Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement

On October 18, 2018, IntelGenx Technologies Corp. (the “Company”) agreed to issue and sell to investors a total of 17,144,314 units (the “Units”) at a price of $0.70 per Unit (the “Offering Price”) for gross proceeds of approximately $12 million (the “Offering”). Each Unit consists of one share of common stock of the Company and one half of one warrant (a “Warrant”) each whole Warrant to purchase one share of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $1.00 per share. The Warrants will be exercisable immediately and will expire on the third anniversary of the date of their issuance.

The Offering was made on a best efforts basis in the United States and the Canadian provinces of British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario and Québec. H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (“Wainwright”) acted as the exclusive agent for the Units offered in the United States. Echelon Wealth Partners Inc. (“Echelon” and, together with Wainwright, the “Placement Agents”) acted as the exclusive placement agent for the Units offered in Canada.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering for its Phase 2a Montelukast study, its Tadalafil 505(b)(2) submission to U.S. Food and Drug Administration, and working capital.

The closing of the Offering is expected to take place on or about October 22, 2018, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

The sale of Units to certain investors in the United States will be made through securities purchase agreements (the “Securities Purchase Agreements”) entered into directly with certain institutional investors at the investor’s option. The Units (and shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and Placement Agent Warrants) will be issued pursuant to an effective Shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on September 24, 2018 and subsequently declared effective on October 15, 2018 (File No. 333- 227498), as amended. The Company has filed a prospectus supplement with the SEC in connection with the sale of the Units.

The Securities Purchase Agreements contain customary representations, warranties and covenants by the Company, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company, including for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, other obligations of the parties and termination provisions.

Pursuant to the Placement Agent Agreements, the Company will pay the Placement Agents (pro rata based on the sales made by such Placement Agent) a cash transaction fee equal to 7% of the aggregate gross proceeds to the Company from the sale of Units in the Offering. The Company will issue to the Placement Agents (pro rata based on the sales made by such Placement Agent) compensation warrants (the “Placement Agent Warrants”) to purchase a number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to 7% of the number of shares of the Company’s common stock sold in the Offering. The Placement Agent Warrants are exercisable at a price of $0.875 and expire on October 22, 2021. As required by FINRA, the Placement Agent Warrants issued to Wainwright are subject to a 180-day lock-up, subject to certain customary exceptions.

The Company has granted Echelon an over-allotment option exercisable, in whole or in part, at the sole discretion of Echelon, at any time prior to 5:00 p.m. (Montreal time) on the date that is the 30th day after the closing of the Offering, to purchase additional Units and/or any combination of common stock and/or Warrants in an amount representing up to an additional 15% of the number of Units sold pursuant to the Offering, at the Offering Price to cover over-allocations, if any, and for market stabilization purposes.


The legal opinion of Dorsey & Whitney LLP relating to the legality of the issuance and sale of the Units and the common stock and Warrants included therein is attached as Exhibit 5.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

The foregoing is a summary of certain material terms and conditions of the Placement Agent Agreements, the Warrants, the Securities Purchase Agreements and are not a complete discussion of such agreements. Accordingly, the foregoing is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Placement Agent Agreements, Form of Warrant and Form of Securities Purchase Agreement attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K in Exhibits 1.1, 1.2, 4.1 and 10.1 respectively, and incorporated herein by reference.

Warning Concerning Forward Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains statements which constitute forward looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other securities laws. These forward looking statements are based upon the Company’s present intent, beliefs or expectations, but forward looking statements are not guaranteed to occur and may not occur for various reasons, including some reasons which are beyond the Company’s control. For example, this Current Report on Form 8-K states that the Offering is expected to close on or about October 22, 2018. In fact, the closing of the Offering is subject to various conditions and contingencies as are customary in securities purchase agreements in the United States and Canada. If these conditions are not satisfied or the specified contingencies do not occur, this Offering may not close. For this reason, among others, you should not place undue reliance upon the Company’s forward looking statements. Except as required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation to revise or update any forward looking statements in order to reflect any event or circumstance that may arise after the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K.

            Subject to the terms and conditions herein (this “ Agreement ”), IntelGenx Technologies Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “ Company ”), hereby agrees to sell up to an aggregate of up to $12,001,020 of registered securities of the Company, including, but not limited to, up to 17,144,314 shares (the “ Shares ”) of the Company’s common stock, $0.00001 par value per share (the "Common Stock”), and up to 8,572,157 Common Stock purchase warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock (the “ Warrants ” and the shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants, the “ Warrant Shares ”, directly to various investors (each, an “ Investor ” and, collectively, the “ Investors ” and the Investors in the United States, the “ U.S. Investors ”) through H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (“ Wainwright ” or “U.S. Placement Agent”) and, by separate Placement Agency Agreement (“ Canadian PAA ”), Echelon Wealth Partners Inc. (“ Echelon ” or “ Canada Placement Agent ”) (the U.S. Placement Agent and Canada Placement Agent, collectively, the “ Placement Agents ”), as placement agents. The documents executed and delivered by the Company and the U.S. Investors in connection with the Offering (as defined below), including, without limitation, a securities purchase agreement (the “ Purchase Agreement ”), shall be collectively referred to herein as the “ U.S. Transaction Documents .” The Placement Agents may retain other brokers or dealers to act as subagents or selected-dealers on its behalf in connection with the Offering. Should any changes be made to the Canadian PAA after the date hereof, the Company shall provide notice to the U.S. Placement Agent of any changes to the Canadian PAA along with the relevant details of such changes.

            In addition, Wainwright acknowledges that, pursuant to the Canadian PAA, the Company has granted to the Canadian Placement Agent an option (the “ Over-Allotment Option ”) exercisable in whole or in part at any time up to and including the date that is 30 days following the Closing Date (as defined below), to purchase up to an additional 2,571,647 Shares and/or up to an additional 1,285,824 Warrants of the Company (collectively, the “ Over-Allotment Securities ”, and together with the Shares, Warrants and Warrant Shares, the “ Securities ”), upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, to cover over-allotments. The Company shall notify Wainwright upon any exercise of the Over-Allotment Option.

            The U.S. Placement Agent shall be the exclusive placement agent in connection with the offering and sale by the Company of the Securities in the United States (such placement in the United States, the “ U.S. Placement ”) and the Canada Placement Agent shall be the exclusive placement agent in connection with the offering and sale by the Company of the Securities in Canada (such placement in Canada, the “ Canada Placement ”). The Placement Agents will act on a reasonable best efforts basis and the Company agrees and acknowledges that there is no guarantee of the successful placement of the Securities, or any portion thereof, in the prospective Offering. The Placement Agents shall offer the Securities in accordance with all applicable securities laws. Under no circumstances will the Placement Agents or any of their respective “Affiliates” (as defined herein) be obligated to underwrite or purchase any of the Securities for its own account or otherwise provide any financing. The Placement Agents shall act solely as the Company’s agent and not as principal. The Placement Agents shall have no authority to bind the Company with respect to any prospective offer to purchase Securities and the Company shall have the sole right to accept offers to purchase Securities and may reject any such offer, in whole or in part.

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, payment of the purchase price for, and delivery of, the Securities shall be made at one or more closings (each a “ Closing ” and the date on which each Closing occurs, a “ Closing Date ” which term shall also include each Over-Allotment Option Closing Date). As compensation for services rendered, on each Closing Date or Over-Allotment Option Closing Date, as the case may be, the Company shall pay to the Placement Agents the fees and expenses set forth below:

  (i)

A cash fee equal to 7% of the gross proceeds received by the Company from the sale of the Securities at the closing of the Offering (the “ Closing ”), which cash fee shall be paid to the Placement Agents on a pro-rata basis based on sales by such Placement Agent in the Offering, provided that, solely with respect to sales in the Offering to the parties listed on Schedule A here (the “ Identified Investors ”), such cash fee shall equal 3.5% of the gross proceeds received by the Company from the Identified Investors and shall be paid to the Placement Agents on a pro-rata basis based on sales by such Placement Agent in the Offering to the Identified Investors. For greater certainty, fees for any sales to purchasers resident in Canada will be for the account of the Canadian Placement Agent and fees for any sales to purchasers resident in the United States will be for the account of the U.S. Placement Agent.

     
  (ii)

Such number of Common Stock purchase warrants (the “Placement Agent Warrants”) to Placement Agents or their respective designees at each Closing to purchase shares of Common Stock (the “ Placement Agent Shares ”) equal to 7% of the aggregate number of Shares sold in the Offering, which Placement Agent Warrants shall be issued to the Placement Agents on a pro-rata basis based on sales by such Placement Agent in the Offering, provided that, solely with respect to sales in the Offering to the Identified Investors, such Placement Agent Warrants shall equal 3.5% of the Shares sold in the Offering to the Identified Investors and shall be issued to the Placement Agents on a pro- rata basis based on sales by such Placement Agent in the Offering to the Identified Investors. The Placement Agent Warrants shall have the same terms as the warrants issued to the Investors in the Offering except that the exercise price shall be $0.875 (125% of the public offering price per share in the Offering) and shall have an expiration date of 3 years from the Closing Date, as the case may be. The Placement Agent Warrants issued to the U.S. Placement Agent shall not be transferable for six months from the date of the Offering, except as permitted by Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“ FINRA ”) Rule 5110(g)(1).

the expenses and costs to be reimbursed under (a) and (b) above shall be payable immediately upon the first Closing of the Offering; provided , however , that such reimbursement amount in no way limits or impairs the indemnification and contribution provisions of this Agreement.

21


               (i)      against any and all loss (except loss of profit), liability, claim, action, suit, proceeding, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, joint or several, arising out of or based upon: (A)(1) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, Base Prospectus Final Canadian MJDS Supplement, any Supplemental Marketing Materials, or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (2) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included in the Time of Sale Prospectus or any other preliminary prospectus supplement related to the Securities, the Final Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus the Company uses, or is required to file, pursuant to Rule 433(d) of the Act, the Preliminary Canadian MJDS Base Prospectus, the Canadian MJDS Base Prospectus and the Final Canadian MJDS Supplement, any Supplemental Marketing Materials, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto any other materials provided to investors by, or with the approval of, the Company in connection with the offering of the Securities and the marketing thereof, including any road show, or the omission or alleged omission therefrom 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; (3) any act or failure to act or any alleged act or failure to act by Wainwright in connection with, or relating in any manner to, the Securities or the offering contemplated hereby, and which is included as part of or referred to in any loss, claim, damage, liability or action arising out of or based upon any matter covered by clause (1) or (2) above; or (4) any “misrepresentation” (as defined by Canadian Securities Laws) contained in the Canadian MJDS Base Prospectus, any Supplemental Marketing Materials, and the Final Canadian MJDS Supplement, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto; or (B) the violation of any laws or regulations of foreign jurisdictions where Securities have been offered or sold that occurs as a result of such offer or sale

               (ii)      against any and all loss (except loss of profit), liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, joint or several, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, action, suit, proceeding, claim or any investigation or proceeding by any Governmental Authority, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission; provided that (subject to Section 6(d) below) any such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company, which consent shall not unreasonably be delayed or withheld; and

               (iii)      against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including the fees and disbursements of counsel), reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, action, suit, proceeding, claim, or any investigation or proceeding by any Governmental Authority, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission (whether or not a party), to the extent that any such expense is not paid under (i) or (ii) above; provided , however , that the foregoing indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made solely in reliance upon and in conformity with the Placement Agent Information.

            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6, the Company will not be responsible for any loss, liability, claim, damage and expense that is finally judicially determined to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any person seeking indemnification for such claim.

     (b)      Wainwright agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its directors and each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense described in the indemnity contained in Section 6(a), as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Registration Statement, or Base Prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus or any other preliminary prospectus supplement relating to the Securities, the Disclosure Package, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any other materials provided to investors by, or with the approval of, the Company in connection with the offering of the Securities, including any road show, or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to Wainwright and furnished to the Company by Wainwright in writing expressly for use therein (the “ Placement Agent Information ”).

22


     (c)      Any party that proposes to assert the right to be indemnified under this Section 6 will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action against such party in respect of which a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party or parties under this Section 6, notify each such indemnifying party of the commencement of such action, enclosing a copy of all papers served, but the omission so to notify such indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from (i) any liability that it might have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 6 and (ii) any liability that it may have to any indemnified party under the foregoing provision of this Section 6 unless, and only to the extent that, such omission results in the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses by the indemnifying party. If any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of its commencement, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in and, to the extent that it elects by delivering written notice to the indemnified party promptly after receiving notice of the commencement of the action from the indemnified party, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense of the action, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense, the indemnifying party will not be liable to the indemnified party for any legal expenses of the indemnified party except as provided below and except for the reasonable costs of investigation previously or subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense. The indemnified party will have the right to employ its own counsel in any such action, but the fees, expenses and other charges of such counsel will be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (1) the employment of counsel by the indemnified party has been authorized in writing by the indemnifying party, (2) the indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based on advice of counsel to the indemnified party) that there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party, (3) a conflict or potential conflict exists (based on advice of counsel to the indemnified party) between the indemnified party and the indemnifying party (in which case the indemnifying party will not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party) or (4) the indemnifying party has not in fact employed counsel to assume the defense of such action or counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, in each case, within a reasonable time after receiving notice of the commencement of the action (such time frame not to exceed 20 days in any case); in each of which cases the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel will be at the expense of the indemnifying party or parties. It is understood that the indemnifying party or parties shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of more than one separate firm (excluding local counsel) admitted to practice in such jurisdiction at any one time for all such indemnified party or parties, which counsel (together with any local counsel) for the indemnified parties shall be selected by Wainwright (in the case of counsel for the indemnified parties referred to in Section 6(a)). All such fees, disbursements and other charges will be reimbursed by the indemnifying party promptly as they are incurred. An indemnifying party will not, in any event, be liable for any settlement of any action or claim effected without its written consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of each indemnified party, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action or proceeding relating to the matters contemplated by this Section 6 (whether or not any indemnified party is a party thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (1) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, from all liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (2) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

23


     (d)      If an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated by Section 6(a)(ii) effected without its written consent if (1) such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (2) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 30 days prior to such settlement being entered into and (3) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement.

     (e)      In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification provided for in the foregoing paragraphs of this Section 6 is applicable in accordance with its terms but for any reason is held to be unavailable or insufficient from the Company or Wainwright, the Company and Wainwright will contribute to the total losses, claims, liabilities, expenses and damages (including any investigative, legal and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted) to which the Company and Wainwright may be subject in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and Wainwright, on the other hand. The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and Wainwright, on the other hand, shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the sale of the Securities (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total compensation received by Wainwright from the sale of the Securities on behalf of the Company (in each case, as set forth on the cover of the Prospectus). If, but only if, the allocation provided by the foregoing sentence is not permitted by applicable law, the allocation of contribution shall be made in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in the foregoing sentence but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and Wainwright, on the other hand, with respect to the statements or omission that resulted in such loss, claim, liability, expense or damage, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations with respect to such offering. Such relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or Wainwright, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

     The Company and Wainwright agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 6(e) were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, liability, expense, or damage, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section 6(e) shall be deemed to include, for the purpose of this Section 6(e), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim to the extent consistent with Section 6(c) hereof.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6(e), Wainwright shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the commissions received by it under this Agreement and no person found guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Wainwright’s obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 6 are several, and not joint, pro rata based on sales in the Offering. For purposes of this Section 6(e), any affiliate of Wainwright, any person who controls a party to this Agreement within the meaning of the Act, and any officers, directors, partners, employees or agents of Wainwright or its affiliates or control persons, will have the same rights to contribution as that party, and each director of the Company and each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement will have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the provisions hereof. Any party entitled to contribution, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made under this Section 6(e), will notify any such party or parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission to so notify will not relieve that party or parties from whom contribution may be sought from any other obligation it or they may have under this Section 6(e) except to the extent that the failure to so notify such other party materially prejudiced the substantive rights or defenses of the party from whom contribution is sought. Except for a settlement entered into pursuant to the last sentence of Section 6(c) hereof, no party will be liable for contribution with respect to any action or claim settled without its written consent if such consent is required pursuant to Section 6(c) hereof.

24


7.         Termination .

     (a)      This agreement shall be subject to termination in the absolute discretion of Wainwright, by notice given to the Company prior to delivery of and payment for the Securities, if at any time prior to such time (a) trading or quotation in any of the Company’s securities shall have been suspended or limited by the Commission, the OTCQX or the TSXV or trading in securities generally on the OTCQX or the TSXV shall have been suspended or limited or minimum prices shall have been established on such exchange, (b) a general banking moratorium shall have been declared by Canadian or U.S. federal, New York State or Ontario provincial authorities, (c) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of national or international hostilities, or a declaration by the U.S. or Canada of a national emergency or war, major terrorist attack in a world commercial financial center, or other calamity or crisis, including a health epidemic, the effect of which on financial markets is such as to make it, in the sole judgment of the Wainwright, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Securities as contemplated by the Time of Sale Prospectus, the Final Prospectus or the Final Canadian MJDS Supplement (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto), (d) Wainwright is not satisfied in their sole discretion with their due diligence review and investigations in respect of the Company, (e) in the judgment of a Wainwright there shall have occurred any material adverse change, (f) the Company shall have sustained a loss by strike, fire, flood, earthquake, accident or other calamity of such character as in the judgment of Wainwright may interfere materially with the conduct of the business and operations of the Company regardless of whether or not such loss shall have been insured, or (g) any of the conditions to be fulfilled by the Company set out herein (which have not been waived) have not been satisfied by the Closing Time.

     (b)      The rights of termination contained in Section 7(a) may be exercised by Wainwright and are in addition to any other rights or remedies Wainwright may have in respect of any default, act or failure to act or non-compliance by the Company in respect of any of the matters contemplated by this Agreement or otherwise. In the event of any such termination, there shall be no further liability on the part of Wainwright to the Company or on the part of the Company to Wainwright, except that the Company shall be obligated to reimburse the expenses of Wainwright and except in respect of any liability which may have arisen prior to or arise after such termination under Sections 6.

25


8.         Representations and Indemnities to Survive . The respective agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of the Company or its officers or its directors and of the Wainwright set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of Wainwright or the Company or any of the affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents or controlling persons referred to in Section 6 hereof, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Securities.

Wainwright & Co., LLC (“ Wainwright ” or “ U.S. Placement Agent ”) pursuant to a separate placement agency agreement (“ U.S. PAA ”), and through Echelon Wealth Partners Inc. (“ Echelon ” or “ Canada Placement Agent ”) (the U.S. Placement Agent and Canada Placement Agent, collectively, the “ Placement Agents ”) in Canada, as placement agents. The documents executed and delivered by the Company and the U.S. Investors in connection with the Offering (as defined below), including, without limitation, a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), shall be collectively referred to herein as the “ U.S. Transaction Documents .” The Placement Agents may retain other brokers or dealers to act as sub-agents or selected-dealers on its behalf in connection with the Offering. Should any changes be made to the U.S. PAA after the date hereof, the Company shall provide notice to the Canadian Placement Agent of any changes to the U.S. PAA along with the relevant details of such changes.

            In addition, the Company hereby grants to the Canadian Placement Agent an option (the “ Over-Allotment Option ”) exercisable in whole or in part at any time up to and including the date that is 30 days following the Closing Date (as defined below), to purchase up to an additional 2,571,647 Shares and/or up to an additional 1,285,824 Warrants of the Company (collectively, the “ Over-Allotment Securities ”, and together with the Shares, Warrants and Warrant Shares, the “ Securities ”), upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, to cover over-allotments. If the Canadian Placement Agent elects to exercise the Over-Allotment Option, the Canadian Placement Agent shall notify the Company in writing not less than 48 hours prior to the Over-Allotment Option Closing Date (as defined herein), which notice shall specify the aggregate number and combination of Over-Allotment Securities to be sold by the Canadian Placement Agent and the names and denominations in which the Over-Allotment Securities are to be registered (the “ Over-Allotment Option Notice ”). The date of any such purchase may be the same as the Closing Date, but not earlier than the Closing Date nor later than the Over-Allotment Option Closing Date.

            The U.S. Placement Agent shall be the exclusive placement agent in connection with the offering and sale by the Company of the Securities in the United States (such placement in the United States, the “ U.S. Placement ”) and the Canada Placement Agent shall be the exclusive placement agent in connection with the offering and sale by the Company of the Securities in Canada (such placement in Canada, the “ Canada Placement ”). The Placement Agents will act on a reasonable best efforts basis and the Company agrees and acknowledges that there is no guarantee of the successful placement of the Securities, or any portion thereof, in the prospective Offering. The Placement Agents shall offer the Securities in accordance with all applicable securities laws. Under no circumstances will the Placement Agents or any of their respective “Affiliates” (as defined herein) be obligated to underwrite or purchase any of the Securities for its own account or otherwise provide any financing. The Placement Agents shall act solely as the Company’s agent and not as principal. The Placement Agents shall have no authority to bind the Company with respect to any prospective offer to purchase Securities and the Company shall have the sole right to accept offers to purchase Securities and may reject any such offer, in whole or in part. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, payment of the purchase price for, and delivery of, the Securities shall be made at one or more closings (each a “ Closing ” and the date on which each Closing occurs, a “ Closing Date ” which term shall also include each Over-Allotment Option Closing Date).

A cash fee equal to 7% of the gross proceeds received by the Company from the sale of the Securities at the closing of the Offering (the “ Closing ”), which cash fee shall be paid to the Placement Agents on a pro-rata basis based on sales by such Placement Agent in the Offering, provided that, solely with respect to sales in the Offering to the parties listed on Schedule A here (the “ Identified Investors ”), such cash fee shall equal 3.5% of the gross proceeds received by the Company from the Identified Investors and shall be paid to the Placement Agents on a pro-rata basis based on sales by such Placement Agent in the Offering to the Identified Investors. For greater certainty, fees for any sales to purchasers resident in Canada will be for the account of the Canadian Placement Agent and fees for any sales to purchasers resident in the United States will be for the account of the U.S. Placement Agent.

     
  (ii)

Such number of Common Stock purchase warrants (the “Placement Agent Warrants”) to Placement Agents or their respective designees at each Closing to purchase shares of Common Stock (the “ Placement Agent Shares ”) equal to 7% of the aggregate number of Shares sold in the Offering, which Placement Agent Warrants shall be issued to the Placement Agents on a pro-rata basis based on sales by such Placement Agent in the Offering, provided that, solely with respect to sales in the Offering to the Identified Investors, such Placement Agent Warrants shall equal 3.5% of the Shares sold in the Offering to the Identified Investors and shall be issued to the Placement Agents on a pro- rata basis based on sales by such Placement Agent in the Offering to the Identified Investors. The Placement Agent Warrants shall have the same terms as the warrants issued to the Investors in the Offering except that the exercise price shall be $0.875 (125% of the public offering price per share in the Offering) and shall have an expiration date of 3 years from the Closing Date, as the case may be, and shall be included on the Registration Statement. The Placement Agent Warrants issued to the U.S. Placement Agent shall not be transferable for six months from the date of the Offering, except as permitted by Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“ FINRA ”) Rule 5110(g)(1).

  c.

the expenses and costs to be reimbursed under (a) and (b) above shall be payable immediately upon the first Closing of the Offering; provided, however, that such reimbursement amount in no way limits or impairs the indemnification and contribution provisions of this Agreement.

     (i)      against any and all loss (except loss of profit), liability, claim, action, suit, proceeding, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, joint or several, arising out of or based upon: (A)(1) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, Base Prospectus, Final Canadian MJDS Supplement, any Supplemental Marketing Materials or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (2) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included in the Time of Sale Prospectus, or any other preliminary prospectus supplement related to the Securities, the Final Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus the Company uses, or is required to file, pursuant to Rule 433(d) of the Act, the Preliminary Canadian MJDS Base Prospectus, the Canadian MJDS Base Prospectus and the Final Canadian MJDS Supplement, any Supplemental Marketing Materials or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto any other materials provided to investors by, or with the approval of, the Company in connection with the offering of the Securities and the marketing thereof, including any road show, or the omission or alleged omission therefrom 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; (3) any act or failure to act or any alleged act or failure to act by Echelon in connection with, or relating in any manner to, the Securities or the offering contemplated hereby, and which is included as part of or referred to in any loss, claim, damage, liability or action arising out of or based upon any matter covered by clause (1) or (2) above; or (4) any “misrepresentation” (as defined by Canadian Securities Laws) contained in the Canadian MJDS Base Prospectus, any Supplemental Marketing Materials, and the Final Canadian MJDS Supplement, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto; or (B) the violation of any laws or regulations of foreign jurisdictions where Securities have been offered or sold that occurs as a result of such offer or sale;

     (c)      Any party that proposes to assert the right to be indemnified under this Section 6 will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action against such party in respect of which a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party or parties under this Section 6, notify each such indemnifying party of the commencement of such action, enclosing a copy of all papers served, but the omission so to notify such indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from (i) any liability that it might have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 6 and (ii) any liability that it may have to any indemnified party under the foregoing provision of this Section 6 unless, and only to the extent that, such omission results in the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses by the indemnifying party. If any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of its commencement, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in and, to the extent that it elects by delivering written notice to the indemnified party promptly after receiving notice of the commencement of the action from the indemnified party, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense of the action, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense, the indemnifying party will not be liable to the indemnified party for any legal expenses of the indemnified party except as provided below and except for the reasonable costs of investigation previously or subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense. The indemnified party will have the right to employ its own counsel in any such action, but the fees, expenses and other charges of such counsel will be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (1) the employment of counsel by the indemnified party has been authorized in writing by the indemnifying party, (2) the indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based on advice of counsel to the indemnified party) that there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party, (3) a conflict or potential conflict exists (based on advice of counsel to the indemnified party) between the indemnified party and the indemnifying party (in which case the indemnifying party will not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party) or (4) the indemnifying party has not in fact employed counsel to assume the defense of such action or counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, in each case, within a reasonable time after receiving notice of the commencement of the action (such time frame not to exceed 20 days in any case); in each of which cases the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel will be at the expense of the indemnifying party or parties. It is understood that the indemnifying party or parties shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of more than one separate firm (excluding local counsel) admitted to practice in such jurisdiction at any one time for all such indemnified party or parties, which counsel (together with any local counsel) for the indemnified parties shall be selected by Echelon (in the case of counsel for the indemnified parties referred to in Section 6(a)). All such fees, disbursements and other charges will be reimbursed by the indemnifying party promptly as they are incurred. An indemnifying party will not, in any event, be liable for any settlement of any action or claim effected without its written consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of each indemnified party, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action or proceeding relating to the matters contemplated by this Section 6 (whether or not any indemnified party is a party thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (1) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, from all liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (2) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

     (d)      If an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated by Section 6(a)(ii) effected without its written consent if (1) such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (2) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 30 days prior to such settlement being entered into and (3) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement.

     (e)      In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification provided for in the foregoing paragraphs of this Section 6 is applicable in accordance with its terms but for any reason is held to be unavailable or insufficient from the Company or Echelon, the Company and Echelon will contribute to the total losses, claims, liabilities, expenses and damages (including any investigative, legal and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted) to which the Company and Echelon may be subject in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and Echelon, on the other hand. The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and Echelon, on the other hand, shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the sale of the Securities (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total compensation received by Echelon from the sale of the Securities on behalf of the Company (in each case, as set forth on the cover of the Prospectus). If, but only if, the allocation provided by the foregoing sentence is not permitted by applicable law, the allocation of contribution shall be made in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in the foregoing sentence but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and Echelon, on the other hand, with respect to the statements or omission that resulted in such loss, claim, liability, expense or damage, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations with respect to such offering. Such relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or Echelon, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

24


            The Company and Echelon agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 6(e) were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, liability, expense, or damage, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section 6(e) shall be deemed to include, for the purpose of this Section 6(e), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim to the extent consistent with Section 6(c) hereof.

            Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6(e), Echelon shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the commissions received by it under this Agreement and no person found guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Echelon’s obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 6 are several, and not joint, pro rata based on sales in the Offering. For purposes of this Section 6(e), any affiliate of Echelon, any person who controls a party to this Agreement within the meaning of the Act, and any officers, directors, partners, employees or agents of Echelon or its affiliates or control persons, will have the same rights to contribution as that party, and each director of the Company and each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement will have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the provisions hereof. Any party entitled to contribution, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made under this Section 6(e), will notify any such party or parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission to so notify will not relieve that party or parties from whom contribution may be sought from any other obligation it or they may have under this Section 6(e) except to the extent that the failure to so notify such other party materially prejudiced the substantive rights or defenses of the party from whom contribution is sought. Except for a settlement entered into pursuant to the last sentence of Section 6(c) hereof, no party will be liable for contribution with respect to any action or claim settled without its written consent if such consent is required pursuant to Section 6(c) hereof.

7.        Termination .

     (a)      This agreement shall be subject to termination in the absolute discretion of Echelon, by notice given to the Company prior to delivery of and payment for the Securities, if at any time prior to such time (a) trading or quotation in any of the Company’s securities shall have been suspended or limited by the Commission, the OTCQX or the TSXV or trading in securities generally on the OTCQX or the TSXV shall have been suspended or limited or minimum prices shall have been established on such exchange, (b) a general banking moratorium shall have been declared by Canadian or U.S. federal, New York State or Ontario provincial authorities, (c) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of national or international hostilities, or a declaration by the U.S. or Canada of a national emergency or war, major terrorist attack in a world commercial financial center, or other calamity or crisis, including a health epidemic, the effect of which on financial markets is such as to make it, in the sole judgment of the Echelon, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Securities as contemplated by the Time of Sale Prospectus, the Final Prospectus or the Final Canadian MJDS Supplement (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto), (d) Echelon is not satisfied in their sole discretion with their due diligence review and investigations in respect of the Company, (e) in the judgment of a Echelon there shall have occurred any material adverse change, (f) the Company shall have sustained a loss by strike, fire, flood, earthquake, accident or other calamity of such character as in the judgment of Echelon may interfere materially with the conduct of the business and operations of the Company regardless of whether or not such loss shall have been insured, or (g) any of the conditions to be fulfilled by the Company set out herein (which have not been waived) have not been satisfied by the Closing Time.

25


     (b)      The rights of termination contained in Section 7(a) may be exercised by Echelon and are in addition to any other rights or remedies Echelon may have in respect of any default, act or failure to act or non-compliance by the Company in respect of any of the matters contemplated by this Agreement or otherwise. In the event of any such termination, there shall be no further liability on the part of Echelon to the Company or on the part of the Company to Echelon, except that the Company shall be obligated to reimburse the expenses of Echelon and except in respect of any liability which may have arisen prior to or arise after such termination under Sections 6.

8.         Representations and Indemnities to Survive .

The provisions of clause (iii) under second paragraph of this Agreement and 6 hereof shall survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement.

The purchase price of one share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be equal to the Exercise Price, as defined in Section 2(b).

             Section 1 .        Definitions . Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the “ Purchase Agreement ”), dated October 18, 2018, among the Company and the purchasers signatory thereto.

             Section 2 .        Exercise .

a)        Exercise of Warrant . Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Termination Date by delivery to the Company of a duly executed facsimile copy or PDF copy submitted by e-mail (or e-mail attachment) of the Notice of Exercise in the form annexed hereto (the “ Notice of Exercise ”). Within the earlier of (i) two (2) Trading Days and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period (as defined in Section 2(d)(i) herein) following the date of exercise as aforesaid, the Holder shall deliver the aggregate Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank. No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise be required. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation within three (3) Trading Days of the date on which the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise within one (1) Trading Day of receipt of such notice.

            b)        Exercise Price . The exercise price per share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be $1.00 , subject to adjustment hereunder (the “ Exercise Price ”).

           c)        U.S. Registration Failure . If, at any time prior to the Termination Date, there is no effective U.S. registration statement registering, or the U.S. prospectus contained therein is not available for, the issuance of all of the Warrant Shares to the Holder, the Company shall provide the Holder with prompt written notice (each, a “ Registration Failure Notice ”) upon the occurrence of such event, and the subsequent termination of such event. If, at the time of exercise hereof, there is no effective U.S. registration statement registering, or the U.S. prospectus contained therein is not available for, the issuance of all of the Warrant Shares to the Holder (each such period, a “ Registration Failure Period ”), then, upon delivery of such Notice of Exercise and by receipt of the Warrant Shares by the Holder, the Holder acknowledges and agrees that the Warrant Shares shall have not been registered under the Securities Act and accordingly may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an available exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company acknowledges and agrees that, during any Registration Failure Period, the issuance of the Warrant Shares to the Holder fulfills the requirements of the Canadian Regulators that enable the Warrant Shares to be offered for sale and sold to the public under the Canadian Securities laws without limitations or restrictions on resale on the Canadian Trading Market and as such, the Company shall issue the Warrant Shares pursuant to procedures, and in compliance with the time requirements, set forth in Section 2(d)(i), including the requirement to deliver the Warrant Shares by crediting the account of the Holder’s, or designee’s, prime broker with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“ DWAC ”). Upon delivery of a Notice of Exercise during a Registration Failure Period, the Company shall be required to pay in cash to the Holder on each Trading Day during the Registration Failure Period an amount equal to 2.0% of the product of (A) the number of Warrant Shares exercised by the Holder pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence and (B) the VWAP of the Common Stock on the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise. The Company shall pay any cash amounts owed pursuant to clause (1) of the immediately preceding sentence no later than two (2) Business Days after a written request by the Holder (which may be made by facsimile or electronic mail). In the event that the Company does not promptly deliver a Registration Failure Notice, or such Registration Failure Notice is delivered after the Holder tenders a Notice of Exercise during a Registration Failure Period, the Holder shall have the right to rescind any such Notice of Exercise and the Company shall promptly reinstate any Warrants so exercised and return any Exercise Price paid to the Company.

2


            “ VWAP ” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Common Stock is then listed or quoted on a Trading Market, the daily volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the principal Trading Market in the United States (unless the Holder elects that the applicable Trading Market is in Canada) on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if OTCQB or OTCQX is not a Trading Market, the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported in the “Pink Sheets” published by OTC Markets Group, Inc. (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per share of the Common Stock so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Holders of a majority in interest of the Securities then outstanding and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.

            d)        Mechanics of Exercise .

            i.        Delivery of Warrant Shares Upon Exercise . The Company shall cause the Warrant Shares purchased hereunder to be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company through its DWAC if the Company is then a participant in such system and there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder, and otherwise by physical delivery of a certificate, registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that is the earlier of (A) the earlier of (i) two (2) Trading Days and (ii) the number of days comprising the Standard Settlement Period, in each case after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise and (B) one (1) Trading Day after delivery of the aggregate Exercise Price to the Company (such date, the “ Warrant Share Delivery Date ”), provided that the Company shall not be obligated to deliver Warrant Shares hereunder unless the Company has received the aggregate Exercise Price on or prior to the Warrant Share Delivery Date. Upon delivery of the Notice of Exercise, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the Warrant Shares, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price is received by the Warrant Share Delivery Date. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the Warrant Shares subject to a Notice of Exercise by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Warrant Shares subject to such exercise (based on the VWAP of the Common Stock on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise), $5 per Trading Day (increasing to $10 per Trading Day on the fifth Trading Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after such Warrant Share Delivery Date until such Warrant Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise. The Company agrees to maintain a transfer agent that is a participant in the FAST program so long as this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable. As used herein, “ Standard Settlement Period ” means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary Trading Market in the United States with respect to the Common Stock as in effect on the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise.

3


            ii.        Delivery of New Warrants Upon Exercise . If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request of a Holder and upon surrender of this Warrant, at the time of delivery of the Warrant Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant.

            iii.        Rescission Rights . If the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 2(d)(i) by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.

            iv.        Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Warrant Shares Upon Exercise . In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 2(d)(i) above pursuant to an exercise on or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date, and if after such date the Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “ Buy-In ”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder the amount, if any, by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored (in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of shares of Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

4


            v.        No Fractional Shares or Scrip . No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall, at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Exercise Price or round up to the next whole share.

            vi.        Charges, Taxes and Expenses . Issuance of Warrant 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 Warrant Shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such Warrant Shares shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; provided , however , that in the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Exercise and all fees to the Depository Trust Company (or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions) required for same-day electronic delivery of the Warrant Shares.

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

5


            e)        Holder’s Exercise Limitations . The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 2 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise as set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any other Persons acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates (such Persons, “ Attribution Parties ”)), would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other Common Stock Equivalents) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 2(e), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 2(e) applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 2(e), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (A) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (C) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within one (1) Trading Day confirm orally and in writing 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 this Warrant, by the Holder or its Affiliates or Attribution Parties since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The “ Beneficial Ownership Limitation ” shall be [4.99%/9.99%] of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Holder, upon notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 2(e), provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant held by the Holder and the provisions of this Section 2(e) shall continue to apply. Any increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61 st day after such notice is delivered to the Company. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 2(e) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.

             Section 3 .        Certain Adjustments .

            a)        Stock Dividends and Splits . If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (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 (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company upon exercise of this Warrant), (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 ((i)-(iv), a “ Share Reorganization ”), then in each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant shall remain unchanged. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

            b)        Subsequent Rights Offerings . If and whenever during the exercise period of this Warrant, the Company shall fix a record date for the issuance of rights, options or warrants to all or substantially all of the holders of shares of Common Stock under which such holders are entitled, during a period expiring not more than 45 days after the record date for such issuance (“ Rights Period ”), to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock or securities exchangeable for or convertible into shares of Common Stock at a price per share to the holder (or having a conversion price or exchange price per share of Common Stock) of less than the VWAP for the shares of Common Stock on such record date (any of such events being called a “ Rights Offering ”), then the Exercise Price shall be adjusted, effective immediately after the end of the Rights Period to a price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the end of the Rights Period by a fraction:

7


            (i)        the numerator of which shall be the aggregate of:

  (A)

the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of the record date for the Rights Offering, and

     
  (B)

a number determined by dividing either


  I.

the product of the number of shares of Common Stock issued or subscribed for during the Rights Period and the price at which such Shares are offered,

or, as the case may be,

  II.

the product of the exchange or conversion price per share of such securities offered and the number of shares of Common Stock for or into which the securities so offered pursuant to the Rights Offering have been exchanged or converted during the Rights Period,

by the VWAP of the shares of Common Stock as of the record date for the Rights Offering; and

  (ii)

the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding after giving effect to the Rights Offering and including the number of shares of Common Stock actually issued or subscribed for during the Rights Period upon exercise of the rights, warrants or options under the Rights Offering or upon the exercise of the exchange or conversion rights contained in such exchangeable or convertible securities under the Rights Offering.

If the Holder has exercised any of the Warrants during the period beginning immediately after the record date for a Rights Offering and ending on the last day of the Rights Period, the Holder shall, in addition to the shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is otherwise entitled upon such exercise in accordance with Section 2 hereof, be entitled to that number of additional shares of Common Stock equal to the result obtained when the difference, if any, resulting from the subtraction of the Exercise Price as adjusted for such Rights Offering pursuant to this Section 3(b) from the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the end of such Rights Offering is multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock purchased upon exercise of the Warrants held by such Holder during such period, and the resulting product is divided by the Exercise Price as adjusted for such Rights Offering pursuant to this Section 3(b); provided that the provisions of Section 2(d)(v) shall be applicable to any fractional interest in a share of Common Stock to which such Holder might otherwise be entitled under the foregoing provisions of this Section 3(b). Such additional shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued to the Holder immediately following the end of the Rights Period and a certificate for such additional Shares shall be delivered to such Holder within three (3) Business Days following the end of the Rights Period.

8


            c)        Pro Rata Distributions . If and whenever during the Exercise Period the Company shall issue or distribute to all or to substantially all the holders of the shares of Common Stock:

  (i)

securities of the Company including shares, rights, options or warrants to acquire shares of any class of securities exchangeable for or convertible into or exchangeable into any such shares or cash, property or assets and including evidences of its indebtedness, or

     
  (ii)

any cash, property or other assets,

and if such issuance or distribution does not constitute dividends paid in the ordinary course, a Share Reorganization or a Rights Offering (any of such non-excluded events being herein called a “ Special Distribution ”), the Exercise Price will be adjusted, immediately after such record date so that the Exercise Price will equal the price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect on such record date by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such record date multiplied by the VWAP on the earlier of such record date and the date on which the Company announces its intention to make such distribution, less the aggregate fair market value (as determined by the directors, acting reasonably, at the time such distribution is authorized) of such shares or rights, options or warrants or evidences of indebtedness or cash, securities or other property or assets so distributed, and of which the denominator shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such record date multiplied by such VWAP and the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued by the Company under the Warrants shall, at the time of exercise, be appropriately adjusted).

            d)        Fundamental Transaction . If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company, directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or more of the outstanding Common Stock, (iv) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more

9


related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, or (v) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with another Person or group of Persons whereby such other Person or group acquires more than 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (not including any shares of Common Stock held by the other Person or other Persons making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other Persons making or party to, such stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination) (each a “ Fundamental Transaction ”), then, upon any subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the option of the Holder (without regard to any limitation in Section 2(e) on the exercise of this Warrant), the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “ Alternate Consideration ”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation in Section 2(e) on the exercise of this Warrant). For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “ Successor Entity ”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3(e) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the Holder, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant which is exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an exercise price which applies the exercise price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of shares of capital stock and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein.

10


            e)        If and whenever at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Termination Date, the Company takes any action affecting its shares of Common Stock to which the foregoing provisions of this Section 3, in the opinion of the board of directors of the Company, acting reasonably and in good faith, are not strictly applicable, or if strictly applicable would not fairly adjust the rights of the Holder against dilution in accordance with the intent and purposes thereof, or would otherwise materially affect the rights of the Holder hereunder, then the Company shall execute and deliver to the Holder an amendment hereto providing for an adjustment in the application of such provisions so as to adjust such rights as aforesaid in such a manner as the board of directors of the Company may determine to be equitable in the circumstances, acting reasonably and in good faith. The failure of the taking of action by the board of directors of the Company to so provide for any adjustment on or prior to the effective date of any action or occurrence giving rise to such state of facts will be conclusive evidence that the board of directors has determined that it is equitable to make no adjustment in the circumstances.

            f)        Calculations . All calculations under this Section 3 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section 3, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.

            g)        Notice to Holder .

            i.        Adjustment to Exercise Price . Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 3, the Company shall promptly deliver to the Holder by facsimile or email a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and any resulting adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

            ii.        Notice to Allow Exercise by Holder . If (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 delivered by facsimile or email to the Holder at its last facsimile number or email address as it shall appear upon the Warrant Register of the Company, at least 20 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 deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. To the extent that any notice provided in this Warrant constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K. The Holder shall remain entitled to exercise this Warrant 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


             Section 4 .        Transfer of Warrant .

            a)        Transferability . This Warrant and all rights hereunder (including, without limitation, any registration rights) are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company or its designated agent, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto 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. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable, and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company unless the Holder has assigned this Warrant in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company within three (3) Trading Days of the date on which the Holder delivers an assignment form to the Company assigning this Warrant in full. The Warrant, if properly assigned in accordance herewith, may be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued.

12


            b)        New Warrants . This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the Company, together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section 4(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance with such notice. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the Issue Date of this Warrant and shall be identical with this Warrant except as to the number of Warrant Shares issuable pursuant thereto.

            c)        Warrant Register . The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the “ Warrant Register ”), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.       

             Section 5 .        Miscellaneous .

            a)        No Rights as Stockholder Until Exercise; No Settlement in Cash . This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 2(d)(i), except as expressly set forth in Section 3. Without limiting the rights of a Holder to receive the cash payments contemplated pursuant to Sections 2(c), 2(d)(i) and 2(d)(iv) herein, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle a Warrant exercise.

            b)        Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant . The Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of the Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.

            c)        Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc . If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a Business Day, then, such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Business Day.

            d)        Authorized Shares .

13


                   The Company covenants that, during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of issuing the necessary Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Trading Market upon which the Common Stock may be listed. The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant and payment for such Warrant Shares in accordance herewith, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable 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).

            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 Warrant, 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 Holder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value of any Warrant 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 nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant and (iii) use commercially reasonable 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 Warrant.

            Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the Exercise Price, 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.

            e)        Jurisdiction . All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement.

14


            f)        Restrictions . The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws.

            g)        Nonwaiver and Expenses . No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the Holder’s rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding the fact that the right to exercise this Warrant terminates on the Termination Date. Without limiting any other provision of this Warrant or the Purchase Agreement, if the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to the Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by the Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.

            h)        Notices . Any notice, request or other document required or permitted to be given or delivered to the Holder by the Company shall be delivered in accordance with the notice provisions of the Purchase Agreement.

             i)        Limitation of Liability . No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

            j)        Remedies . The Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive and not to assert the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.

            k)        Successors and Assigns . Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder. The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of any Holder from time to time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by the Holder or holder of Warrant Shares.

            l)        Amendment . This Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company and the Holder.

            m)        Severability . Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.

15


            n)        Headings . The headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant.

29


            4.15       Capital Changes .

Each party agrees that all legal Proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any Action or Proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such Action or Proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient venue for such Proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such Action or Proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. If any party shall commence an Action or Proceeding to enforce any provisions of the Transaction Documents, then, in addition to the obligations of the Company under Section 4.8, the prevailing party in such Action or Proceeding shall be reimbursed by the non-prevailing party for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such Action or Proceeding.

            5.10       Survival . The representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the Closing and the delivery of the Securities.

            5.11       Execution . This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to each other party, it being understood that the parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature page were an original thereof.

            5.12       Severability . If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.

32


            5.13       Rescission and Withdrawal Right . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) any of the other Transaction Documents, whenever any Purchaser exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction Document and the Company does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then such Purchaser may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights; provided, however, that in the case of a rescission of an exercise of a Warrant, the applicable Purchaser shall be required to return any shares of Common Stock subject to any such rescinded exercise notice concurrently with the return to such Purchaser of the aggregate exercise price paid to the Company for such shares and the restoration of such Purchaser’s right to acquire such shares pursuant to such Purchaser’s Warrant (including, issuance of a replacement warrant certificate evidencing such restored right).

            5.14       Replacement of Securities . If any certificate or instrument evidencing any Securities is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation thereof (in the case of mutilation), or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction. The applicant for a new certificate or instrument under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs (including customary indemnity) associated with the issuance of such replacement Securities.

            5.15       Remedies . In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of the Purchasers and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under the Transaction Documents. The parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations contained in the Transaction Documents and hereby agree to waive and not to assert in any Action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

            5.16       Payment Set Aside . To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to any Purchaser pursuant to any Transaction Document or a Purchaser enforces or exercises its rights thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

33


            5.17      Independent Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights . The obligations of each Purchaser under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance or non-performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any Proceeding for such purpose. Each Purchaser has been represented by its own separate legal counsel in its review and negotiation of the Transaction Documents. For reasons of administrative convenience only, each Purchaser and its respective counsel have chosen to communicate with the Company through the legal counsel of the Placement Agent. The legal counsel of the Placement Agent does not represent any of the Purchasers and only represents the Placement Agent. The Company has elected to provide all Purchasers with the same terms and Transaction Documents for the convenience of the Company and not because it was required or requested to do so by any of the Purchasers. It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained in this Agreement and in each other Transaction Document is between the Company and a Purchaser, solely, and not between the Company and the Purchasers collectively and not between and among the Purchasers.

            5.18       Liquidated Damages . The Company’s obligations to pay any partial liquidated damages or other amounts owing under the Transaction Documents is a continuing obligation of the Company and shall not terminate until all unpaid partial liquidated damages and other amounts have been paid notwithstanding the fact that the instrument or security pursuant to which such partial liquidated damages or other amounts are due and payable shall have been canceled.

            5.19     Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a Business Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Business Day.

            5.20       Construction . The parties agree that each of them and/or their respective counsel have reviewed and had an opportunity to revise the Transaction Documents and, therefore, the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of the Transaction Documents or any amendments thereto. In addition, each and every reference to share prices and shares of Common Stock in any Transaction Document shall be subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Common Stock that occur after the date of this Agreement.

            5.21       WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL . IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING IN ANY JURISDICTION BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY, THE PARTIES EACH KNOWINGLY AND INTENTIONALLY, TO THE

34


GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, HEREBY ABSOLUTELY, UNCONDITIONALLY, IRREVOCABLY AND EXPRESSLY WAIVES FOREVER TRIAL BY JURY.
