Such disclosure controls and procedures are designed and maintained to ensure that information relating to JanOne, including its consolidated subsidiaries, required to be disclosed in JanOne’s reports under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that all such material information is accumulated and communicated to JanOne’s principal executive officer and its principal financial officer by others employed by JanOne to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures under the Exchange Act and to make the certifications required pursuant to Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. JanOne has disclosed to its auditors and the audit committee of its Board of Directors (A) any “significant deficiency” or “material weaknesses” (as such terms are defined in Rule 1-02(a)(4) of Regulation S-X) in the design or operation of internal controls over financial reporting that are reasonably likely adversely to affect in any material respect its ability timely to record, process, summarize, and report financial information, and (B) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees of JanOne and its subsidiaries who have a significant role in its internal controls over financial reporting.

(f) JanOne is in compliance in all material respects with the listing and corporate governance rules and regulations of The Nasdaq Stock Market applicable to JanOne.

7.7 Confidentiality

In connection with the Merger, JanOne, Merger Sub, and Alt5 are furnishing each other with certain information that is either nonpublic, confidential, or proprietary in nature. All such information furnished by one party to the other or its representatives is hereinafter referred to as the “Confidential Information.” As used in this Agreement, the “representatives” of any party shall mean such party’s officers, employees, agents, or other representatives, including, without limitation, attorneys, accountants, consultants, and financial advisors. In consideration of each party’s being furnished with the Confidential Information of the other, each party agrees that:

(a) The Confidential Information will be kept confidential and, except as required by law, will not, without the prior written consent of the party supplying the information, be disclosed by the receiving party or its representatives during the period that terminates on April 10, 2029 in any manner whatsoever, in whole or in part, and will not be used by the receiving party or its representatives directly or indirectly for any purpose other than evaluating and facilitating the Merger; provided, however, that, upon the execution of this Agreement by JanOne, Merger Sub and Alt5 and their representatives will be free to use the Confidential Information to the extent required by law in any subsequent filings with federal or state authorities relating to the Merger. Each party agrees to transmit the Confidential Information only to those of its representatives who need to know the Confidential Information for the purpose of advising it regarding any of the purposes for which it is permitted to use the Confidential Information under the terms of this Agreement, who are informed by the party supplying such information of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information, and who are directed by such party to comply with the terms of this Agreement. Each party will be responsible for any material breach of this Agreement by its representatives.

(b) Without the prior written consent of the other parties to this Agreement, no party or any of its representatives will disclose to any other Person the fact that the Confidential Information has been made available, or any of the terms, conditions, or other facts with respect to the Merger, including the status thereof, except as required by law or permitted under the terms of this Agreement.

(c) In the event the parties do not proceed with the Merger, the Confidential Information and all copies thereof will be destroyed or returned promptly without retaining any copies thereof. Analyses, studies, or other documents prepared by any party or its representatives for the purpose of assisting it in connection with the Merger will be held by the receiving party and kept confidential and subject to the terms of this Agreement or, at the election of the other party, destroyed.

JanOne and ALT5 Agreement and Plan of Merger	PAGE 29
Execution Version	5/10/24

(d) This Section 7.7 shall be inoperative as to such portions of the Confidential Information that (i) are or become generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by the receiving party or its representatives which is not required by law; (ii) become available to the receiving party from a source with no obligation of confidentiality to the other party; (iii) describe technology independently developed by the receiving party; or (iv) were known to the receiving party on a non-confidential basis prior to its disclosure to the receiving party by the supplying party or one of its representatives.

(e) In the event that a receiving party or any of its representatives is requested or becomes legally compelled (by written or oral interrogatories, subpoena, civil investigative demand, or similar process) to disclose any of the Confidential Information for purposes not permitted by this Agreement, the receiving party will provide the supplying party with prompt written notice so that the supplying party may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. In the event that such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, or that the supplying party waives compliance with the provisions of this Agreement, the receiving party will furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information which is legally required, and will exercise good faith efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded the Confidential Information.

(f) Each party agrees that the other parties shall be entitled to equitable relief, including injunction and specific performance, in the event of any breach of the provisions of clause (a), (b), (c), or (e) of this Section 7.7. Such remedies shall not be deemed to be the exclusive remedies for a breach of this Section 7.7 by any party or its representatives but shall be in addition to all other remedies available at law or equity.

(g) It is further understood and agreed that no failure or delay by any party in exercising any fight, power, or privilege under this Section 7.7 shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power, or privilege hereunder.

7.8 Further Acts

After the Closing Date, each party hereto, at the request of and without any further cost or expense to the other parties, will take any further actions necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or any Operative Document and/or to effect the issuance of the Merger Consideration Common Stock and the Merger Consideration Preferred Stock to the Alt5 Stockholders.
