WHEREAS, the Company and the Holder desire to amend the Warrants as set forth in this Amendment.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the Company and the Holder hereby agree as follows:
1.Meeting. As soon as practicable following the date of this Amendment, and no event later than the next annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Company, the Company shall file with the Securities and Exchange Commission one or more definitive proxy statements, at the expense of the Company, for one or more stockholder meetings, soliciting stockholder approvals at such meetings for the Authorized Common Stock Increase Proposal. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain all components of the Stockholder Approval. Upon receipt of the Stockholder Approval with respect to the Authorized Common Stock Increase Proposal, the Company shall cause the amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended, approved thereby to be filed with the Nevada Secretary of State on the date of such Stockholder Approval or as soon as practicable thereafter. In addition to the terms defined elsewhere in this Amendment, the following terms have the meanings indicated in this Section 1:
“Authorized Common Stock Increase Proposal” means a proposal presented at a meeting of stockholders whereby the stockholders of the Company are being asked to approve as may be required to effect an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock to 250,000,000 shares.

2.Amendment to “Exercise Price”. Section 2(b) of the Warrants is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
“b) Exercise Price.

The Exercise Price per share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be reduced to the Nasdaq Minimum Price (as defined by the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC) on June 6, 2024 if the Minimum Price is lower than the Exercise Price in effect on June 6, 2024, subject to adjustment hereunder.
3.Voting Agreement.

The Holder hereby agrees not to grant any proxy with respect to such shares of Common Stock or to enter into or agree to be bound by any voting trust or agreement or other arrangement of any kind that is inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement.
