Pursuant to the Sales Agreement, Wainwright has agreed to use its commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with applicable state and federal law, rules and regulations, and the rules of the Nasdaq Capital Market ("Nasdaq"), to sell the shares of Common Stock from time to time. The Company will designate the parameters for the sale of shares of Common Stock, including the number of shares to be issued, the time period during which sales are requested to be made, limitations on the number of shares that may be sold on any trading day and any minimum price below which sales may not be made.
