1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On
May 13, 2026, Oklo Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an equity distribution agreement (the “Sales Agreement”)
with Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, BofA Securities, Inc., Citigroup Global Markets Inc., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Morgan Stanley &
Co. LLC, Barclays Capital Inc., Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., Guggenheim Securities, LLC, Canaccord Genuity LLC and William Blair &
Company, L.L.C. under which the Company may offer and sell, from time to time in its sole discretion, shares of the Company’s Class
A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), with aggregate gross sales proceeds of up to $1,000,000,000
through an “at the market” equity offering program under which Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, BofA Securities, Inc., Citigroup
Global Markets Inc., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, Barclays Capital Inc., Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., Guggenheim
Securities, LLC, Canaccord Genuity LLC and William Blair & Company, L.L.C. will act as the agents (each, a “Sales Agent”
and collectively, the “Sales Agents”).
Sales,
if any, of Common Stock under the Sales Agreement may be made in ordinary brokers’ transactions, to or through a market maker, on
or through the New York Stock Exchange or any other market venue where the securities may be traded, in the over-the-counter market, in
privately negotiated transactions, in block trades, in transactions that are deemed to be “at the market offerings” as defined
in Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or through a combination of any such methods of sale. The Sales Agents may also sell Common
Stock by any other method permitted by law.
The
securities may be sold at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated
prices. The Company will designate the maximum amount of Common Stock to be sold through the Sales Agents on a daily basis or otherwise
as the Company and the Sales Agents agree and the minimum price per share at which such Common Stock may be sold. Subject to the terms
and conditions of the Sales Agreement, the Sales Agents will use their reasonable efforts consistent with their normal sales and trading
practices to sell on the Company’s behalf all of the designated shares of Common Stock. The Company may instruct the Sales Agents
not to sell any Common Stock if the sales cannot be effected at or above the price designated by the Company in any such instruction.
The Company or any of the Sales Agents may suspend the offering of Common Stock by notifying the other party.
The
Sales Agreement provides that the Company will pay the Sales Agents a commission of up to 1.5% of the gross sales price per share of Common
Stock sold through such Sales Agents under the Sales Agreement, and the Company will reimburse the Sales Agents for certain expenses incurred
in connection with their services under the Sales Agreement. The offering of Common Stock pursuant to the Sales Agreement will terminate
upon the termination of the Sales Agreement by the Company or by the Sales Agents, as provided therein.
The
Sales Agreement contains representations and warranties and covenants that are customary for transactions of this type. In addition, the
Company has agreed to indemnify the Sales Agents against certain liabilities on customary terms, subject to limitations on such arrangements
imposed by applicable law and regulation. In the ordinary course of its business, the Sales Agents and their affiliates have engaged in,
and may in the future engage in, investment banking and other commercial dealings in the ordinary course of business with the Company
and its affiliates. The Sales Agents have received, or may in the future receive, customary fees and commissions for these transactions.
The
shares will be issued pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-291157) as subsequently amended
by that Amendment No. 1 to Form S-3, which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on
December 4, 2025 (the “Shelf Registration Statement”). The Company intends to file a prospectus supplement, dated May 13,
2026, with the SEC in connection with the offer and sale of the shares pursuant to the Sales Agreement.
The
foregoing description of the Sales Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full
text of the Sales Agreement. A copy of the Sales Agreement is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 1.1 and is incorporated
herein by reference.

A
copy of the legal opinion of Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP, relating to the validity of the shares of Common Stock that may be
sold pursuant to the Sales Agreement, is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 5.1.
This
Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of any offer to buy the securities discussed herein,
nor shall there be any offer, solicitation or sale of the securities in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful
prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state.
Item
1.02. Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.
On
May 13, 2026, the Company delivered written notice of its intention to terminate the Equity Distribution Agreement, dated as of December
4, 2025 (the “Prior Sales Agreement”), by and among the Company and each of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, BofA Securities,

termination of the Prior Sales Agreement was effective as of the close of business on May 13, 2026. As previously reported, pursuant
to the terms of the Prior Sales Agreement and the related prospectus supplement filed with the SEC on December 4, 2025, the Company could

Sales Agents. The Company is not subject to any termination penalties related to the termination of the Prior Sales Agreement. The Company

Ladies and Gentlemen:
Oklo
Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) confirms its agreement (this “Agreement”) with Goldman
Sachs & Co. LLC, BofA Securities, Inc., Citigroup Global Markets Inc., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Morgan Stanley &
Co. LLC, Barclays Capital Inc., Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., Guggenheim Securities, LLC, Canaccord Genuity LLC and William Blair &
Company, L.L.C. (each, a “Manager” and, collectively, the “Managers”) as follows:
1. Description
of Shares. The Company proposes to issue and sell through or to the Managers, as sales agents and/or principals, shares of the Company’s
Class A Common Stock, $0.0001 par value (the “Common Stock”) having an aggregate offering price of up to $1,000,000,000
(the “Shares”), from time to time during the term of this Agreement and on the terms set forth in Section 3 of
this Agreement. The Company hereby appoints the Managers as exclusive agents of the Company for the purpose of making offers and sales
of the Shares. The Company agrees that whenever it determines to sell the Shares directly to a Manager as principal, it will enter into
a separate agreement (each, a “Terms Agreement”) in substantially the form of Annex I hereto, relating to such sale
in accordance with Section 3 of this Agreement. Certain terms used herein are defined in Section 18 hereof.
2. Representations
and Warranties. The Company represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Managers at the Execution Time and on each such time
the following representations and warranties are repeated or deemed to be made pursuant to this Agreement, as set forth below.
(a) Form S-3.
The Company meets the requirements for use of Form S-3 under the Act and has filed with the Commission a shelf registration
statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-291157), including a related Base Prospectus, for registration under the Act of the offering
and sale of the Shares and other securities of the Company. Such Registration Statement, including any amendments thereto filed prior
to any such time this representation is repeated or deemed to be made, became effective on December 4, 2025 and no stop order suspending
the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued under the Act and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted
or are pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, are contemplated or threatened by the Commission, and any request on the part of
the Commission for additional or supplemental information has been complied with. The Company shall file with the Commission the Prospectus
Supplement relating to the Shares in accordance with Rule 424(b) promptly after the Execution Time (but in any event in the
time period prescribed thereby). The Prospectus will contain all information required by the Act and the rules thereunder, and,
except to the extent the Managers shall agree in writing to a modification, shall be in all substantive respects in the form furnished
to the Managers prior to the Execution Time or prior to any such time this representation is repeated or deemed to be made. The Registration
Statement, at the Execution Time, each such time this representation is repeated or deemed to be made, and at all times during which
a prospectus is required by the Act to be delivered (whether physically or through compliance with Rule 172 or any similar rule)
in connection with any offer or sale of Shares, meets the requirements set forth in Rule 415(a)(1)(x). Any reference herein to the
Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement, any Interim Prospectus Supplement or the Prospectus shall be
deemed to refer to and include the documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 which were filed
under the Exchange Act on or before the Effective Date of the Registration Statement or the issue date of the Base Prospectus, the Prospectus
Supplement, any Interim Prospectus Supplement or the Prospectus, as the case may be; and any reference herein to the terms “amend,”
“amendment” or “supplement” with respect to the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement,
any Interim Prospectus Supplement or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the filing of any document under the Exchange
Act after the Effective Date of the Registration Statement or the issue date of the Base Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement, any Interim
Prospectus Supplement or the Prospectus, as the case may be, deemed to be incorporated therein by reference. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the representations and warranties in this subsection shall not apply to statements in or omissions from the Registration Statement or
any post-effective amendment or the Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto, made in reliance upon and in conformity with
information furnished to the Company in writing by the Managers relating to the Managers expressly for use therein. The Company may file
one or more additional registration statements from time to time that will contain a base prospectus and related prospectus or prospectus
supplement, if applicable, with respect to the Shares; provided, however, that Managers are provided with a reasonable opportunity to
review any such registration statement or prospectus.
2
(b) Successor
Registration Statement. To the extent that the Registration Statement is not available for the sales of the Shares as contemplated
by this Agreement, the Company shall file a new registration statement with respect to any additional Common Stock necessary to complete
such sales of the Shares and shall cause such registration statement to become effective as promptly as practicable. After the effectiveness
of any such registration statement, all references to “Registration Statement” included in this Agreement shall be deemed
to include such new registration statement, including all documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3,
and all references to “Base Prospectus” included in this Agreement shall be deemed to include the final form of prospectus,
including all documents incorporated therein by reference, included in any such registration statement at the time such registration
statement became effective.
(c) No
Material Misstatements or Omissions in the Registration Statement. On each Effective Date, at each deemed effective date with respect
to the Managers pursuant to Rule 430B(f)(2) under the Act, at each Applicable Time, at each Settlement Date, at each Time of
Delivery and at all times during which a prospectus is required by the Act to be delivered (whether physically or through compliance
with Rule 172 or any similar rule) in connection with any offer or sale of Shares, the Registration Statement complied and will
comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Act and the rules thereunder and did not and will not contain
any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make
the statements therein not misleading; and on the date of any filing pursuant to Rule 424(b), at each Applicable Time, on each Settlement
Date, at each Time of Delivery and at all times during which a prospectus is required by the Act to be delivered (whether physically
or through compliance with Rule 172 or any similar rule) in connection with any offer or sale of Shares, the Prospectus (together
with any supplement thereto) complied and will comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Act and the rules thereunder
and did not and will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make
the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however,
that the Company makes no representations or warranties as to the information contained in or omitted from the Registration Statement
or the Prospectus (or any supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company
by the Managers specifically for inclusion in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus (or any supplement thereto).
(d) Disclosure
Package. At each Applicable Time, at each Settlement Date and each Time of Delivery, the Disclosure Package does not contain any
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light
of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The preceding sentence does not apply to statements in or omissions

for use therein.

governmental action, order or decree or (ii) entered into any transaction or agreement (whether or not in the ordinary course of
business) that is material to the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole or incurred any liability or obligation, direct or contingent,
that is material to the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, in each case otherwise than as set forth or contemplated in the
Prospectus; and, since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, there
has not been (x) any change in the capital stock (other than as a result of (i) the exercise, if any, of stock options or the

and any real property and buildings held under lease by the Company and its subsidiaries are held by them under valid, subsisting and
enforceable leases with such exceptions as are not material and do not materially interfere with the use made and proposed to be made

in connection with this Agreement or any Terms Agreement shall be deemed a representation and warranty by the Company or such subsidiary
of the Company, as applicable, to each Manager as to the matters set forth therein.
The
Company acknowledges that the Managers and, for purposes of the opinions to be delivered pursuant to Section 4 hereof, counsel for
the Company and counsel for the Managers, will rely upon the accuracy and truthfulness of the foregoing representations and hereby consents

3. Sale
and Delivery of Shares. On the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements herein contained, but subject to the terms
and conditions herein set forth, the Company and the Managers agree that the Company may from time to time seek to sell Shares through
a Designated Manager, acting as sales agent, or directly to any of the Managers acting as principal, as follows:
(a) The
Company may submit to a Designated Manager its orders (including any price, time or size limits or other customary parameters or conditions)
to sell Shares on any Trading Day (as defined herein) in a form and manner as mutually agreed to by the Company and such Designated Manager.
As used herein, “Trading Day” shall mean any trading day on the NYSE.
(b) Subject
to the terms and conditions hereof, each Manager, at any time it is a Designated Manager, shall use its reasonable efforts to execute
any Company order submitted to it hereunder to sell Shares and with respect to which such Designated Manager has agreed to act as sales
agent. The Company acknowledges and agrees that (i) there can be no assurance that a Designated Manager will be successful in selling
the Shares, (ii) a Designated Manager will incur no liability or obligation to the Company or any other person or entity if it does
not sell Shares for any reason other than a failure by a Designated Manager to use its reasonable efforts consistent with its normal
trading and sales practices and applicable law and regulations to sell such Shares as required under this Agreement and (iii) no
Manager shall be under any obligation to purchase Shares on a principal basis pursuant to this Agreement, except as otherwise specifically
agreed by Manager and the Company. The Designated Manager may make sales pursuant to each order by any method permitted by law, including
without limitation (i) by means of ordinary brokers’ transactions (whether or not solicited), (ii) to or through a market
maker, (iii) directly on or through any national securities exchange or facility thereof, a trading facility of a national securities
association, an alternative trading system, or any other market venue, (iv) in the over-the-counter market, (v) in privately
negotiated transactions, or (vi) through a combination of any such methods.
(c) The
Company shall not authorize the issuance and sale of, and a Designated Manager shall not sell as sales agent, any Share at a price lower
than the minimum price therefor designated from time to time by the Company and notified to a Designated Manager in writing. In addition,
the Company or a Designated Manager may upon notice to the other party hereto by telephone (confirmed promptly by email or facsimile),
suspend an offering of the Shares with respect to which that Designated Manager is acting as sales agent; provided, however,
that such suspension or termination shall not affect or impair the parties’ respective obligations with respect to the Shares sold
hereunder prior to the giving of such notice.
14
(d) The
compensation to a Designated Manager for sales of the Shares with respect to which such Designated Manager acts as sales agent hereunder
shall be up to 1.5% of the gross offering proceeds of the Shares sold pursuant to this Agreement as mutually agreed to in writing by
such Designated Manager and the Company. The foregoing rate of compensation shall not apply when a Manager, acting as principal, purchases
Shares from the Company pursuant to a Terms Agreement. Any compensation or commission due and payable to any Managers hereunder with
respect to any sale of Shares shall be paid by the Company to such Managers concurrently with the settlement for sales of the Shares
by deduction from the proceeds from sales of the Shares payable to the Company. The remaining proceeds, after further deduction for any
transaction fees imposed by any governmental or self-regulatory organization in respect of such sales shall constitute the net proceeds
to the Company for such Shares (the “Net Proceeds”).
(e) Settlement
for sales of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement will occur on the first Trading Day following the date on which such sales are made
(each such day, a “Settlement Date”). On each Settlement Date, the Shares sold through a Designated Manager for settlement
on such date shall be issued and delivered by the Company to such Designated Manager against payment of the Net Proceeds from the sale
of such Shares. Settlement for all such Shares shall be effected by free delivery of the Shares, in definitive form, by the Company or
its transfer agent to such Designated Manager’s or its designee’s account (provided such Designated Manager shall
have given the Company written notice of such designee prior to the Settlement Date) at The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit
and Withdrawal at Custodian System or by such other means of delivery as may be mutually agreed upon by the parties hereto, in return
for payments in same day funds delivered to the account designated by the Company. If the Company, or its transfer agent (if applicable)
shall default on its obligation to deliver the Shares on any Settlement Date, the Company shall (i) hold each applicable Designated
Manager harmless against any loss, claim, damage, or expense (including reasonable legal fees and expenses), as incurred, arising out
of or in connection with such default by the Company and (ii) pay each such Designated Manager any commission, discount or other
compensation to which it would otherwise be entitled absent such default.
(f) If
acting as sales agent hereunder, the Designated Manager shall provide written confirmation (which may be by facsimile or email) to the
Company following the close of trading on the NYSE each day in which the Shares are sold under this Agreement setting forth (i) the
amount of the Shares sold on such day and the gross offering proceeds received from such sale and (ii) the commission payable by
the Company to such Designated Manager with respect to such sales.
(g) At
each Applicable Time, Settlement Date, Representation Date (as defined in Section 4(k)) and Filing Date (as defined in Section 4(q)),
the Company shall be deemed to have affirmed each representation and warranty contained in this Agreement as if such representation and
warranty were made as of such date, modified as necessary to relate to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus as amended as of
such date. Any obligation of a Designated Manager to use its reasonable efforts to sell the Shares on behalf of the Company as sales
agent shall be subject to the continuing accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company herein (and the completion of
any diligence to verify such accuracy by such Designated Manager), to the performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder and
to the continuing satisfaction of the additional conditions specified in Section 6 of this Agreement.
15
(h) Subject
to such further limitations on offers and sales of Shares or delivery of instructions to offer and sell Shares as are set forth herein
and as may be mutually agreed upon by the Company and a Designated Manager, the Company shall not request the sale of any Shares that
would be sold, and no Designated Manager shall be obligated to sell, (i) during any period in which the Company’s insider
trading policy, as it exists on the date of this Agreement, would prohibit the purchase or sale of any Shares by any of its officers
or directors, (ii) any time during the period commencing on the tenth business day prior to the time Company shall issue a press
release containing, or shall otherwise publicly announce, its earnings, revenues or other results of operations (each, an “Earnings
Announcement”) through and including the time that is 24 hours after the time that the Company files (a “Filing Time”)
a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or an Annual Report on Form 10-K that includes consolidated financial statements as of and
for the same period or periods, as the case may be, covered by such Earnings Announcement, or (iii) during any other period in which
the Company is, or could be deemed to be, in possession of material non-public information.
(i) If
the Company wishes to issue and sell the Shares pursuant to this Agreement directly to any of the Managers acting as principal (each,
a “Placement”), it will notify the Manager or Managers of the proposed terms of such Placement. If such Manager or
Managers, acting as principal, wishes to accept such proposed terms (which a Manager may decline to do for any reason in its sole discretion)
or, wishes to accept amended terms proposed by the Company after further discussion (which a Manager may decline to do for any reason
in its sole discretion), such Manager or Managers and the Company will enter into a Terms Agreement setting forth the terms of such Placement.
The terms set forth in a Terms Agreement will not be binding on the Company or such Manager or Managers unless and until the Company
and such Manager or Managers have each executed such Terms Agreement accepting all of the terms of such Terms Agreement. In the event
of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of a Terms Agreement, the terms of such Terms Agreement will control.
(j) Each
Placement shall be made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and, if applicable, a Terms Agreement, which will provide for
the sale of such Shares to, and the purchase thereof by, such Manager. A Terms Agreement may also specify certain provisions relating
to the reoffering of such Shares by a Manager. The commitment of a Manager to purchase the Shares pursuant to any Terms Agreement shall
be deemed to have been made on the basis of the representations and warranties of the Company herein contained and shall be subject to
the terms and conditions herein set forth. Each Terms Agreement shall specify the number of the Shares to be purchased by a Manager pursuant
thereto, the price to be paid to the Company for such Shares, any provisions relating to rights of, and default by, underwriters acting
together with such Manager in the reoffering of the Shares, and the time and date (each such time and date being referred to herein as
a “Time of Delivery”) and place of delivery of and payment for such Shares.
16
(k) Under
no circumstances shall the number and aggregate amount of the Shares sold pursuant to this Agreement and any Terms Agreement exceed (i) the
aggregate amount set forth in Section 1, (ii) the number of shares of the Common Stock available for issuance under the currently
effective Registration Statement or (iii) the number and aggregate amount of the Shares authorized from time to time to be issued
and sold under this Agreement by the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”), or a duly authorized committee
thereof, and notified to the Managers in writing.
4. Agreements.
The Company agrees with each of the Managers that:
(a) During
any period when the delivery of a prospectus relating to the Shares is required (including in circumstances where such requirement may
be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172 or any similar rule) to be delivered under the Act in connection with the offering or sale of
the Shares, the Company will not file any amendment of the Registration Statement or supplement in connection with the offering and sale
of the Shares (including the Prospectus Supplement or any Interim Prospectus Supplement) to the Base Prospectus, the Disclosure Package
or the Prospectus, whether pursuant to the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, unless (i) the Company has furnished to the Managers
a copy of such amendment or supplement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, reports or other information to be filed by the Company
under the Exchange Act that would be incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement and the Prospectus) for its review a reasonable
period of time prior to filing (or, in the case of Current Reports on Form 8-K, has used its commercially reasonable efforts to
so furnish copies to the Managers prior to filing), and (ii) except for reports or other information required to be filed by the
Company under the Exchange Act, the Company will not file any such proposed amendment or supplement to which the Managers reasonably
object. The Company has prepared the Prospectus, in a form approved by the Managers, and shall file such Prospectus, as amended at the
Execution Time, with the Commission pursuant to the applicable paragraph of Rule 424(b) promptly after the Execution Time (but
in any event within the time period described thereby) and will cause any supplement to the Prospectus to be prepared, in a form approved
by the Managers, and will file such supplement with the Commission pursuant to the applicable paragraph of Rule 424(b) within
the time period prescribed thereby and will notify the Managers of such timely filing. The Company, subject to this Section 4(a) and
Section 4(c), will comply with the requirements of Rule 430B. During any period when the delivery of a prospectus relating
to the Shares is required (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172 or any similar
rule) to be delivered under the Act in connection with the offering or sale of the Shares, the Company will promptly advise the Managers
(A) when the Prospectus, and any supplement thereto, shall have been filed (if required) with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b),
(B) when, during any period when the delivery of a prospectus (whether physically or through compliance with Rule 172 or any
similar rule) is required under the Act in connection with the offering or sale of the Shares, any amendment to the Registration Statement
or any new registration statement relating to the Shares shall have been filed or become effective (other than a prospectus supplement
relating solely to the offering of securities other than the Shares), (C) of the receipt of any comments from the Commission, (D) of
any request by the Commission or its staff for any amendment of the Registration Statement, or for any supplement to the Prospectus or
for any additional information, (E) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement or of any notice objecting to its use or any the issuance of any order preventing or suspending the use of the Prospectus or
any amendment or supplement thereto, or the institution or threatening of any proceeding for any of such purposes or pursuant to Section 8A
of the Act or (F) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Shares
for sale in any jurisdiction or the institution or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose. The Company will use its best efforts
to prevent the issuance of any such stop order or the occurrence of any such suspension or objection to the use of the Registration Statement
and, upon such issuance, occurrence or notice of objection, to obtain at the earliest possible moment the withdrawal of such stop order
or relief from such occurrence or objection, including, if necessary, by filing an amendment to the Registration Statement or a new registration
statement and using its best efforts to have such amendment or new registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable.
17
(b) If,
at any time on or after an Applicable Time but prior to the related Settlement Date or Time of Delivery, any event occurs as a result
of which the Disclosure Package would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to
make the statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were made or the circumstances then prevailing not misleading,
the Company will (i) notify promptly the relevant Manager(s) so that any use of the Disclosure Package may cease until it is
amended or supplemented; (ii) amend or supplement the Disclosure Package to correct such statement or omission; and (iii) supply
any amendment or supplement to the relevant Manager(s) in such quantities as the Manager(s) may reasonably request.
(c) During
any period when the delivery of a prospectus relating to the Shares is required (including in circumstances where such requirement may
be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172 or any similar rule) to be delivered under the Act, if any event occurs as a result of which the
Prospectus as then supplemented would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to
make the statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were made at such time not misleading, or if it shall
be necessary to amend the Registration Statement, file a new registration statement or supplement the Prospectus to comply with the Act
or the Exchange Act or the respective rules thereunder, including in connection with use or delivery of the Prospectus, the Company
promptly will (i) notify the Managers of any such event, (ii) prepare and file with the Commission, subject to the first sentence
of paragraph (a) of this Section 4, an amendment or supplement or new registration statement which will correct such statement
or omission or effect such compliance, (iii) use its best efforts to have any amendment to the Registration Statement or new registration
statement declared effective as soon as practicable in order to avoid any disruption in use of the Prospectus and (iv) supply any
supplemented Prospectus to the Managers in such quantities as the Managers may reasonably request.
(d) As
soon as practicable, the Company will make generally available to its security holders and to the Managers an earnings statement or statements
of the Company and its subsidiaries which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Act and Rule 158.
(e) The
Company will deliver to the Managers and counsel for the Managers, without charge, as such Managers or counsel for the Managers may reasonably
request, signed copies of the Registration Statement as originally filed and of each amendment thereto (including exhibits filed therewith
or incorporated by reference therein and documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein) and signed copies
of all consents and certificates of experts. The Registration Statement and each amendment thereto furnished to the Managers will be
identical to any electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR, except to the extent permitted
by Regulation S-T. The Company will pay the expenses of printing or other production of all documents relating to the offering.
18
(f) The
Company will deliver to the Managers and counsel for the Managers, without charge, for so long as delivery of a prospectus by the Managers
or dealer may be required by the Act (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172 or
any similar rule), as many copies of the Prospectus and each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and any supplement thereto as any Manager
may reasonably request. The Prospectus and any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and any amendments or supplements thereto furnished to
the Managers will be identical to any electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR, except to
the extent permitted by Regulation S-T. The Company will pay the expenses of printing or other production of all documents relating to
the offering.
(g) The
Company will arrange, if necessary, for the qualification of the Shares for sale under the laws of such jurisdictions as the Managers
may designate and will maintain such qualifications in effect so long as required for the distribution of the Shares; provided
that in no event shall the Company be obligated to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not now so qualified or to
take any action that would subject it to service of process in suits, other than those arising out of the offering or sale of the Shares,
in any jurisdiction where it is not now so subject or where it would be subject to taxation as a foreign business.
(h) The
Company agrees that, unless it has or shall have obtained the prior written consent of the relevant Designated Manager, and each Manager
agrees with the Company that, unless it has or shall have obtained, as the case may be, the prior written consent of the Company, it
has not made and will not make any offer relating to the Shares that would constitute an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or that would
otherwise constitute a “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405) required to be filed by the Company with the
Commission or retained by the Company under Rule 433; provided that the prior written consent of the parties hereto shall
be deemed to have been given in respect of the Free Writing Prospectuses included in Schedule I hereto. Any such free writing prospectus
consented to by the Managers or the Company is hereinafter referred to as a “Permitted Free Writing Prospectus.” The
Company agrees that (i) it has treated and will treat, as the case may be, each Permitted Free Writing Prospectus as an Issuer Free
Writing Prospectus and (ii) it has complied and will comply, as the case may be, with the requirements of Rules 164 and 433
applicable to any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, including in respect of timely filing with the Commission, legending and record
keeping.
(i) The
Company will not (i) take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to or that might reasonably be expected to cause or result
in stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of the Shares or (ii) sell,
bid for, purchase or pay any person (other than as contemplated by this Agreement or any Terms Agreement) any compensation for soliciting
purchases of the Shares.
(j) The
Company will, at any time during the term of this Agreement, as supplemented from time to time, advise the Managers promptly after it
shall have received notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of any information or fact that would materially alter or affect any opinion,
certificate, letter and other document provided to the Managers pursuant to Section 6 herein.
19
(k) Upon
commencement of the offering of the Shares under this Agreement (if requested by the Managers) (and upon the recommencement of the offering
of the Shares under this Agreement following the termination of a suspension of sales hereunder), and each time that (i) the Registration
Statement or the Prospectus shall be amended or supplemented (other than (A) an Interim Prospectus Supplement filed pursuant to
Rule 424(b) pursuant to Section 4(q) of this Agreement, (B) a prospectus supplement relating solely to the offering
or resale of securities other than the Shares or (C) the filing with the Commission of any report under the Exchange Act except
such reports referred to in Section 4(k)(ii)), (ii) there is filed with the Commission any annual report on Form 10-K
or quarterly report on Form 10-Q, or any other document that contains financial statements or financial information that is incorporated
by reference into the Prospectus, or any amendment thereto, or (iii) the Shares are delivered to one or more Managers as principal
at the Time of Delivery pursuant to a Terms Agreement (the date of such commencement in the case that the above-mentioned request is
made by a Manager), the date of each such recommencement and the date of each such event referred to in (i), (ii) and (iii) above,
a “Representation Date”), the Company shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Managers forthwith a certificate
dated and delivered on such Representation Date, as the case may be, in form satisfactory to the Managers to the effect that the statements
contained in the certificate referred to in Section 6(d) of this Agreement which were last furnished to the Managers are true
and correct at the time of such Representation Date, as though made at and as of such time (except that such statements shall be deemed
to relate to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus as amended and supplemented to such time) or, in lieu of such certificate,
a certificate of the same tenor as the certificate referred to in said Section 6(d), modified as necessary to relate to the Registration
Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus as amended and supplemented to the time of delivery of such certificate. The requirement
to provide a certificate under this Section 4(k) shall be waived for any Representation Date occurring at a time when no Company
order submitted to any Manager hereunder to sell Shares is pending or a suspension of sales hereunder is in effect, which waiver shall
continue until the earlier to occur of the date the Company submits an order to any Manager to sell Shares hereunder (which for such
calendar quarter shall be considered a Representation Date) and the next occurring Representation Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
if the Company subsequently decides to sell Shares following a Representation Date when the Company relied upon the foregoing waiver
and therefore did not provide the Managers with a certificate under this Section 4(k), then before the Company submits an order
for the sale of Shares or any Manager sells any Shares pursuant to such order, the Company shall provide the Managers with a certificate
in conformity with this Section 4(k) dated as of the date that the order for the sale of Shares is submitted to any Manager
hereunder, provided that for the avoidance of doubt, such date the certificate is delivered pursuant to the foregoing sentence shall
also be a Representation Date.
(l) At
each Representation Date with respect to which the Company is obligated to deliver a certificate pursuant to Section 4(k) for
which no waiver is applicable, the Company shall furnish or cause to be furnished forthwith to the Managers and to counsel to the Managers
a written opinion of Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP, counsel to the Company (“Company Counsel”), or other
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Managers, dated and delivered on such Representation Date, in form and substance satisfactory
to the Managers, of the same tenor as the opinion referred to in Section 6(b) of this Agreement, but modified as necessary
to relate to the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus as amended and supplemented to the time of delivery
of such opinion.
20
(m) At
each Representation Date with respect to which the Company is obligated to deliver a certificate pursuant to Section 4(k) for
which no waiver is applicable, Latham & Watkins LLP, counsel to the Managers, shall deliver a written opinion and disclosure
letter, dated and delivered on such Representation Date, in form and substance satisfactory to the Managers, of the same tenor as the
opinions and disclosure letter referred to in Section 6(c) of this Agreement but modified as necessary to relate to the Registration
Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus as amended and supplemented to the time of delivery of such opinion.
(n) At
each Representation Date with respect to which the Company is obligated to deliver a certificate pursuant to Section 4(k) for
which no waiver is applicable, the Company shall cause Deloitte & Touche LLP (the “Accountants”) and Marcum
LLP (the “Predecessor Accounts”), if applicable, or other independent accountants satisfactory to the Managers forthwith,
to furnish the Managers a letter, dated and delivered on such Representation Date, in form and substance satisfactory to the Managers
of the same tenor as the letter referred to in Section 6(e) of this Agreement but modified to relate to the Registration Statement,
the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, as amended and supplemented to the date of such letter.
(o) At
each Representation Date with respect to which the Company is obligated to deliver a certificate pursuant to Section 4(k) for
which no waiver is applicable, and at such other times as may be reasonably requested by a Manager (which shall be on a monthly basis
or otherwise), the Company will conduct a due diligence session, in form and substance satisfactory to the Managers, which shall include
representatives of the management of the Company and the independent accountants of the Company. The Company shall cooperate timely with
any reasonable due diligence request from or review conducted by the Managers or its agents from time to time in connection with the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, providing information and available documents and access
to appropriate officers and agents of the Company during regular business hours and at the Company’s principal offices, and timely
furnishing or causing to be furnished such certificates, letters and opinions from the Company, and their officers and agents, as the
Managers may reasonably request.
(p) Nothing
in this Agreement shall restrict a Manager from trading, and the Company acknowledges that each Manager may trade in the Common Stock
for such Manager’s own account and for the account of its clients before, at the same time as, or after sales of the Shares occur
pursuant to this Agreement or pursuant to a Terms Agreement.
(q) The
Company will either (i) disclose in its Annual Reports on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, as applicable,
with regard to the relevant quarter, the number of the Shares sold by or through the Managers pursuant to this Agreement, the Net Proceeds
to the Company and the compensation paid by the Company with respect to such sales of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement, or (ii) on
or prior to the earlier of (A) the date on which the Company shall file a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or an Annual Report
on Form 10-K in respect of any fiscal quarter in which sales of Shares were made by a Manager pursuant to this Agreement and (B) the
date on which the Company shall be obligated to file such document referred to in clause (A) in respect of such quarter (each such
date, and any date on which an amendment to any such document is filed, a “Filing Date”), the Company will file a
prospectus supplement with the Commission under the applicable paragraph of Rule 424(b), which prospectus supplement will set forth,
with regard to such quarter, the number of the Shares sold by or through a Manager pursuant to this Agreement, the Net Proceeds to the
Company and the compensation paid by the Company with respect to such sales of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement and deliver such
number of copies of each such prospectus supplement to the NYSE as are required by such exchange.
21
(r) If,
to the knowledge of the Company, the conditions set forth in Section 6(a) or 6(f) shall not be true and correct on the
applicable Settlement Date or Time of Delivery, the Company will offer to any person who has agreed to purchase Shares from the Company
as the result of an offer to purchase solicited by a Designated Manager the right to refuse to purchase and pay for such Shares.
(s) Each
acceptance by the Company of an offer to purchase the Shares hereunder, and each execution and delivery by the Company of a Terms Agreement,
shall be deemed to be an affirmation to the Designated Manager, or the Manager(s) party to a Terms Agreement, as the case may be,
that the representations and warranties of the Company contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement are true and correct as of the
date of such acceptance or of such Terms Agreement as though made at and as of such date, and an undertaking that such representations
and warranties will be true and correct as of the Settlement Date for the Shares relating to such acceptance or as of the Time of Delivery
relating to such sale, as the case may be, as though made at and as of such date (except that such representations and warranties shall
be deemed to relate to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus as amended and supplemented relating to such Shares).
(t) The
Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Shares to be listed for trading on NYSE and to maintain such listing.
(u) During
any period when the delivery of a prospectus relating to the Shares is required (including in circumstances where such requirement may
be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172 or any similar rule) to be delivered under the Act, the Company shall file, on a timely basis,
with the Commission and the NYSE all reports and documents required to be filed under the Exchange Act and the regulations thereunder.
(v) The
Company shall cooperate with the Managers and use its reasonable efforts to permit the Shares to be eligible for clearance and settlement
through the facilities of DTC.
(w) The
Company will apply the Net Proceeds from the sale of the Shares in the manner set forth in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.
22
5. Payment
of Expenses. The Company agrees to pay all costs, fees and expenses incurred in connection with the performance of its obligations
under this Agreement, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, including without limitation (i) all

transfer and other stamp taxes in connection with the issuance and sale of the Shares, (iii) all fees and expenses of the Company’s
counsel, independent public or certified public accountants and other advisors to the Company, and the reasonable fees and expenses of
the Manager’s counsel (which shall be one outside counsel for all Managers unless otherwise agreed by the Company) (iv) all

incurred by the Company or the Managers in connection with qualifying or registering (or obtaining exemptions from the qualification
or registration of) all or any part of the Shares for offer and sale under the state securities or blue sky laws, and, if requested by
the Managers, preparing a “Blue Sky Survey” or memorandum, and any supplements thereto, advising the Managers of such qualifications,

Shares, (vii) the fees and expenses associated with listing of the Shares on the NYSE, (viii) all fees and expenses of the

of the Company in connection with approval of the Shares by DTC for “book-entry” transfer, (x) all other fees, costs
and expenses referred to in Item 14 of Part II of the Registration Statement and (xi) all other fees, costs and expenses incurred
in connection with the performance of its obligations hereunder for which provision is not otherwise made in this Section 5; provided,
however, that the amount payable by the Company pursuant to subsection (iii) with respect to the reasonable fees and expenses of
Manager’s counsel shall not exceed (A) $100,000 arising out of the executing this Agreement and the filing of the Registration

includes a Representation Date with respect to which the Company is obligated to deliver a certificate pursuant to Section 4(k) for
which no waiver is applicable). Except as provided in this Section 5 and in Section 7 hereof, the Managers shall pay their
own expenses.
6. Conditions
to the Obligations of the Managers. The obligations of the Managers under this Agreement and any Terms Agreement shall be subject
to (i) the accuracy of the representations and warranties on the part of the Company contained herein as of the Execution Time,
each Representation Date, and as of each Applicable Time, Settlement Date and Time of Delivery, (ii) to the performance by the Company
of its obligations hereunder and (iii) the following additional conditions:

filed in the manner required by Rule 424(b) within the time period required by Section 4(q) of this Agreement; any

of the Act shall have been instituted or threatened.
23
(b) The
Company shall have requested and caused Company Counsel to furnish to the Managers, on every date specified in Section 4(l) of
this Agreement, opinions in form and substance satisfactory to the Managers.
(c) The
Managers shall have received Latham & Watkins LLP, counsel for the Managers, on every date specified in Section 4(m) of

the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus and any supplements or amendments thereto and this Agreement and
that:
(i) the
Company has received no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, and no proceedings for such purpose or
pursuant to Section 8A of the Act have been instituted or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened by the Commission;
(ii) since
the date of the most recent financial statements included in the Prospectus and the Disclosure Package, there has been no event or condition
of a type described in Section 2(k) hereof (a “Material Adverse Change”), except as set forth in or contemplated
in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus;
(iii) the
representations, warranties and covenants set forth in Section 2 of this Agreement are true and correct with the same force and

on every date specified in Section 4(n) hereof and to the extent requested by the Managers in connection with any offering

satisfactory to the Managers, which letters shall cover, without limitation, the various financial statements and disclosures contained
in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus and other matters ordinarily covered by accountants’ “comfort
letters” to underwriters in connection with registered public offerings as contemplated in the Statement on Auditing Standards

(f) Since
the respective dates as of which information is disclosed in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, except
as otherwise stated therein, there shall not have been (i) any change or decrease specified in the letter or letters referred to
in paragraph (e) of this Section 6 or (ii) Material Adverse Change, except as set forth in or contemplated in the Disclosure
Package (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto) the effect of which, in any case referred to in clause (i) or (ii) above,
is, in the sole judgment of the Managers, so material and adverse as to make it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering
or delivery of the Shares as contemplated by the Registration Statement (exclusive of any amendment thereof), the Disclosure Package
and the Prospectus (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto).

to the Managers and counsel for the Managers, this Agreement and all obligations of the applicable Manager hereunder may be canceled
at, or at any time prior to, any Settlement Date or Time of Delivery, as applicable, by such Manager with respect to itself only. Notice
of such cancellation shall be given to the Company in writing or by telephone or facsimile confirmed in writing. Following any such cancellation
by a Manager, this Agreement shall remain in effect as to the other Manager that has not exercised its right to cancel this Agreement
pursuant to this Section 6 and any obligations and rights of the Managers under this Agreement shall be satisfied by or afforded
to only such other Manager.

counsel for the Managers, at 330 North Wabash Avenue, Suite 2800, Chicago, IL 60611, on each such date as provided in this
Agreement.

7. Indemnification
and Contribution.
(a) The
Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Manager, its affiliates, as such term is defined in Rule 501(b) under the
Act (each, an “Affiliate”), the directors, officers, employees and agents of each Manager, any broker-dealer affiliate
of a Manager through which Shares are sold, and each person who controls a Manager within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange
Act and against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense, as incurred, to which they or any of them may become subject under the
Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise (including in settlement of any
litigation, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company or otherwise permitted by paragraph (d) below),
insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arises out of or is based
(i) upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendment
thereto) or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading; or (ii) upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Issuer
Free Writing Prospectus or any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under
the Act, the Base Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement or any Interim Prospectus Supplement (or any amendment or supplement thereto)
or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact, in each case, necessary in order to make the statements therein, in
the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; or (iii) in whole or in part upon any inaccuracy in the
representations and warranties of the Company contained herein; or (iv) in whole or in part upon any failure of the Company to perform
its obligations hereunder or under law; and agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, for any and all expenses (including the
reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by the indemnified party) as such expenses are reasonably incurred by them in connection
with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action; provided,
however, that the foregoing indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense to the extent,
but only to the extent, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission
made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any Manager expressly for use in the Registration
Statement (or any amendment thereto), any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto).
This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liabilities that the Company may otherwise have.
(b) Each
Manager agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who
signed the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Act or the Exchange Act,
against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense, as incurred, to which the Company or any such director, officer or controlling
person may become subject, under the Act, the Exchange Act, or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, or at common law or
otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of such Manager or otherwise
permitted by paragraph (d) below), insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated
below) arises out of or is based (i) upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration
Statement (or any amendment thereto) or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; or (ii) upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material
fact contained in any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to
Rule 433(d) under the Act, the Base Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement or any Interim Prospectus Supplement (or any amendment
or supplement thereto) or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact, in each case, necessary in order to make the
statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only
to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in the Registration Statement,
the Base Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any Prospectus Supplement or any Interim Prospectus Supplement (or any amendment
or supplement thereto), in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any Manager expressly
for use therein; and to reimburse the Company, or any such director, officer or controlling person for any reasonable and documented
out-of-pocket legal and other expense reasonably incurred by the Company, or any such director, officer or controlling person in connection
with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action. The indemnity
agreement set forth in this Section 7(b) shall be in addition to any liabilities that each Manager may otherwise have. The
Company acknowledges that with respect to each Manager, the name of such Manager constitutes the only information furnished in writing
by or on behalf of the several Managers for inclusion in the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus,
any Prospectus Supplement or any Interim Prospectus Supplement (or any amendment or supplement thereto).
26
(c) Promptly
after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 7 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will,
if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 7, notify the indemnifying party in
writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which
it may have to any indemnified party for contribution or otherwise than under the indemnity agreement contained in paragraph (a) or
(b) above or to the extent it is not prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) as a proximate result
of such failure. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and such indemnified party seeks or intends to seek
indemnity from an indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that it shall elect,
jointly with all other indemnifying parties similarly notified, by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving
the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified
party; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying
party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that a conflict may arise between the positions of the indemnifying party
and the indemnified party in conducting the defense of any such action or that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other
indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties
shall have the right to select separate counsel to assume such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action
on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of such
indemnifying party’s election to assume the defense of such action and approval by the indemnified party of counsel, the indemnifying
party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 7 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by
such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel
in accordance with the proviso to the next preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be
liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (together with local counsel), approved by the indemnifying party (the Managers
in the case of Section 7(b) and Section 7(e)), representing the indemnified parties who are parties to such action), (ii) the
indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party
within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action, in each of which cases the fees and expenses of counsel shall be
at the expense of the indemnifying party or (iii) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate
counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party.
27
(d) The
indemnifying party under this Section 7 shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent,
but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified
party against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence,
if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for reasonable and
documented fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by Section 7(c) hereof, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall
be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more
than 60 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed
the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the
prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement, compromise or consent to the entry of judgment in any pending
or threatened action, suit or proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity was or
could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional
release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such action, suit or proceeding and (ii) does
not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party.
(e) If
the indemnification provided for in this Section 7 is for any reason held to be unavailable to or otherwise insufficient to hold
harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying
party shall contribute to the aggregate amount paid or payable by such indemnified party, as incurred, as a result of any losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received
by the Company, on the one hand, and each Manager, on the other hand, from the offering of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement, or
(ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate
to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one
hand, and each Manager, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions or inaccuracies in the representations and
warranties herein which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.
The relative benefits received by the Company shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the offering (after deducting
underwriting commissions and discounts but before deducting expenses) received by them, and benefits received by each Manager shall be
deemed to be equal to the total compensation received by such Manager under Section 3(c) of this Agreement, in each case as
determined by this Agreement or any applicable Terms Agreement. The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and each Manager,
on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact or any such inaccurate or alleged inaccurate representation or
warranty relates to information supplied by the Company, on the one hand, or such Manager, on the other hand, and the parties’
relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.
28
The amount paid or payable
by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject
to the limitations set forth in Section 7(c), any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket legal or other fees or expenses reasonably
incurred by such party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim. The provisions set forth in Section 7(c) with
respect to notice of commencement of any action shall apply if a claim for contribution is to be made under this Section 7(e); provided,
however, that no additional notice shall be required with respect to any action for which notice has been given under Section 7(c) for
purposes of indemnification.
The Company and the Managers
agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7(e) were determined by pro rata allocation
(even if the Managers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of
the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 7(e).
Notwithstanding the provisions
of this Section 7(e), no Manager shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the discounts and commissions received
by such Manager in connection with the Shares sold by it pursuant to this Agreement and any applicable Terms Agreement in the specific
transaction or transactions giving rise to the contribution obligation. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the
meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation. The Managers’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 7(e) are several, and not joint.
For purposes of this Section 7(e), each Affiliate, director, officer, employee and agent of a Manager, each person, if any, who
controls a Manager within the meaning of the Act and the Exchange Act and any broker-dealer affiliate of a Manager through which Shares
are sold shall have the same rights to contribution as such Manager, and each director of the Company or each officer of the Company
who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Act and the Exchange
Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company.
8. Termination.
(a) The
Company shall have the right, by giving written notice as hereinafter specified, to terminate the provisions of this Agreement relating
to the solicitation of offers to purchase the Shares in its sole discretion at any time. Any such termination shall be without liability
of any party to any other party except that (i) if Shares have been sold through a Manager for the Company, then Section 4(s) shall
remain in full force and effect with respect to such Manager and the Company, (ii) with respect to any pending sale, through the
Designated Manager for the Company, the obligations of the Company, including in respect of compensation of the Designated Manager, shall
remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the termination and (iii) the provisions of Sections 2, 5, 7, 9, 10, 12 and 14 of
this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination.
29
(b) Each
Manager shall have the right, by giving written notice as hereinafter specified, to terminate the provisions of this Agreement relating
to the solicitation of offers to purchase the Shares in its sole discretion at any time, with respect to such Manager only. Any such
termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except that the provisions of Sections 2, 5, 7, 9, 10, 12 and
14 of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect with respect to such Manager notwithstanding such termination. Following any
such termination by a Manager, this Agreement shall remain in effect as to each other Manager that has not exercised its right to terminate
the provisions of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8(b) and any obligations and rights of the Managers under this Agreement
shall be satisfied by or afforded to, as applicable, only such other Managers.
(c) This
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect unless terminated pursuant to Sections 8(a) or (b) above or otherwise by mutual
agreement of the parties; provided that any such termination by mutual agreement shall in all cases be deemed to provide that
Sections 2, 5, 7 and 9 shall remain in full force and effect.
(d) Any
termination of this Agreement shall be effective on the date specified in such notice of termination; provided that such termination
shall not be effective until the close of business on the date of receipt of such notice by a Manager or the Company, as the case may
be. If such termination shall occur prior to the Settlement Date or Time of Delivery for any sale of the Shares, such sale shall, subject
to Section 6 hereof, settle in accordance with the provisions of Section 3(e) of this Agreement.
(e) In
the case of any purchase of Shares by a Manager pursuant to a Terms Agreement, the obligations of such Manager pursuant to such Terms
Agreement shall be subject to termination, in the absolute discretion of such Manager, by notice given to the Company prior to the Time
of Delivery relating to such Shares, if at any time prior to such delivery and payment (i) trading or quotation in any of the Company’s
securities shall have been suspended or limited by the Commission or by NYSE, or trading in securities generally on either the NYSE or
the New York Stock Exchange shall have been suspended or limited, or minimum or maximum prices shall have been generally established
on any of such stock exchanges by the Commission or FINRA; (ii) a general banking moratorium shall have been declared by any of
federal or New York authorities; (iii) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of national or international hostilities
or any crisis or calamity involving the United States, or any change in the United States or international financial markets, or any
substantial change or development involving a prospective substantial change in United States’ or international political, financial
or economic conditions, as in the judgment of such Manager is material and adverse and makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed
with the offering or delivery of the Shares in the manner and on the terms described in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus or
to enforce contracts for the sale of securities; (iv) in the judgment of such Manager there shall have occurred any Material Adverse
Change or (v) there shall have occurred a material disruption in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services
in the United States.
9. Representations
and Indemnities to Survive. The respective agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of the Company,
the officers of the Company and of each Manager set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect,
regardless of any investigation made by a Manager or the Company or any of the officers, directors, employees, agents or controlling
persons referred to in Section 7 hereof, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Shares.

We have acted as counsel for Oklo Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the offering by the Company of up to $1,000,000,000 of shares of the Company’s
Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 (the “Shares”), pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration
Statement No. 333-291157), filed on October 30, 2025 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”)
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), which registration statement was subsequently amended by that Amendment
No. 1 to the registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the Commission on November 13, 2025 (the “Registration
Statement”), the prospectus dated December 4, 2025 (the “Base Prospectus”), and the prospectus supplement dated
May 13, 2026, filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the rules and regulations of the Act (the “Prospectus
Supplement”). The Base Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement are collectively referred to as the “Prospectus.” The
Shares are to be sold by the Company in the manner described in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus.
In connection with rendering this opinion, we
have examined and relied upon originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of (i) the Second Amended
and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, as amended through the date hereof, (ii) the Amended and Restated Bylaws
of the Company, as amended through the date hereof, (iii) certain resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Company relating
to the issuance, sale and registration of the Shares, (iv) the Registration Statement, (v) the Prospectus and (vi) such
corporate records of the Company, certificates of public officials, officers of the Company and other persons, and such other documents,
agreements and instruments as we have deemed relevant and necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinion set forth below.
In our examination, we have assumed the legal
capacity of all natural persons, the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the
conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as facsimile, electronic, certified or photostatic copies, and the
authenticity of the originals of such copies. In making our examination of documents executed or to be executed, we have assumed that
the parties thereto, other than the Company, had or will have the power, corporate or other, to enter into and perform all obligations
thereunder and have also assumed the due authorization by all requisite action, corporate or other, and the execution and delivery by
such parties of such documents and the validity and binding effect thereof on such parties. As to any facts material to the opinions
expressed herein that we did not independently establish or verify, we have relied upon statements and representations of officers and
other representatives of the Company and others and of public officials.
Oklo Inc.

Based upon the foregoing and subject to the limitations,
qualifications and assumptions set forth herein, we are of the opinion that the Shares have been duly authorized and, upon issuance,
delivery and payment therefor in the manner contemplated by the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, will be validly issued, fully
paid and non-assessable.
The opinion expressed herein is limited to the
General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the federal laws of the United States of America, and we express no opinion as to
the effect on the matters covered by this letter of the laws of any other jurisdictions.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion
letter as an exhibit to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Commission on or about May 13, 2026,
and to the reference to our firm under the heading “Legal Matters” in the Prospectus. In giving such consent, we do not hereby
admit that we are included in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act or the rules and
regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder.
Very truly yours,
/s/ ORRICK, HERRINGTON & SUTCLIFFE LLP
