Dear Sirs,
Re: Baijiayun Group Ltd (the “Company”)
We have acted as special Cayman Islands legal
counsel to the Company in connection with a registration statement on Form F-3, including all amendments or supplements thereto (the “Registration
Statement” which term does not include any other document or agreement whether or not specifically referred to therein or attached
as an exhibit or schedule thereto), filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on or
about the date hereof relating to the registration under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “Securities Act”)
of (i) 54,055 Class A ordinary shares (the “New Shares”) of par value US$0.0001 per share of the Company (the “Class
A Ordinary Shares”) and (ii) 4,324,325 Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of convertible promissory notes in the
principal amount of US$8,000,000 (the “Convertible Notes”, and collectively with the Class A Ordinary Shares and the
New Shares, the “Securities”) issued by the Company to YA II PN, LTD. (the “Investor”).
For the purposes of giving this opinion, we have
examined the following document(s):
| 1.1. | a copy of the standby equity purchase agreement made between the Company and the Investor dated 6 December
2024; |
| 1.2. | a copy of the form of the convertible note issued by the Company to the Investor in respect of the Convertible
Notes; |
| 1.3. | a copy of the Registration Statement; |
| 1.4. | a draft of the prospectus (the “Prospectus”) contained in the Registration Statement. |
The Class A Ordinary Shares to be issued upon
conversion of the Convertible Notes into Class A Ordinary Shares are referred to herein as the “Conversion Shares”.
We have also reviewed
copies of:
| 1.5. | a copy of the fourth amended and restated memorandum of association and the third amended and restated
articles of association of the Company which became effective on 27 September 2024 (the “Constitutional Documents”); |
| 1.6. | a copy of the written resolutions of its directors dated 6 December 2024 (the “Resolutions”); |
| 1.7. | a copy of a Certificate of Good Standing issued by the Registrar of Companies in relation to the Company
on 3 December 2024 (the “Certificate Date”); and |
| 1.8. | such other documents and made such enquiries as to questions of law as we have deemed necessary in order
to render the opinion set forth below. |
We have assumed:
| 2.1. | the genuineness and authenticity of all signatures and the
conformity to the originals of all copies (whether or not certified) examined by us and the authenticity and completeness of the originals
from which such copies were taken; |
| 2.2. | that where a document has been examined by us in draft form,
it will be or has been executed and/or filed in the form of that draft, and where a number of drafts of a document have been examined
by us all changes thereto have been marked or otherwise drawn to our attention; |
| 2.3. | the capacity, power and authority of each of the parties
to the definitive agreements relating to the Convertible Notes (the “Non-Equity Securities Agreements”) other than
the Company, to enter into and perform its respective obligations under the Non-Equity Securities Agreements; |
| 2.4. | the accuracy and completeness of all factual representations
made in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and other documents reviewed by us; |
| 2.5. | that the Resolutions were passed at one or more duly convened,
constituted and quorate meetings or by unanimous written resolutions, will remain in full force and effect and will not be rescinded
or amended; |
| 2.6. | that the M&As and the Convertible Notes will not be amended
in any manner that would affect the opinions expressed herein; |
| 2.7. | that there is no provision of the law of any jurisdiction,
other than the Cayman Islands, which would have any implication in relation to the opinions expressed herein; |
| 2.8. | that on the date of entering into the Convertible Notes and the date(s) of allotment (where applicable)
and issuance of any Securities, the Company is, and after entering into the Convertible Notes and any such allotment and issuance of Securities
the Company is and will be able to, pay its debts; |
| 2.9. | that the issue of the Securities by the Company is in furtherance of its objects as set out in the Memorandum
of Association; |
| 2.10. | that the Company will have sufficient authorized and unissued Class A Ordinary Shares to effect the issue
of the Class A Ordinary Shares at the time of issuance, whether as a principal issue or on the conversion, exchange, or exercise of the
Convertible Note; |
| 2.11. | that the form and terms of any and all Securities, the issuance and sale of any Securities by the Company,
and the Company’s incurrence and performance of its obligations thereunder or in respect thereof (including, without limitation,
its obligations under any related agreement, indenture or supplement thereto) in accordance with the terms thereof will not violate the
M&As nor any applicable law, regulation, order or decree in the Cayman Islands; |
| 2.12. | that no invitation has been or will be made by or on behalf of the Company to the public in the Cayman
Islands to subscribe for any Securities, and that neither the Convertible Notes nor the Conversion Shares to be issued pursuant to the
Convertible Notes will be issued to residents of the Cayman Islands; |
| 2.13. | that all necessary corporate action will be taken to authorise
and approve any issuance of the Securities, the terms of any offering thereof and related matters, and that the Non-Equity Securities
Agreements and any applicable supplements to the Prospectus (each, a “Prospectus Supplement”), and any other purchase,
underwriting or similar agreement thereto will be duly approved, executed and delivered by or on behalf of the Company and all other
parties thereto; |
| 2.14. | that upon exercise of the conversion or exchangeable rights
or purchase rights to the Convertible Note, the Company will receive consideration for the full issue price thereof which shall be equal
to at least the par value of the Class A Ordinary Shares; |
| 2.15. | that the Securities to be offered and sold, will be, legal, valid, binding and enforceable against all
relevant parties in accordance with their terms pursuant to the applicable governing law and jurisdiction (except to the extent that we
expressly opine herein on matters of Cayman Islands law); |
| 2.16. | that neither the Company nor any of its shareholders is a sovereign entity of any state and none of them
is a subsidiary, direct or indirect, of any sovereign entity or state; |
| 2.17. | the issuance and sale of and payment for the Securities will
be in accordance with the Non-Equity Securities Agreements and any other purchase, underwriting or similar agreement duly approved by
the board of directors of the Company and/or, where so required, the shareholders of the Company, and the Registration Statement (including
the Prospectus, any post-effective amendment thereto and any Prospectus Supplement); |
| 2.18. | there is no contractual or other prohibition or restriction (other than as arising under Cayman Islands
law) binding on the Company prohibiting or restricting it from entering into and performing its obligations under the Registration Statement
and the Convertible Note; |
| 2.19. | the Company has not taken any action to appoint a restructuring
officer; |
| 2.20. | the validity and binding effect under the laws of the United
States of America of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and that the Registration Statement will be duly filed with or declared
effective by the Commission; and |
| 2.21. | that the Prospectus, when published, will be in substantially
the same form as that examined by us for purposes of this opinion. |
We have made no investigation
of and express no opinion in relation to the laws of any jurisdiction other than the Cayman Islands. This opinion is to be governed by
and construed in accordance with the laws of the Cayman Islands and is limited to and is given on the basis of the current law and practice
in the Cayman Islands. This opinion is issued solely for the purposes of the filing of the Registration Statement and the issuance of
the Class A Ordinary Shares by the Company and is not to be relied upon in respect of any other matter.
On the basis of and subject to the foregoing,
we are of the opinion that:
| 4.1. | The Company is duly incorporated and existing under the laws of the Cayman Islands and, based on the Certificate
of Good Standing, is in good standing as at the Certificate Date. Pursuant to the Companies Act (the “Act”), a company
is deemed to be in good standing if all fees and penalties under the Act have been paid and the Registrar of Companies has no knowledge
that the Company is in default under the Act. |
| 4.2. | When issued and paid for as contemplated by the Resolutions and the Registration Statement and registered
in the register of members of the Company, the New Shares and the Conversion Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable
(which term when used herein means that no further sums are required to be paid by the holders thereof in connection with the issue of
such shares). |
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion
as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the references to our firm under the captions “Enforceability of Civil Liabilities”
and “Legal Matters” in the Prospectus forming a part of the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not
hereby admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the Rules and
Regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder.
Yours faithfully,
/s/ Conyers Dill & Pearman

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, BAIJIAYUN
GROUP LTD, an exempted company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Company”), hereby promises to
pay to the order of YA II PN, LTD., or its registered assigns (the “Holder”), the amount set out above as the Original
Principal Amount (or such lesser amount as reduced pursuant to the terms hereof pursuant to repayment, redemption, conversion or otherwise,
the “Principal”) and the Payment Premium or the Redemption Premium, as applicable, in each case when due, and to pay
interest (“Interest”) on any outstanding Principal at the applicable Interest Rate (as defined below) from the date
set out above as the Issuance Date (the “Issuance Date”) until the same becomes due and payable, whether upon the Maturity
Date or acceleration, conversion, redemption or otherwise (in each case in accordance with the terms hereof). Certain capitalized terms
used herein are defined in Section (13). The Issuance Date is the date of the first issuance of this Convertible Promissory Note (as amended,
amended and restated, extended, supplemented or otherwise modified in writing from time to time, this “Note”) regardless
of the number of transfers and regardless of the number of instruments, which may be issued to evidence such Note. This Note was issued
with a 10% original issue discount. The Company and the Holder are referred to herein at times, collectively, as the “Parties,”
and each, a “Party.”
This Note is being issued pursuant
to Section 2.01 of the Standby Equity Purchase Agreement, dated December 6, 2024 (as may be amended, amended and restated, extended, supplemented
or otherwise modified in writing from time to time, the “SEPA”), by and between the Company and YA II PN, Ltd., as
the Investor. This Note may be repaid in accordance with the terms of the SEPA, including, without limitation, pursuant to Investor Notices
and corresponding Advance Notices deemed given by the Company in connection with such Investor Notices. The Holder also has the option
of converting on one or more occasions all or part of the then outstanding balance under this Note by delivering to the Company one or
more Conversion Notices in accordance with Section 3 of this Note.
(1) GENERAL
TERMS
(a) Maturity
Date. On the Maturity Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash representing all outstanding Principal, accrued
and unpaid Interest, and any other amounts outstanding pursuant to the terms of this Note. The “Maturity Date” shall
be October 6, 2025, as may be extended at the option of the Holder. Other than as specifically permitted by this Note, the Company may
not prepay or redeem any portion of the outstanding Principal and accrued and unpaid Interest.
(b) Interest
Rate and Payment of Interest. Interest shall accrue on the outstanding Principal balance hereof at an annual rate equal to 0% (“Interest
Rate”), which Interest Rate shall increase to an annual rate of 18% upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (for so long
as such event remains uncured). Interest shall be calculated based on a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed, to the extent
permitted by applicable law.
(c) Monthly
Payments. If, any time after the Issuance Date set forth above, and from time to time thereafter, an Amortization Event has occurred,
then the Company shall make monthly payments beginning on the 7th Trading Day after the Amortization Event Date and continuing on the
same day of each successive Calendar Month until the entire outstanding principal amount shall have been repaid. Each monthly payment
shall be in an amount equal to the sum of (i) $2,500,000 of Principal in the aggregate among this Note and all Other Notes (or the outstanding
Principal if less than such amount) (the “Amortization Principal Amount”), plus (ii) the Payment Premium (as defined
below) in respect of such Amortization Principal Amount, and (iii) accrued and unpaid interest hereunder as of each payment date. The
obligation of the Company to make monthly prepayments related to an Amortization Event shall cease (with respect to any payment that has
not yet come due) if at any time after the Amortization Event Date (A) in the event of a Floor Price Event, either (i) on the date that
is the 5th consecutive Trading Day that the daily VWAP is greater than 110% of the Floor Price then in effect, or (ii) the Company provides
the Holder with a reset notice (“Reset Notice”) setting forth a reduced Floor Price which shall be equal to no more
than 75% of the closing price on the Trading Day immediately prior to such Reset Notice (and in no event greater than the Floor Price
in effect prior to such Reset Notice), or (B) in the event of a Registration Event, the condition or event causing the Registration Event
has been cured, unless, in any of the foregoing cases, a subsequent Amortization Event occurs.
(d) Optional
Redemption. The Company at its option shall have the right, but not the obligation, to redeem (“Optional Redemption”)
early a portion or all amounts outstanding under this Note as described in this Section; provided, that the Company provides the
Holder with at least 10 Trading Days’ prior written notice (each, a “Redemption Notice”) of its desire to exercise
an Optional Redemption, which Redemption Notice (i) shall be delivered to the Holder after the close of regular trading hours on a Trading
Day, and (ii) may only be given if the VWAP of the Ordinary Shares was less than the Fixed Price on the date such Redemption Notice is
delivered, unless otherwise agreed by the Holder. Each Redemption Notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the outstanding balance
of the Note to be redeemed and the Redemption Amount. The “Redemption Amount” shall be an amount equal to (a) the outstanding
Principal balance being redeemed by the Company plus (b) the Redemption Premium in respect of such Principal amount plus
(c) all accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such Principal amount. After receipt of a Redemption Notice, the Holder shall have ten
(10) Trading Days (beginning with the Trading Day immediately following the date such Redemption Notice is delivered to the Holder in
accordance with the terms of Section 5) to convert all or any portion of the outstanding Principal of this Note plus all accrued and unpaid
Interest, if any, in respect of such Principal. On the eleventh (11th) Trading Day following the delivery of the applicable
Redemption Notice, the Company shall deliver to the Holder the Redemption Amount with respect to the Principal amount redeemed to the
extent not converted and otherwise after giving effect to conversions or other payments made during such ten (10) Trading Day period.
(e) Payment
Dates. Whenever any payment or other obligation hereunder shall be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made
on the next succeeding Business Day.
(f) Other
than as specifically set forth in this Note, the Company shall not have the ability to make any early repayments without the consent of
or at the request of the Holder.
(2) EVENTS

Days.
(b) During
the time that any portion of this Note is outstanding, if any Event of Default has occurred (other than an event with respect to the Company
described in Section (2)(a)(ii)), the full unpaid Principal amount of this Note, together with interest and other amounts owing in respect
thereof to the date of acceleration, shall become, at the Holder’s election, given by notice pursuant to Section (5), immediately due

Principal amount of this Note, together with accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts owing in respect thereof to the date of acceleration,

are hereby waived by the Company. Furthermore, in addition to any other remedies, the Holder shall have the right (but not the obligation)
to convert, on one or more occasions, all or part of the Note in accordance with Section (3) (and subject to the limitations set out in
Section (3)(c)(i) and Section (3)(c)(ii)) at any time after an Event of Default has occurred until all amounts outstanding under this

of any kind (other than required notice of conversion), and the Holder may immediately enforce any and all of its rights and remedies
hereunder and all other remedies available to it under applicable law. Such declaration may be rescinded and annulled by the Holder in
writing at any time prior to payment hereunder. No such rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair
any right consequent thereon.
(3) CONVERSION OF NOTE. This
Note shall be convertible into Ordinary Shares on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section (3).
(a) Conversion
Right. Subject to the limitations of Section (3)(c), at any time or times on or after the Issuance Date, the Holder shall be entitled
to convert any portion of the outstanding and unpaid Conversion Amount into fully paid and nonassessable Ordinary Shares in accordance
with Section (3)(b) at the Conversion Price. The number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of any Conversion Amount pursuant
to this Section (3)(a) shall be determined by dividing (x) such Conversion Amount by (y) the Conversion Price. The Company shall not issue
any fraction of an Ordinary Share upon any conversion. All calculations under this Section (3) shall be rounded to the nearest $0.0001.
If the issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of an Ordinary Share, the Company shall round such fraction of an Ordinary
Share to the nearest whole share. The Company shall pay any and all transfer, stamp and similar taxes that may be payable with respect
to the issuance and delivery of Ordinary Shares upon conversion of any Conversion Amount.
(b) Mechanics
of Conversion.
(i) Optional
Conversion. To convert any Conversion Amount into Ordinary Shares on any date (a “Conversion Date”), the Holder shall
(A) transmit by email (or otherwise deliver) for receipt on or prior to 9:00 a.m. New York Time on such date a copy of an executed notice
of conversion in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I (the “Conversion Notice”) to the Company and (B) if required
by Section (3)(b)(iii), surrender this Note to a nationally recognized overnight delivery service for delivery to the Company (or an indemnification
undertaking reasonably satisfactory to the Company with respect to this Note in the case of its loss, theft or destruction). On or before
the first (1st) Trading Day following the date of receipt of a Conversion Notice (or such earlier date as required pursuant
to the Exchange Act or other applicable law, rule or regulation for the settlement of a trade initiated on the applicable Conversion Date
of such Ordinary Shares issuable pursuant to such Conversion Notice) (the “Share Delivery Date”), the Company shall (X)
if legends are not required to be placed on certificates or the book-entry position of the Ordinary Shares and provided that the Transfer
Agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company’s (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, instruct
such transfer agent to credit such aggregate number of Ordinary Shares to which the Holder shall be entitled to the Holder’s or its designee’s
balance account with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system or (Y) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the
DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, issue and deliver, to the address as specified in the Conversion Notice, a certificate
or book-entry position, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Ordinary Shares to which the Holder shall
be entitled, which certificates shall not bear any restrictive legends unless required pursuant to rules and regulations of the Commission.
If this Note is physically surrendered for conversion and the outstanding Principal of this Note is greater than the Principal portion
of the Conversion Amount being converted, then the Company shall, as soon as practicable and in no event later than three (3) Business
Days after receipt of this Note, issue and deliver at its own cost to the holder a new Note representing the outstanding Principal not
converted. The Person or Persons entitled to receive the Ordinary Shares issuable upon a conversion of this Note shall be treated for
all purposes as the record holder or holders of such Ordinary Shares upon the transmission of a Conversion Notice.
(ii) Company’s
Failure to Timely Convert. If the Company shall fail, for any reason or for no reason, on or prior to the applicable Share Delivery
Date to issue and deliver a certificate to the Holder or credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC for the number of Ordinary Shares
to which the Holder is entitled upon such Holder’s conversion of any Conversion Amount (a “Conversion Failure”), and
if on or after such Trading Day the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) Ordinary Shares to deliver in satisfaction
of a sale by the Holder of Ordinary Shares issuable upon such conversion that the Holder anticipated receiving from the Company (a “Buy-In”),
then the Company shall, within three (3) Business Days after the Holder’s request and in the Holder’s discretion, either (i) pay cash
to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions and other out of pocket expenses,
if any) for the Ordinary Shares so purchased (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to deliver
such certificate (and to issue such Ordinary Shares) shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Holder a
certificate or certificates representing such Ordinary Shares to which the Holder is entitled with respect to such Conversion Notice and
pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of Ordinary Shares
multiplied by (B) the Closing Price on the Conversion Date.
(iii) Book-Entry.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of any portion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof,
the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Company unless (A) the full Conversion Amount represented by
this Note is being converted or (B) the Holder has provided the Company with prior written notice (which notice may be included in a Conversion
Notice) requesting reissuance of this Note upon physical surrender of this Note. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing
the Principal and Interest converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the
Holder and the Company, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon conversion.
(c) Limitations
on Conversions, Beneficial Ownership. The Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Note to the extent that after
giving effect to such conversion, the Holder, together with any affiliate thereof, would beneficially own (as determined in accordance
with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of 4.99% of the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding
immediately after giving effect to such conversion. Since the Holder will not be obligated to report to the Company the number of Ordinary
Shares it may hold at the time of a conversion hereunder, unless the conversion at issue would result in the issuance of Ordinary Shares
in excess of 4.99% of the then outstanding Ordinary Shares without regard to any other shares which may be beneficially owned by the Holder
or an affiliate thereof, the Holder shall have the authority and obligation to determine whether the restriction contained in this Section
will limit any particular conversion hereunder and to the extent that the Holder determines that the limitation contained in this Section
applies, the determination of which portion of the Principal amount of this Note is convertible shall be the responsibility and obligation
of the Holder. If the Holder has delivered a Conversion Notice for a Principal amount of this Note that, without regard to any other shares
that the Holder or its affiliates may beneficially own, would result in the issuance in excess of the permitted amount hereunder, the
Company shall notify the Holder of this fact and shall honor the conversion for the maximum Principal amount permitted to be converted
on such Conversion Date in accordance with Section (3)(a) and, any Principal amount tendered for conversion in excess of the permitted
amount hereunder shall remain outstanding under this Note. The provisions of this Section may be waived by a Holder (but only as to itself
and not to any other Holder) upon not less than 65 days prior notice to the Company. Other Holders shall be unaffected by any such waiver.
(d) Other
Provisions.
(i) All
calculations under this Section (3) shall be rounded to the nearest $0.0001 or whole share.
(ii) So
long as this Note or any Other Notes remain outstanding, the Company shall have reserved from its duly authorized share capital, and shall
have instructed the Transfer Agent to irrevocably reserve, the maximum number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note
and the Other Notes (assuming for purposes hereof that (x) this Note and such Other Notes are convertible at the Floor Price as of the
date of determination, and (y) any such conversion shall not take into account any limitations on the conversion of the Note or Other
Notes set forth herein or therein (the “Required Reserve Amount”)), provided that at no time shall the number of Ordinary
Shares reserved pursuant to this Section (3)(d)(ii) be reduced other than pursuant to the conversion of this Note and the Other Notes
in accordance with their respective terms or reverse stock split. If at any time while this Note or any Other Notes remain outstanding,
the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved Ordinary Shares to satisfy the obligation to reserve for the
issuance the Required Reserve Amount, the Company will promptly take all corporate action necessary to propose to a meeting of its shareholders
an increase of its authorized share capital necessary to meet the Company’s obligations pursuant to this Debenture, recommending that
shareholders vote in favor of such an increase. The Company covenants that, upon issuance pursuant to conversion of this Note in accordance
with its terms, the Ordinary Shares, when issued, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
(iii) Nothing
herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue actual damages or declare an Event of Default pursuant to Section (2) herein for the Company’s
failure to deliver certificates representing Ordinary Shares upon conversion within the period specified herein and such Holder shall
have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance
and/or injunctive relief, in each case without the need to post a bond or provide other security. The exercise of any such rights shall
not prohibit the Holder from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or under applicable law.
(iv) Legal
Opinions. The Company is obligated to cause its legal counsel to deliver legal opinions to the Company’s transfer agent in connection
with any legend removal upon the expiration of any holding period or other requirement for which the Underlying Shares may bear legends
restricting the transfer thereof. To the extent that a legal opinion is not provided (either timely or at all), then, in addition to being
an Event of Default hereunder, the Company agrees to reimburse the Holder for all reasonable costs incurred by the Holder in connection
with any legal opinions paid for by the Holder in connection with the sale or transfer of the Underlying Ordinary Shares. The Holder shall
notify the Company of any such costs and expenses it incurs that are referred to in this section from time to time and all amounts owed
hereunder shall be promptly paid by the Company.
(e) Adjustment
of Conversion Price upon Subdivision or Combination of Ordinary Shares. If the Company, at any time while this Note is outstanding,
shall (i) pay a stock dividend or otherwise make a distribution or distributions on its Ordinary Shares or any other equity or equity
equivalent securities payable in Ordinary Shares, (ii) subdivide outstanding Ordinary Shares into a larger number of shares, (iii) combine
(including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding Ordinary Shares into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issue by reclassification
of Ordinary Shares any shares of capital stock of the Company, then each of the Fixed Price and the Floor Price shall be multiplied by
a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of Ordinary Shares (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding before such event
and of which the denominator shall be the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this
Section shall become effective, in the case of a dividend distribution, immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders
entitled to receive such dividend or distribution or, in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification, immediately after
the effective date of such subdivision, combination or re-classification.
(f) Adjustment
of Conversion Price upon Issuance of Ordinary Shares. If the Company, at any time while this Note is outstanding, issues or sells
any Ordinary Shares or Convertible Securities (other than shares issued or sold by the Company in connection with any Excluded Securities),
for a consideration per share (the “New Issuance Price”) less than a price equal to the Fixed Price in effect immediately
prior to such issue or sale (such price the “Applicable Price”) (the foregoing, a “Dilutive Issuance”),
then immediately after such Dilutive Issuance the Fixed Price then in effect shall be reduced to an amount equal to the New Issuance Price.
For the purposes hereof, if the Company in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities (other than shares issued or sold by
the Company in connection with any Excluded Securities) and the lowest price per share for which one Ordinary Share is issuable upon such
conversion or exchange or exercise thereof is less than the Applicable Price, then such Ordinary Share shall be deemed to be outstanding
and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities for such price per
share. No further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such Ordinary Share upon conversion or
exchange or exercise of such Convertible Securities.
(g) Other
Corporate Events. In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the consummation of any Fundamental
Transaction pursuant to which holders of Ordinary Shares are entitled to receive securities or other assets with respect to or in exchange
for Ordinary Shares (a “Corporate Event”), the Company shall make appropriate provision to ensure that the Holder will
thereafter have the right to receive upon a conversion of this Note, at the Holder’s option, (i) in addition to the Ordinary Shares receivable
upon such conversion, such securities or other assets to which the Holder would have been entitled with respect to such Ordinary Shares
had such Ordinary Shares been held by the Holder upon the consummation of such Corporate Event (without taking into account any limitations
or restrictions on the convertibility of this Note) or (ii) in lieu of the Ordinary Shares otherwise receivable upon such conversion,
such securities or other assets received by the holders of Ordinary Shares in connection with the consummation of such Corporate Event
in such amounts as the Holder would have been entitled to receive had this Note initially been issued with conversion rights for the form
of such consideration (as opposed to Ordinary Shares) at a conversion rate for such consideration commensurate with the Conversion Price.
Provision made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be in a form and substance satisfactory to the Required Holders. The provisions
of this Section 3(g) shall apply similarly and equally to successive Corporate Events and shall be applied without regard to any limitations
on the conversion or redemption of this Note.
(h) Whenever
the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to this Section (3), the Company shall promptly provide the Holder with a written notice setting
forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.
(i) In
case of any (1) merger or consolidation of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company with or into another Person, or (2) sale by the
Company or any Subsidiary of the Company of more than one-half of the assets of the Company in one or a series of related transactions,
a Holder shall have the right to (A) exercise any rights under Section (3)(b), (B) convert the aggregate amount of this Note then outstanding
into the shares of stock and other securities, cash and property receivable upon or deemed to be held by holders of Ordinary Shares following
such merger, consolidation or sale, and such Holder shall be entitled upon such event or series of related events to receive such amount
of securities, cash and property as the Ordinary Shares into which such aggregate Principal amount of this Note could have been converted
immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or sales would have been entitled, or (C) in the case of a merger or consolidation, require
the surviving entity to issue to the Holder a convertible Note with a Principal amount equal to the aggregate Principal amount of this
Note then held by such Holder, plus all accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts owing thereon, which such newly issued convertible
Note shall have terms identical (including with respect to conversion) to the terms of this Note, and shall be entitled to all of the
rights and privileges of the Holder of this Note set forth herein and the agreements pursuant to which this Note was issued. In the case
of clause (C), the conversion price applicable for the newly issued shares of convertible preferred stock or convertible debentures shall
be based upon the amount of securities, cash and property that each Ordinary Share would receive in such transaction and the Conversion
Price in effect immediately prior to the effectiveness or closing date for such transaction. The terms of any such merger, sale or consolidation
shall include such terms so as to continue to give the Holder the right to receive the securities, cash and property set forth in this
Section upon any conversion or redemption following such event. This provision shall similarly apply to successive such events.
(4) REISSUANCE
OF THIS NOTE.
(a) Transfer.
If this Note is to be transferred, the Holder shall surrender this Note to the Company, whereupon the Company will forthwith issue and

brought by the Company against the Holder arising out of or based upon this Note or any matter relating to this Note, or any other Transaction
Document, or any contemplated transaction, shall be brought in a court only in the Governing Jurisdiction. The Company shall not file
any counterclaim against the Holder in any suit, claim, action, litigation or proceeding brought by the Holder against the Company in
a jurisdiction outside of the Governing Jurisdiction unless under the rules of the court in which the Holder brought such suit, claim,
action, litigation or proceeding the counterclaim is mandatory, and not permissive, and would be considered waived unless filed as a counterclaim
in the suit, claim, action, litigation or proceeding instituted by the Holder against the Company. The Company agrees that any forum outside

against the Holder in any court outside the Governing Jurisdiction should be dismissed or transferred to a court located in the Governing
Jurisdiction. Furthermore, the Company irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it will not bring or commence any suit, claim, action,
litigation or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against the

may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

of such provision or of any breach of any other provision of this Note. The failure of the Holder to insist upon strict adherence to any
term of this Note on one or more occasions shall not be considered a waiver or deprive that party of the right thereafter to insist upon
strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Note. Any waiver must be in writing.
(11) If
any provision of this Note is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the balance of this Note shall remain in effect, and if any provision
is inapplicable to any person or circumstance, it shall nevertheless remain applicable to all other persons and circumstances. If it shall
be found that any interest or other amount deemed interest due hereunder shall violate applicable laws governing usury, the applicable
rate of interest due hereunder shall automatically be lowered to equal the maximum permitted rate of interest. The Company covenants (to
the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the

any portion of the Principal of or interest on this Note as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force,
or which may affect the covenants or the performance of this indenture, and the Company (to the extent it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly
waives all benefits or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or imped the
