(“Common Stock”) and 1,500,000 shares (the “Common Shares”) of its Common Stock.
The
Preferred Shares are being issued by the Company pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated June 26, 2022 (the “Preferred
Shares Securities Purchase Agreement”) filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on June 30, 2022 (the “June 30, 2022 Current Report”) and

Purchase Agreement”) to be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed with
the Commission (the “Commission”).
The

not examined the laws of any jurisdiction other than Nevada. Accordingly, the opinions we express herein are limited to matters involving
the laws of the State of Nevada, excluding securities laws of the State of Nevada as to which we express no opinion. We express no opinion
regarding the effect of the laws of any other jurisdiction or state, including any securities laws related to the issuance and sale of
