• receipt of all regulatory and shareholder approvals required for the Offering and the Consolidation.

The Consolidation must be approved by not less than two-thirds of the votes cast by the shareholders at the next meeting of the shareholders of the Company to be held on September 8, 2020.

The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to satisfy the Exercise Conditions.
