Amendment
to Flagstaff SPA
As
previously disclosed, on November 9, 2023, Neuraxis, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a securities purchase agreement (the
“Flagstaff SPA”), with Flagstaff International, LLC (“Flagstaff International”) for the issuance and purchase
of the Company’s Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series B Preferred Stock”),
at price per share of $2.38. The aggregate purchase price of $3 million was to be paid in 15 monthly installments.
As
previously disclosed, on February 12, 2024, the Company and Flagstaff International entered into three amendments to the Flagstaff SPA
in 2024. Pursuant to the third amendment, the parties agreed to increase the investment amount from $3 million to $5 million. As of the
date of this filing, the Company has received a total of $800,000 from Flagstaff International and issued 336,132 shares of Series B
Preferred Stock to Flagstaff International.
On
October 12, 2024, the Company and Flagstaff International entered into the fourth amendment to the Flagstaff SPA (the “Fourth Amendment”)
to change the investment amount from $5 million to $1.8 million. Pursuant to the Fourth Amendment, Flagstaff International shall purchase
from the Company, and the Company shall sell to Flagstaff International, up to an additional 420,168 shares of Series B Preferred
Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $1.8 million, of which (i) $800,000 has been paid to the Company before April 30, 2024, (ii)
$500,000 is to be paid to the Company before November 27, 2024, and (iii) $500,000 is to be paid to the Company before December 31, 2024.
In addition, the Fourth Amendment provides that the Flagstaff SPA shall be terminated (i) automatically upon receipt by the Company of
the payments and the issuance of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock, (ii) by mutual written consent of the Company and Flagstaff
International, (iii) by Flagstaff International if the Company breaches or fails to perform its obligations under the Flagstaff SPA,
which breach or failure is incapable of being cured by January 9, 2025, or (iv) by the Company if Flagstaff International breaches or
fails to perform its obligations under the Flagstaff SPA, which breach or failure is incapable of being cured by January 9, 2025, or
if Flagstaff International fails to make any of the payments within 9 calendar days of the payment date.
Securities
Purchase Agreements
On
October 16, 2024, the Company entered into securities purchase agreements (the “SPAs”) with several investors (the “Investors”)
for the issuance and purchase of 60,924 shares of Series B Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $145,000.
As previously reported, the Series B Preferred Stock is convertible at any time into shares of the Company’s common stock without
any further consideration and ranks senior to the Common Stock with respect to payments upon the liquidation, dissolution and winding
up of the Company. The stated value of the Series B Preferred Stock will be $2.38 per share. The right to receive dividends and the liquidation
rights of the Series B Preferred Stock will automatically expire on June 30, 2025.
In
connection with the SPAs and the issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock, on the same day, the Company and Investors entered into Registration
Rights Agreements (the “Registration Rights Agreements”). Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreements, the Company shall
prepare and file a resale registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) within 30
days of executing the definitive documents and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective by
the Commission as soon as practicable thereafter. The Registration Rights Agreements also provide the Investors with certain piggyback

Registration Statement (including any amendments or supplements thereto and prospectuses contained therein) 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 light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading. |
3.
Piggyback Registration.
(a)
Whenever the Company proposes to register the offer and sale of any shares of its Common Stock 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 (a “Piggyback Registration Statement”)
to be used may be used for any registration of Registrable Securities (a “Piggyback Registration”), the Company shall
give prompt written notice (in any event no later than 10 days prior to the filing of such Registration Statement) to the holders of
Registrable Securities of its intention to effect such a registration and, subject to Section 3(b) and Section 3(c), 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 within 30 days after the Company’s notice has been given to each such holder. The Company
may postpone or withdraw the filing or the effectiveness of a Piggyback Registration at any time in its sole discretion. If any Piggyback
Registration Statement pursuant to which holders of Registrable Securities have registered the offer and sale of Registrable Securities
is a Registration Statement on Form S-3 or the then appropriate form for an offering to be made on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant
to Rule 415 under the Securities Act or any successor rule thereto (a “Piggyback Shelf Registration Statement”), such
holder(s) shall have the right, but not the obligation, to be notified of and to participate in any offering under such Piggyback Shelf
Registration Statement (a “Piggyback Shelf Takedown”).
(b)
If a Piggyback Registration or Piggyback Shelf Takedown is initiated as a primary underwritten offering on behalf of the Company and
the managing underwriter advises the Company and the holders of Registrable Securities (if any holders of Registrable Securities have
elected to include Registrable Securities in such Piggyback Registration or Piggyback Shelf Takedown) in writing that in its reasonable
and good faith opinion the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in such registration or takedown, including all Registrable
Securities and all other shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in such underwritten offering, exceeds the number of shares of
Common Stock which can be sold in such offering and/or that the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in any such
registration or takedown would adversely affect the price per share of the Common Stock to be sold in such offering, the Company shall
include in such registration or takedown (i) first, the shares of Common Stock that the Company proposes to sell; (ii) second, the shares
of Common Stock requested to be included therein by holders of Registrable Securities, allocated pro rata among all such holders on the
basis of the number of Registrable Securities owned by each such holder or in such manner as they may otherwise agree; and (iii) third,
the shares of Common Stock requested to be included therein by holders of Common Stock other than holders of Registrable Securities,
allocated among such holders in such manner as they may agree; provided, that in any event the holders of Registrable Securities
shall be entitled to register the offer and sale or distribute at least 50% of the securities to be included in any such registration
or takedown.
(c)
If a Piggyback Registration or Piggyback Shelf Takedown is initiated as an underwritten offering on behalf of a holder of Common Stock
other than Registrable Securities, and the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing that in its reasonable and good faith
opinion the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in such registration or takedown, including all Registrable Securities
and all other shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in such underwritten offering, exceeds the number of shares of Common Stock
which can be sold in such offering and/or that the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in any such registration
or takedown would adversely affect the price per share of the Common Stock to be sold in such offering, the Company shall include in
such registration or takedown (i) first, the shares of Common Stock requested to be included therein by the holder(s) requesting such
registration or takedown and by the holders of Registrable Securities, allocated pro rata among all such holders on the basis of the
number of shares of Common Stock other than the Registrable Securities (on a fully diluted, as converted basis) and the number of Registrable
Securities, as applicable, owned by all such holders or in such manner as they may otherwise agree; and (ii) second, the shares of Common
Stock requested to be included therein by other holders of Common Stock, allocated among such holders in such manner as they may agree.
(d)
If any Piggyback Registration or Piggyback Shelf Takedown is initiated as a primary underwritten offering on behalf of the Company, the
Company shall select the investment banking firm or firms to act as the managing underwriter or underwriters in connection with such
offering.

Registration Procedures. If and whenever the holders of Registrable Securities request that the offer and sale of any Registrable
Securities be registered under the Securities Act, the Company shall use its best efforts to affect the registration of the offer and
sale of such Registrable Securities under the Securities Act in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof, and pursuant
thereto the Company shall as soon as reasonably practicable and as applicable:
(a)
subject to Section 2(a), prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities and
use its best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective;
(b)
in the case of a Long-Form Registration or a Short-Form Registration, prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, post-effective
amendments and supplements to such Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep
such Registration Statement effective for a period of not less than 180 days, or if earlier, until all of such Registrable Securities
have been disposed of and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of such Registrable Securities
in accordance with the intended methods of disposition set forth in such Registration Statement;
(c)
within a reasonable time before filing such Registration Statement, Prospectus or amendments or supplements thereto with the Commission,
furnish to one counsel selected by holders of a majority of such Registrable Securities copies of such documents proposed to be filed,
which documents shall be subject to the review, comment and approval of such counsel;
(d)
notify each selling holder of Registrable Securities, promptly after the Company receives notice thereof, of the time when such Registration
Statement has been declared effective or a supplement to any Prospectus forming a part of such Registration Statement has been filed
with the Commission;
(e)
furnish to each selling holder of Registrable Securities such number of copies of the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement
(including each preliminary Prospectus) and any supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits and documents incorporated by
reference therein), and such other documents as such seller may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable
Securities owned by such seller;
(f)
use its best efforts to register or qualify such Registrable Securities under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of
such jurisdictions as any selling holder reasonably requests and do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary
or advisable to enable such holders to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities owned by such holders;
provided, that the Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business, subject itself to general taxation or consent
to general service of process in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to do so but for this Section 5(f);
(g)
notify each selling holder of such Registrable Securities, at any time when a Prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered
under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event that would cause the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement to contain
an untrue statement of a material fact or omit any fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading, and, at the request of any such holder, the Company shall prepare a supplement or amendment
to such Prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such Prospectus shall not contain
an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading;
(h)
make available for inspection by any selling holder of Registrable Securities, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant
to such Registration Statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any such holder or underwriter (collectively,
the “Inspectors”), all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company (collectively,
the “Records”), and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably
requested by any such Inspector in connection with such Registration Statement;
(i)
provide a transfer agent and registrar (which may be the same entity) for all such Registrable Securities not later than the effective
date of such registration;
(j)
use its best efforts to cause such Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then
listed or, if the Common Stock is not then listed, on a national securities exchange selected by the holders of a majority of such Registrable
Securities;
(k)
in connection with an underwritten offering, enter into such customary agreements (including underwriting and lock-up agreements in customary
form) and take all such other customary actions as the holders of such Registrable Securities or the managing underwriter of such offering
reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities (including, without limitation,
making appropriate officers of the Company available to participate in “road show” and other customary marketing activities
(including one-on-one meetings with prospective purchasers of the Registrable Securities));
(l)
otherwise use its best to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission and make available to its stockholders an
earnings statement (in a form that satisfies the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 under the Securities
Act or any successor rule thereto) no later than thirty (30) days after the end of the 12-month period beginning with the first day of
the Company’s first full fiscal quarter after the effective date of such Registration Statement, which earnings statement shall
cover said 12-month period, and which requirement will be deemed to be satisfied if the Company timely files complete and accurate information
on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K under the Exchange Act and otherwise complies with Rule 158 under the Securities Act or any successor rule
thereto; and
(m)
furnish to each selling holder of Registrable Securities and each underwriter, if any, with (i) a written legal opinion of the Company’s
outside counsel, dated the closing date of the offering, in form and substance as is customarily given in opinions of the Company’s
counsel to underwriters in underwritten registered offerings; and (ii) on the date of the applicable Prospectus, on the effective date
of any post-effective amendment to the applicable Registration Statement and at the closing of the offering, dated the respective dates
of delivery thereof, a “comfort” letter signed by the Company’s independent certified public accountants in form and
substance as is customarily given in accountants’ letters to underwriters in underwritten registered offerings;
(n)
without limiting Section 5(f), use its best efforts to cause such Registrable Securities to be registered with or approved by
such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the business and operations of the Company to enable
the holders of such Registrable Securities to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with their intended
method of distribution thereof;
(o)
notify the holders of Registrable Securities promptly of any request by the Commission for the amending or supplementing of such Registration
Statement or Prospectus or for additional information;
(p)
advise the holders of Registrable Securities, promptly after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of the issuance of
any stop order by the Commission suspending the effectiveness of such Registration Statement or the initiation or threatening of any
proceeding for such purpose and promptly use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or to obtain its withdrawal at
the earliest possible moment if such stop order should be issued;
(q)
permit any holder of Registrable Securities which holder, in its sole and exclusive judgment, might be deemed to be an underwriter or
a “controlling person” (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act) (a “Controlling
Person”) of the Company, to participate in the preparation of such Registration Statement and to require the insertion therein
of language, furnished to the Company in writing, which in the reasonable judgment of such holder and its counsel should be included;
(r)
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 shares of Common Stock 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 144; provided,
that the Company may satisfy its obligations hereunder without issuing physical stock certificates through the use of The Depository
Trust Company’s Direct Registration System (the “DTCDRS”);
(s)
not later than the effective date of such Registration Statement, provide a CUSIP number for all Registrable Securities and provide the
applicable transfer agent with printed certificates for the Registrable Securities which are in a form eligible for deposit with The
Depository Trust Company; provided, that the Company may satisfy its obligations hereunder without issuing physical stock certificates
through the use of the DTCDRS;
(t)
take no direct or indirect action prohibited by Regulation M under the Exchange Act; provided, that, to the extent that any prohibition
is applicable to the Company, the Company will take all reasonable action to make any such prohibition inapplicable; and
(u)
otherwise use its best efforts to take all other steps necessary to effect the registration of such Registrable Securities contemplated
hereby.
6.
Expenses. All expenses (other than Selling 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 (i) registration and filing fees (including, without limitation, any fees relating to filings required to be made with, or the listing
of any Registrable Securities on, any securities exchange or over-the-counter trading market on which the Registrable Securities are
listed or quoted); (ii) underwriting expenses (other than fees, commissions or discounts); (iii) expenses of any audits incident to or
required by any such registration; (iv) fees and expenses of complying with securities and “blue sky” laws (including, without
limitation, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company in connection with “blue sky” qualifications or exemptions
of the Registrable Securities); (v) printing expenses; (vi) messenger, telephone and delivery expenses; (vii) fees and expenses of the
Company’s counsel and accountants; (viii) Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. filing fees (if any); and (ix) reasonable
fees and expenses of one counsel for the holders of Registrable Securities participating in such registration as a group (selected by
the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities included in the registration). In addition, the Company shall be responsible
for all of its internal expenses incurred in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including,
without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties) and the expense of
any annual audits. All Selling Expenses relating to the offer and sale of Registrable Securities registered under the Securities Act
pursuant to this Agreement shall be borne and paid by the holders of such Registrable Securities, in proportion to the number of Registrable
Securities included in such registration for each such holder.
7.
Indemnification.
(a)
The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, each holder of Registrable Securities, such holder’s
officers, directors, managers, members, partners, stockholders and Affiliates, each underwriter, broker or any other Person acting on
behalf of such holder of Registrable Securities and each other Controlling Person, if any, who controls any of the foregoing Persons,
against all losses, claims, actions, damages, liabilities and expenses, joint or several, to which any of the foregoing Persons may become
subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, actions, damages, liabilities or expenses arise out of
or are based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, Prospectus, preliminary
Prospectus, free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act or any successor rule thereto) or any amendment
thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein (in the case of a Prospectus, preliminary Prospectus or free writing prospectus, in light of the circumstances
under which they were made) not misleading; and shall reimburse such Persons for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any
of them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, action, damage or liability, except insofar as the same are
caused by or contained in any information furnished in writing to the Company by such holder expressly for use therein or by such holder’s
failure to deliver a copy of the Registration Statement, Prospectus, preliminary Prospectus, free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule
405 under the Securities Act or any successor rule thereto) or any amendments or supplements thereto (if the same was required by applicable
law to be so delivered) after the Company has furnished such holder with a sufficient number of copies of the same prior to any written
confirmation of the sale of Registrable Securities. This indemnity shall be in addition to any liability the Company may otherwise have.
(b)
In connection with any registration in which a holder of Registrable Securities is participating, each such holder shall furnish to the
Company in writing such information as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or
Prospectus and, to the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify and hold harmless, the Company, each director of the Company, each officer
of the Company who shall sign such Registration Statement, each underwriter, broker or other Person acting on behalf of the holders of
Registrable Securities and each Controlling Person who controls any of the foregoing Persons against any losses, claims, actions, damages,
liabilities or expenses resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement,
Prospectus, preliminary Prospectus, free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act or any successor rule thereto)
or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a Prospectus, preliminary Prospectus or free writing prospectus, in light of
the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained
in any information so furnished in writing by such holder; provided, that the obligation to indemnify shall be several, not joint
and several, for each holder and shall not exceed an amount equal to the net proceeds (after underwriting fees, commissions or discounts)
actually received by such holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. This indemnity shall
be in addition to any liability the selling holder may otherwise have.
(c)
Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party of notice of the commencement of any action involving a claim referred to in this Section
7, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is made against an indemnifying party, give written notice to the
latter of the commencement of such action. The failure of any indemnified party to notify an indemnifying party of any such action shall
not (unless such failure shall have a material adverse effect on the indemnifying party) relieve the indemnifying party from any liability
in respect of such action that it may have to such indemnified party hereunder. In case any such action is brought against an indemnified
party, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and to assume the defense of the claims in any such action that are
subject or potentially subject to indemnification hereunder, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified to the extent
that it may wish, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after written notice from the indemnifying party
to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be responsible for any legal
or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof; provided, that, if (i) any indemnified
party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be one or more legal or equitable defenses available to such indemnified party which
are additional to or conflict with those available to the indemnifying party, or that such claim or litigation involves or could have
an effect upon matters beyond the scope of the indemnity provided hereunder, or (ii) such action seeks an injunction or equitable relief
against any indemnified party or involves actual or alleged criminal activity, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume
the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party without such indemnified party’s prior written consent (but, without
such consent, shall have the right to participate therein with counsel of its choice) and such indemnifying party shall reimburse such
indemnified party and any Controlling Person of such indemnified party for that portion of the fees and expenses of any counsel retained
by the indemnified party which is reasonably related to the matters covered by the indemnity provided hereunder. If the indemnifying
party is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim, it shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of
more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment
of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with
respect to such claim. In such instance, the conflicting indemnified parties shall have a right to retain one separate counsel, chosen
by the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities included in the registration, at the expense of the indemnifying party.
(d)
If the indemnification provided for hereunder is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party
with respect to any loss, claim, damage, liability or action referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying
such indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the amounts paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss,
claim, damage, liability or action in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the
one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such loss, claim,
damage, liability or action as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, that the maximum amount of liability
in respect of such contribution shall be limited, in the case of each holder of Registrable Securities, to an amount equal to the net
proceeds (after underwriting fees, commissions or discounts) actually received by such seller from the sale of Registrable Securities
effected pursuant to such registration. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined
by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission
to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party, whether the violation
of the Securities Act or any other similar federal or state securities laws or rule or regulation promulgated thereunder applicable to
the Company and relating to action or inaction required of the Company in connection with any applicable registration, qualification
or compliance was perpetrated by the indemnifying party or the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access
to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The parties agree that it would not be just and equitable
if contribution pursuant hereto were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method or allocation which does not take account
of the equitable considerations referred to herein. No Person guilty or liable of fraudulent misrepresentation within the meaning of
Section 11(f) of the Securities Act shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
8.
Participation in Underwritten Registrations. No Person may participate in any registration hereunder which is underwritten unless
such Person (a) agrees to sell such Person’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the
Person or Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (b) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney,
indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements; provided,
that no holder of Registrable Securities included in any underwritten registration shall be required to make any representations or warranties
to the Company or the underwriters (other than representations and warranties regarding such holder, such holder’s ownership of
its shares of Common Stock to be sold in the offering and such holder’s intended method of distribution) or to undertake any indemnification
obligations to the Company or the underwriters with respect thereto, except as otherwise provided in Section 7.
9.
Rule 144 Compliance. With a view to making available to the holders of Registrable Securities the benefits of Rule 144 and any other
rule or regulation of the Commission that may at any time permit a holder to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration,
the Company shall:
(a)
make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, at all times after the Registration
Date;
(b)
use best efforts to file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities
Act and the Exchange Act, at any time after the Registration Date; and
(c)
furnish to any holder so long as the holder owns Registrable Securities, promptly upon request, a written statement by the Company as
to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 and of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, a copy of the most recent
annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents so filed or furnished by the Company as such holder may
reasonably request in connection with the sale of Registrable Securities without registration.
10.
Preservation of Rights. The Company shall not (a) grant any registration rights to third parties which are more favorable than or
inconsistent with the rights granted hereunder, or (b) enter into any agreement, take any action, or permit any change to occur, with
respect to its securities that violates or subordinates the rights expressly granted to the holders of Registrable Securities in this
Agreement.
11.
Termination. This Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force or effect when there shall no longer be any Registrable Securities
outstanding; provided, that the provisions of Section 6 and Section 7 shall survive any such termination.
12.
Notices. All notices, requests, consents, claims, demands, waivers and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall
be deemed to have been given (a) when delivered by hand (with written confirmation of receipt); (b) when received by the addressee if
sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier (receipt requested); (c) on the date sent by facsimile or e-mail of a PDF document
(with confirmation of transmission) if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, and on the next Business Day if sent after
normal business hours of the recipient; or (d) on the third day after the date mailed, by certified or registered mail, return
receipt requested, postage prepaid. Such communications must be sent to the respective parties at the addresses indicated below (or at
such other address for a party as shall be specified in a notice given in accordance with this Section 13).

13.
Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Purchase Agreement and any related exhibits and schedules thereto, constitutes
the sole and entire agreement of the parties to this Agreement with respect to the subject matter contained herein, and supersedes all
prior and contemporaneous understandings and agreements, both written and oral, with respect to such subject matter. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in the event of any conflict between the terms and provisions of this Agreement and those of the Purchase Agreement, the
terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.
14.
Successor and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
successors and permitted assigns. The Company may assign this Agreement at any time in connection with a sale or acquisition of the Company,
whether by merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, or similar transaction, without the
consent of Investor; provided, that the successor or acquiring Person agrees in writing to assume all of the Company’s rights
and obligations under this Agreement. Investor may assign its rights hereunder to any purchaser or transferee of Registrable Securities;
provided, that such purchaser or transferee shall, as a condition to the effectiveness of such assignment, be required to execute
a counterpart to this Agreement agreeing to be treated as an Investor whereupon such purchaser or transferee shall have the benefits
of, and shall be subject to the restrictions contained in, this Agreement as if such purchaser or transferee was originally included
in the definition of an Investor herein and had originally been a party hereto.
15.
No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted
assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any legal or equitable right, benefit
or remedy of any nature whatsoever, under or by reason of this Agreement; provided, however, the parties hereto hereby acknowledge
that the Persons set forth in Section 7 are express third-party beneficiaries of the obligations of the parties hereto set forth
in Section 7.
16.
Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement.
17.
Amendment, Modification and Waiver. The provisions of this Agreement may only be amended, modified, supplemented or waived with the
prior written consent of the Company and the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities. No waiver by any party or parties shall
operate or be construed as a waiver in respect of any failure, breach or default not expressly identified by such written waiver, whether
of a similar or different character, and whether occurring before or after that waiver. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement,
no failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege arising from this Agreement shall operate or be
construed as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.
18.
Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity,
illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such
term or provision in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or unenforceable,
the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely
as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated
to the greatest extent possible.
19.
Remedies. Each holder of Registrable Securities, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery
of damages, shall be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. The Company acknowledges that monetary damages
would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Agreement and the Company
hereby agrees to waive the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.
20.
Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws
of the State of Florida without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Florida or
any other jurisdiction). Any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or based upon this Agreement or the transactions contemplated
hereby may be instituted in the federal courts of the United States or the courts of the State of Florida in each case located in the
city of Tampa and County of Hillsborough, and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such
suit, action or proceeding. Service of process, summons, notice or other document by mail to such party’s address set forth herein
shall be effective service of process for any suit, action or other proceeding brought in any such court. The parties irrevocably and
unconditionally waive any objection to the laying of venue of any suit, action or any proceeding in such courts and irrevocably waive
and agree not to plead or claim in any such court that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought
in an inconvenient forum.
21.
Waiver of Jury Trial. Each party acknowledges and agrees that any controversy which may arise under this Agreement is likely to involve
complicated and difficult issues and, therefore, each such party irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right it may have to a trial
by jury in respect of any legal action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Each party
to this Agreement certifies and acknowledges that (a) no representative of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that
such other party would not seek to enforce the foregoing waiver in the event of a legal action, (b) such party has considered the implications
of this waiver, (c) such party makes this waiver voluntarily, and (d) such party has been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among
other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 21.
22.
Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which together
shall be deemed to be one and the same agreement. A signed copy of this Agreement delivered by facsimile, e-mail or other means of electronic
transmission shall be deemed to have the same legal effect as delivery of an original signed copy of this Agreement.
23.
Further Assurances. Each of the parties to this Agreement shall, and shall cause their Affiliates to, execute and deliver such additional
documents, instruments, conveyances and assurances and take such further actions as may be reasonably required to carry out the provisions
hereof and to give effect to the transactions contemplated hereby.
