EXPLANATORY NOTE
The 2018 Employee Stock Incentive
Plan, as amended (the “2018 Plan”), includes a quarterly evergreen provision that provides for automatic quarterly
increases in the number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2018 Plan (the “Quarterly Increases”). In addition,
the 2018 Plan provides that the amount of shares of common stock, par value $0.001 (the “Common Stock”), of XTI Aerospace,
Inc. (the “Registrant”) that may be issued under the 2018 Plan will not be reduced in connection with a change in the
outstanding shares of Common Stock by reason of stock dividends, stock splits, reverse stock splits, recapitalizations, mergers, consolidations,
combinations or exchanges of shares, separations, reorganizations or liquidations.
On April 27, 2018, January
25, 2019, April 19, 2019, November 1, 2019, April 13, 2020, June 4, 2021, November 22, 2021 and December 29, 2023, the Registrant filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) Registration Statements on Form S-8, Registration Nos.
333-224506, 333-229374, 333-230965, 333-234458, 333-237659, 333-256831, 333-261282 and 333-276335, respectively (collectively, the “Prior
Registration Statements”), relating to shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the 2018 Plan.
On March 12, 2024, the Registrant
(previously named Inpixon), Superfly Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Registrant (“Merger
Sub”), and XTI Aircraft Company, a Delaware corporation (“Legacy XTI”), completed a merger transaction pursuant
to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 24, 2023 and amended on December 30, 2023 and March 12, 2024 (the “Merger
Agreement”), whereby Merger Sub merged with and into Legacy XTI with Legacy XTI surviving such merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary
of the Registrant (the “Merger”). In connection with the closing of the Merger, the Registrant changed its name to
XTI Aerospace, Inc.
In connection with the Merger,
each option to purchase shares of Legacy XTI common stock outstanding as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (the
“Effective Time”) was assumed by the Registrant and converted, at the Effective Time, into an option to acquire the
number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Legacy XTI common stock subject to such option as of immediately prior
to the Effective Time multiplied by the exchange ratio of 0.0892598 and rounding that result down to the nearest whole number of shares.
In connection with the Merger, the Registrant assumed the XTI Aircraft Company 2017 Employee and Consultant Stock Ownership Plan, as amended
(the “2017 Plan”), and each such Legacy XTI option in accordance with the terms of the 2017 Plan and the terms of each
stock option agreement by which such Legacy XTI option is evidenced.
The Registrant is filing this
Registration Statement on Form S-8 to register (i) 1,053,110 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding Legacy XTI options
granted under the 2017 Plan and assumed by the Registrant pursuant to the Merger Agreement, (ii) an additional 4,983,882 shares of Common
Stock reserved and available for future issuance under the 2018 Plan as a result of Quarterly Increases, which is comprised of 3,000,000
shares of Common Stock issuable as a result of the Quarterly Increase that occurred on January 1, 2024 and 1,983,882 shares of Common
Stock issuable as a result of the Quarterly Increase that occurred on April 1, 2024, (iii) 11,313,726 shares of Common Stock that are subject to issuance
by the Company upon the exercise of outstanding options under the 2018 Plan, and (iv) an additional 47,258,933 shares of Common
Stock that have not previously been registered but are available for issuance under the 2018 Plan as a result of the 1-for-100 reverse
stock split of the outstanding shares of Common Stock that was effected on March 12, 2024 immediately prior to closing of the Merger.

Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Unless otherwise stated or
the context otherwise requires, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” and the “Registrant”
refer collectively to XTI Aerospace, Inc.
The Nevada Revised Statutes
(“NRS”) provide that we may indemnify our officers and directors against losses or liabilities which arise in their
corporate capacity. The effect of these provisions could be to dissuade lawsuits against our officers and directors.
Section 78.7502 of NRS provides
that:
(1) A corporation may indemnify
any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding,
whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, except an action by or in the right of the corporation, by reason of the fact
that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation
as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise or as a manager
of a limited-liability company, against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually
and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if the person: (a) is not liable pursuant to NRS
78.138; or (b) acted in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of
the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the conduct was unlawful.
The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its
equivalent, does not, of itself, create a presumption that the person is liable pursuant to NRS 78.138 or did not act in good faith and
in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, or that, with respect
to any criminal action or proceeding, he or she had reasonable cause to believe that the conduct was unlawful.
(2) A corporation may indemnify
any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the
right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee
or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise or as a manager of a limited-liability company, against expenses, including
amounts paid in settlement and attorneys’ fees actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or
settlement of the action or suit if the person: (a) is not liable pursuant to NRS 78.138; or (b) acted in good faith and in a manner which
he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. Indemnification may not be made for any
claim, issue or matter as to which such a person has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of any appeals
taken therefrom, to be liable to the corporation or for amounts paid in settlement to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that
the court in which the action or suit was brought or other court of competent jurisdiction determines upon application that in view of
all the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court deems proper.
(3) Any discretionary indemnification
pursuant to NRS 78.7502, unless ordered by a court or advanced pursuant to NRS 78.751(2), may be made by the corporation only as authorized
in each specific case upon a determination that the indemnification of a director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation is proper
under the circumstances. The determination must be made by: (a) the stockholders; (b) the board of directors, by majority vote of a quorum
consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding; or (c) independent legal counsel, in a written opinion,
if: (1) a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding so orders; or (2) a
quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding cannot be obtained.
NRS 78.751 provides that:
(1) A corporation shall indemnify
any person who is a director, officer, employee or agent to the extent that the person is successful on the merits or otherwise in defense
of: (a) any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, including,
without limitation, an action by or in the right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer,
employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent
of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise; or (b) any claim, issue or matter therein, against expenses
actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with defending the action, including, without limitation, attorney’s
fees.
(2) Unless otherwise restricted
by the articles of incorporation, the bylaws or an agreement made by the corporation, the corporation may pay the expenses of officers
and directors incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding as they are incurred and in advance of the final disposition
of the action, suit or proceeding, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay the amount if it
is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation.
The articles of incorporation, the bylaws or an agreement made by the corporation may require the corporation to pay such expenses upon
receipt of such an undertaking. The provisions of this subsection do not affect any rights to advancement of expenses to which corporate
personnel other than directors or officers may be entitled under any contract or otherwise by law.
(3) The indemnification pursuant
to NRS 78.751 and NRS 78.7502 and the advancement of expenses authorized in or ordered by a court pursuant to this section: (a) does not
exclude any other rights to which a person seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under the articles of incorporation
or any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, for either an action in the person’s official
capacity or an action in another capacity while holding office, except that indemnification, unless ordered by a court pursuant to NRS
78.7502 or for the advancement of expenses made pursuant to NRS 78.751(2), may not be made to or on behalf of any director or officer
finally adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of any appeals taken therefrom, to be liable for intentional misconduct,
fraud or a knowing violation of law, and such misconduct, fraud or violation was material to the cause of action; and (b) continues for
a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and inures to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators
of such a person.
(4) Unless the articles of
incorporation, the bylaws or an agreement made by a corporation provide otherwise, if a person is entitled to indemnification or the advancement
of expenses from the corporation and any other person, the corporation is the primary obligor with respect to such indemnification or
advancement.
(5) A right to indemnification
or to advancement of expenses arising under a provision of the articles of incorporation or any bylaw is not eliminated or impaired by
an amendment to such provision after the occurrence of the act or omission that is the subject of the civil, criminal, administrative
or investigative action, suit or proceeding for which indemnification or advancement of expenses is sought, unless the provision in effect
at the time of such act or omission explicitly authorizes such elimination or impairment after such act or omission has occurred.
NRS 78.752 empowers a corporation
to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or
is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and the liability and expenses incurred by him or
her in any such capacity or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the authority to indemnify
such person against such liabilities and expenses.
Article VI of our Restated
Articles of Incorporation, as amended, states that the Registrant will indemnify to the fullest extent permitted by law any person made
or threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative
or investigative (whether or not by or in the right of the Registrant) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director of the
Registrant or is or was serving as a director, officer, employee or agent of another entity at the request of the Registrant or any predecessor
of the Registrant against judgments, fines, penalties, excise taxes, amounts paid in settlement and costs, charges and expenses (including
attorneys’ fees and disbursements) that he or she incurs in connection with such action or proceeding.
Article X of our Bylaws, as
amended, provides that every person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved in any action, suit, or
proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he or a person of whom he is the legal
representative is or was a director or officer of the Registrant or is or was serving at the request of the Registrant or for its benefit
as a director or officer of another corporation, or as its representative in a partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise
shall be indemnified and held harmless to the fullest extent permissible by the Nevada Revised Statutes from time to time against all
expenses, liability and loss (including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably
incurred or suffered by him in connection therewith, except any expense or payments incurred in connection with any claim or liability
established to have arisen out of his own willful misconduct or gross negligence.

Item 9. Undertakings.
(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period
in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
|
(i) |
to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act; |
|
|
|
|
(ii) |
to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and |
|
|
|
|
(iii) |
to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement; |
provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i)
and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained
in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that
are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.
(2) That, for the purpose
of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration
by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes
that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant
to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report
pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be
a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed
to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities
arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing
provisions or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such
liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the
Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled
by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements
of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements
for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized,
in the City of Englewood, State of Colorado on June 13, 2024.

| Re: | Registration Statement on Form S-8 |
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel to
XTI Aerospace, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the filing of the Company’s registration
statement on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statement”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for the purpose
of registering under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), an aggregate of 64,609,651 shares
(the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”),
comprising (i) 1,053,110 shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the XTI Aircraft Company 2017 Employee and Consultant Stock Ownership
Plan, as amended (the “2017 Plan”), (ii) 3,000,000 additional shares of Common Stock reserved for future issuance under
the Company’s 2018 Employee Stock Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2018 Plan” and, together with the 2017 Plan,
the “Plans”), as of January 1, 2024 and 1,983,882 additional shares of Common Stock reserved for future issuance under
the 2018 Plan as of April 1, 2024, pursuant to the provisions of the 2018 Plan that provide for automatic quarterly increases in the number
of shares available for issuance under the 2018 Plan, (iii) 11,313,726 shares of Common Stock that are subject to issuance
by the Company upon the exercise of outstanding options under the 2018 Plan, and (iv) 47,258,933 shares of Common Stock that have not previously been registered
but are available for issuance under the 2018 Plan as a result of the 1-for-100 reverse stock split of the outstanding shares of Common
Stock, effective as of March 12, 2024.
For purposes of rendering
this opinion, we have examined the Plans, the Registration Statement, the Articles of Incorporation and the Bylaws of the Company, as
amended or restated, the proceedings and other actions of the Company that provide for the issuance of the Shares, and such other documents
and matters as we have deemed necessary for purposes of rendering this opinion. We have assumed the authenticity of all documents
submitted to us as originals, the conformity to originals of all documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies and the
authenticity of the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies. We have also assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons
who have executed documents examined by us, the genuineness of all signatures on all documents examined by us, the authority of such persons
signing on behalf of the parties thereto other than the Company and the due authorization, execution and delivery of all documents by
the parties thereto other than the Company. In rendering the opinion set forth below, we have assumed that certificates evidencing the
Shares, if any, will be signed by the authorized officers of the Company and registered by the transfer agent and registrar and will conform
to the specimen certificate for the Common Stock. In addition, we have assumed that the resolutions of the Company’s board of directors
or its applicable committee authorizing the Company to issue and deliver the Shares will be in full force and effect at all times at which
such Shares are issued and delivered by the Company, and that the Company will take no action inconsistent with such resolutions.

Based upon and subject to
the foregoing, it is our opinion that the Shares have been duly authorized and, when issued, delivered and paid for in accordance with
the Plans and in the manner described in the Registration Statement and the related prospectus, will be validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable.
This opinion is opining upon
and is limited to the current federal laws of the United States and the Nevada Revised Statutes. We express no opinion with respect to
the effect or applicability of the laws of any other jurisdiction. We assume no obligation to revise or supplement this opinion letter
should the laws of such jurisdiction be changed after the date hereof by legislative action, judicial decision, or otherwise.
We hereby consent to the filing
of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. In giving our consent, we do not hereby admit that we are
in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act.
Sincerely,

AIRCRAFT COMPANY
2017
EMPLOYEE AND CONSULTANT STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN
AS
AMENDED OCTOBER 27, 2021
The
purposes of this Plan are:
| (a) | to
reward, retain and provide additional incentives to the Employees and Directors; |
| (b) | to
provide consideration to Consultants for services rendered to the Company; and |
| (c) | to
promote the success of the Company’s business. |
The
Plan permits the grant of Restricted Stock Units, Incentive Stock Options and Nonstatutory Stock Options.
| 2. | Stock Subject to the Plan. |
(a)
Stock Subject to the Plan.
Subject
to Section 10 of the Plan, the maximum aggregate number of Shares that may be subject to Awards under the Plan is 30,000,000 Shares.
(b)
Lapsed Awards.
For
purposes of this limitation, the Shares underlying any Awards that are forfeited, canceled, withheld upon exercise of an Option or Restricted
Stock Unit or settlement of an Award to cover the exercise price or tax withholding, reacquired by the Company prior to vesting, satisfied
without the issuance of further Shares or otherwise terminated (other than by exercise), in each case shall be added back to the Shares
available for issuance under the Plan. Subject to such overall limitations, Shares may be issued up to such maximum number pursuant to
any type or types of Award. The Shares available for issuance under the Plan may be authorized but unissued Shares or Shares reacquired
by the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing and, subject to Section 10, the maximum number of Shares that may be issued upon the exercise
of Incentive Stock Options will equal the aggregate Share number stated in Section 2(a), plus, to the extent allowable under Code Section
422 and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, any Shares that become available for issuance under the Plan pursuant to this
Section 2(b).
(c)
Share Reserve.
The
Company, during the term of this Plan, will at all times reserve and keep available such number of Shares as will be sufficient to satisfy
the requirements of the Plan.
XTI Aircraft Company 2017 Option Plan, as amended October 27, 2021 |

| 3. | Administration
of the Plan. |
(a)
Plan Administrator.
The
Plan shall be administered by the Board or a delegate appointed by the Board in its absolute discretion.
(b)
Powers of the Administrator.
Subject
to the provisions of the Plan, the Administrator will have the authority, in its discretion:
| (i) | to
determine the Fair Market Value; |
| (ii) | to
select the Employees and Consultants to whom Awards may be granted hereunder; |
| (iii) | to
determine the number of Shares to be covered by each Award granted hereunder; |
| (iv) | to
approve forms of Award Agreements for use under the Plan; |
| (v) | to
determine the terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, of any Award
granted hereunder. Such terms and conditions include, but are not limited to, the exercise
price, the time or times when Awards may be exercised (which may be based on performance
criteria), any vesting acceleration or waiver of forfeiture restrictions, and any restriction
or limitation regarding any Award or the Shares relating thereto, based in each case on such
factors as the Administrator will determine; |
| (vii) | to
construe and interpret the terms of the Plan and Awards granted pursuant to the Plan; |
| (viii) | to
prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan, including, if required,
rules and regulations relating to sub-plans established for the purpose of satisfying applicable
foreign laws or for qualifying for favorable tax treatment under applicable foreign laws; |
| (ix) | to
modify or amend each Award (subject to Section 15(c) of the Plan), including but not
limited to the discretionary authority to extend the post-termination exercisability period
of Awards; provided, however, that in no case will an Option or Restricted Stock Unit be
extended beyond its original maximum term; |
| (x) | to
allow Participants to satisfy withholding tax obligations in a manner prescribed in Section
11; |
| (xi) | to
authorize any person to execute on behalf of the Company any instrument required to effect
the grant of an Award previously granted by the Administrator; |
XTI Aircraft Company 2017 Option Plan, as amended October 27, 2021 |
Page 2 of 16 |
| (xii) | to
allow a Participant to defer the receipt of the payment of cash or the delivery of Shares
that otherwise would be due to such Participant under an Award; and |
| (xiii) | to
make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable for administering the Plan. |
(c)
Effect of Administrator’s Decision.
The
Administrator’s decisions, determinations and interpretations will be final and binding on all Participants and any other holders
of Awards and will be given the maximum deference permitted by Applicable Laws.
Nonstatutory
Stock Options and Restricted Stock Units may be granted to Consultants and Employees. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to
Employees.
(a)
Grant of Options.
Subject
to the terms and provisions of the Plan, the Administrator, at any time and from time to time, may grant Options in such amounts as the
Administrator, in its sole discretion, will determine.
(b)
Option Agreement.
Each
Award of an Option will be evidenced by an Award Agreement that will specify the exercise price, the term of the Option, the number of
Shares subject to the Option, the exercise restrictions, if any, applicable to the Option, and such other terms and conditions as the
Administrator, in its sole discretion, will determine.
(c)
Limitations.
Each
Option will be designated in the Award Agreement as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonstatutory Stock Option. Notwithstanding
such designation, however, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options
are exercisable for the first time by the Participant during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and any Parent or Subsidiary)
exceeds $100,000, such Options will be treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options. For purposes of this Section 5(c), Incentive Stock Options
will be taken into account in the order in which they were granted, the Fair Market Value of the Shares will be determined as of the
time the Option with respect to such Shares is granted, and calculation will be performed in accordance with Code Section 422 and
Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder.
XTI Aircraft Company 2017 Option Plan, as amended October 27, 2021 |
Page 3 of 16 |
(d)
Term of Option.
The
term of each Option will be stated in the Award Agreement; provided, however, that the term will be no more than 10 years from the date
of grant thereof. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Participant who, at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted,
owns stock representing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary,
the term of the Incentive Stock Option will be 5 years from the date of grant or such shorter term as may be provided in the Award Agreement.
(e)
Option Exercise Price and Consideration.
| (i) | Exercise
Price. The per Share exercise price for the Shares to be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option will be determined by the Administrator,
but will be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant. In addition, in the case of an Incentive Stock
Option granted to an Employee who owns stock representing more than 10% of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or
any Parent or Subsidiary, the per Share exercise price will be no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5(e)(i), Options may be granted with a per Share exercise price of less
than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant pursuant to a transaction described in, and in a manner consistent
with, Code Section 424(a). |
| (ii) | Waiting
Period and Exercise Dates. At the time an Option is granted, the Administrator will fix the period within which the Option may be
exercised and will determine any conditions that must be satisfied before the Option may be exercised. |
| (iii) | Form
of Consideration. The Administrator will determine the acceptable form of consideration for exercising an Option, including the method
of payment. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the Administrator will determine the acceptable form of consideration at the time
of grant. Such consideration may consist entirely of: (1) cash; (2) check; (3) promissory note, to the extent permitted by Applicable
Laws, (4) other Shares, provided that such Shares have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate exercise price
of the Shares as to which such Option will be exercised and provided further that accepting such Shares will not result in any adverse
accounting consequences to the Company, as the Administrator determines in its sole discretion; (5) consideration received by the Company
under cashless exercise program (whether through a broker or otherwise) implemented by the Company in connection with the Plan; (6) by
net exercise, (7) such other consideration and method of payment for the issuance of Shares to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws,
or (8) any combination of the foregoing methods of payment. In making its determination as to the type of consideration to accept, the
Administrator will consider if acceptance of such consideration may be reasonably expected to benefit the Company. |
XTI Aircraft Company 2017 Option Plan, as amended October 27, 2021 |
Page 4 of 16 |
(f)
Exercise of Option.
| (i) | Procedure
for Exercise; Rights as a Stockholder. Any Option granted hereunder will be exercisable according to the terms of the Plan and at
such times and under such conditions as determined by the Administrator and set forth in the Award Agreement. An Option may not be exercised
for a fraction of a Share. |
An
Option will be deemed exercised when the Company receives: (i) notice of exercise (in such form as the Administrator may specify
from time to time) from the person entitled to exercise the Option, and (ii) full payment for the Shares with respect to which the
Option is exercised (together with applicable tax withholding). Full payment may consist of any consideration and method of payment authorized
by the Administrator and permitted by the Award Agreement and the Plan. Shares issued upon exercise of an Option will be issued in the
name of the Participant or, if requested by the Participant, in the name of the Participant and his or her spouse. Until the Shares are
issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), no
right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder will exist with respect to the Shares subject to an Option, notwithstanding
the exercise of the Option. The Company will issue (or cause to be issued) such Shares promptly after the Option is exercised. No adjustment
will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the Shares are issued, except as provided in
Section 10 of the Plan.
Exercising
an Option in any manner will decrease the number of Shares thereafter available, both for purposes of the Plan and for sale under the
Option, by the number of Shares as to which the Option is exercised.
| (ii) | Termination
of Relationship. If a Participant who is an Employee ceases to be an Employee, other than upon the Participant’s termination
as the result of the Participant’s death or Disability, the Participant may exercise his or her Option within 90 days of termination
or resignation, or such longer period of time as is specified in the Award Agreement (but in no event later than the expiration of the
term of such Option as set forth in the Award Agreement) to the extent that the Option is vested on the date of termination or resignation.
Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, if on the date of termination or resignation the Participant is not vested as to his
or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option will revert to the Plan. If after termination the Participant
does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified by the Administrator, the Option will terminate, and the Shares covered
by such Option will revert to the Plan. |
XTI Aircraft Company 2017 Option Plan, as amended October 27, 2021 |
Page 5 of 16 |
| (iii) | Disability
of Participant. If a Participant who is an Employee ceases to be an Employee as a result of the Participant’s Disability, the
Participant may exercise his or her Option within 6 months of termination, or such longer period of time as is specified in the Award
Agreement (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Award Agreement) to the extent the
Option is vested on the date of termination. Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, if on the date of termination the Participant
is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option will revert to the Plan. If after
termination the Participant does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified herein, the Option will terminate, and the
Shares covered by such Option will revert to the Plan. |
| (iv) | Death
of Participant. If a Participant who is an Employee dies while he is an Employee or a Consultant who has executed an Award Agreement
with the Company dies, the Option may be exercised within 6 months following the Participant’s death, or within such longer period
of time as is specified in the Award Agreement (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in
the Award Agreement) to the extent that the Option is vested on the date of death, by the Participant’s designated beneficiary,
provided such beneficiary has been designated prior to the Participant’s death in a form acceptable to the Administrator. If no
such beneficiary has been designated by the Participant, then such Option may be exercised by the personal representative of the Participant’s
estate or by the person(s) to whom the Option is transferred pursuant to the Participant’s will or in accordance with the laws
of descent and distribution. Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, if at the time of death Participant is not vested as to
his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option will immediately revert to the Plan. If the Option
is not so exercised within the time specified herein, the Option will terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option will revert to
the Plan. |
(a)
Grant.
Restricted
Stock Units may be granted at any time and from time to time as determined by the Administrator. After the Administrator determines that
it will grant Restricted Stock Units, the Administrator will advise the Participant in an Award Agreement of the terms, conditions, and
restrictions related to the grant, including the number of Restricted Stock Units.

Page 6 of 16 |
(b)
Vesting Criteria and Other Terms.
The
Administrator will set vesting criteria in its discretion, which, depending on the extent to which the criteria are met, will determine
the number of Restricted Stock Units that will be paid out to the Participant. The Administrator may set vesting criteria based upon
the achievement of Company-wide, business unit, or individual goals (including, but not limited to, continued employment or service),
or any other basis determined by the Administrator in its discretion.
(c)
Earning Restricted Stock Units.
Upon
meeting the applicable vesting criteria, the Participant will be entitled to receive a payout as determined by the Administrator. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, at any time after the grant of Restricted Stock Units, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may reduce or waive
any vesting criteria that must be met to receive a payout.
(d)
Form and Timing of Payment.
Payment
of earned Restricted Stock Units will be made as soon as practicable after the date(s) determined by the Administrator and set forth
in the Award Agreement. The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may settle earned Restricted Stock Units in cash, Shares, or a combination
of both.
(e)
Cancellation.
On
the date set forth in the Award Agreement, all unearned Restricted Stock Units will be forfeited to the Company.
| 7. | Compliance
With Code Section 409A. |
Awards
will be designed and operated in such a manner that they are either exempt from the application of, or comply with, the requirements
of Code Section 409A such that the grant, payment, settlement or deferral will not result in either gross income inclusion under
Code Section 409A(a)(1)(A) or the additional tax or interest applicable under Code Section 409A(a)(1)(B), except as otherwise determined
in the sole discretion of the Administrator. The Plan and each Award Agreement under the Plan is intended to meet the requirements
of Code Section 409A and will be construed and interpreted in accordance with such intent, except as otherwise determined in the
sole discretion of the Administrator. To the extent that an Award or payment, or the settlement or deferral thereof, is subject to Code
Section 409A the Award will be granted, paid, settled or deferred in a manner that will meet the requirements of Code Section 409A,
such that the grant, payment, settlement or deferral will not be subject to gross income inclusion or the additional tax or interest
applicable under Code Section 409A. In no event will the Company have any obligation under the terms of this Plan to reimburse a
Participant for any taxes or other costs that may be imposed on Participant as a result of Section 409A.

| 8. | Leaves
of Absence/Transfer Between Locations. |
Unless
the Administrator provides otherwise, vesting of Awards to Employees granted hereunder will be suspended during any unpaid leave of absence.
A Participant who is an Employee will not cease to be an Employee in the case of (i) any leave of absence approved by the Company
or (ii) transfers between locations of the Company or between the Company, its Parent, or any Subsidiary. For purposes of Incentive
Stock Options, no such leave may exceed 3 months, unless reemployment upon expiration of such leave is guaranteed by statute or contract.
If reemployment upon expiration of a leave of absence approved by the Company is not so guaranteed, then 6 months following the first
day of such leave, any Incentive Stock Option held by the Participant will cease to be treated as an Incentive Stock Option and will
be treated for tax purposes as a Nonstatutory Stock Option.
| 9. | Limited
Transferability of Awards. |
(a)
Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, Awards may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, or otherwise transferred in
any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the Participant,
only by the Participant. If the Administrator makes an Award transferable, such Award may only be transferred (i) by will, (ii) by the
laws of descent and distribution, or (iii) as permitted by Rule 701 under the Securities Act.
(b)
Further, until the Company becomes subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, or after the Administrator
determines that it is, will, or may no longer be relying upon the exemption from registration under the Exchange Act as set forth in
Rule 12h-1(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act (the “Rule 12h-1(f) Exemption”), an Option, or prior to exercise, the Shares
subject to the Option, may not be pledged, hypothecated or otherwise transferred or disposed of, in any manner, including by entering
into any short position, any “put equivalent position” or any “call equivalent position” (as defined in Rule
16a-1(h) and Rule 16a-1(b) of the Exchange Act, respectively), other than to (i) persons who are “family members” (as defined
in Rule 701(c)(3) under the Securities Act) through gifts or domestic relations orders, or (ii) to an executor or guardian of the Participant
upon the death or disability of the Participant, in each case, to the extent required for continued reliance on the Rule 12h-1(f) Exemption.
Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may determine to permit transfers to the Company or
in connection with a Change in Control or other acquisition transactions involving the Company to the extent permitted by Rule 12h-1(f)
or, if the Company is not relying on the Rule 12h-1(f) Exemption, to the extent permitted by the Plan.
| 10. | Adjustments;
Dissolution or Liquidation; Merger or Change in Control. |
(a)
Adjustments.
In
the event that any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Shares, other securities, or other property), recapitalization,
stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or exchange of
Shares or other securities of the Company, or other change in the corporate structure of the Company affecting the Shares occurs, the
Administrator, in order to prevent diminution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under
the Plan, will adjust the number and class of shares of stock that may be delivered under the Plan and/or the number, class, and price
of shares of stock covered by each outstanding Award.
XTI Aircraft Company 2017 Option Plan, as amended October 27, 2021 |
Page 8 of 16 |
(b)
Dissolution or Liquidation.
In
the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Administrator will notify each Participant as soon as practicable
prior to the effective date of such proposed transaction. To the extent it has not been previously exercised, an Award will terminate
immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action.
(c)
Merger or Change in Control.
In
the event of a merger of the Company with or into another corporation or other entity or a Change in Control, each outstanding Award
will be treated as the Administrator determines (subject to the provisions of the following paragraph) without a Participant’s
consent, including, without limitation, that (i) Awards will be assumed, or substantially equivalent awards will be substituted,
by the acquiring or succeeding corporation (or an affiliate thereof) with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares
and prices; (ii) outstanding Awards will vest and become exercisable, realizable, or payable, or restrictions applicable to an Award
will lapse, in whole or in part prior to or upon consummation of such merger or Change in Control, and, to the extent the Administrator
determines, terminate upon or immediately prior to the effectiveness of such merger or Change in Control; (iii) the termination of an
Award in exchange for an amount of cash and/or property, if any, equal to the amount that would have been attained upon the exercise
of such Award or realization of the Participant’s rights as of the date of the occurrence of the transaction (and, for the avoidance
of doubt, if as of the date of the occurrence of the transaction the Administrator determines in good faith that no amount would have
been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Participant’s rights, then such Award may be terminated by
the Company without payment); or (v) any combination of the foregoing. In taking any of the actions permitted under this subsection 10(c),
the Administrator will not be obligated to treat all Awards, all Awards held by a Participant, or all Awards of the same type, similarly.
In
the event that the successor corporation does not assume or substitute for the Award (or portion thereof), the Participant will fully
vest in and have the right to exercise all of his or her outstanding Options, including Shares as to which such Awards would not otherwise
be vested or exercisable, unless specifically provided otherwise under the applicable Award Agreement or other written agreement between
the Participant and the Company, as applicable. In addition, if an Option is not assumed or substituted in the event of a merger or Change
in Control, the Administrator will notify the Participant in writing or electronically that the Option will be exercisable for a period
of time determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion, and the Option will terminate upon the expiration of such period.
For
the purposes of this subsection 10(c), an Award will be considered assumed if, following the merger or Change in Control, the Award confers
the right to purchase or receive, for each Share subject to the Award immediately prior to the merger or Change in Control, the consideration
(whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received in the merger or Change in Control by holders of Common Stock for each
Share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration
chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the merger
or Change in Control is not solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent, the Administrator may, with the consent of
the successor corporation, provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise of an Option or the payout of a Restricted
Stock Unit for each Share subject to such Award, to be solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent equal in fair market
value to the per share consideration received by holders of Common Stock in the merger or Change in Control.

Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Section 10(c), and unless otherwise provided in any Award Agreement, if an Award that vests, is earned
or paid out under any Award Agreement potentially would, if effected, give rise to a plan failure under Code Section 409A(a)(1) and the
tax consequences specified therein, payment of any amount that is otherwise payable under this Section shall be postponed under the earliest
time that such payment may be made without triggering a plan failure and the attendant tax consequences specified in Code Section 409A(a)(1).
(a)
Withholding Requirements. Prior to the delivery of any Shares or cash pursuant to an Award (or exercise thereof), the Company
will have the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or require a Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy
federal, state, local, foreign or other taxes (including the Participant’s FICA obligation) required to be withheld with respect
to such Award (or exercise thereof).
(b)
Withholding Arrangements. The Administrator, in its sole discretion and pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time
to time, may permit a Participant to satisfy such tax withholding obligation, in whole or in part by such methods as the Administrator
shall determine, including, without limitation, (i) paying cash, (ii) electing to have the Company withhold otherwise deliverable
Shares having a fair market value equal to the minimum statutory amount required to be withheld or such greater amount as the Administrator
may determine if such amount would not have adverse accounting consequences, as the Administrator determines in its sole discretion,
(iii) delivering to the Company already-owned Shares having a fair market value equal to the statutory amount required to be withheld
or such greater amount as the Administrator may determine, in each case, provided the delivery of such Shares will not result in any
adverse accounting consequences, as the Administrator determines in its sole discretion, (iv) selling a sufficient number of Shares
otherwise deliverable to the Participant through such means as the Administrator may determine in its sole discretion (whether through
a broker or otherwise) equal to the amount required to be withheld, or (v) any combination of the foregoing methods of payment. The amount
of the withholding requirement will be deemed to include any amount which the Administrator agrees may be withheld at the time the election
is made, not to exceed the amount determined by using the maximum federal, state or local marginal income tax rates applicable to the
Participant with respect to the Award on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined. The fair market value of
the Shares to be withheld or delivered will be determined as of the date that the taxes are required to be withheld.

| 12. | No
Effect on Employment or Service. |
Neither
the Plan nor any Award will confer upon a Participant any right with respect to continuing the Participant’s relationship as a
Consultant or Employee with the Company or its Subsidiaries or Parents (if any), as applicable, nor will they interfere in any way with
the Participant’s right or the right of the Company and its Subsidiaries or Parents (if any), as applicable to terminate such relationship
at any time, with or without cause, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws.
The
date of grant of an Award will be, for all purposes, the date on which the Administrator makes the determination granting such Award,
or such other later date as is determined by the Administrator. Notice of the determination will be provided to each Participant within
a reasonable time after the date of such grant.
Subject
to Section 18 of the Plan, the Plan will become effective upon the later of its adoption by the Board or the date determined by the Board.
Unless sooner terminated under Section 15, it will continue in effect for a term of 10 years from the date adopted by the Board.

and Termination of the Plan. |
(a)
Amendment and Termination.
The
Board may at any time amend, alter, suspend or terminate the Plan.
(b)
Stockholder Approval.
The
Company will obtain stockholder approval of any Plan amendment to the extent necessary and desirable to comply with Applicable Laws.
(c)
Effect of Amendment or Termination.
No
amendment, alteration, suspension or termination of the Plan will impair the rights of any Participant, unless mutually agreed otherwise
between the Participant and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the Participant and the Company. Termination
of the Plan will not affect the Administrator’s ability to exercise the powers granted to it hereunder with respect to Awards granted
under the Plan prior to the date of such termination.

| 16. | Conditions
Upon Issuance of Shares. |
(a)
Legal Compliance.
Shares
will not be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Award unless the exercise of such Award and the issuance and delivery of such Shares
will comply with Applicable Laws and will be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance.
(b)
Investment Representations.
As
a condition to the exercise of an Award, the Company may require the person exercising such Award to represent and warrant at the time

inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction or to complete or comply with the requirements
of any registration or other qualification of the Shares under any state, federal or foreign law or under the rules and regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission, the stock exchange on which Shares of the same class are then listed, or any other governmental
or regulatory body, which authority, registration, qualification or rule compliance is deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary
or advisable for the issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, will relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to
issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority, registration, qualification or rule compliance will not have been obtained.
The
Plan will be subject to approval by the stockholders of the Company within twelve (12) months after the date the Plan is adopted by the
Board. Such stockholder approval will be obtained in the manner and to the degree required under Applicable Laws.

Act, to the extent the Company is relying on the Rule 12h-1(f) Exemption, then during the period of reliance on the applicable exemption

Rule 12h-1(f) Exemption) or Rule 701 of the Securities Act (if the Company is relying on the exemption pursuant to Rule 701 of the Securities
Act).

This Award Agreement (referred to below as this
“Agreement”) spells out the terms and conditions of the stock option (the “Option”) granted to you by XTI Aircraft
Company, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), pursuant to the 2017 Employee and Consultant Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”)
on and as of the Grant Date designated above. Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used in this Agreement have the respective
meanings set forth in the Plan. The Plan, as in effect on the date of this Agreement and as it may be amended from time to time, is incorporated

Pursuant to the approval and direction of the
Administrator, the Company hereby grants you an Option to purchase all or any part of the number of Shares Granted set forth above of

For the avoidance of doubt, only Incentive Stock Options, and not Nonstatutory Stock Options, will be treated as incentive stock options
within the meaning of Code Section 422 and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. If you are not a resident or citizen of the
United States, the Company is not liable to you for any loss, damage or liability you may incur in your country of residence by participating
in the Plan and receiving this Award.
2. Vesting/Exercise/Expiration.
The Employee or Consultant may not exercise the
Option prior to each Vesting Date set forth above absent action by the Administrator to waive or alter such restrictions or as may be

to the extent it is vested, at any time and from time to time until the close of business on the Expiration Date set forth above, subject,
in the event of a Change in Control, to the Administrator’s exercise of its discretion under Section 10 of the Plan. The Option
may be exercised to purchase any number of whole shares of Common Stock, except that no purchase shall be for less than ten (10) full
shares, or the remaining unexercised shares, if less. Any Option is deemed to be “outstanding” until it has been exercised
in full or expired pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

Act, the Exchange Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, and the
Truth in Negotiations Act, or any rules or regulations thereunder. |
| b. | if you receive either Incentive Stock Options or Nonstatutory Stock Options, you violate any material
obligation that you may have to the Company during or after your employment or consultancy with the Company, including but not limited
to any non-competition, non-solicitation, confidentiality, non-disparagement or other restrictive covenant, to which you have agreed either
orally or in writing. |

notice (a) shall be signed by you or (in the event of your death) your legal representative, (b) shall specify the number of full shares
then elected to be purchased, and (c) shall be accompanied by payment in full of the Exercise Price of the shares to be purchased. Payment
may be made in cash or by check payable to the order of the Company, and such payment shall include any tax withholding obligation, as
set forth in Section 8 below. Alternatively, the Administrator may allow for one or more of the following methods of exercising an Option:
| a. | Payment for shares as to which an Option is being exercised and/or payment of any federal, state, local
or other tax withholding obligations may be made by transfer to the Company of shares of Common Stock you already own, or any combination
of such shares and cash, having a fair market value determined at the time of exercise of the Option equal to, but not exceeding, the
Exercise Price and/or the tax withholding obligation, as the case may be. |
| b. | A “same day sale” transaction pursuant to which a third party (engaged by your or the Company)
loans funds to you to enable you to purchase the shares and pay any tax withholding obligations, and then sells a sufficient number of
the exercised shares on your behalf to enable you to repay the loan and any fees. The remaining shares and/or cash are then delivered
by the third party to you. |
| c. | A “net exercise” transaction, pursuant to which the Company delivers to you the net number
of whole shares remaining from the portion of the Option being exercised after deduction of a number of shares of Common Stock with a
Fair Market Value equal to the exercise price and a number of shares of Common Stock with a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of any
tax withholding obligations. |
As promptly as practicable after receipt of such
notice and payment (including payment with respect to any tax withholding obligations), subject to Section 8 below, the Company shall
cause to be issued and delivered to you (or in the event of your death to your legal representative, as the case may be), certificates
for the shares of Common Stock so purchased. Alternatively, such shares may be issued and held in book entry form.
5. Tax Withholding.
The Company may make such provisions and take
such actions as it may deem necessary or appropriate for the withholding of any Federal, state, local income and employment taxes and
other taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to this Agreement, including, but not limited to, deducting the amount of any
such withholding taxes from the amount to be paid hereunder, whether in Common Stock or in cash, or from any other amount then or thereafter
payable to you, or requiring you or your beneficiary or legal representative to pay to the Company the amount required to be withheld
or to execute such documents as the Administrator or its designee deems necessary or desirable to enable the Company to satisfy its withholding
obligations. The Company may refuse to deliver Common Stock if you, your beneficiary or legal representative fail to comply with your
or its obligations under this Section. Regardless of any action the Company takes with respect to any or all income tax, social security,
payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Taxes”) that you are required to bear pursuant to all applicable
laws, any and all Taxes are your responsibility.
6. Limited Transferability.
You may not sell, transfer, pledge, assign or
otherwise alienate or hypothecate this Agreement (or any rights thereunder), whether voluntarily or involuntarily or by operation of law,
other than in accordance with the Plan. During your lifetime this Agreement and all rights granted hereunder shall be exercisable only
by you.
7. Rights as Shareholder.
You shall have no rights as a shareholder of the
Company with respect to the shares of Common Stock subject to this Agreement until such time as the purchase price has been paid and a
certificate of stock for such shares has been issued to you or such shares of Common Stock have been recorded in your name in book entry
form. Except as provided in Section 9 below, no adjustment shall be made for dividends or distributions or other rights with respect to
such shares for which the record date is prior to the date on which you become the holder of record thereof. Anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, if a law or any regulation of the Securities and Exchange Commission or of any other body having jurisdiction shall require
the Company or you to take any action before shares of Common Stock can be delivered to you hereunder, then the date of delivery of such
shares may be delayed accordingly.
8. Securities Laws.
Provided the Company is not subject to the reporting
requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, you hereby represent that you are acquiring the shares of Common Stock for investment
and with no present intention of selling or transferring them and that you will not sell or otherwise transfer the shares except in compliance
with all applicable securities laws and requirements of any stock exchange on which the shares of Common Stock may then be listed.
9. Change in Common Stock.
In the event of any change in Common Stock by
reason of any stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, split-up, merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, or of any similar
change affecting Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock subject to this Agreement and the Exercise Price shall be equitably
adjusted by the Administrator in accordance with the Plan.
10. No Guarantee of Employment or Retainer.
Nothing in this Award Agreement shall interfere
with or limit in any way the right of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to terminate your employment or consultancy at any time,
nor confer upon you or any Employee or Consultant any right to continue in the employ of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. No Employee
or Consultant shall have a right to be selected to be granted an Option or any other Award under the Plan.
11. Administrator Authority; Recoupment.
It is expressly understood that the Administrator
is authorized to administer, construe, and make all determinations necessary or appropriate for the administration of the Plan and this
Agreement, including the enforcement of any recoupment policy, all of which shall be binding upon you and any claimant. Any inconsistency
between this Agreement and the Plan shall be resolved in favor of the Plan.
12. Amendment or Modification, Waiver.
Except as set forth in the Plan, no provision
of this Agreement may be amended or waived unless the amendment or waiver is agreed to in writing, signed by you and by a duly authorized
officer of the Company. No waiver of any condition or provision of this Agreement shall be deemed a waiver of a similar or dissimilar
condition or provision at the same time, any prior time or any subsequent time.
13. Governing Law and Jurisdiction.
This Agreement is governed by the substantive
and procedural laws of the state of Delaware. You and the Company shall submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of, and venue in, the courts
in Delaware in any dispute relating to this Agreement.
14. Conformity with Applicable Law.
If any provision of this Agreement is determined
to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality
or unenforceability shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement or the validity,
legality or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction, but this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in
such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.
15. Successors.
This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure
to the benefit of any successor or successors of the Company and any person or persons who shall, upon your death, acquire any rights
hereunder.
This Agreement contains highly sensitive and confidential
information. Please handle it accordingly. Once you have read and understood this Agreement, please sign and date the document below to
certify and confirm your agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement and to acknowledge your receipt of the disclosure
documentation required by the Securities Act and Exchange Act (as applicable), the Plan and this Agreement and your acceptance of the
