CAUTIONARY

STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This

report contains statements regarding Athena, Ace Green, Athena’s proposed business combination with Ace Green (the “Business

Combination”) and other matters that are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of

1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be

identified by words such as “anticipate,” “approximate,” “believe,” “plan,” “estimate,”

“expect,” “project,” “could,” “should,” “strategy,” “will,” “intend,”

“may” and other similar expressions or the negative of such words or expressions. Statements in this report concerning (i)

Athena’s or Ace Green’s expected future financial position, business strategy, production capacity, competitive positions,

growth opportunities, plans and objectives of management and (ii) the expected benefits of the Business Combination, together with other

statements that are not historical facts, are forward-looking statements that are estimates reflecting management’s best judgment

based upon currently available information. Such forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain, and stockholders and other potential

investors must recognize that actual results may differ materially from expectations as a result of a variety of factors, including,

without limitation, those discussed below. Such forward-looking statements are based upon management’s current expectations and

include known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which Athena and Ace Green are unable to predict or control,

that may cause actual results, performance or plans to differ materially from any future results, performance or plans expressed or implied

by such forward-looking statements. These statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially

from those anticipated in these statements as a result of a number of factors, including, but not limited to:

● Ace

Green has a limited operating history at scale and is developing a flagship and new facility

in the United States; scaling up its operations and expansion in the U.S. may carry uncertainties

and pose liquidity risks to Ace Green;

● Ace

Green may not be able to secure adequate capital to execute its business plan;

● If

Ace Green is unable to overcome the workforce and engineering challenges arising from scaling

up production from its existing capacities, it may not succeed in executing its growth and

expansion plans;

● Successful

or timely implementation of Ace Green’s planned U.S. facility may be delayed due to

licensing or regulatory issues;

● A

large portion of Ace Green’s profit is derived from a relatively small number of major

customers, and its business, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially

and adversely affected if its key customers fail to meet their contractual obligations;

2

● Prices

for recovered materials are subject to global market fluctuations and price instability may

negatively impact Ace Green’s financial performance;

● Ace

Green relies on third-party vendors for key machineries and failure to acquire and maintain

them may adversely disrupt its operations;

● A

decline in green energy adoption may inhibit future recycling opportunities and may result

in decreased demand for Ace Green’s products;

● Ace

Green’s proprietary know-how may be rivaled by competitors, which may erode the technological

edge it has established;

● Unfavorable

economic or geopolitical conditions could constrain Ace Green’s expansion, inhibit

its further growth and otherwise have a material adverse effect on its business, results

of operations, prospects and financial condition;

● Athena

and Ace Green may not obtain the requisite stockholder approvals for the Business Combination;

● Nasdaq

may not list the common stock of the surviving company following the Business Combination,

which could limit investors’ ability to effect transactions following the Business

Combination;

● An

event, change or other circumstance could result in the termination of the Business Combination;

● A

condition to the closing of the Business Combination may not be satisfied;

● There

may be delays in completing the Business Combination;

● Any

announcement or news coverage relating to the Business Combination could have adverse effects

on the market price of Athena common stock or Ace Green common stock;

● The

risk of litigation related to the merger; and

● Other

risks and uncertainties identified in the “Risk Factors,” “Management’s

Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Business”

sections of Athena’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, and other risks as identified

from time to time in its SEC reports.

All

of the forward-looking statements Athena and Ace Green make in or in connection with this report are qualified by the information contained

or incorporated by reference in a registration statement filed by Athena and Ace Green on Form S-4, that includes a proxy statement and

a prospectus, to register the shares of Athena stock that will be issued to Ace Green’s stockholders (the “Registration Statement”).

For additional information, see the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Where You Can Find More Information”

beginning on pages 18 and 208, respectively, of the Registration Statement.

Forward-looking

statements are based on the estimates and opinions of management at the time the statements are made. Except to the extent required by

applicable law, neither Athena nor Ace Green undertakes any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether

as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements

that speak only as of the date hereof.

OF

ACE GREEN RECYCLING, INC.

The current name of the corporation

filing of its original Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on May 20, 2021. This Amended

and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the corporation, which restates and integrates and also further amends the provisions of

the corporation’s certificate of incorporation, as heretofore amended, was duly adopted in accordance with the provisions of Sections

designated as common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and 5,000,000 shall be designated as

preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”).

Section 4.2 Common Stock.

(a) Each holder of Common

Stock, as such, shall be entitled to one vote for each share of Common Stock held of record by such holder on all matters on which stockholders

generally are entitled to vote; provided, however, that, except as otherwise required by law, holders of Common Stock, as

such, shall not be entitled to vote on any amendment to this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (as the same may be amended

and/or restated from time to time, the “Certificate of Incorporation”), including any certificate of designations relating

to any series of Preferred Stock (each hereinafter referred to as a “Preferred Stock Designation”), that relates solely

to the terms of one or more outstanding series of Preferred Stock if the holders of such affected series are entitled, either separately

or together with the holders of one or more other such series, to vote thereon pursuant to this Certificate of Incorporation (including

any Preferred Stock Designation).

(b) Reclassification of

Class B Common Stock. Upon the filing and effectiveness of this Certificate with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the

“Effective Time”), each share of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Corporation, issued and

outstanding or held in treasury immediately prior to the Effective Time (“Old Common Stock”) and without any action

on the part of the holder thereof, shall be reclassified as and converted into one share of Common Stock, with a par value of $0.0001

per share. Any stock certificate or book entry representing shares of Old Common Stock shall thereafter represent a number of whole shares

of Common Stock into which such shares of Old Common Stock shall have been reclassified.

(d) Liquidation. Upon

the dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Corporation, subject to the rights of the holders of any outstanding series of Preferred

Stock, the holders of shares of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to

its stockholders ratably in proportion to the number of shares held by them.

Section 4.3 Preferred

Stock. Shares of Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series. Subject to limitations prescribed by law and

the provisions of this Article IV, the Board of Directors is hereby authorized to provide by resolution and by causing the filing of a

Preferred Stock Designation for the issuance of the shares of Preferred Stock in one or more series, and to establish from time to time

the number of shares to be included in each such series, and to fix the designations, powers (including voting powers, whether full, limited

or no voting powers), preferences, and relative, participating, optional or other rights, if any, and the qualifications, limitations

or restrictions, if any, of the shares of each such series.

Section 4.4 No Class Vote

on Changes in Authorized Number of Shares of Stock. Subject to the rights of the holders of any outstanding series of Preferred Stock,

the number of authorized shares of any class or classes of stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof

then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the voting power of the stock entitled to vote irrespective of the

provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL.

ARTICLE V

BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Section 5.1 Number.

Except as otherwise provided for or fixed pursuant to the provisions of Article IV hereof (including any Preferred Stock Designation),

the Board of Directors shall consist of six directors or such other number as may be determined from time to time solely by resolution

adopted by the affirmative vote of a majority of the total number of directors then authorized.

Section 5.2 Vacancies;

Removal.

(a) Subject to the rights

of the holders of any outstanding series of Preferred Stock, unless otherwise required by law, newly created directorships resulting from

any increase in the authorized number of directors and any vacancies in the Board of Directors resulting from death, resignation, retirement,

disqualification, removal from office or other cause shall be filled solely by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors

then in office, even though less than a quorum of the Board of Directors, or by the sole remaining director. Any director so chosen shall

hold office until the next election of directors and until his or her successor shall have been duly elected and qualified. No decrease

in the authorized number of directors shall shorten the term of any incumbent director.

(b) Except for such additional

directors, if any, as are elected by the holders of any series of Preferred Stock as provided for or fixed pursuant to the provisions

of Article IV hereof (including any Preferred Stock Designation), and unless otherwise restricted by law, any director, or the entire

Board of Directors, may be removed, but only for cause, by the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the voting power of the stock

outstanding and entitled to vote thereon.

(c) The directors (other

than those directors elected by the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, voting separately as a series or together with one or more

other such series, as the case may be) shall be divided into three classes, as nearly equal in number as possible and designated Class

I, Class II and Class III. The term of the initial Class I Directors shall expire at the first annual meeting of the stockholders of the

Corporation following the effectiveness of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the term of the initial Class II Directors

shall expire at the second annual meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation following the effectiveness of this Amended and Restated

Certificate of Incorporation and the term of the initial Class III Directors shall expire at the third annual meeting of the stockholders

of the Corporation following the effectiveness of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation. At each succeeding annual meeting

of the stockholders of the Corporation, beginning with the first annual meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation following the effectiveness

of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, each of the successors elected to replace the class of directors whose term

expires at that annual meeting shall be elected for a three-year term or until the election and qualification of their respective successors

in office, subject to their earlier death, resignation or removal. If the number of directors that constitute the Board of Directors is

changed, any increase or decrease (other than with respect to directors elected by the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, voting

separately as a series or together with one or more other such series, as the case may be) shall be apportioned by the Board of Directors

among the classes so as to maintain the number of directors in each class as nearly equal as possible, but in no case shall a decrease

in the number of directors constituting the Board of Directors shorten the term of any incumbent director. The Board of Directors is hereby

expressly authorized, by resolution or resolutions thereof, to assign members of the Board already in office to the aforesaid classes

at the time this Amended and Restated Certificate of Amendment (and therefore such classification) becomes effective in accordance with

the DGCL.

2

(d) During any period when

the holders of any series of Preferred Stock have the right to elect additional directors as provided for or fixed pursuant to the provisions

of Article IV hereof (including any Preferred Stock Designation), and upon commencement and for the duration of the period during which

such right continues: (i) the then otherwise total authorized number of directors of the Corporation shall automatically be increased

by such number of directors that the holders of any series of Preferred Stock have a right to elect, and the holders of such Preferred

Stock shall be entitled to elect the additional directors so provided for or fixed pursuant to said provisions; and (ii) each Preferred

Stock Director shall serve until such Preferred Stock Director’s successor shall have been duly elected and qualified, or until

such director’s right to hold such office terminates pursuant to said provisions, whichever occurs earlier, subject to his or her

earlier death, disqualification, resignation or removal. In case any vacancy shall occur among the Preferred Stock Directors, a successor

may be elected by the holders of Preferred Stock pursuant to said provisions. Except as otherwise provided for or fixed pursuant to the

provisions of Article IV hereof (including any Preferred Stock Designation), whenever the holders of any series of Preferred Stock having

such right to elect additional directors are divested of such right pursuant to said provisions, the terms of office of all such Preferred

Stock Directors elected by the holders of such Preferred Stock, or elected to fill any vacancies resulting from the death, resignation,

disqualification or removal of such additional directors, shall forthwith terminate and the total authorized number of directors of the

Corporation shall be reduced accordingly.

Section 5.3 Powers.

Except as otherwise provided in this Certificate of Incorporation or the DGCL, the business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed

by or under the direction of the Board of Directors.

Section 5.4 Election;

Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

in which it is formed or registered and in each other jurisdiction where it does business or operates to the extent that the character

of the property owned, or leased or operated by it or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification or licensing

necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or licensed or in good standing would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably

be expected to have a Target Material Adverse Effect. The Target has made available to the Purchaser accurate and complete copies of the

Target Companies’ Organizational Documents, each as amended to date and as currently in effect. No Target Company is in violation

of any provision of its Organizational Documents.

result in a violation or revocation of any required Consents, except to the extent that the occurrence of any of the foregoing items set

Effect.

the truth and completeness of the representations and warranties of the Purchaser contained in this Agreement, no consent, notice, approval

Company in any material respect.

28

(n) Intellectual Property.

(i) Section

3.3(n)(i) of the Target Disclosure Letter sets forth a true, accurate, and complete list of: (1) all U.S. and foreign registered or

issued Intellectual Property and applications owned or licensed by a Target Company or otherwise used or held for use by a Target Company

in which a Target Company is the owner, applicant or assignee (“Target Registered IP”), specifying as to each

item, as applicable: (A) the nature of the item, including the title, (B) the owner of the item, (C) the jurisdictions in which the item

is issued or registered or in which an application for issuance or registration has been filed and (D) the issuance, registration or application

numbers and dates; and (2) all material unregistered trademarks and service marks. Each item of Target Registered IP is valid, subsisting

and enforceable. Each Target Company owns, free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Liens or any Liens set out on Section

3.3(n)(i) of the Target Disclosure Letter), has valid and enforceable rights in, and has the right to use, sell, license, transfer

or assign, all Intellectual Property currently used, licensed or held for use by such Target Company, and previously used or licensed

by such Target Company. No item of Target Registered IP that consists of a pending Patent application fails to identify all pertinent

inventors, and for each Patent and Patent application in the Target Registered IP, the Target Companies have obtained valid assignments

of inventions from each inventor. Except as set forth on Section 3.3(n)(i) of the Target Disclosure Letter, all Target Registered

IP and other Owned Intellectual Property are owned exclusively by the applicable Target Company without obligation to pay royalties, licensing

fees or other fees, or otherwise account to any third party with respect to such Target Registered IP and other Owned Intellectual Property,

and such Target Company has recorded assignments of all Target Registered IP.

(ii) Each Target

Company has a valid and enforceable written license or other valid right to use all other Target IP, including Intellectual Property that

is the subject of the Target IP Licenses applicable to such Target Company. The Target IP Licenses include all of the licenses, sublicenses

and other agreements or permissions necessary to operate the Target Companies as presently conducted. Each Target Company has performed

all obligations imposed on it in the Target IP Licenses, has made all payments required to date, and such Target Company is not, nor,

to the Knowledge of the Target, is any other party thereto, in breach or default thereunder, nor has any event occurred that with notice

or lapse of time or both would constitute a default thereunder. The continued use by the Target Companies of the Intellectual Property

that is the subject of the Target IP Licenses in the same manner that it is currently being used is not restricted by any applicable license

of any Target Company. All registrations for Intellectual Property that are owned by or exclusively licensed to any Target Company are

valid, in force and in good standing with all required fees and maintenance fees having been paid with no Legal Proceedings pending, and

all applications to register any Intellectual Property are pending and in good standing, all without challenge of any kind. No Target

Company is party to any Contract that requires a Target Company to assign to any Person any or all of its rights in any Intellectual Property

developed by a Target Company under such Contract.

(iii) Each Target

Company has performed all material obligations imposed on it in each material license, sublicense and other agreement under which a Target

Company is the licensor (each, an “Outbound IP License”), and such Target Company is not, nor, to the Target’s Knowledge,

is any other party thereto, in material breach or default thereunder, nor, to the Knowledge of the Target, has any event occurred that

with notice or lapse of time or both would constitute a material default thereunder.

(iv) No Legal

Proceeding is pending or, to the Target’s Knowledge, threatened against a Target Company that challenges the validity, enforceability,

ownership, or right to use, sell, license or sublicense, or that otherwise relates to, any Target IP, nor, to the Knowledge of the Target,

is there any reasonable basis for any such Legal Proceeding. No Target Company has received any written or, to the Knowledge of the Target,

oral notice or claim asserting that any infringement, misappropriation, violation, dilution or unauthorized use of the Intellectual Property

of any other Person is or may be occurring or has or may have occurred, as a consequence of the business activities of any Target Company,

nor to the Knowledge of the Target is there a reasonable basis therefor. There are no Orders to which any Target Company is a party or

its otherwise bound that (i) restrict the rights of a Target Company to use, transfer, license or enforce any Intellectual Property owned

by a Target Company, (ii) restrict the conduct of the business of a Target Company in order to accommodate a third Person’s Intellectual

Property, or (iii) other than the Outbound IP Licenses, grant any third Person any right with respect to any Intellectual Property owned

by a Target Company. No Target Company is currently infringing, or has, in the past, six (6) years, infringed, misappropriated or violated

any Intellectual Property of any other Person in any material respect in connection with the ownership, use or license of any Owned Intellectual

Property or otherwise in connection with the conduct of the respective businesses of the Target Companies. To the Target’s Knowledge,

no third party is currently, or in the past six (6) years has been, infringing upon, misappropriating or otherwise violating any Target

IP.

29

(v) No current

or former officers, employees or independent contractors of a Target Company has any ownership interest in any Owned Intellectual Property

and no Person has claimed or asserted in writing any ownership interest or other rights in or to any Owned Intellectual Property. To the

Target’s Knowledge, there has been no violation of a Target Company’s policies or practices related to protection of Target

IP or any confidentiality or nondisclosure Contract relating to the Intellectual Property owned by a Target Company. To the Target’s

Knowledge, none of the employees of any Target Company is obligated under any Contract, or subject to any Order, that would materially

interfere with the use of such employee’s reasonable efforts to promote the interests of the Target Companies, or that would materially

conflict with the business of any Target Company as presently conducted or contemplated to be conducted. Each Target Company has taken

commercially reasonable efforts and security measures designed to maintain the security of all material Owned Intellectual Property, including

measures designed to protect the secrecy and confidentiality of the material Target IP. All Persons who have participated in or contributed

to the creation or development of any material Owned Intellectual Property have executed written agreements pursuant to which all of such

Person’s right, title and interest in and to any such Owned Intellectual Property has been irrevocably assigned (by a present tense

assignment) to the Target Companies (or all such right, title, and interest vested in the Target Companies by operation of Law).

(vi) Each Target

Company is in all material respects in compliance with all licenses governing any open source Software that is incorporated (either directly

by any Target Company, or indirectly, by the incorporation of third party Software that itself incorporates open source Software) into,

used, intermingled, or bundled with any material Owned Intellectual Property. No open source Software is or has been included, incorporated

or embedded in, linked to, combined, made available or distributed with, or used in the development, operation, delivery or provision

of any Target Software in a manner that requires any Target Company to: (i) disclose, distribute, license or otherwise make available

to any Person (including the open source community) any source code to such Target Software; (ii) license any such Target Software or

other material Owned Intellectual Property for making modifications or derivative works; (iii) disclose, distribute, license or otherwise

make available to any Person any such Target Software or other material Owned Intellectual Property for no or nominal charge; or (iv)

grant a license to, or refrain from asserting or enforcing any of, its Patents (each of (i) – (iv), a “Copyleft Action”).

No Person other than a Target Company possesses, or has an actual or contingent right to access or possess, a copy in any form of any

source code for any Target Software and all such source code is in the applicable Target Company’s sole possession and has been

maintained as strictly confidential.

(vii) Except as

set forth on Section 3.3(n)(vii) of the Target Disclosure Letter, no government funding, nor any facilities of a university, college,

other educational institution, or similar institution, or research center, was used by any Target Company in the development of any Owned

Intellectual Property. No Governmental Authority has any (i) ownership interest or exclusive license in or to any material Owned Intellectual

Property, (ii) “unlimited rights” (as defined in 48 C.F.R. § 52.227-14 and in 48 C.F.R. § 252.227-7013(a)) in or

to any of the Software, or (iii) “march in rights” (pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 203) in or to any Patents constituting material

Owned Intellectual Property.

(viii) No Person

has obtained unauthorized access to information and data (including personally identifiable information) in the possession of a Target

Company or in their control, or otherwise held or processed on their behalf, nor has there been any loss, damage, disclosure, use, breach

of security, or other material compromise of the security, confidentiality or integrity of such information or data. No Target Company

has experienced any material information security incident that has compromised the integrity or availability of the information technology,

operational technology, or software applications the Target Companies own, operate, or outsource, or the information or data thereon.

No material written complaint relating to an improper use or disclosure of, or a breach in the security of, any such information or data

or relating to any information security-related incident has been received by a Target Company nor has a Target Company been required

by applicable law, regulation, or contract to notify in writing, any person or entity of any personal data or information security-related

incident. Each Target Company has complied in all material respects with all applicable Laws, Contract requirements and policies relating

to privacy, personal data protection, cybersecurity and the collection, processing and use of personal information. Except in each case

as set forth on Section 3.3(n)(viii) of the Target Disclosure Letter, each Target Company has implemented appropriate policies

and commercially reasonable security (a) regarding the collection, use, disclosure, retention, processing, transfer, confidentiality,

integrity, and availability of data (including personally identifiable information) and business proprietary or sensitive information,

in its possession or control, or held or processed on its behalf, and (b) regarding the integrity and availability of the information

technology, operational technology, and software applications the Target Company owns, operates, or outsources. The IT Assets do not contain

any material malware, viruses, malicious code, “worms,” “Trojan horses,” “back doors,” or other vulnerabilities,

or unauthorized tools or scripts that could reasonably be expected to adversely impact the confidentiality, integrity and availability

of the information technology and operational technology systems, and software applications. The IT Assets operate and perform as required

by the Target Companies for the operation of its business as currently conducted, except in each case as would not, individually or in

the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material impact on the Target Companies.

30

(ix) The Target

Companies (i) maintain a technical description of any neural networks used in or with any proprietary AI/ML that is sufficiently detailed

to reasonably skilled programmers to modify, debug, and improve such neural networks in the ordinary course of business; (ii) retain information

in human-readable form that explains (or could be used to explain) the decisions made or facilitated by any proprietary AI/ML, which can

readily be provided to regulators upon request; (iii) have materially complied with all applicable legal requirements and industry standards

applicable to any proprietary AI/ML (including the ethical or responsible use thereof); (iv) have not received (and are not subject to

or otherwise not aware of) any (A) complaint, claim, proceeding or litigation alleging that training data used in the development, training,

improvement or testing of any proprietary AI/ML Software was falsified, biased, untrustworthy or manipulated in an unethical or unscientific

way; (B) report, finding or impact assessment of any internal or external auditor, technology review committee, independent technology

consultant, whistle-blower, transparency or privacy advocate, labor union, journalist or academic that makes any such allegation in (A);

or (C) request from regulators or legislators concerning any proprietary AI/ML; (v) have not (1) used any AI/ML (including Generative

AI) to generate, create, or develop any Owned Intellectual Property; (2) included any Owned Intellectual Property in any prompts or inputs

into any AI/ML (including Generative AI); or (3) used any AI/ML (nor sold or offered for sale or distribution any AI product) either (x)

for any “Prohibited Artificial Intelligence Practices” (as described in Article 5 of the European Union’s Artificial Intelligence

Act); or (y) that is considered “high-risk” (as described in Article 5 of the European Union’s Artificial Intelligence Act).

None of the Target Companies has used any “scrapers,” “spiders,” “bots” or other automated Software

programs or processes to extract or collect information, data, or content from any social media network or any other third party online

source. Section 3.3(n)(ix) of the Target Disclosure Letter sets forth a true, complete, and accurate list of all third-party data

used to train, teach, or improve any AI/ML that is material to the development of any Owned Intellectual Property or the ongoing operation

or improvement of any Owned Intellectual Property (“Third-Party Datasets”). The Target Companies have complied with

all license terms applicable to, and obtained all necessary rights and paid all necessary payment required for, such Third-Party Datasets.

(x) The consummation

of any of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents will not result in the material breach, material modification, cancellation,

termination, suspension of, or acceleration of any payments with respect to, or release of source code because of (i) any Contract providing

for the license or other use of material Intellectual Property owned by a Target Company, or (ii) any Target IP License. Following the

closing of the Business Combination, the Target shall be permitted to exercise, directly or indirectly through its Subsidiaries, all of

the Target Companies’ rights under such Contracts or Target IP Licenses to the same extent that the Target Companies would have

been able to exercise had the transactions contemplated by this Agreement not occurred, without the payment of any additional amounts

or consideration other than ongoing fees, royalties or payments which the Target Companies would otherwise be required to pay in the absence

of such transactions.

(o) Taxes and Returns.

Except in each case as set forth on Section 3.3(o) of the Target Disclosure Letter:

(i) Each Target

Company (A) has or will have timely filed, or caused to be timely filed, all Income Tax and other material Tax Returns required to be

filed by it (taking into account all valid extensions of time to file), and all such Tax Returns are true, accurate and complete in all

material respects, and (B) has timely paid, collected, withheld or remitted, or caused to be timely paid, collected, withheld or remitted,

all Income Taxes and other material Taxes required to be paid, collected, withheld or remitted by it, whether or not such Taxes are shown

as due and payable on any Tax Return. The unpaid Taxes or Tax liabilities of the Target Companies (A) did not, as of the most recent fiscal

month end, materially exceed the reserve for Tax liability (rather than any reserve for deferred Taxes established to reflect timing differences

between book and Tax income) set forth on the Target Financials in accordance with U.S. GAAP and (B) will not materially exceed that reserve

as adjusted for the passage of time through the closing of the Business Combination in accordance with the past custom and practice of

the Target Companies in filing their Tax Returns.

31

(ii) There is

no Legal Proceeding currently pending or, to the Knowledge of the Target, threatened against a Target Company by a Governmental Authority

in a jurisdiction where the Target Company does not file any Tax Returns or a particular type of Tax Return or pays any Tax or a particular

type of Tax that it is or may be subject to such Tax or required to file such Tax Return in that jurisdiction.

(iii) There are

no audits, examinations, investigations or other proceedings pending, or to the Knowledge of the Target, threatened against any Target

Company in respect of any Tax, and no Target Company has been notified in writing of any proposed claims, deficiencies or assessments

against any of them. No Target Company is currently contesting any material Tax liability before any Governmental Authority.

any taxable period (or portion thereof) beginning after the closing date of the Business Combination, as a result of: (i) an installment

sale or open transaction disposition that occurred on or prior to the closing date of the Business Combination; (ii) any change in

method of accounting on or prior to the closing date of the Business Combination, including by reason of the application of Section 481

of the Code (or any analogous provision of state, local or foreign Law), or the use of an improper method of accounting on or prior to

the closing date of the Business Combination; (iii) any prepaid amounts received or deferred revenue realized or received on or prior

to the closing date of the Business Combination; (iv)  any intercompany transaction described in Treasury Regulations under Section 1502

of the Code (or any corresponding or similar provision of state, local or foreign Law); or (v) any “closing agreement”

or local Tax Law) or under any other applicable Tax Law, (ii) as a transferee or successor, or (iii) by Contract, indemnity or otherwise

(excluding customary commercial Contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business the primary purpose of which is not the sharing

of Taxes). No Target Company is a party to or bound by any Tax indemnity agreement, Tax sharing agreement or Tax allocation agreement

or similar agreement, arrangement or practice (excluding agreements solely among the Target Companies and customary commercial Contracts

entered into in the ordinary course of business the primary purpose of which is not the sharing of Taxes) with respect to Taxes (including

advance pricing agreement, closing agreement or other agreement relating to Taxes with any Governmental Authority) that will be binding

on any Target Company with respect to any period (or portion thereof) following the closing date of the Business Combination.

32

(x) No Target

Company has requested, or is it the subject of or bound by any private letter ruling, technical advice memorandum, closing agreement or

similar ruling, memorandum or agreement with any Governmental Authority with respect to any Taxes, nor is any such request pending or

The U.S. federal income tax classification of each of the Target’s Subsidiaries is as set forth on Section 3.3(o) of the

Target Disclosure Letter.

(xiv) No Target

Company has knowingly taken or failed to take (or agreed to take or not take) any action, nor is aware of any fact or circumstance, where

such action, failure to act, fact or circumstance would reasonably be expected to prevent or impede the Merger from qualifying for their

(p) Real Property.

(i) The Target

Companies do not own any real property.

(ii) Section

3.3(p)(ii) of the Target Disclosure Letter contains a true, correct and complete list as of the date of this Agreement of all premises

and of all current leases, lease guarantees, agreements and documents related thereto, including all amendments, terminations and modifications

thereof or waivers thereto (collectively, the “Target Real Property Leases”). To the Knowledge of the Target,

the Target Real Property Leases are valid, binding and enforceable in accordance with their terms and are in full force and effect, subject,

in each case, to the Enforceability Exceptions. No Target Company is in breach of or default under any Target Real Property Lease, and,

intangible assets and personal property of the Target Companies: (A) constitute all of the assets, rights and properties that are necessary

for the operation of the businesses of the Target Companies as currently conducted; and (B) have been maintained in accordance with generally

accepted industry practice, are in good working order and condition, except for ordinary wear and tear and as would not, individually

or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to be material to the business of the Target Companies, taken as a whole.

Companies are not and have never been a party to any collective bargaining agreement or other Contract covering any group of employees,

labor organization or other representative of any of the employees of such Target Company, and the Target has no Knowledge of any activities

(vi) To the Knowledge

of the Target, no Target Company has disposed of or released any Hazardous Material at, on or under any facility currently or formerly

owned or operated by any of the Target Companies or any third-party site, in each case in a manner that would be reasonably likely to

compliance with the terms of such insurance policies. Each such insurance policy is legal, valid and binding, and is enforceable and in

programs. In the past three (3) years, no Target Company has received any written notice from, or on behalf of, any insurance carrier

of business in the conditions of insurance, any refusal to issue an insurance policy or non-renewal of a policy.

in the past three (3) years. Each Target Company has reported to its insurers all claims and pending circumstances that would reasonably

be expected to result in a claim, except where such failure to report such a claim would not be reasonably likely to be material to the

Target Companies, taken as a whole. To the Knowledge of the Target, no event has occurred, and no condition or circumstance exists, that

would reasonably be expected to (with or without notice or lapse of time) give rise to or serve as a basis for the denial of any such

insurance claim. No Target Company has made any claim against an insurance policy as to which the insurer has denied coverage.

OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES

4.1 Transfer Restrictions.

(a) The Securities may only

be disposed of in compliance with state and federal securities laws. In connection with any transfer of Securities other than pursuant

to an effective registration statement or Rule 144, to the Company or to an Affiliate of the Purchaser or in connection with a pledge

as contemplated in Section 4.1(b), the Company may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel

selected by the transferor and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory

to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred Securities under the Securities Act.

As a condition of transfer, any such transferee shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and, if permitted pursuant

to the terms thereof, the Registration Rights Agreement and shall have the rights and obligations of the Purchaser under this Agreement

and the Registration Rights Agreement, if a party thereto.

38

(b) The Purchaser agrees

to the imprinting, so long as is required by this Section 4.1, of a legend on any of the Securities in the following form:

NEITHER THIS SECURITY NOR THE SECURITIES

INTO WHICH THIS SECURITY IS CONVERTIBLE HAS BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF

ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”),

AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT

TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE

WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THIS SECURITY AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION OF THIS SECURITY MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION

WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT WITH A REGISTERED BROKER-DEALER OR OTHER LOAN WITH A FINANCIAL INSTITUTION THAT IS AN “ACCREDITED

INVESTOR” AS DEFINED IN RULE 501(a) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR OTHER LOAN SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES.

The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Purchaser

may from time to time pledge pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement with a registered broker-dealer or grant a security interest in

some or all of the Securities to a financial institution that is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under

the Securities Act and who agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement and, if required under the terms of such arrangement,

the Purchaser may transfer pledged or secured Securities to the pledgees or secured parties; provided, however, that, as a prerequisite

to such pledge, the Purchaser shall (x) provide notice to the Company of such pledge or transfer at least five (5) Business Days prior

thereto and (y) cause to be delivered to the Company customary legal opinions of legal counsel of the pledgee, secured party and pledgor

as shall be reasonably requested by the Company in connection therewith. Thereafter, at the Purchaser’s expense, the Company will

execute and deliver such reasonable documentation as a pledgee or secured party of Securities may reasonably request in connection with

a pledge or transfer of the Securities, including, if the Securities are subject to registration pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement,

the preparation and filing of any required prospectus supplement under Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act or other applicable provision

of the Securities Act to appropriately amend the list of selling securityholders thereunder.

(c) Certificates (or reasonable

evidence of issuance by book entry, as applicable) evidencing the Underlying Shares shall not contain any legend (including the legend

set forth in Section 4.1(b) hereof): (i) while a registration statement (including the Registration Statement) covering the resale

of such security is effective under the Securities Act, (ii) following any sale of such Underlying Shares pursuant to Rule 144 or (iii)

as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Designation. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its counsel to

issue a legal opinion to the Transfer Agent or the Purchaser promptly after the Effective Date if required by the Transfer Agent to effect

the removal of the legend hereunder or if requested by the Purchaser, respectively, in each case, if the proposed sale is to be made pursuant

to an effective registration statement or subject to an exemption from registration under the federal securities laws. If all or any shares

of Preferred Stock are converted or any portion of a Warrant is exercised at a time when there is an effective registration statement

to cover the resale of the Underlying Shares, or if such Underlying Shares may be sold under Rule 144 and the Company is then in compliance

with the current public information required under Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable), or if the Underlying Shares may

be sold under Rule 144 without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information required under

required under Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable) as to such Underlying Shares and without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions

or if such legend is not otherwise required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and

pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission) or as provided in the Certificate of Designation or Warrants, then such Underlying

Shares shall be issued free of all legends. The Company agrees that following the Effective Date or at such time as such legend is no

longer required under this Section 4.1(c), it will, no later than the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement

Period (as defined below) following the delivery by a Purchaser to the Company or the Transfer Agent of a certificate (or reasonable evidence

of issuance by book entry, as applicable) representing Underlying Shares, as applicable, issued with a restrictive legend, deliver or

cause to be delivered to the Purchaser a certificate (or reasonable evidence of issuance by book entry, as applicable) representing such

shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends. The Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions

to the Transfer Agent that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 4.1. Certificates for Underlying Shares

subject to legend removal hereunder shall be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Purchaser by crediting the account of the Purchaser’s

prime broker with the Depository Trust Company System as directed by the Purchaser. As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period”

means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary Trading Market with respect

to the Common Stock as in effect on the date of delivery of a certificate (or reasonable evidence of issuance by book entry, as applicable)

representing Underlying Shares, as applicable, issued with a restrictive legend.

39

(d) The Purchaser agrees

with the Company that the Purchaser will sell any Securities pursuant to either the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including

any applicable prospectus delivery requirements, or an exemption therefrom, and that if Securities are sold pursuant to a Registration

Statement, they will be sold in compliance with the plan of distribution set forth therein, and acknowledges that the removal of the restrictive

legend from certificates (or reasonable evidence of issuance by book entry, as applicable) representing Securities as set forth in this

Section 4.1 is predicated upon the Company’s reliance upon this understanding.

4.2 Acknowledgment of Dilution.

The Company acknowledges that the issuance of the Securities may result in dilution of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, which dilution

may be substantial under certain market conditions. The Company further acknowledges that its obligations under the Transaction Documents,

including, without limitation, its obligation to issue the Underlying Shares pursuant to the Transaction Documents, are unconditional

and absolute and not subject to any right of set off, counterclaim, delay or reduction, regardless of the effect of any such dilution

or any claim the Company may have against the Purchaser and regardless of the dilutive effect that such issuance may have on the ownership

of the other stockholders of the Company.

4.3 Furnishing of Information; Public Information.

Until the time that the Purchaser does not own any Securities, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the registration

of the Common Stock under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act and to timely file all reports required to be filed by the Company

after the date hereof pursuant to the Exchange Act even if the Company is not then subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange

Act.

4.4 Integration. The Company shall

not sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities

Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities

Act of the sale of the Securities or that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities for purposes of the rules and regulations

of any Trading Market such that it would require stockholder approval prior to the closing of such other transaction unless stockholder

approval is obtained before the closing of such subsequent transaction.

4.5 Conversion and Exercise Procedures.

Each of the form of Notice of Exercise included in the Warrants and the form of Notice of Conversion included in the Certificate of Designation

set forth the totality of the procedures required of the Purchaser in order to exercise the Warrants or convert its Preferred Stock. Without

limiting the preceding sentences, no ink-original Notice of Exercise or Notice of Conversion shall be required, nor shall any medallion

guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise or Notice of Conversion form be required in order to

exercise the Warrants or convert its Preferred Stock. No additional legal opinion, other information or instructions shall be required

of the Purchaser to exercise its Warrants or convert its Preferred Stock. The Company shall honor exercises of the Purchaser’s Warrants

and conversions of the Purchaser’s Preferred Stock and shall deliver Underlying Shares in accordance with the terms, conditions

and time periods set forth in the Transaction Documents.

4.6 Securities Laws Disclosure; Publicity.

Neither the Company nor the Target shall publicly disclose the name of the Purchaser, or include the name of the Purchaser in any filing

with the Commission or any regulatory agency or Trading Market, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser (not to be unreasonably

withheld, delayed or conditioned), except (a) as required by federal securities law or requested by the staff of the Commission

in connection with (i) any filings in connection with the Business Combination, (ii) any registration statement contemplated by the Registration

Rights Agreement and (iii) the filing of final Transaction Documents with the Commission and (b) to the extent such disclosure is required

by law or Trading Market regulations, in which case the Company shall provide the Purchaser with prior notice of such disclosure permitted

under this clause (b).

40

4.7 Stockholder Rights Plan. No

claim will be made or enforced by the Company or, with the consent of the Company, any other Person, that exclusively as a result of the

transactions contemplated by this Agreement the Purchaser is an “Acquiring Person” under any control share acquisition,

business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement) or similar anti-takeover plan or arrangement in

effect or hereafter adopted by the Company, or that the Purchaser could be deemed to trigger the provisions of any such plan or arrangement,

by virtue of receiving Securities under the Transaction Documents.

4.8 Non-Public Information. The

Company and the Target covenant and agree that neither they, nor any other Person acting on their behalf will provide the Purchaser or

its agents or counsel with any information that constitutes, or the Company and the Target reasonably believe constitutes, material non-public

information, unless prior thereto the Purchaser shall have consented to the receipt of such information and agreed with the Company and

the Target to keep such information confidential. To the extent that the Company, the Target or any of their respective officers, director,

agents, employees or Affiliates delivers any material, non-public information to the Purchaser without the Purchaser’s consent,

the Company and the Target hereby covenant and agree that the Purchaser shall not have any duty of trust or confidentiality to the Company,

the Target or any of their respective officers, directors, agents, employees or Affiliates, or a duty to the Company, the Target or any

of their respective officers, directors, agents, employees or Affiliates not to trade while aware of, such material, non-public information,

provided that the Purchaser shall remain subject to applicable law. To the extent that any notice provided pursuant to any Transaction

Document constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or the Target, the Company shall if reasonably

practicable simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K. The Company and the Target understand

and confirm that the Purchaser shall be relying on the foregoing covenants in effecting transactions in securities of the Company.

4.9 Use of Proceeds. The Company

shall use the net proceeds from the sale of the Securities hereunder for general corporate and working capital purposes, in the Company’s

exclusive discretion.

4.10 Indemnification.

(a) Subject to the provisions

of this Section 4.10, the Company will indemnify and hold each Purchaser Party harmless from any and all Losses that any such Purchaser

Party may suffer or incur as a result of or relating to any breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements

made by the Company in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents (unless such Loss is primarily based upon a material breach

of such Purchaser Party’s representations, warranties or covenants under the Transaction Documents or any agreements or understandings

such Purchaser Party may have with any such stockholder or any violations by such Purchaser Party of state or federal securities laws

or any conduct by such Purchaser Party which is finally judicially determined to constitute fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct).

of this Section 4.10, the Target will indemnify and hold each Purchaser Party, harmless from any and all Losses that any such Purchaser

Party may suffer or incur as a result of or relating to any breach of any of the representations and warranties of the Target Companies

found exclusively in Section 3.3, covenants or agreements made by the Target in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents

(unless such Loss is primarily based upon a material breach of such Purchaser Party’s representations, warranties or covenants under

the Transaction Documents or any agreements or understandings such Purchaser Party may have with any such stockholder or any violations

by such Purchaser Party of state or federal securities laws or any conduct by such Purchaser Party which is finally judicially determined

to constitute fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct).

(c) Subject to the provisions

of this Section 4.10, the Purchaser will, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold (i) each Company Party and (ii) each Target

Party, harmless from any and all Losses that any such Company party or Target Party (as applicable) may suffer or incur as a result of

or relating to any breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by such Purchaser in this Agreement

or in the other Transaction Documents (unless such Loss is primarily based upon a material breach of such Company Party’s or Target

Party’s (as applicable) representations, warranties or covenants under the Transaction Documents or any agreements or understandings

such Company Party or Target Party may have with any such stockholder or any violations by such Company Party or Target Party (as applicable)

of state or federal securities laws or any conduct by such Company Party or Target Party (as applicable) which is finally judicially determined

41

(d) If any Action or Proceeding

shall be brought against any Person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Agreement, such Person (the “Indemnified

Party”) shall promptly notify the Person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “Indemnifying Party”)

in writing, but the omission to notify such Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may

have to any Indemnified Party under this Section 4.10 unless, and only to the extent that, such omission results in the forfeiture

of substantive rights or defenses by the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense thereof

with counsel of its own choosing reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party. Any Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ

separate counsel in any such Action or Proceeding and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall

be at the expense of such Indemnified Party except to the extent that (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the

Indemnifying Party in writing, (ii) the Indemnifying Party has failed after a reasonable period of time to assume such defense and to

employ counsel or (iii) in such Action or Proceeding there is, in the reasonable opinion of counsel, a material conflict on any material

issue between the position of the Indemnifying Party and the position of such Indemnified Party, in which case the Indemnifying Party

shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of no more than one such separate counsel. The Indemnifying Party 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 from and against any loss or liability

by reason of such settlement or judgment. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect

any settlement of any pending or threatened Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity

could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified

Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding.

4.11 Reservation and Listing of Securities.

(a) Commencing on the Closing

Date, the Company shall maintain a reserve of the Required Minimum from its duly authorized shares of Common Stock for issuance pursuant

to the Transaction Documents in such amount as may then be required to fulfill its obligations in full under the Transaction Documents;

provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to reserve shares in excess of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock

that may then be legally issued pursuant to the Transaction Documents, after giving effect to any applicable beneficial ownership limitations,

exchange caps (including the 9.99% rule, if applicable), or other binding conversion or exercise restrictions set forth therein.

(b) If, on any date following

the Closing Date, the number of authorized but unissued (and otherwise unreserved) shares of Common Stock is less than 100% of (i) the

Required Minimum on such date, minus (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock previously issued pursuant to the Transaction Documents,

then the Board of Directors shall use commercially reasonable efforts to amend the Company’s certificate or articles of incorporation

to increase the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to at least the Required Minimum at such time (minus the number

of shares of Common Stock previously issued pursuant to the Transaction Documents), as soon as possible and in any event not later than

the 75th day after such date, provided that the Company will not be required

at any time to authorize a number of shares of Common Stock greater than the maximum remaining number of shares of Common Stock that could

possibly be issued after such time pursuant to the Transaction Documents. The Company’s obligation under this Section shall be limited

to using commercially reasonable efforts to seek such approval, and failure to obtain such approval shall not constitute an event of default

under any Transaction Document, shall not trigger any automatic acceleration, mandatory redemption, penalty pricing adjustment, or similar

remedy, and shall not impose any liability on the Company or its directors.

(c) The Company shall, as

applicable: (i) promptly after the Closing Date and in connection with the registration with the Commission of the Underlying Shares,

in the manner required by the principal Trading Market, prepare and file with such Trading Market an additional shares listing application

covering a number of shares of Common Stock at least equal to the Required Minimum on the date of such application, (ii) take all steps

reasonably necessary to cause such shares of Common Stock to be approved for listing or quotation on such Trading Market as soon as practicable

thereafter and to provide to the Purchaser evidence of such listing or quotation and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain

the listing or quotation of such Common Stock on any date at least equal to the Required Minimum on such date on such Trading Market or

another Trading Market. The Company agrees to maintain the eligibility of the Common Stock for electronic transfer through the Depository

Trust Company or another established clearing corporation, including, without limitation, by timely payment of fees to the Depository

Trust Company or such other established clearing corporation in connection with such electronic transfer.

42

4.12 Certain Transactions and Confidentiality.

The Purchaser covenants that neither it, nor any Affiliate acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will execute

any purchases or sales of any of the Company’s securities during the period commencing with the execution of this Agreement and

ending at the Cleanse Time. The Purchaser covenants that until such time as the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly

disclosed by the Company (the “Cleanse Time”), the Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of the existence and

terms of this transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the

Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that, (i) the Purchaser does not make any representation, warranty or covenant hereby that it

will not engage in effecting transactions in any securities of the Company after the Cleanse Time and (ii) the Purchaser shall not be

restricted or prohibited from effecting any transactions in any securities of the Company in accordance with applicable securities laws

from and after the Cleanse Time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Purchaser is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate

portfolio managers manage separate portions of the Purchaser’s assets and the portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the

investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of the Purchaser’s assets, the covenant set forth above

shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase

the Securities covered by this Agreement.

4.13 Blue Sky Filings. The Company

shall take such action as the Company shall reasonably determine is necessary in order to obtain an exemption for, or to qualify the Securities

for, sale to the Purchaser at the Closing under applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States.

4.14 No-short Covenant.

(a) From the date hereof

until the date that is twelve (12) months following the Closing Date (the “Restricted Period”), neither the Purchaser

nor any of its Controlled Affiliates, nor any Person acting on its or their behalf or pursuant to any understanding with any of the foregoing,

shall, directly or indirectly, engage in any transaction that establishes or increases a Net Short Position with respect to the Company’s

Common Stock, including through Short Sales, derivatives, swaps or other synthetic arrangements (whether settled in cash or by delivery)

designed to, or that reasonably could be expected to, provide a short economic exposure to the Common Stock.

(b) For the avoidance of

doubt, (i) nothing in this Section 4.14 prohibit (A) bona fide market-neutral or delta-neutral hedging transactions that do not establish

or increase a Net Short Position or (B) customary prime brokerage pledges that do not involve sales or short positions; and (ii) compliance

with this Section 4.14 shall be measured on a consolidated basis across the Purchaser and its Controlled Affiliates.

4.15 Exempt Issuance Carve-Outs; Conforming

Amendments to Certificate of Designation and Warrants.

(a) For purposes of the conversion

price and exercise price “Dilutive Issuance” provisions in the Certificate of Designation and the Warrants, “Exempt

Issuance” shall mean any issuance of Common Stock or Common Stock options or equivalents by the Company after Closing that falls

within one or more of the following categories: (i) issuances pursuant to employee, director or consultant equity incentive plans approved

by the Board of Directors (including inducement grants), and issuances upon exercise, vesting, conversion or settlement of any such awards;

(ii) issuances to strategic or commercial partners, suppliers or customers as bona fide consideration in connection with commercial collaborations,

joint development, licensing, distribution, supply or similar strategic transactions; (iii) issuances to governmental, multilateral or

development finance institutions (including export credit agencies) in connection with government-backed or development finance programs;

(iv) equity issued at the project or joint venture level (including to project partners or JV participants) in connection with bona fide

project financing, formation or restructuring transactions, provided that (a) such issuances are made directly to a strategic partner

in connection with a written agreement pursuant to which the equity recipient is obligated to provide material services, resources, or

funding directly to or for the benefit of the applicable project or joint venture, (b) such issuances are not made for the primary purpose

of raising general working capital or investment funds for the Company, and (c) the primary economic benefit of such issuances accrue

at the project or joint venture level rather than at the corporate level; (v) issuances in connection with debt financings, equipment

financings or capital leases, including equity “kickers” thereunder that are not priced below the then-current Conversion

Price or Exercise Price, provided that such issuances shall remain subject to the consent requirements set forth in Section 4(c) of the

Certificate of Designation; (vi) issuances in connection with acquisition earn-outs; and (vii) any issuance approved in writing by the

Required Holders under the Certificate of Designation and the comparable “Required Holders” (or equivalent) under the Warrants.

For the avoidance of doubt, issuances pursuant to at-the-market programs are not Exempt Issuances and shall be treated as Dilutive Issuances

as set forth in Section 4.15(b) of this Agreement, and, accordingly, any such issuance shall remain subject to the anti-dilution adjustment

provisions set forth in the Certificate of Designation and the Warrant, including the VWAP-based Exercise Price reset mechanism described

therein.

43

(b) The Company shall ensure,

as a condition to Closing, that the Certificate of Designation and the Warrants are revised to (x) include the Exempt Issuance definition

above, (y) preserve the $500,000 aggregate consideration threshold for triggering any “Dilutive Issuance” reset by excluding

Exempt Issuances from such threshold, and (z) retain the Floor Price construct already reflected in the Transaction Documents. For the

avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 4.15 modifies any of the price-based reset mechanics other than to exclude Exempt Issuances

from “Dilutive Issuance” triggers.

4.16 Beneficial Ownership Limitation; Company-Side

Notice.

(a) The parties acknowledge

that the Certificate of Designation and the Warrants will include a Beneficial Ownership Limitation that is holder-elected and adjustable,

with any increase in such limitation becoming effective only after 61 days’ prior notice from the applicable holder.

(b) If any conversion or

exercise would result in such holder’s beneficial ownership (together with its Affiliates and attribution parties under Section 13(d)

of the Exchange Act) exceeding 9.9% of the then-outstanding Common Stock (on a post-issuance basis), the holder shall provide the Company

with at least two (2) Trading Days’ advance written notice of such conversion or exercise (which notice shall not limit or delay

the holder’s right to convert or exercise after such two (2) Trading Day period).

4.17 Governance Confirmation. Neither

this Agreement nor any other Transaction Document confers upon the Purchaser any contractual right to designate or appoint any member

of the Board of Directors or any board observer. Voting rights of the Securities are limited to voting on an as-converted basis as set

forth in the Certificate of Designation, and the protective provisions applicable to the Preferred Stock are limited to customary class

protections set forth in the Certificate of Designation (including amendments adverse to such class, the issuance of senior or pari passu

securities, and the payment of junior dividends or redemptions prior to satisfaction of obligations to the Preferred).

4.18 No Group Status Solely by Agreement.

The parties agree that the Purchaser’s execution and performance of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, and any substantially

similar agreements executed by other purchasers, do not by themselves constitute the Purchaser and any other purchaser as a “group”

within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act.

4.19 Short Selling Restriction.

Each Purchaser agrees that, from the Closing Date until the date that is twelve (12) months thereafter, neither it nor any of its Affiliates

shall, directly or indirectly, establish or maintain any New Short Position in the Common Stock; provided that bona fide market-neutral

hedging activities that do not result in a net directional short exposure shall be permitted.

4.20 Capital Raising Permitted.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Transaction Documents, the Company shall have the unrestricted right, without any

consent of any Purchaser, to issue any equity in connection with any follow-on public or private offering, subordinated or junior debt

(but not, for the avoidance of doubt, senior secured or senior unsecured Indebtedness), or equity-linked securities, and the provisions

of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall not operate to restrict or prohibit any such issuance, it being understood

that any applicable anti-dilution adjustments shall be purely economic in nature.

MISCELLANEOUS

5.1 Termination. This Agreement

shall terminate and be void and of no further force and effect, and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate

without any further liability on the part of any party in respect hereof, upon the earlier to occur of (a) the mutual written agreement

of the parties hereto to terminate this Agreement, or (b) the termination (for any reason) of the Business Combination Agreement by any

party to the same. Additionally, (i) the Company may terminate this Agreement with respect to the Purchaser if any of the conditions set

forth in Section 2.3(a) applicable to the Purchaser shall have become incapable of fulfillment, and shall not have been waived

by the Company; and (ii) the Purchaser may terminate this Agreement if (X) any of the conditions set forth in Section 2.3(b) shall

have become incapable of fulfillment, and shall not have been waived by the Purchaser or (Y) the Closing shall not have occurred on or

prior to the date on which the Target is permitted to terminate the Business Combination Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(d) of the

Business Combination Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein will relieve any party from liability for any intentional

breach hereof prior to the time of termination, and each party will be entitled to any remedies at law or in equity to recover losses,

liabilities or damages arising from such intentional breach; provided, that in the event that the Business

Combination Agreement is ever terminated by the Company and/or the Target for any reason, the Purchaser hereby agrees not to indirectly

assert a claim against the Target by funding the Company or any other party to assert any such claim.

5.2 Fees and Expenses. Except as

expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents, each party shall pay the fees and expenses of its advisers, counsel, accountants and

other experts, if any, and all other expenses incurred by such party incident to the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and

performance of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees (including, without limitation,

any fees required for same-day processing of any instruction letter delivered by the Company and any conversion notice delivered by a

Purchaser), stamp taxes and other Taxes and duties levied in connection with the delivery of any Securities to the Purchaser.

5.3 Entire Agreement. The Transaction

Documents, together with the exhibits and schedules thereto, contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject

matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, with respect to such matters, which

the parties acknowledge have been merged into such documents, exhibits and schedules.

5.4 Notices. Any and all notices

or other communications or deliveries required or permitted to be provided hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and

effective on the earliest of: (a) the time of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via email at the e-mail address

as set forth on the signature pages attached hereto at or prior to 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on a Trading Day, (b) the next Trading

Day after the time of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via email attachment at the e-mail address as set forth

Day, (c) the second (2nd) Trading Day following the date of mailing, if sent by U.S. nationally

recognized overnight courier service or (d) upon actual receipt by the party to whom such notice is required to be given. The address

for such notices and communications shall be as set forth on the signature pages attached hereto.

5.5 Amendments; Waivers. No provision

of this Agreement may be waived, modified, supplemented or amended except in a written instrument signed, in the case of an amendment,

by the Company, the Target and the Purchaser or, in the case of a waiver, by the Company, the Target or the Purchaser, as the case may

be, dependent on the party against whom enforcement of any such waived provision is sought. No waiver of any default with respect to any

provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent

default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of any party to exercise

any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right.

5.6 Headings. The headings herein

are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions

hereof.

5.7 Successors and Assigns. This

Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns. Neither the Company

nor the Target may assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other and the

Purchaser (other than by merger). The Purchaser may assign any or all of its rights under this Agreement to any Person to whom the Purchaser

assigns or transfers any Securities, provided that such transferee agrees in writing to be bound, with respect to the transferred Securities,

by the provisions of the Transaction Documents that apply to the “Purchaser.”

45

5.8 No Third-Party Beneficiaries.

The Placement Agents shall be the third-party beneficiaries of the representations and warranties of the Purchasers set forth in Sections

3.2(v), (w) and (x) of this Agreement. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors

and permitted assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person, except as otherwise

set forth in Section 4.10 and this Section 5.8.

5.9 Governing Law. All questions

concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of the Transaction Documents shall be governed by and construed

and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.

Each party agrees that all legal Proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated

by this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents (other than the Certificate of Designation) (whether brought against a party hereto

or its respective Affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively

in the state and federal courts sitting in the State of Delaware. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction

of the state and federal courts sitting in the State of Delaware for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith

or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents,

other than the Certificate of Designation), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any Action or Proceeding, any claim

that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such Action or Proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient

venue for such Proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any

such Action or Proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery)

to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient

service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any

other manner permitted by law. If any party shall commence an Action or Proceeding to enforce any provisions of the Transaction Documents,

then, in addition to the obligations of the parties under Section 4.10, the prevailing party in such Action or Proceeding shall

be reimbursed by the non-prevailing party for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation,

preparation and prosecution of such Action or Proceeding.

5.10 Survival. The representations

and warranties contained in Section 3.1, Section 3.2 and Section 3.3 herein shall survive the Closing and the delivery

of the Securities.

5.11 Execution. This Agreement may

be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become

effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to each other party, it being understood that the parties need

not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file,

such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with

the same force and effect as if such “.pdf” signature page were an original thereof.

5.12 Severability. If any term,

provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable,

the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in

no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to find and employ

an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction.

It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions,

covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.

5.13 Rescission and Withdrawal Right.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) any of the other Transaction Documents,

whenever the Purchaser exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction Document and the Company does not timely perform

its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then the Purchaser may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time

to time upon written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future

actions and rights; provided, however, that, in the case of (x) a rescission of a conversion of the Purchaser’s

Preferred Stock, the Purchaser shall be required to return any shares of Common Stock subject to any such rescinded conversion or (y)

a recission of an exercise of a Warrant, the Purchaser shall be required to return any shares of Common Stock subject to any exercise

notice concurrently with the return to the Purchaser of the aggregate exercise price paid to the Company for such shares and the restoration

of the Purchaser’s right to acquire such shares pursuant to the Purchaser’s Warrant (including, issuance of a replacement

warrant certificate evidencing such restored right).

46

5.14 Replacement of Securities.

If any certificate or instrument evidencing any Securities is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to

be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation thereof (in the case of mutilation), or in lieu of and substitution therefor,

a new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction.

The applicant for a new certificate or instrument under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs (including

customary indemnity) associated with the issuance of such replacement Securities.

5.15 Remedies. In addition to being

entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, the Purchaser and the Company will be

entitled to specific performance under the Transaction Documents. The parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation

for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations contained in the Transaction Documents and hereby agree to waive and not

to assert in any Action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate. For the avoidance

of doubt, Section 4.10 shall be the exclusive remedy for any Losses resulting from a breach of any of the representations and warranties

contained in ARTICLE 3 of this Agreement, in each case exclusively to the extent such Losses arise during the survival period of such

representations and warranties pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

5.16 Payment Set Aside. To the extent

that the Company makes a payment or payments to the Purchaser pursuant to any Transaction Document or the Purchaser enforces or exercises

its rights thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently

invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid

or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy

law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part

thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made

or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

5.17 Usury. To the extent it may

lawfully do so, the Company hereby agrees not to insist upon or plead or in any manner whatsoever claim, and will resist any and all efforts

to be compelled to take the benefit or advantage of, usury laws wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, in connection

with any Action or Proceeding that may be brought by the Purchaser in order to enforce any right or remedy under any Transaction Document.

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in any Transaction Document, it is expressly agreed and provided that the total

liability of the Company under the Transaction Documents for payments in the nature of interest shall not exceed the maximum lawful rate

authorized under applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”), and, without limiting the foregoing, in no event shall any rate

of interest or default interest, or both of them, when aggregated with any other sums in the nature of interest that the Company may be

obligated to pay under the Transaction Documents exceed such Maximum Rate. It is agreed that if the maximum contract rate of interest

allowed by law and applicable to the Transaction Documents is increased or decreased by statute or any official governmental action subsequent

to the date hereof, the new maximum contract rate of interest allowed by law will be the Maximum Rate applicable to the Transaction Documents

from the effective date thereof forward, unless such application is precluded by applicable law. If under any circumstances whatsoever,

interest in excess of the Maximum Rate is paid by the Company to the Purchaser with respect to Indebtedness evidenced by the Transaction

Documents, such excess shall be applied by the Purchaser to the unpaid principal balance of any such Indebtedness or be refunded to the

Company, the manner of handling such excess to be at the Purchaser’s election.

5.18 Liquidated Damages. The Company’s

obligations to pay any partial liquidated damages or other amounts owing under the Transaction Documents is a continuing obligation of

the Company and shall not terminate until all unpaid partial liquidated damages and other amounts have been paid notwithstanding the fact

that the instrument or security pursuant to which such partial liquidated damages or other amounts are due and payable shall have been

canceled.

47

5.19 Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc.

If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a Business

Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Business Day.

5.20 Construction. The parties agree

that each of them and/or their respective counsel have reviewed and had an opportunity to revise the Transaction Documents and, therefore,

the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed

in the interpretation of the Transaction Documents or any amendments thereto. In addition, each and every reference to share prices and

shares of Common Stock in any Transaction Document shall be subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends,

stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Common Stock that occur after the date of this Agreement. In this Agreement,

unless the context otherwise requires: (i) whenever required by the context, any pronoun used in this Agreement shall include the corresponding

masculine, feminine or neuter forms, and the singular form of nouns, pronouns and verbs shall include the plural and vice versa; (ii)

“including” (and with correlative meaning “include”) means including without limiting the generality of any description

preceding or succeeding such term and shall be deemed in each case to be followed by the words “without limitation”; and (iii)

the words “herein”, “hereto” and “hereby” and other words of similar import in this Agreement shall

be deemed in each case to refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular portion of this Agreement.

5.21 Trust Account Waiver. The Purchaser

hereby acknowledges that, as described in the Company’s prospectus relating to its initial public offering (the “IPO”)

dated December 9, 2021 available at www.sec.gov, the Company has established a trust account (the “Trust Account”)

containing the proceeds of the IPO and from certain private placements occurring simultaneously with the IPO (including interest accrued

from time to time thereon) for the benefit of the Company, its public shareholders and certain other parties. For and in consideration

of the Company entering into this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby

acknowledged, the Purchaser on behalf of itself and each of its affiliates and subsidiaries, and each of its and their employees, agents,

representatives and any other person or entity acting on its and their behalf hereby (a) agrees that it does not now and shall not at

any time hereafter have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any assets held in the Trust Account, and shall not make

any claim against the Trust Account, arising out or as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to this Agreement, and regardless

of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability (any and all such claims are collectively

referred to hereafter as the “Released Claims”), (b) irrevocably waives any Released Claims that it may have against

the Trust Account now or in the future as a result of, or arising out of, this Agreement, and (c) agrees that it will not seek recourse

against the Trust Account as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to this Agreement; provided, however,

that nothing in this Section 5.21 shall be deemed to limit the Purchaser’s right to distributions from the Trust Account

in accordance with the Company’s memorandum and articles of association in respect of any redemptions by the Purchaser in respect

of shares of Common Stock acquired by any means other than pursuant to this Agreement.

5.22 Conforming Amendments; Precedence.

In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and any of Exhibits A, C or D as in effect at

Closing, the terms of this Agreement shall control as among the parties hereto and the Company shall promptly amend such exhibit(s) to

eliminate such conflict.

5.23 NO LIABILITY UPON GOOD FAITH TERMINATION.

OTHER THAN WITH RESPECT TO ANY LIABILITIES ARISING PURSUANT TO SECTION 4.10 AND/OR SECTION 5.2 ABOVE, NONE OF THE COMPANY,

TARGET, ANY OF THEIR AFFILIATES, OR ANY OTHER PARTY TO THE BUSINESS COMBINATION AGREEMENT, OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS,

EQUITYHOLDERS, MANAGERS, MEMBERS, ADVISORS OR LEGAL COUNSEL SHALL HAVE ANY LIABILITY (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, AS A RESULT OF POTENTIAL

LOST PROFITS AND OPPORTUNITIES) TO THE PURCHASER AS A RESULT OF THE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT AS A RESULT OF THE GOOD FAITH TERMINATION

OF THE BUSINESS COMBINATION AGREEMENT BECAUSE OF A FAILURE OF A CLOSING CONDITION TO BE MET (SOLELY TO THE EXTENT SUCH FAILURE IS OUTSIDE

OF THE CONTROL OF THE TARGET OR THE COMPANY, BUT REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE BUSINESS COMBINATION AGREEMENT IS TERMINATED BY THE COMPANY

OR TARGET).

5.24 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. IN ANY ACTION,

SUIT, OR PROCEEDING IN ANY JURISDICTION BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY, THE PARTIES EACH KNOWINGLY AND INTENTIONALLY, TO

THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, HEREBY ABSOLUTELY, UNCONDITIONALLY, IRREVOCABLY AND EXPRESSLY WAIVES FOREVER TRIAL BY

JURY.

Section 3.4, file with the Commission within forty-five (45) calendar days following the Closing Date (the “Filing Deadline”)

a Registration Statement for a Shelf Registration on Form S-1 (the “Form S-1 Shelf”) or, if the Issuer is eligible

to use a Registration Statement on Form S-3, a Shelf Registration on Form S-3 (the “Form S-3 Shelf”), in each

case, covering the resale of all Registrable Securities (determined as of two (2) Business Days prior to such filing and assuming that

(i) all shares of Preferred Stock are converted into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price equal to the Conversion Price then in

effect, taking into account PIK dividends for at least three years from the date of such filing, and (ii) all Warrants are

exercised in full at an exercise price equal to the Exercise Price then in effect) on a delayed or continuous basis (such initial Registration

Statement, the “Initial Registration Statement”). The Issuer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have such Shelf

declared effective as soon as reasonably practicable after the filing thereof, but in no event later than (a) the ninetieth (90th)

calendar day following the Closing Date (or the one hundred twentieth (120th) calendar day following the Closing Date if the Commission

notifies the Issuer that it will “review” the Registration Statement) (the “Effectiveness Deadline”)

or (b) the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date the Issuer is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission

that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review. Such Shelf shall provide

for the resale of the Registrable Securities included therein pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and

requested by, any Holder named therein. Subject to Sections 2.1.3 and 3.4, the Issuer shall maintain a Shelf in accordance

with the terms hereof, and shall prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and supplements

as may be necessary to keep a Shelf continuously effective, available for use to permit the Holders named therein to sell their Registrable

Securities included therein and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until such time as there are no longer any Registrable

Securities. In the event the Issuer files a Form S-1 Shelf, the Issuer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to convert the Form

S-1 Shelf (and any Subsequent Shelf Registration) to a Form S-3 Shelf as soon as reasonably practicable after the Issuer is eligible to

use Form S-3.

5

2.1.2 Subsequent Shelf Registration. If any

Shelf ceases to be effective under the Securities Act for any reason at any time while Registrable Securities are still outstanding, the

Issuer shall, subject to Section 3.4, use its commercially reasonable efforts to, as promptly as is reasonably practicable, cause

such Shelf to again become effective under the Securities Act (including using its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the prompt

withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf), and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to, as promptly

as is reasonably practicable, amend such Shelf in a manner reasonably expected to result in the withdrawal of any order suspending the

effectiveness of such Shelf or file an additional registration statement as a Shelf Registration (a “Subsequent Shelf Registration”)

registering the resale of all Registrable Securities (determined as of two (2) Business Days prior to such filing and assuming that (i)

all shares of Preferred Stock are converted into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price equal to the Conversion Price then in effect,

taking into account PIK dividends for at least three years from the date of such filing, and (ii) all Warrants are exercised

in full at an exercise price equal to the Exercise Price then in effect), and pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally

available to, and requested by, any Holder named therein. If a Subsequent Shelf Registration is filed, the Issuer shall use its commercially

reasonable efforts to (i) cause such Subsequent Shelf Registration to become effective under the Securities Act as promptly as is reasonably

practicable after the filing thereof (it being agreed that the Subsequent Shelf Registration shall be an automatic shelf registration

statement (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act) if the Issuer is a well-known seasoned issuer (as defined in Rule

405 promulgated under the Securities Act) at the most recent applicable eligibility determination date) and (ii) keep such Subsequent

Shelf Registration continuously effective, available for use to permit the Holders named therein to sell their Registrable Securities

included therein and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until such time as there are no longer any Registrable Securities.

Any such Subsequent Shelf Registration shall be on Form S-3 to the extent that the Issuer is eligible to use such form. Otherwise, such

Subsequent Shelf Registration shall be on another appropriate form.

2.1.3 New Registrable Securities. Subject

to Section 3.4, in the event that any Holder holds Registrable Securities that are not registered for resale on a delayed or continuous

basis, the Issuer shall, upon the written request of such Holder, promptly use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the resale

of such Registrable Securities to be covered by either, at the Issuer’s option, any then-available Shelf (including by means of

a post-effective amendment) or a Subsequent Shelf Registration and cause the same to become effective as soon as practicable after such

filing and such Shelf or Subsequent Shelf Registration shall be subject to the terms hereof; provided, however, that the Issuer

shall only be required to cause such Registrable Securities to be so covered twice per calendar year.

2.1.4 Requests for Underwritten Shelf Takedowns.

Subject to Section 3.4, at any time and from time to time when an effective Shelf is on file with the Commission, any Holder (a

“Demanding Holder”) may request to sell all or any portion of its Registrable Securities in an Underwritten

Offering or other coordinated offering that is registered pursuant to the Shelf (each, an “Underwritten Shelf Takedown”);

provided that the Issuer shall only be obligated to effect an Underwritten Shelf Takedown if such offering shall include Registrable

Securities proposed to be sold by the Demanding Holder, either individually or together with other Demanding Holders, with a total offering

price reasonably expected to exceed, in the aggregate, $25 million (the “Minimum Takedown Threshold”). All requests

for Underwritten Shelf Takedowns shall be made by giving written notice to the Issuer, which shall specify the approximate number of Registrable

Securities proposed to be sold in the Underwritten Shelf Takedown. Subject to Section 2.4.4, the Issuer shall have the right to

select the Underwriters for such offering (which shall consist of one or more reputable nationally recognized investment banks), subject

to the initial Demanding Holder’s prior approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The

Holders, collectively, may demand no more than two (2) Underwritten Shelf Takedowns pursuant to this Section 2.1.4 in any 12-month

period (the “Yearly Limit”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer shall not be obligated to effect any

Underwritten Shelf Takedown during any period commencing fifteen (15) days prior to and ending two (2) Business Days following the Issuer’s

release of quarterly or annual earnings. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Issuer may effect any Underwritten

Offering pursuant to any then-effective Registration Statement, including a Form S-3, that is then available for such offering.

6

2.1.5 Reduction of Underwritten Offering.

If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters in an Underwritten Shelf Takedown, in good faith, advises the Issuer, the Demanding Holders

and the Holders requesting piggy back rights pursuant to this Agreement with respect to such Underwritten Shelf Takedown (the “Requesting

Holders”) (if any) in writing that the dollar amount or number of Registrable Securities that the Demanding Holders and

the Requesting Holders (if any) desire to sell, taken together with all other shares of Common Stock or other equity securities that the

Issuer desires to sell and all other shares of Common Stock or other equity securities, if any, that have been requested to be sold in

such Underwritten Offering pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back registration rights held by any other stockholders who

desire to sell, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of equity securities that can be sold in the Underwritten Offering

without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method or the probability of success of such offering

(such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of such securities, as applicable, the “Maximum Number of Securities”),

then the Issuer shall include in such Underwritten Offering, before including any shares of Common Stock or other equity securities proposed

to be sold by Issuer or by other holders of Common Stock or other equity securities, the Registrable Securities of the Demanding Holders

and the Requesting Holders (if any) (pro rata, as nearly as practicable, based on the respective number of Registrable Securities

that each Demanding Holder and Requesting Holder (if any) has requested be included in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown and the aggregate

number of Registrable Securities that the Demanding Holders and Requesting Holders (if any) have requested be included in such Underwritten

Shelf Takedown) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities. To facilitate the allocation of Registrable Securities

in accordance with the above provisions, the Issuer or the Underwriters may round the number of shares allocated to any Holder to the

nearest 10 Registrable Securities.

2.1.6 Underwritten Shelf Takedown Withdrawal.

Prior to the filing of the applicable “red herring” prospectus or prospectus supplement used for marketing such Underwritten

Shelf Takedown, a majority in interest of the Demanding Holders initiating an Underwritten Shelf Takedown shall have the right to withdraw

from such Underwritten Shelf Takedown for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification (a “Withdrawal Notice”)

to the Issuer and the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of their intention to withdraw from such Underwritten Shelf Takedown; provided

that any other Demanding Holder(s) may elect to have the Issuer continue an Underwritten Shelf Takedown if the Minimum Takedown Threshold

would still be satisfied by the Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the Underwritten Shelf Takedown by the Demanding Holder(s).

If withdrawn, a demand for an Underwritten Shelf Takedown shall constitute a demand for an Underwritten Shelf Takedown by the withdrawing

Demanding Holder for purposes of Section 2.1.4 and shall count toward the Yearly Limit, unless either (i) the Demanding Holder(s)

making the withdrawal has not previously withdrawn any Underwritten Shelf Takedown or (ii) the Demanding Holder(s) making the withdrawal

reimburses the Issuer for all Registration Expenses with respect to such Underwritten Shelf Takedown (or, if there is more than one Demanding

Holder, a pro rata portion of such Registration Expenses based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Demanding

Holder has requested be included in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown); provided that, if any other Demanding Holder(s) elects to

continue an Underwritten Shelf Takedown pursuant to the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence, such Underwritten Shelf Takedown

shall instead count as an Underwritten Shelf Takedown demanded by such Demanding Holder(s) for purposes of Section 2.1.4 and shall

count toward the Yearly Limit. Following the receipt of any Withdrawal Notice, the Issuer shall promptly forward such Withdrawal Notice

to any other Requesting Holders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Issuer shall be responsible for the Registration

Expenses incurred in connection with a Shelf Takedown prior to its withdrawal under this Section 2.1.6, other than if a Demanding

Holder elects to pay such Registration Expenses pursuant to clause (ii) of the second sentence of this Section 2.1.6.

2.2 Piggyback Registration.

2.2.1 Piggyback Rights. If the Issuer or any

Holder proposes to conduct a registered offering of, or if the Issuer proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act

with respect to the Registration of, equity securities, or securities or other obligations exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible

into equity securities, for its own account or for the account of securityholders of the Issuer (or by the Issuer and by the securityholders

of the Issuer including, without limitation, an Underwritten Shelf Takedown pursuant to Section 2.1), other than a Registration

Statement (or any registered offering with respect thereto) (i) filed in connection with any employee stock option or other benefit plan,

(ii) for an exchange offer or offering of securities solely to the Issuer’s existing stockholders, (iii) pursuant to a Registration

Statement on Form S-4 (or similar form that relates to a transaction subject to Rule 145 under the Securities Act or any successor rule

thereto), (iv) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of the Issuer, (v) for a dividend reinvestment plan,

(vi) a Block Trade or an Other Coordinated Offering (which shall be subject to Section 2.4), (vii) an “at the market”

offering or any shelf takedown for the Issuer’s own account, or (viii) any offering in connection with a merger, acquisition, or

other business combination, then the Issuer shall give written notice of such proposed offering to all of the Holders of Registrable Securities

as soon as practicable but not less than fifteen (15) Business Days before the anticipated filing date of such Registration Statement

or, in the case of an Underwritten Offering pursuant to a Shelf Registration, the applicable “red herring” prospectus or prospectus

supplement used for marketing such offering, which notice shall (A) describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such

offering, the intended method(s) of distribution, and the name of the proposed managing Underwriter or Underwriters, if any, in such offering,

and (B) offer to all of the Holders of Registrable Securities the opportunity to include in such registered offering such number of Registrable

Securities as such Holders may request in writing within five (5) business days after receipt of such written notice (such Registration,

a “Piggyback Registration”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer shall have no obligation to include any

Holder’s Registrable Securities in any Piggyback Registration if the managing Underwriter advises the Issuer that inclusion of such

securities would adversely affect the offering. The Issuer shall retain sole discretion over the pricing, timing, and structure of any

Issuer-initiated offering. Subject to Section 2.2.2, the Issuer shall, in good faith, cause such Registrable Securities to be included

in such Piggyback Registration and, if applicable, shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the managing Underwriter or

Underwriters of such Piggyback Registration to permit the Registrable Securities requested by the Holders pursuant to this Section

2.2.1 to be included therein on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the Issuer included in such registered

offering and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution

thereof. The inclusion of any Holder’s Registrable Securities in a Piggyback Registration shall be subject to such Holder’s

agreement to enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter(s) selected for such Underwritten Offering by

the Issuer.

7

2.2.2 Reduction of Piggyback Registration.

If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters in an Underwritten Offering that is to be a Piggyback Registration, in good faith, advises

the Issuer and the Holders of Registrable Securities participating in the Piggyback Registration in writing that the dollar amount or

number of shares of Common Stock or other equity securities that the Issuer or the Demanding Holders desire to sell, taken together with

(i) the shares of Common Stock or other equity securities, if any, as to which Registration or a registered offering has been demanded

pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with Persons other than the Holders of Registrable Securities hereunder, (ii) the

Registrable Securities as to which Registration has been requested pursuant to this Section 2.2 and (iii) the shares of Common

Stock or other equity securities, if any, as to which Registration or a registered offering has been requested pursuant to separate written

contractual piggy-back registration rights of Persons other than the Holders of Registrable Securities hereunder, exceeds the Maximum

Number of Securities, then:

(a) if the Registration or registered offering

is undertaken for the Issuer’s account, the Issuer shall include in any such Registration or registered offering (A) first, the

shares of Common Stock or other equity securities that the Issuer desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number

of Securities; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A),

the Registrable Securities of Holders exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2.2.1,

pro rata, as nearly as practicable, based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Holder has requested be

included in such Underwritten Offering and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that the Holders have requested to be included

in such Underwritten Offering, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (C) third, to the extent that

the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the shares of Common Stock

or other equity securities, if any, as to which Registration or a registered offering has been requested pursuant to separate written

contractual piggy-back registration rights of Persons other than the Holders of Registrable Securities hereunder, which can be sold without

exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities;

(b) if the Registration or registered offering

is pursuant to a request by Persons other than the Holders of Registrable Securities, then the Issuer shall include in any such Registration

or registered offering (A) first, the shares of Common Stock or other equity securities, if any, of such requesting Persons, other than

the Holders of Registrable Securities, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (B) second, to the extent

that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the Registrable Securities of Holders

exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2.2.1, pro rata, as nearly as practicable,

based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Holder has requested be included in such Underwritten Offering and

the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that the Holders have requested to be included in such Underwritten Offering, which can

be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been

reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the shares of Common Stock or other equity securities that the Issuer desires

to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (D) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of

Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A), (B) and (C), the shares of Common Stock or other

equity securities, if any, as to which Registration or a registered offering has been requested pursuant to separate written contractual

piggy-back registration rights of such Persons other than the Holders of Registrable Securities hereunder, which can be sold without exceeding

the Maximum Number of Securities; and

8

(c) if the Registration or registered offering

is pursuant to a request by Holder(s) of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2.1, then the Issuer shall include in any such

Registration or registered offering securities in the priority set forth in Section 2.1.5.

2.2.3 Piggyback Registration Withdrawal. Any

Holder of Registrable Securities (other than a Demanding Holder, whose right to withdraw from an Underwritten Shelf Takedown, and related

obligations, shall be governed by Section 2.1.6) shall have the right to withdraw from a Piggyback Registration for any or no reason

whatsoever upon written notification to the Issuer and the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of his, her or its intention to withdraw

from such Piggyback Registration prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to such

Piggyback Registration or, in the case of a Piggyback Registration pursuant to a Shelf Registration, the filing of the applicable “red

herring” prospectus or prospectus supplement with respect to such Piggyback Registration used for marketing such transaction. The

Issuer (whether on its own good faith determination or as the result of a request for withdrawal by Persons pursuant to separate written

contractual obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement filed with the Commission in connection with a Piggyback Registration at

any time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (other

than Section 2.1.6), the Issuer shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with the Piggyback Registration

prior to its withdrawal under this Section 2.2.3.

2.2.4 Unlimited Piggyback Registration Rights.

For purposes of clarity, subject to Section 2.1.6, any Piggyback Registration effected pursuant to Section 2.2 shall not

be counted as a demand for an Underwritten Shelf Takedown under Section 2.1.4 and shall not count toward the Yearly Limit.

2.3 Market Stand-off. In connection with

any Underwritten Offering of equity securities of the Issuer (other than a Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering), if requested by

the managing Underwriter, each Holder that is an executive officer or director of the Issuer or a Holder in excess of 5.0% of the then-outstanding

Common Stock agrees that it shall not Transfer any shares of Common Stock or other equity securities of the Issuer (other than those included

in such offering pursuant to this Agreement), without the prior written consent of the Issuer, during the 90-day period (or such shorter

time agreed to by the managing Underwriters) beginning on the date of pricing of such offering (the “Underwritten Lock-Up

Period”), except (i) to Permitted Transferees, (ii) as expressly permitted by such lock-up agreement or (iii) in the event

the Underwriters managing the offering otherwise consent in writing. Each Holder agrees to execute a customary lock-up agreement in favor

of the Underwriters to such effect (in each case on substantially the same terms and conditions as all other Holders). The Issuer will

not be obligated to undertake an Underwritten Shelf Takedown during any Underwritten Lock-Up Period binding on the Holders, nor will the

Issuer be obligated to include in any Piggyback Registration any Registrable Securities that are then subject to a “lock-up”

agreement.

2.4 Block Trades; Other Coordinated Offerings.

2.4.1 Notwithstanding any other provision of this

Article II, but subject to Section 3.4, at any time and from time to time when an effective Shelf is on file with the Commission,

if a Demanding Holder wishes to engage in (a) an underwritten registered offering not involving a “roadshow,” an offer commonly

known as a “block trade” (a “Block Trade”) or (b) an “at the market” or similar registered

offering through a broker, sales agent or distribution agent, whether as agent or principal, (an “Other Coordinated Offering”),

in each case, either (x) with an anticipated aggregate offering price reasonably expected to be at least $25 million or (y) with respect

to all remaining Registrable Securities held by the Demanding Holder, then such Demanding Holder shall notify the Issuer of the Block

Trade or Other Coordinated Offering at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the day such offering is to commence and the Issuer shall,

subject to the Issuer’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), as expeditiously

as possible use its commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate such Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering; provided that

the Demanding Holders representing a majority of the Registrable Securities wishing to engage in the Block Trade or Other Coordinated

Offering shall use commercially reasonable efforts to work with the Issuer and any Underwriters, brokers, sales agents or placement agents

prior to making such request in order to facilitate preparation of the registration statement, prospectus and other offering documentation

related to the Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering.

9

2.4.2 Prior to the filing of the applicable “red

herring” prospectus or prospectus supplement used in connection with a Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering, a majority-in-interest

of the Demanding Holders initiating such Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering shall have the right to submit a Withdrawal Notice

to the Issuer, the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) and any brokers, sale agents or placement agents (if any) of their intention to

withdraw from such Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Issuer shall

be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with a Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering prior to its withdrawal

under this Section 2.4.2.

2.4.3 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in

this Agreement, Section 2.2 shall not apply to a Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering initiated by a Demanding Holder pursuant

to this Agreement.

2.4.4 The Demanding Holder in a Block Trade or Other

Coordinated Offering shall have the right to select the Underwriters and any brokers, sale agents or placement agents (if any) for such

Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering (in each case, which shall consist of one or more reputable nationally recognized investment

banks).

2.4.5 The Holders, collectively, may demand no more

than two (2) Block Trades or Other Coordinated Offerings pursuant to this Section 2.4 in any twelve (12) month period. For the

avoidance of doubt, any Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering effected pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall not be counted as

a demand for an Underwritten Shelf Takedown pursuant to Section 2.1.4.

2.5 Legends. In connection with any sale

or other disposition of the Registrable Securities by a Holder pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (or any successor

rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission) and upon compliance by the Holder with the requirements of this Section 2.5, if

requested by the Holder, the Issuer shall cause the Transfer Agent to remove any restrictive legends related to the book

entry account holding such Registrable Securities and make a new, unlegended entry for such book entry shares sold or disposed of without

restrictive legends within three (3) Trading Days of any such request therefor from the Holder; provided that the Issuer and the Transfer

Agent have timely received from the Holder (by no later than 12:00 p.m. Eastern Time on a Trading Day) customary representations and other

documentation reasonably acceptable to the Issuer and the Transfer Agent in connection therewith. Subject to receipt from the Holder by

the Issuer and the Transfer Agent of customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Issuer and the Transfer

Agent in connection therewith, the Holder may request that the Issuer remove any legend from the book entry position evidencing its Registrable

Securities and the Issuer will, if required by the Transfer Agent, use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause an opinion of the

Issuer’s counsel to be provided, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Transfer Agent, to the effect that the removal

of such restrictive legends in such circumstances may be effected under the Securities Act, following the earliest of such time as such

Registrable Securities (i) are subject to or have been or are about to be sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or (ii)

have been or are about to be sold pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter

by the Commission); provided, however, that the Issuer’s obligation to provide a legal opinion for legend removal shall be limited

to sales pursuant to Rule 144 or an effective registration statement, and the Issuer shall have no obligation to provide opinions for

private resales or other exempt transactions unless expressly required by the Transfer Agent. If restrictive legends are no longer required

for such Registrable Securities pursuant to the foregoing, the Issuer shall, in accordance with the provisions of this section and within

three (3) Trading Days of any request therefor from the Holder accompanied by such customary and reasonably acceptable representations

and other documentation referred to above establishing that restrictive legends are no longer required, deliver to the Transfer Agent

irrevocable instructions that the Transfer Agent shall make a new, unlegended entry for such book entry shares. Any failure by the Issuer

to timely remove legends pursuant to this Section 2.5 shall not give rise to any liability or damages unless and until the applicable

Holder has fully complied with all information and documentation requirements set forth herein. The Issuer shall be responsible for the

fees of its Transfer Agent, its legal counsel and all DTC fees associated with such issuance.

Article

IIIISSUER PROCEDURES

3.1 General Procedures. In connection with

any Shelf and/or Shelf Takedown, the Issuer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect such Registration to permit the sale

of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended plan of distribution thereof (and including all manners of distribution

in such Registration Statement as Holders may reasonably request in connection with the filing of such Registration Statement and as permitted

by law, including distribution of Registrable Securities to a Holder’s members, securityholders or partners), and pursuant thereto

the Issuer shall, as expeditiously as possible:

3.1.1 prepare and file with the Commission, as soon

as reasonably practicable, a Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its commercially reasonable efforts

to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and remain effective until all Registrable Securities have ceased to be Registrable

Securities;

3.1.2 prepare and file with the Commission such amendments

and post-effective amendments to the Registration Statement, and such supplements to the Prospectus, as may be reasonably requested by

any Holder that holds at least five percent (5%) of the Registrable Securities registered on such Registration Statement or any Underwriter

of Registrable Securities or as may be required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by

the Issuer or by the Securities Act or rules and regulations thereunder to keep the Registration Statement effective until all Registrable

Securities covered by such Registration Statement are sold in accordance with the intended plan of distribution set forth in such Registration

Statement or supplement to the Prospectus;

3.1.3 prior to filing a Registration Statement or

Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, furnish without charge to the Underwriters, if any, and the Holders of Registrable

by reference therein), the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary Prospectus) and such other documents

as the Underwriters and the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration or the legal counsel for any such Holders

3.1.4 prior to any public offering of Registrable

Securities, use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration

Statement under such securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the Holders of Registrable

Securities included in such Registration Statement (in light of their intended plan of distribution) may request (or provide evidence

satisfactory to such Holders that the Registrable Securities are exempt from such registration or qualification) and (ii) take such action

necessary to cause such Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental

authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the business and operations of the Issuer and do any and all other acts and things that may

be necessary or advisable to enable the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement to consummate the disposition

of such Registrable Securities in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be required to qualify generally

to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify or take any action to which it would be subject

to general service of process or taxation in any such jurisdiction where it is not then otherwise so subject;

3.1.5 cause all such Registrable Securities to be

listed on each national securities exchange or automated quotation system on which similar securities issued by the Issuer are then listed;

3.1.6 provide a transfer agent or warrant agent,

as applicable, and registrar for all such Registrable Securities no later than the effective date of such Registration Statement;

commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or to obtain its withdrawal if such stop order should be issued;

11

3.1.8 prior to the filing of any Registration Statement

or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement or Prospectus (or such shorter period of time as (a) may be

necessary in order to comply with the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated under the Securities

Act or Exchange Act, as applicable or (b) advisable in order to reduce the number of days that sales are suspended pursuant to Section

3.4), furnish a copy thereof to each seller of such Registrable Securities and its counsel (excluding any exhibits thereto and any

filing made under the Exchange Act that is to be incorporated by reference therein);

3.1.9 notify the Holders at any time when a Prospectus

relating to such Registration Statement is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result

of which the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes a Misstatement, and then to correct such

Misstatement as set forth in Section 3.4;

3.1.10 in the event of an Underwritten Offering,

a Block Trade, an Other Coordinated Offering, or sale by a broker, placement agent or sales agent that is registered pursuant to a Registration

Statement, permit a representative of the Holders (such representative to be selected by a majority of the participating Holders), the

Underwriters or other financial institutions facilitating such Underwritten Offering, Block Trade, Other Coordinated Offering or other

sale pursuant to such Registration, if any, and any attorney, consultant or accountant retained by such Holders collectively, Underwriters

or other financial institutions to participate, at each such Person’s own expense, in the preparation of the Registration Statement,

and cause the Issuer’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any such representative,

Underwriter, financial institution, attorney, consultant or accountant in connection with the Registration; provided, however,

that (x) such representative, Underwriters or financial institutions agree to confidentiality arrangements, in form and substance

reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer, prior to the release or disclosure of any such information and (y) any Holder representative participating

in the preparation of the Registration Statement shall execute a customary confidentiality agreement in form and substance reasonably

satisfactory to the Issuer prior to receiving any Issuer information;

3.1.11 obtain a “comfort” letter (including

a bring-down letter dated as of the date the Registrable Securities are delivered for sale pursuant to such Registration) from the Issuer’s

independent registered public accountants in the event of an Underwritten Offering, a Block Trade, an Other Coordinated Offering or a

sale by a broker, placement agent or sales agent pursuant to a Registration Statement (subject to such Underwriter or other financial

institution facilitating such offering providing such certification or representation as reasonably requested by the Issuer’s independent

registered public accountings and the Issuer’s counsel), in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered

by “comfort” letters as the managing Underwriter or other similar type of sales agent or placement agent may reasonably request;

3.1.12 in the event of an Underwritten Offering,

a Block Trade, an Other Coordinated Offering or sale by a broker, placement agent or sales agent pursuant to a Registration Statement,

on the date the Registrable Securities are delivered for sale pursuant to such Registration, obtain an opinion and negative assurance

letter, dated such date, of counsel representing the Issuer for the purposes of such Registration, addressed to the participating Holders,

the broker, placement agent or sales agent, if any, and the Underwriters, if any, covering such legal matters with respect to the Registration

in respect of which such opinion is being given as the participating Holders, broker, placement agent, sales agent, or Underwriter may

reasonably request and as are customarily included in such opinions and negative assurance letters, provided, in each case, that such

participating Holders provide such information to such counsel as is customarily required for, or is reasonably requested by such counsel

for purposes of, such opinion or negative assurance letter;

3.1.13 in the event of any Underwritten Offering,

a Block Trade, an Other Coordinated Offering or sale by a broker, placement agent or sales agent pursuant to a Registration Statement,

enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, purchase agreement, sales agreement or placement agreement, in

usual and customary form, with the managing Underwriter or broker, sales agent or placement agent of such offering or sale;

12

3.1.14 make available to its security holders, as

soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period of at least 12 months beginning with the first day of the Issuer’s

first full calendar quarter after the effective date of the Registration Statement which satisfies the provisions of Section 11(a) of

the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission);

3.1.15 with respect to an Underwritten Offering pursuant

to Section 2.1.4, use its commercially reasonable efforts to make available senior executives of the Issuer to participate in customary

“road show” presentations that may be reasonably requested by the Underwriter in such Underwritten Offering; and

3.1.16 otherwise, in good faith, cooperate reasonably

with, and take such customary actions as may reasonably be requested by the Holders participating in such Registration, consistent with

the terms of this Agreement, in connection with such Registration.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer shall not be required to

provide any documents or information to an Underwriter or other sales agent or placement agent if such Underwriter or other sales agent

or placement agent has not then been named with respect to the applicable Underwritten Offering or other offering involving a registration

as an Underwriter or broker, sales agent or placement agent, as applicable.

3.2 Registration Expenses. The Registration

Expenses of all Registrations shall be borne by the Issuer; provided, however, that (i) the Issuer’s obligation to pay Registration

Expenses is conditioned on the applicable Holder’s compliance with all of its obligations under this Agreement, including timely

provision of Holder Information, (ii) the Issuer shall not be responsible for any expenses incurred by Holders in connection with withdrawn

registrations, other than as expressly provided in Sections 2.1.6 and 2.2.3, and (iii) any extraordinary expenses, including indemnification

claims, litigation costs, or fees resulting from delays caused by Holders, shall be the responsibility of the applicable Holder(s).

It is acknowledged by the Holders that the Holders shall bear all incremental selling expenses relating to the sale of Registrable Securities,

such as Underwriters’ or agents’ commissions and discounts, brokerage fees, Underwriter marketing costs and, other than as

set forth in the definition of “Registration Expenses,” all reasonable fees and expenses of any legal counsel representing

the Holders.

3.3 Requirements for Participation in Underwritten

Offerings. The Holders of Registrable Securities shall provide such information as may reasonably be requested by the Issuer, or the

managing Underwriter or placement agent or sales agent, if any, in connection with the preparation of any Registration Statement or Prospectus,

including amendments and supplements thereto, in order to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act

pursuant to Article II and in connection with the Issuer’s obligation to comply with federal and applicable state securities Laws.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if any Holder does not timely provide the Issuer with its requested Holder

Information, the Issuer may exclude such Holder’s Registrable Securities from the applicable Registration Statement or Prospectus

if the Issuer determines, based on the advice of counsel, that such information is necessary to effect the registration and such Holder

continues thereafter to withhold such information. No Person may participate in any Underwritten Offering or other coordinated offering

for equity securities of the Issuer pursuant to a Registration initiated by the Issuer hereunder unless such Person (i) agrees to sell

such Person’s securities on the basis provided in any arrangements approved by the Issuer and (ii) timely completes and executes

all customary questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, lock-up agreements, underwriting or other agreements and other customary

documents as may be reasonably required under the terms of such arrangements. The exclusion of a Holder’s Registrable Securities

as a result of this Section 3.3 shall not affect the registration of the other Registrable Securities to be included in such Registration.

13

3.4 Suspension of Sales; Adverse Disclosure;

Restrictions on Registration Rights.

3.4.1 Upon receipt of written notice from the Issuer

that a Registration Statement or Prospectus contains a Misstatement, each of the Holders shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable

Securities until he, she or it has received copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus correcting the Misstatement (it being understood

that the Issuer hereby covenants to prepare and file such supplement or amendment as soon as practicable after the time of such notice),

or until he, she or it is advised in writing by the Issuer that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed.

3.4.2 If the filing, initial effectiveness or continued

use of a Registration Statement in respect of any Registration at any time would (i) require the Issuer to make an Adverse Disclosure,

(ii) require the inclusion in such Registration Statement of financial statements that are unavailable to the Issuer for reasons beyond

the Issuer’s control, (iii) in the good faith judgment of the Board, be detrimental to the Issuer or (iv) occur during the period

commencing thirty (30) days prior to and ending thirty (30) days following the closing of any material corporate transaction, including

any merger, acquisition, financing, or similar transaction, the Issuer may, in its sole discretion, upon giving prompt written notice

of such action to the Holders (which notice shall not specify the nature of the event giving rise to such delay or suspension), delay

the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, such Registration Statement for a period of time determined in good faith by

the Issuer to be necessary for such purpose (each such period, a “Suspension Period”). In the event the Issuer

exercises its rights under this Section 3.4.2, the Holders agree to suspend, immediately upon their receipt of the notice referred

to above, their use of the Prospectus relating to any Registration in connection with any sale or offer to sell Registrable Securities

until such Holder receives written notice from the Issuer that such sales or offers of Registrable Securities may be resumed, and in each

case maintain the confidentiality of such notice and its contents.

3.4.3 Subject to Section 3.4.4, if (i) during

the period starting with the date 60 days prior to the Issuer’s good faith estimate of the date of the filing of, and ending on

a date 120 days after the effective date of, an Issuer-initiated Registration, and provided that the Issuer continues to actively employ,

in good faith, all commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the applicable Shelf Registration, or (ii) if, pursuant

to Section 2.1.4, Holders have requested an Underwritten Shelf Takedown and the Issuer and such Holders are unable to obtain the

commitment of underwriters to firmly underwrite such offering, then, in each case, the Issuer may, upon giving prompt written notice of

such action to the Holders, delay any other registered offering pursuant to Section 2.1.4.

3.4.4 The right to delay or suspend any filing, initial

effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement pursuant to Section 3.4.2 or a registered offering pursuant to Section

3.4.3 shall be exercised by the Issuer, in the aggregate, for not more than one hundred twenty (120) consecutive calendar days or

more than one hundred eighty (180) total calendar days, in each case, during any 12-month period. No liquidated damages shall accrue

against the Issuer during any Suspension Period permitted under this Section 3.4.

3.5 Reporting Obligations. As long as any

Holder shall own Registrable Securities, the Issuer, at all times while it shall be a reporting company under the Exchange Act, covenants

to use commercially reasonable efforts to file timely (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period)

all reports required to be filed by the Issuer after the date hereof pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. The Issuer

further covenants that it shall take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request, to the extent required from time to time

to enable such Holder to sell Registrable Securities held by such Holder without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation

of the exemptions provided by Rule 144.

Article

IV

INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION

4.1 Indemnification.

4.1.1 The Issuer agrees to indemnify, to the extent

permitted by law, each Holder of Registrable Securities, its officers, directors, agents and each Person who controls such Holder (within

the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses

(including, without limitation, reasonable outside attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material

fact contained in or incorporated by reference in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof

or supplement thereto filed pursuant to this Agreement or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein

or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as the same are caused by or contained in any information or

affidavit so furnished in writing to the Issuer by such Holder expressly for use therein. The Issuer shall indemnify the Underwriters,

their officers and directors and each Person who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent

as provided in the foregoing with respect to the indemnification of the Holder.

14

4.1.2 In connection with any Registration Statement

filed pursuant to this Agreement in which a Holder of Registrable Securities is participating, such Holder shall furnish (or cause to

be furnished) to the Issuer in writing such information and affidavits as the Issuer reasonably requests for use in connection with any

such Registration Statement or Prospectus (the “Holder Information”) and, to the extent permitted by law, shall

indemnify the Issuer, its directors, officers and agents and each Person who controls the Issuer (within the meaning of the Securities

Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation,

reasonable outside attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in or incorporated

by reference in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any

omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading,

but only to the extent that such untrue statement is contained in (or not contained in, in the case of an omission) any information or

affidavit so furnished in writing by such Holder expressly for use therein; provided, however, that the obligation to indemnify

shall be several, not joint and several, among such Holders of Registrable Securities, and the liability of each such Holder of Registrable

Securities shall be in proportion to and limited to the net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant

to such Registration Statement. The Holders of Registrable Securities shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers, directors and

each Person who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing

with respect to indemnification of the Issuer.

4.1.3 Any Person entitled to indemnification herein

shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided

that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any Person’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure

has not materially prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict

of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to

assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying

party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall

not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not

be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (plus one local counsel if necessary in the reasonable judgment of

the indemnified party) for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment

of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with

respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment

or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying

party pursuant to the terms of such settlement) or which settlement includes a statement or admission of fault and culpability on the

part of such indemnified party or which settlement does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff

to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

4.1.4 The indemnification provided for under this

Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer,

director or controlling Person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of securities. The Issuer and each Holder of Registrable

Securities participating in an offering also agrees to make such provisions as are reasonably requested by any indemnified party for contribution

to such party in the event the Issuer’s or such Holder’s indemnification is unavailable for any reason.

4.1.5 If the indemnification provided under Section

4.1 from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims,

damages, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified

party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities

and out-of-pocket expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified

party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall

be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of

a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by (or not made by, in the case of an omission), or

relates to information supplied by (or not supplied by in the case of an omission), such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and

the indemnifying party’s and indemnified party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct

or prevent such action; provided, however, that the liability of any Holder under this Section 4.1.5 shall be limited to

the amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder in such offering giving rise to such liability. The amount paid or payable by a

party as a result of the losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth

in Sections 4.1.1, 4.1.2 and 4.1.3, any legal or other fees, charges or out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred

by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if

contribution pursuant to this Section 4.1.5 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation,

which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 4.1.5. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation

(within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this Section 4.1.5 from

any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

illegal or unenforceable provision.

Exhibit 99.1

Ace Green Recycling, Inc. and Athena Technology

Acquisition Corp. II Announce $32 Million PIPE Investment to Support Proposed Business Combination

Investment led by seasoned sector-focused institutional

investors supports development of Ace’s Texas facility and international operations

Houston, April 23, 2026 – Ace Green Recycling, Inc. (“Ace”

or the “Company”), a leading provider of sustainable battery recycling technology solutions, and Athena Technology Acquisition

Corp. II (“ATEK II” or “Athena”), a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company, today announced that

they have entered into securities purchase agreements with certain investors for an aggregate $32 million private investment in public

equity (“PIPE”) financing to support their previously-announced proposed business combination (the “Proposed Business

Combination”), with the common stock of the combined company expected to be listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market under the ticker “AGXI”

following the consummation of the Proposed Business Combination.

The PIPE financing includes participation from sector-focused institutional

investors, and is expected to support Ace’s differentiated recycling platform for lithium (nickel-manganese-cobalt & lithium

iron phosphate) and lead batteries and its role in enabling domestic supply chains for critical battery materials supporting a circular

economy for batteries. The financing is a key milestone toward the completion of the Proposed Business Combination and supports the Company’s

strategy to scale its U.S. footprint, global supply chain management platform, and commercialize its next-generation battery recycling

technology.

“This investment accelerates our mission to redefine battery recycling

at a global scale,” said Ace CEO Nischay Chadha. “At Ace, we are deploying GREENLEAD® and LithiumFirst™ as a new

standard – fully electrified, Scope 1 emissions-free solutions designed to replace legacy processes and unlock a cleaner supply

chain for critical materials. We believe that the future of electrification depends on how efficiently and sustainably we recover these

resources, and this milestone brings us meaningfully closer to that future.”

Concurrent with and contingent upon the closing of the Proposed Business

Combination, Ace expects to receive approximately $32 million in gross proceeds from the PIPE financing before transaction expenses. The

Company expects to use these proceeds primarily to fund capital expenditures related to the development of its Texas recycling facility

as well as for general corporate purposes, including supporting the expansion of operations and to fund the purchase of other companies

, as described in the registration statement on Form S-4 most recently filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by Athena and

Ace on March 24, 2026.

We believe that investor participation in this PIPE reflects

confidence in Athena’s ability to bring together exceptional talent and partner with high-quality companies through complex transactions

and the public market process. We also believe that Ace is well positioned to support a more resilient domestic supply chain for critical

battery materials, and this marks an important step toward closing the Proposed Business Combination,” said Isabelle Freidheim,

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Athena.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING

STATEMENTS

This release contains statements regarding Athena,

Ace, the Proposed Business Combination and other matters that are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the

Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In some cases, forward-looking

statements can be identified by words such as “anticipate,” “approximate,” “believe,” “plan,”

“estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “could,” “should,” “strategy,”

“will,” “intend,” “may” and other similar expressions or the negative of such words or expressions.

Statements in this report concerning (i) Athena’s or Ace’s expected future financial position, business strategy, production

capacity, competitive positions, growth opportunities, plans and objectives of management and (ii) the expected benefits of the Proposed

Business Combination, together with other statements that are not historical facts, are forward-looking statements that are estimates

reflecting management’s best judgment based upon currently available information. Such forward-looking statements are inherently

uncertain, and stockholders and other potential investors must recognize that actual results may differ materially from expectations as

a result of a variety of factors, including, without limitation, those discussed below. Such forward-looking statements are based upon

management’s current expectations and include known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which Athena and

Ace are unable to predict or control, that may cause actual results, performance or plans to differ materially from any future results,

performance or plans expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These statements involve risks and uncertainties that could

cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in these statements as a result of a number of factors, including, but

not limited to:

· Ace has a limited operating history at scale and is developing a flagship

and new facility in the United States; scaling up its operations and expansion in the U.S. may carry uncertainties and pose liquidity

risks to Ace;

· Ace may not be able to secure adequate capital to execute its business plan;

· If Ace is unable to overcome the workforce and engineering challenges arising

from scaling up production from its existing capacities, it may not succeed in executing its growth and expansion plans;

· Successful or timely implementation of Ace’s planned U.S. facility

may be delayed due to licensing or regulatory issues;

· A large portion of Ace’s profit is derived from a relatively small

number of major customers, and its business, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected

if its key customers fail to meet their contractual obligations;

· Prices for recovered materials are subject to global market fluctuations

and price instability may negatively impact Ace’s financial performance;

· Ace relies on third-party vendors for key machineries and failure to acquire

and maintain them may adversely disrupt its operations;

· A decline in green energy adoption may inhibit future recycling opportunities

and may result in decreased demand for Ace’s products;

· Ace’s proprietary know-how may be rivaled by competitors, which may

erode the technological edge it has established;

· Unfavorable economic or geopolitical conditions could constrain Ace’s

expansion, inhibit its further growth and otherwise have a material adverse effect its business, results of operations, prospects and

financial condition;

· Athena and Ace may not obtain the requisite stockholder approvals for the

Proposed Business Combination;

· Nasdaq may not list the common stock of the surviving company following the

Proposed Business Combination, which could limit investors’ ability to effect transactions following the Proposed Business Combination;

· An event, change or other circumstance could result in the termination of

the Proposed Business Combination;

· A condition to the closing of the Proposed Business Combination may not be

satisfied;

· There may be delays in completing the Proposed Business Combination;

· Any announcement or news coverage relating to the Proposed Business Combination

could have adverse effects on the market price of Athena common stock or Ace common stock;

· The risk of litigation related to the merger; and

· Other risks and uncertainties identified in the “Risk Factors,”

“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Business” sections

of Athena’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, and other risks as identified from time to time in its SEC reports.

Athena and Ace make in or in connection with this report are qualified by the information contained or incorporated by reference in a

registration statement filed by Athena and Ace on Form S-4, that includes a proxy statement and a prospectus, to register the shares of

respectively, of the Registration Statement.

Forward-looking statements are based

on the estimates and opinions of management at the time the statements are made. Except to the extent required by applicable law, neither

Athena nor Ace undertakes any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information,

future events or otherwise. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements that speak only as of the

date hereof.
