Subject to the terms and conditions of the Offering Agreement, the Managers will use commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with its normal trading and sales practices, to sell the Shares from time to time, based upon the Company’s instructions, subject to applicable state and federal laws, rules and regulations, and the rules of the NYSE American.

Wainwright & Co., LLC (the “Lead Manager”), TD Securities (USA) LLC, Haywood Securities (USA) Inc., Roth Capital Partners, LLC, Eight Capital and BMO Capital Markets (collectively with the Lead Manager, the “Managers”).

The Shares will be issued pursuant to: the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-256170) (the “Registration Statement”), as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and declared effective by the SEC on June 1, 2021; the base prospectus (the “Base Prospectus”) filed as part of the Registration Statement; and the related prospectus supplement dated November 26, 2021 (the “Prospectus Supplement” and, together with the Base Prospectus, the “Prospectus”), as filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act.

Assumptions, Limitations and Qualifications

Our opinions expressed herein are subject in all respects to the following assumptions, limitations and qualifications:

· all Shares will be offered, issued and sold in compliance with applicable United States federal and state securities laws, and in the manner stated in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus;

· at the time of the issuance of any of the Shares, the Company validly exists and is duly qualified and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation, and has the necessary corporate power and authority to issue such Shares;

· at the time of the issuance of any of the Shares, the Articles of Incorporation and the Bylaws of the Company are in full force and effect and have not been amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise altered, and there has been no authorization of any such amendment, restatement, supplement or other alteration, in each case since the date hereof;

The opinions expressed in this letter are rendered as of the date hereof and are based on our understandings and assumptions as to present facts, and on the application of applicable law as the same exists on the date hereof. We assume no obligation to update or supplement this opinion letter after the date hereof with respect to any facts or circumstances that may hereafter come to our attention or to reflect any changes in the facts or law that may hereafter occur or take effect.
