SERIES A COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT

 

OF

 

QUEST PATENT RESEARCH CORPORATION

 

Initial Issuance Date: March 1, 2008

 

This is to certify that,
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Jon Scahill or registered assigns (“Holder”), is entitled to purchase, on the terms and subject
to the provisions of this Warrant, from Quest Patent Research Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”),
sixty million (60,000,000) shares of the common stock, par value $0.00003 per share (“Common Stock”), of the Company
at an exercise price per share (the “Exercise Price”) of four tenths of one cent ($0.004), during the period (the “Exercise
Period”) commencing on the Initial Issuance Date and ending at 5:30 P.M. New York City time, on the tenth anniversary of
the Initial Issuance Date; provided, however, that if such date is a day on which banking institutions in the State of New York
are authorized by law to close, then on the next succeeding day on which such banks are not authorized to be closed.

 

(a)EXERCISE OF WARRANT.

 

(1)This Warrant may be
exercised in whole at any time or in part from time to time during the Exercise Period by presentation and surrender of this Warrant
to the Company at its principal office, or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, with the Purchase Form annexed hereto
duly executed and accompanied by payment of the Exercise Price for the number of shares of Common Stock specified in such form.
Payment of the Exercise Price shall be made by wire transfer or check (subject to collection) in the amount of the Exercise Price
payable to the order of the Company. If this Warrant should be exercised in part only, the Company shall, upon surrender of this
Warrant for cancellation, execute and deliver a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the balance of the
shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder or indicate on the Warrant the extent to which the Warrant has been exercised and
the remaining number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant following such exercise. Upon receipt by the Company of this
Warrant at its office, or by the stock transfer agent of the Company at its office, in proper form for exercise, the Holder shall
be deemed to be the holder of record of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise, notwithstanding that the stock
transfer books of the Company shall then be closed or that certificates representing such shares of Common Stock shall not then
be actually delivered to the Holder; provided, however, that if payment of the Exercise Price is made by check, the Company shall
not issue the Common Stock until the Company has been advised by its bank that the check has cleared. The shares of Common Stock
issued or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are referred to as the “Warrant Shares.”

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

(2)In lieu of exercising
this Warrant by payment of the Exercise Price pursuant to Section (a)(1) of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to convert
this Warrant, in whole or in part to the extent that this Warrant has not been exercised pursuant to said Section (a)(1), for the
number of shares of Common Stock determined by (i) multiplying (x) the number of shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised
by (y) the difference between the current value per share of Common Stock and the Exercise Price per share, as in effect on such
date, and (ii) dividing the result so obtained by the current value per share of Common Stock. The date of exercise shall mean,
for purposes of this Section (a)(2), the date on which this Warrant accompanied by the notice of cashless exercise is received
by the Company or its counsel or transfer agent; provided, however, that if this Warrant is exercised or converted and delivery
of this Warrant is made by an overnight courier or overnight mail service which provides evidence of delivery, the date of exercise
shall mean the date that this Warrant accompanied by the notice of exercise, is delivered to the overnight courier or mail service.
The current value per share of Common Stock shall be determined as follows:

 

(A)If the Common Stock
is listed on a national securities exchange or admitted to unlisted trading privileges on such exchange or listed for trading on
the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”), the Toronto Stock Exchange or any exchanges related to the Toronto Stock Exchange
or other automated quotation system or is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, the OTCQX, OTCQB, or OTC Pink or other service which
provides information as to the last sale price, the current value shall be the reported last sale prices of one share of Common
Stock on such exchange, market or system on the trading day prior to the date of exercise of this Warrant, or if, on any of such
dates, no such sale is made on such day, the last reported sale on such exchange, market or system shall be used; or

 

(B)If the Common Stock
is not so listed or admitted to unlisted trading privileges or traded, the current value shall be the mean average of the reported
last bid and asked prices of one share of Common Stock as reported by Nasdaq, the Toronto Stock Exchange, the National Quotation
Bureau, Inc., Pink Sheets, Inc. or other similar reporting service selected by the Company’s board of directors, on the last
trading day prior to the date of the exercise of this Warrant; or

 

(C)If the Common Stock
is not so listed or admitted to unlisted trading privileges and bid and asked prices are not so reported, the current value of
one share of Common Stock shall be an amount, not less than book value, determined in such reasonable manner as may be prescribed
by the board of directors of the Company.

 

(b)RESERVATION OF SHARES.
The Company hereby agrees that at all times from and after the issuance of this Warrant, there shall be reserved for issuance upon
exercise of this Warrant such number of shares of Common Stock as shall be required for issuance and delivery upon exercise of
this Warrant and that it shall not, without the prior approval of the holders of a majority of the Warrants then outstanding, increase
the par value of the Common Stock in a manner such that the exercise price is less than the par value.

 

    	-2-

    	 

    

 

(c)FRACTIONAL SHARES.
No fractional shares or script representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. Any fractional
shares shall be rounded up to the next higher whole number of shares.

 

(d)EXCHANGE, TRANSFER,
ASSIGNMENT OR LOSS OF WARRANT. This Warrant is exchangeable, without expense, at the option of the Holder, upon presentation and
surrender hereof to the Company or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, for other Warrants of different denominations
entitling the holder thereof to purchase in the aggregate the same number of shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder. Subject
to the provisions of Section (j) of this Warrant, upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company or at the office of its stock transfer
agent, if any, with the Assignment Form annexed hereto duly executed and funds sufficient to pay any transfer tax, the Company
shall, without charge, execute and deliver a new Warrant in the name of the assignee named in such instrument of assignment and
this Warrant shall promptly be canceled. This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants which carry the same rights
upon presentation hereof at the office of the Company or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, together with a written
notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued and signed by the Holder hereof. The term
“Warrant” as used herein includes any Warrants into which this Warrant may be divided or exchanged. Upon receipt by
the Company of evidence satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and (in the case of loss,
theft or destruction) of reasonably satisfactory indemnification, and upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, if mutilated,
the Company will execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor. Any such new Warrant executed and delivered shall constitute
an additional contractual obligation on the part of the Company, whether or not this Warrant so lost, stolen, destroyed, or mutilated
shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.

 

(e)RIGHTS OF THE HOLDER.
The Holder shall not, by virtue of this Warrant, be entitled to any voting or other rights of a stockholder in the Company, either
at law or equity, and the rights of the Holder are limited to those expressed in the Warrant and are not enforceable against the
Company except to the extent set forth in this Warrant.

 

(f)ANTI-DILUTION PROVISIONS.
The Exercise Price in effect at any time and the number and kind of securities purchasable upon exercise of each Warrant shall
be subject to adjustment in case the Company shall, subsequent to the Initial Issuance Date, (i) pay a dividend or make a distribution
on its shares of Common Stock in shares of Common Stock (ii) subdivide or reclassify its outstanding Common Stock into a greater
number of shares, or (iii) combine or reclassify its outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or otherwise effect
a reverse split, the Exercise Price in effect at the time of the record date for such dividend or distribution or the effective
date of such subdivision and the number of shares of Common Stock (or other securities) issuable upon exercise of this Warrant
shall be proportionately adjusted to reflect such transaction. As a result of such adjustment, the Holder of this Warrant exercised
after such date shall be entitled to receive for the aggregate Exercise Price, the aggregate number and kind of shares which, if
this Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to such time, he would have owned upon such exercise and been entitled to receive
upon such dividend, subdivision, combination or reclassification. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event
listed in this Section (f) shall occur. In no event shall the Exercise Price per share be less than the par value per share.

 

    	-3-

    	 

    

 

(g)OFFICER’S
CERTIFICATE. Whenever the Exercise Price shall be adjusted as required by the provisions of Section (f) of this Warrant, the Company
shall forthwith file in the custody of its Secretary or an Assistant Secretary at its principal office and with its stock transfer
agent, if any, an officer’s certificate showing the adjusted Exercise Price and the adjusted number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of each Warrant, determined as herein provided, setting forth in reasonable detail the facts requiring such
adjustment. Each such officer’s certificate shall be made available at all reasonable times for inspection by the Holder,
and the Company shall, forthwith after each such adjustment, mail, by first class mail, a copy of such certificate to the Holder
at the Holder’s address set forth in the Company’s Warrant Register.

 

(h)NOTICES TO WARRANT
HOLDERS. So long as this Warrant shall be outstanding, (1) if the Company shall pay any dividend or make any distribution upon
Common Stock (other than a cash dividend payable out of retained earnings) or (2) if the Company shall offer to the holders of
Common Stock for subscription or purchase by them any share of any class or any other rights or (3) if any capital reorganization
of the Company, reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another
corporation, sale, lease or transfer of all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Company to another corporation,
or voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company shall be effected, then in any such case, the
Company shall cause to be mailed by certified mail, return receipt requested, to the Holder, at least ten days prior to the date
specified in clauses (i) and (ii), as the case may be, of this Section (h) a notice containing a brief description of the proposed
action and stating the date on which (i) a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or rights, or (ii)
such reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, merger, conveyance, lease, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is to take
place and the date, if any is to be fixed, as of which the holders of Common Stock or other securities shall receive cash or other
property deliverable upon such reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, merger, conveyance, dissolution, liquidation or
winding up.

 

(i)RECLASSIFICATION,
REORGANIZATION OR MERGER.

 

(1)In case of any reclassification,
capital reorganization or other change of outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company, or in case of any consolidation or
merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation
and which does not result in any reclassification, capital reorganization or other change of outstanding shares of Common Stock
of the class issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) or in case of any sale, lease or conveyance to another corporation of the
property of the Company as an entirety, the Company shall, as a condition precedent to such transaction, cause effective provisions
to be made so that the Holder shall have the right thereafter by exercising this Warrant, to purchase the kind and amount of shares
of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such reclassification, capital reorganization and other change, consolidation,
merger, sale or conveyance by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock which might have been purchased upon exercise of
this Warrant immediately prior to such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance. Any such provision
shall include provision for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for
in this Warrant. The foregoing provisions of this Section (i)(1) shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, capital
reorganizations and changes of shares of Common Stock and to successive consolidations, mergers, sales or conveyances.

 

    	-4-

    	 

    

 

(2)Notwithstanding the
provisions of Section (i)(1) of this Warrant, in the event of a Specified Merger, as hereinafter defined, this Warrant, if not
exercised prior to the effective time of the Specified Merger, shall, at the effective time of the Specified Merger, without any
action on the part of the holder, become and be converted into the right to receive cash or securities equal to the amount determined
by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant by the amount by which (i) the consideration
payable with respect to one share of Common Stock in the Specified Merger exceeds (ii) the Exercise Price. A Specified Merger shall
mean the merger or consolidation of the Company into another corporation or entity or the sale by the Company of all or substantially
all of its business and assets in a transaction in which the net proceeds or other consideration from such sale are distributed
to the Company’s stockholders in liquidation of their shares of Common Stock, if, and only if, the sole consideration to
be received by the holders of the Common Stock is cash, including any contingent cash, and/or securities all of which are listed
on the New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq Stock Market. Securities issued in the Specified Merger shall be valued at the average
closing price thereof on the principal stock exchange or market on which the securities are listed or traded for the five-day period
ending the day prior to the effective date of the Specified Merger. Payment to the holder of this Warrant with respect to any such
securities shall be payable in either cash and/or in such securities (valued as herein provided), as the Company shall determine.
If, in a Specified Merger, the value of the consideration payable with respect to one share of Common Stock is less than the Exercise
Price, no payment shall be made to the holder of this Warrant, and this Warrant shall terminate.

 

(j)TRANSFER TO COMPLY
WITH THE SECURITIES ACT. This Warrant or the Warrant Shares or any other security issued or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant
may not be sold or otherwise disposed of except as follows:

 

(1)To a person who, in
the opinion of counsel for the Company, is a person to whom this Warrant or Warrant Shares may legally be transferred without registration
and without the delivery of a current prospectus under the Securities Act and in compliance with applicable state securities laws
with respect thereto and then only against receipt of an agreement of such person to comply with the provisions of this Section
(j) with respect to any resale or other disposition of such securities which agreement shall be satisfactory in form and substance
to the Company and its counsel; or

 

(2)To any person upon
delivery of a prospectus then meeting the requirements of the Securities Act and state securities laws relating to such securities
and the offering thereof for such sale or disposition.

 

(k)GOVERNING LAW. This
Warrant shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts wholly performed
within the borders of such state and without giving effect to conflicts of law provisions thereof. The Company and, by acceptance
of this Option, the Holder, agrees that any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the
transactions contemplated hereby shall be instituted exclusively in New York Supreme Court, County of New York, or in the United
States District Court for the Southern District of New York and hereby: (i) waive any objection which they may now have or hereafter
have to the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding, and (ii) irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of the New York Supreme
Court, County of New York, and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York in any such suit, action
or proceeding.

 

(l)NO RIGHT OF REDEMPTION.
The Company shall have no right to call this Warrant for redemption.

INDEMNIFICATION
AGREEMENT

 

THIS
INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of November 21, 2014, between Quest
Patent Research Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Jon C. Scahill (“Indemnitee”).

 

WITNESSETH:

 

WHEREAS,
highly competent persons have become more reluctant to serve corporations as directors, officers or in other capacities unless
they are provided with adequate protection through insurance or adequate indemnification against inordinate risks of claims and
actions against them arising out of their service to and activities on behalf of the corporation;

 

WHEREAS,
the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) has determined that, in order to attract and retain qualified
individuals, the Company will attempt to maintain on an ongoing basis, at its sole expense, liability insurance to protect persons
serving the Company and its subsidiaries from certain liabilities to the extent that such insurance can be obtained at reasonable
cost to the Company;

 

WHEREAS,
although the furnishing of such insurance has been a customary and widespread practice among United States-based corporations
and other business enterprises, the Company believes that, given current market conditions and trends, such insurance may be available
to the Company only at high premiums and with exclusions, while directors, officers, and other persons in service to corporations
or business enterprises are being increasingly subjected to expensive and time-consuming litigation relating to, among other things,
matters that traditionally would have been brought only against the Company or business enterprise itself;

 

WHEREAS,
The Bylaws of the Company and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (“DGCL”) provide for indemnification
of the officers and directors of the Company and that the indemnification provisions set forth therein are not exclusive, and
thereby contemplate that contracts may be entered into between the Company and members of the Board, officers and other persons
with respect to indemnification;

 

WHEREAS,
the uncertainties relating to such insurance and to indemnification have increased the difficulty of attracting and retaining
such persons;

 

WHEREAS,
the Board has determined that the increased difficulty in attracting and retaining such persons is detrimental to the best interests
of the Company’s stockholders and that the Company should act to assure such persons that there will be increased certainty
of such protection in the future;

 

WHEREAS,
it is reasonable, prudent and necessary for the Company contractually to obligate itself to indemnify, and to advance expenses
on behalf of, such persons to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law so that they will serve or continue to serve the
Company free from undue concern that they will not be so indemnified;

 

WHEREAS,
this Agreement is a supplement to and in furtherance of the Bylaws of the Company and any resolutions adopted pursuant thereto,
and shall not be deemed a substitute therefor, nor to diminish or abrogate any rights of Indemnitee thereunder; and

 

WHEREAS,
Indemnitee may not be willing to serve as an officer or director without adequate protection, and the Company desires Indemnitee
to serve in such capacity, and Indemnitee is willing to serve, continue to serve and to take on additional service for or on behalf
of the Company on the condition that he be so indemnified; and

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of Indemnitee’s agreement to continue to serve as a director and officer from and after
the date hereof, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

1.Indemnity
of Indemnitee. The Company hereby agrees to hold harmless and indemnify Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by law,
as such may be amended from time to time. In furtherance of the foregoing indemnification, and without limiting the generality
thereof.

 

(a)Proceedings
Other Than Proceedings by or in the Right of the Company. Indemnitee shall be entitled to the rights of indemnification provided
in this Section l(a) if, by reason of his Corporate Status (as hereinafter defined), the Indemnitee is, or is threatened
to be made, a party to or participant in any Proceeding (as hereinafter defined) other than a Proceeding by or in the right of
the Company. Pursuant to this Section 1(a), Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Expenses (as hereinafter defined), judgments,
penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him, or on his behalf, in connection with
such Proceeding or any claim, issue or matter therein, if the Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner the Indemnitee reasonably
believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and with respect to any criminal Proceeding, had no reasonable
cause to believe the Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful.

 

(b)Proceedings
by or in the Right of the Company. Indemnitee shall be entitled to the rights of indemnification provided in this Section
1(b) if, by reason of his Corporate Status, the Indemnitee is, or is threatened to be made, a party to or participant in any Proceeding
brought by or in the right of the Company. Pursuant to this Section 1(b), Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Expenses
actually and reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee, or on the Indemnitee’s behalf, in connection with such Proceeding if
the Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner the Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests
of the Company; provided, however, if applicable law so provides, no indemnification against such Expenses shall be made in respect
of any claim, issue or matter in such Proceeding as to which Indemnitee shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Company unless
and to the extent that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware shall determine that such indemnification may be made.

 

(c)Indemnification
for Expenses of a Party Who is Wholly or Partly Successful. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the
extent that Indemnitee is, by reason of his Corporate Status, a party to and is successful, on the merits or otherwise, in any
Proceeding, he shall be indemnified to the maximum extent permitted by law, as such may be amended from time to time, against
all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection therewith. If Indemnitee is not wholly successful
in such Proceeding but is successful, on the merits or otherwise, as to one or more but less than all claims, issues or matters
in such Proceeding, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on
his behalf in connection with each successfully resolved claim, issue or matter. For purposes of this Section and without limitation,
the termination of any claim, issue or matter in such a Proceeding by dismissal, with or without prejudice, shall be deemed to
be a successful result as to such claim, issue or matter.

 

2.Additional
Indemnity. In addition to, and without regard to any limitations on, the indemnification provided for in Section 1 of this
Agreement, but subject to the laws of Delaware, the Company shall and hereby does indemnify and hold harmless Indemnitee against
all Expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf
if, by reason of his Corporate Status, he is, or is threatened to be made, a party to or participant in any Proceeding (including
a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company), including, without limitation, all liability arising out of the negligence or
active or passive wrongdoing of Indemnitee. The only limitation that shall exist upon the Company’s obligations pursuant
to this Agreement shall be that the Company shall not be obligated to make any payment to Indemnitee that is finally determined
(under the procedures, and subject to the presumptions, set forth in Sections 6 and 7 hereof) to be unlawful.

 

    	2

    	 

    

 

3.Contribution.

 

(a)Whether
or not the indemnification provided in Sections 1 and 2 hereof is available, in respect of any threatened, pending or completed
action, suit or proceeding in which the Company is jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit
or proceeding), the Company shall pay, in the first instance, the entire amount of any judgment or settlement of such action,
suit or proceeding without requiring Indemnitee to contribute to such payment and the Company hereby waives and relinquishes any
right of contribution it may have against Indemnitee. The Company shall not enter into any settlement of any action, suit or proceeding
in which the Company is jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding) unless such
settlement provides for a full and final release of all claims asserted against Indemnitee.

 

(b)Without
diminishing or impairing the obligations of the Company set forth in Section 3(a), if, for any reason, Indemnitee shall elect
or be required to pay all or any portion of any judgment or settlement in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or
proceeding in which the Company is jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding),
the Company shall contribute to the amount of Expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred and paid or payable by Indemnitee in proportion to the relative benefits received by the Company and all officers, directors
or employees of the Company, other than Indemnitee, who are jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action,
suit or proceeding), on the one hand, and Indemnitee, on the other hand, from the transaction or events from which such action,
suit or proceeding arose; provided, however, that the proportion determined on the basis of relative benefit may,
to the extent necessary to conform to law, be further adjusted by reference to the relative fault of the Company and all officers,
directors or employees of the Company other than Indemnitee who are jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such
action, suit or proceeding), on the one hand, and Indemnitee, on the other hand, in connection with the transaction or events
that resulted in such expenses, judgments, fines or settlement amounts, as well as any other equitable considerations which applicable
law may require to be considered. The relative fault of the Company and all officers, directors or employees of the Company, other
than Indemnitee, who are jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding), on the one
hand, and Indemnitee, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, the degree to which their actions
were motivated by intent to gain personal profit or advantage, the degree to which their liability is primary or secondary and
the degree to which their conduct is active or passive.

 

(c)The
Company hereby agrees to fully indemnify and hold Indemnitee harmless from any claims of contribution which may be brought by
officers, directors, or employees of the Company, other than Indemnitee, who may be jointly liable with Indemnitee.

 

(d)To
the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, if the indemnification provided for in this Agreement is unavailable to Indemnitee
for any reason whatsoever, the Company, in lieu of indemnifying Indemnitee, shall contribute to the amount incurred by Indemnitee,
whether for judgments, fines, penalties, excise taxes, amounts paid or to be paid in settlement and/or for Expenses, in connection
with any claim relating to an indemnifiable event under this Agreement, in such proportion as is deemed fair and reasonable in
light of all of the circumstances of such Proceeding in order to reflect (i) the relative benefits received by the Company and
Indemnitee as a result of the event(s) and/or transaction(s) giving cause to such Proceeding and/or (ii) the relative fault of
the Company (and its directors, officers, employees and agents) and Indemnitee in connection with such event(s) and/or transaction(s).

4.Indemnification
for Expenses of a Witness. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent that Indemnitee is, by reason
of his Corporate Status, a witness, or is made (or asked) to respond to discovery requests, in any Proceeding to which Indemnitee
is not a party, he shall be indemnified against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection
therewith.

 

5.Advancement
of Expenses. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company shall advance all Expenses incurred by or
on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding by reason of Indemnitee’s Corporate Status within thirty (30)
days after the receipt by the Company of a statement or statements from Indemnitee requesting such advance or advances from time
to time, whether prior to or after final disposition of such Proceeding. Such statement or statements shall reasonably evidence
the Expenses incurred by Indemnitee and shall include or be preceded or accompanied by a written undertaking by or on behalf of
Indemnitee to repay any Expenses advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified
against such Expenses. Any advances and undertakings to repay pursuant to this Section 5 shall be unsecured and interest
free.

 

6.Procedures
and Presumptions for Determination of Entitlement to Indemnification. It is the intent of this Agreement to secure for Indemnitee
rights of indemnity that are as favorable as may be permitted under the DGCL and public policy of the State of Delaware and federal
law and public policy, subject only to limitations expressly provided in this Agreement. Accordingly, the parties agree that the
following procedures and presumptions shall apply in the event of any question as to whether Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification
under this Agreement:

 

(a)To
obtain indemnification under this Agreement, Indemnitee shall submit to the Company a written request, including therein or therewith
such documentation and information as is reasonably available to Indemnitee and is reasonably necessary to determine whether and
to what extent Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification. The Secretary of the Company shall, promptly upon receipt of such a
request for indemnification, advise the Board in writing that Indemnitee has requested indemnification. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
any failure of Indemnitee to provide such a request to the Company, or to provide such a request in a timely fashion, shall not
relieve the Company of any liability that it may have to Indemnitee unless, and to the extent that, such failure actually and
materially prejudices the interests of the Company.

 

(b)Upon
written request by Indemnitee for indemnification pursuant to the first sentence of Section 6(a) hereof, a determination with
respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement thereto shall be made in the specific case by one of the following four methods, which
shall be at the election of the Board (1) by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, even though less than a quorum, (2)
by a committee of Disinterested Directors designated by a majority vote of the disinterested directors, even though less than
a quorum, (3) if there are no Disinterested Directors or if the Disinterested Directors so direct, by Independent Counsel in a
written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to the Indemnitee, or (4) if so directed by the Board, by the
stockholders of the Company. For purposes hereof, disinterested directors are those members of the Board who are not parties to
the action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification is sought by Indemnitee. In the event of a Change of Control,
the determination of indemnification shall be made by Independent Counsel. 

 

    	4

    	 

    

 

(c)If
the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 6(b) hereof, the
Independent Counsel shall be selected as provided in this Section 6(c). The Independent Counsel shall be selected by the Board.
Indemnitee may, within ten (10) days after such written notice of selection shall have been given, deliver to the Company a written
objection to such selection; provided, however, that such objection may be asserted only on the ground that the Independent Counsel
so selected does not meet the requirements of “Independent Counsel” as defined in Section 13 of this Agreement,
and the objection shall set forth with particularity the factual basis of such assertion. Absent a proper and timely objection,
the person so selected shall act as Independent Counsel. If a written objection is made and substantiated, the Independent Counsel
selected may not serve as Independent Counsel unless and until such objection is withdrawn or a court has determined that such
objection is without merit. If, within twenty (20) days after submission by Indemnitee of a written request for indemnification
pursuant to Section 6(a) hereof, no Independent Counsel shall have been selected and not objected to, either the Company or Indemnitee
may petition the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or other court of competent jurisdiction for resolution of any objection
which shall have been made by the Indemnitee to the Company’s selection of Independent Counsel and/or for the appointment
as Independent Counsel of a person selected by the court or by such other person as the court shall designate, and the person
with respect to whom all objections are so resolved or the person so appointed shall act as Independent Counsel under Section
6(b) hereof. The Company shall pay any and all reasonable fees and expenses of Independent Counsel incurred by such Independent
Counsel in connection with acting pursuant to Section 6(b) hereof, and the Company shall pay all reasonable fees and expenses
incident to the procedures of this Section 6(c), regardless of the manner in which such Independent Counsel was selected or appointed.

 

(d)In
making a determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification hereunder, the person or persons or entity making such determination
shall presume that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement. Anyone seeking to overcome this presumption
shall have the burden of proof and the burden of persuasion by clear and convincing evidence. Neither the failure of the Company
(including by its directors or Independent Counsel) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of any action pursuant
to this Agreement that indemnification is proper in the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct,
nor an actual determination by the Company (including by its directors or independent legal counsel) that Indemnitee has not met
such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met the
applicable standard of conduct.

 

(e)Indemnitee
shall be deemed to have acted in good faith if Indemnitee’s action is based on the records or books of account of the Enterprise
(as hereinafter defined), including financial statements, or on information supplied to Indemnitee by the officers of the Enterprise
in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for the Enterprise or on information or records given or reports
made to the Enterprise by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser or other expert selected with reasonable
care by the Enterprise. In addition, the knowledge and/or actions, or failure to act, of any director, officer, agent or employee
of the Enterprise shall not be imputed to Indemnitee for purposes of determining the right to indemnification under this Agreement.
Whether or not the foregoing provisions of this Section 6(e) are satisfied, it shall in any event be presumed that Indemnitee
has at all times acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
Company. Anyone seeking to overcome this presumption shall have the burden of proof and the burden of persuasion by clear and
convincing evidence.

 

    	5

    	 

    

 

(f)If
the person, persons or entity empowered or selected under Section 6 to determine whether Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification
shall not have made a determination within sixty (60) days after receipt by the Company of the request therefor, the requisite
determination of entitlement to indemnification shall be deemed to have been made and Indemnitee shall be entitled to such indemnification
absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s
statement not materially misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification
under applicable law; provided, however, that such sixty (60) day period may be extended for a reasonable time, not to exceed
an additional thirty (30) days, if the person, persons or entity making such determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification
in good faith requires such additional time to obtain or evaluate documentation and/or information relating thereto; and provided
further, that the foregoing provisions of this Section 6(f) shall not apply if the determination of entitlement to indemnification
is to be made by the stockholders pursuant to Section 6(b) of this Agreement and if (A) within fifteen (15) days after receipt
by the Company of the request for such determination, the Board or the Disinterested Directors, if appropriate, resolve to submit
such determination to the stockholders for their consideration at an annual meeting thereof to be held within seventy five (75)
days after such receipt and such determination is made thereat, or (B) a special meeting of stockholders is called within fifteen
(15) days after such receipt for the purpose of making such determination, such meeting is held for such purpose within sixty
(60) days after having been so called and such determination is made thereat.

 

(g)Indemnitee
shall cooperate with the person, persons or entity making such determination with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to
indemnification, including providing to such person, persons or entity upon reasonable advance request any documentation or information
which is not privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and which is reasonably available to Indemnitee and reasonably
necessary to such determination. Any Independent Counsel, member of the Board or stockholder of the Company shall act reasonably
and in good faith in making a determination regarding the Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification under this Agreement.
Any costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person,
persons or entity making such determination shall be borne by the Company (irrespective of the determination as to Indemnitee’s
entitlement to indemnification) and the Company hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold Indemnitee harmless therefrom.

 

(h)The
Company acknowledges that a settlement or other disposition short of final judgment may be successful if it permits a party to
avoid expense, delay, distraction, disruption and uncertainty. In the event that any action, claim or proceeding to which Indemnitee
is a party is resolved in any manner other than by adverse judgment against Indemnitee (including, without limitation, settlement
of such action, claim or proceeding with or without payment of money or other consideration) it shall be presumed that Indemnitee
has been successful on the merits or otherwise in such action, suit or proceeding. Anyone seeking to overcome this presumption
shall have the burden of proof and the burden of persuasion by clear and convincing evidence.

 

(i)The
termination of any Proceeding or of any claim, issue or matter therein, by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon
a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement) of itself adversely
affect the right of Indemnitee to indemnification or create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner
which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company or, with respect to any criminal Proceeding,
that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

7.Remedies
of Indemnitee.

 

(a)In
the event that (i) a determination is made pursuant to Section 6 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification
under this Agreement, (ii) advancement of Expenses is not timely made pursuant to Section 5 of this Agreement, (iii) no determination
of entitlement to indemnification is made pursuant to Section 6(b) of this Agreement within ninety (90) days after receipt by
the Company of the request for indemnification, (iv) payment of indemnification is not made pursuant to this Agreement within
ten (10) days after receipt by the Company of a written request therefor, or (v) payment of indemnification is not made within
ten (10) days after a determination has been made that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification or such determination is deemed
to have been made pursuant to Section 6 of this Agreement, Indemnitee shall be entitled to an adjudication in an appropriate court
of the State of Delaware, or in any other court of competent jurisdiction, of Indemnitee’s entitlement to such indemnification.
Indemnitee shall commence such proceeding seeking an adjudication within one hundred eighty (180) days following the date on which
Indemnitee first has the right to commence such proceeding pursuant to this Section 7(a). The Company shall not oppose Indemnitee’s
right to seek any such adjudication.

 

(b)In
the event that a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 6(b) of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled
to indemnification, any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 7 shall be conducted in all respects as a de novo
trial on the merits, and Indemnitee shall not be prejudiced by reason of the adverse determination under Section 6(b).

 

(c)If
a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 6(b) of this Agreement that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification,
the Company shall be bound by such determination in any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 7, absent (i) a
misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s statement
not materially misleading in connection with the application for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification
under applicable law.

 

(d)In
the event that Indemnitee, pursuant to this Section 7, seeks a judicial adjudication of his rights under, or to recover damages
for breach of, this Agreement, or to recover under any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained
by the Company, the Company shall pay on his behalf, in advance, any and all expenses (of the types described in the definition
of Expenses in Section 13 of this Agreement) actually and reasonably incurred by him in such judicial adjudication, regardless
of whether Indemnitee ultimately is determined to be entitled to such indemnification, advancement of expenses or insurance recovery.

 

(e)The
Company shall be precluded from asserting in any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 7 that the procedures
and presumptions of this Agreement are not valid, binding and enforceable and shall stipulate in any such court that the Company
is bound by all the provisions of this Agreement. The Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against any and all Expenses and, if
requested by Indemnitee, shall (within ten (10) days after receipt by the Company of a written request therefore) advance, to
the extent not prohibited by law, such expenses to Indemnitee, which are incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any action
brought by Indemnitee for indemnification or advance of Expenses from the Company under this Agreement or under any directors’
and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained by the Company, regardless of whether Indemnitee ultimately is determined
to be entitled to such indemnification, advancement of Expenses or insurance recovery, as the case may be.

 

(f)Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no determination as to entitlement to indemnification under this Agreement shall be
required to be made prior to the final disposition of the Proceeding.

 

    	7

    	 

    

 

8.Non-Exclusivity;
Survival of Rights; Insurance; Primacy of Indemnification; Subrogation.

 

(a)The
rights of indemnification as provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which Indemnitee
may at any time be entitled under applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation, the By-laws, any agreement, a vote of stockholders,
a resolution of directors of the Company, or otherwise. No amendment, alteration or repeal of this Agreement or of any provision
hereof shall limit or restrict any right of Indemnitee under this Agreement in respect of any action taken or omitted by such
Indemnitee in his Corporate Status prior to such amendment, alteration or repeal. To the extent that a change in the DGCL, whether
by statute or judicial decision, permits greater indemnification than would be afforded currently under the Certificate of Incorporation,
By-laws and this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties hereto that Indemnitee shall enjoy by this Agreement the greater benefits
so afforded by such change. No right or remedy herein conferred is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and
every other right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter
existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not
prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other right or remedy.

 

(b)To
the extent that the Company maintains an insurance policy or policies providing liability insurance for directors, officers, employees,
or agents or fiduciaries of the Company or of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan
or other enterprise that such person serves at the request of the Company, Indemnitee shall be covered by such policy or policies
in accordance with its or their terms to the maximum extent of the coverage available for any director, officer, employee, agent
or fiduciary under such policy or policies. If, at the time of the receipt of a notice of a claim pursuant to the terms hereof,
the Company has directors’ and officers’ liability insurance in effect, the Company shall give prompt notice of the
commencement of such proceeding to the insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the respective policies. The Company
shall thereafter take all necessary or desirable action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of the Indemnitee, all amounts
payable as a result of such proceeding in accordance with the terms of such policies.

 

(c)In
the event of any payment under this Agreement, the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights
of recovery of Indemnitee, who shall execute all papers required and take all action necessary to secure such rights, including
execution of such documents as are necessary to enable the Company to bring suit to enforce such rights.

 

(d)The
Company shall not be liable under this Agreement to make any payment of amounts otherwise indemnifiable hereunder if and to the
extent that Indemnitee has otherwise actually received such payment under any insurance policy, contract, agreement or otherwise.

 

(e)The
Company’s obligation to indemnify or advance Expenses hereunder to Indemnitee who is or was serving at the request of the
Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit
plan or other enterprise shall be reduced by any amount Indemnitee has actually received as indemnification or advancement of
expenses from such other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise.

 

9.Exception
to Right of Indemnification. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated under this
Agreement to make any indemnity in connection with any claim made against Indemnitee:

 

(a)for
which payment has actually been made to or on behalf of Indemnitee under any insurance policy or other indemnity provision, except
with respect to any excess beyond the amount paid under any insurance policy or other indemnity provision; or

 

    	8

    	 

    

 

(b)for
an accounting of profits made from the purchase and sale (or sale and purchase) by Indemnitee of securities of the Company within
the meaning of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act or similar provisions of state statutory law or common law; or

 

(c)in
connection with any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) initiated by Indemnitee, including any Proceeding (or any part
of any Proceeding) initiated by Indemnitee against the Company or its directors, officers, employees or other indemnitees, unless
(i) the Board authorized the Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) prior to its initiation, or (ii) the Company provides
the indemnification, in its sole discretion, pursuant to the powers vested in the Company under applicable law; or

 

(d)for
conduct that is determined to be in violation of federal or state insider trading laws; or

 

(e)conduct
that is determined to be knowingly fraudulent or deliberately dishonest or to constitute willful misconduct.

 

10.Duration
of Agreement. All agreements and obligations of the Company contained herein shall continue during the period Indemnitee is
an officer or director of the Company (or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or
agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise) and shall continue thereafter so long as
Indemnitee shall be subject to any Proceeding (or any proceeding commenced under Section 7 hereof) by reason of his Corporate
Status, whether or not he is acting or serving in any such capacity at the time any liability or expense is incurred for which
indemnification can be provided under this Agreement, and until the expiration of all applicable statutes of limitation.

 

11.Security.
To the extent requested by Indemnitee and approved by the Board, the Company may at any time and from time to time provide security
to Indemnitee for the Company’s obligations hereunder through an irrevocable bank line of credit, funded trust or other
collateral. Any such security, once provided to Indemnitee, may not be revoked or released without the prior written consent of
the Indemnitee.

 

12.Enforcement.

 

(a)The
Company expressly confirms and agrees that it has entered into this Agreement and assumes the obligations imposed on it hereby
in order to induce Indemnitee to serve as an officer or director of the Company, and the Company acknowledges that Indemnitee
is relying upon this Agreement in serving as an officer or director of the Company.

 

(b)This
Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes
all prior agreements and understandings, oral, written and implied, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter
hereof.

 

(c)The
Company shall not seek from a court, or agree to, a “bar order” which would have the effect of prohibiting or limiting
the Indemnitee’s rights to receive advancement of expenses under this Agreement.

or the amount of judgments or fines against Indemnitee.

 

(h)“Independent
Counsel” means a law firm, or a member of a law firm, that is experienced in matters of corporation law and neither
presently is, nor in the past five years has been, retained to represent (i) the Company or Indemnitee in any matter material
to either such party (other than with respect to matters concerning Indemnitee under this Agreement, or of other indemnitees under
similar indemnification agreements), or (ii) any other party to the Proceeding giving rise to a claim for indemnification hereunder.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term “Independent Counsel” shall not include any person who, under the applicable
standards of professional conduct then prevailing, would have or could reasonably be deemed to have a conflict of interest in

involved as a party or otherwise, by reason of his or her Corporate Status, by reason of any action taken by him or of any inaction
on his part while acting in his or her Corporate Status; in each case whether or not he is acting or serving in any such capacity
at the time any liability or expense is incurred for which indemnification can be provided under this Agreement; including one
pending on or before the date of this Agreement, but excluding one initiated by an Indemnitee pursuant to Section 7 of this Agreement
to enforce his rights under this Agreement.

 

14.Severability.
The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of any other
provision. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement is intended to confer upon Indemnitee indemnification
rights to the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws. In the event any provision hereof conflicts with any applicable law,
such provision shall be deemed modified, consistent with the aforementioned intent, to the extent necessary to resolve such conflict.

 

    	11

    	 

    

 

15.Entire
Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the parties as to the subject matter hereof, superseding all
prior or contemporaneous written or oral understandings or agreements, all of which are hereby terminated, with respect to the
indemnification by the Company of Indemnitee. This Agreement may not be modified or amended, nor may any right be waived, except
by a writing which expressly refers to this Agreement, states that it is intended to be a modification, amendment or waiver and
is signed by both parties in the case of a modification or amendment or by the party granting the waiver. No course of conduct
or dealing between the parties and no custom or trade usage shall be relied upon to vary the terms of this Agreement. The failure
of a party to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Agreement on any occasion shall not be considered a waiver or deprive
that party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Agreement. No delay
or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to either party hereto shall impair any such right, power or remedy
or shall be construed to be a waiver of or an acquiescence to any breach hereof. No waiver of any breach hereof shall be deemed
to be a waiver of any other breach hereof theretofore or thereafter occurring. Any waiver of any provision hereof shall be effective
only to the extent specifically set forth in an applicable writing. All remedies afforded to either party under this Agreement,
by law or otherwise, shall be cumulative and not alternative and shall not preclude assertion by such party of any other rights
or the seeking of any other rights or remedies against any other party.

 

16.Notice
By Indemnitee. Indemnitee agrees promptly to notify the Company in writing upon being served with or otherwise receiving any
summons, citation, subpoena, complaint, indictment, information or other document relating to any Proceeding or matter which may
be subject to indemnification covered hereunder. The failure to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of any obligation
which it may have to Indemnitee under this Agreement or otherwise unless and only to the extent that such failure or delay materially
prejudices the Company.

 

17.Notices.
All notices and other communications given or made pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively
given (a) upon personal delivery to the party to be notified, (b) when sent by electronic mail or facsimile upon confirmation
of receipt by the recipient, (c) five (5) days after having been sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested,
postage prepaid, or (d) one (1) business day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier which provides evidence
of delivery, specifying next business day delivery, with written verification of receipt. All communications shall be sent to
the Company and Indemnitee at their respective addresses, telecopier numbers or emails set forth on the signature page of this
Agreement or to such other address as may have been furnished to Indemnitee by the Company or to the Company by Indemnitee, as
the case may be.
