b. the Chardan Shares shall be entitled to the same registration rights available to the Founder Shares in Article II of the Registration Rights Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, each Chardan Share shall be deemed to be a “Registrable Security” for purposes of the Registration Rights Agreement, and Chardan agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Registration Rights Agreement.
