collectively, the “Subscribers”), is intended to set forth certain representations, covenants and agreements
among the Company and the Subscribers, with respect to the private offering (the “Preferred Offering”) for
sale by the Company and the purchase by each Subscriber in the Preferred Offering of the number of shares set forth under such
Subscriber’s name on the signature pages hereto of 7.625% Series A Convertible Preferred Stock with the terms set forth
in the form of certificate of designations attached as Exhibit A hereto (the “Certificate of Designations”
and, such shares, the “Preferred Shares”) at a price per share of $100.00.

 

1. Subject
Preferred Subscription. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, each Subscriber hereby irrevocably
subscribes for and agrees, subject to the substantially concurrent occurrence of the closing of the acquisition of Daseke, Inc.,
a Delaware corporation (“Daseke”), in accordance with that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger
Agreement”), dated as of the date hereof, by and among the Company, Daseke, HCAC Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation
and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and Don R. Daseke, an individual residing in Texas, solely in his capacity as the
representative for the stockholders of Daseke pursuant to Section 11.01 of the Merger Agreement (such acquisition, the “Merger”,
and the closing of the Merger, the “Merger Closing”), to purchase from the Company the number of Preferred
Shares indicated as the “Subject Preferred Shares” under such Subscriber’s name on the signature page hereto
(the “Subject Preferred Shares”) at a purchase price of $100.00 per share, and the Company agrees, subject
to the substantially concurrent occurrence of the Merger Closing and the other conditions set forth herein, to sell to such Subscriber
at such purchase price such number of Subject Preferred Shares.

 

2. Delivery
of Subscription Amount; Acceptance of Subscriptions; Delivery. Each Subscriber understands and agrees that its subscription
is made subject to the following terms and conditions:

 

(a) Contemporaneously
with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, each Subscriber shall execute and deliver the Investor Questionnaire (as defined
below) and, in respect of the Preferred Offering pursuant to Section 1 hereof, upon notice from the Company setting forth the
reasonably anticipated date of the Merger Closing, such Subscriber shall, no fewer than three days prior to such anticipated date,
cause a wire transfer to be made for payment for the Subject Preferred Shares in immediately available funds in the aggregate
amount equal to $100.00 multiplied by the number of Subject Preferred Shares to be purchased by such Subscriber (each Subscriber’s
“Preferred Subscription Amount”) to the account(s) designated in writing by the Company to such Subscriber
prior to the Merger Closing. The payments provided for in this Section 2(a) shall be deposited in escrow with Continental
Stock Transfer & Trust Company (or other nationally recognized escrow agent with whom in all cases, whether with Continental
Stock Transfer & Trust Company or otherwise, the Company shall have an escrow agreement in place for purposes hereof, which
such agreement shall be on reasonable and customary terms) pending the Company’s acceptance of the subscription.

 

     

     

    

 

(b) The
subscription of each Subscriber for such Subscriber’s Subject Preferred Shares shall be deemed to be accepted only (and
shall not otherwise be accepted by the Company except) when (i) the Company has confirmed in writing to such Subscriber that
the Company’s representations and warranties contained herein are, or shall be, true and correct as of the date of the Company’s
acceptance of such subscription and (ii) the Merger Closing occurs substantially concurrent with the Company’s acceptance
of such subscription. If such acceptance does not occur on or prior to the earliest of (x) the Merger Closing or (y) the
date on which the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms (the “Termination Date”), such
Subscriber’s subscription shall automatically be deemed rejected (the “Subscription Rejection”).

 

(c) The
payment of the applicable Preferred Subscription Amount will be returned promptly, without interest, to each Subscriber if the
applicable subscriptions are rejected in whole or in part or if the Preferred Offering is withdrawn or canceled.

 

(d) The
representations and warranties of the Company and each Subscriber set forth herein shall be true and correct as of the date that
the Company accepts the subscriptions set forth herein.

 

3. Expenses.
Each party hereto shall pay all of its own expenses in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

 

4. Registration
Rights.

 

(a) At
the Merger Closing, the Company and each of the Subscribers shall enter into a Registration Rights Agreement
(the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company will agree to (i) register the resale
of the Subject Preferred Shares (and the common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share
(“Common Stock”), into which the Subject Preferred Shares may be converted, the “Underlying
Common”)), each under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the
rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and applicable state securities laws, (ii) use reasonable best efforts to cause
such registration to be declared effective no later than 180 days following the Merger Closing and (iii) provide the
Subscribers and certain other investors in the Company’s equity securities with customary demand (limited to one demand
for the Subscribers as a group) and piggyback registration rights. The Registration Rights Agreement shall include such
additional terms and conditions as are customary and reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Subscribers.

 

    2

     

    

 

(b) None
of the Subject Preferred Shares or the Underlying Common may be directly or indirectly transferred, disposed of or otherwise monetized
in any manner whatsoever, except pursuant to a registration statement or in a transaction that is exempt from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. Except as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement,
it shall be a condition to any such transfer that the Company shall be furnished with a written opinion of counsel to the holder
of such Subject Preferred Shares (or the Underlying Common, as applicable), reasonably satisfactory to the Company (as determined
by the Company within three Business Days of its receipt of such written opinion), to the effect that the proposed transfer would
be pursuant to a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws;
provided that the Company shall not require such written opinion of counsel if, acting in its reasonable discretion, the
Company determines that applicable Law does not prohibit any transfers of the Subject Preferred Shares (or the Underlying Common,
as applicable) at such time. “Business Day” shall mean any day that is not a Saturday, a Sunday or a day on
which commercial banks in New York City are required or authorized to be closed.

 

(c) Without
limitation to the generality of the foregoing, no Subscriber shall execute any short sales or engage in other hedging transactions
of any kind with respect to the Common Stock during the period from the date of the Merger Closing through the date that is 45
consecutive days thereafter. For the avoidance of doubt, the prohibition set forth herein shall not be applicable on or after
the Termination Date.

 

5. Representations,
Warranties, Understandings, Risk Acknowledgments, and Covenants of The Subscribers. Each Subscriber hereby represents, warrants
and covenants to the Company as follows:

 

(a) Such
Subscriber is purchasing the Subject Preferred Shares (including the Underlying Common) (collectively, the “Subject Shares”)
for its own account, not as a nominee or agent, for investment purposes and not with a view towards distribution or resale within
the meaning of the Securities Act (absent the registration of the Subject Shares for resale under the Securities Act or a valid
exemption from registration). Such Subscriber will not sell, assign or transfer such shares at any time in violation of the Securities
Act or applicable state securities laws. Such Subscriber acknowledges that the Subject Shares cannot be sold unless subsequently
registered under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or an exemption from such registration is available.

 

    3

     

    

 

(b) Such
Subscriber understands that (A) the Subject Shares (1) have not been registered under the Securities Act or any applicable
state securities laws, (2) have been offered and will be sold in reliance upon an exemption from the registration and prospectus
delivery requirements of the Securities Act, (3) will be issued in reliance upon exemptions from the registration and prospectus
delivery requirements of applicable state securities laws which relate to private offerings and (4) may be required to be held
indefinitely because of the fact that the Subject Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act or applicable state
securities laws, and (B) such Subscriber must therefore be capable of bearing the economic risk of its investment hereunder
indefinitely unless a subsequent disposition thereof is registered under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws
or is exempt therefrom. Such Subscriber further understands that such exemptions may depend upon, among other things, the bona
fide nature of the investment intent of such Subscriber expressed herein. Pursuant to the foregoing, such Subscriber acknowledges
that until such time as the resale of the Subject Shares has been registered under the Securities Act as contemplated by the Registration
Rights Agreement or otherwise may be sold pursuant to an exemption from registration, the certificates representing any Subject
Shares acquired by such Subscriber shall bear a restrictive legend substantially as follows (and a stop-transfer order may be
placed against transfer of such Subject Shares):

has the SEC or any applicable state securities commission passed upon the accuracy or adequacy of any representations by the Company.
Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

 

(ii) In
making an investment decision, such Subscriber must rely on its own examination of the Company, the Merger, Daseke, the Subject
Shares and the terms of the Preferred Offering, including the merits and risks involved. The Subject Shares have not been recommended
by any applicable federal or state securities commission or regulatory authority. Furthermore, the foregoing authorities have
not confirmed the accuracy or determined the adequacy of any representation by the Company. Any representation to the contrary
is a criminal offense.

 

(iii) The
Subject Shares will be “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act, are subject
to restrictions on transferability and resale and may not be transferred or resold except as permitted under the Securities Act

is defined in Rule 16a-1 under the Exchange Act) or short sale positions with respect to the securities of the Company. In
addition, such Subscriber shall comply with all applicable provisions of Regulation M promulgated under the Securities Act.

 

    8

and hold such Subject Shares; (ii) the signature of the party signing on behalf of such Entity is binding upon such Entity;

Securities Act and has submitted information substantiating such individual qualification.

to offset taxable income.

 

(n) This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Subscriber and constitutes a legal,
valid and binding obligation of such Subscriber enforceable against such Subscriber in accordance with its terms, except as such
enforceability may be limited by: (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws in effect
that limit creditors’ rights generally; (ii) equitable limitations on the availability of specific remedies; (iii) principles
of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in Law or in equity); and (iv) to the extent rights
to indemnification and contribution may be limited by federal securities laws or the public policy underlying such laws.

 

(o) Such

fails to consummate an initial business combination within the required time period described in the Final Prospectus, (iii) to
the Company in limited amounts for its tax obligations and for its working capital purposes and (iv) to the Company after, or
concurrently with, the consummation of a business combination. To induce the Company to enter into this Agreement and sell the
securities to be sold to it hereunder, such Subscriber agrees that it does not have any right, title, interest or claim of any
kind in or to any monies in the Trust Fund (“Claim”) and waives any Claim it may have in the future as a result of,
or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with the Company and will not seek recourse against the Trust Fund
for any reason whatsoever. This section shall survive the termination of this Agreement for any reason.

 

    9

collectively, the “Company SEC Reports”). The Company SEC Reports were prepared in all material respects in accordance
with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, as the case may be, and the rules and regulations thereunder.
The Company SEC Reports did not at the time they were filed with the SEC (except to the extent that information contained in any
Company SEC Report has been superseded by a later timely filed Company SEC Report) contain any untrue statement of a material
fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements made therein,
in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

 

    11

     

    

 

(e) Each
of the financial statements (including, in each case, any notes thereto) contained in the Company SEC Reports was prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods indicated (except

fairly presents, in all material respects, the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company as at the
respective dates thereof and for the respective periods indicated therein.

 

(f) Since
July 22, 2015, the Company has timely filed and made available to each Subscriber all certifications and statements required by

2002) with respect to any Company SEC Report (the “Company Certifications”). Each of the Company Certifications is
true and correct. The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures required by Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 under the Exchange
Act; such controls and procedures are reasonably designed to ensure that all material information concerning the Company is made
known on a timely basis to the individuals responsible for the preparation of the Company’s SEC filings and other public
disclosure documents. As used in this Section 6(f), the term “file” shall be broadly construed to include any manner
in which a document or information is furnished, supplied or otherwise made available to the SEC.

 

(g) As
of the date hereof, there are no, and since the Company’s formation, there have not been any Legal Proceeding pending or,
to the knowledge of the Company, threatened in writing against the Company, including any such Legal Proceeding that (i) challenges
the validity or enforceability of the Company’s obligations under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or (ii)
seeks to prevent, delay or otherwise would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the consummation by the Company of the transactions
contemplated herein or therein. As used in this Agreement, “Legal Proceeding” means any judicial, administrative
or arbitral actions, suits, hearings, inquiries, investigations or other proceedings (public or private) commenced, brought, conducted
or heard before, or otherwise involving, any Governmental Entity or arbitrator. As used in this Agreement, “Law”
means any material law (statutory, common or otherwise), including any material statute, ordinance, regulation, rule, code, executive
order, injunction, judgment, decree or other order of a Governmental Entity.

as and to the extent set forth on the balance sheet of the Company at September 30, 2016, including the notes thereto (the “Company
Subject Balance Sheet”), the Company has no liability or obligation of any nature (whether accrued, absolute, contingent
or otherwise), except for (i) liabilities and obligations incurred since the date of the Company Subject Balance Sheet in the
ordinary course of business that are not, individually or in the aggregate, material to the Company and none of which results
from or arises out of any material breach of or material default under any contract, material breach of warranty, tort, material
infringement or material violation of Law; (ii) liabilities and obligations incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement and other Transaction Documents; and (iii) liabilities and obligations which are not, individually or in the
aggregate, material to the Company.

10. Notification
of Changes. Each Subscriber agrees and covenants to notify the Company immediately upon the occurrence of any event prior

be false or incorrect or of any change in any statement made herein occurring prior to the Merger Closing.

 

11. Assignability;
Amendments; Waiver. This Agreement is not assignable by any Subscriber, and may not be amended, modified or terminated except
by an instrument in writing signed by the Company and any Subscriber purchasing a majority of the Common Stock to be purchased

heirs, successors and permitted assigns, provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein,
the Company and each of the Subscribers acknowledge that money damages would not be an adequate remedy at Law if any Subscriber
fails to perform in any material respect any of its obligations hereunder and accordingly agree that each party, in addition to
any other remedy to which it may be entitled at Law or in equity, shall be entitled to seek an injunction or similar equitable
relief restraining such party from committing or continuing any such breach or threatened breach or to seek to compel specific
performance of the obligations of any other party under this Agreement, without the posting of any bond, in accordance with the
terms and conditions of this Agreement in any court of the United States or any State thereof having jurisdiction, and if any

the defense that there is an adequate remedy at Law.

with the consent of the Company, until the Subscription Rejection.

 

    15

     

    

 

14. Agreement.
This Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement constitute the entire agreement of the Subscribers and the Company relating
to the matters contained herein and therein, superseding all prior contracts or agreements, whether oral or written. The headings
of this Agreement are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Agreement.

 

15. Governing
Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware,
without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof that would require the application of the laws of any jurisdiction
other than Delaware. Each of the parties consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal courts whose districts encompass
any part of the District of Delaware or the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if the Court of Chancery of the State
of Delaware lacks jurisdiction, then in the applicable Delaware state court), with respect to any dispute arising under this Agreement
and hereby waives, to the maximum extent permitted by law, any objection, including any objection based on forum non conveniens,
to the bringing of any such proceeding in such jurisdictions.

 

16. Severability.
If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Subscriber or any circumstance shall be held invalid or unenforceable
to any extent, the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other subscriptions or circumstances shall
not be affected thereby and shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by Law.

 

17. Construction.
The headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience and identification only and are not intended to describe, interpret,
define, or limit the scope, extent or intent of this Agreement or any provision hereof. The rule of construction that an agreement
shall be construed strictly against the drafter shall not apply to this Agreement.

 

18. Counterparts;
Facsimile. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall
be deemed to be an original and all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same agreement. A facsimile or other electronic
transmission of this signed Agreement shall be legal and binding on all parties hereto.

 

19. Counsel.
Each Subscriber hereby acknowledges that the Company and its counsel represent the interests of the Company and not those of any
Subscriber in any agreement (including this Agreement) to which the Company is a party.

 

20. Confidentiality.
Without limiting any of Subscriber’s pre-existing confidentiality obligations, Subscriber shall not, for a period
of one year following the date hereof, without the Company’s prior written consent, disclose to any other person or entity
the nature, extent or fact that Subscriber is entering this Agreement or the terms and conditions hereof, or any information Subscriber
may receive in connection with this Agreement (in each case to the extent the Company has communicated the confidentiality thereof)
other than (a) pursuant to the order of any court or administrative agency or in any pending legal or administrative proceeding,
or otherwise as required by applicable law or compulsory legal process (in which case Subscriber agrees, to the extent practicable
and not prohibited by applicable Law, to inform the Company promptly thereof prior to such disclosure), (b) upon the request or
demand of any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over Subscriber, (c) to the extent that such information is or becomes
publicly available other than by reason of disclosure by Subscriber in violation of this Agreement, or (d) to Subscriber’s
Affiliates and to Subscriber’s and its Affiliates’ employees, legal counsel, independent auditors and other agents
(collectively “representatives”) who need to know such information and who are informed of the confidential nature
of such information and are or have been advised of their obligation to keep information of this type confidential. Subscriber
will cause all of its and its Affiliate’s representatives to comply with the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement
as fully as if they were a party hereto and will be responsible for a breach of the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement
by any such representatives.

appropriate governmental authority) unless the payment of the dividend in respect of the Preferred Stock for the most recent dividend
period ending on or prior to the date of such declaration or payment has been declared and paid in cash or declared and a sum

Stock so long as the dividends are declared and paid pro rata so that the amounts of dividends declared per share on the Preferred
Stock and such Parity Stock shall in all cases bear to each other the same ratio that accumulated and unpaid dividends per share

holders of shares of Preferred Stock at the close of business on a Dividend Record Date shall be entitled to receive the dividend
payment on those shares on the corresponding Dividend Payment Date notwithstanding the conversion of such shares in accordance

such Dividend Payment Date. In the case of conversion of shares of Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 5 following the close
of business on a Dividend Record Date but prior to the corresponding Dividend Payment Date, the holders of such shares shall not
be entitled to receive the corresponding dividend payment following conversion (it being understood that the value thereof is
included in the conversion terms set forth in Section 5).

 

(g) Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, to the extent that any Holder’s right to participate in any Dividend would result in the
Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the rights appurtenant to such Dividend to which such Holder is entitled
pursuant hereto shall be limited to the same extent provided in Section 11 hereof.

 

(h) Except
as provided in Section 8, the Company shall make no payment or allowance for unpaid dividends, whether or not in arrears,

(a) Subject
to the restrictions set forth herein, the Company may elect to pay any dividend on the Preferred Stock: (i) in cash; (ii) by delivery
of shares of Common Stock; or (iii) through any combination of cash and Common Stock.

 

(b) If
the Company elects to make a dividend payment, or any portion thereof, in shares of Common Stock, the number of shares deliverable
shall be (i) the cash amount of such dividend payment that would apply if no payment were to be made in Common Stock, or such
portion, divided by (ii) the product of (x) the Weighted Average Price of the Common Stock for each of the 10 consecutive Trading
Days ending on the second Trading Day immediately preceding such Dividend Payment Date (as equitably adjusted by the Board to
the extent necessary for any stock splits, combinations or like transactions); multiplied by (y) 0.95; provided, that at
least 2 Trading Days prior to the beginning of the averaging period described in (ii)(x) above, the Company shall provide written
notice of such election to the Holder.

 

(c) The
Company shall make each dividend payment on the Preferred Stock in cash, except to the extent the Company elects to make all or
any portion of such payment in shares of the Common Stock (or any combination thereof) as set forth above. The Company shall give
Holders notice of any such election and the portion of such payment that will be made in cash and the portion that will be made
in shares of the Common Stock no later than 12 Trading Days prior to the Dividend Payment Date for such dividend.

 

(5) Conversion
Upon a Fundamental Change.

 

(a) The
Company must give notice (a “Fundamental Change Notice”) of each Fundamental Change to all Holders of the Preferred
Stock no later than 10 Business Days prior to the anticipated Effective Date (determined in good faith by the Board) of the Fundamental
Change or, if not practicable because the Company is unaware of the Fundamental Change, as soon as reasonably practicable but
in any event no later than 1 Business Day after the Company becomes aware of such Fundamental Change.

 

(b) Within
15 days following the Effective Date of such Fundamental Change, each Outstanding share of the Preferred Stock shall (subject
to the limitations set forth in Section 11), at the election of the Holder thereof pursuant to the delivery of a Notice of Conversion,
be converted into a number of shares of Common Stock equal to (i) the greater of (A) the sum of the Conversion Rate on the Effective
Date of such Fundamental Change plus the Fundamental Change Additional Shares and (B) the quotient of (x) the Liquidation Preference,
divided by (y) the greater of (1) the applicable Holder Stock Price and (2) 662⁄3% of the Closing Sale Price of the Common
Stock on the Issue Date (it being understood that for purposes of this Section 5(b), the Closing Sale Price shall be adjusted
proportionally in the event of any stock split, stock dividend, issuance of rights, options or warrants or other event that would
result in an adjustment to the Conversion Right pursuant to Section 8(e)) plus (ii) the number of shares of the Common Stock that
would be issued if any and all accumulated and unpaid dividends were paid in shares of the Common Stock in accordance with the
terms hereof. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, prior to the receipt of Shareholder Approval, shares
of Preferred Stock shall not be convertible pursuant to this Section 5 in the aggregate into more than the Conversion Cap. As
used herein, “Holder Stock Price” means (i) in the case of a Fundamental Change in which the Holders of Common Stock
will receive only cash consideration, the price to be paid (or deemed paid) per share of Common Stock in such transaction and
(ii) in all other cases, the average Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the 10 consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding
the Effective Date of the Fundamental Change.

 

    Ex A-11

     

    

 

(c) The
Fundamental Change Notice shall be given by first-class mail to each record holder of shares of Preferred Stock, at such Holder’s
address as the same appears on the books of the Company. Each such notice shall state (i) the anticipated Effective Date and (ii)
that dividends on the Preferred Stock to be converted will cease to accrue on the date immediately preceding the Effective Date
of the Fundamental Change.

 

(d) Whenever
any provision of this Certificate of Designations requires the Company to calculate the Weighted Average Price or Closing Sale
Price for purposes of a Fundamental Change over a span of multiple days, the Board shall make appropriate adjustments to account
for any adjustment to the Conversion Rate that becomes effective, or any event requiring an adjustment to the Conversion Rate
where the Record Date of the event occurs, at any time during the period when such Weighted Average Prices or Closing Sale Prices
are to be calculated.

 

(6) Voting.
The shares of Preferred Stock shall have no voting rights except as set forth in this Section 6 or otherwise required by Delaware
law. So long as any shares of Preferred Stock remain Outstanding, unless a greater percentage shall then be required by law, the
Company shall not, without the affirmative vote or consent of a) the Holders of at least 50.1% of the shares of Preferred
Stock Outstanding at the time, voting together as a single class with all series of Parity Stock upon which similar voting rights
have been conferred and are exercisable, given in person or by proxy, either in writing or at a meeting, amend, alter or repeal
the provisions of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, so as
to materially and adversely affect any right, preference, privilege or voting powers of the shares of Preferred Stock; provided,
however, that so long as any shares of Preferred Stock remain Outstanding with the terms thereof materially unchanged,
such amendment, alteration or repeal shall not be deemed to materially and adversely affect such rights, preferences, privileges
or voting powers of Holders of the shares of Preferred Stock and, provided further, that any increase in the amount
of authorized preferred stock (including, without limitation, additional Preferred Stock) or the creation or issuance of any additional
shares of Preferred Stock or other series of preferred stock, or any increase in the amount of authorized shares of such series,
in each case of Parity Stock or Junior Stock, shall not be deemed to materially and adversely affect the rights, preferences,
privileges or voting powers of Holders of shares of Preferred Stock specified herein and b) for so long as there is any Required
Holder, the Required Holder(s), given in person or by proxy, either in writing or at a meeting, amend, alter or repeal the provisions
of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, so as to effect a Material
Change.

 

(7) Liquidation
Rights.

 

(a) In
the event of any liquidation, winding-up or dissolution of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, each Holder of shares
of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive and to be paid out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to
its stockholders the Liquidation Preference plus all accumulated and unpaid dividends in respect of the Preferred Stock (whether
or not declared) to the date fixed for liquidation, winding-up or dissolution in preference to the holders of, and before any
payment or distribution is made on, any Junior Stock, including, without limitation, the Common Stock.

 

    Ex A-12

     

    

 

(b) Neither
the sale (for cash, shares of stock, securities or other consideration) of all or substantially all the assets or business of
the Company (other than in connection with the liquidation, winding-up or dissolution of the Company) nor the merger or consolidation
of the Company into or with any other Person shall be deemed to be a liquidation, winding-up or dissolution, voluntary or involuntary,
for the purposes of this Section 7.

 

(c) After
the payment to the Holders of the shares of Preferred Stock of full preferential amounts provided for in this Section 7,
the Holders of Preferred Stock as such shall have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Company.

 

(d) In
the event the assets of the Company available for distribution to the Holders of shares of Preferred Stock and holders of shares
of Parity Stock upon any liquidation, winding-up or dissolution of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, shall be insufficient
to pay in full all amounts to which such Holders are entitled pursuant to this Section 7, no such distribution shall be made
on account of any shares of Parity Stock upon such liquidation, dissolution or winding-up unless proportionate distributable amounts
shall be paid on account of the shares of Preferred Stock, equally and ratably, in proportion to the full distributable amounts
for which holders of all Preferred Stock and of any Parity Stock are entitled upon such liquidation, winding-up or dissolution.

 

(8) Conversion.

 

(a) Each
Holder of Preferred Stock shall have the right at any time, at its option, to convert, subject to the terms and provisions of
this Section 8, any or all of such Holder’s shares of Preferred Stock into Common Stock at a conversion rate equal
to the quotient of (i) the Liquidation Preference; divided by (ii) the Base Conversion Price (subject to adjustment
as provided in this Section 8, the “Conversion Rate”) per share of Preferred Stock (subject to the limitations
set forth in Section 11). Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to the Conversion Cap, each Holder of Preferred Stock
shall have the right (the “Seven-Year Holder Conversion Right”) at any time after the seven-year anniversary
of the Issue Date, if the then-current Conversion Price exceeds the Weighted Average Price for the Common Stock during any 10
consecutive Trading Days, at its option by delivery of a Notice of Conversion in accordance with Section 8(b) below no later
than 5 Business Days following such 10th consecutive Trading Day, to convert any or all of such Holder’s shares
of Preferred Stock into, at the Company’s sole discretion, either Common Stock, cash or a combination of Common Stock and
cash; provided, that the Company shall provide such converting Holder notice of its election within 2 Trading Days of receipt
of the Notice of Conversion; provided further, that in the event the Company elects to issue Common Stock for all
or a portion of such conversion, the “Conversion Rate” for such conversion (subject to the limitations set forth in
Section 11) shall mean the quotient of the Liquidation Preference divided by the average Weighted Average Price for
the Common Stock during the 20 consecutive Trading Days commencing on the Trading Day immediately following the Trading Day on
which the Company provided such notice. If the Company does not elect a settlement method prior to the deadline set forth, the
Company shall be deemed to have elected to settle the conversion entirely in Common Stock. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, prior to the receipt of Shareholder Approval, shares of Preferred Stock shall not be converted pursuant to this Section 8
in the aggregate into more than 19.99% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding on the Issue Date (subject to appropriate adjustment
in the event of a stock split, stock dividend, combination or other similar recapitalization) (such limitation, the “Conversion
Cap”). Upon conversion of any share of Preferred Stock, the Company shall deliver to the converting Holder, in respect
of each share of Preferred Stock being converted, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate, together with
a cash payment in lieu of any fractional share of Common Stock in accordance with Section 10, on the third Business Day immediately
following the relevant Conversion Date; provided, that upon any Holder’s election to convert any share or shares
of Preferred Stock pursuant to the second sentence of this Section 8(a), the Company shall have the option to deliver the
applicable conversion value (or any portion thereof) in cash in lieu of shares of Common Stock, after providing such Holder at
least 2 Business Days’ prior written notice of its election pursuant to this proviso; provided further, that any
such payment in cash in lieu of shares of Common Stock shall be made in an amount equal to the Liquidation Preference for every
whole share of Preferred Stock so converted; provided further, that if the conversion value consists (x) solely of
cash, then the Company shall deliver such cash payment to the Holder no later than 3 Trading Days from the receipt of the Notice
of Conversion or (y) partially of cash, then the Company shall deliver such cash payment to the Holder simultaneously with
the delivery of the Common Stock included in the conversion value.

 

    Ex A-13

     

    

 

(b) Before
any Holder shall be entitled to convert a share of Preferred Stock as set forth above, such Holder who:

 

(i) holds
a beneficial interest in a Global Preferred Share must deliver to DTC the appropriate instruction form for conversion pursuant
to DTC’s conversion program (a “Conversion Instruction”) and, if required, pay all transfer or similar
taxes or duties, if any; or

 

(ii) holds
Preferred Stock in definitive, certificated form must:

 

(A)
manually sign and deliver an irrevocable notice to the office of the Conversion Agent as set forth in the Form of Certificated
Notice of Conversion (or a facsimile thereof) in the form included in Exhibit A hereto (a “Certificated Notice
of Conversion”) and state in writing therein the number of shares of Preferred Stock to be converted and the name or
names (with addresses) in which such Holder wishes the certificate or certificates for any shares of Common Stock, if any, to
be delivered and registered;

 

(B)surrender
such shares of Preferred Stock, at the office of the Conversion Agent;

 

(C)if
required, furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents; and

 

(D)if
required, pay all transfer or similar taxes or duties, if any.

 

The
Conversion Agent shall notify the Company of any pending conversion pursuant to this Section 8 on the Conversion Date for
such conversion. The date on which a Holder complies with the procedures in this clause (b) is the “Conversion Date.”
If more than one share of Preferred Stock shall be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same Holder, the number of shares
of Common Stock to be delivered upon conversion of such shares of Preferred Stock shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate
number of shares of Preferred Stock so surrendered.

 

    Ex A-14

     

    

 

(c) With
respect to any conversion of shares of Preferred Stock:

 

(i) if
there shall have been surrendered certificate or certificates, as the case may be, representing a greater number of shares of
Preferred Stock than the number of shares of Preferred Stock to be converted, the Company shall execute and the Registrar shall
countersign and deliver to such Holder or such Holder’s designee, at the expense of the Company, new certificate or certificates,
as the case may be, representing the number of shares of Preferred Stock that shall not have been converted; and

 

(ii) if
the shares of Preferred Stock converted are held in book-entry form through the facilities of the Depositary, promptly following
the relevant Conversion Date, the Company shall cause the Transfer Agent and Registrar to reduce the number of shares of Preferred
Stock represented by the global certificate by making a notation on Schedule I attached to the relevant Global Preferred Share.

 

(d) Immediately
prior to the close of business on the Conversion Date with respect to a conversion, a converting Holder of Preferred Stock shall
be deemed to be the holder of record of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such Holder’s Preferred Stock notwithstanding
that the share register of the Company shall then be closed or that certificates representing such Common Stock, if any, shall
not then be actually delivered to such Holder. On the date of any conversion, all rights with respect to the shares of Preferred
Stock so converted, including the rights, if any, to receive notices, will terminate, excepting only the rights of holders thereof
(i) pursuant to Section 3(f) and (ii) to (A) receive certificates for the number of whole shares of Common Stock, if any, into
which such shares of Preferred Stock have been converted (with a cash payment in lieu of any fractional share of Common Stock
in accordance with Section 10) and (B) exercise the rights to which they are thereafter entitled as holders of Common Stock, if
any.

 

    Ex A-15

     

    

 

(e) The
Conversion Rate shall be adjusted, without duplication, upon the occurrence of any of the following events:

 

(i) If
the Company exclusively issues shares of Common Stock as a dividend or distribution on all shares of its Common Stock, or if the
Company effects a share split or share combination, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

 

  

 

	 	where,	 	 
	 	 	 	 
	 	CR0	=	the
    Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution,
    or immediately prior to the open of business on the Effective Date of such share split or share combination, as the case may
    be;
	 	 	 	 
	 	CR1	=	the
    Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution, or
    immediately after the open of business on the Effective Date of such share split or share combination, as the case may be;
	 	 	 	 
	 	OS0	=	the
    number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend
    or distribution, or immediately prior to the open of business on the Effective Date of such share split or share combination,
    as the case may be; and
	 	 	 	 
	 	OS1	=	the
    number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such dividend or distribution, or such share
    split or share combination, as the case may be.

 

Any
adjustment made under this Section 8(e)(i) shall become effective immediately after the close of business on the Record Date
for such dividend or distribution, or immediately after the open of business on the Effective Date for such share split or share
combination, as the case may be. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this Section 8(e)(i) is declared
but not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board determines not
to pay such dividend or distribution, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had
not been declared.

 

    Ex A-16

     

    

 

(ii) If
the Company distributes to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock any rights, options or warrants entitling them,
for a period expiring not more than 60 days immediately following the announcement date of such distribution, to purchase or subscribe
for shares of its Common Stock at a price per share that is less than the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock
over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Date of such
distribution, the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

 

 

 

	 	where,	 	 
	 	 	 	 
	 	CR0	=	the
    Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date for such distribution;
	 	 	 	 
	 	CR1	=	the
    Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the close of business on the Record Date for such distribution;
	 	 	 	 
	 	OS0	=	the
    number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date for such distribution;
	 	 	 	 
	 	X	=	the
    total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants; and
	 	 	 	 
	 	Y	=	the
    number of shares of Common Stock equal to the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, divided
    by the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including,
    the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Date of such distribution.

 

Any
increase made under this Section 8(e)(ii) shall be made successively whenever any such rights, options or warrants are distributed
and shall become effective immediately after the close of business on the Record Date for such distribution. To the extent that
shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights, options or warrants, the Conversion Rate shall be
readjusted, effective as of the date of such expiration, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the increase
with respect to the distribution of such rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of
shares of Common Stock actually delivered. If such rights, options or warrants are not so distributed, the Conversion Rate shall
be decreased, effective as of the date the Board determines not to make such distribution, to be the Conversion Rate that would
then be in effect if such Record Date for such distribution had not occurred. If such rights, options or warrants are only exercisable
upon the occurrence of certain triggering events, then the Conversion Rate shall not be adjusted until the triggering events occur.

 

    Ex A-17

     

    

 

For
purposes of this Section 8(e)(ii), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe
for or purchase shares of Common Stock at less than such average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the 10 consecutive
Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Date of such distribution, and in determining
the aggregate offering price of such shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the
Company for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise or conversion thereof, the value of such consideration,
if other than cash, to be determined by the Board.

 

(iii) If
the Company distributes shares of its Capital Stock, evidences of its indebtedness or other assets, securities or property of
the Company or rights, options or warrants to acquire its Capital Stock or other securities, to all or substantially all holders
of Common Stock, excluding (a) dividends, distributions or issuances as to which an adjustment was effected pursuant to Section 8(e)(i)
or Section 8(e)(ii), (b) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash as to which an adjustment was effected
pursuant to (or a cash amount paid pursuant to the last paragraph of) Section 8(e)(iv) and (c) Spin-Offs as to which
the provisions set forth below in this Section 8(e)(iii) shall apply (any of such shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness,
other assets, securities or property or rights, options or warrants to acquire Capital Stock or other securities, the “Distributed
Property”), then the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

 

 

 

	 	where,	 	 
	 	 	 	 
	 	CR0	=	the
    Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date for such distribution;
	 	 	 	 
	 	CR1	=	the
    Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the close of business on the Record Date for such distribution;
	 	 	 	 
	 	SP0	=	the
    average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including,
    the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Date for such distribution; and
	 	 	 	 
	 	FMV
    	=	the
    fair market value as of the Record Date for such distribution (as determined by the Board) of the Distributed Property with
    respect to each outstanding share of the Common Stock.

 

Any
increase made under the portion of this Section 8(e)(iii) above shall become effective immediately after the close of business
on the Record Date for such distribution. If such distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased,
effective as of the date the Board determines not to pay the distribution, to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect
if such distribution had not been declared.

 

    Ex A-18

     

    

 

Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if “FMV” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP0” (as defined above),
in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder of Preferred Stock shall receive, for each share of Preferred Stock, at the same
time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock, the amount and kind of Distributed Property that such Holder would
have received as if such Holder owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate (determined without regard
to the Conversion Cap or Beneficial Ownership Limitation) in effect on the Record Date for the distribution.

 

With
respect to an adjustment pursuant to this Section 8(e)(iii) where there has been a payment of a dividend or other distribution
on the Common Stock consisting solely of shares of Capital Stock of any class or series, or similar equity interests, of or relating
to a Subsidiary or other business unit of the Company where such Capital Stock or similar equity interest is, or will be when
issued, listed or admitted for trading on a U.S. national securities exchange (a “Spin-Off”), the Conversion Rate
will be increased based on the following formula:

 

 

 

	 	where,	 	 
	 	 	 	 
	 	CR0	=	the
    Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the 10th Trading Day immediately following, and including,
    the Ex-Date for the Spin-Off;
	 	 	 	 
	 	CR1	=	the
    Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the close of business on the 10th Trading Day immediately following, and including,
    the Ex-Date for the Spin-Off;
	 	 	 	 
	 	FMV
    	=	the
    average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Capital Stock or similar equity interest distributed to holders of the Common Stock
    applicable to one share of Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period immediately following, and including, the
    Ex-Date for the Spin-Off; and
	 	 	 	 
	 	MP0	=	the
    average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period immediately following, and
    including, the Ex-Date for the Spin-Off.

 

The
adjustment to the Conversion Rate under the preceding paragraph shall become effective at the close of business on the 10th Trading
Day immediately following, and including, the Ex-Date for the Spin-Off; provided that, for purposes of determining the
Conversion Rate, in respect of any conversion during the 10 Trading Days following, and including, the Ex-Date of any Spin-Off,
references within the portion of this Section 8(e)(iii) related to Spin-Offs to 10 consecutive Trading Days shall be deemed
to be replaced with such lesser number of consecutive Trading Days as have elapsed between the Ex-Date of such Spin-Off and the
relevant Conversion Date.

 

    Ex A-19

     

    

 

(iv) If
any cash dividend or distribution is made to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, excluding any consideration
payable in connection with a tender or exchange offer made by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, the Conversion Rate shall
be increased based on the following formula:

 

 

 

	 	where,	 	 
	 	 	 	 
	 	CR0	=	the
    Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution;
	 	 	 	 
	 	CR1	=	the
    Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution;
	 	 	 	 
	 	SP0	=	the
    average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including,
    the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution; and
	 	 	 	 
	 	C
    	=	the
    amount in cash per share of Common Stock the Company distributes to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock.

 

Any
increase pursuant to this Section 8(e)(iv) shall become effective immediately after the close of business on the Record Date
for such dividend or distribution. If such dividend or distribution is not so paid, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased, effective
as of the date the Board determines not to pay or make such dividend or distribution, to be the Conversion Rate that would then
be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

 

Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if “C” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP0” (as defined above),
in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder of Preferred Stock shall receive, for each share of Preferred Stock, at the same
time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock, the amount of cash that such Holder would have received as if such
Holder owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate on the Record Date for such cash dividend or distribution
(determined without regard to the Conversion Cap or Beneficial Ownership Limitation).

 

    Ex A-20

     

    

 

(v) If
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries makes a payment in respect of a tender offer or exchange offer for the Common Stock and
the cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per share of the Common Stock exceeds the average of the
Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period commencing on, and including, the Trading Day
next succeeding the last date on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer, the Conversion
Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

 

 

 

	 	where,	 	 
	 	 	 	 
	 	CR0	=	the
    Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the last Trading Day of the 10 consecutive Trading
    Day period commencing on, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires;
	 	 	 	 
	 	CR1	=	the
    Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the close of business on the last Trading Day of the 10 consecutive Trading Day
    period commencing on, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires;
	 	 	 	 
	 	AC
    	=	the
    aggregate value of all cash and any other consideration (as determined by the Board) paid or payable for shares of Common
    Stock purchased in such tender or exchange offer;
	 	 	 	 
	 	OS0	=	the
    number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the date such tender or exchange offer expires (prior to
    giving effect to the purchase of all shares of Common Stock accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer);
	 	 	 	 
	 	OS1	=	the
    number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the date such tender or exchange offer expires (after giving
    effect to the purchase of all shares of Common Stock accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer);
    and
	 	 	 	 
	 	SP1	=	the
    average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period commencing on, and including,
    the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires.

 

The
increase to the Conversion Rate under this Section 8(e)(v) shall occur at the close of business on the 10th Trading Day immediately
following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires; provided that,
for purposes of determining the Conversion Rate, in respect of any conversion during the 10 Trading Days immediately following,
and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the date that any such tender or exchange offer expires, references within this
Section 8(e)(v) to 10 consecutive Trading Days shall be deemed to be replaced with such lesser number of consecutive Trading
Days as have elapsed between the date such tender or exchange offer expires and the relevant Conversion Date.

 

    Ex A-21

     

    

 

In
the event that the Company or one of its Subsidiaries is obligated to purchase shares of Common Stock pursuant to any such tender
offer or exchange offer, but the Company or such Subsidiary is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any such
purchases, or all such purchases are rescinded, then the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to be such Conversion Rate that would
then be in effect if such tender offer or exchange offer had not been made.

 

(vi) All
calculations and other determinations under this Section 8(e) shall be made by the Company and shall be made to the nearest
one-ten thousandth (1/10,000th) of a share. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no adjustment under this Section 8(e)
shall be made to the Conversion Rate unless such adjustment would result in a change of at least 1% in the Conversion Rate then
in effect. Any lesser adjustment shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time of and together with the next subsequent
adjustment, if any, which, together with any adjustment or adjustments so carried forward, shall amount to a change of at least
1% in such Conversion Rate; provided, however, that the Company shall make such carried-forward adjustments, regardless
of whether the aggregate adjustment is less than 1%, (a) on December 31 of each calendar year, (b) on the Conversion
Date for any conversions of Preferred Stock, (c) upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Change and (d) in the event that
the Company exercises its mandatory conversion right pursuant to Section 9. No adjustment to the Conversion Rate shall be
made if it results in a Conversion Price that is less than the par value (if any) of the Common Stock.

 

(vii) In
addition to those adjustments required by clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) of this Section 8(e), and to the extent
permitted by applicable law and subject to the applicable rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market, the Company from time to time may
increase the Conversion Rate by any amount for a period of at least 20 Business Days or any longer period permitted or required
by law if the increase is irrevocable during that period and the Board determines that such increase would be in the Company’s
best interest. In addition, the Company may (but is not required to) increase the Conversion Rate to avoid or diminish any income
tax to holders of Common Stock or rights to purchase Common Stock in connection with a dividend or distribution of shares (or
rights to acquire shares) or similar event. Whenever the Conversion Rate is increased pursuant to any of the preceding two sentences,
the Company shall mail to the Holder of each share of Preferred Stock at its last address appearing on the stock register of the
Company a notice of the increase at least 15 days prior to the date the increased Conversion Rate takes effect, and such notice
shall state the increased Conversion Rate and the period during which it will be in effect.

 

(viii) For
purposes of this Section 8(e), the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held
in the treasury of the Company so long as the Company does not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock
held in the treasury of the Company, but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions
of shares of Common Stock.

 

    Ex A-22

     

    

 

(f) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in Section 8(e), no adjustment to the Conversion Rate shall be made with respect to any transaction
described in Section 8(e)(i) through Section 8(e)(iv) if the Company makes provision for each Holder of the Preferred
Stock to participate in such transaction, at the same time as holders of the Common Stock, without conversion, as if such Holder
held a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Record Date or Effective Date, as the case
may be, for such transaction, multiplied by the number of shares of Preferred Stock held by such Holder (determined without regard
to the Conversion Cap or Beneficial Ownership Limitation). No adjustment to the Conversion Rate shall be made with respect to
any transaction described in Section 8(e)(v) if the Company makes provision for each Holder of the Preferred Stock to participate
in such transaction, at the same time as holders of the Common Stock as if such Holder held a number of shares of Common Stock
equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Record Date or Effective Date, as the case may be, for such transaction, multiplied
by the number of shares of Preferred Stock held by such Holder (determined without regard to the Conversion Cap or Beneficial
Ownership Limitation).

 

(g) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, no adjustment to the Conversion Rate shall be made pursuant to this Section 8 in respect
of the issuance of any Excluded Securities.

 

(h) If
the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive an extraordinary
dividend or other distribution, and shall thereafter (and before the extraordinary dividend or distribution has been paid or delivered
to stockholders) legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such extraordinary dividend or distribution, then thereafter no adjustment
in the Conversion Rate then in effect shall be required by reason of the taking of such record.

 

(i) Upon
any increase in the Conversion Rate, the Company shall deliver to each Holder, as promptly as practicable, a certificate signed
by an authorized officer of the Company, setting forth in reasonable detail the event requiring the adjustment and the method
by which such adjustment was calculated and specifying the increased Conversion Rate then in effect following such adjustment.

 

(j) In
the case of:

 

(i) any
recapitalization, reclassification or change of the Common Stock (other than changes resulting from a subdivision or combination),

 

(ii) any
consolidation, merger or combination involving the Company,

 

(iii) any
sale, lease or other transfer to a third party of the consolidated assets of the Company and the Company’s Subsidiaries
substantially as an entirety, or

 

(iv) any
statutory share exchange,

 

    Ex A-23

     

    

 

as
a result of which the Common Stock is converted into, or exchanged for, stock, other securities, other property or assets (including
cash or any combination thereof) (any such transaction or event, a “Reorganization Event”), then, at and after
the effective time of such Reorganization Event, the right to convert each share of Preferred Stock shall be changed into a right
to convert such share into the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash
or any combination thereof) that a holder of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate immediately prior
to such Reorganization Event would have owned or been entitled to receive upon such Reorganization Event (such stock, securities
or other property or assets, the “Reference Property”). If the Reorganization Event causes the Common Stock
to be converted into, or exchanged for, the right to receive more than a single type of consideration (determined based in part
upon any form of stockholder election), then the Reference Property into which the Preferred Stock will be convertible shall be
deemed to be the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration received by the holders of Common Stock that affirmatively
make such an election. The Company shall notify Holders of such weighted average as soon as practicable after such determination
is made. None of the foregoing provisions shall affect the right of a Holder of Preferred Stock to convert its Preferred Stock
into shares of Common Stock as set forth in Section 8(a) prior to the effective time of such Reorganization Event. Notwithstanding
Section 8(e), no adjustment to the Conversion Rate shall be made for any Reorganization Event to the extent stock, securities
or other property or assets become the Reference Property receivable upon conversion of Preferred Stock.

 

The
Company shall provide, by amendment hereto effective upon any such Reorganization Event, for anti-dilution and other adjustments
that shall be as nearly equivalent as is possible to the adjustments provided for in this Section 8. The provisions of this
Section 8 shall apply to successive Reorganization Events.

 

In
this Certificate of Designations, if the Common Stock has been replaced by Reference Property as a result of any such Reorganization
Event, references to the Common Stock are intended to refer to such Reference Property.

 

(k) The
Company shall at all times reserve and keep available for issuance upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock a number of its
authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock equal to the aggregate Liquidation Preference divided by the Conversion Price on
the Issue Date, and shall take all action required to increase the authorized number of shares of Common Stock if at any time
there shall be insufficient unissued shares of Common Stock to permit such reservation or to permit the conversion of all Outstanding
shares of Preferred Stock or the payment or partial payment of dividends declared on Preferred Stock that are payable in Common
Stock.

 

(l) For
the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved
in the issuance and delivery of any such certificate in a name other than that of the holder of the shares of the relevant Preferred
Stock and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificate unless or until the Person or Persons requesting
the issuance or delivery thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the reasonable
satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.

 

    Ex A-24

     

    

 

(m) Shares
of Preferred Stock shall immediately and permanently cease to be subject to the Conversion Cap for purposes of this Section 8
and Sections 5 and 9 upon the receipt of Shareholder Approval. For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything in
the Certificate of Designations to the contrary, the Conversion Cap shall not in any way limit the amounts to accrue or be paid
as dividends. Shares of Preferred Stock not convertible as a result of the Conversion Cap shall remain Outstanding and shall become
convertible by such Holder or another Holder to the extent the Conversion Cap no longer applies. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Conversion Cap shall have no effect on any adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 8.

 

(n) Notwithstanding
Sections 8(e)(ii) and 8(e)(iii), if the Company has a rights plan (including, without limitation, the distribution of rights
pursuant thereto to all holders of the Common Stock) in effect while any shares of Preferred Stock remain Outstanding, Holders
of Preferred Stock will receive, upon conversion of Preferred Stock, in addition to the Common Stock to which a Holder is entitled,
a corresponding number of rights in accordance with the rights plan. If, prior to any conversion, such rights have separated from
the shares of Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of the applicable rights plan so that Holders of Preferred Stock
would not be entitled to receive any rights in respect of the Common Stock delivered upon conversion of Preferred Stock, the Conversion
Rate will be adjusted at the time of separation, as if the Company had distributed to all holders of its Common Stock, shares
of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, assets, securities, property, rights, options or warrants as described in Section 8(e)(iii)
above, subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights.

 

(9) Mandatory
Conversion.

 

(a) During
the period on or after the 3-year anniversary of the Issue Date but prior to the 5-year anniversary of the Issue Date (the “First
Mandatory Conversion Period”), the Company shall have the right, at its option, to give notice of its election to cause
all Outstanding shares of Preferred Stock to be automatically converted into that number of whole shares of Common Stock for each
share of Preferred Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Mandatory Conversion Date (subject to the limitations set
forth in Section 11), with cash in lieu of any fractional share pursuant to Section 10. The Company may exercise its
right to cause a mandatory conversion pursuant to this Section 9(a) only if the Weighted Average Price of the Common Stock
equals or exceeds 140% (such percentage, the “First Mandatory Conversion Premium”) of the then-current Conversion
Price for at least 20 Trading Days (whether or not consecutive) in a period of 30 consecutive Trading Days, including the last
Trading Day of such 30-day period, ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Business Day on which the
Company issues a press release announcing the mandatory conversion as described in Section 9(d).

 

(b) During
the period on or after the 5-year anniversary of the Issue Date but prior to the 7-year anniversary of the Issue Date (the “Second
Mandatory Conversion Period”), the Company shall have the right, at its option, to give notice of its election to cause
all Outstanding shares of Preferred Stock to be automatically converted into that number of whole shares of Common Stock for each
share of Preferred Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Mandatory Conversion Date (subject to the limitations set
forth in Section 11), with cash in lieu of any fractional share pursuant to Section 10. The Company may exercise its
right to cause a mandatory conversion pursuant to this Section 9 only if the Weighted Average Price of the Common Stock equals
or exceeds 115% (such percentage, the “Second Mandatory Conversion Premium”) of the then-current Conversion
Price for at least 20 Trading Days (whether or not consecutive) in a period of 30 consecutive Trading Days, including the last
Trading Day of such 30-day period, ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Business Day on which the
Company issues a press release announcing the mandatory conversion as described in Section 9(d).

 

    Ex A-25

     

    

 

(c) On
or after the 7-year anniversary of the Issue Date (the “Final Mandatory Conversion Period”), the Company shall
have the right, at its option, to give notice of its election to cause all Outstanding shares of Preferred Stock to be automatically
converted into that number of whole shares of Common Stock for each share of Preferred Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect
on the Mandatory Conversion Date (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 11), with cash in lieu of any fractional
share pursuant to Section 10. The Company may exercise its right to cause a mandatory conversion pursuant to this Section 9(c)
only if the Weighted Average Price of the Common Stock equals or exceeds the Conversion Price for at least 10 consecutive Trading
Days, ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Business Day on which the Company issues a press release
announcing the mandatory conversion as described in Section 9(d).

 

(d) To
exercise any mandatory conversion right described in Sections 9(a) through 9(c), the Company must issue a press release for
publication on the Dow Jones News Service or Bloomberg Business News (or if either such service is not available, another broadly
disseminated news or press release service selected by the Company) prior to the open of business on the first Trading Day following
any date on which the condition described in any of Sections 9(a) through 9(c) is met, announcing such a mandatory conversion.
The Company shall also give notice by mail or by publication (with subsequent prompt notice by mail) to the Holders of the Preferred
Stock (not later than 3 Business Days after the date of the press release) of the mandatory conversion announcing the Company’s
intention to convert the Preferred Stock. The conversion date will be a date selected by the Company (the “Mandatory
Conversion Date”) and will be no fewer than 15 Trading Days, nor more than 20 Trading Days, after the date on which
the Company issues the press release described in this Section 9(d). Upon conversion of any Preferred Stock pursuant to this
Section 9, the Company shall deliver to the applicable Holder the applicable number of shares of Common Stock, together
with any applicable cash payment in lieu of any fractional share of Common Stock, on the 3rd Business Day immediately following
the relevant Mandatory Conversion Date.

 

(e) In
addition to any information required by applicable law or regulation, the press release and notice of a mandatory conversion described
in Section 9 shall state, as appropriate: (i) the Mandatory Conversion Date; (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued
upon conversion of each share of Preferred Stock; and (iii) that dividends on the Preferred Stock to be converted will cease to
accrue on the Mandatory Conversion Date.

 

(f) On
and after the Mandatory Conversion Date, dividends shall cease to accrue on the Preferred Stock called for a mandatory conversion
pursuant to Section 9 and all rights of Holders of such Preferred Stock shall terminate except for the right to receive the
whole shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof with a cash payment in lieu of any fractional share of Common Stock
in accordance with Section 10. The full amount of any dividend payment with respect to the Preferred Stock called for a mandatory
conversion pursuant to Section 9 on a date during the period beginning at the close of business on any Dividend Record Date
and ending on the close of business on the corresponding Dividend Payment Date shall be payable on such Dividend Payment Date
to the record holder of such share at the close of business on such Dividend Record Date if such share has been converted after
such Dividend Record Date and prior to such Dividend Payment Date. Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence with
respect to a mandatory conversion pursuant to Section 9, no payment or adjustment shall be made upon conversion of Preferred
Stock for dividends with respect to the Common Stock issued upon such conversion thereof.

 

    Ex A-26

     

    

 

(g) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Section 9, prior to the receipt of Shareholder Approval, shares of Preferred Stock shall
not be convertible pursuant to Sections 9(a), (b) or (c) in the aggregate into more than the Conversion Cap.

 

(10) No
Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock or securities representing fractional shares of Common Stock shall
be delivered upon conversion, whether voluntary or mandatory, of the Preferred Stock. Instead, the Company will make a cash payment
to each Holder that would otherwise be entitled to a fractional share based on the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the
relevant Conversion Date; provided, however, that the Company may round such fractional share up to the next highest
whole number of shares in lieu of making such cash payment.

 

(11) Beneficial
Ownership Limitation; Certain Other Transfer Restrictions.

 

(a) Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not effect any conversion of the Preferred Stock, and a Holder shall not have
the right to convert any portion of the Preferred Stock, in each case to the extent that, after giving effect to such conversion,
such Holder would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. For purposes of this Section 11(a),
beneficial ownership of a Holder shall be calculated in accordance with Section 16(a) and (b) of the Exchange Act and the
rules and regulations promulgated thereunder for purposes of determining whether such Holder is subject to the reporting and liability
provisions of Section 16(a) and 16(b) of the Exchange Act. For purposes of complying with this Section 11(a), the Company
shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the information set forth in any Holder’s Notice of Conversion, and each Holder
delivering a Notice of Conversion shall be deemed to represent to the Company that such Notice of Conversion does not violate
the restrictions set forth in this paragraph, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such
representation. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall, within 2 Trading Days, confirm orally and
in writing to such Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. By written notice to the Company, a Holder may
from time to time increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation applicable solely to such Holder to any other percentage;
provided that any such increase or decrease will not be effective until the 65th day after such notice is delivered
to the Company. The express purpose of this Section 11 is to preclude any Holder’s ownership of any shares of Preferred
Stock from causing such Holder to become subject to the reporting and liability provisions of Section 16(a) and 16(b) of
the Exchange Act, including pursuant to Rule 16a-2 promulgated by the Commission, and this Section 11 shall be interpreted
according to such express purpose. Solely for purposes of this Section 11(a), the term “Holder” shall include
all persons whose beneficial ownership of the Common Stock is aggregated pursuant to Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act
or Rule 13d-5 thereunder.

 

    Ex A-27

     

    

 

(b) Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, no Preferred Stock may be owned by or transferred to any Holder or beneficial owner
that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and any transfer made or effected in violation of this
Section 11(b) shall be void ab initio.

 

(c) Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, prior to receipt of Shareholder Approval conversion of the Preferred Stock shall at
all times be limited by the Conversion Cap.

 

(12) Transfer
Agent and Registrar. The duly appointed transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) and Registrar (the “Registrar”)
for the Preferred Stock shall be Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company. The Company may, in its sole discretion, remove
the Transfer Agent in accordance with the agreement between the Company and the Transfer Agent; provided that the Company
shall appoint a successor transfer agent who shall accept such appointment prior to the effectiveness of such removal. For the
avoidance of doubt, the Company shall notify the Registrar in writing upon the Company’s or any of its Affiliates’
purchases or sales of Preferred Stock.

 

(13) Certificates;
Restrictions on Transfer.

 

(a) If
physical certificates are issued, then the Company shall, upon written request of a Holder, issue certificates in definitive form
representing the shares of Preferred Stock held by such Holder. Every share of Preferred Stock that bears or is required under
this Section 13(a) to bear the legend set forth in Section 13(b) (together with any Common Stock issued upon conversion
of the Preferred Stock that is required to bear the legend set forth in Section 13(b), collectively “Restricted
Securities”) shall be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 11(b) and this Section 13(a)
(including the legend set forth below), unless such restrictions on transfer shall be eliminated or otherwise waived by written
consent of the Company, and the Holder of each such Restricted Security, by such Holder’s acceptance thereof, agrees to
be bound by all such restrictions on transfer. As used in this Section 13(a) and in Section 13(b), the term “transfer”
encompasses any sale, pledge, transfer or other disposition whatsoever of any Restricted Security.

 

    Ex A-28

     

    

 

Until
the later of (i) the date on which such shares of Preferred Stock may be transferred pursuant to a registration statement
that has become or been declared effective under the Securities Act and that continues to be effective at the time of such transfer,
or sold pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 or any similar provision then in force under the
Securities Act, or unless otherwise agreed by the Company in writing with written notice thereof to the Transfer Agent), and (ii) such
later date, if any, as may be required by applicable law (the “Resale Restriction Termination Date”), any certificate
evidencing such Preferred Stock (and all securities issued in exchange therefor or substitution thereof, other than Common Stock,
if any, issued upon conversion thereof, which shall bear the legend set forth in Section 13(b), if applicable) shall bear
a legend in substantially the following form:

of the certificates representing such shares of Common Stock for exchange in accordance with the procedures of the Transfer Agent,
be exchanged for a new certificate or certificates for a like aggregate number of shares of Common Stock, which shall not bear

(14) Paying
Agent and Conversion Agent.

 

(a) The
Company shall maintain in the United States (i) an office or agency where Preferred Stock may be presented for payment (the
“Paying Agent”) and (ii) an office or agency where, in accordance with the terms hereof, Preferred Stock
may be presented for conversion (the “Conversion Agent”). The Transfer Agent may act as Paying Agent and Conversion
Agent, unless another Paying Agent or Conversion Agent is appointed by the Company. The Company may appoint the Registrar, the
Paying Agent and the Conversion Agent and may appoint one or more additional paying agents and one or more additional conversion
agents in such other locations as it shall determine. The term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent
and the term “Conversion Agent” includes any additional conversion agent. The Company may change any Paying Agent
or Conversion Agent without prior notice to any Holder. The Company shall notify the Registrar of the name and address of any
Paying Agent or Conversion Agent appointed by the Company. If the Company fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Paying
Agent or Conversion Agent, the Registrar shall act as such or the Company or any of its Affiliates shall act as Paying Agent,
Registrar or Conversion Agent.

 

(b) Payments
due on the Preferred Stock shall be payable at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose in The City of
New York and at any other office or agency maintained by the Company for such purpose. Payments of cash shall be payable by United
States dollar check drawn on, or wire transfer (provided, that appropriate wire instructions have been received by the
Registrar at least 15 days prior to the applicable date of payment) to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the Holder with, a
bank located in New York City; provided that at the option of the Company, payment of cash dividends may be made by check
mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Preferred Stock register.

 

(15) Form.

 

(a) The
Preferred Stock shall be issued in the form of one or more permanent global shares of Preferred Stock in definitive, fully registered
form eligible for book-entry settlement with the global legend (the “Global Shares Legend”) as set forth on
the form of Preferred Stock certificate attached hereto as Exhibit C (each, a “Global Preferred Share”),
which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made part of this Certificate of Designations. The Global Preferred Shares may have
notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rules, agreements to which the Company is subject, if any,
or usage (provided, that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Company). The Global Preferred
Shares shall be deposited on behalf of the Holders represented thereby with the Registrar, at its New York office as custodian
for DTC (the “Depositary”), and registered in the name of the Depositary or a nominee of the Depositary, duly
executed by the Company and countersigned and registered by the Registrar as hereinafter provided. The aggregate number of shares
represented by each Global Preferred Share may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records
of the Registrar and the Depositary or its nominee as hereinafter provided.

 

    Ex A-32

     

    

 

This
Section 15(a) shall apply only to a Global Preferred Share deposited with or on behalf of the Depositary. The Company shall execute
and the Registrar shall, in accordance with this Section 15(a), countersign and deliver any Global Preferred Shares that (i) shall
be registered in the name of Cede & Co. or other nominee of the Depositary and (ii) shall be delivered by the Registrar
to Cede & Co. or pursuant to instructions received from Cede & Co. or held by the Registrar as custodian for
the Depositary pursuant to an agreement between the Depositary and the Registrar. Members of, or participants in, the Depositary
(“Agent Members”) shall have no rights under this Certificate of Designations with respect to any Global Preferred
Share held on their behalf by the Depositary or by the Registrar as the custodian of the Depositary, or under such Global Preferred
Share, and the Depositary may be treated by the Company, the Registrar and any agent of the Company or the Registrar as the absolute
owner of such Global Preferred Share for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent
the Company, the Registrar or any agent of the Company or the Registrar from giving effect to any written certification, proxy
or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or impair, as between the Depositary and its Agent Members, the operation of
customary practices of the Depositary governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of a beneficial interest in any Global
Preferred Share. The Holder of the Global Preferred Shares may grant proxies or otherwise authorize any Person to take any action
that a Holder is entitled to take pursuant to the Global Preferred Shares, this Certificate of Designations or the Charter.

 

Owners
of beneficial interests in Global Preferred Shares shall not be entitled to receive physical delivery of certificated shares of
Preferred Stock, unless (x) the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary
for the Global Preferred Shares and the Company does not appoint a qualified replacement for the Depositary within 90 days
or (y) the Depositary ceases to be a “clearing agency” registered under the Exchange Act and the Company does
not appoint a qualified replacement for the Depositary within 90 days. In any such case, the Global Preferred Shares shall
be exchanged in whole for definitive stock certificates that are not issued in global form, with the same terms and of an equal
aggregate Liquidation Preference, and such definitive stock certificates shall be registered in the name or names of the Person
or Persons specified by the Depositary in a written instrument to the Registrar.

 

(b) Signature.
Two Officers permitted by applicable law shall sign each Global Preferred Share for the Company, in accordance with the Company’s
Bylaws and applicable law, by manual or facsimile signature. If an Officer whose signature is on a Global Preferred Share no longer

(16) Other
Provisions.

 

(a) With
respect to any notice to a Holder of shares of Preferred Stock required to be provided hereunder, neither failure to mail such
notice, nor any defect therein or in the mailing thereof, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of the notice
or the validity of the proceedings referred to in such notice with respect to the other Holders or affect the legality or validity
of any distribution, rights, warrant, reclassification, consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, dissolution, liquidation
or winding-up, or the vote upon any such action. Any notice which was mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively
presumed to have been duly given whether or not the Holder receives the notice.

 

(b) Shares
of Preferred Stock that have been issued and reacquired in any manner, including shares of Preferred Stock that are purchased
or exchanged or converted, shall (upon compliance with any applicable provisions of the laws of Delaware) have the status of authorized
but unissued shares of preferred stock of the Company undesignated as to series and may be designated or redesignated and issued
or reissued, as the case may be, as part of any series of preferred stock of the Company; provided that any issuance of
such shares as Preferred Stock must be in compliance with the terms hereof.

 

(c) The
shares of Preferred Stock shall be issuable only in whole shares.

 

(d) If
any applicable law requires the deduction or withholding of any tax from any payment or deemed dividend to a Holder on its Preferred
Stock, the Company or an applicable withholding agent may withhold such tax on cash dividends, shares of Preferred Stock, Common
Stock or sale proceeds paid, subsequently paid or credited with respect to such Holder or his successors and assigns.

 

(e) All
notice periods referred to herein shall commence on the date of the mailing of the applicable notice that initiates such notice
period. Notice to any Holder shall be given to the registered address set forth in the Company’s records for such Holder.

 

(f) To
the extent lawful to do so, the Company shall provide the Holders prior written notice of any cash dividend or distribution to
be made to the holders of Common Stock, with such notice to be made no later than the notice thereof provided to all holders of
Common Stock of the Company.

 

(g) Any
payment required to be made hereunder on any day that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day
and no interest or dividends on such payment will accrue or accumulate, as the case may be, in respect of such delay.

 

(h) Holders
of Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to any preemptive rights to acquire additional capital stock of the Company.

WHEREAS,
as a condition to the willingness of the Company to enter into the Merger Agreement, and as an inducement and in consideration

contemplated hereby or compliance by such Stockholder with any of the provisions hereof shall (i) conflict with or result
in any breach of the organizational documents of such Stockholder, as applicable, (ii) result in, or give rise to, a violation
or breach of or a default under any of the terms of any material contract, understanding, agreement or other instrument or obligation
to which such Stockholder is a party or by which such Stockholder or any of such Stockholder’s Subject Shares or assets
may be bound, or (iii) violate any applicable order, writ, injunction, decree, law, statute, rule or regulation of any Governmental

to this Agreement, (b) has not granted, nor will grant at any time while this Agreement remains in effect, a proxy, a consent
or power of attorney with respect to such Stockholder’s Subject Shares and (c) has not entered into any agreement or knowingly

of such Stockholder contained herein untrue or incorrect in any material respect or have the effect of preventing such Stockholder
from performing any of its material obligations under this Agreement.

 

Section

Section 7.8 Entire
Agreement; Assignment. This Agreement (together with the Merger Agreement, to the extent referred to herein, and the schedules

Section 7.10 Parties

Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other person any rights, benefits or remedies of any nature
whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

 

Section 7.11 Interpretation.
When reference is made in this Agreement to a Section, such reference shall be to a Section of this Agreement unless otherwise
indicated. Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement,
they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” The words “hereof,” “herein,”
“hereby” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement
as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. The word “or” shall not be exclusive. Whenever used
in this Agreement, any noun or pronoun shall be deemed to include the plural as well as the singular and to cover all genders.
This Agreement shall be construed without regard to any presumption or rule requiring construction or interpretation against the
Party drafting or causing any instrument to be drafted.

 

Section 7.12 Governing
Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware.

 

Section 7.13 Specific
Performance; Jurisdiction. The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of
this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed
that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically
the terms and provisions of this Agreement in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if the Court of Chancery of
the State of Delaware lacks jurisdiction, then in the applicable Delaware state court) or, if under applicable law exclusive jurisdiction
over such matter is vested in the federal courts, any court of the United States located in the State of Delaware (or any court
in which appeal from such courts may be taken), this being in addition to any other remedy to which such Party is entitled at
law or in equity. In addition, each of the Parties hereto (a) consents to submit itself to the personal jurisdiction of the
Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or any court of the United States located in the State of Delaware (or any court in
which appeal from such courts may be taken) in the event any dispute arises out of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement, (b) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request
for leave from any such court, (c) agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement in any court other than the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, if under applicable
law exclusive jurisdiction over such matter is vested in the federal courts, any court of the United States located in the State
of Delaware (or any court in which appeal from such courts may be taken) and (d) consents to service being made through the
notice procedures set forth in Section 7.5. Each of the Stockholders and the Company hereby agrees that service of any process,
summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to the respective addresses set forth in Section 7.5 shall be effective
service of process for any proceeding in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

 

Section 7.14 Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (including by facsimile or pdf or other electronic document transmission), each
of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

 

Section 7.15 No
Partnership, Agency or Joint Venture. This Agreement is intended to create a contractual relationship between the Stockholders,
on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, and is not intended to create, and does not create, any agency, partnership,
joint venture or any like relationship between or among the parties hereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence,
each of the Stockholders (a) is entering into this Agreement solely on its own behalf and shall not have any obligation to
perform on behalf of any other holder of Common Stock or any liability (regardless of the legal theory advanced) for any breach
of this Agreement by any other holder of Common Stock and (b) by entering into this Agreement does not intend to form a “group”
for purposes of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) of the Exchange Act or any other similar provision of applicable law. Each of the Stockholders
has acted independently regarding its decision to enter into this Agreement and regarding its investment in Parent.
