Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive
Agreement.
On
November 1, 2023, CONX Corp. (the “Company” or “CONX”) entered into a subscription agreement
(the “Subscription Agreement”) with Charles W. Ergen, the Company’s founder (the “Subscriber”).
Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, the Subscriber agreed, subject to the closing of the Company’s initial business
combination, to purchase, and the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Subscriber, 17,391,300 shares of the Company’s
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”), at an aggregate purchase
price of approximately $200 million, or $11.50 per share (the “Transaction”). The closing of the Transaction is
contingent upon, and is expected to occur substantially concurrently with, the consummation of the Company’s initial business
combination.
In connection with the closing of the
Transaction, the Company will file a Certificate of Designation for the Preferred Stock in substantially the form attached as an
exhibit to the Subscription Agreement (the “Certificate of Designation”) with the Secretary of State of the State of
Nevada setting forth the terms, rights, obligations and preferences of the Preferred Stock. Pursuant to the Certificate of
Designation, on the tenth trading day following the date on which the volume-weighted average price for the Company’s common
stock over any twenty trading days within any preceding thirty consecutive trading day period is greater than or equal to $11.50,
each share of Preferred Stock will mandatorily be converted into shares of the Corporation’s Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis,
subject to certain customary adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits and similar corporate actions.
If
the Preferred Stock has not earlier been converted, the Company will redeem each Preferred Share after the date that is the fifth anniversary
of the closing of the Company’s initial business combination, on not less than 10 nor more than 20 days prior notice, in
cash at a price equal to $11.50 per share, subject to certain customary adjustments.
The Preferred Stock will entitle Subscriber to
receive dividends equal to and in the same form as dividends actually paid on shares of the Company’s common stock, in each case,
on an as-converted basis. The Preferred Stock will not have voting rights.
The foregoing descriptions of the Subscription
Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby do not purport to be complete, and are qualified in their entirety
by reference to the full text of such instruments, a copy of which is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1,
and incorporated herein by reference.
Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure
to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On October 30, 2023,
the Company received a notice from the staff of the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”)
indicating that the Company’s securities would be subject to suspension and delisting from The Nasdaq Capital Market at the opening
of business on November 8, 2023 due to the Company’s non-compliance with Nasdaq IM-5101-2, which requires that a special purpose
acquisition company must complete one or more business combinations within 36 months of the effectiveness of the registration statement for its initial public offering. The Company intends to request a hearing before an independent hearings panel, which request would result in a stay of
any suspension or delisting action pending the hearing.
Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
The information contained in Item 1.01 of this
Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02. The offering of the securities was not registered under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and made in reliance on
the Section 4(a)(2) exemption from registration under the Securities Act.
Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits.
(d) Exhibits.

Exhibit 10.1
SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT
November 1, 2023
Subject to the terms and conditions
hereof, the parties intend to enter into this agreement (the “Agreement”), pursuant to which Charles W. Ergen or an
affiliate (the “Subscriber”) will subscribe for the contingent right to receive shares of Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) for $11.50 per share (the “Purchase
Price”), or an aggregate of approximately $200,000,000, of CONX Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Seller”),
immediately prior to or concurrently with the closing of the Seller’s initial business combination (the “Business Combination”).
In connection therewith, the Subscriber and the Seller, in consideration of the premises, representations, warranties and the mutual covenants
contained in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt, sufficiency and adequacy of which are hereby
acknowledged, hereby agree as follows:
1.
Subscription. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Subscriber hereby subscribes for and agrees
to purchase from Seller such number of Preferred Shares as is set forth on the signature page of this Agreement at the Purchase Price
and on the terms provided for herein. The Subscriber further acknowledges and agrees that:
2.
Closing; Delivery of Preferred Shares.
a. Upon (i) satisfaction
of the conditions set forth in Section 3 below and (ii) not less than five (5) business days’ written notice
(which may be via email) from (or on behalf of) Seller to the Subscriber (the “Closing Notice”), which Closing Notice
shall contain Seller’s wire instructions, that Seller reasonably expects the closing of the Business Combination to occur on a date
that is not less than five (5) business days from the date of the Closing Notice, the Subscriber shall deliver to Seller, no later
than two (2) business days’ prior to the closing date specified in the Closing Notice (the “Closing Date”)
the Purchase Price for the Preferred Shares subscribed by wire transfer of United States dollars in immediately available funds to the
account specified by Seller in the Closing Notice against delivery, immediately prior to or concurrent with the consummation with the
Business Combination, to the Subscriber of the Preferred Shares, free and clear of any liens or other restrictions whatsoever (other than
those arising under state or federal securities laws), in book-entry form as set forth in Section 2(b) below (the “Closing”).
If, within three (3) business days following the Closing Date, the consummation of the Business Combination does not occur, Seller
shall promptly (but not later than two (2) business days thereafter) return the Purchase Price to the Subscriber and the Preferred
Shares shall not be issued. Notwithstanding such return, (i) a failure to close on the Closing Date shall not, by itself, be deemed
to be failure of any of the conditions to Closing set forth in Section 3 to be satisfied or waived on or prior to the Closing
Date and (ii) unless and until this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 8 hereof, the Subscriber shall
remain obligated (A) to redeliver funds following Seller’s delivery to the Subscriber of a new Closing Notice and (B) to
consummate the Closing upon satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Section 3. For purposes of this Agreement,
“business day” shall mean any day other than (x) a Saturday or Sunday or (y) a day on which the banking institutions
located in New York, New York are permitted or required by law, executive order or governmental decree to remain closed.
b. At the Closing, Seller
shall deliver (or cause the delivery of) the Preferred Shares in book-entry form with restrictive legends in the amount as set forth on
the signature page to the Subscriber as indicated on the signature page (or to the funds and accounts designated by Subscriber,
if so designated by Subscriber, or its nominee in accordance with its delivery instruction) or to a custodian designated by Subscriber,
as applicable, as indicated below.
3.
Closing Conditions.
a. The Closing is subject
to satisfaction or valid waiver by each party of the conditions that, on the Closing Date:
(i) no suspension of the
qualification of the Preferred Shares for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or initiation or threatening of any proceedings for any
of such purposes, shall have occurred;
(ii) no applicable governmental
authority shall have enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any judgment, order, law, rule or regulation (whether temporary,
preliminary or permanent) that is then in effect and has the effect of making consummation of the Business Combination illegal or otherwise
restraining or prohibiting consummation of the Business Combination, and no governmental authority shall have instituted or threatened
in writing a proceeding seeking to impose any such restraint or prohibition; and
(iii) all conditions precedent
to the closing of the Business Combination, including all necessary approvals of Seller’s stockholders and regulatory approvals,
if any, shall have been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that, by their nature, are to be satisfied at the closing of
the Business Combination) and the closing of the Business Combination shall be scheduled to occur concurrently with or immediately following
the Closing.
b. The obligations of Seller
to consummate the Closing shall be subject to the satisfaction or valid waiver by Seller of the additional conditions that, on the Closing
Date:

and warranties of the Subscriber contained in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects (other than representations
and warranties that are qualified as to materiality, which representations and warranties shall be true in all respects) at and as of
the Closing Date (except for representations and warranties made as of a specific date, which shall be true and correct in all material
respects (other than representations and warranties that are qualified as to materiality, which representations and warranties shall be
true in all respects) as of such date), and consummation of the Closing shall constitute a reaffirmation by the Subscriber of each of
the representations, warranties and agreements of each such party contained in this Agreement as of the Closing Date; and
(ii) the Subscriber shall
have performed, satisfied and complied in all material respects with all covenants, agreements and conditions required by this Agreement
to be performed, satisfied or complied with by it at or prior to Closing, no later than the Closing Date.
c. The obligation of the Subscriber

and warranties of Seller contained in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects (other than representations and
warranties that are qualified as to materiality or Material Adverse Effect (as defined herein), which representations and warranties shall
be true in all respects) at and as of the Closing Date (except for representations and warranties made as of a specific date, which shall
be true and correct in all material respects (other than representations and warranties that are qualified as to materiality or Material
Adverse Effect, which representations and warranties shall be true in all respects) as of such date), and consummation of the Closing
shall constitute a reaffirmation by Seller of each of the representations, warranties and agreements of each such party contained in this
Agreement as of the Closing Date; and
(ii) Seller shall have
performed, satisfied and complied in all material respects with all covenants, agreements and conditions required by this Agreement to

4.
Seller Representations and Warranties. Seller represents and warrants to the Subscriber that:
a. Seller is a Nevada corporation
duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Nevada. Seller has the corporate power and authority
to own, lease and operate its properties and conduct its business as presently conducted and to enter into, deliver and perform its obligations
under this Agreement.
b. Prior to the Closing Date,
the Preferred Shares will have been duly authorized and, when issued and delivered to the Subscriber against full payment therefor in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Preferred Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and will not have
been issued in violation of or subject to any preemptive or similar rights created under Seller’s Amended and Restated Articles
of Incorporation or under the laws of the State of Nevada. Prior to the Closing Date, the shares of Common Stock to be issued upon the
conversion of the Preferred Shares (the “Conversion Shares”) will have been duly authorized and reserved and, when
issued and delivered to the Subscriber against full payment therefor in accordance with the terms of the Certificate of Designation to
be filed prior to the Closing by the Company with the Secretary of State of Nevada, substantially in the form of Exhibit A
attached hereto (the “Certificate of Designation”), the Conversion Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable
and will not have been issued in violation of or subject to any preemptive or similar rights created under Seller’s Amended and
Restated Articles of Incorporation.
c. This Agreement has been
duly authorized, executed and delivered by Seller and is enforceable against Seller in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited
or otherwise affected by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to
or affecting the rights of creditors generally, and (ii) principles of equity, whether considered at law or equity.
d. Assuming the accuracy of
the Subscriber’s representations and warranties set forth in Section 5, in connection with the offer, sale and delivery
of the Preferred Shares in the manner contemplated by this Agreement, it is not necessary to register the offer and sale of the Preferred
Shares by Seller to the Subscriber under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
e. The Preferred Shares (i) were
not offered by any form of general solicitation or general advertising and (ii) assuming the accuracy of the subscriber representations
and warranties set forth in Section 5, are not being offered in a manner involving a public offering under, or in a distribution
in violation of, the Securities Act, or any state securities laws. Furthermore, neither Seller, nor any person acting on its behalf has,
directly or indirectly, made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security under circumstances that
would adversely affect reliance by Seller on Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act or would require registration of the issuance
of the Preferred Shares under the Securities Act.
f. The authorized
capital of Seller will consist of 500,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value, 50,000,000 shares of
Class B common stock, $0.0001 par value (collectively, “Common Stock”), and 20,000,000 shares of
undesignated preferred stock, $0.0001 par value, 17,391,300 of which will be designated as “Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock.” All shares of Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock to be issued in connection with the Business
Combination and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, as the case may be, prior to the Closing, will have been duly
authorized and validly issued, will be fully paid and nonassessable, and will not be issued in violation of (or subject to) any
preemptive rights (including any preemptive rights set forth in the organizational documents of Seller, rights of first refusal or
similar rights).
g. Seller is not required
to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or registration with, any court or other
federal, state, local or other governmental authority, self-regulatory organization or other person in connection with the execution,
delivery and performance by Seller of this Agreement (including, without limitation, the issuance of the Preferred Shares) the failure
of which to obtain would not be reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.
5.
Subscriber Representations, Warranties and Covenants. The Subscriber represents and warrants to Seller that:
a. At the time the Subscriber
was offered the Preferred Shares, it was, and as of the date hereof, the Subscriber is (i) an institutional “accredited investor”
(within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act) or an “accredited investor”
(within the meaning of Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act), (ii) acquiring the Preferred Shares only for his, her or
its own account or for an account over which it exercises sole discretion for another qualified institutional buyer or accredited investor,
(iii) other than this Agreement, not a party to a binding written agreement to sell, exchange or otherwise dispose of the Preferred
Shares and has no current plan or intention to sell, exchange or otherwise dispose of the Preferred Shares, and (iv) not acquiring
the Preferred Shares for the account of others, nor on behalf of any other account or person or with a view to, or for offer or sale in
connection with, any distribution thereof in violation of the Securities Act. The Subscriber is not an entity formed for the specific
purpose of acquiring the Preferred Shares.
b. The Subscriber understands
that the Preferred Shares are being offered in an offering not involving any public offering within the meaning of the Securities Act
and that neither the Preferred Shares delivered at the Closing nor the Conversion Shares will have been registered under the Securities
Act. The Subscriber understands that neither the Preferred Shares nor the Conversion Shares may be resold, transferred, pledged or otherwise
disposed of by the Subscriber absent an effective registration statement under the Securities Act except (i) to Seller or a subsidiary
thereof, (ii) pursuant to an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and in each of cases
(i) and (ii) in accordance with any applicable securities laws of the states and other jurisdictions of the United States, and
that any certificates representing the Preferred Shares delivered at the Closing or certificates representing the Conversion Shares delivered
upon conversion of the Preferred Shares shall contain a legend to such effect. The Subscriber acknowledges that neither the Preferred
Shares nor the Conversion Shares will be eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A promulgated under the Securities Act. The Subscriber
understands and agrees that the Preferred Shares and the Conversion Shares, until registered under an effective registration statement,
will be subject to transfer restrictions and, as a result of these transfer restrictions, the Subscriber may not be able to readily resell
the Preferred Shares or the Conversion Shares and may be required to bear the financial risk of an investment in the Preferred Shares
and the Conversion Shares for an indefinite period of time. The Subscriber understands that it has been advised to consult legal counsel
prior to entering into this Agreement or prior to making any offer, resale, pledge or transfer of any of the Preferred Shares or the Conversion
Shares.
c. The Subscriber understands
and agrees that the Subscriber is purchasing Preferred Shares directly from Seller. The Subscriber further acknowledges that there have
been no representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made to the Subscriber by Seller, or any of its officers, directors or representatives,
expressly (other than those representations, warranties, covenants and agreements included in this Agreement) or by implication.
d. The Subscriber acknowledges
and agrees that the Subscriber has received such information as the Subscriber deems necessary in order to make an investment decision
with respect to the Preferred Shares. The Subscriber represents and agrees that the Subscriber and the Subscriber’s professional
advisor(s), if any, have had the full opportunity to ask Seller’s management questions, receive such answers and obtain such information
as the Subscriber and such Subscriber’s professional advisor(s), if any, have deemed necessary to make an investment decision with
respect to the Preferred Shares.
e. The Subscriber became aware
of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement solely by means of direct contact between the Subscriber and Seller.
f. The Subscriber acknowledges
that it is aware that there are substantial risks incident to the purchase and ownership of the Preferred Shares. The Subscriber has such
knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the
Preferred Shares, and the Subscriber has sought such independent accounting, legal and tax advice as the Subscriber has considered necessary
to make an informed investment decision.
g. The Subscriber has adequately
analyzed and fully considered the risks of an investment in the Preferred Shares and determined that the Preferred Shares are a suitable
investment for the Subscriber and that the Subscriber is able at this time and in the foreseeable future to bear the economic risk of
a total loss of the Subscriber’s investment in Seller. The Subscriber acknowledges specifically that a possibility of total loss
exists.
h. In making its decision
to purchase the Preferred Shares, the Subscriber has relied solely upon independent investigation made by the Subscriber and the representations
and warranties set forth herein.
i. The Subscriber understands
and agrees that no federal or state agency has passed upon or endorsed the merits of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or
made any findings or determination as to the fairness of this investment.
j. The execution, delivery
and performance by the Subscriber of this Agreement are within the powers of the Subscriber, have been duly authorized and will not constitute
or result in a breach or default under or conflict with any order, ruling or regulation of any court or other tribunal or of any governmental
commission or agency, or any agreement or other undertaking, to which the Subscriber is a party or by which the Subscriber is bound, and,
if the Subscriber is not an individual, will not violate any provisions of the Subscriber’s charter documents, including, without
limitation, its incorporation or formation documents, bylaws, indenture of trust or partnership or operating agreement, as may be applicable,
which would reasonably be expected to materially affect the legal authority of the Subscriber to comply in all material respects with
the terms of this Agreement. The signature on this Agreement is genuine, and the signatory, if the Subscriber is an individual, has legal
competence and capacity to execute the same or, if the Subscriber is not an individual the signatory has been duly authorized to execute
the same, and this Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Subscriber, enforceable against the Subscriber in
accordance with its terms, except as may be limited or otherwise affected by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization,
moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally, and (ii) principles of equity, whether considered
at law or equity.
k. No representations and
warranties made by the Subscriber herein shall modify, amend or affect the Subscriber’s right to rely on the truth, accuracy and
completeness of Seller’s representations and warranties contained herein.
l. The Subscriber is not (i) a
person or entity named on the List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons administered by the U.S. Treasury Department’s
Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) or in any Executive Order issued by the President of the United States and
administered by OFAC (“OFAC List”), or a person or entity prohibited by any OFAC sanctions program, (ii) a Designated
National as defined in the Cuban Assets Control Regulations, 31 C.F.R. Part 515, or (iii) a non-U.S. shell bank or providing
banking services indirectly to a non-U.S. shell bank (collectively, a “Prohibited Investor”). The Subscriber agrees
to provide law enforcement agencies, if requested thereby, such records as required by applicable law, provided that the Subscriber is
permitted to do so under applicable law. If the Subscriber is a financial institution subject to the Bank Secrecy Act (31 U.S.C. Section 5311
et seq.) (the “BSA”), as amended by the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 (the “PATRIOT Act”), and its implementing
regulations (collectively, the “BSA/PATRIOT Act”), the Subscriber maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed
to comply with applicable obligations under the BSA/PATRIOT Act. To the extent required, it maintains policies and procedures reasonably
designed for the screening of its investors against the OFAC sanctions programs, including the OFAC List. To the extent required, it maintains
policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure that the funds held by the Subscriber and used to purchase the Preferred Shares
were legally derived.
6.
Registration Rights.
a.
The Subscriber shall have the same registration rights with respect to the Conversion Shares as set forth in that certain Registration
Rights Agreement between the Seller and the parties thereto, dated as of October 29, 2020, as it may be amended from time to time.
7.
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 thereof, upon the earlier to
occur of (a) upon the mutual written agreement of each of the parties hereto to terminate this Agreement or (b) the liquidation
of Seller in accordance with its Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation; provided that nothing herein will relieve any
party from liability for any willful breach hereof prior to the time of termination, and each party will be entitled to any remedies at
law or in equity to recover reasonable and documented out-of-pocket losses, liabilities or damages arising from such breach.
8.
Trust Account Waiver. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, but subject to the following sentence of this Section 8,
the Subscriber hereby waives any and all right, title, interest or claim of any kind (“Claim”) in or to any distribution
of or from the trust account (the “Trust Account”) established in which the proceeds of the initial public offering
(the “IPO”) conducted by the Seller (including the deferred underwriters’ discounts and commissions) and the
proceeds of the sale of the warrants issued in a private placement that occurred immediately prior to the closing of the IPO were deposited,
and hereby agrees not to seek recourse, reimbursement, payment or satisfaction for any Claim against the Trust Account for any reason
whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Subscriber does not waive any Claims and does not waive its rights to seek recourse, reimbursement,
payment or satisfaction for any Claim against the Trust Account for distributions of remaining funds released to the Subscriber from the
Trust Account following redemptions or other distributions to the Seller’s public stockholders. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 8 shall survive the Closing or any termination of this
Agreement and last indefinitely.
9.
Miscellaneous.
a. Neither this Agreement
nor any rights that may accrue to the Subscriber hereunder (other than the Preferred Shares acquired hereunder, if any) may be transferred
or assigned; provided that the Subscriber may assign its rights and obligations hereunder pursuant to a joinder to this Agreement in form
and substance reasonably satisfactory to Seller, to one or more funds or investment vehicles advised or managed by the Subscriber or its
affiliates, but such assignment shall not relieve the Subscriber from any of its obligations or liabilities hereunder. At the Closing,
the number of Preferred Shares delivered pursuant to this Agreement by Seller to the Subscriber and its permitted assignees shall equal,
in the aggregate, the number of Preferred Shares set forth on the Subscriber’s signature page hereto.
b. Seller may request from

or surplus, of the Corporation the same amount that a holder of Common Stock would receive if the Preferred Stock were fully converted

all holders of Common Stock. The Corporation shall provide written notice of any such Liquidation, not less than 60 days prior to the
payment date stated therein, to each Holder.
Section 6.
Conversion.
a) Mandatory
Conversion. On the tenth (10) Trading Day following the date on which the VWAP over any twenty (20) Trading Days within any preceding
thirty (30) consecutive Trading Day period is greater than or equal to $11.50 (the “Conversion Date”), each share of
Preferred Stock shall be converted into that number of shares of the Corporation’s Class A Common Stock (“Class A
Common Stock”) (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 6(c)) determined by dividing the Stated Value of such share
of Preferred Stock by the Conversion Price. For conversions of shares of Preferred Stock to take effect, a Holder shall not be required
to surrender the certificate(s) representing the shares of Preferred Stock to the Corporation (if any) unless all of the shares of
Preferred Stock represented thereby are so converted, in which case such Holder shall deliver the certificate representing such shares
of Preferred Stock promptly following the Conversion Date. Preferred Shares converted into Class A Common Stock or redeemed in accordance
with the terms hereof shall be canceled and shall not be reissued.
b) Conversion
Price. The conversion price for each share of Preferred Stock shall be $11.50 (the “Conversion Price”).
c) Mechanics
of Conversion
i. Delivery of
Conversion Shares Upon Conversion. Not later than the earlier of (i) two (2) Trading Days and (ii) the number of Trading
Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period (as defined below) after the Conversion Date (the “Share Delivery Date”),
the Corporation shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Holder (A) the number of Conversion Shares being acquired upon the
conversion of the Preferred Stock, and (B) a bank check in the amount of accrued and unpaid dividends, if any. The Corporation shall
deliver the Conversion Shares required to be delivered by the Corporation under this Section 6 electronically through the Depository
Trust Company or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions. As used herein, “Standard Settlement
Period” means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Corporation’s primary Trading
Market with respect to the Common Stock as in effect on the Conversion Date.
ii. Obligation
Absolute; Partial Liquidated Damages. The Corporation’s obligation to issue and deliver the Conversion Shares upon conversion
of Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by a Holder
to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any
action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by such
Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Corporation or any violation or alleged violation of law by such Holder or any other
person, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Corporation to such Holder in connection
with the issuance of such Conversion Shares; provided, however, that such delivery shall not operate as a waiver by the
Corporation of any such action that the Corporation may have against such Holder.
iii. Fractional
Preferred Shares. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the conversion of the Preferred
Stock. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such conversion, the Corporation shall
at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the
Conversion Price or round up to the next whole share. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but consistent with the
provisions of this subsection with respect to fractional Conversion Shares, nothing shall prevent any Holder from converting fractional
shares of Preferred Stock.
iv. Transfer Taxes
and Expenses. The issuance of Conversion Shares on conversion of this Preferred Stock shall be made without charge to any Holder for
any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such Conversion Shares, provided that
the Corporation shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery
of any such Conversion Shares upon conversion in a name other than that of the Holders of such shares of Preferred Stock and the Corporation
shall not be required to issue or deliver such Conversion Shares unless or until the Person or Persons requesting the issuance thereof
shall have paid to the Corporation the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Corporation that such tax
has been paid. The Corporation shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any conversion and all fees to the
Depository Trust Company (or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions) required for same-day electronic delivery
of the Conversion Shares.
Section 7.
Certain Adjustments.
a) Stock Dividends
and Stock Splits. If the Corporation, at any time while this Preferred Stock is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise
makes a distribution or distributions payable in shares of Common Stock on shares of Common Stock or any other Common Stock Equivalents
(which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Corporation upon conversion of, or payment
of a dividend on, this Preferred Stock), (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines
(including by way of a reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues, in
the event of a reclassification of shares of the Common Stock, any shares of capital stock of the Corporation, then the Conversion Price
shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares
of the Corporation) outstanding immediately before such event, and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 7(a) shall become effective immediately
after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective
immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.
b) Subsequent
Rights Offerings. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 7(a) above, if at any time the Corporation grants,
issues or sells any Common Stock Equivalents or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record
holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire,
upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had
held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete conversion of such Holder’s Preferred Stock (without regard to
any limitations on conversion hereof) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase
Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the
grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights.
c) Fundamental
Transaction. If, at any time while this Preferred Stock is outstanding, (i) the Corporation, directly or indirectly, in one or
more related transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or into another Person, (ii) the Corporation
(and all of its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole), directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance
or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect,
purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Corporation or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of
Common Stock are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the
holders of 50% or more of the outstanding Common Stock, (iv) the Corporation, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions
effects any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which
the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, or (v) the Corporation, directly
or indirectly, in one or more related transactions consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including,
without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with another Person whereby such other Person
acquires more than 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (not including any shares of Common Stock held by the other Person or
other Persons making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other Persons making or party to, such stock or share purchase
agreement or other business combination) (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent conversion of
this Preferred Stock, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Conversion Share that would have been issuable upon such conversion
immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation on the conversion of this Preferred
Stock), the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Corporation, if it is the surviving corporation,
and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction
by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Preferred Stock is convertible immediately prior to such Fundamental
Transaction (without regard to any limitation in Section 6(c) on the conversion of this Preferred Stock). For purposes of any
such conversion, the determination of the Conversion Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based
on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Corporation
shall apportion the Conversion Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different
components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be
received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon
any conversion of this Preferred Stock following such Fundamental Transaction. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions,
any successor to the Corporation or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall file a new Certificate of Designation with
the same terms and conditions and issue to the Holders new preferred stock consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the
Holders’ right to convert such preferred stock into Alternate Consideration. The Corporation shall cause any successor entity in
a Fundamental Transaction in which the Corporation is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing
all of the obligations of the Corporation under this Certificate of Designation and the other Transaction Documents (as defined in the
Purchase Agreement) in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7(c) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction and
shall, at the option of the holder of this Preferred Stock, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Preferred Stock a security of the
Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Preferred Stock which is convertible
for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the shares of Common
Stock acquirable and receivable upon conversion of this Preferred Stock (without regard to any limitations on the conversion of this Preferred
Stock) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with a conversion price which applies the conversion price hereunder to such shares
of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and
the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of shares of capital stock and such conversion price being for the purpose of protecting
the economic value of this Preferred Stock immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably
satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall
succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Certificate
of Designation and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Corporation” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity),
and may exercise every right and power of the Corporation and shall assume all of the obligations of the Corporation under this Certificate
of Designation and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Corporation
herein.
d) Calculations.
All calculations under this Section 7 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For
purposes of this Section 7, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be
the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Corporation) issued and outstanding.
e) Notice to
the Holders. Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 7, the Corporation shall promptly
deliver to each Holder by facsimile or email a notice setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief
statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.
g) Voluntary
Adjustment By Corporation. Subject to the rules and regulations of the Trading Market, the Corporation may at any time, subject
to the prior written consent of the Holders of the majority in interest of the Preferred Stock then outstanding, reduce the then current
Conversion Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the board of directors of the Corporation.
Section 8. Mandatory
Redemption.
a) Redemption
Event. Each Preferred Share shall be redeemed by the Corporation on or after the date that is the fifth (5) anniversary of
the closing of the Business Combination, on not less than 10 nor more than 20 days prior notice, in cash by wire transfer to a U.S.
dollar account maintained by the Holder with a bank in the United States designated in writing by the Holder at a price equal to the
Stated Value (the “Redemption Price”).
b) Notice of Redemption. Notice
of redemption shall be given by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the Holder at the Holder’s address appearing in the Corporation’s
register (the date that such notice of redemption is given in connection with any redemption, the applicable “Redemption Notice
Date”). All notices of redemption shall state:
i. the date on which the Preferred Shares
will be redeemed (the “Redemption Date”);
ii. that on the Redemption Date the Redemption
Price will become due and payable in respect of the Preferred Shares;
iii. the place or places where any certificates
of the Preferred Shares are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price.

Except as expressly provided herein, no provision of this Certificate of Designation shall alter or impair the obligation of the Corporation,
which is absolute and unconditional, to pay liquidated damages and accrued dividends, as applicable, on the shares of Preferred Stock
at the time, place, and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.
c) Lost or Mutilated
Preferred Stock Certificate. If a Holder’s Preferred Stock certificate shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Corporation
shall execute and deliver, in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of a mutilated certificate, or in lieu of or in substitution

d) Governing
Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Certificate of Designation shall
be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Nevada, without regard to the principles
of conflict of laws thereof. The Corporation and the Holder hereby irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law,
any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Certificate of Designation or the transactions
contemplated hereby. If the Corporation or any Holder shall commence an action or proceeding to enforce any provisions of this Certificate
of Designation, then the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its attorneys’
fees and other costs and expenses incurred in the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.
e) Waiver.
Any waiver by the Corporation or a Holder of a breach of any provision of this Certificate of Designation shall not operate as or be construed

by any other Holders. The failure of the Corporation or a Holder to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Certificate of Designation
on one or more occasions shall not be considered a waiver or deprive that party (or any other Holder) of the right thereafter to insist
upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Certificate of Designation on any other occasion. Any waiver by the Corporation
or a Holder must be in writing.
f) Severability.
If any provision of this Certificate of Designation is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the balance of this Certificate of Designation

applicable law governing usury, the applicable rate of interest due hereunder shall automatically be lowered to equal the maximum rate
of interest permitted under applicable law.
