ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS

By using a shelf registration statement, the selling securityholders may, from time to time, sell up to 778,646 shares of common stock in one or more offerings as described in this prospectus. In connection with the offer and sale of securities by the selling securityholders, the selling securityholders may provide a prospectus supplement to this prospectus that contains specific information about the securities being offered and sold and the specific terms of that offering. We may also authorize one or more free writing prospectuses to be provided to you that may contain material information relating to these offerings. Any such prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus may also add, update or change information contained in this prospectus with respect to that offering. If there is any inconsistency between the information in this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus, you should rely on the prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus, as applicable.

Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since those dates. This prospectus incorporates by reference, and any prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus may contain and incorporate by reference, market data and industry statistics and forecasts that are based on independent industry publications and other publicly available information. Although we believe these sources are reliable, we do not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of this information and we have not independently verified this information. In addition, the market and industry data and forecasts that may be included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, any prospectus supplement or any applicable free writing prospectus may involve estimates, assumptions and other risks and uncertainties and are subject to change based on various factors, including those discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” contained in this prospectus, the applicable prospectus supplement and any applicable free writing prospectus, and under similar headings in other documents that are incorporated by reference into this prospectus. Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on this information.

THE COMPANY
We are a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company engaged in the science of ribosome modulation, leveraging both our innovative TURBO-ZM™ chemistry technology platform and our library of novel aminoglycosides to develop novel oral small molecule Ribosome Modulating Agents (“RMAs”) and Eukaryotic Ribosome Selective Glycosides (“ERSGs”), for the treatment of rare and ultra-rare genetic diseases where patients have point nonsense genetic mutations that result in premature stop codons and less than full length proteins. Nonsense mutations result in premature stop codons in the impacted messenger RNA (“mRNA”) which in turn disrupt protein synthesis from that mRNA leading to less than full length proteins. Patients with these mutations have significantly worse outcomes than those with missense mutations.
We have multiple programs in our pipeline including a clinical program for the treatment of Alport syndrome with ELX-02 (subcutaneous delivery), preclinical programs in investigational new drug (“IND”) enabling stages in Recessive Dystrophic (“RDEB”) and Junctional Epidermolysis Bullosa (“JEB”) and Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (“FAP”) with ZKN-013. We also have a discovery stage programs in cystic fibrosis. As our programs advance, we plan to actively look to expand our pipeline by seeking new indications in other rare diseases for compounds designed with our platforms. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) has granted Fast Track designation for ELX-02 for the treatment of CF patients with nonsense mutations. In addition, the FDA granted ELX-02 Orphan Drug Designation for the treatment of CF in July 2020 and based on the European Medicines Agency’s (“EMA”) positive opinion, the European Commission granted ELX-02 orphan medicinal product designation in September 2018.
We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware. Our principal executive offices are located at 480 Arsenal Way, Watertown, Massachusetts 02472, and our phone number is (781) 577-5300. Our common stock is listed on the OTC Pink Marketplace under the symbol “ELOX.” Our internet address is www.eloxxpharma.com. Our Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K, proxy statements and all amendments to those reports are available to you free of charge through the “Investors-Financials & Filings” section of our website as soon as reasonably practicable after those materials have been electronically filed with, or furnished to, the SEC. The information contained on, or that can be accessed through, our website is not incorporated by reference into, and is not a part of, this Annual Report. In addition, the SEC maintains a website (www.sec.gov) that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding issuers that file electronically.
RISK FACTORS
Investment in any securities offered pursuant to this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement involves risks. You should carefully consider the risk factors incorporated by reference to our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or Current Reports on Form 8-K, and all other information contained or incorporated by reference into this prospectus, as updated by our subsequent filings under the Exchange Act, and the risk factors and other information contained in any applicable prospectus supplement and any applicable free writing prospectus before making a decision about investing in our securities. The occurrence of any of these risks might cause you to lose all or part of your investment in the offered securities.
USE OF PROCEEDS
We are registering our common stock that are being offered by the selling securityholders and the resale of shares of our common stock that may be issued upon exercise of warrants. We will receive the proceeds from any exercise of warrants for cash. We intend to use the proceeds from the exercise of warrants for cash for general corporate and working capital purposes.
We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of common stock being offered by any of the selling securityholders.
DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
As of the date of this prospectus, our certificate of incorporation authorizes us to issue up to 500,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.01 par value per share. The following summary describes the material terms and provisions affecting the rights of holders of our capital stock, which is qualified in its entirety by reference to our certificate of incorporation and our bylaws, in each case as amended.
As of December 31, 2023, there were 3,143,390 shares of common stock outstanding, no shares of preferred stock outstanding, and warrants to purchase 404,446 shares of common stock, options to purchase 315,552 shares of common stock, and restricted stock units for 75,000 shares of common stock were outstanding.
Common Stock
Our common stock is listed on the OTC Pink Marketplace under the symbol “ELOX.”
Voting rights. Each holder of our common stock is entitled to one vote for each share of common stock on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders, including the election of directors.
Dividend rights. Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any then outstanding preferred stock, holders of our common stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by our board of directors out of legally available funds.
Liquidation. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of our common stock will be entitled to share ratably in the net assets legally available for distribution to stockholders after the payment of all of our debts and other liabilities and the satisfaction of any liquidation preference granted to the holders of any then outstanding shares of preferred stock.
Rights and Preferences. Holders of our common stock have no preemptive, conversion, subscription or other rights, and there are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to our common stock. The rights, preferences and privileges of the holders of our common stock are subject to and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of shares of any series of our preferred stock that we may designate in the future. All outstanding shares of common stock are fully paid and nonassessable, and the shares of common stock to be issued under this prospectus, when they are paid for, will be fully paid and nonassessable.
Transfer Agent
The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC.
Dividend
Holders of common stock are entitled to receive proportionately any dividends as may be declared by our board of directors, subject to any preferential dividend rights of outstanding preferred stock. We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. We do not intend to pay cash dividends for the foreseeable future. We currently expect to retain all future earnings, if any, for use in the development, operation and expansion of our business. Any determination to pay cash dividends in the future will depend upon, among other things, our results of operations, plans for expansion, tax considerations, available net profits and reserves, limitations under law, financial condition, capital requirements and other factors that our board of directors considers to be relevant.
Preferred Stock
Our board of directors has the authority, without further action by our stockholders, to issue preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions thereof. These rights, preferences and privileges could include dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, liquidation preferences, sinking fund terms and the number of shares constituting any series or the designation of such series, any or all of which may be greater than the rights of common stock. The
issuance of our preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power of holders of common stock and the likelihood that such holders will receive dividend payments and payments upon liquidation. In addition, the issuance of preferred stock could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of control of our company or other corporate action.
Our board of directors will fix the designations, voting powers, preferences and rights of the preferred stock of each series we issue under this prospectus, as well as the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, in the certificate of designation relating to that series. We will file as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, or will incorporate by reference from reports that we file with the SEC, the form of any certificate of designation that contains the terms of the series of preferred stock we are offering. We will describe in the applicable prospectus supplement the terms of the series of preferred stock being offered, including, to the extent applicable:
•
the title and stated value;
•
the number of shares we are offering;
•
the liquidation preference per share;
•
the purchase price;
•
the dividend rate, period and payment date and method of calculation for dividends;
•
whether dividends will be cumulative or non-cumulative and, if cumulative, the date from which dividends will accumulate;
•
the procedures for any auction and remarketing, if applicable;
•
the provisions for a sinking fund, if applicable;
•
the provisions for redemption or repurchase, if applicable, and any restrictions on our ability to exercise those redemption and repurchase rights;
•
any listing of the preferred stock on any securities exchange or market;
•
whether the preferred stock will be convertible into our common stock or other equity securities, and, if applicable, the conversion price, or how it will be calculated, and the conversion period;
•
whether the preferred stock will be exchangeable into debt securities, and, if applicable, the exchange price, or how it will be calculated, and the exchange period;
•
voting rights, if any;
•
preemptive rights, if any;
•
restrictions on transfer, sale or other assignment, if any;
•
whether interests in the preferred stock will be represented by depositary shares;
•
a discussion of material or special U.S. federal income tax considerations applicable to the preferred stock;
•
the relative ranking and preferences of the preferred stock as to dividend rights and rights if we liquidate, dissolve or wind up our affairs;
•
any limitations on the issuance of any class or series of preferred stock ranking senior to or on parity with the series of preferred stock as to dividend rights and rights if we liquidate, dissolve or wind up our affairs; and
•
any other specific terms, preferences, rights or limitations of, or restrictions on, the preferred stock.
The laws of the state of Delaware, the state of our incorporation, provide that the holders of preferred stock will have the right to vote separately as a class on any proposal involving fundamental changes in the rights of holders of such preferred stock. This right is in addition to any voting rights that may be provided for in the applicable certificate of designation.
If we issue and sell shares of preferred stock pursuant to this prospectus, the shares will be fully paid and nonassessable and will not have, or be subject to, any preemptive or similar rights. The issuance of
preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power, conversion or other rights of holders of common stock and reduce the likelihood that common stockholders will receive dividend payments and payments upon liquidation. Preferred stock could be issued quickly with terms designed to delay, deter or prevent a change in control of our company or make removal of management more difficult. Additionally, the issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of decreasing the market price of our common stock.
Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law
We are subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which prohibits a publicly-held Delaware corporation from engaging in any business combination with any interested stockholder for a period of three years after the date that such stockholder became an interested stockholder, with the following exceptions:
•
before such date, the board of directors of the corporation approved either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested holder;
•
upon completion of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction began, excluding for purposes of determining the voting stock outstanding (but not the outstanding voting stock owned by the interested stockholder) those shares owned (i) by persons who are directors and also officers and (ii) employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or
•
on or after such date, the business combination is approved by the board of directors and authorized at an annual or special meeting of the stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least 50% of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.
In general, Section 203 defines business combination to include the following:
•
any merger or consolidation involving the corporation and the interested stockholder;
•
any sale, transfer, pledge or other disposition of 10% or more of the assets of the corporation involving the interested stockholder;
•
subject to certain exceptions, any transaction that results in the issuance or transfer by the corporation of any stock of the corporation to the interested stockholder;
•
any transaction involving the corporation that has the effect of increasing the proportionate share of the stock or any class or series of the corporation beneficially owned by the interested stockholder; or
•
the receipt by the interested stockholder of the benefit of any loss, advances, guarantees, pledges or other financial benefits by or through the corporation.
In general, Section 203 defines an “interested stockholder” as an entity or person who, together with the person’s affiliates and associates, beneficially owns, or within three years prior to the time of determination of interested stockholder status did own, 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation.
2023 Warrants
On September 18, 2023, we entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “2023 Purchase Agreement”) with a certain institutional investor (the “2023 Purchaser”). The 2023 Purchase Agreement provided for the sale and issuance by us of an aggregate of: (i) 305,590 shares (the “2023 Shares”) of our common stock, (ii) a pre-funded warrant (the “2023 Pre-Funded Warrant”) to purchase up to 75,000 shares of common stock, and (iii) a private placement warrant (the “2023 Private Warrant”) to purchase up to 380,590 shares of common stock. The Shares, 2023 Pre-Funded Warrant and 2023 Private Warrant were sold on a combined basis for consideration equating to $5.255 for one Share and a 2023 Private Warrant to purchase one underlying share of common stock and $5.254 for a 2023 Pre-Funded Warrant to purchase one underlying share of common stock and a 2023 Private Warrant to purchase one underlying share of
common stock. The exercise price of the 2023 Pre-Funded Warrant is $0.001 per underlying share. The exercise price of the 2023 Private Warrant is $5.13 per underlying share.
2023 Pre-Funded Warrant
Duration and Exercise Price
The 2023 Pre-Funded Warrant has an initial exercise price of $0.001 per share. The 2023 Pre-Funded Warrant is immediately exercisable and may be exercised at any time until the 2023 Pre-Funded Warrant is exercised in full. The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise is subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits, reorganizations or similar events affecting our common stock and the exercise price.
Exercisability
The 2023 Pre-Funded Warrant is exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part, by delivering to us a duly executed exercise notice accompanied by payment in full for the number of shares of common stock purchased upon such exercise (except in the case of a cashless exercise as discussed below).
A holder (together with its affiliates) may not exercise any portion of the 2023 Pre-Funded Warrant to the extent that the holder would beneficially own more than 9.99% of the outstanding common stock immediately after exercise (the “2023 Pre-Funded Warrant Beneficial Ownership Limitation”), except that upon at least 61 days’ prior notice from the holder to us, the holder may increase the 2023 Pre-Funded Warrant Beneficial Ownership Limitation, provided that the 2023 Pre-Funded Warrant Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99%.
No fractional shares of common stock will be issued in connection with the exercise of a 2023 Pre-Funded Warrant. In lieu of fractional shares, we will pay the holder either an amount in cash equal to the fractional amount multiplied by the exercise price or round such fractional share to a whole share.
Cashless Exercise
In lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to us upon such exercise in payment of the aggregate exercise price, the holder may, in its sole discretion, elect instead to receive upon such exercise (either in whole or in part) the net number of shares of common stock determined according to a formula set forth in the 2023 Pre-Funded Warrant.
Fundamental Transaction
In the event of a fundamental transaction, as described in the 2023 Pre-Funded Warrant and generally including any reorganization, recapitalization or reclassification of our common stock, the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of our properties or assets, our consolidation or merger with or into another person, the acquisition of more than 50% of our outstanding voting securities, the holders of the 2023 Pre-Funded Warrant will be entitled to receive upon exercise of the 2023 Pre-Funded Warrant the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that the holders would have received had they exercised the 2023 Pre-Funded Warrant immediately prior to such fundamental transaction.
Transferability
Subject to applicable laws, a 2023 Pre-Funded Warrant may be transferred at the option of the holder upon surrender of the 2023 Pre-Funded Warrant to us together with the appropriate instruments of transfer.
Exchange Listing
We do not intend to list the 2023 Pre-Funded Warrant on any securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system.
Rights as a Stockholder
Except as otherwise provided in the 2023 Pre-Funded Warrant or by virtue of such holder’s ownership of common stock, the holders of the 2023 Pre-Funded Warrant do not have the rights or privileges of holders of our common stock, including any voting rights, until they exercise the 2023 Pre-Funded Warrant.
2023 Private Warrant
Duration, Exercise Price and Anti-Dilutive Rights
The 2023 Private Warrant has an exercise price of $5.13 per share and is immediately exercisable upon issuance. The 2023 Private Warrant will expire five and one-half years following the issuance of the 2023 Private Warrant. The 2023 Private Warrant contains standard adjustments to the exercise price including for stock splits, stock dividend, rights offerings and pro rata distributions.
Exercisability
The 2023 Private Warrant is immediately exercisable, at the option of each holder and until the expiration date, in whole or in part, by delivering to us a duly executed exercise notice accompanied by payment in full for the number of purchased upon such exercise (except in the case of a cashless exercise as discussed below).
Exercise Limitation
A holder (together with its affiliates) may not exercise any portion of the 2023 Private Warrant to the extent that the holder would beneficially own more than 4.99% of the outstanding common stock immediately after exercise (the “2023 Private Warrant Beneficial Ownership Limitation”), except that upon at least 61 days’ prior notice from the holder to us, the holder may increase the 2023 Private Warrant Beneficial Ownership Limitation, provided that the 2023 Private Warrant Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99%.
No fractional shares of common stock will be issued in connection with the exercise of a 2023 Private Warrant. In lieu of fractional shares, we will pay the holder either an amount in cash equal to the fractional amount multiplied by the exercise price or round such fractional share to a whole share.
Cashless Exercise
In lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to us upon such exercise in payment of the aggregate exercise price, the holder may, in the event the shares underlying the 2023 Private Warrant, or the 2023 Private Warrant Shares, are not registered under the Securities Act, elect instead to receive upon such exercise (either in whole or in part) the net number of shares of common stock determined according to a formula set forth in the 2023 Private Warrant.
Fundamental Transaction
In the event of a fundamental transaction, as described in the 2023 Private Warrant and generally including any reorganization, recapitalization or reclassification of our common stock, the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of our properties or assets, our consolidation or merger with or into another person, the acquisition of more than 50% of our outstanding voting securities, the holders of the 2023 Private Warrant will be entitled to receive upon exercise of the 2023 Private Warrant the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that the holders would have received had they exercised the 2023 Private Warrant immediately prior to such fundamental transaction. In addition, the holders of the 2023 Private Warrant have, at the option of the applicable holder, the right to receive from us or a successor entity the same type or form of consideration (and in the same proportion) that is being offered and paid to the holders of our common stock in the fundamental transaction in the amount of the Black Scholes value (as described in the 2023 Private Warrant) of the unexercised portion of the 2023 Private Warrant on the date of the consummation of the fundamental transaction.
Transferability
Subject to applicable laws, a 2023 Private Warrant may be transferred at the option of the holder upon surrender of the 2023 Private Warrant to us together with the appropriate instruments of transfer.
Exchange Listing
We do not intend to list the 2023 Private Warrant on any securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system.
Rights as a Stockholder
Except as otherwise provided in the 2023 Private Warrant or by virtue of such holder’s ownership of common stock, the holders of the 2023 Private Warrant do not have the rights or privileges of holders of our common stock, including any voting rights, until they exercise the 2023 Private Warrant.
2024 Warrants
On January 9, 2024, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with the purchaser named therein, pursuant to which we agreed to issue securities to such purchaser in a private placement in consideration for such purchaser’s assumption of certain of our debt obligations. In the private placement, the purchaser was issued shares (the “2024 Shares”), of our common stock, a pre-funded warrant (the “2024 Pre-Funded Warrant) to purchase shares of our common stock, with an exercise price of $0.001 per underlying share, and a warrant (the “2024 Purchase Warrant”) to purchase shares of our common stock, with an exercise price of $1.18 per underlying share. Accordingly, we issued 157,138 2024 Shares, a 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant to purchase 471,508 shares of our common stock (the “2024 Pre-Funded Warrant Shares”), and a 2024 Purchase Warrant to purchase 150,000 shares of our common stock (the “2024 Purchase Warrant Shares” and, together with the 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant Shares, the “2024 Warrant Shares”), upon the closing of the private placement.
Under the securities purchase agreement, if at any time during the fifteen (15) month period commencing on January 9, 2024, we sell additional shares of common stock or any security convertible into shares of common stock at a price per share of less than $0.975 (other than an issuance pursuant to our benefit plans, pursuant to the terms of any currently existing obligation or convertible security, option or warrant or in connection with a merger, business combination or other business development transaction) (a “Qualifying Dilutive Issuance”), then the purchaser shall be entitled to receive, at no cost to the purchaser, that number of shares of common stock or, at purchaser’s sole election, a pre-funded warrant having substantially the same terms as the 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant (or a combination of shares of common stock and a pre-funded warrant) exercisable for such number of shares of common stock as would result in the percentage of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock on a fully diluted basis that is beneficially owned by purchaser immediately following such Qualifying Dilutive Issuance being equal to such beneficial ownership immediately preceding such Qualifying Dilutive Issuance.
Additionally, under the securities purchase agreement, to the extent we issue any equity securities or securities convertible into equity during the period commencing January 9, 2024 and ending January 9, 2026, the purchaser or its successors shall have the right to purchase up to 19.9% of the offered securities on terms no less favorable than those terms offered to any other investor participating in such issuance.
2024 Pre-Funded Warrant
The 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant is exercisable until exercised in full. The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant may be adjusted in certain circumstances, including in the event of a stock dividend, a forward or reverse split of our shares of common stock, and certain other events. However, the 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant will not be adjusted for issuances of common stock at prices below its exercise price.
We issued the 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant in certificated form. A holder of a 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant certificate may exercise such 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant upon delivery to us of a duly executed PDF copy submitted by electronic mail of the exercise form annexed to the 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant on or prior to the applicable expiration date, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price for the 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant Shares being exercised within the time specified under the terms of the 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant.
Subject to limited exceptions, a holder of the 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant will not have the right to exercise any portion of its 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant if the holder (together with such holder’s affiliates, and any persons acting as a group together with such holder or any of such holder’s affiliates) would beneficially own a number of shares of our common stock in excess of 4.9% of the shares of our common stock then outstanding after giving effect to such exercise (the “2024 Warrant Beneficial Ownership Limitation”); provided, however, that upon notice to us, the holder may increase or decrease the 2024
Warrant Beneficial Ownership Limitation, provided that in no event shall the 2024 Warrant Beneficial Ownership Limitation exceed 9.9% and any increase in the 2024 Warrant Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until 61 days following notice of such increase from the holder to us.
The holder of the 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant must pay the exercise price in cash upon exercise of the 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant, unless such holder is utilizing the cashless exercise provision of the 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant. The 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant may be exercised (in the sole discretion of the holder, subject to certain exceptions), in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the holder of such 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant shall be entitled to receive that number of warrant shares determined according to the following formula:
[(A-B)*(X)]
(A)
where:
(A) = as applicable: (i) the VWAP (as defined below) on the Trading Day (as defined below) immediately preceding the date of the applicable exercise notice if such exercise notice is (1) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) of the 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant on a day that is not a Trading Day or (2) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) of the 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant on a Trading Day prior to the opening of “regular trading hours” (as defined in Rule 600(b) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, (ii) at the option of the holder, either (y) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable exercise notice or (z) the Bid Price (as defined in the 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant) of the common stock on the principal Trading Market (as defined below) as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (“Bloomberg”), as of the time of the holder’s execution of the applicable exercise notice if such exercise notice is executed during “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day and is delivered within two (2) hours thereafter (including until two (2) hours after the close of “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day) pursuant to Section 2(a) of the 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant or (iii) the VWAP on the date of the applicable exercise notice if the date of such exercise notice is a Trading Day and such exercise notice is both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) of the 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant after the close of “regular trading hours” on such Trading Day;
(B) = the exercise price then in effect; and
(X) = the number of 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of the 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant in accordance with the terms of the 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant if such exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise.
As used above, the “VWAP” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the our common stock is then listed or quoted on the New York Stock Exchange, the NYSE MKT, the Nasdaq Global Select Market, the Nasdaq Global Market, the Nasdaq Capital Market or the OTC Bulletin Board (collectively, a “Trading Market”), the daily volume weighted average price of the common stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the Trading Market on which the common stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a “Trading Day” from 9:30 a.m., New York time, to 4:02 p.m., New York time), (b) if the OTCQB Venture Market (the “OTCQB”) or the OTCQX Best Market (the “OTCQX”), is not a Trading Market, the volume weighted average price of the common stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX, as applicable, (c) if the common stock is not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the common stock are then reported on the Pink Open Market (the “Pink Market”), operated by the OTC Markets, Inc. (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per share of the common stock so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of common stock as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the holders of a majority in interest of the 2024 Shares and the 2024 Warrant Shares then outstanding and reasonably acceptable to us, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by us.
We do not intend to apply for listing of the 2024 Pre-Funded Warrant on any securities exchange or other trading system.
2024 Purchase Warrant
The 2024 Purchase Warrant has an exercise price of $1.18 per share and is exercisable until 5:00 p.m., New York time, on January 9, 2029. The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the 2024 Purchase Warrant may be adjusted in certain circumstances, including in the event of a stock dividend, a forward or reverse split of our shares of common stock, and certain other events. However, the 2024 Purchase Warrant will not be adjusted for issuances of common stock at prices below its exercise price.
We issued the 2024 Purchase Warrant in certificated form. A holder of a 2024 Purchase Warrant certificate may exercise such 2024 Purchase Warrant upon delivery to us of a duly executed PDF copy submitted by electronic mail of the exercise form annexed to the 2024 Purchase Warrant on or prior to the applicable expiration date, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price for the 2024 Purchase Warrant Shares being exercised within the time specified under the terms of the 2024 Purchase Warrant.
Subject to limited exceptions, a holder of the 2024 Purchase Warrant will not have the right to exercise any portion of its 2024 Purchase Warrant if the holder (together with such holder’s affiliates, and any persons acting as a group together with such holder or any of such holder’s affiliates) would beneficially own a number of shares of our common stock in excess of the 2024 Warrant Beneficial Ownership Limitation; provided, however, that upon notice to us, the holder may increase or decrease the 2024 Warrant Beneficial Ownership Limitation, provided that in no event shall the 2024 Warrant Beneficial Ownership Limitation exceed 9.9% and any increase in the 2024 Warrant Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until 61 days following notice of such increase from the holder to us.
The holder of the 2024 Purchase Warrant must pay the exercise price in cash upon exercise of the 2024 Purchase Warrant, unless such holder is utilizing the cashless exercise provision of the 2024 Purchase Warrant. The 2024 Purchase Warrant may be exercised (in the sole discretion of the holder, subject to certain exceptions), in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the holder of such 2024 Purchase Warrant shall be entitled to receive that number of warrant shares determined according to the following formula:
[(A-B)*(X)]
(A)
where:
(A) = as applicable: (i) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable exercise notice if such exercise notice is (1) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) of the 2024 Purchase Warrant on a day that is not a Trading Day or (2) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) of the 2024 Purchase Warrant on a Trading Day prior to the opening of “regular trading hours” (as defined in Rule 600(b) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, (ii) at the option of the holder, either (y) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable exercise notice or (z) the Bid Price of the common stock on the principal Trading Market as reported by Bloomberg, as of the time of the holder’s execution of the applicable exercise notice if such exercise notice is executed during “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day and is delivered within two (2) hours thereafter (including until two (2) hours after the close of “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day) pursuant to Section 2(a) of the 2024 Purchase Warrant or (iii) the VWAP on the date of the applicable exercise notice if the date of such exercise notice is a Trading Day and such exercise notice is both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) of the 2024 Purchase Warrant after the close of “regular trading hours” on such Trading Day;
(B) = the exercise price then in effect; and
(X) = the number of 2024 Purchase Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of the 2024 Purchase Warrant in accordance with the terms of the 2024 Purchase Warrant if such exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise.
We do not intend to apply for listing of the 2024 Purchase Warrant on any securities exchange or other trading system.
2024 Private Placement Registration Rights
We have agreed to prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement by no later than January 24, 2024 covering the public resale pursuant to the Securities Act of certain shares of our common stock issued, and certain shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of the 2024 Warrants issued, in each case, pursuant to a securities purchase agreement dated January 9, 2024, and have further agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to have such registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but in any event no later than February 8, 2024, or March 9, 2024 if the SEC reviews the registration statement. This registration statement on Form S-3 is being filed with the SEC in accordance with the aforementioned obligations.
2024 Private Placement Expenses and Indemnification
Ordinarily, other than underwriting discounts (it being understood that the selling securityholders shall not be deemed to be underwriters solely as a result of their participation in this offering) and commissions, we will be required to pay all expenses incurred by us related to any registration effected pursuant to the exercise of these registration rights. These expenses may include all registration and filing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of our counsel, reasonable fees and disbursements of a counsel for the selling securityholders and blue sky fees and expenses. Additionally, we have agreed to indemnify selling securityholders for damages, and any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred, arising from or based upon any untrue statement of a material fact contained in any registration statement, an omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in any registration statement or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or any violation or alleged violation by the indemnifying party of securities laws, subject to certain exceptions.
Anti-takeover Provisions
Preferred Stock
Under the terms of our certificate of incorporation, our board of directors has the authority, without further action by our stockholders, to issue preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions thereof. These rights, preferences and privileges could include dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, liquidation preferences, sinking fund terms and the number of shares constituting any series or the designation of such series, any or all of which may be greater than the rights of common stock. The issuance of our preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power of holders of common stock and the likelihood that such holders will receive dividend payments and payments upon liquidation. In addition, the issuance of preferred stock could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of control of our company or other corporate action.
Requirements for Advance Notification of Stockholder Nominations and Proposals
Our bylaws establish advance notice procedures with respect to stockholder proposals to be brought before a stockholder meeting and the nomination of candidates for election as directors, other than nominations made by or at the direction of our board of directors or a committee of our board of directors.
Stockholders not Entitled to Cumulative Voting
Our certificate of incorporation does not permit stockholders to cumulate their votes in the election of directors. Accordingly, the holders of a majority of the shares of our common stock entitled to vote in any election of directors will be able to elect all of the directors standing for election, if they choose, other than any directors that holders of our convertible preferred stock may be entitled to elect.
Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law
We are subject to Section 203 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”), which prohibits persons deemed to be “interested stockholders” from engaging in a “business combination” with a publicly held Delaware corporation for three years following the date these persons become interested stockholders unless the business combination is, or the transaction in which the person became an interested
stockholder was, approved in a prescribed manner or another prescribed exception applies. Generally, an “interested stockholder” is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns, or within three years prior to the determination of interested stockholder status did own, 15% or more of a corporation’s voting stock. Generally, a “business combination” includes a merger, asset or stock sale, or other transaction resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder. The existence of this provision may have an anti-takeover effect with respect to transactions not approved in advance by our board of directors.
SELLING SECURITYHOLDERS
This prospectus relates to the possible resale by certain of the selling securityholders from time to time of up to an aggregate of 778,646 shares of common stock of the Company, $0.01 par value per share, or Common Stock. The term “selling securityholders” includes donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors in interest selling securities received after the date of this prospectus from a selling securityholder as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other transfer.
On January 9, 2024, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, or the Purchase Agreement, with the selling securityholders, pursuant to which we sold in a private placement an aggregate of (i) 157,138 shares of Common Stock, or the Shares; (ii) a pre-funded warrant, or the Pre-Funded Warrant, to purchase an aggregate of 471,508 shares of Common Stock, or the Pre-Funded Warrant Shares, and (iii) a warrant, or the Purchase Warrant, to purchase an aggregate of 150,000 shares of Common Stock, or the Warrant Shares. The Pre-Funded Warrant is exercisable immediately, until it is exercised in full, subject to the beneficial ownership limitation (as described below), and has an exercise price of $0.001 per underlying Pre-Funded Warrant Share, with an aggregate exercise price of $41.508. The Purchase Warrant is exercisable immediately, subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, until five years following the date of issuance, and has an exercise price of $1.18 per underlying Warrant Share, with an aggregate exercise price of $177,000.00. This prospectus relates to the possible resale by the purchaser under the Purchase Agreement of the Shares sold under the Purchase Agreement, the Pre-Funded Warrant Shares underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants sold under the Purchase Agreement and the Warrant Shares underlying the Purchase Warrants sold under the Purchase Agreement.
The following table sets forth information concerning the shares of Common Stock that may be offered from time to time by each selling securityholder. The number of shares beneficially owned by each selling securityholder is determined under rules issued by the SEC. Under these rules, beneficial ownership includes any shares as to which the selling securityholder has sole or shared voting power or investment power. Percentage ownership is based on 3,143,390 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of December 31, 2023. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a selling securityholder and their percentage ownership, shares of Common Stock subject to options, warrants or other rights held by such selling securityholder that are currently exercisable or will become exercisable within 60 days of December 31, 2023 are considered outstanding, although these shares are not considered outstanding for purposes of computing the percentage ownership of any other selling securityholder. For purposes of this table, we have assumed that the selling securityholders will have sold all of the securities covered by this prospectus upon the completion of the offering. Each of the selling securityholders listed has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares beneficially owned by the selling securityholder unless noted otherwise.
The information in the following table has been provided to us by or on behalf of the selling securityholders and the selling securityholders may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of all or a portion of their securities after the date on which they provided us with information regarding their securities. A selling securityholder may sell all, some or none of its securities in this offering. See “Plan of Distribution.”

(1)
The securities are directly held by SD MF 4 LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“SD MF”). The securities may be deemed to be beneficially owned by Daniel Simon by virtue of his position as managing member of the Delaware limited liability company that itself serves as the managing member of SD MF. The address of SD MF is PO Box 49422, Charlotte, NC 28277.
(2)
Consists of 157,038 shares of Common Stock and 621,508 shares of Common Stock underlying warrants directly held by SD MF. The warrants are subject to a beneficial ownership limitation of 4.9%, which such limitation restricts the selling securityholder from exercising that portion of the warrants that would result in the selling securityholder and its affiliates owning, after exercise, a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of the beneficial ownership limitation. The amounts and percentages in the table do not give effect to the beneficial ownership limitations.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The selling securityholders and any of their pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees or other successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of their shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These dispositions may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices. The selling securityholders may use one or more of the following methods when disposing of the shares or interests therein:
•
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;
•
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
•
through brokers, dealers or underwriters that may act solely as agents;
•
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
•
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
•
privately negotiated transactions;
•
through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions entered into after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;
•
broker-dealers may agree with the selling securityholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
•
a combination of any such methods of disposition; and
•
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
The selling securityholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 or Rule 904 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or Securities Act, if available, or Section 4(a)(1) under the Securities Act, rather than under this prospectus.
Broker-dealers engaged by the selling securityholders may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling securityholders (or, if any broker- dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. The selling securityholders do not expect these commissions and discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved.
The selling securityholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell shares of common stock from time to time under this prospectus, or under a supplement or amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of selling securityholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling securityholders under this prospectus.
Upon being notified in writing by a selling securityholder that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of common stock through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, we will file a supplement to this prospectus, if required, pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, disclosing (i) the name of each such selling securityholder and of the participating broker-dealer(s), (ii) the number of shares involved, (iii) the price at which such shares of common stock were sold, (iv) the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to such broker-dealer(s), where applicable, (v) that such broker-dealer(s) did not conduct any investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and (vi) other facts material to the transaction. In addition, upon being notified in writing by a selling securityholder that a donee or pledgee intends to sell more than 500 shares of common stock, we will file a supplement to this prospectus if then required in accordance with applicable securities law.
The selling securityholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.
In connection with the sale of the shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock, the selling securityholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling securityholders may also sell shares of common stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling securityholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).
The selling securityholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any profits realized by such selling securityholders or compensation received by such broker-dealers or agents may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. The maximum commission or discount to be received by any member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) or independent broker-dealer will not be greater than 8% of the initial gross proceeds from the sale of any security being sold.
We have advised the selling securityholders that they are required to comply with Regulation M promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, during such time as they may be engaged in a distribution of the shares. The foregoing may affect the marketability of the common stock.
The aggregate proceeds to the selling securityholders from the sale of the common stock offered by them will be the purchase price of the common stock less discounts or commissions, if any. Each of the selling securityholders reserves the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of common stock to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from this offering.
We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares. We have agreed to indemnify the selling securityholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act or otherwise.
We have agreed with the selling securityholders to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part effective until the earlier of (a) such time as all of the shares covered by this prospectus have been disposed of pursuant to and in accordance with the registration statement and (b) such time as none of the shares covered by this prospectus constitute “registrable securities”, as such term is defined in the securities purchase agreement by and among us and the selling securityholders.

Item 15.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Subsection (a) of Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, or the DGCL, empowers a corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party or who is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the person’s conduct was unlawful.
Subsection (b) of Section 145 empowers a corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that the person acted in any of the capacities set forth above, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.
Section 145 further provides that to the extent a director or officer of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 145, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith; that indemnification provided for by Section 145 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the indemnified party may be entitled; and the indemnification provided for by Section 145 shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of such person’s heirs, executors and administrators. Section 145 also empowers the corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liabilities under Section 145.
Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL provides that a corporation’s certificate of incorporation may contain a provision eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, provided that such provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director (i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the DGCL, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
Any underwriting agreement or distribution agreement that the registrant enters into with any underwriters or agents involved in the offering or sale of any securities registered hereby may require such underwriters or dealers to indemnify the registrant, some or all of its directors and officers and its controlling persons, if any, for specified liabilities, which may include liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Our bylaws provide that we will indemnify each person who was or is a party or threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of us) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was, or has agreed to become, a director or officer or is or was serving, or has agreed to serve, at our request, as a director, officer, partner, employee or trustee of, or in a similar capacity with, another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (all such persons being referred to as an “Indemnitee”), or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in such capacity, against all expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees), liabilities, losses, judgments, fines (including, without limitation, excise taxes and penalties arising under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974), and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with such action, suit or proceeding and any appeal therefrom, if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, our best interests, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of us, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. Our bylaws provide that we will indemnify any Indemnitee who was or is a party to or threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of us to procure a judgment in our favor by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was, or has agreed to become, a director or officer, or is or was serving, or has agreed to serve, at our request, as a director, officer, partner, employee or trustee of, or in a similar capacity with, another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including, without limitation, any employee benefit plan), or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in such capacity, against all expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with such action, suit or proceeding and any appeal therefrom, if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, our best interests, except that no indemnification shall be made with respect to any claim, issue or matter as to which Indemnitee shall have been adjudged to be liable to us, unless, and only to the extent, that the Court of Chancery of Delaware or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of such liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) which the Court of Chancery of Delaware or such other court shall deem proper.
We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors and officers. These indemnification agreements may require us, among other things, to indemnify our directors and officers for some expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by a director or officer in any action or proceeding arising out of his or her service as one of our directors or officers, or any of our subsidiaries or any other company or enterprise to which the person provides services at our request.
The indemnification rights set forth above shall not be exclusive of any other right which an indemnified person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, our certificate of incorporation, our bylaws, any agreement, any vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.
We maintain a general liability insurance policy that covers certain liabilities of directors and officers of our corporation arising out of claims based on acts or omissions in their capacities as directors or officers.

Item 17.
Undertakings
(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii), and (a)(1)(iii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is a part of the registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:
(A) Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and
(B) Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or
modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.
(6) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities:
The undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;
(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
(iv) Any other communications that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.
(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-3 and has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Watertown, Commonwealth of Massachusetts, on January 24, 2024.

ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”),
AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT
TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE
WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THIS SECURITY AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THIS SECURITY MAY BE PLEDGED IN

PRE-FUNDED COMMON
STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
Eloxx
Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
|
| Warrant Shares:
471,508 | Issue
Date: January 9, 2024 |
Initial Exercise Date: January 9, 2024
THIS PRE-FUNDED COMMON STOCK
PURCHASE WARRANT (the “Warrant”) certifies that, for value received, SD MF 4 LLC or its assigns (the “Holder”)
is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after
the date set forth above (the “Initial Exercise Date”) and until this Warrant is exercised in full (the “Termination
Date”), to subscribe for and purchase from Eloxx Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”),
up to 471,508 shares (as subject to adjustment hereunder, the “Warrant Shares”) of the Company’s Common Stock.
The purchase price of one share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be equal to the Exercise Price, as defined in Section 2(b).
Section
1. Definitions. Capitalized
terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase
Agreement”), dated January 9, 2024, among the Company and the Holder.
Section 2. Exercise.
(a) Exercise of
Warrant. Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on
or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Termination Date by delivery to the Company of a duly executed PDF copy
submitted by e-mail (or e-mail attachment) of the Notice of Exercise in the form annexed hereto (the “Notice of
Exercise”). Within the earlier of (i) two (2) Trading Days and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising
the Standard Settlement Period (as defined in Section 2(d)(i) herein) following the date of exercise as aforesaid, the
Holder shall deliver the aggregate Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise by wire
transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank unless the cashless exercise procedure specified in
Section 2(c) below is specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise. No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall
be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise be required.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the
Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in
which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation as soon as reasonably practicable following the
date on which the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of
a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of
Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Holder and the
Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall
deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise within one (1) Trading Day of receipt of such notice. The Holder and any
assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the
purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given
time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
(b) Exercise Price.
The aggregate exercise price of this Warrant, except for a nominal exercise price of $0.01 per Warrant Share, was pre-funded to the Company
on or prior to the Initial Exercise Date and, consequently, no additional consideration (other than the nominal exercise price of $0.01
per Warrant Share) shall be required to be paid by the Holder to any Person to effect any exercise of this Warrant. The Holder shall not
be entitled to the return or refund of all, or any portion, of such pre-paid aggregate exercise price under any circumstance or for any
reason whatsoever, including in the event this Warrant shall not have been exercised prior to the Termination Date. The remaining unpaid
exercise price per share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be $0.01, subject to adjustment hereunder (the “Exercise Price”).
(c) Cashless Exercise. If at the time
of exercise hereof there is no effective registration statement registering, or the prospectus contained therein is not available for
the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder, then this Warrant may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of
a “cashless exercise” in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained
by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:
(A) = as applicable: (i) the
VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is (1) both
executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof on a day that is not a Trading Day or (2) both executed and delivered
pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof on a Trading Day prior to the opening of “regular trading hours” (as defined in
Rule 600(b) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, (ii) at the option of
the Holder, either (y) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise or (z) the
Bid Price of the Common Stock on the principal Trading Market as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (“Bloomberg”) as of the
time of the Holder’s execution of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is executed during “regular
trading hours” on a Trading Day and is delivered within two (2) hours thereafter (including until two (2) hours after
the close of “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day) pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof or (iii) the VWAP on
the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if the date of such Notice of Exercise is a Trading Day and such Notice of Exercise is both
executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof after the close of “regular trading hours” on such Trading
Day;
(B) = the Exercise Price
of this Warrant, as adjusted hereunder; and
(X) = the number of Warrant Shares
that would be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant if such exercise were by means of a
cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise.
“Bid
Price” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the
Common Stock is then listed or quoted on a Trading Market, the bid price of the Common Stock for the time in question (or the nearest
preceding date) on the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a Trading
Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if OTCQB or OTCQX is not a Trading Market,
the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if
the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported on The
Pink Open Market (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per
share of the Common Stock so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined
by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Holders of a majority in interest of the Securities then outstanding and reasonably
acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.
“VWAP”
means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Common Stock is then listed
or quoted on a Trading Market, the daily volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date)
on the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New
York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if the OTCQB Venture Market (“OTCQB”) or the OTCQX
Best Market (“OTCQX”) is not a Trading Market, the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date
(or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading
on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported on the Pink Open Market (“Pink Market”) operated
by the OTC Markets, Inc. (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid
price per share of the Common Stock so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined
by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Holders of a majority in interest of the Securities then outstanding and reasonably
acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.
If Warrant Shares are issued
in such a cashless exercise, the parties acknowledge and agree that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act,
the holding period of the Warrant Shares being issued may be tacked on to the holding period of this Warrant. The Company agrees not to
take any position contrary to this Section 2(c).
(d) Mechanics of Exercise.
i. Delivery of Warrant
Shares Upon Exercise. The Company shall cause the Warrant Shares purchased hereunder to be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the
Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company through
its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and either
(A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares
by the Holder or (B) the Warrant Shares are eligible for resale by the Holder without volume or manner-of-sale limitations pursuant
to Rule 144 (assuming cashless exercise of the Warrants) and, in each case, in the reasonable opinion of the Company, the Securities
are no longer required to bear a legend, and otherwise by physical delivery of a certificate, registered in the Company’s share
register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such
exercise to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that is the earliest of (i) two (2) Trading
Days after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise, and of the aggregate Exercise Price (if applicable), and (ii) the
number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise and of the
aggregate Exercise Price (if applicable) (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”). Upon delivery of the Notice
of Exercise, and of the aggregate Exercise Price (if applicable), the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become
the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery
of the Warrant Shares, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received
by the Warrant Share Delivery Date. The Company agrees to maintain a transfer agent that is a participant in the FAST program so long
as this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable. As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means the standard
settlement period, expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary Trading Market with respect to the Common Stock
as in effect on the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Notice(s) of Exercise
delivered on or prior to 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Trading Day immediately prior to the Initial Exercise Date, which
may be delivered at any time after the time of execution of the Purchase Agreement, the Company agrees to deliver the Warrant Shares subject
to such notice(s) by 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Initial Exercise Date and the Initial Exercise Date shall be the
Warrant Share Delivery Date for purposes hereunder, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a
cashless exercise) is received by such Warrant Share Delivery Date.
ii. Delivery of New Warrants
Upon Exercise. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request of a Holder and upon surrender
of this Warrant certificate, at the time of delivery of the Warrant Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights
of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be
identical with this Warrant.
iii. Rescission Rights.
If the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 2(d)(i) by
the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.
v. No Fractional Shares
or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. As to any
fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall, at its election, either
pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Exercise Price or round
up to the next whole share.
vi. Charges, Taxes and
Expenses. Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental
expense in respect of the issuance of such Warrant Shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such Warrant
Shares shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; provided, however,
that in the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for
exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder and the Company may require, as
a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto. The Company shall pay all
Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Exercise and all fees to the Depository Trust Company (or another
established clearing corporation performing similar functions) required for same-day electronic delivery of the Warrant Shares.
vii. Closing of Books.
The Company will not close its stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant, pursuant
to the terms hereof.
(e) Holder’s
Exercise Limitations. The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise
any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 2 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise
as set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any other Persons acting
as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates (such Persons, “Attribution Parties”)),
would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the
number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the number
of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude
the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant
beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised
or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other Common Stock Equivalents) subject
to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its
Affiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 2(e), beneficial ownership
shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder,
it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of
the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that
the limitation contained in this Section 2(e) applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation
to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is
exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be the Holder’s
determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates
and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation,
and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any
group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 2(e), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common
Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (A) the Company’s most recent
periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or
(C) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding.
Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within one (1) Trading Day confirm orally and in writing to the Holder
the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined
after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its Affiliates
or Attribution Parties since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The “Beneficial
Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.9% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect
to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Holder, upon notice to the Company, may increase
or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 2(e), provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation
in no event exceeds 9.9% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares
of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant held by the Holder and the provisions of this Section 2(e) shall continue to apply.
Any increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered
to the Company. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with
the terms of this Section 2(e) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with
the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give
effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.
Section 3.
Certain Adjustments.
(a) Stock Dividends
and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution
or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of Common Stock (which,
for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company upon exercise of this Warrant), (ii) subdivides
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding
shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues by reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares
of capital stock of the Company, then in each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be
the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator
shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the number of shares issuable upon exercise
of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant shall remain unchanged. Any adjustment
made pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders
entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision,
combination or re-classification.
(c) Pro Rata Distributions.
During such time as this Warrant is outstanding, if the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets
(or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of shares of Common Stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation,
any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement,
scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after the issuance of this Warrant,
then, in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have
participated therein if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without
regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the
date of which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares
of Common Stock are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution (provided, however, that to the extent that
the Holder's right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then
the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (or in the beneficial ownership of any shares of Common
Stock as a result of such Distribution to such extent) and the portion of such Distribution shall be held in abeyance for the benefit
of the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).
(d) Fundamental Transaction.
If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects
any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company (or any Subsidiary), directly or indirectly,
effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Company in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer
(whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to sell, tender or exchange
their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or more of the outstanding Common Stock
or 50% or more of the voting power of the common equity of the Company, (iv) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more
related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange
pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, or (v) the
Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other business
combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off, merger or scheme of arrangement) with another
Person or group of Persons whereby such other Person or group acquires 50% or more of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or 50% or
more of the voting power of the common equity of the Company (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent
exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise
immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the option of the Holder (without regard to any limitation in
Section 2(e) on the exercise of this Warrant), the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation
or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”)
receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable
immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation in Section 2(e) on the exercise of this
Warrant). For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such
Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental
Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the
relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities,
cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration
it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. The Company shall cause any successor entity in
a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all
of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3(d) pursuant
to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder (without unreasonable delay)
prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the Holder, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Warrant a security
of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant which is exercisable
for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the shares of Common
Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) prior
to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an exercise price which applies the exercise price hereunder to such shares of capital stock
(but taking into account the relative value of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such
shares of capital stock, such number of shares of capital stock and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting the economic
value of this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in
form and substance to the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall be added to the
term “Company” under this Warrant (so that from and after the occurrence or consummation of such Fundamental Transaction,
each and every provision of this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead
to each of the Company and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally), and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities,
jointly and severally with the Company, may exercise every right and power of the Company prior thereto and the Successor Entity or Successor
Entities shall assume all of the obligations of the Company prior thereto under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents with
the same effect as if the Company and such Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally, had been named as the Company
herein. For the avoidance of doubt, the Holder shall be entitled to the benefits of the provisions of this Section 3(d) regardless
of (i) whether the Company has sufficient authorized shares of Common Stock for the issuance of Warrant Shares and/or (ii) whether
a Fundamental Transaction occurs prior to the Initial Exercise Date.
(e) Calculations.
All calculations under this Section 3 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For
purposes of this Section 3, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be
the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.
(f) Notice to Holder.
i. Adjustment to Exercise
Price. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 3, the Company shall promptly deliver
to the Holder by email a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and any resulting adjustment to the number of Warrant
Shares and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.
ii. Notice to Allow Exercise
by Holder. If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Common Stock, (B) the
Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock, (C) the Company shall authorize
the granting to all holders of the Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class
or of any rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of
the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Company (or any of its Subsidiaries) is a party, any sale or transfer of all
or substantially all of its assets, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash
or property, or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs
of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be delivered by email to the Holder at its last email address as it shall
appear upon the Warrant Register of the Company, at least 20 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter
specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption,
rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to
such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification,
consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected
that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other
property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; provided that the failure to
deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to
be specified in such notice. To the extent that any notice provided in this Warrant constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information
regarding the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a
Current Report on Form 8-K. The Holder shall remain entitled to exercise this Warrant during the period commencing on the date of
such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein.
Section 4. Transfer
of Warrant.
(a) Transferability.
Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws and the conditions set forth in Section 4(d) hereof and to the provisions
of Section 4.1 of the Purchase Agreement, this Warrant and all rights hereunder (including, without limitation, any registration
rights) are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company or its designated
agent, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder or its
agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if
required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable,
and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing
the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company unless the Holder has assigned this Warrant in full,
in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company within three (3) Trading Days of the date on which the Holder
delivers an assignment form to the Company assigning this Warrant in full. The Warrant, if properly assigned in accordance herewith, may
be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued.
(b) New Warrants.
This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the Company, together
with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the Holder or its agent
or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section 4(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or combination, the
Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance
with such notice. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the Issue Date of this Warrant and shall be identical with
this Warrant except as to the number of Warrant Shares issuable pursuant thereto.
(c) Warrant Register.
The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the “Warrant Register”),
in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the
absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual
notice to the contrary.
(d) Representation
by the Holder. The Holder, by the acceptance hereof, represents and warrants that it is acquiring this Warrant and, upon any exercise
hereof, will acquire the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, for its own account and not with a view to or for distributing or
reselling such Warrant Shares or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law, except pursuant
to sales registered or exempted under the Securities Act.
Section 5. Miscellaneous.
(a) No Rights as Stockholder
Until Exercise; No Settlement in Cash. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as
a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 2(d)(i), except as expressly set forth in Section 3.
Without limiting any rights of a Holder to receive Warrant Shares on a “cashless exercise” pursuant to Section 2(c) or
to receive cash payments pursuant to Section 2(d)(i) and Section 2(d)(iv) herein, in no event shall the Company be
required to net cash settle an exercise of this Warrant.
(b) Loss, Theft,
Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory
to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case
of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of the Warrant, shall not include
the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make
and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.
(c) 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 Trading Day, then, such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Trading Day.
(d) Authorized Shares.
The Company covenants that, during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock
a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant.
The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the
duty of issuing the necessary Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all such
reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable
law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Trading Market upon which the Common Stock may be listed. The Company covenants that
all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of the
purchase rights represented by this Warrant and payment for such Warrant Shares in accordance herewith, be duly authorized, validly issued,
fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by the Company in respect of the issue thereof (other
than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).
Except and to the extent as
waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate of
incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any
other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times
in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to
protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company
will (i) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior
to such increase in par value, (ii) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly
and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant and (iii) use commercially reasonable
efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as
may be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.
Before taking any action which
would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the Exercise Price, the Company
shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or
bodies having jurisdiction thereof.
(e) Jurisdiction.
All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be determined in accordance
with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement.
(f) Restrictions.
The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered, and the Holder does not
utilize cashless exercise, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws.
(g) Nonwaiver and
Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver
of such right or otherwise prejudice the Holder’s rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding the fact that the right to exercise
this Warrant terminates on the Termination Date. Without limiting any other provision of this Warrant or the Purchase Agreement, if the
Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material damages to the Holder,
the Company shall pay to the Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not limited to,
reasonable attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by the Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant
hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.
(h) Notices. Any
notice, request or other document required or permitted to be given or delivered to the Holder by the Company shall be delivered in accordance
with the notice provisions of the Purchase Agreement.
(i) Limitation of
Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant
Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the purchase
price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the
Company.
(j) Remedies.
The Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific
performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss
incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive and not to assert the defense in any
action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.
(k) Successors and
Assigns. Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit
of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder. The provisions
of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of any Holder from time to time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by the Holder
or holder of Warrant Shares.
(l) Amendment.
This Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company, on the one hand, and
the Holder of this Warrant, on the other hand.
(m) Severability.
Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law,
but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the
extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.
(n) Headings.
The headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant.
(o) Withholding.
The Company shall be entitled to deduct and withhold, or cause to be deducted and withheld, taxes on all payments and distributions (or
deemed distributions) with respect to this Warrant (or upon the exercise thereof) to the extent required by applicable law. To the extent
that any amounts are so deducted or withheld, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Warrant as having been paid to the
Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made. In the event the Company previously remitted any amounts to a governmental
authority on account of taxes required to be deducted or withheld in respect of any payment or distribution (or deemed distribution) with
respect to this Warrant or upon the exercise thereof, the Company shall be entitled (i) to offset any such amounts against any amounts
otherwise payable in respect of this Warrant, any Warrant Shares otherwise required to be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant or
any amounts otherwise payable in respect of Warrant Shares received upon the exercise of this Warrant, or (ii) to require the Person
in respect of whom such deduction or withholding was made to reimburse the Company for such amounts (and such Person shall promptly so
reimburse the Company upon demand).

transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank unless the cashless exercise procedure specified in
Section 2(c) below is specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise. No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be
required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise be required.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the
Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in
which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation as soon as reasonably practicable following the
date on which the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of
a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of
Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Holder and the
Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall
deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise within one (1) Trading Day of receipt of such notice. The Holder and any
assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the
purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given
time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
(b) Exercise
Price. The exercise price per share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be $1.18, subject to adjustment hereunder (the “Exercise
Price”).
(c) Cashless
Exercise. If at the time of exercise hereof there is no effective registration statement registering, or the prospectus contained
therein is not available for the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder, then this Warrant may also be exercised, in whole or in
part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant
Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:
(A) = as applicable:
(i) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise
is (1) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof on a day that is not a Trading Day or
(2) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof on a Trading Day prior to the opening of
“regular trading hours” (as defined in Rule 600(b) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities
laws) on such Trading Day, (ii) at the option of the Holder, either (y) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding
the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise or (z) the Bid Price of the Common Stock on the principal Trading Market as
reported by Bloomberg L.P. (“Bloomberg”) as of the time of the Holder’s execution of the applicable Notice
of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is executed during “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day and is delivered
within two (2) hours thereafter (including until two (2) hours after the close of “regular trading hours” on a
Trading Day) pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof or (iii) the VWAP on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if
the date of such Notice of Exercise is a Trading Day and such Notice of Exercise is both executed and delivered pursuant to
Section 2(a) hereof after the close of “regular trading hours” on such Trading Day;
(B) = the Exercise Price of this
Warrant, as adjusted hereunder; and
(X) = the number of Warrant Shares
that would be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant if such exercise were by means of a
cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise.
“Bid
Price” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the
Common Stock is then listed or quoted on a Trading Market, the bid price of the Common Stock for the time in question (or the nearest
preceding date) on the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a Trading
Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if OTCQB or OTCQX is not a Trading Market,
the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if
the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported on The
Pink Open Market (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per
share of the Common Stock so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined
by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Holders of a majority in interest of the Securities then outstanding and reasonably
acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.
“VWAP”
means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Common Stock is then listed
or quoted on a Trading Market, the daily volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date)
on the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New
York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if the OTCQB Venture Market (“OTCQB”) or the OTCQX
Best Market (“OTCQX”) is not a Trading Market, the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date
(or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading
on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported on the Pink Open Market (“Pink Market”) operated
by the OTC Markets, Inc. (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid
price per share of the Common Stock so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined
by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Holders of a majority in interest of the Securities then outstanding and reasonably
acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.
If Warrant Shares are issued
in such a cashless exercise, the parties acknowledge and agree that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act,
the holding period of the Warrant Shares being issued may be tacked on to the holding period of this Warrant. The Company agrees not to
take any position contrary to this Section 2(c).
| (d) | Mechanics of Exercise. |
i. Delivery
of Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. The Company shall cause the Warrant Shares purchased hereunder to be transmitted by the Transfer
Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust
Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such
system and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of
the Warrant Shares by the Holder or (B) the Warrant Shares are eligible for resale by the Holder without volume or manner-of-sale
limitations pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming cashless exercise of the Warrants) and, in each case, in the reasonable opinion of the
Company, the Securities are no longer required to bear a legend, and otherwise by physical delivery of a certificate, registered in the
Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled
pursuant to such exercise to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that is the earliest of (i) two
(2) Trading Days after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise and of the aggregate Exercise Price (if applicable),
and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of
Exercise and of the aggregate Exercise Price (if applicable) (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”). Upon
delivery of the Notice of Exercise and of the aggregate Exercise Price (if applicable), the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate
purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective
of the date of delivery of the Warrant Shares, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless
exercise) is received by the Warrant Share Delivery Date. The Company agrees to maintain a transfer agent that is a participant in the
FAST program so long as this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable. As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period”
means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary Trading Market with respect
to the Common Stock as in effect on the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any
Notice(s) of Exercise delivered on or prior to 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Trading Day immediately prior to the Initial
Exercise Date, which may be delivered at any time after the time of execution of the Purchase Agreement, the Company agrees to deliver
the Warrant Shares subject to such notice(s) by 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Initial Exercise Date and the Initial
Exercise Date shall be the Warrant Share Delivery Date for purposes hereunder, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price
(other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received by such Warrant Share Delivery Date.
ii. Delivery
of New Warrants Upon Exercise. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request of a Holder
and upon surrender of this Warrant certificate, at the time of delivery of the Warrant Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing
the rights of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other
respects be identical with this Warrant.
iii. Rescission
Rights. If the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 2(d)(i) by
the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.
iv. No
Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this
Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall,
at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the
Exercise Price or round up to the next whole share.
v. Charges,
Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental
expense in respect of the issuance of such Warrant Shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such Warrant
Shares shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; provided, however, that in
the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise
shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder and the Company may require, as a condition
thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent
fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Exercise and all fees to the Depository Trust Company (or another established clearing
corporation performing similar functions) required for same-day electronic delivery of the Warrant Shares.
vi. Closing
of Books. The Company will not close its stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant,
pursuant to the terms hereof.
(e) Holder’s
Exercise Limitations. The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise
any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 2 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise
as set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any other Persons acting
as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates (such Persons, “Attribution Parties”)),
would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the
number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the number
of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude
the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant
beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised
or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other Common Stock Equivalents) subject
to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its
Affiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 2(e), beneficial ownership
shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder,
it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of
the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that
the limitation contained in this Section 2(e) applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation
to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is
exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be the Holder’s
determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates
and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation,
and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any
group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 2(e), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common
Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (A) the Company’s most recent
periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or
(C) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding.
Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within one (1) Trading Day confirm orally and in writing to the Holder
the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined
after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its Affiliates
or Attribution Parties since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The “Beneficial
Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.9% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect
to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Holder, upon notice to the Company, may increase
or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 2(e), provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation
in no event exceeds 9.9% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares
of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant held by the Holder and the provisions of this Section 2(e) shall continue to apply.
Any increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered
to the Company. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with
the terms of this Section 2(e) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with
the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give
effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.
Section 3. Certain
Adjustments.
(a) Stock
Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes
a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of
Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company upon exercise of this
Warrant), (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way
of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues by reclassification of
shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then in each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction
of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before
such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the
number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this
Warrant shall remain unchanged. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall become effective immediately after the
record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately
after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.
(b) Pro
Rata Distributions. During such time as this Warrant is outstanding, if the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution
of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of shares of Common Stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including,
without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification,
corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after
the issuance of this Warrant, then, in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent
that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise
of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation)
immediately before the date of which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the
record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution (provided, however,
that to the extent that the Holder's right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial
Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (or in the beneficial ownership
of any shares of Common Stock as a result of such Distribution to such extent) and the portion of such Distribution shall be held in abeyance
for the benefit of the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership
Limitation).
(c) Fundamental
Transaction. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related
transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company (or any
Subsidiary), directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all
or substantially all of the assets of the Company in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect,
purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of
Common Stock are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by
the holders of 50% or more of the outstanding Common Stock or 50% or more of the voting power of the common equity of the Company,
(iv) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization or
recapitalization of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted
into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, or (v) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related
transactions consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a
reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off, merger or scheme of arrangement) with another Person or group of Persons whereby such
other Person or group acquires 50% or more of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or 50% or more of the voting power of the
common equity of the Company (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent exercise of this
Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise
immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the option of the Holder (without regard to any limitation
in Section 2(e) on the exercise of this Warrant), the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring
corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate
Consideration”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock
for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation in
Section 2(e) on the exercise of this Warrant). For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price
shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in
respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price among the
Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate
Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a
Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any
exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental
Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the
obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 3(d) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by
the Holder (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the Holder, deliver to the
Holder in exchange for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in
form and substance to this Warrant which is exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such Successor
Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant
(without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an exercise
price which applies the exercise price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the
shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of shares
of capital stock and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Warrant immediately prior to
the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder. Upon
the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall be added to the term “Company” under this
Warrant (so that from and after the occurrence or consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, each and every provision of this
Warrant and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to each of the Company and
the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally), and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and
severally with the Company, may exercise every right and power of the Company prior thereto and the Successor Entity or Successor
Entities shall assume all of the obligations of the Company prior thereto under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents
with the same effect as if the Company and such Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally, had been named as the
Company herein. For the avoidance of doubt, the Holder shall be entitled to the benefits of the provisions of this
Section 3(d) regardless of (i) whether the Company has sufficient authorized shares of Common Stock for the issuance
of Warrant Shares and/or (ii) whether a Fundamental Transaction occurs prior to the Initial Exercise Date.
(d) Calculations.
All calculations under this Section 3 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For
purposes of this Section 3, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be
the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.
i. Adjustment
to Exercise Price. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 3, the Company shall promptly
deliver to the Holder by email a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and any resulting adjustment to the number
of Warrant Shares and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.
ii. Notice
to Allow Exercise by Holder. If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on
the Common Stock, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock,
(C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase
any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be
required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Company (or any of
its Subsidiaries) is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of its assets, or any compulsory share exchange
whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property, or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary
or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to
be delivered by email to the Holder at its last email address as it shall appear upon the Warrant Register of the Company, at least
20 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which
a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be
taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption,
rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer
or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the
Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property
deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; provided that the failure to
deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required
to be specified in such notice. To the extent that any notice provided in this Warrant constitutes, or contains, material,
non-public information regarding the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the
Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K. The Holder shall remain entitled to exercise this Warrant during the
period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be
expressly set forth herein.
Section 4. Transfer
of Warrant.
(a) Transferability.
Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws and the conditions set forth in Section 4(d) hereof and to the provisions
of Section 4.1 of the Purchase Agreement, this Warrant and all rights hereunder (including, without limitation, any registration
rights) are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company or its designated
agent, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder or its
agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if
required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable,
and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing
the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company unless the Holder has assigned this Warrant in full,
in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company within three (3) Trading Days of the date on which the Holder
delivers an assignment form to the Company assigning this Warrant in full. The Warrant, if properly assigned in accordance herewith, may
be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued.
(b) New
Warrants. This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the Company,
together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the Holder or
its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section 4(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or combination,
the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance
with such notice. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the Issue Date of this Warrant and shall be identical with
this Warrant except as to the number of Warrant Shares issuable pursuant thereto.
(c) Warrant
Register. The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the
“Warrant Register”), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may deem and
treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution
to the Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.
(d) Representation
by the Holder. The Holder, by the acceptance hereof, represents and warrants that it is acquiring this Warrant and, upon any exercise
hereof, will acquire the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, for its own account and not with a view to or for distributing or
reselling such Warrant Shares or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law, except pursuant
to sales registered or exempted under the Securities Act.
Section 5. Miscellaneous.
(a) No
Rights as Stockholder Until Exercise; No Settlement in Cash. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends
or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 2(d)(i), except as expressly
set forth in Section 3. Without limiting any rights of a Holder to receive Warrant Shares on a “cashless exercise” pursuant
to Section 2(c) or to receive cash payments pursuant to Section 2(d)(i) and Section 2(d)(iv) herein, in
no event shall the Company be required to net cash settle an exercise of this Warrant.
(b) Loss,
Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory
to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case
of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of the Warrant, shall not include
the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make
and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.
(c) 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 Trading Day, then, such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Trading
Day.
(d) Authorized
Shares.
The Company covenants
that, during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient
number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant. The
Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the
duty of issuing the necessary Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all
such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of
any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Trading Market upon which the Common Stock may be listed. The
Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant
will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant and payment for such Warrant Shares in accordance herewith,
be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by the Company
in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).
Except and to the extent as
waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate of
incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any
other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times
in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to
protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company
will (i) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior
to such increase in par value, (ii) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly
and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant and (iii) use commercially reasonable
efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may
be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.
Before taking any action which
would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the Exercise Price, the Company
shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or
bodies having jurisdiction thereof.
(e) Jurisdiction.
All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be determined in accordance
with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement.
(f) Restrictions.
The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered, and the Holder does not
utilize cashless exercise, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws.
(g) Nonwaiver
and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate
as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the Holder’s rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding the fact that the
right to exercise this Warrant terminates on the Termination Date. Without limiting any other provision of this Warrant or the
Purchase Agreement, if the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any
material damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to the Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and
expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred
by the Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies
hereunder.
(h) Notices.
Any notice, request or other document required or permitted to be given or delivered to the Holder by the Company shall be delivered in
accordance with the notice provisions of the Purchase Agreement.
(i) Limitation
of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant
Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the purchase
price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the
Company.
(j) Remedies.
The Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific
performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss
incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive and not to assert the defense in any
action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.
(k) Successors
and Assigns. Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the
benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder.
The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of any Holder from time to time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable
by the Holder or holder of Warrant Shares.
(l) Amendment.
This Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company, on the one hand, and
the Holder of this Warrant, on the other hand.
(m) Severability.
Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law,
but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the
extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.
(n) Headings.
The headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant.
(o) Withholding.
The Company shall be entitled to deduct and withhold, or cause to be deducted and withheld, taxes on all payments and distributions (or
deemed distributions) with respect to this Warrant (or upon the exercise thereof) to the extent required by applicable law. To the extent
that any amounts are so deducted or withheld, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Warrant as having been paid to the
Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made. In the event the Company previously remitted any amounts to a governmental
authority on account of taxes required to be deducted or withheld in respect of any payment or distribution (or deemed distribution) with
respect to this Warrant or upon the exercise thereof, the Company shall be entitled (i) to offset any such amounts against any amounts
otherwise payable in respect of this Warrant, any Warrant Shares otherwise required to be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant or
any amounts otherwise payable in respect of Warrant Shares received upon the exercise of this Warrant, or (ii) to require the Person
in respect of whom such deduction or withholding was made to reimburse the Company for such amounts (and such Person shall promptly so
reimburse the Company upon demand).

Re: Registration Statement on Form S-3;
778,646 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share
To the addressee set forth above:
We have acted as special counsel
to Eloxx Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the resale from
time to time by the selling securityholders named in the Registration Statement (as defined below) of 778,646 shares (the “Shares”)
of the Company’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Common Stock”). The Shares include (a) 157,138
outstanding shares (the “Issued Shares”) of Common Stock, (b) 471,508 shares (the “Pre-Funded
Warrant Shares”) of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding pre-funded warrants to purchase Common Stock (the
“Pre-Funded Warrants”) and 150,000 shares (the “Purchase Warrant Shares” and, together
with the Pre-Funded Warrant Shares, the “Warrant Shares”) of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding
warrants to purchase Common Stock (the “Purchase Warrants” and, together with the Pre-Funded Warrants, the “Warrants”).
The Shares are included in a registration statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”),
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on January 24,
2024 (the “Registration Statement”). This opinion is being furnished in connection with the requirements of
Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Act, and no opinion is expressed herein as to any matter pertaining to the contents of
the Registration Statement or the related prospectus, other than as expressly stated herein with respect to the issue of the Shares.
As such counsel, we have examined
such matters of fact and questions of law as we have considered appropriate for purposes of this letter. With your consent, we have relied
upon certificates and other assurances of officers of the Company and others as to factual matters without having independently verified
such factual matters. We are opining herein as to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”),
and we express no opinion with respect to any other laws.
Subject to the foregoing
and the other matters set forth herein, it is our opinion that, as of the date hereof:
1. The Issued Shares have
been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Company and are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
2. When the Warrant Shares
shall have been duly registered on the books of the transfer agent and registrar therefor in the name or on behalf of the Warrant holders,
and have been issued by the Company against payment therefor (not less than par value) in the circumstances contemplated by the Warrants,
the issue of the Warrant Shares will have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Company and the Warrant Shares
will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. In rendering the foregoing opinion, we have assumed that: (i) the Company will
comply with all applicable notice requirements regarding uncertificated shares provided in the DGCL; (ii) the Warrants have been
duly executed and delivered by the Company and, under the internal laws of the State of New York, constitute valid and legally binding
obligations of the Company; and (iii) upon the issue of any of the Warrant Shares, the total number of shares of Common Stock then
issued and outstanding will not exceed the total number of shares of Common Stock that the Company is then authorized to issue (a) under
its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and (b) by the board of directors of the Company in connection with the offering
contemplated by the Registration Statement.
This opinion is for your benefit
in connection with the Registration Statement and may be relied upon by you and by persons entitled to rely upon it pursuant to the applicable
provisions of the Act. We consent to your filing this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the reference to our
firm in the prospectus under the heading “Legal Matters.” In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that we are in the
category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

Sincerely, |
| |

and since such date, except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, there has not been any change in the share capital, long-term debt, net current
assets or short-term debt of the Company or its Subsidiaries or any adverse change, or any development involving a prospective adverse
change, in or affecting the condition (financial or otherwise), prospects, results of operations, stockholders’ equity, properties,
management or business of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole.
(k) Litigation.
Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, there are no legal or governmental proceedings pending to which the Company or its Subsidiaries
is a party or of which any property or assets of the Company or its Subsidiaries is the subject that, if determined adversely to the Company,
would, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or would, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect on the performance of the Transaction Documents or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by
the Transaction Documents; and to the Company’s knowledge, no such proceedings are threatened or contemplated by governmental authorities
or others.
(l) No
Labor Dispute; Compliance with Labor Laws. No labor disturbance by or dispute with the employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries
exists or, to the Company’s knowledge, is imminent that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither
the Company nor its Subsidiaries is in violation of or has received written notice of any violation with respect to any federal or state
law relating to discrimination in the hiring, promotion or pay of employees, nor any applicable federal or state wage and hour laws, the
violation of any of which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

of incorporation, charter or bylaws (or similar organizational documents), (ii) is in default, and no event has occurred that, with
notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such a default, in the due performance or observance of any term, covenant, condition
or other obligation contained in any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, license or other agreement or instrument to which
it is a party, by which it is bound or to which any of its properties or assets is subject, or (iii) is in violation of any statute
or any order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over it or its property or assets
or (iv) has failed to obtain any license, permit, certificate, franchise or other governmental authorization or permit necessary
to the ownership of its property or to the conduct of its business, except in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), to the extent any
such conflict, breach, violation or default would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.
(n) Healthcare
Matters. The Company and its Subsidiaries are and at all times have been in compliance with all Health Care Laws (as hereinafter defined)
except where such non-compliance would not, singly or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect. For purposes of this Agreement,
“Health Care Laws” means all health care laws applicable to the Company or its Subsidiaries, including, but
not limited to: the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. § 301 et seq.), as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder,
the Anti-Kickback Statute (42 U.S.C. § 1320a-7b(b)), the Civil Monetary Penalties Law (42 U.S.C. § 1320a-7a), the Physician
Payment Sunshine Act (42 U.S.C. § 1320a-7h), the Civil False Claims Act (31 U.S.C. §§ 3729 et seq.), the criminal False
Claims Law (42 U.S.C. § 1320a-7b(a)), all criminal laws relating to health care fraud and abuse, including but not limited to 18
U.S.C. §§ 286 and 287, the health care fraud criminal provisions under the U.S. Health Insurance Portability and Accountability
Act of 1996 (42 U.S.C. Section 1320d et seq.), the exclusion laws (42 U.S.C. § 1320a-7), the Medicare statute (Title XVIII of
the Social Security Act), the Medicaid statute (Title XIX of the Social Security Act), and any and all other similar state, local, federal
or foreign laws or regulations promulgated pursuant to such laws, including, without limitation, the FDA current good manufacturing practice
regulations at 21 CFR Part 820 and all other laws and regulations applicable to ownership, testing, development, manufacture, packaging,
processing, use, distribution, storage, import, export or disposal of any of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ products,
each as amended from time to time and the regulations promulgated thereunder. Neither the Company nor its Subsidiaries has received written
notice of any claim, action, suit, proceeding, hearing, enforcement, investigation, arbitration or other action from any U.S. or non-U.S.
federal, national, state, local or other governmental, administrative or regulatory authority, agency or body, court, arbitrator or self-regulatory
organization (each, a “Governmental Authority”), or third party alleging a violation of any Health Care Laws
in any material respect and, to the Company’s knowledge, no such claim, action, suit, proceeding, hearing, enforcement, investigation,
arbitration or other action is threatened. Except as would not, singly or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect, neither
the Company nor its Subsidiaries has received any unresolved FDA Form 483, written notice of adverse finding, warning letter, untitled
letter or other written correspondence or written notice from any Governmental Authority alleging or asserting non-compliance with any
Health Care Laws. The Company and its Subsidiaries have filed, obtained, maintained or submitted all reports, documents, forms, notices,
applications, records, claims, submissions and supplements or amendments as required by applicable Health Care Laws, and all such reports,
documents, forms, notices, applications, records, claims, submissions and supplements or amendments were complete, correct and not misleading
on the date filed (or were corrected or supplemented by a subsequent submission), except, in each case, where the failure to do so would
not, singly or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect. None of the Company, its Subsidiaries or, to the Company’s
knowledge, any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents has engaged in activities which are, as applicable, cause
for false claims liability, civil penalties or mandatory or permissive debarment, suspension or exclusion from Medicare, Medicaid, or
any other state or federal health care program, clinical trial or clinical registry or, to the Company’s knowledge, is otherwise
subject to an inquiry, investigation, proceeding or other similar action by any Governmental Authority that could reasonably be expected
to result in debarment, suspension, or exclusion. Neither the Company nor its Subsidiaries is a party to or has any ongoing reporting
obligations pursuant to, any corporate integrity agreements, deferred prosecution agreements, monitoring agreements, consent decrees,
settlement orders, plans of correction or similar agreements with or imposed by an Governmental Authority.
(o) Research
and Clinical Studies, Clinical Trials and Clinical Registries. The research and clinical studies, clinical trials and clinical registries
conducted by, on behalf of or sponsored by the Company or its Subsidiaries, or in which the Company or its Subsidiaries has participated,
that are described in the SEC Reports, were, and if still pending are, being conducted in accordance with all applicable Health Care Laws
of the FDA, and comparable medical device regulatory agencies outside of the United States to which they are subject (collectively, the
“Regulatory Authorities”); the descriptions in the SEC Reports of the results of such studies, clinical trials
and clinical registries are accurate and not misleading in all material respects with respect to the portions of such studies, clinical
trials and clinical registries being described; the Company has no knowledge of any other studies, clinical trials or clinical registries
not described in the SEC Reports, the results of which are inconsistent with or reasonably call into question the results described or
referred to in the SEC Reports when viewed in the context in which such results are described and the current state of development; neither
the Company nor its Subsidiaries has received any written notices, correspondence or other communications from the Regulatory Authorities
or any other Governmental Authority requiring or threatening (i) the termination or suspension or clinical hold of any studies, clinical
trials or clinical registries that are described in, or the results of which are referred to in, the SEC Reports, or (ii) the material
modification of any studies, clinical trials or clinical registries that would cause them to materially differ from their descriptions
in the SEC Reports, other than ordinary course communications with respect to modifications in connection with the design and implementation
of such studies, clinical trials or and clinical registries, and, to the Company’s knowledge, there are no reasonable grounds for
the same.
(p) Health
Care Products Manufacturing. The manufacture of the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ products by or on behalf of the Company
and its Subsidiaries is being conducted in compliance with all applicable Health Care Laws, including, without limitation, the FDA’s
current good manufacturing practice regulations at 21 CFR Part 820, and, to the extent applicable, the respective counterparts thereof
promulgated by any other Governmental Authority, except where such noncompliance would not, singly or in the aggregate, have a Material
Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has had any manufacturing site (whether Company-owned, Subsidiary-owned
or, to the Company’s knowledge, that of a third party manufacturer for the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ products)
subject to a Governmental Authority shutdown or import or export prohibition, nor received any unresolved written notice of adverse finding,
warning letter, untitled letter, requests to make material changes to the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ products, processes
or operations, or similar written correspondence or notice from the FDA, or any other Governmental Authority alleging or asserting material
noncompliance with any Health Care Laws or any governmental licenses required by any such Health Care Laws. To the Company’s knowledge,
neither the FDA, nor any other Governmental Authority is considering such action.
(q) No
Safety Notices. Except as would not, singly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect: (i) there have been no recalls,
field notifications, field corrections, market withdrawals or replacements, warnings, “dear doctor” letters, investigator
notices, safety alerts or other notice of action relating to an alleged lack of safety, efficacy, or regulatory compliance of the Company’s
or its Subsidiaries’ products or services (collectively, “Safety Notices”) and (ii) there are no
facts that would be reasonably likely to result in (x) a Safety Notice with respect to the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’
products or services, or (y) a material change in labeling of any of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ products or (z) a
termination or suspension of marketing, testing or distribution of any of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ products or services.
(r) Title
to Assets. The Company and its Subsidiaries have good and marketable title in fee simple to all real property and good and marketable
title to all personal property owned by them, that are material to the business of the Company, in each case free and clear of all liens,
encumbrances and defects, except for such liens, encumbrances and defects 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 its Subsidiaries. All assets held
under lease by the Company and its Subsidiaries, that are material to the business of the Company, are held by them under valid, subsisting
and enforceable leases, with such exceptions as do not materially interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such assets by
the Company and its Subsidiaries.
(s) Intellectual
Property. The Company and its Subsidiaries own or possess, is the assignee of, or can acquire or license on reasonable terms, adequate
rights to practice or to use all patents, patent applications, statutory invention rights, community designs, invention disclosures, rights
in utility models and industrial designs, inventions, registered and unregistered copyrights (including copyrights in software), trademarks,
service marks, business names, trade names, logos, slogans, trade dress, design rights, Internet domain names, social media accounts,
any other designations of source or origin, intellectual property rights in technology, software, data and know how (including trade secrets
and other unpatented and/or unpatentable proprietary or confidential information, systems or procedures), and any applications (including
provisional applications), registrations, or renewals for any of the foregoing, together with the goodwill associated with any of the
foregoing, and/or other intellectual property (collectively, “Intellectual Property”), in each case used in
or necessary to carry on the business now operated by them, and as proposed to be operated as described in the SEC Reports. The foregoing
sentence, however, shall not be construed as the Company representing that it has freedom to operate. (i) Neither the Company nor
any of its Subsidiaries has received any written notice of nor, to the Company’s knowledge, has engaged in any infringement, misappropriation
or other violation of or conflict regarding any Intellectual Property of any third party, and (ii) there is no pending or, to the
Company’s knowledge, threatened, action, suit, proceeding or claim regarding the subject matter of the foregoing clause (i). All
Intellectual Property owned by or assigned to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and used in the business now operated by them, and
as proposed to be operated as described in the SEC Reports (the “Company Intellectual Property”) has been duly
maintained (except for intentional abandonments that may occur during routine portfolio management) is subsisting and, to the Company’s
knowledge, is valid and enforceable and free of material defects in connection with the filing and prosecution thereof. There is no pending
or threatened action, suit, proceeding or, to the Company’s knowledge, claim by any third party challenging the Company’s
or any of its Subsidiaries’ rights in, or the validity, ownership, registrability, enforceability or scope of, any such Company
Intellectual Property. To the Company’s knowledge, no third party is infringing, misappropriating or otherwise violating any of
the Company Intellectual Property, except to the extent any such infringement, misappropriation, or violation would not reasonably be
expected, singly or in the aggregate, to materially affect the value of such Company Intellectual Property, and there is no pending or
threatened action, suit, proceeding or claim by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries against a third party regarding the foregoing.
Each person who is or was an employee or contractor of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and who is, was or is expected to be involved
in the creation or development of any Intellectual Property for or on behalf of the Company or such Subsidiaries has executed a valid
written agreement effectively and presently assigning to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries all of such person’s rights in and
to such Intellectual Property and, to the Company’s knowledge, no employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is in or has
ever been in violation of any term of any agreement with or covenant to a former employer where the basis of such violation relates to
such employee’s employment with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or actions undertaken by the employee while employed with
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except to the extent any such violation would not reasonably be expected, singly or in the aggregate,
to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company and its Subsidiaries have taken all commercially reasonable steps necessary to maintain
and protect the confidentiality of the trade secrets and other confidential Intellectual Property used in connection with the businesses
of the Company and its Subsidiaries and the confidentiality of such trade secrets and confidential Intellectual Property has not been
compromised or disclosed to or accessed by any third party except pursuant to appropriate nondisclosure and confidentiality agreements,
except to the extent any failure to protect or maintain such information would not reasonably be expected, singly or in the aggregate,
to have a Material Adverse Effect. No university, military, educational institution, research center, Governmental Authority or other
organization has funded, contributed to or sponsored research and development conducted in connection with the business of the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries that has any claim of right to, ownership of or other lien on, or that would affect the proprietary nature
of, or restrict the ability of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to enforce, license or exclude others from using, in each case,
any Company Intellectual Property developed or created by or on behalf of the Company, or, to the Company’s knowledge, any Company
Intellectual Property acquired by or licensed to the Company from a third party.
(t) Insurance.
The Company and its Subsidiaries carry or are entitled to the benefits of insurance, with financially sound and reputable insurers, in
such amounts and covering such risks as is generally maintained by companies of established repute engaged in the same or similar business,
and all such insurance is in full force and effect. The Company has no reason to believe that it or any of its Subsidiaries will not be
able (A) to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such policies expire or (B) to obtain comparable coverage from
similar institutions as may be necessary or appropriate to conduct its business as now conducted and at a cost that would not, singly
or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has been denied any insurance
coverage which it has sought or for which it has applied.
(u) Transactions
With Affiliates and Employees. Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, no relationship, direct or indirect, exists between or among
the Company, on the one hand, and the directors, officers, or stockholders holding more than 5% of the Company’s outstanding Common
Stock, on the other hand, that is required to be described in the SEC Reports that is not so described.
(v) Internal
Accounting Controls. The Company and the Subsidiaries each maintain a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide
reasonable assurances that (A) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization;
(B) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain
accountability for assets; (C) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization;
and (D) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is
taken with respect to any differences. Except as described in the SEC Reports, since the end of the Company’s most recent audited
fiscal year the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is effective and there has been (1) no material weakness
in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (whether or not remediated) and (2) no change in the Company’s
internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s
internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s board of directors has, subject to the exceptions, cure periods and the
phase-in periods specified in the applicable stock exchange rules (“Exchange Rules”), validly appointed
an audit committee to oversee internal accounting controls whose composition satisfies the applicable requirements of the Exchange Rules and
the Company’s board of directors and/or the audit committee has adopted a charter that satisfies the requirements of the Exchange
Rules in respect of the audit committee.
(w) Sarbanes-Oxley
Compliance. There is and has been no failure on the part of the Company or, to the Company’s knowledge, any of the Company’s
directors or officers, in their capacities as such, to comply with any provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act that are applicable to the
Company or its directors or officers in their capacities as directors or officers of the Company as of the date of this Agreement.
(x) No
Brokers. Neither the Company nor its Subsidiaries is a party to any contract, agreement or understanding with any person that would
give rise to a valid claim against the Purchaser for a brokerage commission, finder’s fee or like payment in connection with the
offering and sale of the Securities. The Purchaser 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 this Agreement
or the transactions contemplated hereby.
(y) Private
Placement. Assuming the accuracy of the Purchaser’s representations and warranties set forth in Section 5, the issuance
by the Company of the Securities is exempt from registration under the Securities Act. Assuming the making and the obtaining of the Required
Approvals, and compliance by the Purchaser with its obligations in the Transaction Documents the issuance and sale of the Securities hereunder
does not contravene the rules and regulations of the Trading Market.
(z) Investment
Company. The Company is not, and will not be, after giving effect to the offer and sale of the Securities, required to register as
an “investment company” (within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended).
(aa) Registration
Rights. Except as set forth in the SEC Reports, and other than as set forth herein, there are no contracts, agreements or understandings
between the Company and any person granting such person the right to require the Company to file a Registration Statement under the Securities
Act with respect to any securities of the Company owned or to be owned by such person. There are no contracts, agreements or understandings
to require the Company to include any such securities in the Securities proposed to be offered pursuant to the Transaction Documents.
(bb) Exchange
Act Registration and Listing of the Common Stock. The Company’s Common Stock is registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of
the Exchange Act and quoted on the Principal Trading Market; the Company has taken no action designed to, or reasonably likely to have
the effect of, terminating the registration of the Common Stock under the Exchange Act or removing the Common Stock from the Principal
Trading Market, nor has the Company received any notification that the SEC or FINRA is contemplating terminating such registration or
listing. The Shares are currently eligible for electronic transfer through the DTC or another established clearing corporation and the
Company is current in payment of the fees to the DTC (or such other established clearing corporation) in connection with such electronic
transfer.
(cc) Disclosure.
Except as described in Schedule 5.1(bb), the Company confirms that it has not provided, and to the Company’s knowledge, none
of its officers or directors nor any other Person acting on its or their behalf has provided, the Purchaser or its respective agents or
counsel with any information that it believes constitutes material, non-public information regarding the Company or its Subsidiaries except
(i) insofar as the existence, provisions and terms of the Transaction Documents and the proposed transactions hereunder may constitute
such information, all of which will be disclosed by the Company in the press release as contemplated by Section 6(d) hereof.
All of the disclosure furnished by or on behalf of the Company to the Purchaser 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 Company is not aware of any material misrepresentation
contained in the press releases disseminated by the Company since the effective date of the Company’s initial public offering taken
as a whole when such press releases were disseminated by the Company. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Purchaser does not
make and has not made any representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby other than those specifically
set forth in Section 5 hereof. The Company understands and confirms that Purchaser will rely on the foregoing representations in
effecting transactions in securities of the Company.
(dd) No
Integrated Offering. Assuming the accuracy of the Purchaser’ representations and warranties set forth in Section 5, none
of the Company, its Subsidiaries nor any of its affiliates or any Person acting on its behalf has, directly or indirectly, at any time
within the past six (6) months, made any offers or sales of any Company security or solicited any offers to buy any security under
circumstances that would (i) eliminate the availability of the exemption from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities
Act in connection with the offer and sale by the Company of the Securities as contemplated hereby or (ii) cause the offering of the
Securities pursuant to the Transaction Documents to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of any applicable law,
regulation or stockholder approval provisions, including, without limitation, under the rules and regulations of any Trading Market
on which any of the securities of the Company are listed or designated.
(ee) Tax
Matters. The Company and its Subsidiaries have filed all federal, state, local and foreign tax returns required to be filed through
the date hereof, subject to permitted extensions (except where the failure to file would not individually or in the aggregate, reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect), and have paid all taxes due (except for such taxes, if any, (i) as are being contested
in good faith and as to which adequate reserves have been provided in accordance with GAAP by the Company or (ii) the failure to
pay would not individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect), and no tax deficiency has been
determined adversely to the Company or its Subsidiaries. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Company in respect of
any income and corporation tax liability for any years not finally determined are adequate to meet any assessments or re-assessments for
additional income tax for any years not finally determined, except to the extent of any inadequacy that would not, singly or in the aggregate,
result in a Material Adverse Effect.
(ff) Compliance
with Environmental Laws. Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, neither the Company nor its Subsidiaries is in violation of any statute,
any rule, regulation, decision or order of any Governmental Authority or any court, domestic or foreign, relating to the use, disposal
or release of hazardous or toxic substances or relating to the protection or restoration of the environment or human exposure to hazardous
or toxic substances (collectively, “Environmental Laws”), owns or operates any real property contaminated with
any substance that is subject to any Environmental Laws, is liable for any off-site disposal or contamination pursuant to any Environmental
Laws, or is subject to any claim relating to any Environmental Laws, which violation, contamination, liability or claim would, individually
or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. In the ordinary course of its business, the Company periodically reviews the effect
of Environmental Laws on the business, operations and properties of the Company and its subsidiaries, in the course of which it identifies
and evaluates associated costs and liabilities (including, without limitation, any capital or operating expenditures required for clean-up,
closure of properties or compliance with Environmental Laws or any permit, authorization, registration or approval thereunder, any related
constraints on operating activities and any potential liabilities to third parties); on the basis of such review, the Company has reasonably
concluded that such associated costs and liabilities would not, singly or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect.
(gg) No
General Solicitation. Neither the Company, nor any Person acting on behalf of the Company, has offered or sold any of the Securities
by any form of general solicitation or general advertising.
(hh) Anti-Bribery
and Anti-Money Laundering Laws. Each of the Company, the Subsidiaries, any of their respective officers, directors, affiliates and

not violate, and the Company and the Subsidiaries have instituted and maintain policies and procedures designed to ensure continued compliance
with, each of the following laws: (i) anti-bribery laws, including but not limited to, any applicable law, rule or regulation
of any locality, including but not limited to any law, rule or regulation promulgated to implement the OECD Convention on Combating
Bribery of Foreign Public Officials in International Business Transactions, signed December 17, 1997, including the U.S. Foreign
Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended, the U.K. Bribery Act 2010, or any other law, rule or regulation of similar purposes and
scope or (ii) anti-money laundering laws, including but not limited to, applicable federal, state, international, foreign or other
laws, regulations or government guidance regarding anti-money laundering, including, without limitation, Title 18 U.S.C. §§
1956 and 1957, the Patriot Act, the Bank Secrecy Act and international anti-money laundering principles or procedures by an intergovernmental
group or organization, such as the Financial Action Task Force on Money Laundering, of which the United States is a member and with which
designation the United States representative to the group or organization continues to concur, all as amended, and any Executive order,
directive or regulation pursuant to the authority of any of the foregoing, or any orders or licenses issued thereunder.
(ii) Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements. There are no transactions, arrangements or other relationships between and/or among the Company, and/or, to the
Company’s knowledge, any of its affiliates and any unconsolidated entity, including, but not limited to, any structural finance,
special purpose or limited purpose entity (each, an “Off-Balance Sheet Transaction”) that could reasonably be
expected to materially affect the Company’s liquidity or the availability of or requirements for its capital resources, including
those Off-Balance Sheet Transactions described in the SEC’s Statement about Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Conditions and Results of Operations (Release Nos. 33-8056; 34-45321; FR-61), and are required to be described in the SEC Reports, which
have not been described as required.
(jj) Acknowledgment
Regarding Purchasers’ Purchase of Securities. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Purchaser is acting solely in the
capacity of an arm’s-length purchaser with respect to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.
The Company further acknowledges that the Purchaser is not 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 Purchaser’s purchase of the Securities. The Company further represents to the 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

(ll) PFIC.
Subject to the qualifications and assumptions set forth in the SEC Reports, the Company is not, and upon the sale of the Securities contemplated
hereby does not expect to become, a “passive foreign investment company” (as defined in Section 1297 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder).
(mm) Office
of Foreign Assets Control. Neither the Company nor the Subsidiaries, nor any or their directors, officers or employees, nor, to the
Company’s knowledge, any agent, affiliate or representative of the Company or the Subsidiaries, is an individual or entity that
is, or is owned or controlled by an individual or entity that is: (i) the subject of any sanctions administered or enforced by the
U.S. Department of Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control, the United Nations Security Council, the European Union, Her Majesty’s
Treasury, or other relevant sanctions authority (collectively, “Sanctions”), nor (ii) located, organized
or resident in a country or territory that is the subject of Sanctions (including, without limitation, Burma/Myanmar, Cuba, Iran,
Libya, North Korea, Russia and Syria). Neither the Company nor the Subsidiaries will, directly or indirectly, use the proceeds of the
offering, or lend, contribute or otherwise make available such proceeds to any Subsidiaries, joint venture partner or other individual
or entity: (i) to fund or facilitate any activities or business of or with any individual or entity or in any country or territory
that, at the time of such funding or facilitation, is the subject of Sanctions; or (ii) in any other manner that will result in a
violation of Sanctions by any individual or entity (including any individual or entity participating in the offering, whether as underwriter,
advisor, investor or otherwise). For the past five years, neither the Company nor the Subsidiaries has knowingly engaged in, and is not
now knowingly engaged in, any dealings or transactions with any individual or entity, or in any country or territory, that at the time
of the dealing or transaction is or was the subject of Sanctions.

agreements, monitoring agreements, consent decrees, settlement orders, or similar agreements with or imposed by any Governmental Authority.
(qq) Material
Contracts. There are no contracts or other documents required to be described in the SEC Reports or filed as exhibits to the SEC Reports
pursuant to Item 601 of Regulation S-K that are not described and filed as required. The statements made in the SEC Reports, insofar as
they purport to constitute summaries of the terms of the contracts and other documents described and filed pursuant to Item 601 of Regulation
S-K, constitute accurate summaries of the terms of such contracts and documents in all material respects. Except as disclosed in the SEC
Reports, neither the Company nor its Subsidiary is aware that any other party to any such contract or other document filed pursuant to
Item 601 of Regulation S-K does not intend to perform its material obligations under the terms thereof.
(rr) Disclosure

under the Exchange Act) and such controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that material information relating to the Company,
including the Subsidiaries, is made known to the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer. The Company has utilized
such controls and procedures in preparing and evaluating the disclosures in the SEC Reports.
(ss) Legal
Proceedings. Except as set forth in the SEC Reports, there is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation now pending or,
to the Company’s knowledge, threatened, against or affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, which might, singly or in the
aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect, or which might materially and adversely affect their respective properties or assets or
the consummation of the transactions contemplated in the Transaction Documents or the performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder;
and the aggregate of all pending legal or governmental actions, suits, inquiries, investigations or proceedings to which the Company or
any such Subsidiary is a party or of which any of their respective properties or assets is the subject which are not described in the
SEC Reports, including ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business, could not, singly or in the aggregate, result in a Material
Adverse Effect.
5. Purchaser
Representations. In connection with the receipt of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement, Purchaser represents, warrants,
agrees and acknowledges to the Company the following:
(a) The
Purchaser has all requisite power to execute and deliver this Agreement, to purchase the Shares, the Pre-Funded Warrants and the Warrants
hereunder, and to carry out and perform its obligations under the terms of this Agreement.
(b) The
execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement by the Purchaser has been duly authorized by all requisite action on the part of
the Purchaser, and this Agreement constitutes the legal, valid, and binding obligation of the Purchaser enforceable in accordance with
its terms, except (i) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, and other laws of general application
affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific
performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies.
(c) The
execution, delivery and performance by Purchaser of this Agreement do not and will not contravene or constitute a default under, or violation
of, or be subject to penalties under, (i) the organization documents of the Purchaser, (ii) any agreement (or require the consent
of any party under any such agreement that has not been made or obtained) to which Purchaser is a party, or (iii) to the knowledge
of the Purchaser, any judgment, injunction, order, decree or other instrument binding upon Purchaser.
(d) Purchaser
is (i) a qualified institutional buyer (as defined in Rule 144A of the Securities Act), or (ii) an institutional accredited
investor (as described in Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Regulation D under the Securities Act). Accordingly, Purchaser
understands that the offering meets the exemptions from filing under FINRA Rule 5123(b)(1)(C) or (J). Purchaser was not organized
solely for the purpose of acquiring the Securities and is not required to be registered as a broker-dealer under Section 15 of the
Securities Exchange Act.
(e) Purchaser
(i) is an institutional account as defined in FINRA Rule 4512(c), (ii) is a sophisticated investor, experienced in investing
in private equity transactions and capable of evaluating investment risks independently, both in general and with regard to all transactions
and investment strategies involving a security or securities and (iii) has exercised independent judgment in evaluating its participation
in the purchase of the Shares and/or Warrants. Accordingly, Purchaser understands that the offering meets (i) the exemptions from
filing under FINRA Rule 5123(b)(1)(A) and (ii) the institutional customer exemption under FINRA Rule 2111(b).
(f) Purchaser
acknowledges and affirms that it has conducted and completed its own investigation, analysis and evaluation related to the Company and
investment in the Shares, the Pre-Funded Warrants and the Warrants. Purchaser has had full access to, and a full opportunity to review,
all the information it considers necessary or appropriate to make an informed investment decision with respect to the Securities, including
financial information. Purchaser has been offered the opportunity to ask questions of the Company and received answers thereto as Purchaser
deems necessary in connection with the decision to purchase the Shares, the Pre-Funded Warrants and the Warrants. Purchaser has conducted
its own assessment and has satisfied itself concerning the relevant tax and other economic considerations relevant to the investment in
the Shares, the Pre-Funded Warrants and the Warrants.
(g) Purchaser
is acquiring the Shares, the Pre-Funded Warrants and the Warrants hereunder for its own account or for an account over which the Purchaser
exercises sole discretion for another qualified institutional buyer or institutional accredited investor. Purchaser is acquiring the Shares,
the Pre-Funded Warrants and the Warrants hereunder for investment purposes only and not with a view to any public distribution thereof
or with any intention of selling, distributing or otherwise disposing of the Shares, the Pre-Funded Warrants and the Warrants in a manner
that would violate the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The Purchaser is able to fend for itself in the transactions contemplated
herein; is able to bear the economic risk of holding the Shares, the Pre-Funded Warrants and the Warrants for an indefinite period (including
total loss of its investment); and has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial and business matters so as to be capable of evaluating
the merits and risk of its investment.
(h) Purchaser
understands that the Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act or any other applicable securities laws by reason of
specific exemptions therefrom, which exemptions depend upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of Purchaser’s investment
intent as expressed herein.
(i) Purchaser
understands that the Securities are “restricted securities” under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and that,
pursuant to these laws, Purchaser must hold the Securities indefinitely unless they are registered with the SEC and qualified by state
authorities, or an exemption from such registration and qualification requirements is available. Unless so registered, the Securities
may not be offered, sold or otherwise transferred except in compliance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act or any
other applicable securities laws, pursuant to any exemption therefrom or in a transaction not subject thereto.
(j) No
broker, finder or investment banker is entitled to any brokerage, finder’s or other fee or commission in connection with the transactions
contemplated hereby based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of Purchaser.
| 6. | Other Agreements of the Parties. |
| (a) | Transfer Restrictions. |
(i) Legends.
It is understood that, except as provided below, book-entry notations evidencing the Securities may bear the following or any similar
legend:
“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER
THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTIONS. THESE SECURITIES
ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY AND RESALE AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED OR RESOLD EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER THE ACT
AND THE APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF OTHER STATES AND JURISDICTIONS, PURSUANT TO REGISTRATION OR EXEMPTION THEREFROM. INVESTORS SHOULD
BE AWARE THAT THEY MAY BE REQUIRED TO BEAR THE FINANCIAL RISKS OF THIS INVESTMENT FOR AN INDEFINITE PERIOD OF TIME. THE ISSUER OF
THESE SECURITIES MAY REQUIRE AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER TO THE EFFECT
THAT ANY PROPOSED TRANSFER OR RESALE IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE ACT.”
If required by the authorities of any state in connection with the
issuance and sale of the Securities, the legend required by such state authority.
(ii) Removal
of Legends. The legend set forth in Section 6(a)(i) above shall be removed and the Company shall issue a book-entry notation
(or certificate, as applicable) to such holder or issue to such holder by electronic delivery at the applicable balance account at the
DTC, upon the earlier to occur of (i) such Securities are registered for resale under the Securities Act and Purchaser has provided
to the Company representations of itself and, if applicable, its broker reasonably satisfactory to its counsel and transfer agent that
such Shares may be delegended (provided that, if the Purchaser is selling pursuant to the effective Registration Statement (as
defined in Section 7 below) registering the Purchaser Shares for resale, the Purchaser hereby agrees to only sell such Purchaser
Shares during such time that such Registration Statement is effective and not withdrawn or suspended, and only as permitted by such Registration
Statement), (ii) such Securities are sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act (“Rule 144”),
or (iii) such Securities are eligible for sale under Rule 144, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with
the current public information required under Rule 144 as to such Securities and without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions. Following
the earlier of (i) the Registration Effective Date (as defined below) and (ii) Rule 144 becoming available for the resale
of the Securities, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144
as to such Securities and without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions (and provided that Purchaser has provided to the Company representations
of itself and, if applicable, its broker reasonably satisfactory to its counsel and transfer agent that such Shares may be delegended),
the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause Company Counsel or any subsequent counsel to issue a legal opinion to the transfer
agent or the Purchaser promptly if required by the transfer agent to effect the removal of the legend hereunder. For the avoidance of
doubt, the removal of such legends pursuant to the previous sentence shall not be conditioned upon the sale, transfer or disposition of
the Securities by the Purchaser. Any fees (with respect to the transfer agent, Company Counsel or otherwise) associated with the issuance
of such opinion or the removal of such legend shall be borne by the Company. Following the Registration Effective Date, or at such earlier
time as a legend is no longer required for the Purchaser Shares (and provided that Purchaser has provided to the Company representations
of itself and, if applicable, its broker reasonably satisfactory to its counsel and transfer agent that such Shares may be delegended),
the Company will, no later than two (2) Business Days following the delivery by a Purchaser to the Company (with written notice to
the Company) of a book-entry notation representing the Purchaser’s Shares (endorsed or with stock powers attached, signatures guaranteed,
and otherwise in the form necessary to affect the reissuance and/or transfer) and an opinion of counsel to the extent required by Section 6(a)(i) (such
date, the “Legend Removal Date”), deliver or cause to be delivered to the Purchaser a book-entry notation free
from all restrictive and other legends. The Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to the transfer agent
that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 6(a)(ii). Book-entry notations subject to legend removal
hereunder may be transmitted by the transfer agent to the Purchasers by crediting the account of the Purchaser’s prime broker with
DTC as directed by such Purchaser.
(iii) Irrevocable
Transfer Agent Instructions. The Company shall issue irrevocable instructions to its transfer agent, and any subsequent transfer agent
to issue to the Purchaser (or in such nominee’s name(s) as designated by a Purchaser) book-entry notations representing the
Shares set forth in Section 1 hereto (the “Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions”). The Company represents
and warrants that no instruction other than the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions referred to in this Section 6(a)(iii) (or
instructions that are consistent therewith) will be given by the Company to the transfer agent in connection with this Agreement (other
than those instructions contemplated in Section 3(b)) and that the Shares shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books
and records of the Company as and to the extent provided in this Agreement and applicable law. The Company acknowledges that a breach
by it of its obligations under this Section 6(a)(iii) will cause irreparable harm to the Purchaser. Accordingly, the Company
acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Section 6(a)(iii) will be inadequate and
agrees, in the event of a breach by the Company of the provisions of this Section 6(a)(iii), that the Purchaser shall be entitled,
in addition to all other available remedies, to an order and/or injunction restraining any breach and requiring immediate issuance and
transfer, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.
(b) Furnishing
of Information. In order to enable the Purchaser to sell the Securities under Rule 144, for a period of twelve (12) months from
the Closing, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file
within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to the Exchange Act.
During such twelve (12)-month period, if the Company is not required to file reports pursuant to the Exchange Act, it will prepare and
furnish to the Purchaser and make publicly available in accordance with Rule 144(c) such information as is required for the
Purchaser to sell the Securities under Rule 144.
(c) Integration.
The Company shall not, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that no affiliate of the Company shall, sell, offer
for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security of the Company that will be integrated with the offer
or sale of the Securities in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Securities to the
Purchaser, or that will be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities for purposes of the rules and regulations of any Trading
Market such that it would require stockholder approval prior to the closing of such other transaction unless stockholder approval is obtained
before the closing of such subsequent transaction.
(d) Securities
Law Disclosure; Publicity. The Company shall, by 9:00 A.M., New York City time, on the first (1st) Business Day immediately following
the date of this Agreement (the “Disclosure Time”), issue a press release or file with the SEC a Current Report
on Form 8-K (the “Disclosure Document”) disclosing all material terms of the Transaction Documents and
the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, the transaction and any other material, nonpublic information that the Company or any
of its representatives, affiliates, officers, directors, or employees or agents, has provided to the Purchaser or any of Purchaser’s
affiliates, attorneys, agents or representatives at any time prior to the issuance or filing of the Disclosure Document. Upon the issuance
of the Disclosure Document, Purchaser and Purchaser’s affiliates, attorneys, agents and representatives shall not be in possession
of any material, non-public information received from the Company, any subsidiary of the Company or any of their respective representatives,
affiliates, officers, directors, or employees or agents, and including. The Purchaser covenants that until the earlier of (i) the
Disclosure Time and (ii) the issuance or filing of the Disclosure Document, it will maintain the confidentiality of all disclosures
made to it in connection with this transaction (including the existence and terms of this transaction). Upon the earlier of (i) the
Disclosure Time and (ii) the issuance or filing of the Disclosure Document, the Purchaser shall no longer be subject to any confidentiality
or similar obligations under any current agreement, whether written or oral, with the Company, any subsidiary of the Company or any of
their respective representatives, affiliates, officers, directors, employees or agents. The Company understands and confirms that the
Purchaser and its affiliates will rely on the foregoing representations in effecting transactions in securities of the Company. Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company (i) shall not publicly disclose the name of Purchaser or any of its affiliates
or advisers, or include the name of Purchaser or any of its affiliates or advisers in any press release, without the prior written consent
of Purchaser and (ii) shall not publicly disclose the name of Purchaser or any of its affiliates or advisers, or include the name
of Purchaser or any of its affiliates or advisers in any filing with the SEC or any regulatory agency or trading market, without the prior
written consent of Purchaser, except (A) as required by the federal securities laws, rules or regulations and (B) to the
extent such disclosure is required by other laws, rules or regulations, at the request of the staff of the SEC or regulatory agency
or under the regulations of the Principal Trading Market, in which case of clause (A) or (B), the Company shall provide Purchaser
with prior written notice (including by e-mail) of such permitted disclosure, and shall reasonably consult with Purchaser regarding such
disclosure.
(e) Stockholder
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, in either case solely by virtue of receiving Securities under
the Transaction Documents or under any other written agreement between the Company and the Purchasers; provided, however,
that no such Purchaser owns any equity in the Company prior to its purchase of the Securities hereunder.
(f) Non-Public
Information. Except with respect to the material terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents,
including this Agreement and the information contained in it and any schedules hereto, or as expressly required by any applicable securities
law, the Company covenants and agrees that neither it, nor any other Person acting on its behalf, including its representatives, affiliates,
officers, directors, employees or agents, will provide the Purchaser or any of Purchaser’s affiliates, attorneys, agents or representatives
with any information regarding the Company that the Company believes constitutes material non-public information regarding the Company
or any subsidiary of the Company without the express written consent of the Purchaser or any of Purchaser’s affiliates, attorneys,
agents or representatives. The Company understands and confirms that the Purchaser shall be relying on the foregoing covenant in effecting
transactions in securities of the Company. To the extent that the Company delivers any material, non-public information to the Purchaser
without Purchaser’s consent, the Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Purchaser shall not have any duty of confidentiality
to the Company or any of its officers, directors, agents, employees or affiliates, or a duty to the Company or any of its officers, directors,
agents, employees or affiliates, 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 the Subsidiary, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the SEC
pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K. The Company understands and confirms that the Purchaser shall be relying on the foregoing
covenant in effecting transactions in securities of the Company.
(g) Principal
Trading Market Listing. Prior to the Closing to the extent required, the Company shall prepare and file with such Principal Trading
Market an additional shares listing application covering all of the Purchaser Shares and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts
to take all steps necessary to cause all of the Purchaser Shares to be approved for listing on the Principal Trading Market as promptly
as possible thereafter. 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 Purchaser Shares, and will take such other action as is necessary to cause all of
the Purchaser 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 DTC or another established clearing corporation, including,
without limitation, by timely payment of fees to the DTC or such other established clearing corporation in connection with such electronic
transfer.
(h) Short
Sales. Each Purchaser covenants that neither it nor any affiliates acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will
execute any Short Sales or otherwise seek to hedge its position in the Company’s securities during the period from the date hereof
until the earlier of (i) the Registration Effective Date or (ii) the date this Agreement is terminated in full. Each Purchaser
understands and acknowledges that the SEC currently takes the position that coverage of short sales of Common Stock “against the
box” prior to effectiveness of a resale registration statement with securities included in such registration statement would be
a violation of Section 5 of the Securities Act, as set forth in Item 239.10 of the Securities Act Rules Compliance and Disclosure
Interpretations compiled by the Office of Chief Counsel, Division of Corporation Finance.
(a) Mandatory
Registration. The Company agrees that, within fifteen (15) calendar days following the Closing Date (the “Filing Deadline”),
the Company will file with the SEC (at the Company’s sole cost and expense) a registration statement on appropriate form registering
the resale of the full amount of Shares, Pre-Funded Warrant Shares and Warrant Shares (and any other equity security issued or issuable
with respect to the Shares, Pre-Funded Warrant Shares and Warrant Shares by way of share split, dividend, distribution, recapitalization,
merger, exchange, or replacement, the “Registrable Securities”) and naming the Purchaser as a selling shareholder
thereunder (the “Registration Statement”), and the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to
have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but in any event no later than thirty
(30) calendar days after the Closing Date (the “Effectiveness Deadline”); provided, that the Effectiveness Deadline
shall be extended to sixty (60) calendar days after the filing of such Registration Statement if such Registration Statement is reviewed
by, and comments thereto are provided from, the SEC; provided, further that the Company shall have the Registration Statement declared
effective within three (3) Business Days after the date the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the
staff of the SEC (the “Staff”) that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not
be subject to further review. The Company shall provide a draft of the Registration Statement to Purchaser at least five (5) Business
Days in advance of the date of filing the Registration Statement with the SEC (the “Filing Date”), and Purchaser
shall provide any comments on the Registration Statement to the Company no later than two (2) Business Days immediately preceding
the Filing Date. Upon notification by the SEC that any Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC, within two (2) Business
Day thereafter, the Company shall file the final prospectus under Rule 424 of the Securities Act. In no event shall the Purchaser
be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement unless requested by the SEC; provided, that if the SEC requests
that Purchaser be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement, Purchaser will have the option, in its sole and
absolute discretion, to either (i) have the opportunity to withdraw from the Registration Statement, in which case the Company’s
obligation to register the Registrable Securities will be deemed satisfied or (ii) be included as such in the Registration Statement.
Subject to any comments from the SEC, such Registration Statement shall include the plan of distribution attached hereto as Exhibit A.
Such Registration Statement shall not include any shares of Common Stock or other securities for the account of any other holder without
the prior written consent of the Purchaser. The Company shall notify the Purchaser by facsimile or e-mail as promptly as practicable,
and in any event, within twenty-four (24) hours, after the Registration Statement is declared effective or is supplemented and shall provide
the Purchaser with copies of any related prospectus to be used in connection with the sale or other disposition of the securities covered
thereby.
(b) Rule 415;
Cutback. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the SEC prevents the Company from including any or all of the Registrable Securities proposed
to be registered under the Registration Statement due to limitations on the use of Rule 415 of the Securities Act for the resale
of the Registrable Securities by the Purchaser or otherwise (and notwithstanding that the Company used diligent efforts to advocate with
the Staff for the registration of all or a greater portion of the Registrable Securities), such Registration Statement shall register
for resale such number of Registrable Securities which is equal to the maximum number of Registrable Securities as is permitted by the
SEC. As promptly as practicable after being permitted to register additional shares under Rule 415 under the Securities Act, the
Company shall amend the Registration Statement or file one or more new Registration Statement(s) (such amendment or new Registration
Statement shall also be deemed to be a “Registration Statement” hereunder) to register such additional Registrable
Securities and cause such amendment or Registration Statement(s) to become effective as promptly as practicable after the filing
thereof, but in any event no later than forty-five (45) calendar days after the filing of such Registration Statement (the “Additional
Effectiveness Deadline”); provided, that the Additional Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to ninety (90) calendar
days after the filing of such Registration Statement if such Registration Statement is reviewed by, and comments thereto are provided
from, the SEC; provided, further that the Company shall have the Registration Statement declared effective within three (3) Business
Days after the date the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Staff that the Registration Statement
will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review. Any failure by the Company to file a Registration Statement
by the Effectiveness Deadline or Additional Effectiveness Deadline shall not otherwise relieve the Company of its obligations to file
or effect a Registration Statement as set forth in this Section 7(b).
(c) Reserved.
(d) Related
Obligations. At such time as the Company is obligated to file a Registration Statement with the SEC pursuant to Section 7(a) hereof,
the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended
method of disposition thereof and, pursuant thereto, the Company shall have the following obligations:
(i) The
Company shall submit to the SEC, within two (2) Business Days after the Company learns that no review of a particular Registration
Statement will be made by the Staff or that the Staff has no further comments on a particular Registration Statement, as the case may
be, a request for acceleration of effectiveness of such Registration Statement to a time and date not later than two (2) Business
Days after the submission of such request. The Company shall keep each Registration Statement effective at all times with respect to the
Purchaser’s Registrable Securities until the expiration of the Reporting Period. The Company shall ensure that each Registration
Statement (including any amendments or supplements thereto and prospectuses contained therein) shall not contain any untrue statement
of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein (in the
case of prospectuses, in the light of the circumstances in which they were made) not misleading.
(ii) The
Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to a Registration Statement
and the prospectus used in connection with such Registration Statement, which prospectus is to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated
under the Securities Act, as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective at all times during the Reporting Period,
and, during such period, comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities
of the Company covered by such Registration Statement until such time as all of such Registrable Securities shall have been disposed of
in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof as set forth in such Registration Statement.
(iii) Upon
request of the Purchaser, the Company shall furnish to Purchaser without charge, (i) promptly after the Registration Statement including
such Purchaser’s Registrable Securities is prepared and filed with the SEC, at least one copy of such Registration Statement and
any amendment(s) thereto, including financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated therein by reference, and if requested
by the Purchaser, all exhibits and each preliminary prospectus, (ii) upon the effectiveness of any Registration Statement, ten (10) copies
of the prospectus included in such Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto (or such other number of copies as
the Purchaser may reasonably request) and (iii) such other documents, including copies of any preliminary or final prospectus, as
the Purchaser may reasonably request from time to time in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities.
(iv) The
Company shall notify the Purchaser in writing of the happening of any event, as promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event,
as a result of which the prospectus included in a Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material
fact or omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (provided that in no event shall such notice contain any material, nonpublic
information), and promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to such Registration Statement to correct such untrue statement or omission,
and upon request deliver ten (10) copies of such supplement or amendment to the Purchaser (or such other number of copies as the
Purchaser may reasonably request). Unless such information is publicly available, the Company shall also promptly notify the Purchaser
in writing (a) when a prospectus or any prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and when a Registration
Statement or any post-effective amendment has become effective (notification of such effectiveness shall be delivered to the Purchaser
by electronic mail on the same day of such effectiveness), (b) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to a Registration
Statement or related prospectus or related information, and (c) of the Company’s reasonable determination that a post-effective
amendment to a Registration Statement would be appropriate.
(v) The
Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of a
Registration Statement, or the suspension of the qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction and,
if such an order or suspension is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order or suspension at the earliest possible moment and to
notify the Purchaser who holds Registrable Securities being sold of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof or its receipt
of notice of the initiation or threat of any proceeding for such purpose.
(vi) If
the Purchaser is required under applicable securities law to be described in the Registration Statement as an underwriter, at the reasonable
request of the Purchaser, the Company shall furnish to the Purchaser, on the date of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and
thereafter from time to time on such dates as the Purchaser may reasonably request, (a) a letter, dated such date, from the Company’s
independent certified public accountants in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to
underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the Purchaser, and (b) an opinion, dated as of such date, of counsel
representing the Company for purposes of such Registration Statement, in form, scope and substance as is customarily given in an underwritten
public offering, addressed to the Purchaser.
(vii) If
a Purchaser is required under applicable securities law to be described in the Registration Statement as an underwriter, upon the written
request of the Purchaser in connection with the Purchaser’s due diligence requirements, if any, the Company shall make available
for inspection by (a) the Purchaser and its legal counsel and (b) one (1) firm of accountants or other agents retained
by the Purchaser (collectively, the “Inspectors”), all pertinent financial and other records, and pertinent
corporate documents and properties of the Company (collectively, the “Records”), as shall be reasonably deemed
necessary by each Inspector solely for the purpose of establishing a due diligence defense under underwriter liability under the Securities
Act, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information which any Inspector may reasonably request;
provided, however, that each Inspector shall agree to hold in strict confidence and shall not make any disclosure (except
to the Purchaser) or use of any Record or other information which the Company determines in good faith to be confidential, and of which
determination the Inspectors are so notified, unless (X) the disclosure of such Records is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement
or omission in any Registration Statement or is otherwise required under the Securities Act, (Y) the release of such Records is ordered
pursuant to a final, non-appealable subpoena or order from a court or government body of competent jurisdiction, or (Z) the information
in such Records has been made generally available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this Agreement or any other agreement.
The Purchaser agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such Records is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent
jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt notice to the Company and allow the Company, at its expense, to undertake appropriate
action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order preventing disclosure of, the Records deemed confidential. Nothing herein
(or in any other confidentiality agreement between the Company and the Purchaser) shall be deemed to limit the Purchaser’s ability
to sell Registrable Securities in a manner which is otherwise consistent with applicable laws.
(viii) The
Company shall cooperate with the Purchaser and, to the extent applicable, facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates
(not bearing any restrictive legend) representing the Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to a Registration Statement and enable
such certificates to be in such denominations or amounts, as the case may be, as the Purchaser may reasonably request and registered in
such names as the Purchaser may request.
(ix) If
requested by the Purchaser, the Company shall, as soon as practicable, (a) incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective
amendment such information as the Purchaser reasonably requests to be included therein relating to the sale and distribution of Registrable
Securities, including, without limitation, information with respect to the number of Registrable Securities being offered or sold, the
purchase price being paid therefor and any other terms of the offering of the Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering; (b) make
all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment after being notified of the matters to be incorporated
in such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment; and (c) supplement or make amendments to any Registration Statement if
reasonably requested by the Purchaser.
(x) The
Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement to be registered
with or approved by such other state governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to consummate the disposition of such Registrable
Securities.
(xi) The
Company shall otherwise use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC in connection
with any registration hereunder.
(xii) Within
two (2) Business Days after a Registration Statement that covers Registrable Securities is declared effective by the SEC, the Company
shall deliver to the transfer agent for such Registrable Securities (with copies to the Purchaser) confirmation that such Registration
Statement has been declared effective by the SEC.
(xiii) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, at any time after the Registration Effective Date, the Company may delay the disclosure of material,
non-public information concerning the Company the disclosure of which at the time is not, in the good faith opinion of the Board of Directors
and its counsel, in the best interest of the Company and, in the opinion of outside counsel to the Company, otherwise required (a “Grace
Period”); provided, that the Company shall promptly (a) notify the Purchaser in writing of the existence of
material, non-public information giving rise to a Grace Period (provided that in each notice the Company will not disclose the
content of such material, non-public information to the Purchaser or subject the Purchaser to any duty of confidentiality) and the date
on which the Grace Period will begin, and (b) notify the Purchaser in writing of the date on which the Grace Period ends (provided
that in each notice the Company will not disclose the content of such material, non-public information to the Purchaser or subject the
Purchaser to any duty of confidentiality); and, provided further, that there shall be no more than two (2) Grace Periods in
any three hundred and sixty-five (365) day period and each such Grace Periods shall not exceed an aggregate of thirty (30) consecutive
Business Days during any three hundred and sixty-five (365) day period and the first day of any Grace Period must be at least fifteen
(15) days after the last day of any prior Grace Period (each, an “Allowable Grace Period”). For purposes of
determining the length of a Grace Period above, the Grace Period shall begin on and include the date the Purchaser receive the notice
referred to in clause (a) and shall end on and include the later of the date the Purchaser receive the notice referred to in clause
(b) and the date referred to in such notice. The provisions of Section 7(d)(v) hereof shall not be applicable during
the period of any Allowable Grace Period. Upon expiration of the Grace Period, the Company shall again be bound by the first sentence
of Section 7(d)(iv) with respect to the information giving rise thereto unless such material, non-public information
is no longer applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to deliver unlegended shares
of Common Stock to a transferee of Purchaser in accordance with the terms of this Agreement in connection with any sale of Registrable
Securities with respect to which Purchaser has entered into a contract for sale, and delivered a copy of the prospectus included as part
of the applicable Registration Statement (unless an exemption from such prospectus delivery requirement exists), prior to the Purchaser’s
receipt of the notice of a Grace Period and for which the Purchaser has not yet settled.
(xiv) Neither
the Company nor any subsidiary or affiliate of the Company thereof shall identify the Purchaser as an underwriter in any public disclosure
or filing with the SEC or any applicable Trading Market without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, and the Purchaser being deemed
an underwriter by the SEC shall not relieve the Company of any obligations it has under this Agreement.
(e) Indemnification
by the Company. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser, the officers, directors, members, partners, agents, investment
advisors and 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 each of them, each Person who controls the Purchaser (within the meaning of Section 15 of the
Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and the officers, directors, members, stockholders, partners, agents and 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 each such controlling Person, 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 (collectively, “Losses”),
as incurred, arising out of or relating to (1) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a 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 light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading
or (2) 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 with the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent,
but only to the extent, that (i) such untrue statements or omissions are based solely upon information regarding the Purchaser furnished
in writing to the Company by the Purchaser expressly for use therein, or to the extent that such information relates to the Purchaser
or the Purchaser’s proposed method of distribution of Registrable Securities and was reviewed and expressly approved in writing
by the Purchaser expressly for use in a Registration Statement, such Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto (it being understood
that the Purchaser has approved Exhibit A hereto for this purpose) or (ii) the use by the Purchaser of an outdated, defective
or otherwise unavailable Prospectus after the Company has notified the Purchaser in writing that the Prospectus is outdated, defective
or otherwise unavailable for use by the Purchaser. The Company shall notify the Purchaser promptly of the institution, threat or assertion
of any Proceeding arising from or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement of which the Company is aware. Such
indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such indemnified person and shall
survive the transfer of any Registrable Securities by the Purchaser.
(f) Indemnification
by Purchaser. The Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers, agents and employees, each Person
who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses, as incurred, to the extent arising out of or based solely upon:
any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any 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
light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading (i) to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue
statement or omission is contained in any information so furnished in writing by the Purchaser to the Company expressly for inclusion
in such Registration Statement or such prospectus or (ii) to the extent, but only to the extent, that such information relates to
the Purchaser’s information provided to the Company for inclusion in the Registration Statement and was reviewed and expressly approved
in writing by the Purchaser expressly for use in a Registration Statement (it being understood that the Purchaser has approved Exhibit A
hereto for this purpose), such prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto. In no event shall the liability of Purchaser be greater
in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds (net of all expenses paid by the Purchaser in connection with any claim relating to this
Section 7(f) and the amount of any damages the Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue
statement or omission) received by the Purchaser upon the sale of the Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement giving
rise to such indemnification obligation.
(g) Conduct
of Indemnification Proceedings. If any Proceeding shall be brought or asserted against any Person entitled to indemnity hereunder
(an “Indemnified Party”), such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Person from whom indemnity is sought
(the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing, and the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense
thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the payment of all fees and expenses
incurred in connection with defense thereof, provided that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give such notice shall not relieve
the Indemnifying Party of its obligations or liabilities pursuant to this Agreement, except (and only) to the extent that it shall be
finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (which determination is not subject to appeal or further review) that such failure
shall have materially and adversely prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.
(i) An
Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but
the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party(ies) unless: (1) the Indemnifying Party has
agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses, (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such
Proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding, or (3) the named parties
to any such Proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and counsel to
the Indemnified Party shall reasonably believe that a material conflict of interest is likely to exist if the same counsel were to represent
such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (in which case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing
that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to
assume the defense thereof and the reasonable fees and expenses of no more than one separate counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying
Party). The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any such Proceeding effected without its written consent, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified
Party, effect any settlement of any pending Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is a party, unless such settlement includes
an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding.
(ii) Subject
to the terms of this Agreement, all reasonable fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party (including reasonable fees and expenses to the
extent incurred in connection with investigating or preparing to defend such Proceeding in a manner not inconsistent with this Section)
shall be paid to the Indemnified Party, as incurred, within ten (10) Business Days of written notice thereof to the Indemnifying
Party, provided that the Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnifying Party for that portion of such fees and expenses
applicable to such actions for which such Indemnified Party is finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (which determination
is not subject to appeal or further review) not to be entitled to indemnification hereunder.
(h) Contribution.
If the indemnification under Sections 7(e) or 7(f) is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or insufficient to hold an
Indemnified Party harmless for any Losses, then each Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified
Party, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection
with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative
fault of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in
question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a material fact, has
been taken or made by, or relates to information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties’ relative
intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action, statement or omission. The amount paid or
payable by a party as a result of any Losses shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, any reasonable
attorneys’ or other fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any Proceeding to the extent such party would have
been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for in this Section 7(h) was available to such party
in accordance with its terms. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7(h) were
determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred
to in the immediately preceding paragraph. In no event shall the contribution obligation of a Purchaser of Registrable Securities be greater
in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds received by it upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such contribution
obligation. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section 7(h) are in addition to any liability that the
Indemnifying Parties may have to the Indemnified Parties.
(i) For
purposes of this Section 7 of this Agreement, “Purchaser” shall include any person to which the rights under this Section 7
shall have been duly assigned.
(j) Preservation
of Rights. During the period between the Closing Date and the Registration Effective Date, the Company shall not (a) grant any
registration rights to third parties which are more favorable than or inconsistent with the rights granted hereunder, or (b) enter
into any agreement, take any action, or permit any change to occur, with respect to its securities that violates or subordinates the rights
expressly granted to the holders of Registrable Securities in this Agreement.

(g) Amendments;
Waivers; No Additional Consideration. No provision of this Agreement may be waived, modified, supplemented or amended except in a
written instrument signed, in the case of an amendment, by the Company and the Purchaser or, in the case of a waiver, by the party against

in this Agreement so long as this Agreement as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the
parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question
does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the
benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties. The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited,
invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited,
