The Purchaser has sought such accounting, legal and Tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed decision with respect to its acquisition of the Shares.

ARTICLE IV

COVENANTS; OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES

4.1 Transfer Restrictions.

(a) Compliance with Laws. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article IV, the Purchaser covenants that the Shares may be disposed of only pursuant to an effective registration statement under, and in compliance with the requirements of, the Securities Act, or pursuant to an available exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and in compliance with any applicable state, federal or foreign securities laws. In connection with any transfer of the Shares other than (i) pursuant to an effective registration statement, (ii) to the Company, or (iii) pursuant to Rule 144 (provided that the transferor provides the Company with reasonable assurances (in the form of a seller representation letter and, if applicable, a broker representation letter) that such securities may be sold pursuant to such rule), the Company may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company and the Transfer Agent, at the transferor’s expense, an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor and reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Transfer Agent, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Transfer Agent, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such Shares under the Securities Act.

(b) Legends. Book-entry statements or stock certificates evidencing the Shares shall bear any legend as required by the “blue sky” laws of any state and a restrictive legend in substantially the following form, until such time as they are not required under Section 4.1(c) or applicable Law:

THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR (B) AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR BLUE SKY LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY AND ITS TRANSFER AGENT OR (II) UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 UNDER SAID ACT (PROVIDED THAT THE TRANSFEROR PROVIDES THE COMPANY WITH REASONABLE ASSURANCES (IN THE FORM OF A SELLER REPRESENTATION LETTER AND, IF APPLICABLE, A BROKER REPRESENTATION LETTER) THAT THE SECURITIES MAY BE SOLD PURSUANT TO SUCH RULE). NO REPRESENTATION IS MADE BY THE ISSUER AS TO THE AVAILABILITY OF THE EXEMPTION PROVIDED BY RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT FOR RESALES OF THESE SECURITIES.

The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Purchaser may from time to time pledge, and/or grant a security interest in, some or all of the legended Shares in connection with applicable securities laws, pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement in compliance with a bona fide margin loan. Such a pledge would not be subject to approval or consent of the Company and no legal opinion of legal counsel to the pledgee, secured party or pledgor shall be required in connection with the pledge, but such legal opinion shall be required in connection with a subsequent transfer or foreclosure following default by the Purchaser transferee of the pledge. No notice shall be required of such pledge, but the Purchaser’s transferee shall promptly notify the Company of any such subsequent transfer or foreclosure of such legended Shares. Each Purchaser acknowledges that the Company shall not be responsible for any pledges relating to, or the grant of any security interest in, any of the Shares or for any agreement, understanding or arrangement between the Purchaser and its pledgee or secured party. At the appropriate Purchaser’s expense, the Company will execute and deliver such reasonable documentation as a pledgee or secured party of Shares may reasonably request in connection with a pledge or transfer of the Shares, including the preparation and filing of any required prospectus supplement under Rule 424(b)(3) of the Securities Act or other applicable provision of the Securities Act to appropriately amend the list of selling stockholders thereunder. Each Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that, except as otherwise provided in Section 4.1(c), any Shares subject to a pledge or security interest as contemplated by this Section 4.1(b) shall continue to bear the legend set forth in this Section 4.1(b) and be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 4.1(a).

(c) Removal of Legends. The restrictive legend set forth in Section 4.1(b) above shall be removed and the Company shall issue a certificate without such restrictive legend or any other restrictive legend to the holder of the applicable Shares upon which it is stamped or issue to such holder by electronic delivery at the applicable balance account at the Purchaser’s designated custodian, if (i) such Shares are registered for resale under the Securities Act, (ii) such Shares are sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144, or (iii) such Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable) as to such securities and without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions. Upon Rule 144 becoming available for the resale of Shares, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable) as to the Shares and without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions, the Company shall instruct the Transfer Agent to remove the legend from the Shares and shall cause its counsel to issue any legend removal opinion required by the Transfer Agent. Any fees (with respect to the Transfer Agent, Company counsel or otherwise) associated with the issuance of such opinion or the removal of such legend shall be borne by the Company. If a legend is no longer required pursuant to the foregoing, the Company will no later than three (3) Trading Days following the delivery by the Purchaser to the Transfer Agent (with notice to the Company) of a legended certificate or instrument representing such Shares (endorsed or with stock powers attached, signatures guaranteed, and otherwise in form necessary to affect the reissuance and/or transfer) and a representation letter to the extent required by Section 4.1(a), deliver or cause to be delivered to the Purchaser a certificate or instrument (as the case may be) representing the Shares that are free from all restrictive legends. The Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to the Transfer Agent that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 4.1(c). Certificates for the Shares free from all restrictive legends may be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Purchaser by crediting the account of the Purchaser’s prime broker with the Purchaser’s designated custodian as directed by the Purchaser.

(d) Acknowledgement. Each Purchaser hereunder acknowledges its primary responsibilities under the Securities Act and accordingly will not sell or otherwise transfer the Shares or any interest therein without complying with the requirements of the Securities Act.

4.2 Acknowledgment of Dilution. The Company and each Major Shareholder acknowledges that the issuance of the Shares will result in dilution of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. The Company and each Major Shareholder further acknowledges that its obligations under the Transaction Documents, including without limitation its obligation to issue the Shares pursuant to the Transaction Documents, are unconditional and absolute and not subject to any right of set off, counterclaim, delay or reduction, regardless of the effect of any such dilution or any claim the Company or the Major Shareholders may have against the Purchaser and regardless of the dilutive effect that such issuance may have on the ownership of the other shareholders of the Company.

4.3 Form D and Blue Sky. The Company agrees to timely file a Form D with respect to the Shares as required under Regulation D. The Company, on or before the Closing Date, 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 the Closing pursuant to this Agreement under applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States (or to obtain an exemption from such qualification). The Company shall make all filings and reports relating to the offer and sale of the Shares required under applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States following the Closing Date.

4.4 No Integration. The Company shall not, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that no Affiliate of the Company shall, sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that will be integrated with the offer or sale of the Shares in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Shares to the Purchaser.

4.5 Securities Law Disclosure; Publicity. On or before 5:30 p.m., New York City time, on the fourth (4th) Trading Day immediately following the execution of this Agreement, the Company will file a Current Report on Form 8-K with the Commission describing the terms of the Transaction Documents (and including as exhibits to such Current Report on Form 8-K the material Transaction Documents). By 12:00 p.m., Amarillo, Texas time, on the Business Day immediately following execution of this Agreement, the Company shall issue a press release (the “Press Release”) reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser disclosing the transactions contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Company nor any Major Shareholder shall publicly disclose the name of the Purchaser or any Affiliate or investment adviser of the Purchaser, or include the name of the Purchaser or any Affiliate or investment adviser of the Purchaser in any Press Release or in any filing with the Commission or any regulatory agency or Trading Market, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, except to the extent such disclosure is required by applicable Law (including federal securities law), in which case the Company or such Major Shareholder, as applicable, shall provide the Purchaser with prior written notice of such disclosure permitted under this Section 4.5.

4.6 Non-Public Information. Except with the express written consent of the Purchaser and unless prior thereto the Purchaser shall have executed a written agreement regarding the confidentiality and use of such information, the Company and each Major Shareholder shall not, and shall cause each Subsidiary and each of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, not to, and the Purchaser shall not directly solicit the Company, each Major Shareholder, each Subsidiary or any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents to provide the Purchaser with any material, non-public information regarding the Company or any Subsidiary from and after the filing of the Press Release.

4.7 Indemnification.

(a) Indemnification of the Purchaser. In addition to the indemnity provided in Section 4.23 of this Agreement, if any, the Company and each of the Major Shareholders, jointly and severally, shall indemnify and hold the Purchaser and its directors, officers, shareholders, members, partners, employees, agents and investment advisers (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, shareholders, agents, members, partners, employees, agents and investment advisers (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 (each, an “Indemnified Person”) harmless from any and all damages, liabilities, obligations, claims, contingencies, costs and expenses, including all judgments, amounts paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of investigation that any such Indemnified Person may suffer or incur as a result (collectively, “Losses”) of (i) any breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Company or the Major Shareholders in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents, (ii) any Proceeding instituted against an Indemnified Person in any capacity, or any of them or their respective Affiliates, by any shareholder of the Company or other third party who is not an Affiliate of such Indemnified Person, with respect to any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or (iii) any Proceeding involving the Company arising out of or related to any event, fact, change, occurrence, development or condition prior to the Closing.

(b) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Promptly after receipt by any Indemnified Person of any notice of any demand, claim or circumstances which would or might give rise to a claim or the commencement of any Proceeding in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 4.7(a), such Indemnified Person shall promptly notify the Company and the Major Shareholders in writing and the Company and the Major Shareholders shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, and shall assume the payment of all fees and expenses; provided that the failure of any Indemnified Person to so notify the Company or any Major Shareholder shall not relieve the Company or each Major Shareholder of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that such failure shall have materially and adversely prejudiced the Company and the Major Shareholders (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, which determination is not subject to appeal or further review). In any such Proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless: (i) the Company or the Major Shareholders and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel; (ii) the Company and the Major Shareholders shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such Proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person in such Proceeding; or (iii) in the reasonable judgment of counsel to such Indemnified Person, representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. Without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, neither the Company nor any Major Shareholder shall effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from all liability arising out of such Proceeding.

(c) Once a Loss is agreed to by the Company or finally adjudicated to be payable to an Indemnified Person pursuant to this Section 4.7, the Company and the Major Shareholders shall satisfy its indemnification obligations to such Indemnified Person within fifteen (15) days of such agreement or final adjudication by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such Indemnified Person in accordance with wire transfer instructions to be provided by such Indemnified Person.

The Company shall use the net proceeds from the sale of the Shares hereunder and revenues from the Patent Assets pursuant to the Patent Assignment, for expansive growth in the Covid-19 rapid tests business, working capital and general corporate purposes related to such business goals.

4.9 No Change in Control. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain all necessary irrevocable waivers, adopt any required amendments and make all appropriate determinations so that the issuance of the Shares to the Purchaser will not trigger a “change in control” or other similar provision in any of the agreements to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party, including without limitation any employment, “change in control,” severance or other agreements and any benefit plan, which results in payments to the counterparty or the acceleration of vesting of benefits.

4.10 Reasonable Efforts. Each of the Company, the Major Shareholders, and the Purchaser agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the Purchaser in doing, all commercially reasonable things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner commercially practicable, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Transaction Documents, including using commercially reasonable efforts to accomplish the following: (a) the taking of all reasonable acts necessary to cause the conditions to the Closings to be satisfied; (b) the obtaining of all necessary actions or nonactions, waivers, consents and approvals from Governmental Entities and the making of all necessary registrations and filings and the taking of all reasonable steps necessary to obtain an approval or waiver from, or to avoid an action or Proceeding by, any Governmental Entities; (c) the obtaining of all necessary consents, approvals or waivers from third parties; and (d) the execution and delivery of any additional instruments necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by, and to fully carry out the purposes of, this Agreement and the Transaction Documents, including the assignment of the Patent Assets pursuant to the Patent Assignment.

4.11 Notice of Certain Events. Each party hereto shall promptly notify the other party hereto of (a) any event, condition, fact, circumstance, occurrence, transaction or other item of which such party becomes aware prior to the Closing that would constitute a violation or breach of the Transaction Documents (or a breach of any representation or warranty contained herein or therein) or, if the same were to continue to exist as of the Closing Date, would constitute the non-satisfaction of any of the conditions set forth in Sections 5.1 or 5.2 hereof, and (b) any event, condition, fact, circumstance, occurrence, transaction or other item of which such party becomes aware that would have been required to have been disclosed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement had such event, condition, fact, circumstance, occurrence, transaction or other item existed as of the date hereof; provided that delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 4.11 shall not modify the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or obligations of the parties (or remedies with respect thereto) or the conditions to the obligations of the parties under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither party shall be required to take any action that would jeopardize such party’s attorney-client privilege.

4.12 Shareholder Litigation. The Company shall promptly inform the Purchaser of any claim, action, suit, arbitration, mediation, demand, hearing, investigation or Proceeding (“Shareholder Litigation”) against the Company, any Subsidiary or any of the past or present executive officers or directors of the Company or any Subsidiary that is threatened in writing or initiated by or on behalf of any shareholder of the Company in connection with or relating to the transactions contemplated hereby or by the Transaction Documents.

(a) Within ten (10) days following of the date of this Agreement, the Company shall establish a record date (which date shall be mutually agreed with the Purchaser) and duly call and give notice of a special meeting of the shareholders of the Company (the “Special Meeting”) in connection with a vote on the following matters: (i) the adoption of this Agreement and approval of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents; (ii) the issuance of Shares; (iii) the amendment and restatement of the Charter Documents, to among other things, (A) increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock to three hundred million (300,000,000) shares, which shall be the total amount of capital stock of the Company, (B) rename the Company to “Ainos, Inc.” or any other corporate name designated by the Purchaser; and (C) decrease the number of authorized shares of Preferred Stock to zero (0); (iv) the expansion of the number of directors on the Board and the election of directors, as designated by the parties in accordance with Section 4.17; and (v) any other proposals the parties deem necessary or desirable to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents (collectively, the “Company Shareholder Matters”). The Company and each Major Shareholder shall use its best efforts to obtain the approval of the Company Shareholder Matters at the Special Meeting.

(b) The Company shall include the Company Recommendation in the notice to the shareholders for the Special Meeting. The board of directors of the Company shall not (and no committee or subgroup thereof shall) change, withdraw, withhold, qualify or modify, or publicly propose to change, withdraw, withhold, qualify or modify, the Company Recommendation (a “Change in Recommendation”); provided, that the board of directors of the Company may make a Change in Recommendation if it determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that a failure to make a Change in Recommendation would reasonably be expected to constitute a breach by the Company’s board of directors of its fiduciary obligations to the Company’s shareholders under applicable Law. The Company agrees that its obligation to establish a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold the Special Meeting for the purpose of seeking approval of the Company Shareholder Matters shall not be affected by any Change in Recommendation, and the Company agrees to establish a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold the Special Meeting and submit for the approval of the Company Shareholder Matters regardless of whether or not there shall have occurred any Change in Recommendation.

(c) From the date hereof until any termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, at the Special Meeting (or any meeting of the stockholders of the Company however called) (or any action by written consent in lieu of a meeting) or any adjournment thereof, each Major Shareholder shall vote all shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Major Shareholder (the “Major Shareholder Shares”) (or cause them to be voted), or execute written consents in respect thereof, (i) in favor of the adoption of the Company Shareholder Matters and the approval of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) against any action or agreement that would result in a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or other obligation of the Company in this Agreement, (iii) against any Acquisition Proposal, and (iv) against any agreement, amendment of the Charter Documents or other action that is intended or could reasonably be expected to prevent, impede, interfere with, delay, postpone or discourage the consummation of the sales of the Shares or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Any such vote shall be cast (or consent shall be given) by each Major Shareholder in accordance with such procedures relating thereto so as to ensure that it is duly counted, including for purposes of determining that a quorum is present and for purposes of recording the results of such vote (or consent).

(d) From the date hereof until any termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, each Major Shareholder shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, (i) sell, transfer (including by operation of law), give, pledge, encumber, assign or otherwise dispose of, or enter into any contract, option or other arrangement or understanding with respect to the sale, transfer, gift, pledge, encumbrance, assignment or other disposition of, any Major Shareholder Shares, (ii) deposit any Major Shareholder Shares into a voting trust or grant any proxies or enter into a voting agreement, power of attorney or voting trust with respect to any Major Shareholder Shares, or (iii) take any action that would make any representation or warranty of the Major Shareholder set forth in this Agreement untrue or incorrect in any material respect or have the effect of preventing, disabling or materially delaying the Major Shareholder from performing any of its obligations under this Agreement.

(e) During the time period commencing after the Closing and continuing until the relisting of the Company’s Common Stock as contemplated pursuant to Section 4.19, the Major Shareholders shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, sell, transfer (including by operation of law), give, pledge, encumber, assign or otherwise dispose of, or enter into any contract, option or other arrangement or understanding with respect to the sale, transfer, gift, pledge, encumbrance, assignment or other disposition of, any Major Shareholder Shares, at a per share price less than twenty four cents ($0.24) per share of Common Stock.

(f) The Company shall make all required filings with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby including the Special Meeting or any written consent of the Company’s shareholders approving the Company Shareholder Matters under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, and all other applicable federal and state securities Laws and “blue sky” Laws, including, without limitation, any proxy statement or information statement required to be prepared in connection therewith (the “Required Filings”). As promptly as practicable after the execution of this Agreement, the Company shall prepare and file with the Commission (i) a proxy statement on Schedule 14A to the extent it will solicit proxies for the Special Meeting or (ii) to the extent that it will not solicit proxies for the Special Meeting or will obtain its shareholder approval of the Company Shareholder Matters by written consent, an information statement on Schedule 14C. Each party shall use its reasonable best efforts to ensure that the information supplied or to be supplied by such party specifically for inclusion or incorporation in the Required Filings, at the time any such Required Filing is filed with the Commission, does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading.

(g) Prior to Closing, each Major Shareholder shall cause any and all Persons Controlled by such Major Shareholder to execute and deliver to the Purchaser a joinder agreement (in a form reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser) whereby such Person agrees to be bound to the terms and conditions of this Agreement as a Major Shareholder.

4.19 NASDAQ Trading Market Relisting. After the Closing Date, the Company, the Purchaser and each Major Shareholder shall each use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Company to be qualified for the listing requirements to list the shares of the Company’s Common Stock on one of the following Trading Markets: the NASDAQ Global Select Market, the NASDAQ Global Market, or the NASDAQ Capital Market and to file an application with the Commission and the applicable NASDAQ Trading Market in connection herewith.

4.20 Additional Working Capital. Following the Closing Date and at any time and from time to time prior to the Trading Market relisting of the Company pursuant to Section 4.19, to the extent that the Company experiences immediate working capital needs, the parties will use their commercially reasonable efforts to enter into an additional agreement whereby the Purchaser will provide the Company with up to an additional three million U.S. dollars ($3,000,000) for working capital purposes, in the form of a loan, or in exchange for additional shares of Common Stock, or other debt or equity securities.

4.21 Voting Agreement. Within twelve (12) months following the date of this Agreement, the Company shall cause each of the principal shareholders of the Company holding ten percent (10%) or more of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company, to enter into a voting agreement in which the Purchaser shall have the authority and power to exercise the voting rights of such shareholders at subsequent shareholders meetings of the Company.

4.22 Restrictions on Post-Closing Stock Splits and Company Sales Below FMV. During the time period commencing after the Closing and continuing until the relisting of the Company’s Common Stock as contemplated pursuant to Section 4.19, the Company shall not (a) split, combine, or reclassify any of its capital stock, or (b) issue or agree to issue any additional shares of Common Stock, common stock equivalents or other securities at a per-share-price (determined on an as converted basis) less than eighty percent (80%) of the six (6)-month Trading Day per-share-price average for such security.

4.23 Registration Rights.

(a) Registration of Shares. Following the Closing Date, the Company shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable, (i) file with the Commission (A) a resale shelf registration statement under the Securities Act on Form S-3 (or any successor short form registration involving a similar amount of disclosure) or if then ineligible to use any such form, then any other available form of registration statement, or (B) pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, a prospectus supplement that shall be deemed to be part of an existing shelf registration statement in accordance with Rule 430B under the Securities Act, in each case for a public offering of the Shares received by the Purchaser (the “Registrable Stock”) to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (the “Registration Statement”) and, in the case of clause (A) above, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to become effective within 180 days after the Closing Date, (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to remain effective until the earlier of (1) the date when all Registrable Stock covered by the Registration Statement has been sold or (2) the date when all Registrable Stock covered by the Registration Statement first becomes eligible for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act without volume limitation or other restrictions on transfer thereunder, and (iii) use its reasonable best efforts to prepare and file with the Commission any required amendments to the Registration Statement and the prospectus (including any prospectus supplement) used in connection therewith (“Shelf Prospectus”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no obligation to register or to maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement after all Registrable Stock covered by the Registration Statement first becomes eligible for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act without volume limitation or other restrictions on transfer thereunder. In the event that the filing deadline contemplated by this Section 4.23(a) shall occur during a trading “blackout” period under the Company’s securities trading policies, then the Company shall not be required to file the Registration Statement contemplated by this Section 4.23(a) until such “blackout” period is no longer applicable. In addition, the Company may postpone for a reasonable period of time, not to exceed 60 days, the filing of a Registration Statement contemplated by this Section 4.23(a) if the Company, in its reasonable good faith judgment (after consultation with its legal advisors), has determined that the offer and sale or other disposition of Registrable Stock pursuant to the Registration Statement would require public disclosure by the Company of material nonpublic information that the Company is not otherwise obligated to disclose, provided, however, that the Company shall file such Registration Statement as soon as reasonably practicable following the lapsing or expiration of the circumstances that led the Company to delay such filing.

(b) Suspension of Registration. (i) Upon the issuance by the Commission of a stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation of any legal proceeding with respect to the Registration Statement under Section 8(d) or 8(e) of the Securities Act, or (ii) if the Registration Statement or Shelf Prospectus shall 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 (including, in any such case, as a result of the non-availability of financial statements), (iii) the Company, in its reasonable good faith judgment, has determined that the offer and sale or other disposition of Registrable Stock would require public disclosure by the Company of material nonpublic information that is not included in the Registration Statement and that immediate disclosure of such information would be materially detrimental to the Company, or (iv) upon the occurrence or existence of any other development, event, fact, situation or circumstance relating to the Company that, in the judgment of a majority of the board of directors of the Company, makes it appropriate to suspend the availability of the Registration Statement and/or Shelf Prospectus, (A)(1) in the case of clause (ii) above, and subject to clauses (iii) and (iv) above, the Company shall as promptly as reasonably practicable prepare and file a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement or a supplement to the related Shelf Prospectus, as applicable, so that such Registration Statement or Shelf Prospectus, as applicable, does 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 subject to clause (iii) above, in the case of a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause it to become effective as promptly as reasonably practicable, and (2) in the case of clause (i) above, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such stop order to be lifted, and (B) the Company shall give notice to the Purchaser that the availability of such Registration Statement or Shelf Prospectus is suspended (a “Deferral Notice”) and, upon receipt of any Deferral Notice, the Purchaser agrees that it shall not sell any Registrable Stock pursuant to the Registration Statement or Shelf Prospectus until the Purchaser is notified by the Company of the effectiveness of the post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement provided for in clause (A) above, or until it is notified in writing by the Company that the Shelf Prospectus may be used. In connection with any development, event, fact, situation or circumstance covered by clause (iii) above, the Company shall be entitled to exercise its rights pursuant to this Section 4.23(b) to suspend the availability of the Registration Statement and Shelf Prospectus for no more than an aggregate of 60 days in the aggregate in any one year period.

(c) Registration Expenses. In connection with the performance of its obligations under this Section 4.23(b), the Company shall pay all registration fees under the Securities Act, all printing expenses and all fees and disbursements of the Company’s legal counsel, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and any other persons retained by the Company, and any other expenses incurred by the Company. The Purchaser shall pay any discounts, commissions and transfer taxes, if any, attributable to the sale of Registrable Stock and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of other advisors and agents, if any) incurred by it; provided, however, that the Company shall pay the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket legal fees and expenses of the Purchaser under this Section 4.23(b).

(d) Purchaser’s Obligations. The Purchaser (i) shall furnish to the Company such information as is required to be included under the Securities Act in the Registration Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or any Shelf Prospectus, (ii) shall comply with the prospectus delivery requirements under the Securities Act in connection with the sale or other distribution of Registrable Stock pursuant to the Registration Statement, and (iii) shall report to the Company all sales or other distributions of Registrable Stock pursuant to the Registration Statement.

(e) Indemnification and Contribution by the Company. The Company shall, notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Purchaser, the officers, directors, agents, partners, members, managers, stockholders, affiliates and employees of the Purchaser, each person who controls the Purchaser (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and the officers, directors, partners, members, managers, stockholders, agents and employees of each such controlling person, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable costs of preparation and investigation and reasonable attorneys’ fees) and expenses (collectively, “Damages”), as incurred, that arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any Shelf Prospectus or any form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any Shelf Prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, or (ii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law or any rule or regulation thereunder, in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Section 4.23, except to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statements, alleged untrue statements, omissions or alleged omissions are based solely upon information regarding the Purchaser furnished in writing to the Company by the Purchaser expressly for use therein, or to the extent that such information relates to the Purchaser or the Purchaser’s proposed method of distribution of Registrable Stock and was reviewed and approved in writing by the Purchaser expressly for use in the Registration Statement, such Shelf Prospectus or such form of Shelf Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or, (B) to the extent that any such Damages arise out of the Purchaser’s (or any other indemnified person’s) failure to send or give a copy of the Shelf Prospectus or supplement (as then amended or supplemented), if required, pursuant to Rule 172 under the Securities Act (or any successor rule) to the persons asserting an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of Registrable Stock to such person if such statement or omission was corrected in such Shelf Prospectus or supplement. The Company shall notify the Purchaser promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any proceeding arising from or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Section 4.23 of which the Company is aware. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of an indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Stock by the Purchaser. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 4.23(e) from the Company is unavailable to an indemnified party hereunder in respect of any Damages, the Company, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such Damages, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company and indemnified party in connection with the actions which resulted in such Damages, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The obligations of the Company and the Purchaser under this Section 4.23(e) shall survive the completion of any offering or sale of Registrable Stock pursuant to any Registration Statement. Each Major Shareholder shall be jointly and severally responsible with the Company for the indemnification and contribution obligations provided in this Section 4.23.

This Agreement, or any rights or obligations hereunder, may not be assigned by the Company without the prior written consent of the Purchaser.

Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such Proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) 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.

This Agreement may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party, it being understood that the parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission, or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature page were an original thereof.

6.11 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and the parties will attempt to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision that is a reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Agreement.

If any certificate or instrument evidencing any of the 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 the Transfer Agent for any losses in connection therewith or, if required by the Transfer Agent, a bond in such form and amount as is 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 such Shares. If a replacement certificate or instrument evidencing any of the 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.

6.13 Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, the Purchaser and the Company may be entitled to specific performance under the Transaction Documents. The parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations described in the foregoing sentence and hereby agree to waive in any action for specific performance of any such obligation (other than in connection with any action for a temporary restraining order) the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

6.14 Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to the Purchaser pursuant to any Transaction Document or the Purchaser enforces or exercises its rights thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

6.15 Termination.

(a) This Agreement may be terminated and the sale and purchase of the Shares abandoned at any time prior to the Closing:

(i) by the written consent of the Company and the Purchaser;

(ii) by the Purchaser upon written notice to the Company, if the Closing has not been consummated on or prior to 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on the Outside Date; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 6.15(a)(ii) shall not be available to the Purchaser if its failure to comply with its obligations under this Agreement has been the cause of or resulted in the failure of the Closing to occur on or before such time;

(iv) by the Purchaser, upon written notice to the Company, if (A) there has been a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the Company or any Major Shareholder in this Agreement, or any such representation or warranty shall have become untrue after the date of this Agreement, in each case such that a closing condition in Section 5.1(a) or Section 5.1(b) would not be satisfied or (B) there has been a Material Adverse Effect since the date of the Agreement and such event, circumstance, change or occurrence shall be incapable of being cured within fifteen (15) days after such event, circumstance, change or occurrence;

(v) by the Company, upon written notice to the Purchaser, if there has been a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the Purchaser in this Agreement, or any such representation or warranty shall have become untrue after the date of this Agreement, in each case such that a closing condition in Section 5.1(a) or Section 5.1(b) would not be satisfied with respect to the Purchaser;

(vi) by the Purchaser, if the Company directly or indirectly effects, causes to be effected, or enters into any definitive agreement to effect any transaction with a third-party with respect to an Acquisition Proposal or that would reasonably be expected to result in a “change in control” of the Company;

(vii) by the Purchaser if, prior to the Special Meeting (including any adjournments thereof), the Company’s Board shall have made a Change in Recommendation; or

(viii) by the Purchaser or the Company if, at the Special Meeting (including any adjournments thereof), the Company Shareholder Matters are not duly adopted by the shareholders of the Company by the requisite vote under applicable Law and the Charter Documents.

(b) Nothing in this Section 6.15 shall be deemed to release any party from any liability for any breach by such party of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or to impair the right of any party to compel specific performance by any other party of its obligations under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents. Upon a termination in accordance with this Section 6.15, the Company and the Purchaser shall not have any further obligation or liability (including arising from such termination) to the other.

6.16 Rescission and Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) the Transaction Documents, whenever the Purchaser exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction Document and the Company does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then the Purchaser may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights.

6.17 Adjustments in Common Stock Numbers and Prices. 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 and prior to the Closing, each reference in any Transaction Document to a number of shares or a price per share shall be deemed to be amended to appropriately account for such event.

The Shares being delivered to the Purchaser pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement have been duly and validly authorized and, when issued, delivered and paid for as contemplated in the Securities Purchase Agreement, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and free of any preemptive right or similar rights contained in the Company’s Restated Certificate of Formation or Bylaws.

As of the date hereof, the holders of shares of Common Stock are not entitled to preemptive rights arising solely by operation of (i) the Governing Documents or (ii) the Texas Corporations Laws.

Exhibit A | Page 1

No consent, approval, authorization or order of, or filing with, any governmental agency or body or any court is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance of the Transaction Documents by the Company, or in connection with the issuance or sale of the Shares by the Company to the Purchaser, except (i) the filing with the Commission of one or more Registration Statements in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement, (ii) filings required by applicable state securities laws, (iii) the filing of a Notice of Sale of Securities on Form D with the Commission under Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (iv) the filing of any requisite notices and/or application(s) to the Nasdaq Capital Market for the issuance and sale of the Shares and the listing of the Shares for trading thereon in the time and manner required thereby, (v) the Required Filings required in accordance with Section 4.18 of the Purchase Agreement, (vi) the Stockholder Approval, and (vii) those that have been made or obtained prior to the date hereof.

It is not necessary in connection with the offer and sale of the Shares to the Purchaser under the Securities Purchase Agreement to register the Shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Purchaser in the Securities Purchase Agreement.
