On
November 29, 2024, ESHALLGO INC (the “Company”) entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Securities
Purchase Agreement”) with an accredited investor (the “Debenture Holder”) to place Convertible Debentures (the “Debentures,”
each, a “Debenture”) with a maturity date (the “Maturity Date”) of November 28, 2025, which is 364 days after
the issuance of the first Debenture, in the aggregate principal amount of up to $5,000,000 at a purchase price equal to 95% of the principal
amount (the “Transaction”), provided that in case of an event of default, the Debentures may become, at the Debenture Holder’s
election, immediately due and payable. The Debentures bear an interest rate of 5% per annum which shall be increased to 18% per annum
in the event of default. Pursuant to the securities purchase agreement, the Debentures will be issued in a private placement pursuant
to an exemption from the registration requirements pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and/or Regulation
D thereunder.
The
Company also entered into a registration rights agrement (the “Registration Rights Agrement”), date November 29, 2024,
pursuant to which the Company agreed to register for resale the Class A ordinary shares issuable pursuant to the Debentures with the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) within 21 days from the date of the Registration Rights Agrement.
The
initial closing of the Transaction occurred on November 29, 2024 when we issued a first Debenture for $1,500,000. The second closing
of a Debenture in the amount of $2,000,000 shall occur upon the filing of an initial registration statement (the “Registration Statement”)
with the SEC registering the resale of the Class A ordinary shares upon conversion of the Debentures by the Debenture Holder. The third
closing of a Debenture in the amount of $1,500,000 shall occur upon effectiveness of the Registration Statement as declared by the SEC.
In
addition, the Company agreed to pay to the Debenture Holder (i) a commitment fee equal to 1% of the principal amount upon the effectiveness
of the Registration Statement, either in cash or by the issuance to the Debenture Holder of such number of Class A ordinary shares that
is equal to the commitment fee divided by the closing bid price of the Class A ordinary shares as of the date of the Securities Purchase
Agreement, and (ii) a one-time due diligence and structuring fee of $25,000 at the first closing.
During
the period from the issuance date of each Debenture and ending on the 50th calendar day after such issuance date, the Debenture Holder
may convert the Debenture in its sole discretion to Company’s Class A ordinary shares at $4.756. After 50 calendar days form the
issuance date and ending on the Maturity Date, the Debenture Holder may convert the Debenture in its sole discretion to Company’s
Class A ordinary shares at any time at the lower of $4.756 or 93% of the lowest daily VWAP for the Ordinary Shares during the 5 consecutive
trading days immediately preceding the conversion date, provided that the conversion price may not be less than $0.78954 (the “Floor
Price”). The Debenture Holder may not convert any portion of a Debenture if such conversion would result in the Debenture Holder
beneficially owning more than 4.99% of Company’s then issued and outstanding shares, provided that such limitation may be waived
by the Debenture Holder with 65 days’ prior written notice. Any time after the issuance of a Debenture that the daily VWAP is less
than the Floor Price for a period of 5 consecutive trading days in a period of 7 consecutive trading days or that a Registration
Default (as defined in the Debenture) occurs (the last such day of each such occurrence, an “Amortization Event”),
the Company shall make monthly payments beginning on the 10th trading day after the Amortization Event date and continuing on the same
day of each successive calendar month. Each monthly payment shall be in an amount equal to the sum of (i) $1,000,000 of the principal
or the outstanding principal if the principal is less than such amount plus, (ii) the payment premium of 10% in respect of such amount
in (i), and (iii) accrued and unpaid interest hereunder as of each payment date.
The
foregoing description of the Debentures, the Securities Purchase Agreement, and the Registration Rights Agrement is only a brief
description of the material terms of the transaction documents and does not purport to be a complete description of the rights and obligations
of the parties thereunder and such agreements are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of such documents, which are
attached as Exhibits 2.1, 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, to this report on Form 6-K.
This report shall not constitute an offer to sell
or a solicitation of an offer to purchase any securities, nor shall there be a sale of the securities in any state or jurisdiction in
which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.

hereby promises to pay to the order of [ ], or its registered assigns (the "Holder") the amount set out above as the
principal amount (as reduced or increased pursuant to the terms hereof pursuant to redemption, conversion or otherwise, the "Principal")
when due, whether upon the Maturity Date (as defined below), acceleration, redemption or otherwise (in each case in accordance with the
terms hereof) and to pay interest ("Interest") on any outstanding Principal at the applicable Interest Rate from the
date set out above as the Debenture Issuance Date (the "Issuance Date") until the same becomes due and payable, whether
upon the Maturity Date or acceleration, conversion, redemption or otherwise (in each case in accordance with the terms hereof). This Convertible
Debenture (including all debentures issued in exchange, transfer or replacement hereof, this "Debenture") was originally
issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of November 29, 2024, as it may be amended from time to time (the “Securities
Purchase Agreement”) between the Company and the Buyers listed on the Schedule of Buyers attached thereto. Certain capitalized
terms used herein are defined in Section (14).
(1) GENERAL
TERMS
(a) Maturity
Date. On the Maturity Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash representing all outstanding Principal, accrued
and unpaid Interest, and any other amounts outstanding pursuant to the terms of this Debenture. The "Maturity Date" shall
be November 28, 2025, as may be extended at the option of the Holder. Other than as specifically permitted by this Debenture, the
Company may not prepay or redeem any portion of the outstanding Principal and accrued and unpaid Interest.
(b) Interest
Rate and Payment of Interest. Interest shall accrue on the outstanding Principal balance hereof at an annual rate equal to 5.00% (“Interest
Rate”), which Interest Rate shall increase to an annual rate of 18.0% upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (for so long
as such event remains uncured). Interest shall be calculated based on a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed, to the extent
permitted by applicable law.
(c) Payment
Dates. Whenever any payment or other obligation hereunder shall be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made
on the next succeeding Business Day.
(2) PAYMENTS
(a) Monthly
Payments. If, any time after the Issuance Date set forth above, and from time to time thereafter, an Amortization Event occurs, then
the Company shall make monthly payments beginning on the 10th Trading Day after the Amortization Event Date, and in the case of a Floor
Price Event (as defined in Section 14(a)) the 30th calendar days after the Floor Price Event, and continuing on
the same day of each successive Calendar Month. Each monthly payment shall be in an amount equal to the sum of (i) $1,000,000 of
Principal (in the aggregate among this Debenture and all Other Debentures), or the outstanding Principal, if the Principal (in the aggregate
among this Debenture and all Other Debentures) is less than such amount (the “Amortization Principal Amount”), plus
(ii) the Payment Premium (as defined below) in respect of such Amortization Principal Amount, and (iii) accrued and unpaid interest
hereunder as of each payment date. The obligation of the Company to make monthly prepayments related to a Amortization Event shall cease
(with respect to any payment that has not yet come due) if any time after the Amortization Event Date (A) in the event of a Floor
Price Event, on the date that is the 5th consecutive Trading Day that the daily VWAP is greater than 110% of the Floor Price
then in effect, or (B) in the event of a Registration Event, the condition or event causing the Registration Event has been cured
or the Holder is able to resell the Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities
Act, unless a subsequent Amortization Event occurs. If this Debenture and any Other Debentures are held by more than one holder, then
the Amortization Principal Amount and Payment Premium in respect of such Amortization Principal Amount shall be allocated to each holder
based on each holder’s pro-rata portion of the total outstanding Principal amount outstanding on this Debenture and all Other Debentures.
If this Debenture and all Other Debentures are held by one holder, then such holder shall decide the allocation of payments between this
Debenture and all Other Debentures in its sole discretion.
(b) The
Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to redeem (“Optional Redemption”) early in cash a portion or
all amounts outstanding under this Debenture at the Redemption Amount (as defined below) as described in this Section; provided
that the Company provides the Holder with at least 10 Trading Days’ prior written notice (each, a “Redemption Notice”)
of its desire to exercise an Optional Redemption, which Redemption Notice (i) shall be delivered to the Holder after the closing
of regular trading hours on a Trading Day, and (ii) may only be given if the VWAP on the date such Redemption Notice is delivered
is less than the Fixed Price. Each Redemption Notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the outstanding balance of the Debentures
to be redeemed and the Redemption Amount. The “Redemption Amount” shall be an amount equal to the outstanding Principal
balance being redeemed by the Company, plus the Payment Premium in respect of such Principal amount, plus all accrued and unpaid interest
hereunder as of such redemption date. After receipt of a Redemption Notice, the Holder shall have ten (10) Trading Days (beginning
with the Trading Day immediately following the date of such Redemption Notice) to elect to convert all or any portion of the outstanding
Principal of the Debenture plus all accrued and unpaid Interest, if any, plus the Payment Premium, if any, in respect of such Principal.
On the eleventh (11th) Trading Day after the applicable Redemption Notice, the Company shall deliver to the Holder the Redemption
Amount with respect to the Principal amount redeemed to the extent not converted and otherwise after giving effect to conversions or other
payments made during the ten (10) Trading Day period.
(c) Other
than as specifically set forth in this Debenture, the Company shall not have the ability to make any early repayments without the consent
or at the request of the Holder.

(4) CONVERSION
OF DEBENTURE. This Debenture shall be convertible into Ordinary Shares, on the terms and conditions
set forth in this Section (4).
(a) Conversion
Right. Subject to the limitations of Section (4)(c), commencing 50 calendar days after the Issuance Date of Debenture, the Holder
shall be entitled to convert any portion of the outstanding and unpaid Conversion Amount (as defined below) into fully paid and nonassessable
Ordinary Shares in accordance with Section (4)(b), at the Conversion Price (as defined below) provided however notwithstanding the
forgoing, subject to the limitations of Section (4)(c), at any time or times on or after the Issuance Date and ending on the 50 calendar
days after the Issuance Date the Holder shall only be entitled to convert any portion of the outstanding and unpaid Conversion Amount
(as defined below) into fully paid and nonassessable Ordinary Shares in accordance with Section (4)(b), at the Fixed Price (as defined
below). The number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of any Conversion Amount pursuant to this Section (4)(a) shall
be determined by dividing (x) such Conversion Amount by (y) the Conversion Price. The Company shall not issue any fraction of
an Ordinary Share upon any conversion. All calculations under this Section (4) shall be rounded to the nearest $0.0001. If the
issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of an Ordinary Share, the Company shall round such fraction of an Ordinary Share up
to the nearest whole share. The Company shall pay any and all transfer, stamp and similar taxes that may be payable with respect to the
issuance and delivery of Ordinary Shares upon conversion of any Conversion Amount.
(i) "Conversion
Amount" means the portion of the Principal and accrued Interest to be converted, redeemed or otherwise with respect to which
this determination is being made.
(ii) "Conversion
Price" means, as of any Conversion Date (as defined below) or other date of determination the lower of (i) $4.756
per Ordinary Shares (the “Fixed Price”), or (ii) 93% of the lowest daily VWAP for the Ordinary Shares during the
5 consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding the Conversion Date or other date of determination (the “Market Price”),
but which Market Price shall not be lower than the Floor Price then in effect. The Conversion Price shall be adjusted from time to time
pursuant to the other terms and conditions of this Debenture.
(b) Mechanics
of Conversion.
(i) Optional
Conversion. To convert any Conversion Amount into Ordinary Shares on any date (a "Conversion Date"), the Holder
shall (A) transmit by email (or otherwise deliver), for receipt on or prior to 11:59 p.m., New York time, on such date, a copy of
an executed notice of conversion in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I (the "Conversion Notice") to the
Company and (B) if required by Section (4)(b)(iii), surrender this Debenture to a nationally recognized overnight delivery service
for delivery to the Company (or an indemnification undertaking reasonably satisfactory to the Company with respect to this Debenture in
the case of its loss, theft or destruction). On or before the first (1st) Trading Day following the date of receipt of a Conversion
Notice (or such earlier date as required pursuant to the Exchange Act or other applicable law, rule or regulation for the settlement
of a trade initiated on the applicable Conversion Date of such Ordinary Shares issuable pursuant to such Conversion Notice) (the "Share
Delivery Date"), the Company shall (X) if legends are not required to be placed on certificates or the book-entry position
of the Ordinary Shares and provided that the Company’s transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company's ("DTC")
Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, instruct such transfer agent to credit such aggregate number of Ordinary Shares to which the
Holder shall be entitled to the Holder's or its designee's balance account with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system
or (Y) if the Company’s transfer agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, or if restrictive
legends are required to be placed on certificates or book-entry positions of the Ordinary Shares, issue and deliver to the address as
specified in the Conversion Notice, a certificate or book-entry position, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the
number of Ordinary Shares to which the Holder shall be entitled. If this Debenture is physically surrendered for conversion and the outstanding
Principal of this Debenture is greater than the Principal portion of the Conversion Amount being converted, then the Company shall as
soon as practicable and in no event later than three (3) Business Days after receipt of this Debenture and at its own expense, issue
and deliver to the holder a new Debenture representing the outstanding Principal not converted. The Person or Persons entitled to receive
the Ordinary Shares issuable upon a conversion of this Debenture shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of
such Ordinary Shares upon the transmission of a Conversion Notice.
(ii) Company's
Failure to Timely Convert. If the Company shall fail, for any reason or for no reason, on or prior to the applicable Share Delivery
Date to issue and deliver a certificate to the Holder or credit the Holder's balance account with DTC for the number of Ordinary Shares
to which the Holder is entitled upon such Holder's conversion of any Conversion Amount (a "Conversion Failure"),
and if on or after such Trading Day the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) Ordinary Shares to deliver in satisfaction
of a sale by the Holder of Ordinary Shares issuable upon such conversion that the Holder anticipated receiving from the Company (a "Buy-In"),
then the Company shall, within three (3) Business Days after the Holder's request and in the Holder's discretion, either (i) pay
cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder's total purchase price (including brokerage commissions and other out of pocket expenses,
if any) for the Ordinary Shares so purchased (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company's obligation to deliver
such certificate (and to issue such Ordinary Shares) shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Holder
a certificate or certificates representing such Ordinary Shares and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of
the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of Ordinary Shares, times (B) the Closing Price on the Conversion Date.
(iii) Book-Entry.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of any portion of this Debenture in accordance with the terms
hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Debenture to the Company unless (A) the full Conversion Amount
represented by this Debenture is being converted or (B) the Holder has provided the Company with prior written notice (which notice
may be included in a Conversion Notice) requesting reissuance of this Debenture upon physical surrender of this Debenture. The Holder
and the Company shall maintain records showing the Principal and Interest converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such
other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Company, so as not to require physical surrender of this Debenture upon any
partial conversion.
(c) Limitations
on Conversions.
(i) Beneficial
Ownership. The Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Debenture to the extent that after giving effect to
such conversion, the Holder, together with any affiliate thereof, would beneficially own (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of
the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of 4.99% of the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately
after giving effect to such conversion. The Holder shall have the authority and obligation to determine whether the restriction contained
in this Section will limit any particular conversion hereunder and to the extent that the Holder determines that the limitation contained
in this Section applies, the determination of which portion of the Principal amount of this Debenture is convertible shall be the
responsibility and obligation of the Holder. The provisions of this Section may be waived by a holder (but only as to itself and
not to any other holder) upon not less than 65 days’ prior notice to the Company. Other holders shall be unaffected by any such
waiver.
(ii) Principal
Market Limitation.
(d) Other
Provisions.
(i) All
calculations under this Section (4) shall be rounded to the nearest $0.0001 or whole share.
(ii) The
Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Ordinary Shares such number
of Ordinary Shares not less than the maximum number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of this Debenture and the Other Debentures
(assuming for purposes hereof that (x) this Debenture and such Other Debentures are convertible at the Floor Price as of the date
of determination, (y) any such conversion shall not take into account any limitations on the conversion of the Debenture or Other
Debentures set forth herein or therein (the “Required Reserve Amount”), provided that at no time shall the number of
Ordinary Shares reserved pursuant to this Section (4)(d)(ii) be reduced other than proportionally with respect to all Ordinary
Shares in connection with any conversion (other than pursuant to the conversion of this Debenture and the Other Debentures in accordance
with their terms) and/or cancellation, or reverse share split. If at any time the number of Ordinary Shares reserved pursuant to this
Section (4)(d)(ii) becomes less than the Required Reserve Amount, the Company will promptly take all corporate action necessary
to propose to its general meeting of shareholders an increase of its authorized share capital necessary to meet the Company's obligations
pursuant to this Debenture, recommending that shareholders vote in favor of such an increase. The Company covenants that, upon issuance
in accordance with conversion of this Debenture in accordance with its terms, the Ordinary Shares, when issued, will be validly issued,
fully paid and nonassessable.
(iii) Nothing
herein shall limit a Holder's right to pursue actual damages or declare an Event of Default pursuant to Section (3) herein for
the Company’s failure to deliver certificates representing Ordinary Shares upon conversion within the period specified herein and
such Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of
specific performance and/or injunctive relief, in each case without the need to post a bond or provide other security. The exercise of
any such rights shall not prohibit the Holder from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or under applicable
law.
(iv) Legal
Opinions. The Company is obligated to cause its legal counsel to deliver legal opinions to the Company’s transfer agent in connection
with any legend removal upon the expiration of any holding period or other requirement for which the Underlying Shares may bear legends
restricting the transfer thereof. To the extent such opinions are not provided (either timely or at all), then, in addition to being an

(5) Adjustments
to Conversion Price
(a) Adjustment
of Conversion Price upon Subdivision or Combination of Ordinary Shares. If the Company, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding,
shall (a) pay a share dividend or otherwise make a distribution or distributions on its Ordinary Shares or any other equity or equity
equivalent securities payable in Ordinary Shares, (b) subdivide outstanding Ordinary Shares into a larger number of shares, (c) combine
(including by way of reverse share split) outstanding Ordinary Shares into a smaller number of shares, or (d) issue by reclassification
of the Ordinary Shares any shares of the Company, then each of the Fixed Price and the Floor Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of
which the numerator shall be the number of Ordinary Shares (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding before such event and of which
the denominator shall be the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 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) Adjustment
of Conversion Price upon Issuance of Ordinary Shares. If the Company, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding, issues or sells
any Ordinary Shares or Convertible Securities (other than shares issued or sold by the Company in connection with any Excluded Securities),
for a consideration per share (the “New Issuance Price”) less than a price equal to the Fixed Price in effect immediately
prior to such issue or sale (such price the "Applicable Price") (the foregoing a "Dilutive Issuance"),
then immediately after such Dilutive Issuance the Fixed Price then in effect shall be reduced to an amount equal to the New Issuance Price.
For the purposes hereof, if the Company in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities (other than shares issued or sold by
the Company in connection with any Excluded Securities) and the lowest price per share for which one Ordinary Shares is issuable upon
such conversion or exchange or exercise thereof is less than the Applicable Price, then such Ordinary Shares shall be deemed to be outstanding
and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities for such price per
share. No further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such Ordinary Shares upon conversion or
exchange or exercise of such Convertible Securities.
(c) Other
Events. If any event occurs of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section (5) but not expressly provided for
by such provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with
equity features, or issuing Convertible Securities with a variable conversion formula that is more favorable than this Debenture), then
the Company's board of directors will make an appropriate adjustment in the Conversion Price so as to protect the rights of the Holder
under this Debenture; provided that no such adjustment will increase the Conversion Price as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section (5).
If the Company issues any Convertible Securities with a variable conversion formula that is more favorable than this Debenture, then at
the option of the Holder, the Market Price formula shall be changed to match that of the new Convertible Securities.
(d) Other
Corporate Events. In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the consummation of any Fundamental
Transaction pursuant to which holders of Ordinary Shares are entitled to receive securities or other assets with respect to or in exchange
for Ordinary Shares (a "Corporate Event"), the Company shall make appropriate provision to ensure that the Holder will
thereafter have the right to receive upon a conversion of this Debenture, at the Holder's option, (i) in addition to the Ordinary
Shares receivable upon such conversion, such securities or other assets to which the Holder would have been entitled with respect to such
Ordinary Shares had such Ordinary Shares been held by the Holder upon the consummation of such Corporate Event (without taking into account
any limitations or restrictions on the convertibility of this Debenture) or (ii) in lieu of the Ordinary Shares otherwise receivable
upon such conversion, such securities or other assets received by the holders of Ordinary Shares in connection with the consummation of
such Corporate Event in such amounts as the Holder would have been entitled to receive had this Debenture initially been issued with conversion
rights for the form of such consideration (as opposed to Ordinary Shares) at a conversion rate for such consideration commensurate with
the Conversion Price. Provision made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be in a form and substance satisfactory to the Required
Holders. The provisions of this Section shall apply similarly and equally to successive Corporate Events and shall be applied without
regard to any limitations on the conversion or redemption of this Debenture.
(e) Whenever
the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to Section (5) hereof, the Company shall promptly provide the Holder with a written
notice setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.
(f) In
case of any (1) merger or consolidation of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company with or into another Person, or (2) sale
by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company of more than one-half of the assets of the Company in one or a series of related transactions,
a Holder shall have the right to (A) exercise any rights under Section (5)(b), (B) convert the aggregate amount of this
Debenture then outstanding into the shares and other securities, cash and property receivable upon or deemed to be held by holders of
Ordinary Shares following such merger, consolidation or sale, and such Holder shall be entitled upon such event or series of related events
to receive such amount of securities, cash and property as the Ordinary Shares into which such aggregate Principal amount of this Debenture
could have been converted immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or sales would have been entitled, or (C) in the case of
a merger or consolidation, require the surviving entity to issue to the Holder a convertible debenture with a Principal amount equal to
the aggregate Principal amount of this Debenture then held by such Holder, plus all accrued and unpaid Interest and other amounts owing
thereon, which such newly issued convertible debenture shall have terms identical (including with respect to conversion) to the terms
of this Debenture, and shall be entitled to all of the rights and privileges of the Holder of this Debenture set forth herein and the
agreements pursuant to which this Debenture was issued. In the case of clause (C), the conversion price applicable for the newly issued
convertible debentures shall be based upon the amount of securities, cash and property that each Ordinary Shares would receive in such
transaction and the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the effectiveness or closing date for such transaction. The terms
of any such merger, sale or consolidation shall include such terms so as to continue to give the Holder the right to receive the securities,
cash and property set forth in this Section upon any conversion or redemption following such event. This provision shall similarly
apply to successive such events.
(6) REISSUANCE
OF THIS DEBENTURE.
(a) Transfer.

other Transaction Document, or any contemplated transaction, shall be brought in a court only in the Governing Jurisdiction. The Company
shall not file any counterclaim against the Holder in any suit, claim, action, litigation or proceeding brought by the Holder against
the Company in a jurisdiction outside of the Governing Jurisdiction unless under the rules of the court in which the Holder brought
such suit, claim, action, litigation or proceeding the counterclaim is mandatory, and not permissive, and would be considered waived unless
filed as a counterclaim in the suit, claim, action, litigation or proceeding instituted by the Holder against the Company. The Company
agrees that any forum outside the Governing Jurisdiction is an inconvenient forum and that any suit, claim, action, litigation or proceeding
brought by the Company against the Holder in any court outside the Governing Jurisdiction should be dismissed or transferred to a court

or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by

waiver by the Holder of a breach of any provision of this Debenture shall not operate as or be construed to be a waiver of any other breach
of such provision or of any breach of any other provision of this Debenture. The failure of the Holder to insist upon strict adherence
to any term of this Debenture on one or more occasions shall not be considered a waiver or deprive that party of the right thereafter

provision is inapplicable to any person or circumstance, it shall nevertheless remain applicable to all other persons and circumstances.

| 2. | BUYER’S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. |
Each Buyer, severally and
not jointly, represents and warrants to the Company with respect to only itself that, as of the date hereof and as of each Closing Date:
(a) Investment
Purpose. The Buyer is acquiring the Securities for its own account for investment purposes and not with a view towards, or for resale
in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof, except pursuant to sales registered under or exempt from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act; provided, however, that by making the representations herein, such Buyer does not agree, or make any
representation or warranty, to hold any of the Securities for any minimum or other specific term and reserves the right to dispose of
the Securities at any time in accordance with, or pursuant to, a registration statement covering such Securities or an available exemption
under the Securities Act. Such Buyer does not presently have any agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any Person (as
defined below) to distribute any of the Securities in violation of applicable securities laws. As used herein, “Person” means
a corporation, a limited liability company, an association, a partnership, an organization, a business, an individual, a governmental
or political subdivision thereof or a governmental agency
(b) Accredited
Investor Status. The Buyer is an “Accredited Investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501(a)(3) of Regulation
D.
(c) Reliance
on Exemptions. The Buyer understands that the Securities are being offered and sold to it in reliance on specific exemptions from
the registration requirements of United States federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying in part upon the truth
and accuracy of, and such Buyer’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings
of such Buyer set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of such Buyer to acquire
the Securities.
(d) Information.
The Buyer and its advisors (and its counsel), if any, have been furnished with all materials relating to the business, finances and operations
of the Company and information the Buyer deemed material to making an informed investment decision regarding its purchase of the Securities,
which have been requested by such Buyer. The Buyer and its advisors, if any, have been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the
Company and its management. Neither such inquiries nor any other due diligence investigations conducted by such Buyer or its advisors,
if any, or its representatives shall modify, amend or affect such Buyer’s right to rely on the Company’s representations and
warranties contained in Section 3 below. The Buyer understands that its investment in the Securities involves a high degree of risk.
The Buyer has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice, as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision with
respect to its acquisition of the Securities.
(e) Transfer
or Resale. The Buyer understands that: (i) the Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities
laws, and may not be offered for sale, sold, assigned or transferred unless (A) subsequently registered thereunder, (B) such
Buyer shall have delivered to the Company an opinion of counsel, in a generally acceptable form, to the effect that such Securities to
be sold, assigned or transferred may be sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration requirements, or
(C) such Buyer provides the Company with reasonable assurances (in the form of seller and broker representation letters) that such
Securities can be sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, as amended (or a successor
rule thereto) (collectively, “Rule 144”), in each case following the applicable holding period set forth therein;
and (ii) any sale of the Securities made in reliance on Rule 144 may be made only in accordance with the terms of Rule 144
and further, if Rule 144 is not applicable, any resale of the Securities under circumstances in which the seller (or the Person
through whom the sale is made) may be deemed to be an underwriter (as that term is defined in the Securities Act) may require compliance
with some other exemption under the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Securities may be pledged in connection with a bona fide margin account or other loan or financing arrangement secured by the Securities
and such pledge of Securities shall not be deemed to be a transfer, sale or assignment of the Securities hereunder, and no Buyer effecting
a pledge of Securities shall be required to provide the Company with any notice thereof or otherwise make any delivery to the Company
pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, including, without limitation, this Section 2(e).
(f) Legends.
The Buyer agrees to the imprinting, so long as it is required by this Section 2(f), of a restrictive legend on the Securities in
substantially the following form:
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE
AND THOSE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THEY ARE CONVERTIBLE] HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE
STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES [AND THOSE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THEY ARE CONVERTIBLE] HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED SOLELY FOR INVESTMENT
PURPOSES AND NOT WITH A VIEW TOWARD RESALE AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE
REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR AN OPINION
OF COUNSEL, IN A GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.
NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING
ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.
Certificates evidencing the Conversion Shares
shall not contain any legend (including the legend set forth above), (i) while a registration statement covering the resale of such
security is effective under the Securities Act, (ii) following any sale of such Conversion Shares pursuant to Rule 144, (iii) if
such Conversion Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144, or (iv) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements
of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the SEC). If a legend is not required
pursuant to the foregoing, the Company shall no later than two (2) Trading Days (or such earlier date as required pursuant to the
Exchange Act (as defined below) or other applicable law, rule or regulation for the settlement of a trade initiated on the date such
Buyer delivers such legended certificate representing such securities to the Company) following the delivery by a Buyer to the Company
or the transfer agent (with notice to the Company) of a legended certificate representing such securities (endorsed or with stock powers
attached, and otherwise in form necessary to affect the reissuance and/or transfer, if applicable), together with any other deliveries
from such Buyer as may be required above in this Section 2(f), as directed by such Buyer, either: (A) provided that the Company’s
transfer agent is participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, credit the aggregate number of Class A Ordinary
Shares to which such Buyer shall be entitled to such Buyer’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal
at Custodian system or (B) if the Company’s transfer agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer
Program, issue and deliver (via reputable overnight courier) to such Buyer, a certificate representing such securities that is free from
all restrictive and other legends, registered in the name of such Buyer or its designee. The Company shall be responsible for any transfer
agent fees or DTC fees with respect to any issuance of Securities or the removal of any legends with respect to any Securities in accordance
herewith. The Buyer agrees that the removal of a restrictive legend from certificates representing Securities as set forth in this Section 2(f) is
predicated upon the Company’s reliance that the Buyer will sell any Securities pursuant to either the registration requirements
of the Securities Act, including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements, or an exemption therefrom, and that if Securities are
sold pursuant to a registration statement, they will be sold in compliance with the plan of distribution set forth therein.
(g) Organization;
Authority. Such Buyer is an entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization
with the requisite power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents to which
it is a party and otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder and thereunder.
(h) Authorization,
Enforcement. The Transaction Documents to which each such Buyer is a party have been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered
on behalf of such Buyer and shall constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of such Buyer enforceable against such Buyer in
accordance with their terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity or to applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation and other similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable
creditors' rights and remedies.
(i) No
Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance by such Buyer of this Agreement and the consummation by such Buyer of the transactions
contemplated hereby will not (i) result in a violation of the organizational documents of such Buyer, (ii) conflict with, or
constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights
of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which such Buyer is a party or (iii) result
in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws) applicable to such
Buyer, except, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, for such conflicts, defaults, rights or violations which could not,
individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of such Buyer to perform its
obligations hereunder.
(j) Certain
Trading Activities. The Buyer has not directly or indirectly, nor has any Person acting on behalf of or pursuant to any understanding
with the Buyer, engaged in any transactions in the securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any Short Sales (as defined
below) involving the Company's securities) during the period commencing as of the time that the Buyer first contacted the Company or the
Company's agents regarding the specific investment in the Company contemplated by this Agreement and ending immediately prior to the execution
of this Agreement by such Buyer.
(k) No
General Solicitation. The Buyer is not purchasing or acquiring the Securities as a result of any general solicitation or general advertising
(within the meaning of Regulation D) in connection with the offer or sale of the Securities.
(l) Not
an Affiliate. The Buyer is not (i) an officer or director of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) an “affiliate”

Effect” means any material adverse effect on (i) the business, properties, assets, liabilities, operations (including results

from obtaining or effecting any of the registration, application or filings contemplated by the Transaction Documents. The Company is
not in violation of the requirements of the Principal Market and has no knowledge of any facts or circumstances which could reasonably
lead to delisting or suspension of the Class A Ordinary Shares in the foreseeable future. The Company has notified the Principal

or any other Person or Governmental Entity, and the Principal Market has completed its review of the related Listing of Additional Shares

(f) Acknowledgment
Regarding Buyer's Purchase of Securities. The Company acknowledges and agrees that each Buyer 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 and that no Buyer

of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or (iii) to its knowledge, a “beneficial owner” of more than 10% of the Class A
Ordinary Shares (as defined for purposes of Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act). The Company further acknowledges that no Buyer (nor
any affiliate of any Buyer) is acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (or in any similar
capacity) with respect to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and any advice given by a Buyer
or any of its representatives or agents in connection with the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby
is merely incidental to such Buyer's purchase of the Securities. The Company further represents to each Buyer that the Company's decision
to enter into the Transaction Documents to which it is a party has been based solely on the independent evaluation by the Company and
its representatives.
(g) No
Integrated Offering. None of the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their affiliates, nor any Person acting on their behalf has,
directly or indirectly, made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security, under circumstances that
would cause this offering of the Securities to require approval of shareholders of the Company under any applicable shareholders approval
provisions, including, without limitation, under the rules and regulations of any exchange or automated quotation system on which
any of the securities of the Company are listed or designated for quotation. None of the Company, its Subsidiaries, their affiliates nor
any Person acting on their behalf will take any action or steps that would cause the offering of any of the Securities to be integrated
with other offerings of securities of the Company.

Effect. The Company understands and acknowledges that the number of Conversion Shares will increase in certain circumstances. The
Company further acknowledges its obligation to issue the Conversion Shares upon conversion of the Convertible Debentures in accordance
with the terms thereof is, absolute and unconditional regardless of the dilutive effect that such issuance may have on the ownership interests
of other shareholders of the Company.
(i) Application
of Takeover Protections; Rights Agreement. The Company and its board of directors have taken all necessary action, if any, in
order to render inapplicable any control share acquisition, interested shareholders, business combination, poison pill (including, without
limitation, any distribution under a rights agreement), shareholders rights plan or other similar anti-takeover provision under the M&A
or other organizational documents or the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or otherwise which is or could become applicable
to any Buyer as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, the Company's issuance of
the Securities and any Buyer's ownership of the Securities.
(j) SEC
Documents; Financial Statements. During the two (2) years prior to the date hereof, the Company has timely filed all reports,
schedules, forms, proxy statements, statements and other documents required to be filed by it with the SEC pursuant to the reporting requirements
of the Exchange Act (all of the foregoing filed prior to the date hereof and all exhibits and appendices included therein and financial
statements, notes and schedules thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein being hereinafter referred to as the “SEC
Documents”). The Company has delivered or has made available to the Buyers or their respective representatives true, correct and
complete copies of each of the SEC Documents not available on the EDGAR system. As of their respective dates, the SEC Documents complied
in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act or the Securities Act, as applicable and none of the SEC Documents,
at the time they were filed with the SEC, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made,
not misleading. As of their respective dates, the financial statements of the Company included in the SEC Documents complied in all material
respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto as in effect
as of the time of filing. Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”),
consistently applied, during the periods involved (except (i) as may be otherwise indicated in such financial statements or the notes
thereto, or (ii) in the case of unaudited interim statements, to the extent they may exclude footnotes or may be condensed or summary
statements) and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the Company as of the dates thereof and the results
of its operations and cash flows for the periods then ended (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments
which will not be material, either individually or in the aggregate). The reserves, if any, established by the Company or the lack of
reserves, if applicable, are reasonable based upon facts and circumstances known by the Company on the date hereof and there are no loss
contingencies that are required to be accrued by the Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 5 of the Financial Accounting
Standards Board which are not provided for by the Company in its financial statements or otherwise. No other information provided by or
on behalf of the Company to any of the Buyers which is not included in the SEC Documents (including, without limitation, information referred
to in Section 2(d) or in the Disclosure Schedule to this Agreement) contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits
to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading, in the light of the circumstance under which
they are or were made. The Company is not currently contemplating to amend or restate any of the financial statements (including, without
limitation, any notes or any letter of the independent accountants of the Company with respect thereto) included in the SEC Documents
(the “Financial Statements”), nor is the Company currently aware of facts or circumstances which would require the Company
to amend or restate any of the Financial Statements, in each case, in order for any of the Financials Statements to be in compliance with
GAAP and the rules and regulations of the SEC. The Company has not been informed by its independent accountants that they recommend
that the Company amend or restate any of the Financial Statements or that there is any need for the Company to amend or restate any of
the Financial Statements.
(k) Absence
of Certain Changes. Since the date of the Company's most recent audited financial statements contained in a Form 20-F, there
has been no Material Adverse Effect, nor any event or occurrence specifically affecting the Company or its Subsidiaries that would be
reasonably expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Since the date of the Company's most recent audited financial statements contained
in a Form 10-K, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has (i) declared or paid any dividends, (ii) sold any material
assets, individually or in the aggregate, outside of the ordinary course of business or (iii) made any material capital expenditures,
individually or in the aggregate, outside of the ordinary course of business. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has taken
any steps to seek protection pursuant to any law or statute relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership, liquidation
or winding up, nor does the Company or any Subsidiary have any knowledge or reason to believe that any of their respective creditors intend
to initiate involuntary bankruptcy proceedings or any actual knowledge of any fact which would reasonably lead a creditor to do so. The
Company and its Subsidiaries, individually and on a consolidated basis, are not as of the date hereof, and after giving effect to the
transactions contemplated hereby to occur at the Closing, will not be Insolvent (as defined below). For purposes of this Section 3(k),
“Insolvent” means, (i) with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, (A) the present
fair saleable value of the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ assets is less than the amount required to pay the Company’s
and its Subsidiaries’ total Indebtedness (as defined below), (B) the Company and its Subsidiaries are unable to pay their debts
and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become absolute and matured or (C) the Company
and its Subsidiaries intend to incur or believe that they will incur debts that would be beyond their ability to pay as such debts mature;
or (ii) with respect to the Company and each Subsidiary, individually, (A) the present fair saleable value of the Company’s
or such Subsidiary’s (as the case may be) assets is less than the amount required to pay its respective total Indebtedness, (B) the
Company or such Subsidiary (as the case may be) is unable to pay its respective debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise,
as such debts and liabilities become absolute and matured or (C) the Company or such Subsidiary (as the case may be) intends to incur

any of its Subsidiaries has engaged in any business or in any transaction, and is not about to engage in any business or in any transaction,

the business in which it is engaged as such business is now conducted and is proposed to be conducted.

the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such
certificate, authorization or permit. There is no agreement, commitment, judgment, injunction, order or decree binding upon the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries or to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party which has or would reasonably be expected to

Material Adverse Effect on the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

respect thereto.

and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under
the Exchange Act, as applicable, is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive
officer or officers and its principal financial officer or officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

other Person relating to any potential material weakness or significant deficiency in any part of the internal controls over financial
reporting of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

are engaged. In accordance with the previous sentence, the Company currently maintains no insurance policies. Neither the Company nor
any such Subsidiary has been refused any insurance coverage sought or applied for, and neither the Company nor any such Subsidiary has
any reason to believe that it will be unable to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar
coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its business at a cost that would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

hereby other than those specifically set forth in Section 2.
(cc) No General
Solicitation. Neither the Company, nor any of its affiliates, nor any Person acting on its or their behalf, has engaged in any form
of general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act) in connection with the offer
or sale of the Securities.
(dd) Private
Placement. Assuming the accuracy of the Buyers’ representations and warranties set forth in Section 2, no registration
under the Securities Act is required for the offer and sale of the Securities by the Company to the Buyers as contemplated hereby. The
issuance and sale of the Securities hereunder does not contravene the rules and regulations of the Principal Market.
(ee) No
Disqualification Events. With respect to Securities to be offered and sold hereunder in reliance on Rule 506(b) under the

except for a Disqualification Event covered by Rule 506(d)(2) or (d)(3). The Company has exercised reasonable care to determine
whether any Issuer Covered Person is subject to a Disqualification Event. The Company has complied, to the extent applicable, with its
disclosure obligations under Rule 506(e), and has furnished to the Buyers a copy of any disclosures provided thereunder.

of its obligations under any of the Transaction Documents. In addition, on or prior to the date hereof, the Company had discussions with
its accountants about its financial statements previously filed with the SEC. Based on those discussions, the Company has no reason to
believe that it will need to restate any such financial statements or any part thereof.
(hh) There
are no agreements, arrangements, outstanding securities or instruments which will prevent the Company from or give to others any rights
to prevent the Company from satisfying its obligations, including but not limited to the payment of Principal, Interest, Payment

a Form D with respect to the Convertible Debentures as required under Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof to each Buyer promptly
after such filing. The Company shall, on or before the Closing Date, take such action as the Company shall reasonably determine is necessary
in order to obtain an exemption for, or to, qualify the Securities for sale to the Buyers at the Closing pursuant to this Agreement under
applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States (or to obtain an exemption from such qualification),
and shall provide evidence of any such action so taken to the Buyers on or prior to the Closing Date. Without limiting any other obligation
of the Company under this Agreement, the Company shall timely make all filings and reports relating to the offer and sale of the Securities
required under all applicable securities laws (including, without limitation, all applicable federal securities laws and all applicable

regulations and the like relating to the offering and sale of the Securities to the Buyers.

or lend, contribute or otherwise make available such proceeds to any subsidiary, joint venture partner or other Person (a) for the
purpose of funding or facilitating any activities or business of or with any Person or in any country or territory that, at the time of
such funding or facilitation, is the subject of Sanctions or is a Sanctioned Country, or (b) in any other manner that will result
in a violation of Sanctions or Applicable Laws by any Person (including any Person participating in the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, whether as underwriter, advisor, investor or otherwise). For the past five years, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries
has engaged in, and is now not engaged in, any dealings or transactions with any Person, or in any country or territory, that at the time
of the dealing or transaction is or was the subject of Sanctions or was a Sanctioned Country. The Company shall not, without the prior

To the extent applicable, the Company shall promptly secure the listing or designation for quotation (as the case may be) of all of the
Underlying Securities (as defined below) on the Principal Market, subject to official notice of issuance, and shall use reasonable efforts
to maintain such listing or designation for quotation (as the case may be) of all Underlying Securities from time to time issuable under
the terms of the Transaction Documents on such Principal Market for the Reporting Period. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries
shall take any action which could be reasonably expected to result in the delisting or suspension of the Class A Ordinary Shares

a result of any share split, share dividend, recapitalization, exchange or similar event or otherwise and (2) shares of the Company
into which the Class A Ordinary Shares are converted or exchanged without regard to any limitations on conversion of the Convertible
Debentures.
(e) Fees.
The Company shall pay to the Buyer, upon the effectiveness of the Registration Statement a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”)
equal to 1% of the Subscription Amount, either in cash or by the issuance to the Buyer of such number of Class A Ordinary Shares
that is equal to the Commitment Fee divided by the closing bid price of the Class A Ordinary Shares as of the date hereof (the “Commitment
Shares”) and a due diligence and structuring fee of $25,000 Any fee due and payable at each Closing shall be deducted from the

to compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws, the Securities may be pledged by a Buyer in connection with a bona fide
margin agreement or other loan or financing arrangement that is secured by the Securities. The Company hereby agrees to execute and deliver
such documentation as a pledgee of the Securities may reasonably request in connection with a pledge of the Securities to such pledgee
by a Buyer.
(h) Disclosure
of Transactions and Other Material Information.
(i) Disclosure
of Transactions. The Company shall, on or before the first Business Day after the date of this Agreement, file with the SEC a current
report on Form 6-K describing all the material terms of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents in the form required
by the Exchange Act and attaching all the material Transaction Documents (including, required exhibits, the “Current Report”).
From and after the filing of the Current Report, the Company shall have publicly disclosed all material, non-public information (if any)
provided to any of the Buyers by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents
in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. In addition, effective upon the filing of the Current Report,
the Company acknowledges and agrees that any and all confidentiality or similar obligations with respect to the transactions contemplated
by the Transaction Documents under any agreement, whether written or oral, between the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their
respective officers, directors, affiliates, employees or agents, on the one hand, and any of the Buyers or any of their affiliates, on
the other hand.
(ii) Limitations

directors, employees and agents not to, provide any Buyer with any material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries from and after the date hereof without first obtaining the express prior written consent of such Buyer (which may be granted
or withheld in such Buyer's sole discretion). In the event of a breach of any of the foregoing covenants or any of the covenants or agreements
contained in any other Transaction Document, by the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, or any of its or their respective officers, directors,
employees and agents (as determined in the reasonable good faith judgment of such Buyer), in addition to any other remedy provided herein
or in the Transaction Documents, such Buyer shall have the right to make a public disclosure, in the form of a press release, public advertisement
or otherwise, of such breach or such material, non-public information, as applicable, without the prior approval by the Company, any of
its Subsidiaries, or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees or agents. No Buyer shall have any liability to the
Company, any of its Subsidiaries, or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates, shareholders or agents,
for any such disclosure. To the extent that the Company delivers any material, non-public information to a Buyer without such Buyer’s
consent, the Company hereby covenants and agrees that such Buyer shall not have any duty of confidentiality with respect to, or a duty
not to trade on the basis of, such material, non-public information. Subject to the foregoing, neither the Company, its Subsidiaries nor
any Buyer shall issue any press releases or any other public statements with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby; provided,
however, the Company shall be entitled, without the prior approval of any Buyer, to make any press release or other public disclosure
with respect to such transactions (i) in substantial conformity with the 8-K Filing and contemporaneously therewith and (ii) as
is required by applicable law and regulations (provided that in the case of clause (i) each Buyer shall be consulted by the Company
in connection with any such press release or other public disclosure prior to its release). Without the prior written consent of the applicable
Buyer (which may be granted or withheld in such Buyer’s sole discretion), the Company shall not (and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries
and affiliates to not) disclose the name of such Buyer in any filing, announcement, release or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything contained
in this Agreement to the contrary and without implication that the contrary would otherwise be true, the Company expressly acknowledges
and agrees that no Buyer shall have (unless expressly agreed to by a particular Buyer after the date hereof in a written definitive and
binding agreement executed by the Company and such particular Buyer (it being understood and agreed that no Buyer may bind any other Buyer
with respect thereto)), any duty of confidentiality with respect to, or a duty not to trade on the basis of, any material, non-public
information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.
(iii) Other
Confidential Information. Disclosure Failures. In addition to other remedies set forth in this Section 4(g), and without limiting
anything set forth in any other Transaction Document, at any time after the Closing Date if the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, or any
of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents, provides any Buyer with material non-public information relating to the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries (each, the “Confidential Information”), the Company shall, on or prior to the applicable
Required Disclosure Date (as defined below), publicly disclose such Confidential Information on a Current Report on Form 8-K or otherwise
(each, a “Disclosure”). From and after such Disclosure, the Company shall have disclosed all Confidential Information
provided to such Buyer by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents.
In addition, effective upon such Disclosure, the Company acknowledges and agrees that any and all confidentiality or similar obligations
under any agreement, whether written or oral, between the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, directors,
affiliates, employees or agents, on the one hand, and any of the Buyers or any of their affiliates, on the other hand, shall terminate.
“Required Disclosure Date” means (x) if such Buyer authorized the delivery of such Confidential Information, either
(I) if the Company and such Buyer have mutually agreed upon a date (as evidenced by an e-mail or other writing) of Disclosure of
such Confidential Information, such agreed upon date or (II) otherwise, the seventh (7th) calendar day after the date such Buyer
first received any Confidential Information or (y) if such Buyer did not authorize the delivery of such Confidential Information,

of Shares. So long as any of the Convertible Debentures, remain outstanding, the Company shall have reserved from its duly authorized
share capital, and shall have instructed its transfer agent to irrevocably reserve, the maximum number of Class A Ordinary Shares
issuable upon (i) conversion of all Convertible Debentures (assuming for purposes hereof that (x) such Convertible Debentures
are convertible at the Floor Price (as defined therein) as of the date of determination and (y) any such conversion shall not take
into account any limitations on the conversion of the Convertible Debentures set forth therein) (the “Maximum Conversion Shares”)
(collectively, the “Required Reserve Amount”); provided that at no time shall the number of Class A Ordinary
Shares reserved pursuant to this Section be reduced other than proportionally in connection with any conversion and/or redemption,
or reverse share split. If at any time the number of Class A Ordinary Shares authorized to be issued is not sufficient to meet the
Required Reserve Amount, the Company will promptly take all corporate action necessary to authorize and reserve a sufficient number of
shares, including, without limitation, calling a special meeting of stockholders to authorize additional shares to meet the Company's
obligations pursuant to the Transaction Documents, in the case of an insufficient number of authorized shares, recommending that stockholders
vote in favor of an increase in such authorized number of shares sufficient to meet the Required Reserve Amount.
(j) Conduct
of Business. The business of the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not be conducted in violation of any law, ordinance or regulation
of any Governmental Entity, except where such violations would not reasonably be expected to result, either individually or in the aggregate,
in a Material Adverse Effect.
(k) (i) Except
as expressly set forth below, the Buyer covenants that from and after the date hereof through and ending when no Convertible Debentures
remain outstanding (the “Restricted Period”), no Buyer or any of its officers, or any entity managed or controlled
by the Buyer (collectively, the “Restricted Persons” and each of the foregoing is referred to herein as a “Restricted
Person”) shall, directly or indirectly, engage in any “short sale” (as such term is defined in Rule 200 of
Regulation SHO of the Exchange Act) of the Class A Ordinary Shares, either for its own principal account or for the principal account
of any other Restricted Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is expressly understood and agreed that nothing contained herein shall
(without implication that the contrary would otherwise be true) prohibit any Restricted Person during the Restricted Period from: (1) selling
“long” (as defined under Rule 200 promulgated under Regulation SHO) Class A Ordinary Shares; or (2) selling
a number of Class A Ordinary Shares equal to the number of Underlying Shares that such Restricted Person is entitled to receive,
but has not yet received from the Company or the transfer agent, (A) upon the completion of a pending conversion of the Convertible
Debentures for which a valid Conversion Notice (as defined in the Convertible Debentures) has been submitted to the Company pursuant to

Law. This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall, in all respects, be governed by, and construed

other Transaction Document, or any contemplated transaction, shall be brought in a court only in the Governing Jurisdiction. The Company
shall not file any counterclaim against the Buyer in any suit, claim, action, litigation or proceeding brought by the Buyer against the

suit, claim, action, litigation or proceeding the counterclaim is mandatory, and not permissive, and would be considered waived unless

hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the jurisdiction of such courts and agrees that all claims in respect of any such suit,
claim, action, litigation or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State Court or, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, in such federal court. The Company and the Buyer agree that a final judgment in any such suit, claim, action, litigation
or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by
law.
(iv) The
Company and the Buyer irrevocably consent to the service of process out of any of the aforementioned courts in any such suit, claim, action,

otherwise proceed against the Company or any other Person in the Governing Jurisdiction or in any other jurisdiction.

(i) Indemnification.
(i) In
consideration of each Buyer's execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and acquiring the Securities thereunder and in addition
to all of the Company's other obligations under the Transaction Documents, the Company shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless
each Buyer and each holder of any Securities and all of their stockholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees and direct
or indirect investors and any of the foregoing Persons' agents or other representatives (including, without limitation, those retained
in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against
any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection
therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including
reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements (the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred by any Indemnitee as a result
of, or arising out of, or relating to (i) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company in
any of the Transaction Documents, (ii) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Company or any Subsidiary contained
in any of the Transaction Documents or (iii) any cause of action, suit, proceeding or claim brought or made against such Indemnitee
by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary) or which otherwise
involves such Indemnitee that arises out of or results from (A) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of any of the
Transaction Documents, (B) any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds
of the issuance of the Securities, or (C) any disclosure properly made to such Buyer pursuant to Section 4(g), or (D) the
status of such Buyer or holder of the Securities either as an investor in the Company pursuant to the transactions contemplated by the
Transaction Documents or as a party to this Agreement (including, without limitation, as a party in interest or otherwise in any action
or proceeding for injunctive or other equitable relief). To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by the Company may be unenforceable
for any reason, the Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities
which is permissible under applicable law.
(ii) Promptly
after receipt by an Indemnitee under this Section 9(i) of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including
any governmental action or proceeding) involving an Indemnified Liability, such Indemnitee shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to
be made against the Company under this Section 9(i), deliver to the Company a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the
Company shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the Company so desires, to assume control of the defense thereof with
counsel mutually reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Indemnitee; provided, however, that an Indemnitee shall have the
right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by the Company if: (A) the Company has agreed
in writing to pay such fees and expenses; (B) the Company shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such Indemnified
Liability and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee in any such Indemnified Liability; or (C) the named
parties to any such Indemnified Liability (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnitee and the Company, and such Indemnitee
shall have been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest is likely to exist if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnitee
and the Company (in which case, if such Indemnitee notifies the Company in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense
of the Company, then the Company shall not have the right to assume the defense thereof and such counsel shall be at the expense of the
Company), provided further, that in the case of clause (C) above the Company shall not be responsible for the reasonable fees and
expenses of more than one (1) separate legal counsel for the Indemnitees. The Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate with the Company
in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or Indemnified Liability by the Company and shall furnish to the Company
all information reasonably available to the Indemnitee which relates to such action or Indemnified Liability. The Company shall keep the
Indemnitee reasonably apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. The Company
shall not be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent, provided, however,
that the Company shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent
of the Indemnitee, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an unconditional
term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnitee of a release from all liability in respect to such Indemnified
Liability or litigation, and such settlement shall not include any admission as to fault on the part of the Indemnitee. Following indemnification
as provided for hereunder, the Company shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnitee with respect to all third parties, firms or
corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the Company within
a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve the Company of any liability to the Indemnitee under this Section 9(i),
except to the extent that the Company is materially and adversely prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.
(iii) The
indemnification required by this Section 9(i) shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of
the investigation or defense, within ten (10) days after bills supporting the Indemnified Liabilities are received by the Company.
(iv) The
indemnity agreement contained herein shall be in addition to (A) any cause of action or similar right of the Indemnitee against the
Company or others, and (B) any liabilities the Company may be subject to pursuant to the law.
(j) No
Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their
mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party.

to such effect, addressed and reasonably acceptable to the Company’s transfer agent (the “Registration Period”).
(b) Mandatory
Registration. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company shall (i) on or prior to the Filing Deadline,
prepare and file with the SEC an initial Registration Statement on Form F-1 (or any successor form thereto covering the resale by
the Investor of Registrable Securities, and (ii) on or prior to the 30th calendar day following receipt of each written notice by

Statement prepared pursuant hereto shall register for resale at least the number of Ordinary Shares equal to the Required Registration
Amount as of date the Registration Statement is initially filed with the SEC. Each Registration Statement shall contain “Selling
Stockholders” and “Plan of Distribution” sections. The Company shall use its best efforts to have each Registration
Statement declared effective by the SEC as soon as practicable, but in no event later than the Effectiveness Deadline. By 9:30 am, New
York time on the Business Day following the date of effectiveness, the Company shall file with the SEC in accordance with Rule 424
under the Securities Act the final Prospectus to be used in connection with sales pursuant to such Registration Statement. Prior to the
filing of the Registration Statement with the SEC, the Company shall furnish a draft of the Registration Statement to the Investor for
their review and comment. The Investor shall furnish comments from the SEC on the Registration Statement to the Company within 24 hours
of the receipt thereof from the Company. For the purposes hereof, the Investor shall be entitled to deliver a Demand Notice to the Company
at any time during the Registration Period if at such time (i) no Registration Statement is then in effect which the Investor may
use to resell Registrable Securities, or (ii) a Registration Statement is effective, but the holder has resold substantially all
of the Ordinary Shares registered on such Registration Statement. In addition, the Investor may deliver a Demand Notice to the Company
at any time during the Registration Period during which (i) the Company does not have a class of securities listed, or approved for
listing, on a national securities exchange registered pursuant to Section 6 of the Exchange Act, or (ii) Rule 144, as amended,
would not allow the “tacking” of the holding period of the Convertible Debenture onto the holding period of the Conversion
Shares issuable upon conversion thereof.
(c) Amendments
and Supplements. During the Registration Period, the Company shall (i) promptly 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 a 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 Registration Period, (ii) prepare and file with the SEC additional Registration Statements
in order to register for resale under the Securities Act all of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the terms of this Agreement;
(iii) cause the related Prospectus to be amended or supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement (subject to the terms of this
Agreement), and as so supplemented or amended to be filed pursuant to Rule 424; (iv) respond as promptly as reasonably possible
to any comments received from the SEC with respect to a Registration Statement or any amendment thereto and as promptly as reasonably
possible provide the Investor true and complete copies of all correspondence from and to the SEC relating to a Registration Statement

Investor which has not executed a confidentiality agreement with the Company); and (v) 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. In the case of amendments and supplements to a Registration Statement
which are required to be filed pursuant to this Agreement (including pursuant to this Section 2(c)) by reason of the Company’s
filing a report on Form 20-F or Form 6-K or any analogous report under the Securities Exchange Act, the Company shall incorporate
such report by reference into the Registration Statement, if applicable, or shall file such amendments or supplements with the SEC on
the same day on which the Exchange Act report is filed which created the requirement for the Company to amend or supplement the Registration
Statement.
(d) Reduction
of Registrable Securities Included in a Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, in the event that the SEC
requires the Company to reduce the number of Registrable Securities to be included in a Registration Statement in order to allow the Company
to rely on Rule 415 with respect to a Registration Statement, then the Company shall be obligated to include in such Registration
Statement (which may be a subsequent Registration Statement if the Company needs to withdraw a Registration Statement and refile a new
Registration Statement in order to rely on Rule 415) only such limited portion of the Registrable Securities as the SEC shall permit.
Any Registrable Securities that are excluded in accordance with the foregoing terms are hereinafter referred to as “Cut Back
Securities.” To the extent Cut Back Securities exist, promptly following such time as may be permitted by the SEC, the Company
shall be required to file a Registration Statement covering the resale of the Cut Back Securities (subject also to the terms of this Section)
and shall use its best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective as promptly as practicable thereafter, but
in no event later than the Effectiveness Deadline. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, the Company shall be obligated to use
diligent efforts to advocate with the SEC for the registration of all of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the SEC Guidance,
including without limitation, Compliance and Disclosure Interpretation 612.09. Unless otherwise directed in writing by a holder as to
its Registrable Securities, the number of Registrable Securities to be registered on such Registration Statement will be reduced as follows:
(i) first, the Company shall reduce or eliminate any securities to be included other than Registrable Securities; and (ii) second,
the Company shall reduce Registrable Securities on a pro rata basis based on the total number of Registrable Securities held by such holders
(or as otherwise expressly directed by the SEC).
(e) Piggy-Back
Registrations. If at any time there is not an effective Registration Statement covering all of the Registrable Securities and the
Company proposes to register the offer and sale of any shares of its Ordinary Shares under the Securities Act (other than a registration
(i) pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-8 ((or other registration solely relating to an offering or sale to employees
or directors of the Company pursuant to any employee stock plan or other employee benefit arrangement), (ii) pursuant to a Registration
Statement on Form S-4 (or similar form that relates to a transaction subject to Rule 145 under the Securities Act or any successor
rule thereto), or (iii) in connection with any dividend or distribution reinvestment or similar plan), whether for its own account
or for the account of one or more stockholders of the Company and the form of Registration Statement to be used may be used for any registration
of Registrable Securities, the Company shall give prompt written notice (in any event no later than five days prior to the filing of such
Registration Statement) to the holders of Registrable Securities of its intention to effect such a registration and, shall include in
such registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion from the holders
of Registrable Securities; provided, however, that, the Company shall not be required to register any Registrable Securities
pursuant to this Section 2(f) that have been sold or may be sold without any restrictions pursuant to Rule 144, as determined
by the counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter to such effect, addressed and acceptable to the Company’s transfer
agent.
3. RELATED

on Form 20-F, interim financial reports or current reports on Form 6-K), furnish to each Investor copies of all such documents
proposed to be filed, which documents (other than those incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference) will be subject to the
reasonable and prompt review of such Investor. The Company shall not file a Registration Statement or any such Prospectus or any amendments

(b) The
Company shall furnish to each Investor whose Registrable Securities are included in any Registration Statement, without charge, (i) an
electronic copy of such Registration Statement as declared effective by the SEC and any amendment(s) thereto, including financial

electronic of the final prospectus included in such Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto (or such other number

Registration Statement to correct such untrue statement or omission. The Company shall also promptly notify each Investor in writing (i) when

or related information, and (iii) of the Company’s reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to a Registration

with respect to a Registration Statement or any amendment thereto.
(e) The
Company shall use its best 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 within the United States of America
and, if such an order or suspension is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order or suspension at the earliest possible moment and

(h) The
Company shall cooperate with the holders of the Registrable Securities to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates
representing the Registrable Securities to be sold pursuant to such Registration Statement or Rule 144 free of any restrictive legends
and representing such number of Ordinary Shares and registered in such names as the holders of the Registrable Securities may reasonably
request a reasonable period of time prior to sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement or Rule; provided,
that the Company may satisfy its obligations hereunder without issuing physical share certificates through the use of The Depository Trust
Company's Direct Registration System.
(i) The
Company shall use its best efforts to cause the Registrable Securities to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies
or authorities as may be necessary to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities.

has been declared effective by the SEC.
(l) The
Company shall take all other reasonable actions necessary to expedite and facilitate disposition by each Investor of Registrable Securities
pursuant to a Registration Statement.
4. OBLIGATIONS
OF THE INVESTOR.
(a) The
Investor agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(d) the
Investor will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement covering such Registrable
Securities until the Investor’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3(d) or
receipt of notice that no supplement or amendment is required. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, subject to compliance with the
securities laws, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to deliver unlegended certificates for Ordinary Shares to a transferee of
an Investor in accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities with
respect to which an Investor has entered into a contract for sale prior to the Investor’s receipt of a notice from the Company
of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(d) and for which the Investor has not yet settled.
(b) The
Investor covenants and agrees that it will comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act as applicable to it
or an exemption therefrom in connection with sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement.
5. EXPENSES
OF REGISTRATION.
Each party shall bear its
own fees and expenses related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreements. For the avoidance of doubt, all expenses incurred by
the Company in complying with its obligations pursuant to this Agreement and in connection with the registration and disposition of Registrable
Securities shall be paid by the Company, including, without limitation, all registration, listing and qualifications fees, printers expenses,
and fees and expenses of the Company’s counsel and accountants (except legal fees of Investor’s counsel associated with the
review of the Registration Statement). The Investor shall pay any sales or brokerage commissions and fees and expenses of counsel for,
and other expenses of, the Investor incurred in connection with registration of Registrable Securities.
6. INDEMNIFICATION.
With respect to Registrable
Securities which are included in a Registration Statement under this Agreement:
(a) To
the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company shall, and hereby does, indemnify, hold harmless and defend the Investor, the directors,
officers, partners, employees, agents, representatives of, and each Person, if any, who controls any Investor within the meaning of the
Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each, an “Indemnified Person”), against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities,
judgments, fines, penalties, charges, costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees, amounts paid in settlement or expenses, joint or several
(collectively, “Claims”) incurred in investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim, suit, inquiry, proceeding,
investigation or appeal taken from the foregoing by or before any court or governmental, administrative or other regulatory agency, body
or the SEC, whether pending or threatened, whether or not an indemnified party is or may be a party thereto (“Indemnified Damages”),
to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect
thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in a Registration
Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto or in any filing made in connection with the qualification of the offering under the
securities or other “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in which Registrable Securities are offered (“Blue Sky
Filing”), or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading; (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any final
prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if the Company files any amendment thereof or supplement thereto with the SEC) or the omission
or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under
which the statements therein were made, not misleading; or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities
Act, the Exchange Act, any other law, including, without limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation there under
relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement (the matters in the foregoing clauses
(i) through (iii) being, collectively, “Violations”). The Company shall reimburse the Investor and each such
controlling person promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any legal fees or disbursements or other reasonable
expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(a): (x) shall not apply to a Claim by an Indemnified Person
arising out of or based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the
Company by such Indemnified Person expressly for use in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement or any such amendment
thereof or supplement thereto; (y) shall not be available to the extent such Claim is based on a failure of the Investor to deliver
or to cause to be delivered the prospectus made available by the Company, if such prospectus was timely made available by the Company
pursuant to Section 3(c); and (z) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected
without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Such indemnity shall remain in full
force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person.
(b) In
connection with a Registration Statement, the Investor agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend, to the same extent and in the same
manner as is set forth in Section 6(a), the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers, employees, representatives, or
agents and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each an “Indemnified
Party”), against any Claim or Indemnified Damages to which any of them may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange
Act or otherwise, insofar as such Claim or Indemnified Damages arise out of or is based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent,
and only to the extent, that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company
by such Investor expressly for use in connection with such Registration Statement; and, subject to Section 6(d), such Investor will
reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim; provided,
however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 6(b) and the agreement with respect to contribution contained
in Section 7 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written
consent of such Investor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, further, however, that the Investor shall be liable
under this Section 6(b) for only that amount of a Claim or Indemnified Damages as does not exceed the net proceeds to such Investor
as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and
effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(b) with respect to any prospectus shall not inure to the benefit
of any Indemnified Party if the untrue statement or omission of material fact contained in the prospectus was corrected and such new prospectus
was delivered to each Investor prior to such Investor’s use of the prospectus to which the Claim relates.
(c) Promptly
after receipt by an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding
(including any governmental action or proceeding) involving a Claim, such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall, if a Claim in
respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 6, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice
of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party
so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually
satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be; provided, however, that
an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses of not more than
one (1) counsel for such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion
of counsel retained by the indemnifying party, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and the
indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Person or Indemnified
Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person shall cooperate
fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or claim by the indemnifying party
and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person which
relates to such action or claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person fully apprised at all times
as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement
of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent; provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not
unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified
Party or Indemnified Person, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include
as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person of a release
from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the indemnifying party
shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations
relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within
a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified
Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced in its ability to
defend such action.
(d) The
indemnification required by this Section 6 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation
or defense, as and when bills are received or Indemnified Damages are incurred.
(e) The
indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (i) any cause of action or similar right of the Indemnified Party or
Indemnified Person against the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant
to the law.
7. CONTRIBUTION.
To the extent any indemnification
by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited by law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect
to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 6 to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however,
that: (i) no seller of Registrable Securities guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of
the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any seller of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation;
and (ii) contribution by any seller of Registrable Securities shall be limited in amount to the net amount of proceeds received by
such seller from the sale of such Registrable Securities.
8. REPORTS
UNDER THE EXCHANGE ACT.
With a view to making available
to the Investor the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or any similar rule or regulation of the SEC that
may at any time permit the Investor to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration, and as a material inducement
to the Investor’s purchase of the Convertible Debentures, the Company represents, warrants, and covenants to the following:
(a) The
Company is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and has filed all required reports
under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act during the 12 months prior to the date hereof (or for such shorter period that
the issuer was required to file such reports), other than Form 8-K reports.
(b) During
the Registration Period, the Company shall file with the SEC in a timely manner all required reports under Section 13 or 15(d) of
the Exchange Act (it being understood that nothing herein shall limit the Company’s obligations under the Securities Purchase Agreement)
and such reports shall conform to the requirement of the Exchange Act and the SEC for filing thereunder.
(c) The
Company shall furnish to the Investor so long as such Investor owns Registrable Securities, promptly upon request, (i) a written
statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual
or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (iii) such other information
as may be reasonably requested to permit the Investor to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration.
9. AMENDMENT
OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS.
Provisions of this Agreement
may be amended and the observance thereof may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively),
only with the written consent of the Company and Investor. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 9 shall
be binding upon the Investor and the Company. Without the express written consent of a holder of Registrable Securities, no such amendment
shall be effective to the extent that it applies to fewer than all of the holders of the Registrable Securities. No consideration shall
be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of this Agreement unless the
same consideration also is offered to all of the parties to this Agreement.
10. MISCELLANEOUS.
(a) A
Person is deemed to be a holder of Registrable Securities whenever such Person owns or is deemed to own of record such Registrable Securities
or owns the right to receive the Registrable Securities. If the Company receives conflicting instructions, notices or elections from two
or more Persons with respect to the same Registrable Securities, the Company shall act upon the basis of instructions, notice or election
received from the registered owner of such Registrable Securities.
(b) The
Company shall not file any other registration statements on Form F-3, Form F-1, or otherwise until the initial Registration
Statement required hereunder is declared effective by the SEC, provided that this Section 10(b) shall not prohibit the Company
from filing amendments to registration statements already filed. The Company shall not include any other securities on a Registration
Statement unless otherwise agreed by the Investor.
(c) Any
notices, consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Agreement must be in writing
and will be deemed to have been delivered pursuant to the notice provisions of the Securities Purchase Agreement or to such other address
and/or electronic mail address and/or to the attention of such other person as the recipient party has specified by written notice given
to each other party five (5) days prior to the effectiveness of such change. Written confirmation of receipt (A) given by the
recipient of such notice, consent, waiver or other communication, (B) electronically generated by the sender’s email service
provider containing the time, date, and recipient email or (C) provided by a courier or overnight courier service shall be rebuttable
evidence of personal service, receipt by facsimile or receipt from a nationally recognized overnight delivery service in accordance with
this section.
(d) Failure
of any party to exercise any right or remedy under this Agreement or otherwise, or delay by a party in exercising such right or remedy,
shall not operate as a waiver thereof.
(e) The
laws of the State of New York shall govern all issues concerning the relative rights of the Company and the Investors as its stockholders
under this Agreement. All other questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall
be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or
rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction
other than the State of New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the
State of New York, sitting in New York County, New York and federal courts for the Southern District of New York sitting New York, New
York, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed
herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally
subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue
of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process
being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under
this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained
herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. If any provision of this Agreement
shall be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability
of the remainder of this Agreement in that jurisdiction or the validity or enforceability of any provision of this Agreement in any other
jurisdiction. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION
OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
(f) This
Agreement and the rights, duties and obligations of the Investor hereunder may only be assigned upon the transfer of a Convertible Debenture
or the Conversion Shares issued pursuant to a Convertible Debenture pursuant to the terms and restrictions on transfer set forth in the
Securities Purchase Agreement and the applicable Convertible Debenture. This Agreement and the provisions hereof shall be binding upon
and shall inure to the benefit of each of the parties and its successors and the permitted assigns of the parties. No assignment by any
party hereto of such party’s rights, duties and obligations hereunder shall be binding upon or obligate the Company unless and until
the Company shall have received (A) written notice of such assignment and (B) the written agreement of the assignee, in a form
reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement (which may be accomplished by an addendum
or certificate of joinder to this Agreement).
(g) The
headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.
(h) This
Agreement may be executed in identical counterparts, both which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective
when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party. Facsimile or other electronically scanned and delivered
signatures (including any electronic signature covered by the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, the
Electronic Signatures and Records Act or other applicable law, e.g., www.docusign.com), including by e-mail attachment, shall be deemed
to have been duly and validly delivered and be valid and effective for all purposes of this Agreement.
(i) Each
party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such
other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as the other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent
and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.
(j) The
language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent and no rules of
strict construction will be applied against any party.
(k) This
Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and is not for the
benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person.
