The provisions of Sections 7.2 through 7.5 shall terminate and be of no further force and effect on the date on which the Company’s obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement to register or maintain the effectiveness of any registration covering the Registrable Securities (as such term is defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) shall terminate.

7.8 Removal of Legends. In connection with any sale or disposition of the Securities by an Investor pursuant to Rule 144 or pursuant to any other exemption under the 1933 Act such that the purchaser acquires freely tradable shares and upon compliance by the Investor with the requirements of this Agreement, the Company shall or, in the case of Common Stock, shall cause the transfer agent for the Common Stock (the “Transfer Agent”) to issue replacement certificates without restrictive legends. In addition, upon the earlier of (i) the effectiveness of the registration for resale pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement or (ii) the Shares becoming freely tradable by a non-affiliate pursuant to Rule 144, the Company shall (A) deliver to the Transfer Agent irrevocable instructions that the Transfer Agent shall reissue a certificate without legends upon receipt by such Transfer Agent of the legended certificates for such shares, together with, solely with respect to a request to remove restrictive legends pursuant to Rule 144, customary representations by the Investor that the requisite holding period under Rule 144 with respect to the shares of Common Stock represented thereby has been met and that the Investor is not, and has not been, an Affiliate of the Company within a the ninety day period preceding the proposed legend removal date, and (B) cause its counsel to deliver to the Transfer Agent an opinion with respect to the Shares, and the shares of Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to the Warrants, held by the requesting Investor to the effect that the removal of such legends on such Shares and shares of Common Stock in such circumstances may be effected under the 1933 Act. The Investor agrees to deliver the representations under clause (ii) of the foregoing sentence in form and substance reasonably requested by counsel to the Company. In addition, upon the reasonable request of the Company, the Investor will represent that it has, or will comply with, the prospectus delivery requirements (including any exemptions therefrom) for the sale of the Shares and shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the Warrants under the Registration Statement, if applicable. From and after the earlier of such dates, upon an Investor’s written request, the Company shall promptly cause certificates evidencing the Investor’s Securities to be replaced with certificates which do not bear such restrictive legends, and Warrant Shares subsequently issued upon due exercise of the Warrants shall not bear such restrictive legends provided the provisions of either clause (i) or clause (ii) above, as applicable, are satisfied with respect to such Warrant Shares. When the Company is required to cause an unlegended certificate to replace a previously issued legended certificate, if: (1) the unlegended certificate is not delivered to an Investor within three (3) Trading Days (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) of submission by that Investor of a legended certificate and supporting documentation to the Transfer Agent as provided above and (2) prior to the time such unlegended certificate is received by the Investor, the Investor, or any third party on behalf of such Investor or for the Investor’s account, purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Investor of shares represented by such certificate (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall pay in cash to the Investor (for costs incurred either directly by such Investor or on behalf of a third party) the amount by which the total purchase price paid for Common Stock as a result of the Buy-In (including brokerage commissions, if any) exceeds the proceeds received by such Investor as a result of the sale to which such Buy-In relates. The Investor shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Investor in respect of the Buy-In.

7.9 Subsequent Equity Sales; Registration Statements.

(a) From the date hereof until the later of (i) ninety (90) days after the Closing Date and (ii) thirty (30) days after the first Effective Date (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) whereby all Registrable Securities are registered for resale pursuant to an effective registration statement, without the consent of the Required Investors, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall issue shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 7.9(a) shall not apply to (i) the Warrant Shares, (ii) the issuance of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents upon the conversion or exercise of any securities of the Company or a Subsidiary outstanding on the date hereof, provided that the terms of such security are not amended after the date hereof to decrease the conversion, exchange or exercise price, change of the term of any such security or increase the Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents receivable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof or (iii) the issuance of any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents pursuant to any Company equity incentive plan approved by the Company’s board of directors and in place as of the date hereof, as the same may be amended from time to time (collectedly, the “Excluded Securities”). In addition, nothing in this section 7.9(a) shall prohibit the Company from filing a “shelf registration” for the purpose of future issuances of securities, provided sales of securities under such registration statement do not commence in the time frame set forth in the first sentence of this paragraph.

(b) From the date hereof until such time as no Investor holds any unexercised Warrants (or portion thereof), the Company shall be prohibited from effecting or entering into an agreement to effect any “Variable Rate Transaction”. The term “Variable Rate Transaction” shall mean a transaction in which the Company issues or sells (i) any debt or equity securities that are convertible into, exchangeable or exercisable for, or include the right to receive additional shares of Common Stock either (A) at a conversion, exercise or exchange rate or other price that is based upon and/or varies with the trading prices of or quotations for the shares of Common Stock at any time after the initial issuance of such debt or equity securities, or (B) with a conversion, exercise or exchange price that is subject to being reset at some future date after the initial issuance of such debt or equity security or upon the occurrence of specified or contingent events directly or indirectly related to the business of the Company or the market for the Common Stock or (ii) enters into any agreement, including, but not limited to, an equity line of credit, whereby the Company may sell securities at a future determined price. For the avoidance of doubt, the issuance of a security which is subject to anti-dilution protections where the conversion, exercise or exchange price is subject to adjustment as a result of stock splits, reverse stock splits and other similar recapitalization or reclassification events, shall not be deemed to be a “Variable Rate Transaction.”

(c) 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 0000 Xxx) that will be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities in a manner that would require the registration under the 1933 Act of the sale of the Securities to the Investors, or that will be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities for purposes of the rules and regulations of any trading market such that it would require stockholder approval prior to the closing of such other transaction unless stockholder approval is obtained before the closing of such subsequent transaction.

(d) The Company shall not, from the date hereof until ninety (90) days after the first Effective Date upon which all Registrable Securities are registered for resale pursuant to an effective registration statement, prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the 1933 Act of any of its equity securities, other than any registration statement or post-effective amendment to a registration statement (or supplement thereto) relating to the Company’s employee benefit plans registered on Form S-8 or, in connection with an acquisition, on Form S-4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing shall prohibit the Company from filing a “shelf registration” for the purpose of future issuances of securities, provided sales under such registration statement do not commence in the time frame set forth in the first sentence of paragraph 7.9(a).

7.10 Equal Treatment of Investors. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration is also offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents. For clarification purposes, this provision constitutes a separate right granted to each Investor by the Company and negotiated separately by each Investor, and is intended for the Company to treat the Investors as a class and shall not in any way be construed as the Investors acting in concert or as a group with respect to the purchase, disposition or voting of Securities or otherwise.

7.11 Reporting Status. Until the date that no Warrants remain outstanding (the “Reporting Period”), the Company shall timely file all reports required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to the 1934 Act, and the Company shall not terminate its status as an issuer required to file reports under the 1934 Act even if the 1934 Act or the rule and regulations thereunder would no longer require or otherwise permit such termination.

7.12 Financial Information. The Company agrees to send the following to each Investor during the Reporting Period (i) unless the following are filed with the SEC through XXXXX and are available to the public through the XXXXX system, within one (1) Business Day after the filing thereof with the SEC, a copy of its Annual Reports on Form 10-K, any Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, any Current Reports on Form 8-K (or any analogous reports under the 0000 Xxx) and any registration statements (other than on Form S-8) or amendments filed pursuant to the 1933 Act, (ii) unless the following are filed with the SEC through XXXXX and are available to the public through the XXXXX system or posted to the Company’s website, on the same day as the release thereof, facsimile or e-mailed copies of all press releases issued by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, and (iii) copies of any notices and other information made available or given to the shareholders of the Company generally, contemporaneously with the making available or giving thereof to the shareholders.

7.13 Public Information. At any time during the period commencing from the six (6) month anniversary of the Closing Date and ending at such time that all of the Securities, if a registration statement is not available for the resale of all of the Securities, may be sold without restriction or limitation pursuant to Rule 144 and without the requirement to be in compliance with Rule 144(c)(1), if the Company shall (i) fail for any reason to satisfy the requirements of Rule 144(c)(1), including, without limitation, the failure to satisfy the current public information requirement under Rule 144(c) or (ii) if the Company has ever been an issuer described in Rule 144(i)(1)(i) or becomes such an issuer in the future, and the Company shall fail to satisfy any condition set forth in Rule 144(i)(2) (a "Public Information Failure") then, as partial relief for the damages to any Investors that still holds Securities by reason of any such delay in or reduction of its ability to sell the Securities (which remedy shall not be exclusive of any other remedies available at law or in equity), the Company shall pay to each such holder an amount in cash equal to two percent (2.0%) of the aggregate Purchase Price on the day of a Public Information Failure and on every thirtieth day (pro-rated for periods totaling less than thirty days) thereafter until the earlier of (i) the date such Public Information Failure is cured and (ii) such time that such public information is no longer required pursuant to Rule 144. The payments to which an Investor shall be entitled pursuant to this Section 4(o) are referred to herein as "Public Information Failure Payments." Public Information Failure Payments shall be paid on the earlier of (I) the last day of the calendar month during which such Public Information Failure Payments are incurred and (II) the third Business Day after the event or failure giving rise to the Public Information Failure Payments is cured. In the event the Company fails to make Public Information Failure Payments in a timely manner, such Public Information Failure Payments shall bear interest at the rate of 1.5% per month (prorated for partial months) until paid in full.

7.14 Right of Participation.

(a) For the purposes of this Section 7.14, the following definitions shall apply.

(i) "Convertible Securities" means any stock or securities (other than Options) convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock.

(ii) "Options" means any rights, warrants or options to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock or Convertible Securities.

(iii) "Common Stock Equivalents" means, collectively, Options and Convertible Securities.

(iv) “Subsequent Placement” means any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition of any of its or its Subsidiaries' debt, equity or equity equivalent securities, including without limitation any debt, preferred stock or other instrument or security that is, at any time during its life and under any circumstances, convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents.

(b) From the Closing Date until the two year anniversary of the Closing Date, the Company will not, directly or indirectly, effect any Subsequent Placement unless the Company shall have first complied with this Section 7.14(b).

(i) The Company shall deliver to each Investor an irrevocable written notice (the "Offer Notice") of any proposed or intended issuance or sale or exchange (the "Offer") of the securities being offered (the "Offered Securities") in a Subsequent Placement, which Offer Notice shall (w) identify and describe the Offered Securities, (x) describe the price and other terms upon which they are to be issued, sold or exchanged, and the number or amount of the Offered Securities to be issued, sold or exchanged, (y) identify the persons or entities (if known) to which or with which the Offered Securities are to be offered, issued, sold or exchanged and (z) offer to issue and sell to or exchange with such Investors at least thirty percent (30%) of the Offered Securities, allocated among such Investors (a) based on such Investor's pro rata portion of the number of shares of Common Stock purchased hereunder (the "Basic Amount"), and (b) with respect to each Investor that elects to purchase its Basic Amount, any additional portion of the Offered Securities attributable to the Basic Amounts of other Investors as such Investor shall indicate it will purchase or acquire should the other Investors subscribe for less than their Basic Amounts (the "Undersubscription Amount"), which process shall be repeated until the Investors shall have an opportunity to subscribe for any remaining Undersubscription Amount.

(ii) To accept an Offer, in whole or in part, such Investor must deliver a written notice to the Company prior to the end of the third (3rd) Business Day after such Investor's receipt of the Offer Notice (the "Offer Period"), setting forth the portion of such Investor's Basic Amount that such Investor elects to purchase and, if such Investor shall elect to purchase all of its Basic Amount, the Undersubscription Amount, if any, that such Investor elects to purchase (in either case, the "Notice of Acceptance"). If the Basic Amounts subscribed for by all Investors are less than the total of all of the Basic Amounts, then each Investor who has set forth an Undersubscription Amount in its Notice of Acceptance shall be entitled to purchase, in addition to the Basic Amounts subscribed for, the Undersubscription Amount it has subscribed for; provided, however, that if the Undersubscription Amounts subscribed for exceed the difference between the total of all the Basic Amounts and the Basic Amounts subscribed for (the "Available Undersubscription Amount"), each Investor who has subscribed for any Undersubscription Amount shall be entitled to purchase only that portion of the Available Undersubscription Amount as the Basic Amount of such Investor bears to the total Basic Amounts of all Investors that have subscribed for Undersubscription Amounts, subject to rounding by the Company to the extent its deems reasonably necessary. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Company desires to modify or amend the terms and conditions of the Offer prior to the expiration of the Offer Period, the Company may deliver to the Investors a new Offer Notice and the Offer Period shall expire on the third (3rd) Business Day after such Investor's receipt of such new Offer Notice.

(iii) The Company shall have twenty (20) Business Days from the expiration of the Offer Period above to offer, issue, sell or exchange all or any part of such Offered Securities as to which a Notice of Acceptance has not been given by the Investors (the "Refused Securities") pursuant to a definitive agreement (the "Subsequent Placement Agreement") but only to the offerees described in the Offer Notice (if so described therein) and only upon terms and conditions (including, without limitation, unit prices and interest rates) that are not more favorable to the acquiring Person or Persons or less favorable to the Company than those set forth in the Offer Notice and (ii) to publicly announce (a) the execution of such Subsequent Placement Agreement, and (b) either (x) the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such Subsequent Placement Agreement or (y) the termination of such Subsequent Placement Agreement, which shall be filed with the SEC on a Current Report on Form 8-K with such Subsequent Placement Agreement and any documents contemplated therein filed as exhibits thereto.

(iv) In the event the Company shall propose to sell less than all the Refused Securities (any such sale to be in the manner and on the terms specified in Section 7.14(b)(iii) above), then each Investor may, at its sole option and in its sole discretion, reduce the number or amount of the Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance to an amount that shall be not less than the number or amount of the Offered Securities that such Investor elected to purchase pursuant to Section 7.14(b)(ii) above multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which shall be the number or amount of Offered Securities the Company actually proposes to issue, sell or exchange (including Offered Securities to be issued or sold to Investors pursuant to Section 7.14(b)(iii) above prior to such reduction) and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the original amount of the Offered Securities. In the event that any Investor so elects to reduce the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance, the Company may not issue, sell or exchange more than the reduced number or amount of the Offered Securities unless and until such securities have again been offered to the Investors in accordance with Section 7.14(b)(i) above.

(v) Upon the closing of the issuance, sale or exchange of all or less than all of the Refused Securities, the Investors shall acquire from the Company, and the Company shall issue to the Investors, the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in the Notices of Acceptance, as reduced pursuant to Section 7.14(b)(iv) above if the Investors have so elected, upon the terms and conditions specified in the Offer. The purchase by the Investors of any Offered Securities is subject in all cases to the preparation, execution and delivery by the Company and the Investors of a purchase agreement relating to such Offered Securities reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Investors and their respective counsel.

(vi) Any Offered Securities not acquired by the Investors or other persons in accordance with Section 7.14(b)(iii) above may not be issued, sold or exchanged until they are again offered to the Investors under the procedures specified in this Agreement.

(vii) The Company and the Investors agree that if any Investor elects to participate in the Offer, (x) neither the Subsequent Placement Agreement with respect to such Offer nor any other transaction documents related thereto (collectively, the "Subsequent Placement Documents") shall include any term or provisions whereby any Investor shall be required to agree to any restrictions in trading as to any securities of the Company owned by such Investor prior to such Subsequent Placement, and (y) any registration rights set forth in such Subsequent Placement Documents shall be similar in all material respects to the registration rights contained in the Registration Rights Agreement.

(viii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7.14 and unless otherwise agreed to by the Investors, the Company shall either confirm in writing to the Investors that the transaction with respect to the Subsequent Placement has been abandoned or shall publicly disclose its intention to issue the Offered Securities, in either case in such a manner such that the Investors will not be in possession of material non-public information, by the tenth (10th) Business Day following delivery of the Offer Notice. If by the tenth (10th) Business Day following delivery of the Offer Notice no public disclosure regarding a transaction with respect to the Offered Securities has been made, and no notice regarding the abandonment of such transaction has been received by the Investors, such transaction shall be deemed to have been abandoned and the Investors shall not be deemed to be in possession of any material, non-public information with respect to the Company. Should the Company decide to pursue such transaction with respect to the Offered Securities, the Company shall provide each Investor with another Offer Notice and each Investor will again have the right of participation set forth in this Section 7.14. The Company shall not be permitted to deliver more than one such Offer Notice to the Investors in any 60 day period.

The restrictions contained in this Section 7.14(b) shall not apply in connection with the issuance of any Excluded Securities.

7.15 Transfer Agent Instructions. The Company shall issue irrevocable instructions to its transfer agent, and any subsequent transfer agent, in the form of Exhibit C attached hereto (the "Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions") to issue certificates or credit shares to the applicable balance accounts at DTC, registered in the name of each Investor or its respective nominee(s), for the Warrant Shares issued at the Closing or pursuant to the terms of the Warrants in such amounts as specified from time to time by each Investor to the Company upon exercise of the Warrants. The Company warrants that no instruction other than the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions referred to in this Section 5(b), and stop transfer instructions to give effect to Section 5.7 hereof, will be given by the Company to its transfer agent, and that the Securities shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of the Company as and to the extent provided in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, and to the extent permitted by law. If an Investor effects a sale, assignment or transfer of the Securities in accordance with Section 5.7, the Company shall permit the transfer and shall promptly instruct its transfer agent to issue one or more certificates or credit shares to the applicable balance accounts at DTC in such name and in such denominations as specified by such Investor to effect such sale, transfer or assignment. In the event that such sale, assignment or transfer involves the Warrant Shares sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to an effective registration statement or pursuant to Rule 144, the transfer agent shall issue such Securities to the Investor, assignee or transferee, as the case may be, without any restrictive legend. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to an Investor. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Section 7.15 will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this Section 7.15, that an Investor shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an order and/or injunction restraining any breach and requiring immediate issuance and transfer, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

8. Survival and Indemnification.

8.1 Survival. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

8.2 Indemnification.

The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Investor and its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, trustees, members, managers, employees and agents, and their respective successors and assigns (each, an “Indemnitee” and collectively, the “Indemnitees”), from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorney fees and disbursements and other expenses incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim or proceeding, pending or threatened and the costs of enforcement thereof) to which such Person may become subject as a result of (a) any breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by or to be performed on the part of the Company under the Transaction Documents or (b) any cause of action, suit or claim brought or made against any Indemnitee by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf of the Company) and arising out of or resulting from (i) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of the issuance of the Securities, (iii) any disclosure made by such Investor pursuant to Section 7.13, or (iv) the status of such Investor or holder of the Securities as an investor in the Company pursuant to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, and will reimburse any such Person for all such amounts as they are incurred by such Person.

8.3 Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Any person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification and (ii) permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided that any person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such person unless (a) the indemnifying party has agreed to pay such fees or expenses, or (b) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such person or (c) in the reasonable judgment of any such person, based upon written advice of its counsel, a conflict of interest exists between such person and the indemnifying party with respect to such claims (in which case, if the person notifies the indemnifying party in writing that such person elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such claim on behalf of such person); and provided, further, that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that such failure to give notice shall materially adversely affect the indemnifying party in the defense of any such claim or litigation. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for fees or expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all such indemnified parties. No indemnifying party will, except with the consent of the indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation.

9. Miscellaneous.

9.1 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement may not be assigned by a party hereto without the prior written consent of the Company or the Investors, as applicable, provided, however, that an Investor may assign its rights and delegate its duties hereunder in whole or in part to an Affiliate or to a third party acquiring some or all of its Securities in a transaction complying with applicable securities laws without the prior written consent of the Company or the other Investors. The provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective permitted successors and assigns of the parties. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Company is a party to a merger, consolidation, share exchange or similar business combination transaction in which the Common Stock is converted into the equity securities of another Person, from and after the effective time of such transaction, such Person shall, by virtue of such transaction, be deemed to have assumed the obligations of the Company hereunder, the term “Company” shall be deemed to refer to such Person and the term “Shares” shall be deemed to refer to the securities received by the Investors in connection with such transaction. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto or their respective successors and assigns any rights, remedies, obligations, or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided in this Agreement.

9.2 Counterparts; Faxes. 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. This Agreement may also be executed via facsimile, which shall be deemed an original.

9.5 Expenses. The parties hereto shall pay their own costs and expenses in connection herewith, except that the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of (i) Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx LLP not to exceed $35,000 and (ii) Xxxxxxx Xxxx & Xxxxx LLP not to exceed $10,000, regardless of whether the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated; it being understood that Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx LLP has only rendered legal advice to the Agent and not to the Company or any Investor in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and that each of the Company and each Investor has relied for such matters on the advice of its own respective counsel. Such expenses shall be paid upon demand. The Company shall reimburse the Investors upon demand for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Investors, including without limitation reimbursement of attorneys’ fees and disbursements, in connection with any amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents. In the event that legal proceedings are commenced by any party to this Agreement against another party to this Agreement in connection with this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, the party or parties which do not prevail in such proceedings shall severally, but not jointly, pay their pro rata share of the reasonable attorneys’ fees and other reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the prevailing party in such proceedings.

9.6 Amendments and Waivers. Any term of this Agreement may be amended and the observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only with the written consent of the Company and the Investors. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this paragraph shall be binding upon each holder of any Securities purchased under this Agreement at the time outstanding, each future holder of all such Securities, and the Company.

9.7 Disclosure of Transactions and Other Material Information. On or before 5:30 p.m., New York City time, on the date that this Agreement has been executed, the Company shall issue a press release reasonably acceptable to the Investors and, on or prior to 8:00 a.m., New York City time, on November 28, 2014, file a Current Report on Form 8-K describing the terms of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents in the form required by the 1934 Act and attaching the material Transaction Documents (including, without limitation, this Agreement (and all schedules and exhibits to this Agreement), the Form of Warrant and the Registration Rights Agreement, as exhibits to such filing (including all attachments), the "8-K Filing"). From and after the public release of the Press Release, no Investor shall be in possession of any material, nonpublic information received from the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, directors, affiliates, employees or agents, that is not disclosed in the Press Release. In addition, effective upon the public release of the Press Release, the Company acknowledges and agrees that any and all confidentiality or similar obligations under any agreement, whether written or oral, between the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, directors, affiliates, employees or agents, on the one hand, and any of the Investors or any of their affiliates, on the other hand, shall terminate. The Company shall not, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries and its and each of their respective officers, directors, affiliates, employees and agents, not to, provide any Investor with any material, nonpublic information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from and after the date hereof without the express prior written consent of such Investor. If an Investor has, or believes it has, received any such material, nonpublic information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, directors, affiliates, employees or agents, it may provide the Company with written notice thereof. The Company shall, within two (2) Trading Days of receipt of such notice, make public disclosure of such material, nonpublic information. In the event of a breach of the foregoing covenant by the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, or any of its or their respective officers, directors, affiliates, employees and agents, in addition to any other remedy provided herein or in the Transaction Documents, an Investor shall have the right to make a public disclosure, in the form of a press release, public advertisement or otherwise, of such material, nonpublic information without the prior approval by the Company, its Subsidiaries, or any of its or their respective officers, directors, affiliates, employees or agents. No Investor shall have any liability to the Company, its Subsidiaries, or any of its or their respective officers, directors, affiliates, employees, shareholders or agents for any such disclosure. To the extent that the Company delivers any material, non-public information to an Investor without such Investor's consent, the Company hereby covenants and agrees that such Investor shall not have any duty of confidentiality to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates or agents with respect to, or a duty not to trade on the basis of, such material, non-public information. Subject to the foregoing, neither the Company, its Subsidiaries nor any Investor shall issue any press releases or any other public statements with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, that the Company shall be entitled, without the prior approval of any Investor, to make any press release or other public disclosure with respect to such transactions (i) in substantial conformity with the 8-K Filing and contemporaneously therewith and (ii) as is required by applicable law and regulations (provided that in the case of clause (i) each Investor shall be consulted by the Company in connection with any such press release or other public disclosure prior to its release). Except for the Registration Statement required to be filed pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, without the prior written consent of any applicable Investor, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries or affiliates shall disclose the name of such Investor in any filing, announcement, release or otherwise.

9.8 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof but shall be interpreted as if it were written so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties hereby waive any provision of law which renders any provision hereof prohibited or unenforceable in any respect.

9.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including the Exhibits and the Disclosure Schedules, and the other Transaction Documents constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereof with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both oral and written, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

9.10 Further Assurances. The parties shall execute and deliver all such further instruments and documents and take all such other actions as may reasonably be required to carry out the transactions contemplated hereby and to evidence the fulfillment of the agreements herein contained.

9.11 Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York without regard to the choice of law principles thereof. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York located in New York County and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York for the purpose of any suit, action, proceeding or judgment relating to or arising out of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Service of process in connection with any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on each party hereto anywhere in the world by the same methods as are specified for the giving of notices under this Agreement. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of any such court in any such suit, action or proceeding and to the laying of venue in such court. Each party hereto irrevocably waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such courts and irrevocably waives any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO REQUEST A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT AND REPRESENTS THAT COUNSEL HAS BEEN CONSULTED SPECIFICALLY AS TO THIS WAIVER.

9.12 Independent Nature of Investors' Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Investor under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Investor, and no Investor shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Investor under any Transaction Document. The decision of each Investor to purchase Securities pursuant to the Transaction Documents has been made by such Investor independently of any other Investor. Nothing contained herein or in any Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Investor pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Each Investor acknowledges that no other Investor has acted as agent for such Investor in connection with making its investment hereunder and that no Investor will be acting as agent of such Investor in connection with monitoring its investment in the Securities or enforcing its rights under the Transaction Documents. Each Investor shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Investor to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. The Company acknowledges that each of the Investors has been provided with the same Transaction Documents for the purpose of closing a transaction with multiple Investors and not because it was required or requested to do so by any Investor.

This letter shall serve as our irrevocable authorization and direction to you (provided that you are the transfer agent of the Company at such time) to issue or re-issue, as the case may be, (i) on the Closing Date of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement the Common Shares to each of the Holders as set forth on Exhibit I attached hereto, (ii) shares of Common Stock and (iii) shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (the "Warrant Shares") to or upon the order of a Holder from time to time upon delivery to you of a properly completed and duly executed Exercise Notice, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit II, which has been acknowledged by the Company as indicated by the signature of a duly authorized officer of the Company thereon.

You acknowledge and agree that so long as you have previously received (a) written confirmation from the Company's legal counsel that either (i) a registration statement covering resales of the Common Shares and the Warrant Shares has been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act") and such registration statement is not subject to a stop-order or other order that suspends the effectiveness of the registration statement (and you have not been so advised by counsel), or (ii) sales of the Common Shares and the Warrant Shares may be made in conformity with Rule 144 under the 1933 Act ("Rule 144"), and (b) if applicable, a copy of such registration statement, then within three (3) business days of your receipt of a notice of transfer or an Exercise Notice, you shall issue the certificates representing the Common Shares, and the Warrant Shares, as applicable, registered in the names of such transferees, and such certificates shall not bear any legend restricting transfer of the Common Shares and the Warrant Shares thereby and should not be subject to any stop-transfer restriction; provided, however, that if such Common Shares and Warrant Shares are not registered for resale under the 1933 Act or able to be sold under Rule 144, then the certificates for such Common Shares and/or Warrant Shares shall bear the following legend:

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, 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 OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, IN A GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR (II) UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR RULE 144A UNDER SAID ACT. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.

[We are][I am] counsel to Aethlon Medical, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "Company"), and have represented the Company in connection with that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of November ___, 2014 (the "Securities Purchase Agreement"), entered into by and among the Company and the buyers named therein (collectively, the "Holders") pursuant to which the Company issued to the Holders shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock") (the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, collectively, the "Common Shares") and warrants exercisable for shares of Common Stock (the "Warrants"). Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company also has entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Holders (the "Registration Rights Agreement") pursuant to which the Company agreed, among other things, to register the resale of the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), including the Common Shares issuable pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"). The description of the Registrable Securities are set forth on Schedule A hereto [Selling Shareholder Table]. In connection with the Company's obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, on ____________ ___, 2014, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-_____________) (the "Registration Statement") with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") relating to the Registrable Securities which names each of the Holders as a selling shareholder thereunder.

In connection with the foregoing, [we][I] advise you that a member of the SEC's staff has advised [us][me] by telephone that the SEC has entered an order declaring the Registration Statement effective under the 1933 Act at [ENTER TIME OF EFFECTIVENESS] on [ENTER DATE OF EFFECTIVENESS]. [We][I] have no knowledge, subsequent to such telephonic conversation with the SEC's staff, that any stop order suspending its effectiveness has been issued or that any proceedings for that purpose are pending before, or threatened by, the SEC. Based on the foregoing, the Registrable Securities set forth on Schedule A hereto are available for resale under the 1933 Act pursuant to the Registration Statement.

This letter, unless and until subsequently revoked or modified orally by Xxxxxxxx X. Post or Xxx X. Xxxxx, or in writing from any member of this firm (which writing may include email correspondence), shall serve as our standing instruction to you that the Registrable Securities set forth on Schedule A hereto are freely transferable by the Holders pursuant to the Registration Statement. You need not require further letters from us to effect any future legend-free issuance or reissuance of Registrable Securities to the Holders as contemplated by the Company's Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions dated December [●], 2014.

Very truly yours,

[ISSUER'S COUNSEL]
