR IN ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR COMMUNICATION WITH BUYER, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. SELLER SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DEFECT CAUSED BY PRODUCT MISUSE.

	
 
	
9.3
	
NO OTHER LIABILITY. EXCEPT WITH REGARD TO A BREACH OF SECTION 14 BELOW, IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR ANY “COVER” DAMAGES (INCLUDING INTERNAL COVER DAMAGES WHICH THE PARTIES AGREE MAY NOT BE CONSIDERED “DIRECT” DAMAGES), OR ANY INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OF ANY KIND OR NATURE ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE SALE OF PRODUCTS, WHETHER SUCH LIABILITY IS ASSERTED ON THE BASIS OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING THE POSSIBILITY OF NEGLIGENCE OR STRICT LIABILITY), OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF THE PARTY HAS BEEN WARNED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF ANY SUCH LOSS OR DAMAGE, AND EVEN IF ANY OF THE LIMITED REMEDIES IN THIS AGREEMENT FAIL OF THEIR ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

THE FOREGOING SECTION 9 STATES THE ENTIRE LIABILITY OF THE PARTIES TO EACH OTHER CONCERNING INFRINGEMENT OF PATENT, COPYRIGHT, TRADE SECRET OR OTHER INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS.

	
10.
	
INDEMNIFICATION

	
 
	
10.1
	
Seller shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Buyer, Buyer’s officers, directors, employees, and Buyer’s Affiliates, subsidiaries, successors and assigns from and against all claims, demands, liabilities, losses, costs, fees, expenses (including reasonable attorney fees), damages and injuries of any kind or nature suffered or incurred as a result of a third party claim arising in connection with or resulting from: (i) personal injury, death or property damages to the extent it is incurred due to defects (other than defects caused by a Restoration Robotics design of the Products) in the Products Manufactured by Supplier pursuant to this Agreement, including Supplier’s failure to comply with the Specifications, (ii) breach by Supplier of representations and warranties provided in this Agreement, or Supplier’ failure to comply with federal, state or local laws, (ii) gross negligence or wrongful intentional act of Supplier or its representatives, employees or agents.

	
 
	
10.2
	
Buyer shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Seller, Seller’s officers, directors, employees, and Seller’s Affiliates, subsidiaries, successors and assigns from and against all claims, demands, liabilities, losses, costs, fees, expenses (including reasonable attorney fees), damages and injuries of any kind or nature suffered or incurred as a result of a third party claim arising in connection with or resulting from: (i) personal injury, death or property damages to the extent it is incurred due to defects caused by a Restoration Robotics design of the Products, (ii) Buyer’s failure to comply with federal, state or local laws, (iii) gross negligence or wrongful intentional act of Buyer or its representatives, employees or agents, or (iv) infringement of United States patent but only to the extent such infringement is caused by the Restoration Robotics design. Notwithstanding the above, under no circumstances will Buyer have any indemnification obligations under this Section 10.2(iv) for any patent infringement claim based on any off-the-shelf Products, components or a la carte items supplied by Supplier to Buyer, or for any third-party claims under this subsection 10.2 to the extent such claims result from 1) use or combination of the Products with other items such as other equipment, processes, programming applications or materials not furnished by Buyer, 2) use of any Products not in accordance with Buyer’s written Specifications; or 3) modifications to Products not made by or at the express written direction of Buyer.

	
 
	
10.3
	
If Seller’s rights to Manufacture the Products under the terms of this Agreement are, or in Buyer’s opinion are likely to be, enjoined due to the type of claim specified in Section 10.2(iv) (infringement of 

 9 

	
 
		
United States patent), then Buyer may, at its sole option and expense: (i) obtain for Supplier the right to continue to Manufacture such Product under the terms of this Agreement; (ii) replace or modify an infringing Product or portion thereof with a substantially functional equivalent so that it is no longer infringes; or (iii) if neither option (i) nor (ii) above cannot be accomplished despite Buyer’s reasonable efforts, then Buyer may terminate this Agreement in whole or, if practicable, with respect to the infringing Product or component. THE FOREGOING PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 10.3 SET FORTH BUYER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE LIABILITY AND SUPPLIER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR ANY THIRD-PARTY CLAIMS OF INFRINGEMENT.

	
 
	
10.4
	
10.4. A Party (the “Indemnitee”) that intends to claim indemnification under this Section 10 shall promptly notify in writing the other Party (the “Indemnitor”) of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect of which the Indemnitee intends to claim such indemnification, and provide Indemnitor an opportunity to elect to take over, settle or defend the same through counsel of the Indemnitor’s own choice (but reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee) and under the Indemnitor’s sole discretion and at the Indemnitor’s own expense, and will make available to the Indemnitor in the event of such election, all defenses against such claims or actions, known or available to the Indemnitee. However, the Indemnitee shall have the right to participate in the defense against the indemnified claims with counsel of its choice at its own expense. The Indemnitor and the Indemnitee shall cooperate fully in all aspects of any investigation, defense, pre-trial activities, trial, compromise, settlement, or discharge of any claim in respect of which indemnity is sought pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, providing the other Party with reasonable access to employees and officers (including, without limitation, as witnesses) and other information.

	
 
	
10.5
	
The indemnity obligations in this Section 10 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is affected without the consent of the Indemnitor. However, if the Indemnitor receives a settlement offer that the Indemnitor rejects, the Indemnitor shall be responsible for any damages finally awarded or settlement amounts entered into to the extent based upon such claim. In no event shall the Indemnitor be entitled to settle any of the above-mentioned claims that could materially adversely affect the Indemnitee without the Indemnitee’s consent, provided however, that the Indemnitor may settle or compromise any such claim without a written consent of the Indemnitee only when such settlement or compromise includes an unconditional release of the Indemnitee.

	
 
	
10.6
	
In the event a claim is based partially on an indemnified claim described in this Section 10 and partially on a non-indemnified claim, or is based partially on a claim indemnified by Buyer and partially on a claim indemnified by Supplier, any payments and reasonable attorney fees incurred in connection with such claims are to be apportioned between the Parties in accordance with the degree of cause attributable to each Party. In the event either Party is adjudged to have been grossly negligent or to have acted with willful misconduct in connection with such claim, such Party will not be entitled to be indemnified and held harmless under this Section 10.

	
11.
	
STOP WORK

In the event that Buyer fails to make timely payment at least sixty (60) days after the due date on any undisputed purchase order according to its payment terms and for as long as such payment remains overdue and payable, Seller shall be permitted to stop work on any and all outstanding purchase orders issued by Buyer, without penalty to Seller. Except in the event of termination by Seller pursuant to Section 12.1 or Section 12.2 below, Seller shall be obligated to re-commence work on outstanding purchase orders upon Buyer bringing overdue payment(s) current.

	
12.
	
TERMINATION

	
 
	
12.1
	
This Agreement may be terminated at any time upon the mutual written agreement of both Parties hereto.

	
 
	
(a)
	
Either Buyer or Seller may terminate this Agreement at any time upon one hundred twenty (120) days’ notice consistent with the terms in Section 1.1; provided, that either Buyer or Seller may terminate this Agreement at any time upon one hundred eighty (180) days’ notice during the Initial Term if Buyer’s quarterly forecasted demand for Products with substantially the same mix of products and SKUs as the preceding period falls below 75% of Buyer’s historical forecasted demand for the same period in the previous year.

	
 
	
(b)
	
Buyer may terminate this Agreement at any time upon one hundred eighty (180) days’ notice to Seller in the event of a change of control of Restoration Robotics. For purposes of this 

 10 

	
 
		
Agreement, “Change of Control”, with respect to a Party, means the occurrence of any of the following events: (a) any consolidation or merger of the Party with or into any other entity in which holders of the Party’s outstanding equity interests immediately before such consolidation or merger do not, immediately after such consolidation or merger, retain equity interests representing a majority of the voting power of the surviving entity or equity interests representing a majority of the voting power of an entity that wholly owns, directly or indirectly, the surviving entity, (b) the sale, transfer or assignment of securities of the Party representing a majority of the voting power of all of Party’s outstanding voting securities to an acquiring party or group, or (c) the sale of all or substantially all of Party’s assets. For the avoidance of doubt, an initial public offering of Buyer’s equity interests is not considered a Change of Control for the purposes of this Section 12 or the Agreement.

	
 
	
(c)
	
If Seller terminates, such termination must include the following: (a) formal written notification of intent to terminate and (b) a transition plan that provides for a period of one hundred eighty (180) days from Buyer’s receipt of the written notification of termination from Seller which includes (i) Product coverage for Buyer, and (ii) reasonable assistance to Buyer to transition Product manufacturing to Buyer or a third party.

	
 
	
(d)
	
Upon termination by either Party for any reason (including pursuant to Sections 12.2 and 12.3 below, Buyer agrees to purchase, and Seller agrees to sell, all materials, components and work-in-process, including Inventory and Products, provided that Products to be purchased shall not exceed a maximum of three months future build quantities, plus long lead components and/or components that Buyer authorized Seller to purchase as follows:

	
 
	
1.
	
Purchase all finished Products produced for valid purchase orders at the stated unit price; and

	
 
	
2.
	
Purchase any work-in-process materials mutually agreed upon by both Parties during the Term of the Agreement; and

	
 
	
3.
	
Purchase all materials at actual cost, including MOQ and excess inventory, procured by Seller or which are not cancelable or returnable (NCNR) to the vendor; and

	
 
	
4.
	
Reimburse Seller for any reasonable cancellation and/or related costs from its vendors as a result of Buyer’s cancellation; and

	
 
	
5.
	
Reimburse Seller for any verifiable and actual charges incurred because the cancellation caused Seller to not attain the annual usage supplied by Seller’s vendor and utilized in establishing material prices quoted under this Agreement. Seller must obtain written approval from an authorized representative of the Buyer before Seller agrees to a termination or cancellation fee if (i) Buyer is obligated to pay any cancellation or termination fee and (ii) such fee exceeds $1,000 per vendor.

	
 
	
6.
	
MOQ and NCNR Purchases: For certain Products removed from production due to Buyer’s request to cease production of such Products, Buyer is responsible for the cost of any excess inventory required to be purchased by Seller to MOQ or NCNR requirements. MOQs are the result of procurement processes where Seller must buy full reels, tubed and packaged components. MOQ will be designated as such in advance and excess liability exposure will be shared with Buyer on a regular basis. If a MOQ or NCNR is to exceed $1,000 in excess cost, written approval must be obtained from Buyer.

	
 
	
7.
	
All MOQ and NCNR purchase orders placed by Seller must be approved in writing by Buyer or Buyer’s authorized parties.

Seller agrees not to begin new production, or purchase more materials or components, without receiving written approval from Buyer, following receipt of a written notice of termination from Buyer. The cost for Products will be in accordance with the established pricing in effect at the time of termination. The cost of components will be limited to the actual purchase price paid by Seller for the components, plus mutually agreed upon material handling charges or supplier related charges, if any.

	
 
	
12.2
	
Termination for Cause by Seller. Seller shall have the right to cancel this Agreement and/or any active purchase orders:

 11 

	
 
	
(a)
	
Upon Buyer’s failure to pay outstanding invoices within ninety (90) days from the date of the invoice according to the payment terms set forth in Section 6(b); or

	
 
	
(b)
	
Upon thirty (30) days advance written notice to Buyer regarding Buyer’s material nonperformance or repudiation of any other substantive obligations of this Agreement (other than failure to pay any invoice) and Buyer’s failure to cure such nonperformance or repudiation within ninety (90) days after the written notice is received, or such additional cure period as the Seller may authorize in writing; or

	
 
	
(c)
	
Upon written notice from the Seller in the event Buyer has elected to close or dissolve its operation or is wound up and dissolved, becomes insolvent, or repeatedly fails to pay its debts as they become due, makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, files a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or for reorganization or is adjudicated as bankrupt or insolvent, or has a liquidator or trustee appointed over its affairs and such appointment shall not have been terminated and discharged within thirty (30) days thereof.

	
 
	
12.3
	
Termination for Cause by Buyer. Buyer shall have the right to cancel this Agreement and/or any active purchase orders:

	
 
	
(a)
	
Upon thirty (30) days advance written notice to Seller regarding Seller’s material nonperformance or repudiation of any substantive obligations of this Agreement and Seller’s failure to cure such nonperformance or repudiation within thirty (30) days after the written notice is received or such additional cure period as Buyer may authorize in writing; or

	
 
	
(b)
	
Upon written notice from Buyer in the event Seller has elected to close or dissolve its operation or is wound up and dissolved, becomes insolvent, or repeatedly fails to pay its debts as they become due, makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, files a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or for reorganization, or is adjudicated as bankrupt or insolvent, or has a liquidator or trustee appointed over its affairs and such appointment shall not have been terminated and discharged within thirty (30) days thereof.

	
13.
	
OTHER

Except for a termination as described in Sections 12.2, the provisions of this Agreement will continue to apply to purchase orders accepted by Seller prior to the effective date of such termination or expiration. This Agreement shall constitute the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter herein, supersedes any prior agreement or understanding, whether written or oral, relating thereto, and can be amended only by a writing that is executed and delivered by both Parties hereto. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of California notwithstanding the conflict of laws provisions of the State of California.

DESCRIPTION
OF THE REGISTRANT’S SECURITIES

REGISTERED
PURSUANT TO SECTION 12 OF THE

SECURITIES
EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934

 

As
of December 31, 2019, Jerrick Media Holdings, Inc. (“the Company”) had one class of security registered under Section 12
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), our common stock, par value $0.001 per share
(“Common Stock”).

 

Description
of Common Stock

 

The
following description of our Common Stock is a summary and does not purport to be complete. It is subject to and qualified
in its entirety by reference to our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the “Articles of Incorporation”)
and our Bylaws (the “Bylaws”), each of which are incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the Annual Report on Form
10-K of which this Exhibit 4.1 is a part. We encourage you to read our Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, and the
applicable provisions of Nevada Revised Statutes for additional information.

 

Authorized
Capital Shares

 

Our
authorized capital shares consist of 15,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share, and 20,000,000 shares of preferred
stock, $0.001 par value per share (“Preferred Stock”). As of December 31, 2019, there were 9,178,937 shares of Common
Stock issued and outstanding. There were no shares of Preferred Stock issued or outstanding as of December 31, 2019.

 

Voting
Rights

 

Holders
of Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters voted on by the stockholders, including the election of directors.
Our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws do not provide for cumulative voting in the election of directors.

 

Dividend
Rights

 

Holders
of the Company’s Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the Board
of Directors in its discretion out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends.

 

Liquidation
Rights

 

In
the event of our liquidation, the holders of our Common Stock will be entitled to share ratably in any distribution of our assets
after payment of all debts and other liabilities and the preferences payable to holders of shares of Preferred Stock then outstanding,
if any.

 

Applicable
Anti-Takeover Law

 

Set
forth below is a summary of provisions in our Articles of Incorporation and the Bylaws that could have the effect of delaying
or preventing a change in control of the Company. The following description is only a summary and it is qualified by refence our
Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws and relevant provisions of the Nevada Revised Statutes.

 

Blank
Check Preferred Stock

 

Our
Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of 20,0000,000 undesignated shares of Preferred Stock and permits our board of
directors to issue Preferred Stock with rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to change control of
the Company. For example, our board of directors, without stockholder approval, may create or issue Preferred Stock with conversion
rights that could adversely affect the voting power of the holders of our Common Stock as well as rights to such Preferred Stock,
in connection with implementing a stockholder rights plan. This provision may be deemed to have a potential anti-takeover effect,
because the issuance of such Preferred Stock may delay or prevent a change of control of the Company. Furthermore, shares of Preferred
Stock, if any are issued, may have other rights, including economic rights, senior to Common Stock, and, as a result, the issuance
thereof could depress the market price of our Common Stock.

 

No
Cumulative Voting

 

Our
Articles of Incorporation and the Bylaws do not provide holders of our Common Stock cumulative voting rights in the election of
directors. The absence of cumulative voting could have the effect of preventing stockholders holding a minority of our shares
of Common Stock from obtaining representation on our Board of Directors. The absence of cumulative voting might also, under certain
circumstances, render more difficult or discourage a merger, tender offer or proxy contest favored by a majority of our stockholders,
the assumption of control by a holder of a large block of our stock or the removal of incumbent management.

 

Listing

 

The
Common Stock is traded on OTCQB Venture Market under the trading symbol “JMDA”.

Agent

Company’s transfer agent is VStock Transfer, LLC.
