Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On February 9, 2021, the Company entered into
a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with several institutional accredited investors (the “Purchasers”),
pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell (i) in a registered direct offering an aggregate 32,923,078 Common Shares of the Company
at a purchase price per share of $0.65 (the “Shares”), for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of approximately
$21.4 million, before deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses payable by the Company (the “Registered Offering”),
and (ii) in a concurrent private placement (the “Private Placement”) warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase
an aggregate of 16,461,539 Common Shares (the “Warrant Shares”). The Registered Offering and the Private Placement
are anticipated to close on or about February 11, 2021.
The exercise price of each Warrant is $0.80
per share, and each Warrant is exercisable six months after the date of issuance and will expire five years from the date of issuance.
The exercise price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants are subject to adjustment upon the occurrence
of specified events, including stock dividends, stock splits, combinations and reclassifications of the Common Shares, as described
in the Warrant.
Holders of the Warrants may exercise their Warrants
to purchase Warrant Shares at any time six months after the date of issuance and prior to the expiration date. Subject to limited
exceptions, a holder of Warrants will not have the right to exercise any portion of its Warrants if the holder, together with its
affiliates and any other persons acting as a group together with the holder and any of the holder's affiliates, would beneficially
own in excess of 4.99% or 9.99% (at the election of the holder prior to issuance) of the number of our Common Shares outstanding
immediately after giving effect to such exercise, provided that the holder may increase or decrease the beneficial ownership limitation
(but in no event shall such limitation exceed 9.99%). If, at the time of the exercise of a Warrant, a registration statement and
current prospectus covering the resale by the holder of the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant is not available,
the holder may exercise its Warrant, in whole or in part, on a cashless basis. There is no established trading market for the Warrants,
and the Company does not intend to list the Warrants on any securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system.
Pursuant to a placement agency agreement dated
February 9, 2021, we have engaged A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners (“AGP” or Placement Agent) to act as our exclusive
Placement Agent in connection with the Registered Offering and the Private Placement. As compensation in connection with the Registered
Offering, the Company agreed to pay AGP a cash fee equal to 7.0% of the gross proceeds of the Registered Offering, $15,000 for
non-accountable expenses, which includes for travel, marketing, and up to $50,000 for accountable Placement Agent’s legal
fees. In addition, the Company agreed to issue AGP warrants (the “Placement Agent Warrants”) to purchase 1,152,308
Common Shares. The Placement Agent Warrants have an exercise price equal to $0.80, which is the same exercise price of the Warrants
sold in the Private Placement, and are exercisable 180 days after the close of the Registered Offering and for five years from
such date. The Placement Agent Warrants have substantially similar terms to the Warrants issued in the concurrent Private Placement.
Finally, AGP will receive a cash fee equal to 7.0% upon the cash exercise of the Warrant.
The net proceeds from the Registered Offering,
after deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses, are anticipated to be approximately $19.7 million, excluding the proceeds,
if any, from the exercise of the Warrants or the Placement Agent Warrants.
The Purchase Agreement includes customary representations,
warranties and covenants by the Company and the Purchasers, and the Company has agreed to provide the Purchasers with customary
indemnification under the Purchase Agreement.
The Common Shares were offered and sold by the
Company pursuant to an effective shelf registration statements on Form F-3 (File No. 333-250146), which was originally filed with
the SEC on November 17, 2020 and declared effective on November 25, 2020 and Form F-3(File No. 333-252876) filed on and automatically
declared effective on February 9, 2021. The Warrants were offered and sold, and the Placement Agent Warrants were issued, in reliance
upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities
Act”), and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated thereunder. To the extent any Warrant Shares are issued upon exercise
of the Warrants or any Common Shares are issued upon exercise of the Placement Agent Warrants, such Warrant Shares or Common Shares,
as applicable, will be issued in transactions anticipated to be exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities
Act and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated thereunder.
The foregoing descriptions of the Purchase Agreement,
the Warrant and the Placement Agent Warrant are not complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text
of the form of Purchase Agreement, form of Warrant and form of Placement Agent Warrant, copies of which are filed herewith as Exhibit
10.1, Exhibit 4.1, and Exhibit 4.2 respectively to this Report on Form 6-K and are incorporated by reference herein.

LLP relating to the Common Shares offered in the Registered Offering is attached as Exhibit 5.1 hereto.
