k.            Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that the Placement Agent, nor any affiliate of the Placement Agent or any officer, director, employee or representative of the Placement Agent or any affiliate thereof has provided Subscriber with any information or advice with respect to the Acquired Securities nor is such information or advice necessary or desired. Subscriber acknowledges that none of the Placement Agent, any of its affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors, employees or representatives (i) has made any representation as to the Issuer or the quality of the Acquired Securities, and the Placement Agent may have acquired non-public information with respect to the Issuer, which Subscriber agrees need not be provided to it, (ii) has made an independent investigation with respect to the Issuer or the Acquired Securities or the accuracy, completeness or adequacy of any information supplied to Subscriber by the Issuer, (iii) has acted as Subscriber’s financial advisor or fiduciary in connection with the issuance and purchase of the Acquired Securities or (iv) has prepared a disclosure or offering document in connection with the offer and sale of the Acquired Securities.

l.            Subscriber represents and acknowledges that Subscriber, either alone or together with any professional advisor(s) has adequately analyzed and fully considered the risks of an investment in the Acquired Securities and determined that the Acquired Securities are a suitable investment for Subscriber and that Subscriber is able at this time and in the foreseeable future to bear the economic risk of a total loss of Subscriber’s investment in the Issuer. Subscriber acknowledges specifically that a possibility of total loss exists; provided, that neither this representation nor any other representation or warranty made by the Subscriber herein shall in any way limit the Subscriber’s right to rely upon the Issuer’s representations, warranties and covenants contained herein.

5.            Registration Rights.

a.            The Issuer agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to submit to or file with the Commission, within thirty (30) calendar days after the consummation of the Transaction (the “Filing Date”) (at the Issuer’s sole cost and expense), a registration statement on Form S-3 (or Form S-1 if Form S-3 is not available) (the “Registration Statement”), registering the resale of the Registrable Securities (as defined herein), which Registration Statement may include the shares of Common Stock being purchased by the Other Subscribers in the Other Subscriptions and the shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants and Stapled Warrants being purchased by the Other Subscribers in the Other Subscriptions, and the Issuer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective under the Securities Act as soon as practicable after the filing thereof and upon the earlier of (i) the fifteenth (15^th) business day (or sixtieth (60^th) business day if the Commission notifies the Issuer that it will “review” the Registration Statement) following the filing date and (ii) the 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 earlier date, the “Effective Date”); provided, however, that the Issuer’s obligations to include the Registrable Securities in the Registration Statement are contingent upon Subscriber furnishing in writing to the Issuer such information regarding Subscriber, the securities of the Issuer held by Subscriber and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities as shall be reasonably requested by the Issuer to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities, and Subscriber shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Issuer may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations, including providing that the Issuer shall be entitled to postpone and suspend the effectiveness or use of the Registration Statement as permitted under Section 5.c of this Subscription Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Commission prevents the Issuer from including any or all of the shares proposed to be registered under the Registration Statement due to limitations on the use of Rule 415 of the Securities Act for the resale of the Registrable Securities by the applicable stockholders or otherwise, such Registration Statement shall register for resale such number of Registrable Securities which is equal to the maximum number of Registrable Securities as is permitted by the Commission. In such event, the number of Registrable Securities to be registered for each selling stockholder named in the Registration Statement shall be reduced pro rata among all such selling stockholders. In the event of any such reduction, the Issuer shall use its best efforts to promptly file additional registration statements (or amendments) as permitted by the Commission to register for resale any Registerable Securities not included due to such limitation, until all Registerable Securities are so registered. Upon notification by the Commission that the Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission, within two (2) business days thereafter, the Issuer shall file the final prospectus under Rule 424 of the Securities Act. The Issuer will provide a draft of the Registration Statement to Subscriber for review at least five (5) business days in advance of filing the Registration Statement; provided, that for the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Issuer be required to delay or postpone the filing of such Registration Statement as a result of or in connection with Subscriber’s review. In no event shall Subscriber be identified as an underwriter in the Registration Statement unless required by the Commission; provided, that if the Commission requests that Subscriber be identified as an underwriter in the Registration Statement, Subscriber will have an opportunity to withdraw from the Registration Statement (in which case the Issuer shall not identify the Subscriber as an underwriter therein). Subscriber shall not be entitled to use the Registration Statement for an underwritten offering of Registrable Securities. For purposes of clarification, any failure by the Issuer to file the Registration Statement by the Filing Date or to effect such Registration Statement by the Effective Date shall not otherwise relieve the Issuer of its obligations to file or effect the Registration Statement as set forth above in this Section 5. “Registrable Securities” means the Acquired Shares, the Stapled Warrants, the Warrant Shares issued or issuable upon the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants and/or Stapled Warrants, and any shares of Common Stock issued or issuable with respect to the Acquired Shares and the Warrant Shares as a result of any stock split or subdivision, stock dividend, recapitalization, exchange or similar event.

b.            In the case of the registration effected by the Issuer pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, the Issuer shall, upon reasonable request, inform Subscriber as to the status of such registration. At its expense the Issuer shall:

(i) except for such times as the Issuer is permitted hereunder to suspend the use of the prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep such registration continuously effective with respect to Subscriber, and to keep the applicable Registration Statement or any subsequent shelf registration statement free of any material misstatements or omissions, until the earlier of the following: (A) Subscriber ceases to hold any Registrable Securities, (B) the date all Registrable Securities held by Subscriber may be sold without restriction under Rule 144 of the Securities Act, including without limitation, any volume and manner of sale restrictions which may be applicable to affiliates under Rule 144 and without the requirement for the Issuer to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144(c)(1) or Rule 144(i)(2), as applicable, and (C) three (3) years from the Effective Date of the Registration Statement. The period of time during which the Issuer is required hereunder to keep a Registration Statement effective is referred to herein as the “Registration Period”;

- 17 -

(ii) during the Registration Period, advise Subscriber promptly:

(1) when a Registration Statement or any amendment thereto has been filed with the Commission and when such Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective;

(2) of any request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to any Registration Statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional information;

(3) after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for such purpose;

(4) of the receipt by the Issuer of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Registrable Securities included therein for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and

(5) in accordance with Section 5.c of this Subscription Agreement, of the occurrence of any event that requires the making of any changes in any Registration Statement or prospectus so that, as of such date, any Registration Statement does not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or does not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or any prospectus does not include an untrue statement of a material fact or does not omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Issuer shall not, when so advising Subscriber of such events, provide Subscriber with any material, nonpublic information regarding the Issuer, any of its affiliates or any other Person, unless the Issuer has notified Subscriber of the existence of such an event (without providing material, nonpublic information about the specific nature of such event) and obtained the written consent of the Subscriber to receive such information;

(iii) during the Registration Period, use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement as soon as reasonably practicable;

(iv) during the Registration Period, upon the occurrence of any event contemplated above, except for such times as the Issuer is permitted hereunder to suspend, and has suspended, the use of a prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, use its commercially reasonable efforts to as soon as reasonably practicable prepare a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus, or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Registrable Securities included therein, such prospectus will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

(v) during the Registration Period, use its commercially reasonable efforts (y) to remain listed on each Exchange and to cause all Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange or market, if any, on which the Common Stock issued by the Issuer have been listed and (z) to timely comply in all material respects with the Issuer’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the rules and regulations of the Commission and each Exchange;

(vi) during the Registration Period, use its commercially reasonable efforts to take all other steps necessary to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities contemplated hereby and, for so long as Subscriber holds Registrable Securities, to enable Subscriber to sell the Registrable Securities under Rule 144; and

- 18 -

(vii) subject to receipt from Subscriber by the Issuer or its transfer agent of customary representations and other customary documentation reasonably acceptable to the Issuer and the transfer agent in connection therewith, Subscriber may request that the Issuer remove, and the Issuer shall cause to be removed, any legend from the book entry position(s) or certificate(s) evidencing its Registrable Securities at any time that such Registrable Securities (A) are subject to or have been or are about to be sold or transferred pursuant to, an effective registration statement (including a registration statement filed under this Agreement); (B) have been or are about to be sold pursuant to Rule 144; or (C) may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without restriction on the volume or manner of sale and without the requirement for the Issuer to be in compliance with the current public information requirement under Rule 144 (or any similar provision then in force under the Securities Act). If required by the Issuer’s transfer agent, the Issuer shall cause its counsel to deliver to such transfer agent an opinion of counsel to the effect that the removal of restrictive legends in such circumstances may be effected under the Securities Act. 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 5 and within two (2) business days of any request therefor from Subscriber 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 Registrable Securities. The Issuer shall be responsible for the fees of its transfer agent and all Depository Trust Company fees associated with such issuance.

(viii) The Issuer shall reasonably cooperate with any broker-dealer through which a Subscriber proposes to resell Registrable Securities, including making any required filings with FINRA and applicable state securities authorities.

c.            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Subscription Agreement, the Issuer shall be entitled to delay or postpone the filing or effectiveness of the Registration Statement, and, from time to time, to require Subscriber not to sell under the Registration Statement or to suspend the effectiveness or use thereof, if it determines that the negotiation or consummation of a transaction by the Issuer is pending or an event has occurred, which negotiation, consummation or event that the Board of Directors reasonably believes, upon the advice of outside legal counsel, would require additional disclosure by the Issuer in the Registration Statement of material information that the Issuer has a bona fide business purpose for keeping confidential and the non-disclosure of which in the Registration Statement would be expected, in the reasonable determination of the Issuer, upon the advice of outside legal counsel, to cause the Registration Statement to fail to comply with applicable disclosure requirements or is otherwise necessary for the Registration Statement to not contain a material misstatement or omission (each such circumstance, a “Suspension Event”); provided, however, that the Issuer may not delay or suspend the effectiveness or use of the Registration Statement on more than two (2) occasions or for more than sixty (60) calendar days, or for more than ninety (90) total calendar days, in each case during any twelve-month period. Upon receipt of any written notice from the Issuer of the happening of any Suspension Event (which notice shall not contain material, nonpublic information) during the period that the Registration Statement is effective or if as a result of a Suspension Event the Registration Statement contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or any related prospectus includes any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, Subscriber agrees that (i) it will promptly discontinue offers and sales of the Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement until Subscriber receives copies of a supplemental or amended prospectus (which the Issuer agrees to promptly prepare) that corrects the misstatement(s) or omission(s) referred to above and receives notice that any post-effective amendment has become effective or unless otherwise notified by the Issuer that it may resume such offers and sales and (ii) it will maintain the confidentiality of any information included in such written notice delivered by the Issuer unless otherwise required by law or subpoena. If so directed by the Issuer, Subscriber will deliver to the Issuer or, in Subscriber’s sole discretion destroy, all copies of the prospectus covering the Registrable Securities in Subscriber’s possession; provided, however, that this obligation to deliver or destroy all copies of the prospectus covering the Registrable Securities shall not apply (A) to the extent Subscriber is required to retain a copy of such prospectus (x) in order to comply with applicable legal, regulatory, self-regulatory or professional requirements or (y) in accordance with a bona fide pre-existing document retention policy or (B) to copies stored electronically on archival servers as a result of automatic data back-up.

- 19 -

d.            Subscriber may deliver written notice (including via email in accordance with Section 8.k) (an “Opt-Out Notice”) to the Issuer requesting that Subscriber not receive notices from the Issuer otherwise required by this Section 5; provided, however, that Subscriber may later revoke any such Opt-Out Notice in writing. Following receipt of an Opt-Out Notice from Subscriber (unless subsequently revoked), (i) the Issuer shall not deliver any such notices to Subscriber and Subscriber shall no longer be entitled to the rights associated with any such notice and (ii) each time prior to Subscriber’s intended use of an effective Registration Statement, Subscriber will notify the Issuer in writing at least two (2) business days in advance of such intended use, and if a notice of a Suspension Event was previously delivered (or would have been delivered but for the provisions of this Section 5.d) and the related suspension period remains in effect, the Issuer will so notify Subscriber, within one (1) business day of Subscriber’s notification to the Issuer, by delivering to Subscriber a copy of such previous notice of Suspension Event, and thereafter will provide Subscriber with the related notice of the conclusion of such Suspension Event immediately upon its availability.

e.            The Issuer shall, notwithstanding any termination of this Subscription Agreement in accordance with Section 6, indemnify, defend and hold harmless Subscriber (to the extent a seller under the Registration Statement), its directors, officers, agents, broker-dealers, and employees and each person who controls Subscriber (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all out-of-pocket losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable and documented costs (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented costs of preparation and investigation and reasonable documented attorneys’ fees of one legal counsel (and one local counsel)) and all other reasonable and documented expenses (collectively, “Losses”), as incurred, that arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or arising out of or relating to any omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (ii) any untrue statement of a material fact included in any prospectus included (or incorporated by reference) in the Registration Statement, or any form of prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in either of the foregoing cases, to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omissions are based upon information regarding Subscriber furnished in writing to the Issuer by Subscriber expressly for use therein or Subscriber has omitted a material fact from such information or otherwise violated the Securities Act, Exchange Act or any state securities law or any rule or regulation thereunder; or (iii) any material breach of any representation, warranty, or covenant in this Agreement; provided, however, that the indemnification contained in this Section 5 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Losses if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Issuer (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), nor shall the Issuer be liable for any Losses to the extent they arise out of or are based upon a violation which occurs (A) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by Subscriber expressly for inclusion in the Registration Statement, or (B) in connection with any offers or sales effected by or on behalf of Subscriber in violation of Section 5.c hereof. The Issuer shall notify Subscriber reasonably promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any proceeding arising from or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Section 5 of which the Issuer is aware. The Issuer shall not, without the prior written consent of Subscriber, effect any settlement of any pending proceeding in respect of which Subscriber or any other person entitled to indemnification hereunder is a party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of Subscriber or such other person, as applicable, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of an indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by Subscriber. The indemnification obligations of the Issuer shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any termination of this Subscription Agreement and shall survive the transfer of Registerable Securities by Subscriber.

- 20 -

f.            Subscriber shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer, its directors, officers, agents and employees, and each person who controls the Issuer (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses, as incurred, that arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement or in any amendment or supplement thereto or arising out of or relating to any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or (ii) any untrue statement of a material fact included in any prospectus included in the Registration Statement, or any form of prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omissions are based upon information regarding Subscriber furnished in writing to the Issuer by Subscriber expressly for use therein or a material fact that Subscriber has omitted from such information; provided, however, that the indemnification contained in this Section 5.f shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Losses if such settlement is effected without the consent of Subscriber (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). In no event shall the liability of Subscriber be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by Subscriber upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation. Subscriber shall notify the Issuer promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any proceeding arising from or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Section 5.f of which Subscriber is aware. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of an indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the Acquired Securities by Subscriber.

g.            If the indemnification provided under this Section 5 from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any Losses, 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 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 statement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact, was made by, or relates to information supplied by, 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. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the Losses shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. 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 5.g from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Each indemnifying party’s obligation to make a contribution pursuant to this Section 5.g shall be several, not joint. In no event shall the liability of the Subscriber under any indemnification or contribution obligation hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by the Subscriber upon the sale of the Acquired Securities purchased pursuant to this Subscription Agreement giving rise to such obligation. The Issuer acknowledges and agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for a breach of its obligations hereunder, and Subscriber shall be entitled to specific performance. All obligations of the Issuer under this Section shall survive any termination of this Agreement and the transfer of Registerable Securities.

h.            Except as expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents to the contrary, the Issuer shall not enter into any agreement granting registration rights that are more favorable in any respect to another holder of its securities without offering such more favorable terms to Subscriber on a pari passu basis.

6.            Termination. This Subscription 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 earliest to occur of (a) upon the mutual written agreement of each of the parties hereto to terminate this Subscription Agreement, (b) if any of the conditions to the Closing set forth in Section 2 of this Subscription Agreement are not satisfied at, or are not capable of being satisfied on or prior to the Closing and, as a result thereof, the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement will not be or are not consummated at the Closing, or (c) at the election of Subscriber, on or after September 24, 2025; 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 losses, liabilities or damages arising from any such willful breach. In the event that this Subscription Agreement is terminated for any reason, the Issuer shall within one (1) business day following such termination, return to Subscriber (by wire transfer of U.S. dollars in immediately available funds to the account specified by such Subscriber) all funds deposited in escrow by Subscriber in connection with the Transaction.

n.            In connection with any sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of the Acquired Securities by a Subscriber pursuant to Rule 144 or pursuant to any other exemption under the Securities Act such that the purchaser acquires freely tradable shares and upon compliance by the Subscriber with the requirements of this Subscription Agreement, if requested by the Subscriber by notice to the Issuer, the Issuer shall request its transfer agent to remove any restrictive legends related to the book entry account holding such shares and make a new, unlegended entry for such book entry shares sold or disposed of without restrictive legends within one (1) business day of any such request therefor from such Subscriber, provided, that the Issuer has timely received from the Subscriber a completed representation letter in customary form and such other customary representations as may be reasonably required in accordance with applicable law in connection therewith. The Issuer shall be responsible for the fees of the Issuer’s transfer agent, its legal counsel and all DTC fees associated with such legend removal.

o.            From the date hereof until thirty (30) days after the Effective Date, neither the Company nor any subsidiary of the Company shall (i) issue, enter into any agreement to issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any shares of Common Stock at a price below the Stapled Warrant Exercise Price or (ii) file any registration statement or amendment or supplement thereto, in each case without the written consent of the holders of a majority of the Acquired Securities in the Offering, other than (x) a registration statement on Form S-8 in connection with any employee benefit plan and (y) a universal shelf registration statement on Form S-3 to register securities of the Company in a continuous and/or delayed offering; provided, however, the Company will be permitted to (A) enter into a sales agreement providing for the sale of shares of Common Stock in an “at-the-market” offering and file any such prospectus supplement or registration statement with the Commission in connection with such sales agreement and (B) issue shares of Common Stock pursuant to an equity line of credit.

r.            The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Subscription Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof, and accordingly, that the parties hereto shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Subscription Agreement or to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions of this Subscription Agreement in an appropriate court of competent jurisdiction as set forth in Section 8.l, in addition to any other remedy to which any party is entitled at law or in equity.

s.            Each party hereto intends that (i) the purchase of the Acquired Securities by Subscriber pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, together and as part of a single integrated transaction with the purchase of shares of Common Stock and Pre-Funded Warrants by the Other Subscribers pursuant to the Other Subscription Agreements, shall, unless otherwise determined by the Company after the Closing, qualify as an exchange by Subscriber of cash, USDC, and/or USDT for the Acquired Securities pursuant to Section 351(a) of the Code, and (ii) the Pre-Funded Warrants shall be treated as stock for U.S. federal (and applicable state and local) income tax purposes (together, the “Intended Tax Treatment”). Unless otherwise determined by the Company after the Closing, each party hereto (a) agrees to report and file all applicable tax returns consistent with the Intended Tax Treatment, and no party hereto will take any position for applicable tax purposes inconsistent with the Intended Tax Treatment (whether in applicable tax returns, tax audits or proceedings, or otherwise), unless in any such case required by a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a)(1) of the Code (or any similar or analogous provision of state or local tax law) and (b) shall file with its applicable U.S. federal income tax return on a timely basis the information required by Treasury Regulations Section 1.351-3 and maintain the permanent records described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.351-3, in each case, to the extent applicable, and in the event a government authority disputes or takes a position inconsistent with the Intended Tax Treatment, the party receiving notice of such dispute shall promptly notify the other parties hereto.
