(iv) Acknowledgement. Each Participant 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.

Each Participant acknowledges that the delivery of the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions and any removal of any legends from certificates representing the Shares as set forth in this Section 4(a) is predicated on the Company’s reliance upon the Participant’s acknowledgement in this Section 4(a).
(b) Acknowledgment of Dilution. The Company acknowledges that the issuance of the Securities may result in dilution of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. The Company specifically acknowledges that its obligation to issue the Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrants, in accordance with its terms, is binding upon the Company and enforceable regardless of the dilution such issuance may have on the ownership interest of other stockholders of the Company or parties entitled to receive equity of the Company.
(c) Furnishing of Information. In order to enable the Participants to sell the Securities under Rule 144 of the Securities Act, for a period of one year from the Closing Date, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to the Exchange Act. During such one year period, if the Company is not required to file reports pursuant to such laws, it will prepare and furnish to the Participants and make publicly available in accordance with Rule 144(c) such information as is required for the Participants to sell the Shares under Rule 144.

From and after the issuance of the Form 8-K, no Participant shall be in possession of any material, non-public information received from the Company or any of its respective officers, directors, employees or agents, that is not disclosed in the Form 8-K unless a Participant shall have executed a written agreement regarding the confidentiality and use of such information. Each Participant, severally and not jointly with the other Participants, covenants that until such time as the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed by the Company as described in this Section 4(f) such Participant will maintain the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in connection with such transactions (including the existence and terms of such transactions).

(g) Indemnification.
(i) Indemnification of the Participants. Subject to this Section 4(h), the Company will indemnify and hold each Participant and its directors, officers, shareholders, members, partners, employees and agents (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 such Participant (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 or employees (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, a “Participant Party”) harmless from any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, contingencies, damages, costs and expenses, including all judgments, amounts paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of investigation that any such Participant Party may suffer or incur, as a result of or relating to third party claims against such Participant relating to any breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Company in this Subscription, provided that such a claim for indemnification relating to any breach of any of the representations or warranties made by the Company in this Agreement is made within one (1) year from the Closing. The Company will not be liable to any Participant Party under this Agreement to the extent, but only to the extent that a loss, claim, damage or liability is attributable to any Participant Party’s breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by such Participant Party in this Agreement or in the other Subscription or such Participant Party’s bad faith, fraud or willful misconduct.

Participant’s Initials | 18 | Generation Hemp, Inc. |
(ii) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Promptly after receipt by any Person (the “Indemnified Person”) of notice of any demand, claim or circumstances which would or might give rise to a claim or the commencement of any action, proceeding or investigation in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 4(h)(i), such Indemnified Person shall promptly notify the Company in writing and the Company shall have the right to assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person and the assumption of the payment of all fees and expenses; provided, however, that the failure of any Indemnified Person so to notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that the Company is actually and materially prejudiced by such failure to notify. 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 and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel; (ii) the Company 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 and counsel to the Company, representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them, in which case the Company shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of no more than one such separate counsel. The Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, the Company shall not effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is a party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from all liability arising out of such Proceeding.
(h) Dispositions and Confidentiality After The Date Hereof. Each Participant shall not, and shall cause its Trading Affiliates not to, prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement: (a) sell, offer to sell, solicit offers to buy, dispose of, loan, pledge or grant any right with respect to (collectively, a “Disposition”) the Securities; or (b) engage in any hedging or other transaction which is designed or could reasonably be expected to lead to or result in a Disposition of the Securities by such Participant or an affiliate of the Participant, except, in each case, for Dispositions 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 and federal securities laws. In addition, the Participant agrees that for so long as it owns any Common Stock, it will not enter into any Short Sale (as such term is defined in Rule 200 of Regulation SHO) of Shares executed at a time when the Participant has no equivalent offsetting long position in the Common Stock. For purposes of determining whether the Participant has an equivalent offsetting long position in the Common Stock, shares that the Participant is entitled to receive within sixty (60) days (whether pursuant to contract or upon conversion or exercise of convertible securities) will be included as if held long by the Participant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Participant that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Participant’s assets and the portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Participant’s assets, the representation set forth above shall apply only with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that have knowledge about the financing transaction contemplated by this Agreement. Each Participant understands and acknowledges, severally and not jointly with any other Participant, that the SEC currently takes the position that covering a short position established prior to effectiveness of a resale registration statement with shares included in such registration statement would be a violation of Section 5 of the Securities Act, as set forth in Division of Corporation Financing Compliance and Disclosure Interpretation 239.10 regarding short selling.
5. Adjustment in Share 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 Date, each reference in the Subscription to a number of shares or price per share shall be deemed to be amended to appropriately account for such event.

Attn: _____________
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Reference is made to those certain Subscription Agreements, dated as of _____________, 2020 (collectively, the “Agreement”), by and among Generation Hemp, Inc., a Colorado corporation (the “Company”), and the purchasers named on the signature pages thereto (collectively, and including permitted transferees, the “Holders”), pursuant to which the Company is issuing to the Holders units (the “Units”) comprised of (i) one share (the “Shares”) of its common stock, (the “Common Stock”) and (ii) warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.40 per share (the “Warrant Shares”).
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 and the conditions set forth in this letter are satisfied), subject to any stop transfer instructions that we may issue to you from time to time, if any, to (i) issue, promptly following the date hereof, certificates representing the Shares (or the Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrants) bearing the legend set forth herein below, in the names of the Holders and the number of Shares (or Warrant Shares, if applicable) as set forth in the attachments delivered herewith, and to deliver such certificates within six (6) business days after the date hereof to the address for each such Holder as set forth on such attachments delivered herewith, and (ii) issue certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon transfer or resale of the Shares (or Warrant Shares, if applicable), which certificates shall or shall not bear the legend set forth herein below as described below.
You acknowledge and agree that so long as you have received (a) written confirmation from the Company’s legal counsel that a registration statement covering resales of the Shares (or Warrant Shares, if applicable) has been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), a copy of such registration statement and any other documents reasonably requested by you from the applicable Holder (and provided that you have not received written instruction from the Company or its legal counsel that such registration statement has been suspended or is no longer effective), (b) written confirmation from the Company’s legal counsel that the Shares (or Warrant Shares, if applicable) are eligible for sale in conformity with Rule 144 under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”) and customary documentation from a Holder and its broker with respect to a sale pursuant to Rule 144, or (c) written confirmation from the Company’s legal counsel that the Shares (or Warrant Shares, if applicable) are eligible for sale without the requirement that the Company be in compliance with the current public information requirements of Rule 144 and without other restriction in conformity with Rule 144, then, unless otherwise required by law, within three (3) business days of your receipt of certificate of Common Stock and documentation required pursuant to clause (a) or (b) above, as applicable, or a request from a Holder for the issuance of an unlegended certificate in the event that you have received the written confirmation set forth in clause (c) above, you shall issue the certificates representing the Shares (or Warrant Shares, if applicable) registered in the names of the purchaser of such Shares or the Holder, as the case may be, and such certificates shall not bear any legend restricting transfer of the Shares (or Warrant Shares, if applicable) thereby and should not be subject to any stop-transfer restriction.
All certificates representing the Shares (or Warrant Shares, if applicable) issued pursuant to the instruction set forth in clause (i) of the second paragraph of this letter shall bear the following legend (and, solely to the extent instructed to you by the Company or its legal counsel, a customary “affiliates” legend), and, in the event that you have not received the documentation required pursuant to clause (a), (b) or (c) of the immediately preceding paragraph, then the certificates representing any shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the instruction set forth in clause (ii) of the second paragraph of this letter shall bear the following legend:
THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED OR HYPOTHECATED UNLESS THERE IS AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SUCH ACT COVERING SUCH SECURITIES, THE TRANSFER IS MADE IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 144 PROMULGATED UNDER SUCH ACT OR THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL FOR THE HOLDER OF THESE SECURITIES WHICH IS REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY, STATING THAT SUCH SALE, TRANSFER, ASSIGNMENT OR HYPOTHECATION IS EXEMPT FROM THE REGISTRATION AND PROSPECTUS DELIVERY REQUIREMENTS OF SUCH ACT.
Please be advised that the Holders are relying upon this letter as an inducement to enter into the Agreement and, accordingly, each Holder is a third party beneficiary to these instructions.
Please execute this letter in the space indicated to acknowledge your agreement to act in accordance with these instructions.
