Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed.

(c) Maturity. The Company shall pay to the Investor an amount in cash representing any amount of the Pre-Paid Advance that remains outstanding, plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, on August 28, 2025, unless otherwise agreed by the parties (the “Maturity Date”).

In consideration of the Company’s execution and delivery of this Agreement, and in addition to all of the Investor’s other obligations under this Agreement, the Investor shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless the Company and all of its officers, directors, shareholders, employees and agents (including, without limitation, those retained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) and each Person who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Company Indemnitees”) from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by the Company Indemnitees or any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (a) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement for the registration of the Shares as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, or in any related prospectus, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; provided, however, that the Investor will only be liable for written information relating to the Investor furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the Investor specifically for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity, and will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue

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 reasonably satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee, as the case may be; provided, however, that an Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the actual and reasonable third party fees and expenses of not more than one counsel for such Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee 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 Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee 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 Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee which relates to such action or claim, unless (i) such cooperation or furnishing of information is likely to, in the opinion of the applicable Investor Indemnitee’s or Company Indemnitee’s counsel, result in the waiver of attorney client privilege, or (ii) the interests of the Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee, as the case may be, and the indemnifying party conflict or are adverse with respect to a particular action or claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee reasonably apprised 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 Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement

- 22 -

or other compromise which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee 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 Investor Indemnitee or Company Indemnitee with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The indemnification required by this Article VI shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received.

Section 6.04 Remedies. The remedies provided for in this Article VI are not exclusive and shall not limit any right or remedy which may be available to any indemnified Person at law or equity. The obligations of the parties to indemnify or make contribution under this Article VI shall survive expiration or termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary under this Agreement or Applicable Laws, no party shall be entitled to any indemnification pursuant to this Article VI (other than claims for any damages resulting from fraud) until the aggregate amount of all such damages that would otherwise be indemnifiable to such party equals or exceeds $25,000 (the “Basket”), at which time such party shall be entitled to indemnification for the full amount of all damages (including all damages incurred prior to exceeding the Basket).

Section 6.05 Limitation of liability. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no party shall be entitled to recover from the other party for punitive, indirect, incidental or consequential damages.

The Company covenants with the Investor, and the Investor covenants with the Company, as follows, which covenants of one party are for the benefit of the other party, during the Term:

Section 7.01 Effective Registration Statement.

(a) The Registration Statement. The Company has filed, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, with the SEC a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File Number 333-281042) (the “Initial Registration Statement”) including a base prospectus, with respect to the issuance and sale of securities by the Company, including the Common Shares, which contains, among other things a Plan of Distribution section disclosing the methods by which the Company may sell the Common Shares. The Initial Registration Statement was declared effective on August 6, 2024, and remains in effect on the date hereof. Except where the context otherwise requires, the Initial Registration Statement, as amended when it became effective, including all documents filed as part thereof or incorporated by reference therein, and including any information contained in a Prospectus subsequently filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act or deemed to be a part of the Initial Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 430B of the Securities Act, is herein referred to as the “Registration Statement.”

- 23 -

(b) Initial Disclosure. Promptly after the execution of this Agreement, the Company shall file with the SEC a current report on Form 8-K or such other appropriate form as determined by counsel to the Company (the “Current Report”), relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and a Prospectus Supplement pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act disclosing all information relating to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents required to be disclosed therein and an updated Plan of Distribution, including, without limitation, the name of the Investor, the value of Shares being offered hereunder, the terms of the offering, the Purchase Price of the Shares, the amount of the Pre-Paid Advances, the terms and conditions of the Pre-Paid Advances, and other material terms of the offering, and any other information or disclosure necessary to register the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents (collectively, the “Initial Disclosure”) and shall provide the Investor with adequate opportunity to review the Initial Disclosure prior to its filing. To the extent required, promptly after each Closing Date and Purchase Notice Date, the Company shall file with the SEC a Prospectus Supplement pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act disclosing all information relating to a particular Closing or Advance required to be disclosed therein to the extent necessary to register all of the Shares issued and issuable pursuant thereto under the Registration Statement.

(c) Maintaining a Registration Statement. The Company shall maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement with respect to the Shares at all times a Pre-Paid Advance remains outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall ensure that the Registration Statement (including, without limitation, all amendments and supplements thereto) and the prospectus (including, without limitation, all amendments and supplements thereto) used in connection with the Registration Statement shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of prospectuses, in the light of the circumstances in which they were made) not misleading. If the Company becomes unable to utilize the Initial Registration Statement for the offering of Common Shares contemplated herein, the Company shall promptly file a Registration Statement to the extent necessary to register the resale of the Shares by the Investor and the parties agree to negotiate in good faith such changes as may be necessary to this Agreement to reflect the prompt resale of such Shares by the Investor.

(d) Filing Procedures. Not less than one Business Day prior to the filing of a Registration Statement and not less than one Business Day prior to the filing of any related amendments and supplements to any Registration Statement (except for any amendments or supplements caused by the filing of any annual reports on Form 10-K and current reports on Form 8-K, and any similar or successor reports), the Company shall furnish to the Investor copies of all such documents proposed to be filed, which documents (other than those filed pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the Securities Act) will be subject to the reasonable and prompt review of the Investor. The Investor shall furnish comments on a Registration Statement and any related amendment and supplement to a Registration Statement to the Company within 24 hours of the receipt thereof. If the Investor fails to provide comments to the Company within such 24-hour period, then the Registration Statement, related amendment or related supplement, as applicable, shall be deemed accepted by the Investor in the form originally delivered by the Company to the Investor.

- 24 -

(e) Delivery of Final Documents. The Company shall furnish to the Investor without charge, (i) at least one copy of each Registration Statement as declared effective by the SEC and any amendment(s) thereto, including financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated therein by reference, all exhibits and each preliminary prospectus, (ii) at the request of the Investor, at least one copy of the final prospectus included in such Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto (or such other number of copies as the Investor may reasonably request) and (iii) such other documents as the Investor may reasonably request from time to time in order to facilitate the disposition of the Common Shares owned by the Investor pursuant to a Registration Statement. Filing of the forgoing with the SEC via its EDGAR system shall satisfy the requirements of this Section.

(f) Amendments and Other Filings. The Company shall (i) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to a Registration Statement and the related prospectus used in connection with such Registration Statement, and (ii) all periodic reports, as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective at all times during the Term.

Section 7.02 Registration and Listing. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Common Shares to continue to be registered as a class of securities under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act, and to comply with its reporting and filing obligations under the Exchange Act, and shall not take any action or file any document (whether or not permitted by the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) to terminate or suspend such registration or to terminate or suspend its reporting and filing obligations under the Exchange Act or Securities Act. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to continue the listing and trading of the Common Shares and the listing of the Shares purchased by the Investor hereunder on the Principal Market and to comply with the Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the rules and regulations of the Principal Market. If the Company receives any final and non-appealable notice that the listing or quotation of the Common Shares on the Principal Market shall be terminated on a date certain, the Company shall promptly (and in any case within 24 hours) notify the Investor of such fact in writing and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Common Shares to be listed or quoted on another Principal Market.

Section 7.03 Blue Sky. The Company shall take such action, if any, as is necessary by the Company in order to obtain an exemption for or to qualify the Shares for sale by the Company to the Investor pursuant to the Transaction Documents, and at the request of the Investor, the subsequent resale of Shares by the Investor, in each case, under applicable state securities or “Blue Sky” laws and shall provide evidence of any such action so taken to the Investor from time to time during the Term; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to (x) qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify, (y) subject itself to general taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (z) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction.

Section 7.06 Exchange Act Registration.

Section 7.07 Transfer Agent Instructions. At all times while the Registration Statement is in effect for the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, the Company shall (if required by the transfer agent for the Common Shares) cause legal counsel for the Company to deliver to the transfer agent for the Common Shares (with a copy to the Investor) instructions to issue the Common Shares to the Investor free of restrictive legends upon each Advance if the delivery of such instructions are consistent with Applicable Law.

Section 7.08 Corporate Existence. The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to preserve and continue the corporate existence of the Company during the Term.

Section 7.09 Notice of Certain Events Affecting Registration. The Company will promptly notify the Investor, and confirm in writing, upon its becoming aware of the occurrence of any of the following events in respect of a Registration Statement or related Prospectus (in each of which cases the information provided to Investor will be kept strictly confidential): (i) receipt of any request for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or related Prospectus; (ii) the issuance by the SEC or any other Federal governmental authority of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; (iii) receipt of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Common Shares for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or written threat of any proceeding for such purpose; (iv) the happening of any event that makes any statement made in the Registration Statement or related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that requires the making of any changes in the Registration Statement, related Prospectus or documents so that, in the case of the Registration Statement, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and that in the case of the related Prospectus, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or of the necessity to amend the Registration Statement or supplement a related Prospectus to comply with the Securities Act or any other law; or (v) the Company’s reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement would be

- 26 -

appropriate and the Company will promptly make available to the Investor any such supplement or amendment to the related Prospectus.

If at any time the number of Common Shares authorized to be issued is not sufficient to meet the reserve requirements of this section, 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 this Agreement and recommending that stockholders vote in favor of an increase in such authorized number of shares sufficient to meet these requirements.
