Ladies and Gentlemen:

Reference is made to the Equity Distribution Agreement, dated as of June 4, 2024 (the “Original Agreement”), by and among Phunware, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and Canaccord Genuity LLC (“Canaccord”), as representative of the several sales agents identified on Schedule 1 hereto (the “Agents”), pursuant to which the Company proposed to issue and sell through the Agents, from time to time during the term of the Original Agreement, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Original Agreement, shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value per share. The Company and the Agents wish to amend and restate the Original Agreement in its entirety as provided herein.

The Company confirms its agreement (this “Agreement”) with the Agents, as follows:

1.              Issuance and Sale of Shares.

(a)            The Company agrees that, from time to time during the term of this Agreement, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, it will issue and sell through Canaccord, acting as sales agent on behalf of the Agents, shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common Shares”), having an aggregate offering price of up to $171,520,779 (the “Shares”), which shall be inclusive of all Shares sold under the Original Agreement prior to the date hereof. The Shares will be sold on the terms set forth herein at such times and in such amounts as the Company and the Agents shall agree from time to time. The issuance and sale of the Shares through the Agents will be effected pursuant to the Registration Statement (as defined below).

(b)            Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company and the Agents agree that the Company shall not deliver a Placement Notice (as defined below) to the Agents, and the Agents shall not be obligated to place any Shares, during any period in which the Company is in possession of material non-public information.

2.              Placements.

(a)            Placement Notice. Each time that the Company wishes to issue and sell Shares hereunder (each, a “Placement”), it will notify the Agents by e-mail notice (or other method mutually agreed to in writing by the parties) containing the parameters within which it desires to sell the Shares, which shall at a minimum include the number of Shares (“Placement Shares”) to be issued, the time period during which sales are requested to be made, any limitation on the number of Shares that may be sold in any one day and any minimum price below which sales may not be made (a “Placement Notice”), a form of which shall be mutually agreed upon by the Company and the Agents. The Placement Notice shall originate from any of the individuals (each an “Authorized Representative”) from the Company set forth on Schedule 2 (with a copy to each of the other individuals from the Company listed on such schedule), and shall be addressed to each of the individuals from Canaccord set forth on Schedule 2 attached hereto, as such Schedule 2 may be amended from time to time. The Placement Notice shall be effective upon confirmation by the Agents unless and until (i) the Agents decline to accept the terms contained therein for any reason, in its sole discretion, in accordance with the notice requirements set forth in Section 4, (ii) the entire amount of the Placement Shares have been sold, (iii) the Company suspends or terminates the Placement Notice in accordance with the notice requirements set forth in Section 4, (iv) the Company issues a subsequent Placement Notice with parameters superseding those on the earlier dated Placement Notice, or (v) the Agreement has been terminated under the provisions of Section 12.

(b)            Placement Fee. The amount of compensation to be paid by the Company to the Agents with respect to each Placement (in addition to any expense reimbursement pursuant to Section 7(h)(ii)) shall be up to 3.0% of gross proceeds from each Placement.

(c)            No Obligation. It is expressly acknowledged and agreed that neither the Company nor the Agents will have any obligation whatsoever with respect to a Placement or any Placement Shares unless and until the

Company delivers a Placement Notice to the Agents, and then only upon the terms specified therein and herein. It is also expressly acknowledged that the Agents will be under no obligation to purchase Shares on a principal basis. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of a Placement Notice, the terms of the Placement Notice control.

3.              Sale of Placement Shares by the Agents. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, upon the Company’s issuance of a Placement Notice, 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 Agents will use their commercially reasonable efforts consistent with their normal trading and sales practices to sell on behalf of the Company and as agents, such Placement Shares up to the amount specified during the time period specified, and otherwise in accordance with the terms of such Placement Notice. The Company acknowledges that the Agents will conduct the sale of Placement Shares in compliance with applicable law, rules and regulations including, without limitation, all applicable United States state and federal securities laws, including the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) (including Regulation M promulgated thereunder), and the rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (the “Principal Trading Market”) and that such compliance may include a delay in commencement of sales efforts after receipt of a Placement Notice. The Agents will provide written confirmation to the Company no later than the opening of the Trading Day immediately following the Trading Day on which they have 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 Agents with respect to such sales, and the Net Proceeds (as defined below) payable to the Company. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Placement Notice, the Agents may sell Placement Shares by any method permitted by law deemed to be an “at the market offering” under Rule 415 of the Act, including without limitation sales made directly on or through the Principal Trading Market, on any other existing trading market for the Common Shares solely in the United States, sales to or through a market maker other than on an exchange or in negotiated transactions at market prices prevailing at the time of sale or at prices related to such prevailing market prices. During the term of this Agreement, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Agents agree that in no event will their or any of their affiliates engage in any market making, bidding, stabilization or other trading activity with regard to the Common Shares if such activity would be prohibited under Regulation M or other anti-manipulation rules under the Act. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or a Placement Notice, the Company acknowledges and agrees that (i) there can be no assurance that the Agents will be successful in selling any Placement Shares or as to the price at which any Placement Shares are sold, if at all, and (ii) the Agents will incur no liability or obligation to the Company or any other person or entity if they do not sell Placement Shares for any reason other than a failure by the Agents to use their commercially reasonable efforts consistent with their normal trading and sales practices to sell on behalf of the Company and as agents such Placement Shares as provided under this Section 3. For the purposes hereof, “Trading Day” means any day on which the Principal Trading Market is open for trading.

4.              Suspension of Sales. The Company or the Agents may, upon notice to the other party in writing, by telephone (confirmed promptly thereafter by e-mail) or by e-mail notice (or other method mutually agreed to in writing by the parties), suspend any sale of Placement Shares; provided, however, that such suspension shall not affect or impair either party’s obligations with respect to any Placement Shares sold hereunder prior to the receipt of such notice. The Company and the Agents agree that no such notice shall be effective against the other party unless it is made to one of the individuals named on Schedule 2 hereto, as such Schedule may be amended from time to time.

5.              Settlement.

(a)            Settlement of Placement Shares. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Placement Notice, settlement for sales of Placement Shares will occur on the first (1st) Business Day (as defined below) (or such earlier day as is agreed by the parties to be industry practice for regular-way trading) following the date on which such sales are made (each a “Settlement Date”). The amount of proceeds to be delivered to the Company on a Settlement Date against the receipt of the Placement Shares sold (the “Net Proceeds”) will be equal to the aggregate sales price at which such Placement Shares were sold, after deduction for (i) the commission or other compensation for such sales payable by the Company to the Agents, as the case may be, pursuant to Section 2 hereof, (ii) any other amounts due and payable by the Company to the Agents hereunder pursuant to Section 7(h) hereof, and (iii) any transaction fees imposed by any governmental or self-regulatory organization in respect of such sales.

(b)            Delivery of Shares. On or before each Settlement Date, the Company will, or will cause its transfer agent to, electronically transfer the Placement Shares being sold by crediting the Agents’ accounts or their designee’s account at The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission System or by such

other means of delivery as may be mutually agreed upon by the parties hereto and, upon receipt of such Placement Shares, which in all cases shall be freely tradeable, transferable, registered shares in good deliverable form, the Agents will, on each Settlement Date, deliver the related Net Proceeds in same day funds delivered to an account designated by the Company prior to the Settlement Date. If the Company defaults in its obligation to deliver Placement Shares on a Settlement Date, the Company agrees that in addition to and in no way limiting the rights and obligations set forth in Section 10 hereto, it will (i) hold the Agents harmless against any loss, claim, damage, or reasonable or documented expense (including reasonable legal fees and expenses), as incurred, arising out of or in connection with such default by the Company and (ii) pay to the Agents any commission, discount, or other compensation to which they would otherwise have been entitled absent such default.

6.              Representations and Warranties of the Company. Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and any documents incorporated by reference therein, the Company represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Agents that, as of the date of this Agreement (unless such representation and warranty or agreement specifies a different date or time):

(a)            The Company and the transactions contemplated hereby meet the requirements for use of Form S-3 under the Act. The Company has prepared and filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement on Form S-3 (File Number 333-262461), including a related base prospectus, for registration under the Act of the offering and sale of the Shares and other securities of the Company (the “Initial Registration Statement”). The Initial Registration Statement was declared effective by the Commission on February 9, 2022. The Initial Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, each in the form heretofore delivered to the Agents, have been declared effective by the Commission in such form; and the Initial Registration Statement, at any given time, including the amendments thereto, the exhibits and any schedules thereto at such time, the documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the Act at such time and the documents otherwise deemed to be a part thereof or included therein by the rules and regulations under the Act, is herein after referred to as the “Registration Statement.” The Registration Statement, including the base prospectus contained therein (the “Base Prospectus”) was prepared by the Company in conformity, in all material respects, with the requirements of the Act and all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission. One or more prospectus supplements, and appropriate amendments thereto, relating to the Shares (each, a “Prospectus Supplement”) have been or will be prepared by the Company and filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Act, and together with the Base Prospectus and any amendment thereto and all documents incorporated therein by reference pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3, are herein after referred to as the “Prospectus”; any reference to any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement, any Prospectus Supplement and any documents filed under the Exchange Act, and incorporated therein, in each case after the date of the Prospectus, as the case may be; any reference to any amendment to the Registration Statement shall be deemed to refer to and include any annual report of the Company filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act after the effective date of the Registration Statement that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement; and any “issuer free writing prospectus” as defined in Rule 433 under the Act relating to the Shares is hereinafter called an “Issuer Free Writing Prospectus.”

(b)            No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued and no proceeding for that purpose has been initiated or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened by the Commission. No order preventing the use of the Base Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement, the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus has been issued by the Commission, and the Base Prospectus and each Prospectus Supplement, at the respective time of filing thereof, conformed in all material respects to the requirements of the Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, and did not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that this representation and warranty shall not apply to any statements or omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by the Agents expressly for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Agents to the Company consists of the information set forth in the 9th paragraph under the caption “Plan of Distribution” in the Prospectus (“Agent Information”).

(c)            For the purposes of this Agreement, the “Applicable Time” means, with respect to any Shares, the time of sale of such Shares pursuant to this Agreement. The Registration Statement, when such part became effective, at any deemed effective date pursuant to Rule 430B(f)(2) on the date of filing thereof with the Commission, and the Prospectus, on the date of filing thereof with the Commission and at each Applicable Time and Settlement Date, did not include and will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit or will omit to state any material fact

necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus issued at or prior to such Applicable Time (collectively, and with respect to any Shares, together with the public offering price of such Shares, the “Disclosure Package”) and at each Applicable Time and Settlement Date, did not or will not conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus and each such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus as supplemented by and taken together with the Disclosure Package as of any such Applicable Time, did not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; except that the foregoing shall not apply to statements or omissions in any such document made in reliance on information furnished in writing to the Company by the Agents expressly stating that such information is intended for use in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus(es). The representations and warranties set forth in this representation and warranty do not apply to statements in or omissions from the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, or the Disclosure Package, made in reliance upon and in conformity with the Agent Information.

(d)            The documents incorporated by reference in the Prospectus, when they became effective or were filed with the Commission, as the case may be, conformed in all material respects to the requirements of the Act or the Exchange Act, as applicable, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, and none of such documents contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and any further documents so filed and incorporated by reference in the Prospectus or any further amendment or supplement thereto, when such documents become effective or are filed with the Commission, as the case may be, will conform in all material respects to the requirements of the Act or the Exchange Act, as applicable, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder and will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that this representation and warranty shall not apply to any statements or omissions (a) that have been corrected in a filing that has been incorporated by reference in the Prospectus prior to the relevant Applicable Time, or (b) made in reliance on information furnished in writing to the Company by the Agents expressly stating that such information is intended for use in any such document.

(e)            The Registration Statement conforms, and the Prospectus and any further amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus will conform, in all material respects to the requirements of the Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, and do not and will not, as of the applicable effective date as to each part of the Registration Statement and as of the applicable filing date as to the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; provided, however, that this representation and warranty shall not apply to any statements or omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with Agent Information.

(f)             The Company and each of its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, have not sustained since the date of the latest audited financial statements included in the Prospectus any material loss or material interference with their business from fire, explosion, flood or other calamity, whether or not covered by insurance, or from any labor dispute or court or governmental action, order or decree, otherwise than as set forth or contemplated in the Prospectus; and, since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, there has not been any change in the capital stock (other than as a result of the exercise of stock options, the settlement of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) or the award of stock options, restricted stock, RSUs, or performance stock units (“PSUs”) in the ordinary course of business pursuant to the Company’s equity plans that are described in the Prospectus) or long-term debt of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or any material adverse change, or any development involving a prospective material adverse change, in or affecting the business, properties, management, financial position, stockholders’ equity, results of operations or prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole (a “Material Adverse Effect”), otherwise than as set forth or contemplated in the Prospectus.

(g)            The Company and its subsidiaries do not own any real property. The Company and its subsidiaries have good and marketable title to all personal property owned by them, in each case free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and defects except such as are described in the Prospectus or such as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and any real property and buildings held under lease by the Company and its subsidiaries are held by them under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases (to the knowledge of the Company with respect to any counterparty to such agreement, and subject to the effects of (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws

relating to or affecting the rights or remedies of creditors generally; (ii) the application of general principles of equity (including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, regardless of whether enforcement is considered in proceedings at law or in equity); and (iii) applicable law and public policy with respect to rights to indemnity and contribution) with such exceptions as are not material and do not materially interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property and buildings by the Company and its subsidiaries.

for such violations or defaults as would not, individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(p)            At the time of filing the Registration Statement, the Company was not and, as of the date hereof, is not, and as of each Applicable Time and Settlement Date will not be, an “ineligible issuer,” as defined in Rule 405 under the Act.

(q)            ▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP, which has audited certain financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries, is an independent registered public accounting firm as required by the Act, the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder and the Public Accounting Oversight Board.

(r)             The financial statements, including the notes thereto, and the supporting schedules included in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus present fairly in all material respects the financial position of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries at the dates indicated and for the periods indicated therein, subject, in the case of unaudited financial statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments; except as otherwise stated in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, such financial statements and supporting schedules have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods involved except as disclosed therein; and any selected financial data or summary financial information included in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus presents fairly the information shown therein and has been compiled on a basis consistent with that of the audited financial statements included therein, except as disclosed therein.

(t)              Other than as set forth in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, the Company maintains a system of internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that complies with the requirements of the Exchange Act applicable to the Company and has been designed by the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer (or persons performing similar functions), or under their supervision, to provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations; (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain asset accountability; (iii) access to assets is permitted

(u)            Since the date of the latest audited financial statements included in the Prospectus, there has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially and adversely affected, or is reasonably likely to materially and adversely affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

(v)             Other than as set forth in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, the Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to comply with the requirements of the Exchange Act applicable to the Company; such disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to ensure that material information relating to the Company and its subsidiaries is made known to the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer by others within those entities; and such disclosure controls and procedures are effective. The Company has conducted evaluations of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures as required by Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act.

During the term of this Agreement, on the date of each Placement Notice given hereunder, and each time the Company (i) files the Prospectus relating to the Placement Shares or amends or supplements the Registration Statement or the Prospectus relating to the Placement Shares by means of a post-effective amendment, sticker, or supplement but not by means of incorporation of document(s) by reference to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus relating to the Placement Shares; (ii) files an Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q under the Exchange Act; or (iii) files a Current Report on Form 8-K containing amended financial information (other than an earnings release, to “furnish” information pursuant to Form 8-K relating to the reclassifications of certain properties as discontinued operations in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144) under the Exchange Act (each date of filing of one or more of the documents referred to in clauses (i) through (iii) shall be a “Representation Date”), the Company shall furnish the Agents (but in the case of clause (iii) above only if the agents reasonably determine that the financial information contained in such Current Report on Form 8-K is material) with a certificate, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. The requirement to provide a certificate under this Section 7(o) shall be automatically waived for any Representation Date occurring at a time at which no Placement Notice is pending, which waiver shall continue until the earlier to occur of the date the Company delivers a Placement Notice hereunder (which for such calendar quarter shall be considered a Representation Date) and the next occurring Representation Date; provided, however, that such waiver shall not apply for any Representation Date on which the Company files its Annual Report on Form 10-K. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company subsequently decides to sell Placement Shares following a Representation Date when the Company relied on such waiver and did not provide the Agents with a certificate under this Section 7(o), then before the Company delivers the Placement Notice or the Agents sell any Placement Shares, the Company shall provide the Agents with a certificate, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, dated the date of the Placement Notice.

(p)            Legal Opinions. Upon commencement of the offering of Placement Shares under this Agreement (and upon the recommencement of the offering of the Placement Shares under this Agreement following any termination of a suspension of sales hereunder), and promptly after each Representation Date, in each case, to the extent no waiver is applicable pursuant to Section 7(o), the Company will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Agents the written opinions and negative assurance letters, to the extent applicable, of (i) ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ PC, counsel for the Company, and (ii) TIPS Group, intellectual property counsel for the Company, or other counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Agents, dated the date of such commencement or recommencement or the date of effectiveness of such amendment or the date of filing with the Commission of such supplement or other document, as the case may be, in a form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agents and their counsel; provided, however, in lieu of such opinion and letter, counsel last furnishing such letter to the Agents may furnish the Agents with a letter substantially to the effect that the Agents may rely on such last opinion and letter to the same extent as though each were dated the date of such letter authorizing reliance (except that statements in such last letter shall be deemed to relate to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus as amended and supplemented to the time of delivery of such letter authorizing reliance). As used in this paragraph, to the extent there shall be an Applicable Time on or following the date referred to in clause (i) or (ii) above, promptly shall be deemed to be on or prior to the next succeeding Applicable Time. Such opinions and negative assurance letters, to the extent applicable, shall be rendered to the Agents at the request of the Company and shall state so therein.

(q)            Comfort Letters. Upon commencement of the offering of Placement Shares under this Agreement (and upon the recommencement of the offering of the Shares under this Agreement following any termination of a suspension of sales hereunder), and promptly after each Representation Date, in each case, to the extent no waiver is applicable pursuant to Section 7(o), the Company shall cause its independent accountants reasonably satisfactory to the Agents, to furnish the Agents letters dated the date of this Agreement or the date of such commencement or recommencement or the date of effectiveness of such amendment or the date of filing of such supplement or other document with the Commission, as the case may be (the “Comfort Letters”), in form and substance satisfactory to the Agents, (i) confirming that they are registered independent public accountants within the meaning of the Act and are

in compliance with the applicable requirements relating to the qualification of accountants under Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X of the Commission, (ii) stating, as of such date, the conclusions and findings of such firm with respect to the financial information and other matters included in or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement as ordinarily covered by accountants’ “comfort letters” to underwriters in connection with registered public offerings (the first such letter, the “Initial Comfort Letter”) and (iii) updating the Initial Comfort Letter with any information which would have been included in the Initial Comfort Letter had it been given on such date and modified as necessary to relate to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, as amended and supplemented to the date of such letter.

(r)             Chief Financial Officer Certificate. If requested by the Agents, upon commencement of the offering of Placement Shares under this Agreement (and upon the recommencement of the offering of the Shares under this Agreement following any termination of a suspension of sales hereunder), and promptly after each Representation Date, in each case, to the extent no waiver is applicable pursuant to Section 7(o), the Company shall furnish to the Agents a certificate of the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agents.

(s)            Market Activities. The Company will not, directly or indirectly, without giving effect to activities by the Agents, (i) take any action designed to cause or result in, or that constitutes or might reasonably be expected to constitute, the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of the Shares or (ii) sell, bid for, or purchase the Shares, or pay anyone any compensation for soliciting purchases of the Shares other than the Agents.

(t)             Insurance. The Company and its subsidiaries shall maintain, or cause to be maintained, insurance in such amounts and covering such risks as is reasonable and customary for companies engaged in similar businesses in similar industries.

(u)            Compliance with Laws. The Company and its subsidiaries shall comply with all federal, state and local or foreign law, rule, regulation, ordinance, order or decree applicable to them, except where failure to so comply would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Furthermore, the Company and its subsidiaries shall maintain, or cause to be maintained, all material environmental permits, licenses and other material authorizations required by federal, state and local law in order to conduct their respective businesses as described in, or incorporated by reference into, the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, and the Company and its subsidiaries shall conduct their respective businesses, or cause their respective businesses to be conducted, in substantial compliance with such material permits, licenses and authorizations and with applicable Environmental Laws, except where the failure to maintain or be in compliance with such permits, licenses and authorizations would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(v)            Investment Company Act. The Company will conduct its affairs in such a manner so as to reasonably ensure that it will not be or become, at any time prior to the termination of this Agreement, an “investment company,” as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act, assuming no change in the Commission’s current interpretation as to entities that are not considered an investment company.

(w)            Act and Exchange Act. The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all requirements imposed upon it by the Act and the Exchange Act as from time to time in force, so far as necessary to permit the continuance of sales of, or dealings in, the Shares as contemplated by the provisions hereof and the Prospectus.

(x)            No Offer to Sell. Other than a free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 405 under the Act) approved in advance by the Company and the Agents, in their capacities as agents hereunder, neither the Agents nor the Company (including its agents and representatives, other than the Agents in their capacities as such) will make, use, prepare, authorize, approve or refer to any written communication (as defined in Rule 405 under the Act), required to be filed by it with the Commission, that constitutes an offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to buy Common Shares hereunder.

(y)            ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act. The Company and its subsidiaries will comply, in all material respects, with all effective applicable provisions of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act.

(z)            Consent to Agents’ Trading. The Company consents to the Agents trading in the Common Shares of the Company for the Agents’ own accounts and for the accounts of their clients at the same time as sales of Placement Shares occur pursuant to this Agreement.

(aa)          Rescission Offers. If, to the knowledge of the Company, all filings required by Rule 424 in connection with this offering shall not have been made or the representations in Section 6 shall not be true and correct on the applicable Settlement Date, the Company will offer to any person who has agreed to purchase Placement Shares from the Company as the result of an offer to purchase solicited by the Agents the right to refuse to purchase and pay for such Placement Shares.

(bb)         Actively Traded Security. If, at the time of the execution of this Agreement, the Company’s Common Shares are not an “actively traded security” exempted from the requirements of Rule 101 of Regulation M under the Exchange Act by subsection (c)(1) of such rule, the Company shall notify the Agents at the time the Common Shares becomes an “actively traded security” under such rule. Furthermore, the Company shall notify the Agents immediately if the Common Shares, having once qualified for such exemption, cease to so qualify.

(cc)          Blue Sky Qualifications. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts, in cooperation with the Agents, to qualify the Placement Shares for sale under the applicable securities laws of such states and other jurisdictions (domestic or foreign) as the Agents may designate and to maintain such qualifications in effect so long as required to complete the sale of the Placement Shares; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to file any general consent to service of process or to qualify as a foreign corporation or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction in which it is not so qualified or to subject itself to taxation in respect of doing business in any jurisdiction in which it is not otherwise so subject.

(dd)          Smaller Reporting Company Status. The Company will promptly notify the Agents if the Company ceases to be a Smaller Reporting Company at any time prior to the termination of this Agreement.

(ee)          Tax Indemnity. The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Agent against any documentary, stamp or similar issue tax, including any interest and penalties, on the issue and sale of the Placement Shares.

8.              Additional Representations and Covenants of the Company.

(a)            Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses.

(i)            The Company represents that it has not made, and covenants that, unless it obtains the prior written consent of the Agents (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), it will not make any offer relating to the Shares that would constitute an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus required to be filed by it with the Commission or retained by the Company under Rule 433 of the Act; except as set forth in a Placement Notice, no use of any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus has been consented to by the Agents. The Company agrees that it will comply with the requirements of Rules 164 and 433 of the Act applicable to any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, including timely filing with the Commission or retention where required and legending.

(ii)           The Company agrees that no Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, if any, will include any information that conflicts with the information contained in the Registration Statement, including any document incorporated by reference therein that has not been superseded or modified, or the Prospectus. In addition, no Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, if any, will include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, the foregoing shall not apply to any statements or omissions in any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus made in reliance on information furnished in writing to the Company by the Agents expressly stating that such information is intended for use therein.

(iii)          The Company agrees that if at any time following issuance of an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus any event occurred or occurs as a result of which such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus would conflict with the information in the Registration Statement, including any document incorporated by reference therein that has not been superseded or modified, or the Prospectus or would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the Company will give prompt notice thereof to the Agents and, if reasonably requested by the Agents, will prepare and furnish without charge to the Agents an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or other document which will correct such conflict, statement or omission; provided, however, the foregoing shall not apply to any statements or omissions in any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus made in reliance on information furnished in writing to the Company by the Agents expressly stating that such information is intended for use therein.

(b)            Non-Issuer Free Writing Prospectus. The Company consents to the use by the Agents of a press release or other written communication that contains only information permitted under Rule 134 under the Act; provided that the Agents covenant with the Company not to take any action that would result in the Company being required to file with the Commission under Rule 433(d) under the Act a free writing prospectus.

(c)            Distribution of Offering Materials. The Company has not distributed and will not distribute, during the term of this Agreement, any offering materials in connection with the offering and sale of the Placement Shares other than the Registration Statement, Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus reviewed and consented to by the Agents and included in a Placement Notice (as described in clause (a)(i) above).

9.              Conditions to the Agents’ Obligations. The obligations of the Agents hereunder with respect to a Placement will be subject to the continuing accuracy and completeness of the representations and warranties made by the Company herein and in the applicable Placement Notices, to the due performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder, to the completion by the Agents of a due diligence review satisfactory to the Agents in their reasonable judgment, and to the continuing satisfaction (or waiver by the Agents in their sole discretion) of the following additional conditions:

(a)            Registration Statement Effective. The Registration Statement shall have become effective and shall be available for the sale of (i) all Placement Shares issued pursuant to all prior Placements and not yet sold by the Agents and (ii) all Placement Shares contemplated to be issued by the Placement Notice relating to such Placement.

(b)            No Material Notices. None of the following events shall have occurred and be continuing: (i) receipt by the Company of any request for additional information from the Commission or any other federal or state or foreign or other governmental, administrative or self-regulatory authority during the period of effectiveness of the Registration Statement, the response to which might reasonably require any amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus; (ii) the issuance by the Commission or any other federal or state or foreign or other governmental authority of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; (iii) receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Shares for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; (iv) the occurrence of any event that makes any statement made in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that requires the making of any changes in the Registration Statement, related prospectus or documents so that, in the case of the Registration Statement, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and in the case of the Prospectus, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and (v) the Company’s reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement would be appropriate.

(c)            No Misstatement or Material Omission. The Agents shall not have advised the Company that the Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, contains an untrue statement of fact that in the Agents’ opinion (under the advice of counsel) is material, or omits to state a fact that in the Agents’ opinion (under the advice of counsel) is material and is required to be stated therein or is necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

(d)            Material Changes. Except as contemplated and appropriately disclosed in the Prospectus, or disclosed in the Company’s reports filed with the Commission, in each case at the time the applicable Placement Notice is delivered, there shall not have been any material change, on a consolidated basis, in the authorized share capital of the Company and its subsidiaries, or any Material Adverse Effect, or any development that may reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect, or a downgrading in or withdrawal of the rating assigned to any of the Company’s securities by any rating organization or a public announcement by any rating organization that it has under surveillance or review its rating of any of the Company’s securities, the effect of which, in the sole judgment of the Agents (without relieving the Company of any obligation or liability it may otherwise have), is so material as to make it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering of the Placement Shares on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Prospectus.

(e)            Certificates. The Agents shall have received the certificate required to be delivered pursuant to Section 7(o) on or before the date on which delivery of such certificate is required pursuant to Section 7(o). The Agents

shall have also received the certificate required to be delivered pursuant to Section 7(r) on or before the date on which delivery of such certificate is required pursuant to Section 7(r).

(f)             Legal Opinions. The Agents shall have received the opinions of counsel to the Company required to be delivered pursuant Section 7(p) on or before the date on which such delivery of such opinions is required pursuant to Section 7(p). In addition, the Agents shall have received the negative assurance letter of Faegre Drinker ▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇ LLP, counsel to the Agents, on such dates and with respect to such matters as the Agents may reasonably request.

(g)            Comfort Letters. The Agents shall have received each of the Comfort Letters required to be delivered pursuant Section 7(q) on or before the date on which such delivery of such letters is required pursuant to Section 7(q).

(h)            Approval for Listing; No Suspension. The Placement Shares shall have either been (i) approved for listing, subject to notice of issuance, on the Principal Trading Market, or (ii) the Company shall have filed an application for listing of the Placement Shares on the Principal Trading Market at or prior to the issuance of the Placement Notice. Trading in the Common Shares shall not have been suspended on the Principal Trading Market.

(i)             Other Materials. On each date on which the Company is required to deliver a certificate pursuant to Section 7(o), the Company shall have furnished to the Agents such appropriate further information, certificates, opinions and documents as the Agents may reasonably request. All such opinions, certificates, letters and other documents will be in compliance with the provisions hereof. The Company will furnish the Agents with such conformed copies of such opinions, certificates, letters and other documents as the Agents shall reasonably request.

(j)             Securities Act Filings Made. All filings with the Commission required by Rule 424 under the Act to have been filed prior to the issuance of any Placement Notice hereunder shall have been made within the applicable time period prescribed for such filing by Rule 424.

(k)            No Termination Event. There shall not have occurred any event that would permit the Agents to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 12(a).

10.            Indemnification and Contribution.

(a)            Company Indemnification. The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Agent and each person, if any, who controls any of the Agents within the meaning of the Act or the Exchange Act against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, to which any Agent or such controlling person may become subject, under Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendments thereto), the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or the Disclosure Package or, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact, (a) in the case of the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto, required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and (b) in the case of the Prospectus or any supplement thereto or the Disclosure Package, necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, and will reimburse the Agents for any reasonable legal expenses of counsel for the Agents, and for other documented expenses reasonably incurred by any Agent in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Registration Statement (or any amendments thereto), the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or the Disclosure Package in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by and through the Agents as set forth in Section 10(b) below expressly for use therein.

(b)            Agent Indemnification. Each Agent, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Act or the Exchange Act against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company or such director, officer or controlling person may become subject under Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendments thereto), the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or the Disclosure Package, or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact, (a) in the case of the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto, required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and (b)

in the case of the Prospectus or any supplement thereto or the Disclosure Package, necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Registration Statement (or any amendments thereto), the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or the Disclosure Package in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by and through the Agents expressly for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Agents to the Company consists of the Agent Information; and will reimburse the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred.

(i)            Each indemnified party shall give written notice as promptly as reasonably practicable to each indemnifying party of any action commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure to so notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability hereunder to the extent it is not materially prejudiced as a result thereof and in any event shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have otherwise than on account of this Section 10. In the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 10(a) above, counsel to the indemnified parties shall be selected by the Agents, and, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 10(b) above, counsel to the indemnified parties shall be selected by the Company. An indemnifying party may participate at its own expense in the defense of any such action; provided, however, that counsel to the indemnifying party shall not (except with the consent of the indemnified party) also be counsel to the indemnified party. In no event shall the indemnifying parties be liable for fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any relevant local counsel) separate from their own counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be sought under this Section 10 (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, neither the assumption of the defense of any such action nor the payment of any fees or expenses related thereto shall be deemed to be an admission by the indemnifying party that it has an obligation to indemnify any person pursuant to this Agreement.

(ii)           The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying person agrees to indemnify each indemnified party from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested that an indemnifying party reimburse the indemnified party for reasonable fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by this section, the indemnifying person shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by the indemnifying party of the proposed terms of such settlement and (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified person in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement, compromise or consent to the entry of judgment in any pending or threatened action, suit or proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity was or could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such action, suit or proceeding.

(d)            Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 10 is for any reason held to be unavailable to or otherwise insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate amount paid or payable by such indemnified party, as incurred, as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is

appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and each Agent on the other from the offering of the Placement Shares. If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law or if the indemnified party failed to give the notice required under subsection (c) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and each Agent on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and each Agent on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Shares (before deducting expenses) received by the Company, bear to the total commissions received by each Agent. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or the Agents on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Agents agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 10(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 10(d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this Section 10(d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), no Agent shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the selling commission received by such Agent in connection with the offering contemplated hereby. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 10(d), each officer and employee of the Agents and each person, if any, who controls the Agents within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Agents, and each director of the Company, each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company.

(e)            Obligations. The obligations of the Company under this Section 10 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls any Agent within the meaning of the Act; and the obligations of each Agent under this Section 10 shall be in addition to any liability which such Agent may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each officer and director of the Company and to each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Act.

11.            Representations and Agreements to Survive Delivery. All representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in certificates of officers of the Company and the Agents delivered pursuant hereto shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of the Agents or their agents, any controlling persons of the Agents, their officers or directors, or any person controlling the Company (or any of their respective officers, directors or controlling persons), (ii) delivery and acceptance of the Placement Shares and payment therefor or (iii) any termination of this Agreement.

12.            Termination.

(a)            The Agents shall have the right to terminate this Agreement at any time by giving notice as hereinafter specified if (i) any Material Adverse Effect has occurred, or any development that is reasonably expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect has occurred or any other event has occurred which, in the sole judgment of the Agents, may materially impair the Agents’ ability to proceed with the offering to sell the Shares, (ii) the Company shall have failed, refused or been unable, at or prior to any Settlement Date, to perform any agreement on its part to be performed hereunder, (iii) any other condition of the Agents’ obligations hereunder is not fulfilled, or (iv) any suspension or limitation of trading in the Common Shares of the Company on the Principal Trading Market shall have occurred. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except that the provisions of Section 7(h) (Expenses), Section 10 (Indemnification), Section 11 (Survival of Representations), Section 12(f) (Termination), Section 17 (Applicable Law; Consent to Jurisdiction) and Section 18 (Waiver of Jury Trial) hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination. If the Agents elect to terminate this Agreement as provided in this Section 12(a), the Agents shall provide the required notice as specified in Section 13 (Notices).

(b)            The Company shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in its sole discretion at any time by giving five (5) days’ notice as hereinafter specified. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except that the provisions of Section 7(h), Section 10, Section 11, Section 12(f), Section 17 and Section 18 hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination.

(c)            In addition to, and without limiting the Agents’ rights under Section 12(a), the Agents shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in their sole discretion at any time after the date of this Agreement by giving five (5) days’ notice as hereinafter specified. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except that the provisions of Section 7(h), Section 10, Section 11, Section 12(f), Section 17 and Section 18 hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination.

(d)            This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect unless terminated pursuant to Sections 12(a), 12(b) or 12(c) above or otherwise by mutual agreement of the parties; provided that any such termination by mutual agreement shall in all cases be deemed to provide that Section 7(h), Section 10, Section 11, Section 12(f), Section 17 and Section 18 shall remain in full force and effect.

(e)            Any termination of this Agreement shall be effective on the date specified in such notice of termination; provided that such termination shall not be effective until the close of business on the date of receipt of such notice by the Agents or the Company, as the case may be. If such termination shall occur prior to the Settlement Date for any sale of Placement Shares, such Placement Shares shall settle in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

(f)             In the event that the Company terminates this Agreement, as permitted under Section 12(b), the Company shall be under no continuing obligation pursuant to this Agreement to utilize the services of the Agents in connection with any sale of securities of the Company or to pay any compensation to the Agents other than compensation with respect to sales of Placement Shares subscribed on or before the termination date and the Company shall be free to engage other placement agents and underwriters from and after the termination date with no continuing obligation to the Agents.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Business Day” shall mean any day on which the Principal Trading Market and commercial banks in the city of New York are open for business.

14.            Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and the Agents and their respective successors and assigns, controlling persons, officers and directors referred to in Section 10 hereof. References to any of either of the parties contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to include the successors and permitted assigns of such party. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto or their respective successors and permitted assigns any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided in this Agreement. Neither party may assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party; provided, however, that any Agent may assign its rights and obligations hereunder to an affiliate of such Agent without obtaining the Company’s consent.

15.            Adjustments for Share Splits. The parties acknowledge and agree that all share-related numbers contained in this Agreement shall be adjusted to take into account any share split, share dividend or similar event effected with respect to the Shares.

16.            Entire Agreement; Amendment; Severability. This Agreement (including all schedules and exhibits attached hereto and placement notices issued pursuant hereto) constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all other prior and contemporaneous agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the parties hereto with regard to the subject matter hereof, including but not limited to the Original Agreement. Neither this Agreement nor any term hereof may be amended except pursuant to a written instrument executed by the Company and the Agents. In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained herein, or the application thereof in any circumstance, is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of any such provision in every other respect and of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not be affected or impaired thereby.

17.            Applicable Law; Consent to Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the state of New York without regard to the principles of conflicts of laws. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the city of New York, borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection with any transaction contemplated hereby, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof (certified or registered mail, return receipt requested) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law.

18.            Waiver of Jury Trial. The Company and the Agents hereby irrevocably waive any right either may have to a trial by jury in respect of any claim based upon or arising out of this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby.

19.            Absence of Fiduciary Duties. The parties acknowledge that they are sophisticated in business and financial matters and that each of them is solely responsible for making its own independent investigation and analysis of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. They further acknowledge that the Agents have not been engaged by the Company to provide, and have not provided, financial advisory services in connection with the terms of the offering and sale of the Shares nor have the Agents assumed at any time a fiduciary relationship to the Company in connection with such offering and sale. The parties also acknowledge that the provisions of this Agreement fairly allocate the risks of the transactions contemplated hereby among them in light of their respective knowledge of the

Company and their respective abilities to investigate its affairs and business in order to assure that full and adequate disclosure has been made in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (and any amendments and supplements thereto). The Company hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims it may have against the Agents for breach of fiduciary duty or alleged breach of fiduciary duty and agrees the Agents shall have no liability (whether direct or indirect) to the Company in respect of such a fiduciary duty claim or to any person asserting a fiduciary duty claim on behalf of or in right of the Company, including shareholders, employees or creditors of Company.

20.            Judgment of Currency. The obligation of the Company in respect of any sum due to any Agent under this Agreement shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than U.S. dollars or any other applicable currency (the “Judgment Currency”), not be discharged until the first Business Day, following receipt by such Agent of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, on which (and only to the extent that) such Agent may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase U.S. dollars or any other applicable currency with the Judgment Currency; if the U.S. dollars or other applicable currency so purchased are less than the sum originally due to such Agent hereunder, the Company agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Agent against such loss. If the U.S. dollars or other applicable currency so purchased are greater than the sum originally due to any Agent hereunder, such Agent agrees to pay to the Company an amount equal to the excess of the U.S. dollars or other applicable currency so purchased over the sum originally due to such Agent hereunder.

21.            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. Delivery of an executed Agreement by one party to the other may be made by facsimile or email transmission.
