STATE OF DELAWARE
CERTIFICATE OF AMENDMENT
OF CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION
 
 
ENDRA Life Sciences Inc., a corporation duly organized and existing under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “Corporation”), does hereby certify that:
 
 
FIRST: The Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation is hereby amended by adding the following paragraph to the end of Article FOURTH thereof which shall read in its entirety as follows:
 
“Upon the effectiveness of this Certificate of Amendment, (the “Effective Time”), each share of the Common Stock, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, will be automatically reclassified as and converted into 0.2857 of a share of Common Stock; provided, however, that no fractional shares shall be issued to stockholders as a result of the foregoing reclassification and that in lieu thereof, the Corporation shall, after aggregating all fractions of a share to which a holder would otherwise be entitled, round any resulting fractional shares up to the nearest whole share. Any stock certificate that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, represented shares of Common Stock will, from and after the Effective Time, automatically and without the necessity of presenting the same for exchange, represent the number of shares of Common Stock as equals the product obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock represented by such certificate immediately prior to the Effective Time by 0.2857, but giving effect to the rounding of fractional shares provided for in the immediately preceding sentence.”
 
SECOND : The foregoing amendment was duly adopted in accordance with the provisions of Sections 242 and 228 (by the written or electronic consent of the stockholders of the Corporation) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.
 
THIRD : This Certificate of Amendment shall become effective at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on May 8, 2017.
 
In Witness Whereof, said corporation has caused this certificate to be signed this 8th day of May 2017.

FOURTH: The total number of shares of stock that the Corporation shall have authority to issue shall be 60,000,000 shares, consisting of 50,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”). Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock then outstanding, the number of authorized shares of the Common Stock or Preferred Stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the stock of the Corporation entitled to vote thereon, irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL, and no vote of the holders of any of the Common Stock or Preferred Stock voting separately as a class shall be required therefor.
 
A.
COMMON STOCK
 
1.    GENERAL. All shares of Common Stock will be identical and will entitle the holders thereof to the same rights, powers and preferences. The rights, powers and preferences of the holders of the Common Stock are subject to and qualified by the rights, powers and preferences of holders of the Preferred Stock.
 
2.   DIVIDENDS. Dividends may be declared and paid on the Common Stock from funds lawfully available therefor as and when determined by the Board of Directors and subject to any preferential dividend rights of any then outstanding Preferred Stock.
 
3.   DISSOLUTION, LIQUIDATION OR WINDING UP. In the event of any dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, each issued and outstanding share of Common Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to receive an equal portion of the net assets of the Corporation available for distribution to the holders of Common Stock, subject to any preferential rights of any then outstanding Preferred Stock.
 
 
2
 
 
4.   VOTING RIGHTS. Except as otherwise required by law or this Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (“Certificate of Incorporation”), each holder of Common Stock shall have one vote in respect of each share of stock held of record by such holder on the books of the Corporation for the election of directors and on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders of the Corporation. Except as otherwise required by law or provided herein, holders of Common Stock shall vote together with holders of the Preferred Stock as a single class, subject to any special or preferential voting rights of any then outstanding Preferred Stock. There shall be no cumulative voting.
 
B.
PREFERRED STOCK
 
The Preferred Stock may be issued in one or more series at such time or times and for such consideration or considerations as the Board of Directors of the Corporation may determine. Each series shall be so designated as to distinguish the shares thereof from the shares of all other series and classes.
 
The Board of Directors is expressly authorized to provide for the issuance of all or any shares of the undesignated Preferred Stock in one or more series, each with such designations, preferences, voting powers (or special, preferential or no voting powers), relative, participating, optional or other special rights and such qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof as shall be stated in the resolution or resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors to create such series, and a certificate of said resolution or resolutions (a “Certificate of Designation”) shall be filed in accordance with the DGCL. The authority of the Board of Directors with respect to each such series shall include, without limitation of the foregoing, the right to provide that the shares of each such series may be: (i) subject to redemption at such time or times and at such price or prices; (ii) entitled to receive dividends (which may be cumulative or non-cumulative) at such rates, on such conditions, and at such times, and payable in preference to, or in such relation to, the dividends payable on any other class or classes or any other series; (iii) entitled to such rights upon the dissolution of, or upon any distribution of the assets of, the Corporation; (iv) convertible into, or exchangeable for, shares of any other class or classes of stock, or of any other series of the same or any other class or classes of stock of the Corporation at such price or prices or at such rates of exchange and with such adjustments, if any; (v) entitled to the benefit of such limitations, if any, on the issuance of additional shares of such series or shares of any other series of Preferred Stock; or (vi) entitled to such other preferences, powers, qualifications and rights, all as the Board of Directors may deem advisable and as are not inconsistent with law and the provisions of this Certificate of Incorporation.
 
 
3
 
 
FIFTH:
 
1.   NUMBER OF DIRECTORS. The number of directors of the Corporation shall be determined exclusively by resolution adopted by a majority of the Whole Board. For purposes of this Certificate of Incorporation, the term “Whole Board” means the total number of authorized directors whether or not there exists any vacancies in previously authorized directorships. 
 
2.   ELECTION OF DIRECTORS. The directors shall be elected at the annual meeting of stockholders by such stockholders as have the right to vote on such election. Directors need not be stockholders of the Corporation. Unless required by the Bylaws, the election of the Board of Directors need not be by written ballot.
 
 
4
 
 
3.   VACANCIES. Any vacancy in the Board of Directors, however occurring, including a vacancy resulting from an enlargement of the Board of Directors, may be filled only by vote of a majority of the directors then in office, even if less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director.
 
SIXTH: The following provisions are included for the management of the business and the conduct of the affairs of the Corporation, and for further definition, limitation and regulation of the powers of the Corporation and of its Board of Directors and stockholders:
 
1.   The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board of Directors of the Corporation.
 
2.   The Board of Directors of the Corporation is expressly authorized to adopt, amend or repeal the Bylaws of the Corporation. The stockholders shall also have the power to adopt, amend or repeal the Bylaws of the Corporation; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that, in addition to any vote of the holders of any class or series of stock of the Corporation required by law or by this Certificate of Incorporation, the amendment of the Bylaws by the Corporation’s stockholders shall require the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds (66 2/3%) of the voting power of all of the then outstanding shares of the capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class.
 
3.   The books of the Corporation may be kept at such place within or without the State of Delaware as the Bylaws of the Corporation may provide or as may be designated from time to time by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.
 
SEVENTH: Special meetings of stockholders (i) may be called on the order of a majority of the Whole Board, the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer or the President (in the absence of a chief executive officer), and (ii) shall be called by the Secretary upon written request of the holders of record of at least twenty percent (20%) of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Corporation at the time such request is validly submitted by the holders of such requisite percentage of such outstanding shares, subject to and in compliance with this Article SEVENTH and the bylaws of the Corporation. Advance notice of stockholder nominations for the election of directors of the Corporation and of business to be brought by stockholders before any meeting of stockholders of the Corporation shall be given in the manner provided in the Bylaws of the Corporation. Business transacted at special meetings of stockholders shall be confined to the purpose or purposes stated in the notice of meeting.
 
 
5
 
 
EIGHTH: The Corporation shall indemnify (and advance expenses to) its officers and directors to the full extent permitted by the DGCL, as amended from time to time.
 
NINTH: No director of the Corporation shall be personally liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, for any act or omission, except that a director may be liable (i) for breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the DGCL, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. If the DGCL is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the liability of the directors shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as so amended. The elimination and limitation of liability provided herein shall continue after a director has ceased to occupy such position as to acts or omissions occurring during such director’s term or terms of office. Any amendment, repeal or modification of this Article NINTH shall not adversely affect any right of protection of a director of the Corporation existing at the time of such repeal or modification.
 
 
6
 
 
TENTH: Unless the Corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware shall be the sole and exclusive forum for all “internal corporate claims.” “Internal corporate claims” means claims, including claims in the right of the Corporation, (i) that are based upon a violation of a duty by a current or former director or officer or stockholder in such capacity or (ii) as to which Title 8 of the Delaware Code confers jurisdiction upon the Court of Chancery, except for, as to each of (i) through (ii) above, any claim as to which the Court of Chancery determines that there is an indispensable party not subject to the jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery (and the indispensable party does not consent to the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery within ten days following such determination), which is vested in the exclusive jurisdiction of a court or forum other than the Court of Chancery, or for which the Court of Chancery does not have subject matter jurisdiction. If any provision or provisions of this Article TENTH shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable as applied to any person or entity or circumstance for any reason whatsoever, then, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the validity, legality and enforceability of such provisions in any other circumstance and of the remaining provisions of this Article TENTH (including, without limitation, each portion of any sentence of this Article TENTH containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable that is not itself held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) and the application of such provision to other persons or entities and circumstances shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
 
 
7
 
 
ELEVENTH: The Corporation reserves the right to amend, alter, change or repeal any provision contained in this Certificate of Incorporation, in the manner now or hereafter prescribed by statute, and all rights conferred upon stockholders herein are granted subject to this reservation; provided, however, that, notwithstanding any other provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or any provision of law that might otherwise permit a lesser vote or no vote, but in addition to any vote of the holders of any class or series of the stock of the Corporation required by law or by this Certificate of Incorporation, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the voting power of the outstanding shares of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, shall be required to amend or repeal, or adopt any provision of this Certificate of Incorporation inconsistent with Article FIFTH, Article SIXTH, Article SEVENTH, Article NINTH, Article TENTH or this Article ELEVENTH.

Dear Francois:
 
ENDRA Life Sciences Inc. (the “Company”) is pleased to offer you continued employment on the following terms:
 
1.   Position . Your title will be Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”), and you will report directly to the Board. This is a full-time position. While you render services to the Company, you will not engage in any other employment, consulting or other business activity (whether full-time or part-time) that would create a conflict of interest with the Company. By signing this letter agreement, you confirm to the Company that you have no contractual commitments or other legal obligations that would prohibit you from performing your duties for the Company.
 
2.   Term . Subject to the remaining provisions of this paragraph, this letter agreement will be for an initial term that begins as of the date first set forth above and continues in effect through December 31, 2019 (the “Initial Term”) and, unless terminated sooner, will continue on a year-to-year basis after the Initial Term (each year, a “Renewal Term”). If either party elects not to renew this letter agreement, that party must give a written notice of termination to the other party at least 90 days before the expiration of the then-current Initial Term or Renewal Term. If one party provides the other with a notice of termination, no further automatic extensions will occur and this letter agreement will terminate at the end of the then-existing Initial Term or Renewal Term, and such termination will not result in any entitlement to compensation pursuant to Section 9 below or otherwise.
 
3.   Cash Compensation .

This salary will be subject to periodic review and adjustments at the Board’s discretion. In addition, you will be eligible to receive an annual bonus to be paid based on attainment of Company and individual performance objectives to be established annually by the Board. With respect to 2016, the annual bonus target to be paid if all goals are achieved will be a cash payment equal to 35% of your base salary earned in 2016 and will be based on the realization of milestones determined and approved by the Board.  
 
4.   Employee Benefits . As a regular employee of the Company, you will be eligible to participate in a number of Company-sponsored benefits. You will receive 15 days of paid time off (PTO) per calendar year, in accordance with Company policy in effect from time to time. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, while you are an employee of the Company, the Company will provide you life insurance, with you to designate the beneficiary thereunder, in an amount equal to your base salary as in effect on the date of this letter agreement and as in effect on the first business day of each calendar year thereafter. You will also be eligible to participate in a long-term disability insurance plan sponsored by the Company.

5.   IPO Stock Option .

(e)   Accelerated Vesting . If your Separation from Service (as defined in the Plan) is the result of an involuntary discharge by the Company that is without Cause (as defined in the Plan) and is not the result of your death or Disability (as defined in the Plan), then any shares subject to the IPO Option that are scheduled to vest within 12 months of such Separation from Service will vest immediately upon such Separation from Service, and any remaining unvested portion of the IPO Option will terminate immediately.
 
(f)   Accelerated Vesting upon Change in Control . If your Separation from Service is the result of an involuntary discharge by the Company that is without Cause, and is not the result of your death or Disability, and is within 12 months following a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan), then all shares subject to the IPO Option will vest immediately upon such Separation from Service.
 
(g)   Forfeiture of Unvested Options . If your Separation from Service is for any reason other than an involuntary discharge by the Company that is without Cause, the unvested portion of the IPO Option will immediately terminate.

7.   Time and Place of Employment; Travel .

Additionally, upon the Company’s establishment of a new corporate headquarters outside the state of Michigan, you will be expected to relocate your permanent residence to such general location. In connection with your relocation, the Company agrees to reimburse your reasonable moving expenses and up to two months for temporary housing, such amounts to be ultimately determined by the Board. The Company requires presentation of receipts or an itemized accounting prior to making any reimbursements under this paragraph.
 
8.   Employment Relationship . Your employment with the Company will continue to be “at will,” meaning that either you or the Company may terminate your employment at any time and for any reason, with or without cause. Any contrary representations that may have been made to you are superseded by this letter agreement. This is the full and complete agreement between you and the Company on this term. Although your job duties, title, compensation and benefits, as well as the Company’s personnel policies and procedures, may change from time to time, the “at will” nature of your employment may only be changed in an express written agreement signed by you and a duly authorized officer of the Company (other than you).
 
9.   Certain Payments upon Separation from Service . If you are terminated by the Company without Cause, then, contingent upon your execution, delivery and non-revocation of a release in form and substance satisfactory to the Company and consistent with the Company’s standard release agreement, which contains a full release of all claims against the Company and certain other provisions (the “Release Agreement”), including a reaffirmation of the covenants in your Confidential Information, Assignment of Inventions, and Non-Solicitation Agreement, you will be entitled to (i) 12 months’ (or 24 months’ if such Separation from Service occurs within one year following a Change in Control) continuation of your current base salary and (ii) a lump sum payment equal to 12 months (or 24 months if such Separation from Service occurs within one year following a Change in Control) of COBRA premiums based on the terms of Company’s group health plan and your coverage under such plan as of the date of your Separation from Service (regardless of any COBRA election actually made by you or the actual COBRA coverage period under the Company’s group health plan). The Company’s obligations under this paragraph are subject to the requirements and time periods set forth in this paragraph and in the Release Agreement. Prior to receiving the payments described in this paragraph, you must execute the Release Agreement on or before the date 21 days (or such longer period to the extent required by law) after your Separation from Service. If you fail to timely execute and remit the Release Agreement, you waive any right to the payments provided under this paragraph. Payments under this paragraph will commence within 15 days of your execution and delivery of the Release Agreement, provided that you do not revoke the Release Agreement. Your rights following a Separation from Service under the terms of any Company plan, whether tax-qualified or not, that are not specifically addressed in this letter agreement, will be subject to the terms of such plan, and this letter agreement will have no effect upon such terms except as specifically provided herein. Except as specifically provided in this paragraph, you will not have any further rights to compensation under this letter agreement following your Separation from Service.

ENDRA Life Sciences Inc. (the “Company”) is pleased to offer you continued employment on the following terms:
 
1.   Position . Your title will be Chief Technology Officer of the Company, and you will report directly to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”). This is a full-time position. While you render services to the Company, you will not engage in any other employment, consulting or other business activity (whether full-time or part-time) that would create a conflict of interest with the Company. By signing this letter agreement, you confirm to the Company that you have no contractual commitments or other legal obligations that would prohibit you from performing your duties for the Company.
 
2.   Term . Subject to the remaining provisions of this paragraph, this letter agreement will be for an initial term that begins as of the date first set forth above and continues in effect through December 31, 2019 (the “Initial Term”) and, unless terminated sooner, will continue on a year-to-year basis after the Initial Term (each year, a “Renewal Term”). If either party elects not to renew this letter agreement, that party must give a written notice of termination to the other party at least 90 days before the expiration of the then-current Initial Term or Renewal Term. If one party provides the other with a notice of termination, no further automatic extensions will occur and this letter agreement will terminate at the end of the then-existing Initial Term or Renewal Term, and such termination will not result in any entitlement to compensation pursuant to Section 9 below or otherwise.
 
3.   Cash Compensation . The Company will pay you a base salary at an annual rate of $245,000, in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll schedule and subject to applicable deductions and withholdings. This salary will be subject to periodic review and adjustments at the Board’s discretion. In addition, you will be eligible to receive an annual bonus to be paid based on attainment of Company and individual performance objectives to be established annually by the Board. With respect to 2016, the annual bonus target to be paid if all goals are achieved will be a cash payment equal to 22% of your base salary earned in 2016 and will be based on the realization of milestones determined and approved by the Board.  
 
4.   Employee Benefits . As a regular employee of the Company, you will be eligible to participate in a number of Company-sponsored benefits. You will receive 15 days of paid time off (PTO) per calendar year, in accordance with Company policy in effect from time to time. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, while you are an employee of the Company, the Company will provide you life insurance, with you to designate the beneficiary thereunder, in an amount equal to your base salary as in effect on the date of this letter agreement and as in effect on the first business day of each calendar year thereafter.
