underwriting agreement (the
“Underwriting Agreement”) with Maxim Group LLC, as representative of the several underwriters named therein (the
“Underwriters”) with respect to the issuance and sale of: (i)
29,130,000
shares (the

“Pre-Funded Warrants”), and (iii) warrants to purchase an aggregate of
33,230,000
shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of
$0.65
per share (the
“Common Warrants” and, together with the Pre-Funded Warrants, the
“Warrants” and, together with the Shares and the Pre-Funded Warrants, the
“Securities”), in an underwritten public offering (the
“Offering”) pursuant to the
Underwriting Agreement.
Each Share was sold together with a Common Warrant to purchase
one
share of Common Stock, at a combined price to the public of
$0.65
per share of Common Stock and accompanying Warrant. Each Pre-Funded Warrant was sold together with a Common Warrant to purchase

1933,
as amended (the
“Securities Act”), registering the issuance of the shares of Common Stock underlying the Common Warrants is
not
effective or available and an exemption from registration under the Securities Act is
not
available for the issuance of such shares, the holders of the Common Warrants
may,
in their sole discretion, elect to exercise their Common Warrants through a cashless exercise. The exercise of the Common Warrants is subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations. The warrants were issued pursuant to the terms of a warrant agency agreement between
the Company and Broadridge Issuer Solutions, Inc., as warrant agent.

Underwriting Agreement,
the Company granted the Underwriters a
45
-day option to purchase up to an additional
4,984,500
shares of Common Stock and/or
4,984,500
Warrants to cover over-allotments, if any (the
“Over-Allotment”). On
the Underwriter exercised its Over-Allotment option in full on both the Common Stock and the Warrants.
Pursuant to the
Underwriting Agreement,
the Company paid the Underwriter a cash fee equal to
8%
of the aggregate gross proceeds sold in the Offering and also agreed to reimburse the Underwriter for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses related to the Offering, including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Underwriters, in the aggregate maximum amount of up to
$80,000.
The
Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by
the Company, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of
the Company and the Underwriters, including for liabilities under the Securities Act, other obligations of the parties and termination provisions. The representations, warranties and agreements made by the parties in the
Underwriting Agreement were made solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreement, including, in some cases, for the purpose of allocating risk among the parties, and should
not
be deemed to be a representation, warranty or agreement to or in favor of any party. In addition, the assertions embodied in any representations, warranties and agreements contained in the
Underwriting Agreement may
be subject to qualifications with respect to knowledge and materiality different from those applicable to security holders generally. Moreover, such representations, warranties and agreements should
