SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

Exhibit 10.6

THE COMMON STOCK REFERRED TO IN THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION. THE COMMON STOCK MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT (1) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR (2) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, IN EACH CASE IN ACCORDANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND THE SECURITIES LAWS OF OTHER JURISDICTIONS, AND IN THE CASE OF A TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION, UNLESS THE COMPANY HAS RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO IT THAT SUCH TRANSACTION DOES NOT REQUIRE REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND SUCH OTHER APPLICABLE LAWS.

This Subscription Agreement (this “Agreement”) has been entered into by and between the purchaser set forth on the Omnibus Signature Page hereof (the “Purchaser”) and Aspen-1 Acquisition Inc. (to be renamed “Deep Isolation Nuclear, Inc.” upon consummation of the Merger (as defined below)), a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with a private placement offering (the “Offering”) by the Company of shares of its Common Stock (as defined below).

R E C I T A L S

A. The Company is offering, pursuant to this Agreement and the Other Subscription Agreements (as defined below), an aggregate of 6,666,667 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a purchase price of $3.00 per share (the “Per Share Purchase Price”), for an aggregate purchase price of $20,000,000 (the “Minimum Offering Amount”), and a maximum of 10,000,000 shares of Common Stock at the Per Share Purchase Price for an aggregate purchase price of $30,000,000 (the “Maximum Offering Amount”).

B. The Company may also sell an additional 3,333,333 shares of Common Stock at the Per Share Purchase Price for an aggregate purchase price of $10,000,000 to cover over-subscriptions (the “Over-Subscription Option”), in the event the Offering is oversubscribed.

C. The Initial Closing (as defined below) in an amount no less than the Minimum Offering Amount, including any Insider Investment (as defined below), is contingent upon, and shall be consummated simultaneously with, the closing of a reverse triangular merger in accordance with the terms of that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, to be dated on or prior to the Initial Closing Date (as defined below) (the “Merger Agreement”), that will be by and among the Company, a newly formed, wholly owned acquisition subsidiary of the Company that will be formed in Delaware (“Merger-Sub”), and Deep Isolation, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Deep Isolation” and collectively with the Company and Merger Sub, the “Merger Parties”), pursuant to which Merger-Sub will merge with and into Deep Isolation, with Deep Isolation continuing as the surviving entity in the merger as a wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”), and pursuant to which all of the outstanding capital stock of Deep Isolation will be cancelled in exchange for shares of the Company’s Common Stock, and all options issued and outstanding under the Deep Isolation 2018 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2018 EIP”) will be accelerated and vested and (i) if exercised, exchanged for Common Stock of the Company, at the same ratio at which outstanding shares of Deep Isolation are exchanged, or (ii) if unexercised, will remain outstanding and be exchanged or “rolled over” for options of the Company, and the Company will assume the 2018 EIP for such “rollover” purposes (with appropriate adjustments to account for amount and exercise price based on the exchange ratio). The total number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock that will be issued to pre-Merger stockholders and option holders of Deep Isolation is expected to be 50,000,000 (subject to rounding for fractions) shares. Before the Initial Closing, the Company’s board of directors (the “Board of Directors”) will have adopted an equity incentive plan reserving 5,000,000 additional authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock (which amount will represent approximately 7.8% of the Company’s fully diluted capitalization at the Initial Closing Date, assuming sale of the Minimum Offering Amount and excluding shares of Common Stock subject to issuance upon exercise of the Placement Agent Warrants (as defined herein)) for the future issuance, at the discretion of the Board, of options and other equity incentive awards to officers, key employees, consultants and directors of the Company and its Subsidiaries (the “EIP”). In accordance with the terms of the EIP, the number of shares initially reserved for issuance under the EIP will be increased annually on the first day of each year beginning in 2027, at the discretion of the Board of Directors, in an amount up to four percent (4.0%) of the shares of stock outstanding (on an as-converted basis) on the last day of the immediately preceding year. Holders of Common Stock of the Company prior to the Merger will retain in the aggregate 2,166,667 shares of Common Stock after the Merger (and any shares of Common Stock owned by such holders immediately prior to the Merger in excess of the 2,166,667 to be retained immediately after the Merger will be surrendered by such Holders to the Company at the effective time of the Merger and canceled by the Company). On or before the consummation of the Merger, the Company will change its name to “Deep Isolation Nuclear, Inc.”

D. Certain current officers, directors, and stockholders of Deep Isolation and their respective friends and family (collectively, the “Insider Investors”) will purchase an aggregate amount of at least $5,000,000 of shares of Common Stock in the Offering at the Per Share Purchase Price (an “Insider Investment”). The amount purchased by the Insider Investors shall count towards the achievement of the Minimum Offering Amount and the Maximum Offering Amount. The Placement Agents (as defined below), together with their respective officers, directors, shareholders, employees and other affiliates (the “Placement Agent Investors”) may (but are not obligated to) also purchase shares of Common Stock in the Offering (a “Placement Agent Investment”), and to the extent they do so, such purchases will also be counted towards the achievement of the Minimum Offering Amount and the Maximum Offering Amount.

E. Prior to the Initial Closing of the Offering, Deep Isolation may issue up to $250,000 of securities convertible into Common Stock at the Offering Price upon the Initial Closing of the Offering (the “Convertible Securities”). The aggregate face amount of such Convertible Securities converted into Common Stock will be included in the gross proceeds of the Offering for purposes of meeting the Minimum Offering and the Maximum Offering.

F. The Shares (as defined below) subscribed for pursuant to this Agreement have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Securities Act”), or any state or foreign securities Law. The Offering is being made on a reasonable best-efforts basis only to “accredited investors,” as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act, in reliance upon the exemption from securities registration afforded by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D. For purposes of this Agreement, “Law” or “Laws” means any federal, state, local or foreign or provincial statute, law (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any statutory, common, or civil law), ordinance, rule, regulation, order, injunction, decree or agency requirement having the force of law or any undertaking to or agreement with any Governmental Authority (as defined below).

G. The Merger Parties intend to treat the Merger, together with the Initial Closing and the Subsequent Closing, if relevant, as an exchange of property to the Company in exchange for stock, other property or money within the meaning of Section 351(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

The minimum subscription amount for each purchaser in the Offering is $25,000 or 8,333 Shares). The Company may accept subscriptions for less than $25,000 from any Purchaser in the Offering in its sole discretion.

(ii) In connection with the Offering, the Company has entered or will enter into other subscription agreements in the same form and containing the same terms and conditions as this Agreement (each, an “Other Subscription Agreement”) for shares of Common Stock (“Other Shares”) with purchasers in the Offering other than the Purchaser, including the Insider Investors (collectively, “Other Purchasers”).

(b) Subscription Procedure; Closing.

(i) Initial Closing. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the initial closing of the Offering shall take place upon the satisfaction (or waiver as provided herein) of the conditions set forth in Section 5 and Section 6 of this Agreement (other than those conditions that by their nature will be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction (or waiver as provided herein) of such conditions) or at such other time and place as is mutually agreed to by the Company and the Placement Agent(s) contingent upon and simultaneously with the closing of the Merger (the “Initial Closing” and the date that the Initial Closing occurs, the “Initial Closing Date”).

(ii) Subsequent Closings. If the Maximum Offering Amount is not sold at the Initial Closing, at any time prior to June 23, 2025 (or such later date as the Company and the Placement Agent(s) may mutually agree, without notice to or consent from the Purchaser or any Other Purchaser), subject to the satisfaction (or waiver as provided herein) of the conditions set forth in Section 5 and Section 6 of this Agreement (other than those conditions that by their nature will be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction (or waiver as provided herein) of such conditions) (each a “Subsequent Closing” and collectively the “Subsequent Closings” and the date that a Subsequent Closing occurs, a “Subsequent Closing Date”), the Company may sell in the Offering additional shares of Common Stock up to the Maximum Offering Amount, and if there are over-subscriptions, additional shares of Common Stock may be sold at the Per Share Purchase Price in connection with the Over-Subscription Option (collectively, the “Subsequent Closing Shares”) to such persons as may be approved by the Company and who are reasonably acceptable to the Placement Agent(s), including the Purchaser. Any Subsequent Closing Shares issued and sold to the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 1 (b) (ii) shall be deemed to be “Shares” for all purposes under this Agreement.

The Initial Closing and the Subsequent Closings, if any, shall be known collectively herein as the “Closings” or individually as a “Closing.” The Initial Closing Date and the Subsequent Closing Dates are each referred to herein as a “Closing Date.” Closings may take place remotely via the exchange by electronic transmission of documents and signatures.

Pending the applicable Closing, such funds will be held for the Purchaser’s benefit in the escrow account established for the Offering (the “Escrow Account”), without interest or offset.

(C) Termination. This Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect, and any amounts deposited into the Escrow Account by or on behalf of the Purchaser shall be returned to the Purchaser or its designee promptly, without interest, charges, withholding or offset, if (i) the Purchaser and the Company agree in writing to terminate this Agreement prior to the applicable Closing, (ii) the subscription has been revoked in full by the Purchaser in accordance with Section 8, (iii) prior to the applicable Closing, in the Purchaser’s sole and absolute discretion, upon written notice to the Company, if any representation or warranty of the Company set forth in Section 3 hereof shall be or shall have become inaccurate or the Company shall have breached or failed to perform any of its covenants or other agreements set forth in this Agreement, which inaccuracy, breach or failure to perform would give rise to the failure to satisfy any of the conditions set forth in Section 6(a) or Section 6(b) of this Agreement and which inaccuracy, breach or failure to perform cannot be cured by the Company or, if capable of being cured, is not cured within two (2) Business Days of the Purchaser’s notice to the Company thereof; or (iv) the Merger Agreement is terminated pursuant to its terms. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Business Day” means a day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, on which commercial banks in New York City are open for the general transaction of business. The Company shall promptly (and in any event within one (1) Business Day) provide the Purchaser with written notice of the termination of the Merger Agreement.

(D) Company Discretion. The Purchaser understands and agrees that, prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company, the Company, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to accept or reject this Purchaser’s tender of this subscription for Shares, in whole or in part. The Company and the Purchaser shall have no obligation hereunder until the Company shall execute and deliver to the Purchaser an executed copy of this Agreement.

2. Placement Agents. The Benchmark Company, LLC, Seaport Global Securities LLC and Dinosaur Financial Group, LLC (each a “Placement Agent” and together the “Placement Agents”), each a U.S.-registered broker-dealer, have been engaged by the Company as the Company’s co-exclusive placement agents, on a reasonable “best efforts” basis, for the Offering. The Placement Agents, collectively, (a) will be paid at each Closing from the Offering proceeds a total cash commission of ten percent (10.0%) of the gross Purchase Price paid by the Purchaser and the aggregate gross purchase price paid by all Other Purchasers (other than Insider Investors) in the Offering at that Closing, or four percent (4.0%) of the gross Purchase Price paid by the Purchaser if it is an Insider Investor and by all Other Purchasers that are Insider Investors (the “Cash Fee”) and (b) will receive (i) at each Closing warrants to purchase a total number of shares of Common Stock equal to eight percent (8.0%) of the number of shares of Common Stock sold in the Offering at that Closing (other than to Insider Investors), with a term expiring five (5) years after the Initial Closing Date and an exercise price of $3.00 per share (the “A Warrants”) and (ii) at the first Closing of the Offering warrants to purchase an aggregate of 166,667 shares of Common Stock with the same term as the A Warrants and an exercise price of $0.0001 per share (the “B Warrants” and collectively with the A Warrants, the “Placement Agent Warrants”). Each of the Placement Agent Warrants shall be transferable by the holder thereof only to an affiliate of the initial holder thereof unless at the time of transfer the Common Stock is then listed for, or admitted to, trading on a national securities exchange. Any sub-agent of a Placement Agent that introduces investors to the Offering will be entitled to share in the Cash Fee and A Warrants attributable to those investors pursuant to the terms of an executed sub-agent agreement with such Placement Agent. The Company has agreed to pay certain other expenses of the Placement Agents, including the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses of their counsel, in connection with the Offering. (For avoidance of doubt, no Cash Fee will be paid and no Placement Agent Warrants will be issuable in respect of the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the acceleration and vesting of options to acquire Company shares or the conversion or exchange of the Company convertible securities that may be outstanding, if any, the proceeds of which will be included in the gross proceeds of the Offering.)

The Company and each of its Subsidiaries is a corporation or limited liability company, as the case may be, duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation, and has the requisite corporate or limited liability company power to own, lease and operate its properties and to carry on its business as currently conducted and as described in the Delivered Super 8-K.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Subsidiary” means, with respect to the Company, any corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture or other legal entity of any kind (i) of which more than fifty percent (50%) of the capital stock or other equity interests or voting power are, directly or indirectly, controlled, owned or held by, or (ii) that is, at the time any determination is made, controlled (whether by voting power, Contract (as defined below) or otherwise) by, in each case, the Company (either alone or through or together with one or more of its other Subsidiaries); provided, that for all purposes of the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in this Agreement, whether made as of the date hereof or as of the applicable Closing Date, Deep Isolation and its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be Subsidiaries of the Company regardless of whether the Merger has been consummated.

(b) Authorization, Enforcement, Compliance with Other Instruments.

DI Majority Stockholder Approval is the only approval required by the stockholders of Deep Isolation required to approve the Merger Agreement, the Merger and the consummation of the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

The Purchaser understands that such discussions, as well as any Disclosure Materials provided by the Company and/or a Placement Agent (at the Company’s direction), were intended to describe the aspects of the Company’s business and prospects and the Offering which the Company believes to be material and, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement (as modified or qualified by the disclosures on the Disclosure Schedule or, except in the case of the Company Fundamental Representations, in the Delivered Super 8-K (excluding any disclosures contained under the heading “Risk Factors,” any disclosures of risks included in any “forward looking statements” or disclosures that are cautionary, predictive or forward-looking in nature)), the Company makes no representation or warranty with respect to the completeness of such information and makes no representation or warranty of any kind with respect to any information provided by or on behalf of any entity other than the Company and its Subsidiaries. Some of such information may include projections as to the future performance of the Company, which projections are made by the Company in good faith but are subject to numerous uncertainties outside the Company’s control and may not be realized, actual results may differ substantially from those set forth in the projections, may be based on assumptions which may not prove to be correct and may be subject to numerous factors beyond the Company’s control. The Purchaser acknowledges that he, she, or it is not relying upon any person or entity, other than the Company and its Subsidiaries and its and their officers and directors, in making its investment or decision to invest in the Company. In entering into this Agreement, the Purchaser has not relied on any oral or, except as otherwise expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents or the Disclosure Materials, written information provided by the Company, Deep Isolation, any Placement Agent, or by their respective affiliates, agents, employees, representatives or trustees, or by any other agent or broker. No agent, employee or representative of the Company, Deep Isolation or any Placement Agent or other agent or broker has been authorized to make, and the Purchaser has not relied on, any statements other than those expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents or the Disclosure Materials. Without limiting or derogating from Section 3(ff), the Purchaser understands and represents that he, she or it is purchasing the Shares notwithstanding the fact that the Company may disclose in the future certain material information the Purchaser has not received that is not required to be disclosed in the Super 8-K, including (without limitation) financial statements of the Company and/or Deep Isolation for the current fiscal period, and any subsequent period financial statements that will be filed with the SEC, that he, she or it is not relying on any such information in connection with his, her or its purchase of the Shares. Each Purchaser has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as such Purchaser has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to his, her or its acquisition of the Shares.

(g) The Purchaser acknowledges that neither the Company nor any Placement Agent is acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of the Purchaser (or in any similar capacity) with respect to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and that no investment advice has been given by the Company, any Placement Agent or any of their respective representatives or agents in connection with the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The Purchaser further represents to the Company that the Purchaser’s decision to enter into the Transaction Documents has been based solely on the independent evaluation by the Purchaser and the Purchaser’s representatives (if any).

(h) As of the applicable Closing, all actions on the part of the Purchaser, and its officers, directors and partners, if applicable, necessary for the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement and the performance of all obligations of the Purchaser hereunder and thereunder shall have been taken, and this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, assuming due execution by the parties hereto and thereto, constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity or applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar Laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of creditors’ rights and remedies and, with respect to any rights to indemnity or contribution contained in the Transaction Documents, as such rights may be limited by state or federal laws or public policy underlying such laws.

(i) The Purchaser represents that neither it nor, to its knowledge, any person or entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with it, nor any person having a beneficial interest in the Purchaser, nor any person on whose behalf the Purchaser is acting: (i) is a person listed in the Annex to Executive Order No. 13224 (2001) issued by the President of the United States (Executive Order Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions with Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism); (ii) is named on the List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons maintained by the U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control; (iii) is a non-U.S. shell bank or is providing banking services indirectly to a non-U.S. shell bank; (iv) is a senior non-U.S. political figure or an immediate family member or close associate of such figure; or (v) is otherwise prohibited from investing in the Company pursuant to applicable U.S. anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist and asset control Laws, regulations, rules or orders (categories (i) through (v), each a “Prohibited Purchaser”). The Purchaser (A) agrees to provide the Company, promptly upon request, all information that the Company reasonably deems necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable U.S. anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist and asset control Laws, regulations, rules and orders and (B) consents to the disclosure to U.S. regulators and law enforcement authorities by the Company and its Affiliates and agents of such information about the Purchaser as the Company reasonably deems necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable U.S. anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist and asset control Laws, regulations, rules and orders. If the Purchaser is a financial institution that is subject to the USA Patriot Act, the Purchaser represents that it has met all of its obligations under the USA Patriot Act. The Purchaser acknowledges that if, following its investment in the Company, the Company reasonably believes that the Purchaser is a Prohibited Purchaser or is otherwise engaged in suspicious activity or refuses to promptly provide information that the Company requests, the Company has the right or may be obligated to prohibit additional investments, segregate the assets constituting the investment in accordance with applicable regulations or immediately require the Purchaser to transfer the Shares. The Purchaser further acknowledges that neither the Purchaser nor any of the Purchaser’s Affiliates or agents will have any claim against the Company or Deep Isolation for any form of damages as a result of any of the foregoing actions.

(j) If the Purchaser is an Affiliate of a non-U.S. banking institution (a “Foreign Bank”), or if the Purchaser receives deposits from, makes payments on behalf of, or handles other financial transactions related to a Foreign Bank, the Purchaser represents and warrants to the Company that: (1) the Foreign Bank has a fixed address, other than solely an electronic address, in a country in which the Foreign Bank is authorized to conduct banking activities; (2) the Foreign Bank maintains operating records related to its banking activities; (3) the Foreign Bank is subject to inspection by the banking authority that licensed the Foreign Bank to conduct banking activities; and (4) the Foreign Bank does not provide banking services to any other Foreign Bank that does not have a physical presence in any country and that is not a regulated Affiliate.

(k) The Purchaser or its duly authorized representative realizes that because of the inherently speculative nature of businesses of the kind conducted and contemplated by the Company, the Company’s financial results may be expected to fluctuate from month to month and from period to period and will, generally, involve a high degree of financial and market risk that could result in substantial or, at times, even total losses for investors in securities of the Company. The Purchaser has considered the risk factors in the Delivered Super 8-K before deciding to invest in the Shares.

(l) The Purchaser is not subscribing for Shares as a result of or subsequent to any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television, radio, or the internet, or presented at any seminar or meeting, or any solicitation of a subscription by a person not previously known to the Purchaser in connection with investments in securities generally.

(m) The Purchaser acknowledges that no U.S. federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed upon the Shares or made any finding or determination as to the fairness, suitability or wisdom of any investments therein.

(n) Other than consummating the transactions contemplated hereunder, the Purchaser has not directly or indirectly, nor has any individual or entity acting on behalf of or pursuant to any understanding with the Purchaser, executed any purchases or sales, including Short Sales (as defined below), of the securities of the Company during the period commencing at the time the Purchaser was first contacted by the Company or any other individual or entity representing the Company (including a Placement Agent) regarding the transactions contemplated hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of the Purchaser being a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of the Purchaser’s assets and the portfolio managers do not communicate or share information with, and have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by, the portfolio managers managing other portions of the Purchaser’s assets, the representation set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Shares covered by this Agreement. Other than to other individuals or entities party to this Agreement, or to the Purchaser’s representatives, agents or advisors, such Purchaser has maintained the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in connection with this transaction (including the existence and terms of this transaction). Notwithstanding the foregoing, for avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall constitute a representation or warranty, or preclude any actions, with respect to the identification of the availability of, or securing of, available shares to borrow in order to effect Short Sales or similar transactions in the future. For purposes of this Agreement, “Short Sales” means all “short sales” as defined in Rule 200 of Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act (but shall not be deemed to include the location and/or reservation of borrowable shares of Common Stock).

(o) The Purchaser is aware that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of the Shares and other activities with respect to the Shares by the Purchaser, and will comply with such anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M.

(p) All of the information concerning the Purchaser set forth herein, and any other information furnished by the Purchaser in writing to the Company or a Placement Agent for use in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, is true, correct and complete in all material respects as of the date of this Agreement, and, if there should be any material change in such information prior to the Purchaser’s purchase of the Shares, the Purchaser will promptly furnish revised or corrected information to the Company.

(q) The Purchaser has reviewed with its own tax advisors the U.S. federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences of this investment and the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. With respect to such matters, the Purchaser has relied, is relying and will rely solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents, written or oral. The Purchaser understands that it (and not the Company) shall be responsible for its own tax liability that may arise as a result of this investment or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.

(r) If the Purchaser is not a United States person (as defined by Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended), the Purchaser hereby represents that it has satisfied itself as to the observance in all material respects of the Laws of its jurisdiction in connection with any invitation to subscribe for the Shares or any use of this Agreement, including (a) the legal requirements within its jurisdiction for the purchase of the Shares; (b) any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase; (c) any governmental or other consents that may need to be obtained; and (d) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may be relevant to the purchase, holding, redemption, sale or transfer of the Shares. The Purchaser’s subscription and payment for and continued beneficial ownership of the Shares will not violate any applicable securities or other Laws of the Purchaser’s jurisdiction.

(s) The Purchaser represents that it is not a “foreign person” for purposes of Section 721 of the Defense Production Act of 1950 (as amended) or the rules or regulations promulgated thereunder (including 31 C.F.R. Part 800 and 31 C.F.R. part 801); provided, however, that if the Purchaser is a “foreign person” for such purposes, it agrees that it will not (i) obtain any control rights over the Company, including the ability to determine, direct, or decide important matters affecting the Company; (ii) have access to any material nonpublic technical information in the possession of the company; (iii) obtain membership or observer rights on the Board of Directors or the right to nominate an individual to a position on the Board of Directors; or (iv) have any involvement, other than through voting of shares, in substantive decision making of the Company regarding the use, development, acquisition or release of the Company’s technology.

(t) (For ERISA plans only) The fiduciary of the ERISA plan (the “Plan”) represents that such fiduciary has been informed of and understands the Company’s investment objectives, policies and strategies, and that the decision to invest “plan assets” (as such term is defined in ERISA) in the Company is consistent with the provisions of ERISA that require diversification of plan assets and impose other fiduciary responsibilities. The Purchaser fiduciary or Plan (a) is responsible for the decision to invest in the Company; (b) is independent of the Company or any of its Affiliates; (c) is qualified to make such investment decision; and (d) in making such decision, the Purchaser fiduciary or Plan has not relied primarily on any advice or recommendation of the Company or any of its Affiliates.

(u) If the Purchaser is a Covered Person, neither the Purchaser nor, to the Purchaser’s knowledge, any of its directors, executive officers, other officers that may serve as a director or officer of any company in which it invests, general partners or managing members is subject to any Disqualification Events, except for Disqualification Events covered by Rule 506(d)(2)(ii) or (iii) under the Securities Act, and disclosed reasonably in advance of the applicable Closing in writing in reasonable detail to the Company.

(v) The Purchaser understands that there are substantial restrictions on the transferability of the Shares and that the certificates or book-entry positions representing the Shares shall bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of such certificates or other instruments):

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND THE RULES AND REGULATIONS PROMULGATED THEREUNDER (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND NEITHER SUCH SECURITIES NOR ANY INTEREST THEREIN MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED, ASSIGNED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED UNLESS (1) A REGISTRATION STATEMENT WITH RESPECT THERETO IS EFFECTIVE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR (2) AN EXEMPTION FROM SUCH REGISTRATION EXISTS AND THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, WHICH COUNSEL AND OPINION ARE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY, THAT SUCH SECURITIES MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED, ASSIGNED OR TRANSFERRED IN THE MANNER CONTEMPLATED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR (3) SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT.

In addition, if the Purchaser is an Affiliate of the Company, certificates or book-entry positions evidencing the Shares issued to the Purchaser may bear a customary “Affiliates” legend.

Any fees (with respect to the Company's transfer agent for the Common Stock (the “Transfer Agent”), counsel or otherwise) associated with the removal of such legend(s) shall be borne by the Company.

Upon the receipt by the Company of a request from Purchaser and subject to receipt by the Company and its Transfer Agent from the Purchaser of customary representations and other customary documentation reasonably required by the Transfer Agent in connection therewith, the Company shall be obligated to promptly reissue unlegended certificates or book entry positions at such time as the securities evidenced by such book entry positions (x) are sold pursuant to Rule 144 or another applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act has been satisfied, provided that Rule 144 or such other applicable exemption is available and, if the Transfer Agent requires an opinion, the Company shall cause its legal counsel to deliver an opinion in a form reasonably acceptable to the Transfer Agent, to the effect that the removal of such restrictive legends in such circumstances may be effected under the Securities Act or (y) are sold pursuant to an effective resale registration statement under the Securities Act, provided that if the Transfer Agent requires an opinion, the Company shall cause its legal counsel to deliver an opinion in a form reasonably acceptable to the Transfer Agent, to the effect that the removal of such restrictive legends in such circumstances may be effected under the Securities Act, or (z) are covered by an effective resale registration statement under the Securities Act and are Legend Removal Shares (as defined in the next sentence). If a resale registration statement under the Securities Act covering the Shares becomes effective, then the Company shall cause legal counsel to the Company, at the Company’s expense: (a) to issue to the Transfer Agent for the Common Stock, within one (1) Trading Day after the effective date thereof, a “blanket” legal opinion in customary form to the effect that the Shares covered by the Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) have been registered for resale under the Securities Act and, if such counsel has received a signed certificate in the form attached as Exhibit B to the Registration Rights Agreement (a “Legend Removal Certificate”) from the holder of the Shares, (subject to the assumption by such counsel that such holder complies with the covenants set forth in such signed certificate) may then be reissued without any legend or restriction relating to their status as “restricted securities” as defined in Rule 144 (“Legend Removal Shares”), or, otherwise, may then be reissued without any legend or restriction relating to their status as “restricted securities” as defined in Rule 144 upon resale pursuant to such registration statement; and (b) promptly to amend such opinion to cause the Shares to be Legend Removal Shares after later receipt of a Legend Removal Certificate from the holder. Under the foregoing circumstances, the Company shall direct its Transfer Agent to issue unlegended shares, in the case of clause (x) above, within one (1) Trading Day after the Transfer Agent’s receipt of such opinion or, in the case of clause (y) above, within one (1) Trading Day after the Transfer Agent’s receipt of such legal opinion with respect to Legend Removal Shares or otherwise within one (1) Trading Day after the Transfer Agent’s receipt of evidence in customary form that the Shares have been sold pursuant to an effective resale registration statement under the Securities Act, in either case via DWAC or as otherwise requested by the holder.

(w) If the Purchaser is an individual, then the Purchaser resides in the state or province identified in the address of the Purchaser set forth on such Purchaser’s Omnibus Signature Page to this Agreement; if the Purchaser is a partnership, corporation, limited liability company or other entity, then the office or offices of the Purchaser in which its principal place of business is identified in the address or addresses of the Purchaser set forth on such Purchaser’s Omnibus Signature Page to this Agreement.

(x) The Purchaser understands that (i) the Company prior to the Merger will have been a “shell company” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, and that upon filing with the SEC of the Super 8-K reporting the consummation of the Merger and related transactions and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and otherwise containing “Form 10 information” discussed below, the Company will reflect therein that it is no longer a shell company; and (ii) pursuant to Rule 144(i), securities issued by a current or former shell company (including the Shares) that otherwise meet the holding period and other requirements of Rule 144 nevertheless cannot be sold in reliance on Rule 144 until one (1) year after the Company (a) is no longer a shell company; and (b) has filed current “Form 10 information” (as defined in Rule 144(i)) with the SEC reflecting that it is no longer a shell company, and provided that at the time of a proposed sale pursuant to Rule 144, the Company is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and has filed all reports and other materials required to be filed by Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as applicable, during the preceding twelve (12) months (or for such shorter period that the issuer was required to file such reports and materials), other than Form 8-K reports. As a result, the restrictive legends on certificates or book-entry positions for the Shares cannot be removed except in connection with (i) an actual sale meeting the foregoing requirements or (ii) pursuant to an effective registration statement.

(y) The Purchaser, if and to the extent that it purchases Shares in any Subsequent Closing, represents that it (i)(A) has a substantive, pre-existing relationship with the Company or (B) had direct contact by the Company or a Placement Agent outside of the Offering, and (ii) did not contact the Company or a Placement Agent or become interested in the Offering as a result of reading or otherwise being aware of the Super 8-K or any press release or any other public disclosure disclosing the terms of the Offering.

(z) To effectuate the terms and provisions hereof, the Purchaser hereby appoints each of the Placement Agents as its attorney-in-fact for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of the Escrow Agreement, including, without limitation, taking any action on behalf of, or at the instruction of, the Purchaser and executing any release notices required under the Escrow Agreement and taking any action and executing any instrument that a Placement Agent may deem necessary or advisable (and lawful) to accomplish the purposes hereof, in each case, subject to and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. All lawful acts done under the foregoing authorization are hereby ratified and approved, and no Placement Agent nor any designee nor agent thereof shall be liable in connection therewith for any acts of commission or omission, for any error of judgment, for any mistake of fact or law except for acts of fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct. This power of attorney, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable while the Escrow Agreement remains in effect.

5. Conditions to Company’s Obligations at Closing. The Company’s obligation to complete the sale and issuance of the Shares and deliver the Shares to the Purchaser and to consummate the other transactions contemplated hereby at the Initial Closing and, if applicable, a Subsequent Closing, shall be subject to the satisfaction or written waiver by the Company (in whole or in part) of the following conditions, to the extent such condition can be waived, in its sole discretion, on or prior to the Initial Closing Date and each Subsequent Closing Date, as applicable (provided, that any waiver by the Company of the condition set forth in Section 5 (f) shall require the prior written consent of the Purchaser):

(a) In addition to the indemnity to be provided to the Purchaser in the applicable Registration Rights Agreement, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser and its Affiliates, and its and their respective directors, officers, stockholders, equity holders, members, managers, partners, investment advisers, employees, attorneys, consultants, representatives and agents (and any other persons with a functionally equivalent role of a person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title), each person who controls the Purchaser (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, stockholders, equity holders, members, managers, partners, investment advisers, employees, attorneys, consultants, representatives and agents (and any other persons with a functionally equivalent role of a person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title) of such controlling person (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnitees”), from and against all losses, liabilities, claims, damages, costs, fees, charges, Taxes, judgements, fines, penalties and expenses whatsoever (including, but not limited to, amounts paid in settlement and any and all out-of-pocket expenses, including attorneys’ fees and expenses, incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation commenced or threatened) (collectively, “Indemnified Liabilities”) arising out of or relating to: (i) the inaccuracy, violation or breach of any of the Company’s representations or warranties made in Section 3 of this Agreement; (ii) any breach or failure to perform by the Company of any of its covenants and obligations contained herein or (iii) any Action brought or made against such Purchaser Indemnitee by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf of the Company) and arising out of, relating to or resulting from (A) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of this Agreement, the Merger Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including the issuance of the Shares and the Merger, or (B) the status of the Purchaser as an investor in the Company pursuant to the transactions contemplated hereby or by the other Transaction Documents. To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by the Company may be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable for any reason, the Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities that is permissible under applicable Law. The liability of the Company under this paragraph shall not exceed the Purchase Price paid by the Purchaser hereunder, except in the case of fraud. The Purchaser Indemnitees are intended third party beneficiaries of the provisions of this Section 7, entitled to enforce such provisions as if directly party to this Agreement.

(b) The Company shall have the right to control the investigation and defense of any Action for which a Purchaser Indemnitee may be entitled to indemnification hereunder with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Purchaser Indemnitee, at the sole cost and expense of the Company, upon written notice to the applicable Purchaser Indemnitee; provided, that (i) such notice contains confirmation that the Company has agreed to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnitee (subject to the limitations on indemnification set forth herein) for the Indemnified Liabilities arising out of, relating to or resulting from such Action and (ii) the Company shall not be entitled to assume or control the investigation and defense, if (A) such claim seeks non-monetary, equitable or injunctive relief or alleges any violation of criminal Law or (B) the Company is also a party and the Purchaser Indemnitee determines in good faith after consultation with counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to such Purchaser Indemnitee that are different or additional to those available to the Company. If the Company assumes the investigation and defense of such Action in accordance herewith, the Purchaser Indemnitee may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and participate in the investigation and defense of such Action.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser Indemnitee, the Company shall not, and shall not cause or permit any of its Subsidiaries or its or their respective Related Parties to, negotiate, consent to or enter into any settlement, or consent to the entry of any judgment, with respect to any Action for which such Purchaser Indemnitee may be entitled to indemnification hereunder, unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such Purchaser Indemnitee from all liability arising out of such proceeding, (ii) does not require any admission of wrongdoing or failure to act by any Purchaser Indemnitee, and (iii) does not obligate or require any Purchaser Indemnitee to take, or refrain from taking, any action.

(d) The Purchaser acknowledges on behalf of itself and each Purchaser Indemnitee that, other than (i) for Actions seeking specific performance of the obligations under this Agreement; or (ii) in the case of a breach or violation of this Agreement by the Company which has resulted from either (A) intentional fraud or (B) a willful and intentional act or a willful and intentional failure to act in either case with actual knowledge that the act or failure to act constituted or would result in a breach or violation, in each case, the sole and exclusive remedy of the Purchaser and the Purchaser Indemnitees with respect to any and all claims relating to this Agreement shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions (including the limitations thereof) set forth in this Section 7.

8. Revocability; Binding Effect. The subscription hereunder may be revoked, in whole or in part, prior to the Initial Closing or any Subsequent Closing, as applicable, in the sole discretion of the Purchaser, for any reason or no reason, provided that written notice of revocation is sent and is received by the Company or a Placement Agent at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Initial Closing Date or the applicable Subsequent Closing Date, as applicable. The Purchaser hereby acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement shall survive the death or disability of the Purchaser and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns. If the Purchaser is more than one person, the obligations of the Purchaser hereunder shall be joint and several and the agreements, representations, warranties and acknowledgments herein shall be deemed to be made by and be binding upon each such person and such person’s heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns.

9. Miscellaneous.

(a) Use of Proceeds. The Company shall use the net proceeds from the Offering as set forth in the Term Sheet.

(b) Modification. Prior to the Initial Closing, this Agreement shall not be amended, modified or waived except by an instrument in writing signed by the Company and the Purchaser. Following the Initial Closing, this Agreement shall not be amended, modified or waived except by an instrument in writing signed by the Company and the Purchasers that hold at least a majority of the outstanding Shares and Other Shares (the “Requisite Holders”); provided that this Agreement may not be amended and the observance of any term hereof may not be waived with respect to the Purchaser without the written consent of the Purchaser if such amendment or waiver materially and adversely affects the rights of the Purchaser under this Agreement in a manner that is different than the Other Purchasers. Any amendment, modification or waiver effected in accordance with this Section (i)(b) shall be binding upon the Purchaser and its successors and assigns and the Company and its successors and assigns.

(c) Third-Party Beneficiary. Each Placement Agent shall be an express third-party beneficiary of the representations and warranties of the Company included in Section 3 and the Purchaser included in Section 4 of this Agreement. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other person, except as otherwise set forth in Section 7, this Section 9 (c) and Section 9 (cc).

(e) Assignability. This Agreement is binding upon, and is enforceable by, each of the Company and the Purchaser and their respective successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement and the rights, interests and obligations hereunder are not transferable or assignable by the Purchaser other than an assignment of the rights, interests and obligations hereunder in connection with any transfer of the Shares by a Purchaser to a Permitted Assignee (as such term is defined in the Registration Rights Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more of its Affiliates or, with the Company’s prior written consent, to another person, in either case that is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D; provided, that no such assignment shall relieve the Purchaser of its obligations hereunder if any such assignee fails to perform such obligations, unless the Company has given its prior written consent to such relief. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 9 (e) is intended to, or shall have the effect of, restricting or otherwise impairing any transfer of the Shares by the Purchaser. This Agreement and the rights, interests and obligations hereunder are not transferable or assignable by the Company.

(f) Applicable Law.

Each party irrevocably consents to the service of process of any of the aforementioned courts in any such suit, action or proceeding by the mailing of copies thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to such party's address set forth in Section 9(d), such service to become effective ten (10) days after such mailing.

(g) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY OR THE ACTIONS OF SUCH PARTY IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE AND ENFORCEMENT HEREOF.

(h) Form D; Blue Sky Qualification. The Company shall timely file a Form D with respect to the Shares and provide a copy thereof, promptly upon request of the Purchaser. The Company shall take such action as the Company shall reasonably determine is necessary in order to obtain an exemption for, or to qualify the Shares for, sale to the Purchaser at such Closing under applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States, and shall provide evidence of such actions promptly upon request of the Purchaser.

(i) Rules of Construction. Unless the context otherwise requires, (i) all references to Sections, Schedules or Exhibits are to Sections, Schedules or Exhibits contained in or attached to this Agreement, (ii) each accounting term not otherwise defined in this Agreement has the meaning assigned to it in accordance with GAAP, (iii) words in the singular or plural include the singular and plural and pronouns stated in either the masculine, the feminine or neuter gender shall include the masculine, feminine and neuter, (iv) the use of the word “including” in this Agreement shall be by way of example rather than limitation, and (v) the word “or” shall not be exclusive.

(j) Stockholder Rights Plan. No claim will be made or enforced by the Company or, with the consent of the Company, any other person, that the Purchaser is an “Acquiring Person” under any control share acquisition, business combination, “poison pill” (including any distribution under a rights agreement) or similar anti-takeover plan or arrangement in effect or hereafter adopted by the Company, or that the Purchaser could be deemed to trigger the provisions of any such plan or arrangement, by virtue of receiving the Shares or any other securities of the Company under this Agreement or under any other agreement between the Company and the Purchaser.

(k) Securities Law Disclosure; Publicity. By 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the trading day immediately following the Initial Closing, the Company shall issue a press release disclosing all material terms of the Offering. The Company will also file the Super 8-K (and including as exhibits to such Super 8-K, the material Transaction Documents (including, without limitation, this Agreement, the Merger Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement)), in each case without redaction and including all schedules, exhibits and appendices, except as permitted by applicable SEC rules and instructions and provided that any redaction or schedule, exhibit or appendix not so filed in reliance on such rules and instructions shall not contain any material non-public information, as soon as practicable following the Initial Closing Date but in no event more than four (4) Business Days following the Initial Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not publicly disclose the name of the Purchaser or an Affiliate of the Purchaser, or include the name of the Purchaser or an Affiliate of the Purchaser in any press release or filing with the SEC (other than the Registration Statement) or any regulatory agency or principal trading market, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, except (i) as required by federal securities Law in connection with (A) any registration statement contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement and (B) the filing of final Transaction Documents with the SEC, or (ii) in connection with a request by FINRA relating to the Form 211 to be filed by a market maker on the Company’s behalf, or (iii) to the extent such disclosure is required by applicable Law, request of the staff of the SEC or of any regulatory agency or principal trading market regulations, in which case the Company shall to the extent legally permissible provide the Purchaser with prior written notice of such disclosure permitted under this sub-clause (ii). The Company represents and warrants that, from and after the filing of the Super 8-K, no Purchaser shall be in possession of any material, non-public information received from the Company or its Subsidiaries, any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees or agents or any other person acting on its behalf in connection with the Offering that is not disclosed in the Super 8-K unless the Purchaser shall have executed a written agreement with the Company regarding the confidentiality and use of such information or is otherwise subject to confidentiality restrictions as an officer or director of the Company. The Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the Other Purchasers, covenants that until such time as the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed by the Company as described in this Section 9 (k), the Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in connection with such transactions (including the existence and terms of such transactions), except to the extent such disclosure is required by applicable Law and then only after providing the Company with advance notice of such disclosure to the extent legally permissible so that the Company may seek a protective order to prevent such disclosure. In addition, the Purchaser acknowledges that it is aware that United States securities laws may restrict persons who have material, non-public information about a company and are subject to a duty of trust or confidence in respect of such information from purchasing or selling any securities of such company while in possession of such information. The provisions of this Section 9 (k) are in addition to and not in replacement of any other confidentiality agreement, if any, between the Company and the Purchaser.

(l) Non-Public Information. Except for information (including the terms of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby) that will be disclosed in the Super 8-K and filed with the SEC, the Company shall not and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries and its and their officers, directors, employees, agents and other representatives, not to, provide the Purchaser with any material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of the Company’s securities without the express prior written consent of the Purchaser. The Company understands, acknowledges and agrees that (a) the Purchaser, its Affiliates and persons acting on its or their behalf will rely on the provisions of Section 9 (k) and this Section 9 (l) in effecting transactions in the Shares and other securities of the Company and of other persons, and (b) notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Purchaser shall not (nor shall any of the Purchaser’s Affiliates, attorneys, agents or representatives) have, solely as a result of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or the purchase of the Shares, any duty of trust or confidence with respect to, or any obligation not to trade in any securities while aware of, any material non-public information (i) provided by, or on behalf of, the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or their officers, directors (or equivalent persons), employees, attorneys, agents or representatives in violation of any of the representations, covenants, provisions or agreements set forth in Section 9(n) or this Section 9(o) or (ii) otherwise possessed (or continued to be possessed) by the Purchaser (or any Affiliate, agent or representative thereof) as a result of any breach or violation by the Company of any representation, covenant, provision or agreement set forth in Section 9(n) or this Section 9(o).

(m) Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Registration Rights Agreement and each other Transaction Document, and all exhibits, schedules and attachments hereto and thereto, including the Disclosure Schedule and any confidentiality agreement between the Purchaser and the Company, constitute the entire agreement between the Purchaser and the Company with respect to the Offering and supersede all prior oral or written agreements and understandings, if any, relating to the subject matter hereof.

(n) Share Certificates. The Shares issued at any Closing will not be certificated but will be represented by book-entry positions on the books of the Transfer Agent. If the Shares are subsequently certificated and any certificate or instrument evidencing any Shares is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation thereof, or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Transfer Agent of such loss, theft or destruction and the execution by the holder thereof of a customary lost certificate affidavit of that fact and an agreement to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its Transfer Agent for any losses in connection therewith and/or, if required by such Transfer Agent, a bond in such form and amount as is reasonably required by the Transfer Agent. The applicants for a new certificate or instrument under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs associated with the issuance of such replacement Shares. If a replacement certificate or instrument evidencing any Shares is requested due to a mutilation thereof, the Company may require delivery of such mutilated certificate or instrument as a condition precedent to any issuance of a replacement.

(o) Expenses. Except as explicitly provided otherwise in this Agreement, all parties shall bear their own fees and expenses in connection with the Offering and the Merger and any due diligence activities relating thereto. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees, stamp taxes and other Taxes and duties levied in connection with the sale and issuance of the Shares, and the Company shall file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to such fees, Taxes and duties, and the Company shall pay all fees and expenses of its counsel in connection with the issuance of any opinion required by Section 6(l) above and of any opinion to the Transfer Agent for the removal of any legend on the Shares. Any expenses of the Placement Agents (or any sub-agents), including fees and expenses of their legal counsel, will be paid or reimbursed as agreed by Deep Isolation and the Company with each Placement Agent in the Placement Agent Agreement by and between the Company and such Placement Agent. All other fees and expenses relating to the Merger and the Offering, including but not limited to the Placement Agents’ cash commission, legal and accounting fees of Deep Isolation, any expenses of the Company will be payable at each closing of the Offering from the proceeds thereof.

(p) Tax Treatment. The Merger, the Initial Closing and the Subsequent Closing, if relevant, are part of an integrated plan with mutually interdependent steps in which (a) the Deep Isolation equity holders will be treated as contributing their Deep Isolation equity to the Company in exchange for Common Stock pursuant to the Merger, and (b) certain investors contributed cash to the Company in exchange for Common Stock pursuant to the Offering. The Merger Parties agree to treat the Merger, together with the Initial Closing and the Subsequent Closing, if relevant, as an exchange of property to the Purchaser in exchange for stock, other property or money within the meaning of Section 351(a) of the Code (such treatment, the “Intended Tax Treatment”) and shall not take any action reasonably likely to cause such transactions not to so qualify. Each of the Merger Parties agrees to file all Tax Returns consistent with the Intended Tax Treatment, except as otherwise required by a final determination by an applicable taxing authority.

(q) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. The exchange of copies of this Agreement and of signature pages that contain copies of an executed signature page such as in .pdf format shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this Agreement as to the parties and may be used in lieu of the original Agreement for all purposes. Signatures of the parties transmitted by facsimile or by e-mail of a document in .pdf format shall be deemed to be their original signatures for all purposes.

(r) Severability. Each provision of this Agreement shall be considered separable and, if for any reason any provision or provisions hereof are determined to be invalid or contrary to applicable Law, such invalid or contrary provision shall be replaced with a valid provision that as closely as possible reflects the parties’ intent with respect thereto, and invalidity or illegality shall not impair the operation of or affect the remaining portions of this Agreement.

(s) Headings. Paragraph titles are for descriptive purposes only and shall not control or alter the meaning of this Agreement as set forth in the text.

(t) Multiple Closings. The Purchaser understands and acknowledges that there may be multiple Closings for the Offering.

(u) Additional Information; Further Assurances. The Purchaser hereby agrees to furnish the Company such other information as the Company may reasonably request prior to the applicable Closing with respect to its subscription hereunder. Each party hereto shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as the other party hereto may reasonably request in order to effect the transactions contemplated hereby and to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, the satisfaction of the conditions and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(v) Survival. The parties agree that, if the Closing occurs (the Company Fundamental Representations shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement for a period of eighteen (18) months from the Initial Closing Date and (ii) the other the representations and warranties of the Company and the representations and warranties of the Purchaser contained in this Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Shares for a period of one (1) year from the Initial Closing Date and the covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement (including the covenants and agreements set forth in Section 7 hereof) shall survive the Closing and delivery of the Shares in accordance with their terms or, if no term is specified, such covenants and agreements shall survive indefinitely. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Purchaser have any liability to the Company or to any other person in connection with the Offering other than pursuant to this Agreement.

(w) Omnibus Signature Page. This Agreement is intended to be read and construed in conjunction with the Registration Rights Agreement. Accordingly, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, it is hereby agreed that the execution by the Purchaser of this Agreement, in the place set forth on the Omnibus Signature Page below, shall constitute agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions hereof and the terms and conditions of the Registration Rights Agreement, with the same effect as if each of such separate but related agreement were separately signed.

(x) Public Disclosure. Neither the Purchaser nor any officer, manager, director, member, partner, stockholder, employee, Affiliate, Affiliated person or entity of the Purchaser shall make or issue any press releases or otherwise make any public statements or make any disclosures to any third person or entity with respect to the transactions contemplated herein and will not make or issue any press releases or otherwise make any public statements of any nature whatsoever with respect to the Company without the Company’s express prior approval (which may be withheld in the Company’s sole discretion), except to the extent such disclosure is required by applicable Law, request of the staff of the SEC or of any regulatory agency or by principal trading market regulations.

(y) Potential Conflicts. Each Placement Agent, its sub-agents, legal counsel to the Company, the Placement Agents or Deep Isolation and/or their respective Affiliates, principals, representatives or employees may now or hereafter own shares of the Company.

(z) Independent Nature of the Purchaser’s Obligations and Rights. For avoidance of doubt, the obligations of the Purchaser under this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and any other agreements delivered in connection herewith are several and not joint with the obligations of any Other Purchaser in connection with the Offering, and the Purchaser shall not be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any Other Purchaser in connection with the Offering. The decision of the Purchaser to purchase Shares pursuant to this Agreement has been made by the Purchaser independently of any Other Purchaser or any other investor and independently of any information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries which may have been made or given by any Other Purchaser or investor or by any agent or employee of any Other Purchaser or investor, and neither the Purchaser nor any of its agents or employees shall have any liability to any Other Purchaser or investor (or any other person) relating to or arising from any such information, materials, statements or opinions. Nothing contained herein and no action taken by the Purchaser shall be deemed to constitute the Purchaser as a partnership, an association, a joint venture, or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchaser is in any way acting in concert or as a group with any Other Purchaser in connection with the Offering with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or any Other Subscription Agreement. Except as specifically set forth herein, the Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other party to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

(aa) Waiver of Conflicts. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that each of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Carmel LLP (“SRFC”), counsel to the Company, Hunton, counsel to Deep Isolation, and counsel to the Placement Agents (“Placement Agent Counsel”), may have in the past performed and may continue to or in the future perform legal services for certain of the Purchasers in matters unrelated to the transactions described in this Agreement, including financings and other matters. Accordingly, each party to this Agreement hereby (a) acknowledges that it has had an opportunity to ask for information relevant to this disclosure; (b) acknowledges that SRFC, Hunton and Placement Agent Counsel represented the Company, Deep Isolation and the Placement Agents, respectively, in the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and have not represented any individual Purchaser in connection with such transaction; and (c) gives its informed consent to SRFC’s, ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇, and Placement Agent Counsel’s representation of certain of the Purchasers in unrelated matters and to SRFC’s, ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ and Placement Agent Counsel’s representation of the Company, Deep Isolation and the Placement Agents, respectively, in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

(bb) Adjustments. In the event of any stock split, subdivision, dividend or distribution payable in shares of Common Stock (or other securities or rights convertible into, or entitling the holder thereof to receive directly or indirectly shares of Common Stock), combination or other similar recapitalization or event occurring after the date hereof, each reference in any Transaction Document to a number of Shares or the Per Share Purchase Price (or other price per share of Common Stock) shall be deemed to be amended to appropriately account for such event.

(cc) Remedies. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed by them in accordance with the terms hereof and that each party hereto shall be entitled to protective orders, injunctive relief and other remedies available at Law or in equity (including, without limitation, seeking specific performance or rescission of purchases, sales and other transfers). The parties hereto agree not to raise any objections to the availability of the equitable remedy of specific performance to prevent or restrain breaches of this Agreement by the Purchaser or the Company, as applicable, and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the respective covenants and obligations of the Purchaser and the Company, as applicable, under this Agreement all in accordance with the terms of this Section 9 (cc). Neither the Purchaser nor the Company, as applicable, shall be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, all in accordance with the terms of this Section 9 (cc).

(dd) Recourse. Notwithstanding anything that may be expressed or implied in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document, and notwithstanding the fact that the Purchaser may be partnerships or limited liability companies, the Company hereto covenants, agrees and acknowledges that no recourse under this Agreement or any Transaction Document shall be had against any the Purchaser’s future, present or former Affiliates, or the Purchaser’s or its Affiliates’ respective future, present or former officers, directors, managers, employees, partners, investment advisers, equity holders, controlling persons, members, agents, attorneys, representatives, successors or permitted assigns (the “Purchaser Parties”) (other than the Purchaser and its successors and Permitted Assignees under this Agreement), whether by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, or by virtue of any applicable Law, it being expressly agreed and acknowledged that no personal liability whatsoever shall attach to, be imposed on or otherwise be incurred by any of the Purchaser Parties, as such, for any obligation or liability of any party under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or liabilities or their creation; provided, however, nothing in this Section 9 (dd) shall relieve or otherwise limit the liability of the Purchaser or any of its successors or Permitted Assignees, for any breach or violation of its obligations under such agreements, documents or instruments. The liability limitation provision in this Section 9 (dd) shall survive termination of this Agreement. The Purchaser Parties are intended third party beneficiaries of the provisions of this Section 9 (dd), entitled to enforce such provisions as if directly party to this Agreement.

ANTI MONEY LAUNDERING REQUIREMENTS

The USA PATRIOT Act

The USA PATRIOT Act is designed to detect, deter, and punish terrorists in the United States and abroad. The Act imposes new anti-money laundering requirements on brokerage firms and financial institutions. Since April 24, 2002 all brokerage firms have been required to have new, comprehensive anti-money laundering programs.

To help you understand these efforts, we want to provide you with some information about money laundering and our steps to implement the USA PATRIOT Act.

What is money laundering?

Money laundering is the process of disguising illegally obtained money so that the funds appear to come from legitimate sources or activities. Money laundering occurs in connection with a wide variety of crimes, including illegal arms sales, drug trafficking, robbery, fraud, racketeering, and terrorism.

How big is the problem and why is it important?

The use of the U.S. financial system by criminals to facilitate terrorism or other crimes could well taint our financial markets. According to the U.S. State Department, one recent estimate puts the amount of worldwide money laundering activity at $1 trillion a year.

What are we required to do to eliminate money laundering?

Under rules required by the USA PATRIOT Act, our anti-money laundering program must designate a special compliance officer, set up employee training, conduct independent audits, and establish policies and procedures to detect and report suspicious transaction and ensure compliance with such laws. As part of our required program, we may ask you to provide various identification documents or other information. Until you provide the information or documents we need, we may not be able to effect any transactions for you.

ANTI-MONEY LAUNDERING INFORMATION FORM

The following is required in accordance with the AML provision of the USA PATRIOT ACT.

(to be renamed “Deep Isolation Nuclear, Inc.” upon consummation of the Merger (as defined therein)), a Delaware corporation (the “Company”)), in connection with the private placement offering by the Company.

Nothing in the following Disclosure Schedules is intended to broaden the scope of any representation or warranty contained in the Subscription Agreement or to create any covenant on the part of the Company. To the extent more than one representation and warranty contained in the Subscription Agreement requires the same disclosure, the appearance of such disclosure on any single item herein shall serve as disclosure for all other representations and warranties to which such disclosure applies to the extent the relevance of such disclosure to such other representation or warranty is readily apparent on its face.

Inclusion of any item in the Disclosure Schedules (1) does not represent a determination that such item is material nor shall it be deemed to establish a standard of materiality (it being acknowledged that the Company may disclose more than they may be required by the terms of the Subscription Agreement), (2) does not represent a determination by the Company that such item did not arise in the ordinary course of business, and (3) shall not constitute, or be deemed to be, an admission by the Company that such item or other matter is material, meets any standard of materiality or meets all criteria set forth in the Subscription Agreement for inclusion. The items in the Disclosure Schedules are descriptions of instruments or brief summaries of certain aspects of the Company and the business of the Company and are necessarily not complete. Accordingly, the Disclosure Schedules are qualified in their entirety by reference to the specific provisions of the Subscription Agreement, and are not intended to constitute, and shall not be construed as constituting, representations or warranties of the Company, except as and to the extent provided in the Subscription Agreement, and subject to the limitations therein.
