Subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, upon the Company&rsquo;s issuance of a Placement Notice to the Sales Agent, and
unless the sale of the Placement Shares described therein has been declined, suspended, or otherwise terminated in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement, the Sales Agent, as agent for the Company, will use their commercially reasonable efforts consistent with their
normal trading and sales practices and applicable state and federal laws, rules and regulations and the rules of The Nasdaq Capital Market
(the &ldquo;<B><U>Exchange</U></B>&rdquo;), for the period specified in the Placement Notice, to sell such Placement Shares up to the
amount specified by the Company in, and otherwise in accordance with the terms of such Placement Notice. If acting as agent hereunder,
the Sales Agent will provide written confirmation to the Company (including by email correspondence to each of the individuals of the
Company set forth on <B><U>Schedule 2</U></B>, if receipt of such correspondence is actually acknowledged by any of the individuals to
whom the notice is sent, other than via auto-reply) no later than the opening of the Trading Day (as defined below) immediately following
the Trading Day on which it has made sales of Placement Shares hereunder setting forth the number of Placement Shares sold on such day,
the compensation payable by the Company to the Sales Agent pursuant to <U>Section 2</U> with respect to such sales, and the Net Proceeds
(as defined below) payable to the Company, with an itemization of the deductions made by the Sales Agent (as set forth in <U>Section
5(a)</U>) from the gross proceeds that it receives from such sales. Subject to the terms of the Placement Notice, the Sales Agent may
sell Placement Shares by any method permitted by law deemed to be an &ldquo;at the market&rdquo; offering as defined in Rule 415 under
the Securities Act, including without limitation sales made directly on the Exchange, on any other existing trading market for the Common
Stock or to or through a market maker. Subject to the terms of a Placement Notice, the Sales Agent may also sell Placement Shares by
any other method permitted by law, including but not limited to in negotiated transactions and block trades with the Company&rsquo;s
prior written consent. <FONT STYLE="background-color: white">The Placement Shares are to be sold by the Sales Agent on a daily basis
or otherwise as shall be agreed to by the Company and the Sales Agent on any day that is a Trading Day (other than a day on which the
Exchange is scheduled to close prior to its regular weekday closing time). The gross sales price of the Placement Shares sold under this
<U>Section 3(a)</U> shall be the market price for the Placement Shares sold by the Sales Agent under this <U>Section 3(a)</U> at the
time of such sale.</FONT> The Company acknowledges and agrees that (i) there can be no assurance that the Sales Agent will be successful
in selling Placement Shares, (ii) the Sales Agent will incur no liability or obligation to the Company or any other person or entity
if it does not sell Placement Shares for any reason other than a failure by the Sales Agent to use its commercially reasonable efforts
consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable law and regulations to sell such Placement Shares as required under
this Agreement and (iii) the Sales Agent shall be under no obligation to purchase Placement Shares on a principal basis pursuant to this
Agreement, except as otherwise agreed by the Sales Agent and the Company in writing and expressly set forth in a Placement Notice. For
the purposes hereof, &ldquo;<B><U>Trading Day</U></B>&rdquo; means any day on which the Company&rsquo;s Common Stock is purchased and
sold on the principal market on which the Common Stock is listed or quoted.</FONT></P>

any potential liabilities to third parties). On the basis of such reviews, the Company has reasonably concluded that such associated

where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 153 or Rule 172 under the Securities Act), the Company will comply in all material
respects with all requirements imposed upon it by the Securities Act, as from time to time in force, and to file on or before their respective
due dates all reports and any definitive proxy or information statements required to be filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant
to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14, 15(d) or any other provision of or under the Exchange Act. If during such period any event occurs as a
result of which the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state
a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances then existing, not misleading, or if during
such period it is necessary to amend or supplement the Registration Statement or Prospectus to comply with the Securities Act, the Company
will promptly notify the Sales Agent to suspend the offering of Placement Shares during such period and the Company will promptly amend
or supplement the Registration Statement or Prospectus (at the expense of the Company) so as to correct such statement or omission or
effect such compliance; <I>provided</I>, <I>however</I>, that the Company may delay any such amendment or supplement if, in the reasonable
judgment of the Company, it is in the best interests of the Company to do so.</FONT></P>

such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 153 or Rule 172 under the Securities Act), the Company will use its commercially reasonable

of notice of commencement of any action against such party in respect of which a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party or
parties under this <U>Section 9</U>, notify each such indemnifying party of the commencement of such action, enclosing a copy of all
papers served, but the omission so to notify such indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from (i) any liability that
it might have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this <U>Section 9</U> and (ii) any liability that it may have to any indemnified
party under the foregoing provision of this <U>Section 9</U> unless, and only to the extent that, such omission results in the forfeiture
of substantive rights or defenses by the indemnifying party. If any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies
the indemnifying party of its commencement, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in and, to the extent that it elects
by delivering written notice to the indemnified party promptly after receiving notice of the commencement of the action from the indemnified
party, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense of the action, with counsel reasonably satisfactory
to the indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense,
the indemnifying party will not be liable to the indemnified party for any legal or other expenses except as provided below and except
for the reasonable costs of investigation subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense. The indemnified
party will have the right to employ its own counsel in any such action, but the fees, expenses and other charges of such counsel will
be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (1) the employment of counsel by the indemnified party has been authorized in writing
by the indemnifying party, (2) the indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based on advice of counsel) that there may be legal defenses
available to it or other indemnified parties that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party, (3)
a conflict or potential conflict exists (based on advice of counsel to the indemnified party) between the indemnified party and the indemnifying
party (in which case the indemnifying party will not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified
party) or (4) the indemnifying party has not in fact employed counsel to assume the defense of such action within a reasonable time after
receiving notice of the commencement of the action, in each of which cases the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel
will be at the expense of the indemnifying party or parties. It is understood that the indemnifying party or parties shall not, in connection
with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges
of more than one separate firm admitted to practice in such jurisdiction at any one time for all such indemnified party or parties. All
such fees, disbursements and other charges will be reimbursed by the indemnifying party promptly as they are incurred. An indemnifying
party will not, in any event, be liable for any settlement of any action or claim effected without its written consent. No indemnifying
party shall, without the prior written consent of each indemnified party, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment
in any pending or threatened claim, action or proceeding relating to the matters contemplated by this <U>Section 9</U> (whether or not
any indemnified party is a party thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified
party from all liability arising or that may arise out of such claim, action or proceeding.</FONT></P>

<U>Contribution</U>. In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification provided for
in the foregoing paragraphs of this <U>Section 9</U> is applicable in accordance with its terms but for any reason is held to be unavailable
from the Company or the Sales Agent, the Company and the Sales Agent will contribute to the total losses, claims, liabilities, expenses
and damages (including any investigative, legal and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement
of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted, but after deducting any contribution received by the Company from persons other
than the Sales Agent, such as persons who control the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, officers of the Company who signed
the Registration Statement and directors of the Company, who also may be liable for contribution) to which the Company and the Sales
Agent may be subject in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand
and the Sales Agent on the other. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Sales Agent on the other hand
shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total Net Proceeds from the sale of the Placement Shares (before deducting expenses)
received by the Company bear to the total compensation received by the Sales Agent from the sale of Placement Shares on behalf of the
Company. If, but only if, the allocation provided by the foregoing sentence is not permitted by applicable law, the allocation of contribution
shall be made in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in the foregoing sentence but
also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Sales Agent, on the other, with respect to the statements or omission
that resulted in such loss, claim, liability, expense or damage, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations with respect to such offering. Such relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the
untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information
supplied by the Company or the Sales Agent, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity
to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Sales Agent agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions
pursuant to this <U>Section 9(d)</U> were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not
take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of
the loss, claim, liability, expense, or damage, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this <U>Section 9(d)</U> shall be
deemed to include, for the purpose of this <U>Section 9(d)</U>, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party
in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim to the extent consistent with <U>Section 9(c)</U> hereof. Notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions of this <U>Section 9(d)</U>, the Sales Agent shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the
commissions received by it under this Agreement and no person found guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section
11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
For purposes of this <U>Section 9(d)</U>, any person who controls a party to this Agreement within the meaning of the Securities Act
will have the same rights to contribution as that party (and any officers, directors, members, partners, employees or agents of the Sales
Agent and each broker dealer affiliate of the Sales Agent will have the same rights to contribution as the Sales Agent), and each officer
of the Company who signed the Registration Statement and each director of the Company will have the same rights to contribution as the
Company, subject in each case to the provisions hereof. Any party entitled to contribution, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement
of any action against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made under this <U>Section 9(d)</U>, will notify
any such party or parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission to so notify will not relieve that party or parties
from whom contribution may be sought from any other obligation it or they may have under this <U>Section 9(d)</U> except to the extent
that the failure to so notify such other party materially prejudiced the substantive rights or defenses of the party from whom contribution
is sought. Except for a settlement entered into pursuant to the last sentence of <U>Section 9(c)</U> hereof, no party will be liable
for contribution with respect to any action or claim settled without its written consent if such consent is required pursuant to <U>Section
9(c)</U> hereof.</FONT></P>
