(the “Purchase Agreement”) with those certain purchasers named therein (the “Purchasers”) pursuant to which
the Company agreed to issue and sell, in a public offering, directly to the Purchasers (the “Registered Direct Offering”),
10,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”). The purchase
price per share of Common Stock is $0.20, resulting in gross proceeds of $2,000,000.
The
Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, agreements and obligations, conditions to closing and termination
provisions.
The
net proceeds to the Company are expected to be approximately $1,780,000 million, after deducting estimated expenses payable by
the Company associated with the Registered Direct Offering. The Company intends to use the proceeds from the Registered Direct
Offering to fund its operations, which includes, but is not limited to, developing and manufacturing complete fuel cell systems
and the Membrane Electrode Assembly (MEA) at the center of the fuel cell, designing fuel cell stacks and completing fuel cell systems
for a range of customers in the stationary power, portable power, automotive, aviation, energy storage and sensor markets, and
for working capital and general corporate purposes.
The
Registered Direct Offering is being made pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration

2023, including the prospectus contained therein, as well as a prospectus supplement to be filed with the SEC in connection with
the Company’s takedown relating to the Registered Direct Offering.
On
December 22, 2023, the Company entered into an engagement letter with Joseph Gunnar & Co., LLC (“Gunnar”),
pursuant to which Gunnar agreed to serve as the exclusive placement agent for the Company, on a reasonable best-efforts basis,
in connection with the Registered Direct Offering. The Company paid Gunnar an aggregate cash fee equal to 9.0% of the gross proceeds
of the Registered Direct Offering. We have also agreed to reimburse Gunnar up to a total of $25,000 for actual fees and expenses
of legal counsel and other out-of-pocket expenses.

herein by reference.
A

material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the rules and regulations of the Commission with respect thereto
as in effect at the time of filing. Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted
accounting principles applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (“GAAP”), except as may be otherwise
specified in such financial statements or the notes thereto and except that unaudited financial statements may not contain all
footnotes required by GAAP, and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the Company and its consolidated
Subsidiaries as of and for the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended, subject,
in the case of unaudited statements, to normal, immaterial, year-end audit adjustments.
(i) Material
Changes; Undisclosed Events, Liabilities or Developments. Since the date of the latest audited financial statements for the

circumstance, occurrence or development has occurred or exists or is reasonably expected to occur or exist with respect to the
Company or its Subsidiaries or their respective businesses, prospects, properties, operations, assets or financial condition that
would be required to be disclosed by the Company under applicable securities laws at the time this representation is made or deemed
made that has not been publicly disclosed at least one (1) Trading Day prior to the date that this representation is made.
(j) Litigation.
There has not been, and to the knowledge of the Company there is not pending or contemplated, any action, suit, inquiry, notice
of violation, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against or affecting the Company,
any Subsidiary or any of their respective properties before or by any court, arbitrator, governmental or administrative agency
or regulatory authority (federal, state, county, local or foreign) (collectively, an “Action”) which (i) adversely
affects or challenges the legality, validity or enforceability of any of the Transaction Documents or the Shares or (ii) could,
if there were an unfavorable decision, have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company
nor any Subsidiary, nor, to the Company’s knowledge, any director or officer thereof, is or has been the subject of any Action
involving a claim of violation of or liability under federal or state securities laws or a claim of breach of fiduciary duty. To
the knowledge of the Company, there has not been, and there is not pending or contemplated, any investigation by the Commission
involving the Company or any current or former director or officer of the Company. The Commission has not issued any stop order
or other order suspending the effectiveness of any registration statement filed by the Company or any Subsidiary under the Exchange
Act or the Securities Act.
(k) Labor
Relations. No labor dispute exists or, to the knowledge of the Company, is imminent with respect to any of the employees of
the Company, which could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. None of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’
employees is a member of a union that relates to such employee’s relationship with the Company or such Subsidiary, and neither
the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to a collective bargaining agreement, and the Company and its Subsidiaries believe
that their relationships with their employees are good. To the knowledge of the Company, no executive officer of the Company or
any Subsidiary, is, or is now expected to be, in violation of any material term of any employment contract, confidentiality, disclosure
or proprietary information agreement or non-competition agreement, or any other contract or agreement or any restrictive covenant
in favor of any third party, and the continued employment of each such executive officer does not subject the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries to any liability with respect to any of the foregoing matters that would reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. The Company and its Subsidiaries are in compliance with all U.S. federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations
relating to employment and employment practices, terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours, except where the failure
to be in compliance could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(l) Compliance.
Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary: (i) is in default under or in violation of (and no event has occurred that has not been
waived that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would result in a default by the Company or any Subsidiary under), nor has the
Company or any Subsidiary received notice of a claim that it is in default under or that it is in violation of, any indenture,
loan or credit agreement or any other agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties is
bound (whether or not such default or violation has been waived), (ii) is in violation of any judgment, decree or order of any
court, arbitrator or other governmental authority or (iii) is or has been in violation of any statute, rule, ordinance or regulation
of any governmental authority, including without limitation all foreign, federal, state and local laws relating to taxes, environmental
protection, occupational health and safety, product quality and safety and employment and labor matters, except in each case as
could not have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
(m) Environmental
Laws.
(i) Neither
the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in violation of any applicable international, national, state or local convention, law,
regulation, order, governmental license, convention, treaty or other requirement relating to pollution or protection of human health
or safety (as they relate to exposure to Materials of Environmental Concern (as defined below)) or protection of the environment
(including, without limitation, ambient air, surface water, groundwater, land surface or subsurface strata) or protection of natural
resources, including without limitation, conventions, laws or regulations relating to emissions, discharges, releases or threatened
releases of chemicals, pollutants, contaminants, wastes, toxic substances, hazardous substances, petroleum, petroleum products
or other hydrocarbons (collectively, “Materials of Environmental Concern”), or otherwise relating to the manufacture,
processing, distribution, use, treatment, storage, disposal, transport or handling of Materials of Environmental Concern (collectively,
“Environmental Laws”), nor has the Company or any Subsidiary received any written communication, whether from
a Governmental Authority, citizens group, employee or otherwise, that alleges that the Company or any such Subsidiary is in violation
of any Environmental Law or governmental license required pursuant to Environmental Law; except, in each case, as would not, individually
or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect;
(ii) There
is no claim, action or cause of action filed with a court or Governmental Authority and no investigation, or other action with
respect to which the Company or any Subsidiary has received written notice alleging potential liability for investigatory costs,
cleanup costs, governmental response costs, natural resources damages, property damages, personal injuries, attorneys’ fees
or penalties arising out of, based on or resulting from the presence, or release into the environment, of any Material of Environmental
Concern at any location owned, leased or operated by the Company or any Subsidiary, now or in the past (collectively, “Environmental
Claim”), pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against the Company or any Subsidiary or any person
or entity whose liability for any Environmental Claim the Company or any Subsidiary has retained or assumed either contractually
or by operation of law, except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect;
(iii) To
the knowledge of the Company, there are no past or present actions, activities, circumstances, conditions, events or incidents,
including, without limitation, the release, emission, discharge, presence or disposal of any Material of Environmental Concern,
that reasonably would be expected to result in a violation of any Environmental Law, require expenditures to be incurred pursuant
to Environmental Law, or form the basis of an Environmental Claim against the Company, any Subsidiary or against any person or
entity whose liability for any Environmental Claim the Company or any Subsidiary has retained or assumed either contractually or
by operation of law, except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect;
(iv) None
of the Company or any Subsidiary is subject to any pending proceeding under Environmental Law to which a Governmental Authority
is a party and which the Company reasonably believes is likely to result in monetary sanctions of $100,000 or more. The Company
has reasonably concluded that any existing compliance and remediation costs and liabilities arising under Environmental Laws and
resulting from the business, operations or properties of the Company or any Subsidiary would not, individually or in the aggregate,
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No facts or circumstances have come to the Company’s attention
that could result in costs or liabilities that could be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse
Effect.
(n) Regulatory
Permits. The Company and the Subsidiaries possess all certificates, authorizations and permits issued by the appropriate federal,
state, local or foreign regulatory authorities necessary to conduct their respective businesses as described in the SEC Reports,
except where the failure to possess such permits could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect (“Material
Permits”), and neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation
or modification of any Material Permit.
(o) Title
to Assets. The Company and the Subsidiaries have good and marketable title in fee simple to all real property owned by them
and good and marketable title in all personal property owned by them that is material to the business of the Company and the Subsidiaries,
in each case free and clear of all Liens, except for (i) Liens as do not materially affect the value of such property and do not
materially interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property by the Company and the Subsidiaries and (ii) Liens
for the payment of federal, state or other taxes, for which appropriate reserves have been made therefor in accordance with GAAP
and, the payment of which is neither delinquent nor subject to penalties. Any real property and facilities held under lease by
the Company and the Subsidiaries are held by them under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases with which the Company and the
Subsidiaries are in compliance.
(p) Intellectual
Property. The Company and the Subsidiaries have, or have rights to use, all patents, patent applications, trademarks, trademark
applications, service marks, trade names, trade secrets, inventions, copyrights, licenses and other intellectual property rights
and similar rights necessary or required for use in connection with their respective businesses as described in the SEC Reports
and which the failure to so have could have a Material Adverse Effect (collectively, the “Intellectual Property Rights”).
None of, and neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received a notice (written or otherwise) that any of, the Intellectual
Property Rights has expired, terminated or been abandoned, or is expected to expire or terminate or be abandoned, within two (2)
years from the date of this Agreement, except where such action would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received, since the date of the latest audited financial statements included within
the SEC Reports, a written notice of a claim or otherwise has any knowledge that the Intellectual Property Rights violate or infringe
upon the rights of any Person, except as could not have or reasonably be expected to not have a Material Adverse Effect. To the
knowledge of the Company, all such Intellectual Property Rights are enforceable and there is no existing infringement by another
Person of any of the Intellectual Property Rights. The Company and its Subsidiaries have taken reasonable security measures to
protect the secrecy, confidentiality and value of all of their intellectual properties, except where failure to do so could not,
individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(q) Insurance.
The Company and the Subsidiaries are insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks and
in such amounts as are prudent and customary in the businesses in which the Company and the Subsidiaries are engaged, including,
but not limited to, directors and officers insurance coverage at least equal to the aggregate Subscription Amount. Neither the
Company nor any Subsidiary has any reason to believe that it will not be able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when
such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its business without
a significant increase in cost.
(r) Transactions
With Affiliates and Employees. None of the officers or directors of the Company or any Subsidiary and, to the knowledge of
the Company, none of the employees of the Company or any Subsidiary is presently a party to any transaction with the Company or
any Subsidiary (other than for services as employees, officers and directors), including any contract, agreement or other arrangement
providing for the furnishing of services to or by, providing for rental of real or personal property to or from, providing for
the borrowing of money from or lending of money to or otherwise requiring payments to or from any officer, director or such employee
or, to the knowledge of the Company, any entity in which any officer, director, or any such employee has a substantial interest
or is an officer, director, trustee, stockholder, member or partner, in each case in excess of $120,000 other than for (i) payment
of salary or consulting fees for services rendered, (ii) reimbursement for expenses incurred on behalf of the Company and (iii)
other employee benefits, including stock option agreements under any stock option plan of the Company.
(s) Sarbanes-Oxley;
Internal Accounting Controls. The Company and the Subsidiaries are in material compliance with any and all applicable requirements
of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 that are effective as of the date hereof, and any and all applicable rules and regulations promulgated
by the Commission thereunder that are effective as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date. The Company and the Subsidiaries
maintain a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that: (i) transactions are executed
in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted
only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization, and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is
compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. The
Company and the Subsidiaries have established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e)
and 15d-15(e)) for the Company and the Subsidiaries and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that information
required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized
and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. The Company’s certifying officers
have evaluated the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures of the Company and the Subsidiaries as of the end of
the period covered by the most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act (such date, the “Evaluation Date”).
The Company presented in its most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act the conclusions of the certifying officers
about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the
Evaluation Date, there have been no changes in the internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in the Exchange
Act) of the Company and its Subsidiaries that have materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the internal
control over financial reporting of the Company and its Subsidiaries.
(t) Certain
Fees. Except as set forth in the Prospectus Supplement, no brokerage or finder’s fees or commissions are or will be payable
by the Company or any Subsidiary to any broker, financial advisor or consultant, finder, placement agent, investment banker, bank
or other Person with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. The Purchasers shall have no obligation
with respect to any fees or with respect to any claims made by or on behalf of other Persons for fees of a type contemplated in
this Section that may be due in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.
(u) Investment
Company. The Company is not, and is not an Affiliate of, and immediately after receipt of payment for the Securities, will
not be or be an Affiliate of, an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended. The Company shall conduct its business in a manner so that it will not become an “investment company” subject
to registration under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
(v) Registration
Rights. No Person has any right to cause the Company or any Subsidiary to effect the registration under the Securities Act
of any securities of the Company or any Subsidiary.
(w) Listing
and Maintenance Requirements. The shares of Common Stock are registered pursuant to Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange
Act, and the Company has taken no action designed to, or which to its knowledge is likely to have the effect of, terminating the
registration of the Common Stock under the Exchange Act nor has the Company received any notification that the Commission is contemplating
terminating such registration. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.1(w), the Company has not, in the twelve (12) months
preceding the date hereof, received notice from any Trading Market on which the Common Stock is or has been listed or quoted to
the effect that the Company is not in compliance with the listing or maintenance requirements of such Trading Market. Except as
set forth on Schedule 3.1(w), the Company is, and has no reason to believe that it will not in the foreseeable future
continue to be, in compliance with all such listing and maintenance requirements. The Common Stock is currently eligible for electronic
transfer through the Depository Trust Company or another established clearing corporation and the Company is current in payment
of the fees to the Depository Trust Company (or such other established clearing corporation) in connection with such electronic
transfer.
(x) Application
of Takeover Protections. The Company and the Board of Directors have taken all necessary action, if any, in order to render
inapplicable any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement)
or other similar anti-takeover provision under the Company’s certificate of incorporation (or similar charter documents)
or the laws of its state of incorporation that is or could become applicable to the Purchasers as a result of the Purchasers and
the Company fulfilling their obligations or exercising their rights under the Transaction Documents, including without limitation
as a result of the Company’s issuance of the Securities and the Purchasers’ ownership of the Securities.
(y) Disclosure.
Except with respect to the material terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, the Company
confirms that neither it nor any other Person acting on its behalf has provided any of the Purchasers or their agents or counsel
with any information that it believes constitutes or might constitute material, non-public information which is not otherwise disclosed
in the Prospectus Supplement. The Company understands and confirms that the Purchasers
will rely on the foregoing representation in effecting transactions in securities of the Company. All of the disclosure furnished
by or on behalf of the Company to the Purchasers regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries, their respective businesses and the
transactions contemplated hereby, including the Disclosure Schedules to this Agreement, is true and correct and does not contain
any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein,
in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The press releases disseminated by the Company during
the twelve months preceding the date of this Agreement taken as a whole do not 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 therein, in the light
of the circumstances under which they were made and when made, not misleading. The Company acknowledges and agrees that no Purchaser
makes or has made any representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby other than those specifically
set forth in Section 3.2 hereof.
(z) No
Integrated Offering. Assuming the accuracy of the Purchasers’ representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2,
neither the Company, nor any of its Affiliates, nor any Person acting on its or their behalf has, directly or indirectly, made
any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would cause this offering
of the Securities to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of any applicable shareholder approval provisions
of any Trading Market on which any of the securities of the Company are listed or designated.
(aa) Solvency.
Based on the consolidated financial condition of the Company as of the Closing Date, after giving effect to the receipt by the
Company of the proceeds from the sale of the Shares hereunder, (i) the fair saleable value of the Company’s assets exceeds
the amount that will be required to be paid on or in respect of the Company’s existing debts and other liabilities (including
known contingent liabilities) as they mature, (ii) the Company’s assets do not constitute unreasonably small capital to carry
on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted including its capital needs taking into account the particular
capital requirements of the business conducted by the Company, consolidated and projected capital requirements and capital availability
thereof, and (iii) the current cash flow of the Company, together with the proceeds the Company would receive, were it to liquidate
all of its assets, after taking into account all anticipated uses of the cash, would be sufficient to pay all amounts on or in
respect of its liabilities when such amounts are required to be paid. The Company does not intend to incur debts beyond its ability
to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be payable on or in respect of its debt).
The Company has no knowledge of any facts or circumstances which lead it to believe that it will file for reorganization or liquidation
under the bankruptcy or reorganization laws of any jurisdiction within one year from the Closing Date. The SEC Reports set forth
as of the date hereof all outstanding secured and unsecured Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary, or for which the Company
or any Subsidiary has commitments. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default with respect to any Indebtedness. For the
purposes of this Agreement, “Indebtedness” means (x) any liabilities for borrowed money or amounts owed in excess
of $50,000 (other than trade accounts payable incurred in the ordinary course of business), (y) all guaranties, endorsements and
other contingent obligations in respect of indebtedness of others, whether or not the same are or should be reflected in the Company’s
consolidated balance sheet (or the notes thereto), except guaranties by endorsement of negotiable instruments for deposit or collection
or similar transactions in the ordinary course of business; and (z) the present value of any lease payments in excess of $50,000
due under leases required to be capitalized in accordance with GAAP.
(bb) Tax
Status. Except for matters that would not, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to result in a
Material Adverse Effect, the Company and its Subsidiaries each (i) has made or filed all United States federal, state and local
income and all foreign income and franchise tax returns, reports and declarations required by any jurisdiction to which it is subject,
(ii) has paid all taxes and other governmental assessments and charges that are material in amount, shown or determined to be due
on such returns, reports and declarations and (iii) has set aside on its books provision reasonably adequate for the payment of
all material taxes for periods subsequent to the periods to which such returns, reports or declarations apply. There are no unpaid
taxes in any material amount claimed to be due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction, and the officers of the Company or
of any Subsidiary know of no basis for any such claim.
(cc) Foreign
Corrupt Practices. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary, nor to the knowledge of the Company or any Subsidiary, any agent
or other person acting on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary, has (i) directly or indirectly, used any funds for unlawful
contributions, gifts, entertainment or other unlawful expenses related to foreign or domestic political activity, (ii) made any
unlawful payment to foreign or domestic government officials or employees or to any foreign or domestic political parties or campaigns
from corporate funds, (iii) failed to disclose fully any contribution made by the Company or any Subsidiary (or made by any person
acting on its behalf of which the Company is aware) which is in violation of law, or (iv) violated in any material respect any
provision of FCPA.

The Company’s accounting firm is set forth in the SEC Reports. To the knowledge and belief of the Company, the Company’s
accounting firm (i) is a registered public accounting firm as required by the Exchange Act and (ii) shall express its opinion with
respect to the financial statements to be included in the Company’s Annual Report for the fiscal year ending December 31,
2023.
(ee) Acknowledgment
Regarding Purchasers’ Purchase of Securities. The Company acknowledges and agrees that each of the Purchasers is acting
solely in the capacity of an arm’s length purchaser with respect to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated
thereby. The Company further acknowledges that no Purchaser is acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of the Company (or in
any similar capacity) with respect to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby and any advice given
by any Purchaser or any of their respective representatives or agents in connection with the Transaction Documents and the transactions
contemplated thereby is merely incidental to the Purchasers’ purchase of the Securities. The Company further represents to
each Purchaser that the Company’s decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents has been based
solely on the independent evaluation of the transactions contemplated hereby by the Company and its representatives.
(ff) Acknowledgment
Regarding Purchaser’s Trading Activity. Anything in this Agreement or elsewhere herein to the contrary notwithstanding
(except for Sections 3.2(f) and 4.13 hereof), it is understood and acknowledged by the Company that: (i) none of the Purchasers
has been asked by the Company to agree, nor has any Purchaser agreed, to desist from purchasing or selling, long and/or short,
securities of the Company, or “derivative” securities based on securities issued by the Company or to hold the Securities
for any specified term; (ii) past or future open market or other transactions by any Purchaser, specifically including, without
limitation, Short Sales or “derivative” transactions, before or after the closing of this or future private placement
transactions, may negatively impact the market price of the Company’s publicly-traded securities; (iii) any Purchaser, and
counter-parties in “derivative” transactions to which any such Purchaser is a party, directly or indirectly, presently
may have a “short” position in the Common Stock, and (iv) each Purchaser shall not be deemed to have any affiliation
with or control over any arm’s length counter-party in any “derivative” transaction. The Company further understands
and acknowledges that (y) one or more Purchasers may engage in hedging activities at various times during the period that the Securities
are outstanding, and (z) such hedging activities (if any) could reduce the value of the existing stockholders’ equity interests
in the Company at and after the time that the hedging activities are being conducted. The Company acknowledges that such aforementioned
hedging activities do not constitute a breach of any of the Transaction Documents.
(gg) Regulation
M Compliance. The Company has not, and to its knowledge no one acting on its behalf has, (i) taken, directly or indirectly,
any action designed to cause or to result in the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company to facilitate
the sale or resale of any of the Securities, (ii) sold, bid for, purchased, or, paid any compensation for soliciting purchases
of, any of the Securities, or (iii) paid or agreed to pay to any Person any compensation for soliciting another to purchase any
other securities of the Company, other than, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), compensation paid to the Placement Agent in
connection with the placement of the Securities.

with the terms of the Company’s stock option plan and (ii) with an exercise price at least equal to the fair market value
of the Common Stock on the date such stock option would be considered granted under GAAP and applicable law. No stock option granted
under the Company’s stock option plan has been backdated. The Company has not knowingly granted, and there is no and has
been no Company policy or practice to knowingly grant, stock options prior to, or otherwise knowingly coordinate the grant of stock
options with, the release or other public announcement of material information regarding the Company or its Subsidiaries or their
financial results or prospects.

3.2 Representations
and Warranties of the Purchasers. Each Purchaser, for itself and for no other Purchaser, hereby represents and warrants as
of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date to the Company as follows (unless as of a specific date therein, in which case they
shall be accurate as of such date):
(a) Organization;
Authority. Such Purchaser is either an individual or an entity duly incorporated or formed, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation with full right, corporate, partnership, limited liability
company or similar power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents
and otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder and thereunder. The execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and
performance by such Purchaser of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents have been duly authorized by all necessary
corporate, partnership, limited liability company or similar action, as applicable, on the part of such Purchaser. Each Transaction
Document to which it is a party has been duly executed by such Purchaser, and when delivered by such Purchaser in accordance with
the terms hereof, will constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of such Purchaser, enforceable against it in accordance
with its terms, except: (i) as limited by general equitable principles and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium
and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) as limited by laws relating
to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies and (iii) insofar as indemnification
and contribution provisions may be limited by applicable law.
(b) Understandings
or Arrangements. Such Purchaser is acquiring the Securities as principal for its own account and has no direct or indirect
arrangement or understandings with any other persons to distribute or regarding the distribution of such Securities (this representation
and warranty not limiting such Purchaser’s right to sell the Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement, Prospectus
and Prospectus Supplement or otherwise in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws). Such Purchaser is acquiring
the Securities hereunder in the ordinary course of its business.
(c) Purchaser
Status. At the time such Purchaser was offered the Securities, it was, and as of the date hereof it is, either: (i) an “accredited
investor” as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (a)(2), (a)(3), (a)(7) or (a)(8) under the Securities Act or (ii) a “qualified
institutional buyer” as defined in Rule 144A(a) under the Securities Act.
(d) Experience
of Such Purchaser. Such Purchaser, either alone or together with its representatives, has such knowledge, sophistication and
experience in business and financial matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment
in the Securities, and has so evaluated the merits and risks of such investment. Such Purchaser is able to bear the economic risk
of an investment in the Securities and, at the present time, is able to afford a complete loss of such investment.
(e) Access
to Information. Such Purchaser acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to review the Transaction Documents (including
all exhibits and schedules thereto) and the SEC Reports and has been afforded, (i) the opportunity to ask such questions as it
has deemed necessary of, and to receive answers from, representatives of the Company concerning the terms and conditions of the
offering of the Securities and the merits and risks of investing in the Securities; (ii) access to information about the Company
and its financial condition, results of operations, business, properties, management and prospects sufficient to enable it to evaluate
its investment; and (iii) the opportunity to obtain such additional information that the Company possesses or can acquire without
unreasonable effort or expense that is necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to the investment. Such Purchaser
acknowledges and agrees that neither the Placement Agent nor any Affiliate of the Placement Agent has provided such Purchaser with
any information or advice with respect to the Securities nor is such information or advice necessary or desired. Neither the Placement
Agent nor any Affiliate has made or makes any representation as to the Company or the quality of the Securities and the Placement
Agent and any Affiliate may have acquired non-public information with respect to the Company which such Purchaser agrees need not
be provided to it. In connection with the issuance of the Securities to such Purchaser, neither the Placement Agent nor any of
its Affiliates has acted as a financial advisor or fiduciary to such Purchaser.
(f) Certain
Transactions and Confidentiality. Other than consummating the transactions contemplated hereunder, such Purchaser has not,
nor has any Person acting on behalf of or pursuant to any understanding with such Purchaser, directly or indirectly executed any
purchases or sales, including Short Sales, of the securities of the Company during the period commencing as of the time that such
Purchaser first received a term sheet (written or oral) from the Company or any other Person representing the Company setting forth
the material pricing terms of the transactions contemplated hereunder and ending immediately prior to the execution hereof. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in the case of a Purchaser that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage
separate portions of such Purchaser’s assets and the portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions
made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Purchaser’s assets, the representation set forth above shall
only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase
the Securities covered by this Agreement. Other than to other Persons party to this Agreement or to such Purchaser’s representatives,
including, without limitation, its officers, directors, partners, legal and other advisors, employees, agents and Affiliates, such
Purchaser has maintained the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in connection with this transaction (including the existence
and terms of this transaction). Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall constitute
a representation or warranty, or preclude any actions, with respect to locating or borrowing shares in order to effect Short Sales
or similar transactions in the future.
(g) General
Solicitation. Such Purchaser is not purchasing the Securities as a result of any advertisement, article, notice or other communication
regarding the Securities published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio or presented
at any seminar or, to the knowledge of such Purchaser, any other general solicitation or general advertisement.
The
Company acknowledges and agrees that the representations contained in this Section 3.2 shall not modify, amend or affect such
Purchaser’s right to rely on the Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any representations
and warranties contained in any other Transaction Document or any other document or instrument executed and/or delivered in connection
with this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the avoidance
of doubt, nothing contained herein shall constitute a representation or warranty, or preclude any actions, with respect to locating
or borrowing shares in order to effect Short Sales or similar transactions in the future.

The Company shall not sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined
in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Shares for purposes of the rules

unless shareholder approval is obtained before the closing of such subsequent transaction.

Laws Disclosure; Publicity. The Company shall (a) by the Disclosure Time, issue a press release disclosing the material terms
of the transactions contemplated hereby, and (b) file a Current Report on Form 8-K, including the Transaction Documents as exhibits
thereto, with the Commission within the time required by the Exchange Act. From and after the issuance of such press release, the
Company represents to the Purchasers that it shall have publicly disclosed all material, non-public information delivered to any
of the Purchasers by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, Affiliates
or agents, including, without limitation, the Placement Agent, in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Documents. In addition, effective upon the issuance of such press release, the Company acknowledges and agrees that any and all
confidentiality or similar obligations under any agreement, whether written or oral, between the Company, any of its Subsidiaries
or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, Affiliates or agents, including, without limitation, the Placement Agent,
on the one hand, and any of the Purchasers or any of their Affiliates on the other hand, shall terminate and be no further force

in securities of the Company. The Company and each Purchaser shall consult with each other in issuing any other press releases
with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, and neither the Company nor any Purchaser shall issue any such press release
nor otherwise make any such public statement without the prior consent of the Company, with respect to any press release of any
Purchaser, or without the prior consent of each Purchaser, with respect to any press release of the Company, which consent shall
not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, except if such disclosure is required by law, in which case the disclosing party shall
promptly provide the other party with prior notice of such public statement or communication. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Company shall not publicly disclose the name of any Purchaser, or include the name of any Purchaser in any filing with the Commission
or any regulatory agency or Trading Market, without the prior written consent of such Purchaser, except (a) as required by federal
securities law in connection with the filing of final Transaction Documents with the Commission and (b) to the extent such disclosure
is required by law or Trading Market regulations, in which case the Company shall provide the Purchasers with prior notice of such
disclosure permitted under this clause (b) and reasonably cooperate with such Purchaser regarding such disclosure.
4.5 Shareholder
Rights Plan. No claim will be made or enforced by the Company or, with the consent of the Company, any other Person, that any
Purchaser is an “Acquiring Person” under any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including
any distribution under a rights agreement) or similar anti-takeover plan or arrangement in effect or hereafter adopted by the Company,
or that any Purchaser could be deemed to trigger the provisions of any such plan or arrangement, by virtue of receiving Securities
under the Transaction Documents or under any other agreement between the Company and the Purchasers.
4.6 Non-Public
Information. Except with respect to the material terms and conditions of the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents, which shall be disclosed pursuant to Section 4.4, the Company covenants and agrees
that neither it, nor any other Person acting on its behalf will provide any Purchaser or its agents or counsel with any information
that constitutes, or the Company reasonably believes constitutes, material non-public information, unless prior thereto such Purchaser
shall have consented in writing to the receipt of such information and agreed in writing with the Company to keep such information
confidential. The Company understands and confirms that each Purchaser shall be relying on the foregoing covenant in effecting
transactions in securities of the Company. To the extent that the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective
officers, directors, agents, employees or Affiliates delivers any material, non-public information to a Purchaser without such
Purchaser’s consent, the Company hereby covenants and agrees that such Purchaser shall not have any duty of confidentiality
to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, Affiliates or agents, including,
without limitation, the Placement Agent, or a duty to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers,
directors, employees, Affiliates or agents, including, without limitation, the Placement Agent, not to trade on the basis of, such
material, non-public information, provided that the Purchaser shall remain subject to applicable law. To the extent that any notice
provided pursuant to any Transaction Document constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company
or any Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously with the delivery of such notice file such notice with the Commission pursuant
to a Current Report on Form 8-K. The Company understands and confirms that each Purchaser shall be relying on the foregoing covenant
in effecting transactions in securities of the Company.
4.7 Use
of Proceeds. The Company shall use the net proceeds from the sale of the Securities hereunder for working capital and general
corporate purposes, and not for the repayment of debt or in violation of FCPA or OFAC regulations.
4.8 Indemnification
of Purchasers. Subject to the provisions of this Section 4.8, the Company will
indemnify and hold each Purchaser and its directors, officers, shareholders, members, partners, employees and agents (and any other
Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title),
each Person who controls such Purchaser (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the
Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, shareholders, agents, members, partners or employees (and any other Persons with a
functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title) of such controlling
persons (each, a “Purchaser Party”) harmless from any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, contingencies,
damages, costs and expenses, including all judgments, amounts paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable attorneys’
fees and costs of investigation that any such Purchaser Party may suffer or incur as a result of or relating to (a) any breach
of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Company in this Agreement or in the other Transaction
Documents, or (b) any action instituted against the Purchaser Parties in any capacity, or any of them or their respective Affiliates,
by any stockholder of the Company who is not an Affiliate of such Purchaser Party, with respect to any of the transactions contemplated
by the Transaction Documents (unless such action is solely based upon a material breach of such Purchaser Party’s representations,
warranties or covenants under the Transaction Documents or any agreements or understandings such Purchaser Party may have with
any such stockholder or any violations by such Purchaser Party of state or federal securities laws or any conduct by such Purchaser
Party which is finally judicially determined to constitute fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct or malfeasance), the Company
will indemnify each Purchaser Party, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims,
damages, liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) and expenses, as incurred, arising
out of or relating to (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement, any
prospectus or any form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out
of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein (in the case of any prospectus or supplement thereto, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not
misleading, except to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statements or omissions are based solely upon information
regarding such Purchaser Party furnished in writing to the Company by such Purchaser Party expressly for use therein, or (ii) any
violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law, or any rule
or regulation thereunder in connection therewith. If any action shall be brought against any Purchaser Party in respect of which
indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Agreement, such Purchaser Party shall promptly notify the Company in writing, and the
Company shall have the right to assume the defense thereof with counsel of its own choosing reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser
Party. Any Purchaser Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof,
but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Purchaser Party except to the extent that (x) the employment
thereof has been specifically authorized by the Company in writing, (y) the Company has failed after a reasonable period of time
to assume such defense and to employ counsel or (z) in such action there is, in the reasonable opinion of counsel, a material conflict
on any material issue between the position of the Company and the position of such Purchaser Party, in which case the Company shall
be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of no more than one such separate counsel. The Company will not be liable to
any Purchaser Party under this Agreement (1) for any settlement by a Purchaser Party effected without the Company’s prior
written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; or (2) to the extent, but only to the extent that a loss,
claim, damage or liability is attributable to any Purchaser Party’s breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants
or agreements made by such Purchaser Party in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents. The indemnification required
by this Section 4.8 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense,
as and when bills are received or are incurred, provided that, in the event that it is judicially determined in a final
judgement not subject to appeal by a court of competent jurisdiction that such Purchaser Party was not entitled to receive payments
for legal and other expenses pursuant to this subparagraph, the Purchaser Party will promptly return all sums that had been advanced
pursuant hereto. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to any cause of action or similar right of any
Purchaser Party against the Company or others and any liabilities the Company may be subject to pursuant to law.
4.9 Reservation
of Common Stock. As of the date hereof, the Company has reserved and the Company shall continue to reserve and keep available
at all times, free of preemptive rights, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock for the purpose of enabling the Company
to issue Shares pursuant to this Agreement.
4.10 Listing
of Common Stock. The Company hereby agrees to use reasonable best efforts to maintain the listing or quotation of the Common
Stock on the Trading Market on which it is currently listed, and concurrently with the Closing, the Company shall, if required
by such Trading Market, apply to list or quote all of the Shares on such Trading Market and promptly secure the listing of all
of the Shares on such Trading Market. The Company further agrees, if the Company applies to have the Common Stock traded on any
other Trading Market, it will then include in such application all of the Shares, and will take such other action as is necessary
to cause all of the Shares to be listed or quoted on such other Trading Market as promptly as possible. The Company will then take
all action reasonably necessary to continue the listing and trading of its Common Stock on a Trading Market and will comply in
all respects with the Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of the Trading Market.
The Company agrees to maintain the eligibility of the Common Stock for electronic transfer through the Depository Trust Company
or another established clearing corporation, including, without limitation, by timely payment of fees to the Depository Trust Company
or such other established clearing corporation in connection with such electronic transfer.
4.11 Subsequent
Equity Sales.
(a) From
the date hereof until thirty (30) calendar days after the Closing Date, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall issue, enter
into any agreement to issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents
or file with the Commission any registration statements providing for the issuance or proposes issuance of any shares of Common
Stock or Common Stock Equivalents other than the Prospectus Supplement.
(b) Notwithstanding
the foregoing, this Section 4.11 shall not apply in respect of an Exempt Issuance. For the avoidance of doubt, any securities
issuable pursuant to the terms of the Company’s (1) purchase agreement, dated April 10, 2023, with Lincoln Park Capital
Fund, LLC and (2) At The Market Offering Agreement, dated June 2, 2023, with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC as sales agent,
shall not constitute an Exempt Issuance.
4.12 Equal
Treatment of Purchasers. No consideration (including any modification of any Transaction Document) shall be offered or paid
to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration
is also offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents. For clarification purposes, this provision constitutes a separate
right granted to each Purchaser by the Company and negotiated separately by each Purchaser, and is intended for the Company to
treat the Purchasers as a class and shall not in any way be construed as the Purchasers acting in concert or as a group with respect
to the purchase, disposition or voting of Securities or otherwise.
4.13 Certain
Transactions and Confidentiality. Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, covenants that neither
it nor any Affiliate acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will execute any purchases or sales, including
Short Sales of any of the Company’s securities during the period commencing with the execution of this Agreement and ending
at such time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced pursuant to the initial press release
as described in Section 4.4. Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, covenants that until such
time as the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed by the Company pursuant to the initial press release
as described in Section 4.4, such Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of the existence and terms of this transaction
and the information included in the Disclosure Schedules. Notwithstanding the foregoing and notwithstanding anything contained
in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that (i) no Purchaser makes any representation,
warranty or covenant hereby that it will not engage in effecting transactions in any securities of the Company after the time that
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced pursuant to the initial press release as described
in Section 4.4, (ii) no Purchaser shall be restricted or prohibited from effecting any transactions in any securities of the
Company in accordance with applicable securities laws from and after the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
are first publicly announced pursuant to the initial press release as described in Section 4.4 and (iii) no Purchaser shall
have any duty of confidentiality or duty not to trade in the securities of the Company to the Company any of its Subsidiaries,
or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, Affiliates or agent, including, without limitation, the Placement Agent,
after the issuance of the initial press release as described in Section 4.4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of
a Purchaser that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Purchaser’s
assets and the portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing
other portions of such Purchaser’s assets, the covenant set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets
managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Shares covered by this Agreement.

by the party against whom enforcement of any such waived provision is sought, provided that if any amendment, modification or waiver
disproportionately and adversely impacts a Purchaser (or group of Purchasers), the consent of such disproportionately impacted
Purchaser (or group of Purchasers) shall also be required. No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or
requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or

right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right. Any proposed amendment or waiver that disproportionately,
materially and adversely affects the rights and obligations of any Purchaser relative to the comparable rights and obligations

5.9 Governing
Law; Venue. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of the Transaction Documents

exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive
jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan for the adjudication of any
dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect
to the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any Action

5.12 Execution.
This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same

understood that the parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission
or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the
party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf”
signature page were an original thereof.
5.13 Severability.
If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal,
void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full
force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their commercially
reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated
by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties that
they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be
hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.
5.14 Rescission
and Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of)
any of the other Transaction Documents, whenever any Purchaser exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction
Document and the Company does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then such Purchaser
may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand
or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights.
5.15 Replacement
of Securities. If any certificate or instrument evidencing any Securities is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company
shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation thereof (in the case of mutilation), or
in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory
to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction. The applicant for a new certificate or instrument under such circumstances shall
also pay any reasonable third-party costs (including customary indemnity) associated with the issuance of such replacement Securities.
5.16 Remedies.
In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of
the Purchasers and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under the Transaction Documents. The parties agree that
monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations contained in the
Transaction Documents and hereby agree to waive and not to assert in any Action for specific performance of any such obligation
the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.
5.17 Payment
Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to any Purchaser pursuant to any Transaction Document
or a Purchaser enforces or exercises its rights thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or
exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from,
disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other Person
under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action),
then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived
and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.
5.18 Independent
Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Purchaser under any Transaction Document are several
and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance
or non-performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any
other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the
Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers
are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Documents. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights including, without limitation, the
rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser
to be joined as an additional party in any Proceeding for such purpose. Each Purchaser has been represented by its own separate
legal counsel in its review and negotiation of the Transaction Documents. For reasons of administrative convenience only, each
Purchaser and its respective counsel have chosen to communicate with the Company through PC. PC does not represent any of the Purchasers
and only represents the Placement Agent. The Company has elected to provide all Purchasers with the same terms and Transaction
Documents for the convenience of the Company and not because it was required or requested to do so by any of the Purchasers. It
is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained in this Agreement and in each other Transaction Document is between
the Company and a Purchaser, solely, and not between the Company and the Purchasers collectively and not between and among the
Purchasers.
5.19 Liquidated
Damages. The Company’s obligations to pay any partial liquidated damages or other amounts owing under the Transaction
Documents is a continuing obligation of the Company and shall not terminate until all unpaid partial liquidated damages and other
amounts have been paid notwithstanding the fact that the instrument or security pursuant to which such partial liquidated damages
or other amounts are due and payable shall have been canceled.
5.20 Saturdays,
Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required
or granted herein shall not be a Business Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding
Business Day.
5.21 Construction.
The parties agree that each of them and/or their respective counsel have reviewed and had an opportunity to revise the Transaction
Documents and, therefore, the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting
party shall not be employed in the interpretation of the Transaction Documents or any amendments thereto. In addition, each and
every reference to share prices and shares of Common Stock in any Transaction Document shall be subject to adjustment for reverse
and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Common Stock that occur after
the date of this Agreement.
5.22 WAIVER
OF JURY TRIAL. IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING IN ANY JURISDICTION BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY, THE PARTIES
EACH KNOWINGLY AND INTENTIONALLY, TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, HEREBY ABSOLUTELY, UNCONDITIONALLY, IRREVOCABLY
AND EXPRESSLY WAIVES FOREVER TRIAL BY JURY.
