NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, and the representations, warranties, and conditions set forth below, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

(a)

Issuance of Notes. Subject to all of the terms and conditions hereof, the Company agrees to issue and sell to each of the Investors, and each of the Investors severally agrees to purchase, a secured promissory note in the form of Exhibit A hereto (each, a “Note” and, collectively, the “Notes”) in the principal amount set forth opposite the respective Investor’s name on Schedule I. The obligations of the Investors to purchase Notes are several and not joint. The Notes are being issued at an original issue discount and will not bear interest on issuance. If the Notes have not been repaid within six months after issuance, the Notes will bear interest at the SOFR rate plus nine percent (9%), and if the Notes have not been repaid within nine months after issuance, the Notes will bear interest at the SOFR rate plus twelve percent (12%). The payment of the Notes and the other Obligations is secured by the Security Agreement.

(i)

The Company will electronically submit to the New York Stock Exchange a Supplemental Listing Application (the “NYSE SLAP”) prior to the entering into of this Agreement, and will use its reasonable best efforts to have the NYSE SLAP approved by the NYSE within two weeks after the electronic submission. If the NYSE SLAP is not approved by the NYSE within two weeks after the electronic submission (the “Event”), then on the date of such Event and each monthly anniversary after the date of the Event, and until the NYSE SLAP is approved by the NYSE, the Company shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash, as a penalty, the product of 2.0% multiplied by the amount outstanding on the Notes issued to the Holder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. If the Company fails to pay any penalty pursuant to this Section in full within seven days after the date payable, the Company will pay interest thereon at a rate of 10% per annum (or such lesser maximum amount that is permitted to be paid by applicable law) to the Holder, accruing daily from the date such penalties are due until such amounts, plus all such interest thereon, are paid in full. The penalties pursuant to the terms hereof shall apply on a daily pro rata basis for any portion of a month prior to the cure the Event. Upon such time as the New York Stock Exchange SLAP has been approved by the New York Stock Exchange, the Company will issue to each Investor a warrant in the form of Exhibit B hereto (each, a “Warrant” and, collectively, the “Warrants”) to purchase up to a number of shares of common stock equal to the number of shares set forth opposite each

(ii)

If the Notes have not been repaid within six months after issuance, additional warrants will be issued to each Investor in an amount equal to the principal amount of the Note multiplied by 25%, and such quotient divided by a per share cash exercise price equal to 120% of the Volume Weighted Average Price (“VWAP”) of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“Common Stock”) during the ten (10) Trading Days immediately prior to issuance (the “Six Month Initial Exercise Price”). The Company has the right to repurchase such Warrants when the closing price of the shares of Common Stock on the market on which it is then listed or quoted exceeds 200% of the Six Month Initial Exercise Price for at least 20 out of 30 Trading Days, at a redemption price equal to the VWAP for the ten (10) days preceding the repurchase, less the exercise price, provided that the Warrant Shares are then registered pursuant to an effective registration statement or may be resold via Rule 144 and the Equity Conditions (as defined in the Warrants) are satisfied by the Company.

(iii)

If the Notes have not been repaid within nine months after issuance, additional warrants will be issued to each Investor in an amount equal to the principal amount of the Note multiplied by 25%, and such quotient divided by a per share cash exercise price equal to 120% of the VWAP of the Common Stock during the ten (10) Trading Days immediately prior to issuance (the “Nine Month Initial Exercise Price”). The Company has the right to repurchase such Warrants when the closing price of the shares of Common Stock on the market on which it is then listed or quoted exceeds 200% of the Nine Month Initial Exercise Price for at least 20 out of 30 Trading Days, at a redemption price equal to the VWAP for the ten (10) days preceding the repurchase, less the exercise price, provided that the Warrant Shares are then registered pursuant to an effective registration statement or may be resold via Rule 144 and the Equity Conditions (as defined in the Warrants) are satisfied by the Company.

(c)

Delivery. The sale and purchase of the Notes and Warrants will take place (i) at a closing (the “Closing”) to be held on November 13, 2023 or at such place and time as the Company and the Investors may otherwise determine (the “Closing Date”).

Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, the rights of each Investor hereunder are several rights, not rights jointly held with any of the other Investors. Any invalidity, illegality or limitation on the enforceability of the Agreement or any part thereof, by any Investor whether arising by reason of the law of the respective Investor’s domicile or otherwise, will in no way affect or impair the validity, legality or enforceability of this Agreement with respect to other Investors.
