The Company and the Holder hereby agree that no additional consideration is payable in connection with the issuance of the Rights or the exercise of the Rights.

11.2          Exercise of Rights. Subject to the terms hereof, the exercise of the Rights may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the date hereof by delivery to the Company (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered Holder at the address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Company) of a duly executed PDF copy of the Notice of Issuance Form annexed hereto as Exhibit A (each, a “Notice of Issuance”, and the corresponding date thereof, the “Exercise Date”). Partial exercises of the Rights resulting in issuances of a portion of the total number of Excess Exchange Shares available thereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Excess Exchange Shares purchasable thereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Excess Exchange Shares issued. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Excess Exchange Shares issued and the date of such issuances. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Issuance within one (1) Trading Day of receipt of such notice. The Holder acknowledges and agrees that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following each exercise of the Rights issued hereunder and the issuance of a portion of the Excess Exchange Shares pursuant thereto, the number of Excess Exchange Shares available for issuance pursuant to the Rights issued hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated in the recitals hereof or on the signature page hereof.

11.3          Delivery of Excess Exchange Shares. The Excess Exchange Shares issued hereunder shall be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s prime broker with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Excess Exchange Shares to or resale of the Excess Exchange Shares by the Holder or (B) the Excess Exchange Shares are eligible for resale by the Holder without volume or manner-of-sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144, and otherwise by physical delivery to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Issuance by the date that is two (2) Trading Days after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Issuance (such date, the “Share Delivery Deadline”). For the sake of clarity, the Parties acknowledge that, as of the date of this Agreement, the Excess Exchange Shares are eligible for resale by the Holder without volume or manner-of-sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144. The Excess Exchange Shares shall be deemed to have been issued, and Holder or any other person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of such shares for all purposes, as of the date the Rights have been exercised.

11.4         Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Excess Exchange Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such certificate, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates shall be issued in the name of the Holder. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Issuance.

11.5         Authorized Shares. The Company covenants that, during the period the Rights are outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Excess Exchange Shares upon the exercise of the Rights. The Company further covenants that its issuance of the Rights shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for the Excess Exchange Shares upon the due exercise of the Rights. The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Excess Exchange Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Principal Market upon which the Common Stock may be listed. The Company covenants that all Excess Exchange Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the Rights represented by this Agreement will, upon exercise of the Rights, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by the Company in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).

11.6         Impairment. Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Agreement, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of the Holder as set forth in this Agreement against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value of any Excess Exchange Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (ii) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable Excess Exchange Shares upon the exercise of the Rights and (iii) use reasonable best efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

11.7         Authorizations. Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Excess Exchange Shares for which the Rights provide for, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.

11.8         Limitations on Exercise. The Company shall not effect the exercise of any Rights, and the Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of any Rights pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any such exercise shall be null and void and treated as if never made, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, the Holder together with the other Attribution Parties collectively would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”) of the shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and the other Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock held by the Holder and all other Attribution Parties plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Rights issued hereunder with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of the Rights beneficially owned by the Holder or any of the other Attribution Parties and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any convertible notes or convertible preferred stock or warrants) beneficially owned by the Holder or any other Attribution Party subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained in this Section 11.8. For purposes of this Section 11.8, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act. For purposes of determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock the Holder may acquire upon the exercise of the Rights without exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Current Report on Form 8-K or other public filing with the SEC, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent, if any, setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (in each case, the “Reported Outstanding Share Number”). If the Company receives a Notice of Issuance from the Holder at a time when the actual number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is less than the Reported Outstanding Share Number, the Company shall notify the Holder in writing of the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding and, to the extent that such Notice of Issuance would otherwise cause the Holder’s beneficial ownership, as determined pursuant to this Section 11.8, to exceed the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, the Holder must notify the Company of a reduced number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased pursuant to such Notice of Issuance. For any reason at any time, upon the written request of the Holder, the Company shall within one (1) Business Day confirm in writing or by electronic mail to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including the Rights, by the Holder and any other Attribution Party since the date as of which the Reported Outstanding Share Number was reported. In the event that the issuance of shares of Common Stock to the Holder upon exercise of the Rights results in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties being deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, more than the Beneficial Ownership Limitation of the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock (as determined under Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act), the number of shares so issued by which the Holder’s and the other Attribution Parties’ aggregate beneficial ownership exceeds the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (the “Excess Shares”) shall be deemed null and void and shall be cancelled ab initio, and the Holder shall not have the power to vote or to transfer the Excess Shares. Upon delivery of a written notice to the Company, the Holder may from time to time increase (with such increase not effective until the sixty-first (61^st) day after delivery of such notice) or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% as specified in such notice; provided that (i) any such increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the sixty-first (61^st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder and the other Attribution Parties and not to any other holder of Rights that is not an Attribution Party of the Holder. For purposes of clarity, the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms of the Rights hereunder in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation shall not be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Holder for any purpose including for purposes of Section 13(d) or Rule 16a-1(a)(1) of the 1934 Act. No prior inability to exercise any Rights pursuant to this paragraph shall have any effect on the applicability of the provisions of this paragraph with respect to any subsequent determination of exercisability. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 11.8 to the extent necessary to correct this paragraph (or any portion of this paragraph) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended beneficial ownership limitation contained in this Section 11.8 or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitation contained in this paragraph may not be waived and shall apply to a successor holder of Rights.

11.9          Closing of Books. The Company will not close its stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of the Rights, pursuant to the terms hereof.

11.10       Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while the Rights exist: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues by reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then in each case the number of Excess Exchange Shares issuable upon exercise of the Rights shall be proportionately adjusted. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 11.10 shall become effective immediately upon the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution (provided that if the declaration of such dividend or distribution is rescinded or otherwise cancelled, then such adjustment shall be reversed upon notice to the Holder of the termination of such proposed declaration or distribution as to any unexercised portion of the Rights at the time of such rescission or cancellation) and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

11.11        [Intentionally Omitted].

11.12        Subsequent Rights Offerings. If Section 11.10 above does not apply, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Convertible Securities, options or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of the Rights (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).

11.13        Notice to Allow Exercise of Right. If at any time while the Rights remain outstanding, (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Common Stock, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock, (C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property, or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be mailed to the Holder at least 10 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; provided that the failure to mail such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. To the extent that any notice provided hereunder constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the SEC pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K. The Holder shall remain entitled to exercise the Rights during the period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein.

11.14       No Rights as Stockholder Until Exercise. Each Right does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof.

11.15       Transferability. Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws, the Rights and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, upon written assignment in the form reasonably agreed to by the Company and the Holder duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer of this Agreement delivered to the principal office of the Company or its designated agent. Upon such assignment and, if required, such payment, the Company shall enter into a new agreement with the assignee or assignees, as applicable, and this Agreement shall promptly be cancelled. Any Right, if properly assigned in accordance herewith, may be exercised by a new Holder for the issue of Excess Exchange Shares without having a new agreement executed.

11.16       Attribution Parties. For purpose of this Section 11, “Attribution Parties” means, collectively, the following Persons and entities: (i) any investment vehicle, including, any funds, feeder funds or managed accounts, currently, or from time to time after the date hereof, directly or indirectly managed or advised by a Holder’s investment manager or any of its Affiliates or principals, (ii) any direct or indirect Affiliates of such Holder or any of the foregoing, (iii) any Person acting or who could be deemed to be acting as a “group” (as that term is used in Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act and as defined in Rule 13d-5 thereunder) together with such Holder or any of the foregoing and (iv) any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of the Company’s Common Stock would or could be aggregated with such Holder’s and the other Attribution Parties for purposes of Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act. For clarity, the purpose of the foregoing is to subject collectively such Holder and all other Attribution Parties to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation.

EXHIBIT A

NOTICE OF ISSUANCE

The undersigned holder hereby exercises the rights (the “Rights”) to receive _________________ of the shares of Common Stock (the “Excess Exchange Shares”) of FuelCell Energy, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), established pursuant to that certain Exchange Agreement, dated February 21, 2019, by and between the Company and the investor signatory thereto (the “Exchange Agreement”).
