(b)
“Beneficial Owner” shall mean the Person who Beneficially Owns the referenced securities.

default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration, or cancellation of, or result in the creation of
any lien on any of the Shares pursuant to, any agreement or other instrument or obligation (including organizational documents) binding

rights of any class of shares of the Company (including any amendments to the Company Certificate of Incorporation.

taken by a Stockholder in such Stockholder’s capacity as a director or officer of the Company, including in exercising rights under

of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability
shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other
jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the Parties shall negotiate

manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.
(e)
Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original
but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. A signed copy of this Agreement delivered by facsimile, email,

Interpretation. The section headings herein are for convenience of reference only, do not constitute part of this Agreement,

such reference shall be to a section of this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. Whenever the words “include,” “includes,”
or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.”
As used herein, the word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” means the degree to which a subject or other thing
extends, and does not simply mean “if,” and the word “or” is not exclusive. The definitions of terms defined herein,
or defined in the CSI APA and incorporated herein, shall apply equally to the singular and plural forms of such terms. The words “hereof,”
“herein,” “hereby,” “hereto,” and “hereunder,” and words of similar import, when used
in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement.
(g)
Assignment. No Party may assign any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent
of the other Parties. This Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by the Parties and their respective
successors and permitted assigns. Any assignment contrary to the provisions of this Section
12(g) shall be null and void.
(h)
Third-Party Beneficiaries. Target is an express third-party beneficiary under this Agreement as a result of the benefits
expected to accrue to Target as a result of the approval of the CSI Transaction by the stockholders of Company. Nothing in this Agreement,
express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any Person, other than the Parties, Target, and their respective successors and
permitted assigns, any legal or equitable right, benefit, or remedy of any nature under or by reason of this Agreement.
