a)                 Exercise of Warrant. Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part in increments of 25,000 Warrant Shares, subject to the following limitations:

 

i.            Immediately upon the Issue Date, the aggregate amount of Warrant Shares in respect of which the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised shall be 3,000,000 (the “First Tranche”) (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to the terms of this Warrant and subject to Section 2(a)(v)); provided, that, until such date on which the aggregate principal amount of the Loans is repaid in full, the Holder may not utilize the cashless exercise procedure specified in Section 2(c) hereof with respect to any First Tranche Warrant Shares. Upon the exercise of this Warrant in respect of any First Tranche Warrant Shares at any time prior to the repayment in full of the aggregate principal amount of the Loans, the Company shall use 100% of the cash proceeds received in connection with such exercise to make a mandatory prepayment of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans as required by and further described in Section 3(b) of the Fourth Amendment to the Credit and Guaranty Agreement. The period between the Issue Date and March 22, 2021 is an “Exercise Period.”

 

ii.            [Reserved]

 

iii.           On March 23, 2021, the aggregate amount of Warrant Shares in respect of which the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised shall be increased by 1,923,637 (the “Third Tranche”) (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to the terms of this Warrant and subject to Section 2(a)(v)). The period between March 23, 2021 and June 22, 2021 is an “Exercise Period.”

 

iv.          On June 23, 2021, the aggregate amount of Warrant Shares in respect of which the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised shall be increased by 1,923,637 (the “Fourth Tranche” and together with the First Tranche and Third Tranche, each a “Tranche”) (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to the terms of this Warrant and subject to Section 2(a)(v)). The period between June 23, 2021 and the Termination Date is an “Exercise Period.”

 

v.           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans is repaid in cash during an Exercise Period (including any such repayment on the Issue Date), the number of Warrant Shares represented by each Tranche of each subsequent Exercise Period shall be equal to (A) the number of Warrant Shares represented by such Tranche (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to the terms of this Warrant), multiplied by (B) a number that is the lesser of: (1) a fraction, (x) the numerator of which is (I) $40,900,000; minus (II) as of the most recent Monthly Payment Date (as defined in the Credit and Guaranty Agreement), the principal amount of the Loans (as defined in the Credit and Guaranty Agreement) that have been repaid in cash after the Issue Date, and (y) the denominator of which is $37,900,000 and (2) 1.00. Further, in the event that the outstanding balance of the Loans is repaid in full during an Exercise Period, then each Tranche with respect to all subsequent Exercise Periods shall represent zero Warrant Shares.

Subject to the foregoing limitations, exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, by delivery to the Company of a duly completed and executed facsimile copy or PDF copy submitted by facsimile or e-mail attachment of the Notice of Exercise in the form attached hereto (“Notice of Exercise”). Within two (2) Trading Days following delivery of the Notice of Exercise, the Holder shall deliver the Aggregate Exercise Price to the Company, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the Company in writing or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank, unless the utilization of the cashless exercise procedure specified in Section 2(c) below is specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise. 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 in this Warrant 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 under this Warrant and this Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation at the same time that the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company.

 

b)                Partial Exercise. Any partial exercise of this Warrant resulting in the purchase of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares then available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder by an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased as a result of such partial exercise. The Company shall maintain records reflecting the number of Warrant Shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant and the date(s) of such purchase(s).

 

c)                 Cashless Exercise. Except as provided in Section 2(a)(i) hereof, this Warrant may be exercised, in whole or in part in increments of 25,000 Warrant Shares (and subject to the limitations on exercise set forth in Sections 2(a)(i)-(v)), at any time or times on or after the Issue Date and on or prior to the Termination Date at the election of the Holder (in the Holder’s sole discretion) by means of a “cashless exercise,” pursuant to which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing ((A-B) * (X)) by (A), where:

 

(A) = as applicable: (i) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is (1) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof on a day that is not a Trading Day or (2) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof on a Trading Day prior to the opening of “regular trading hours” (as defined in Rule 600(b)(68) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, or (ii) the VWAP on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if the date of such Notice of Exercise is a Trading Day and such Notice of Exercise is both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof during such Trading Day or after the close of “regular trading hours” on such Trading Day;

 

5

 

 

(B) = the Exercise Price of this Warrant; and

 

(X) = the number of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant if such   exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise.

 

Any cashless exercise of this Warrant shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder by an amount equal to the number of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant if such exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise and not the number of Warrant Shares actually received by the Holder.

 

For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that any Warrant Shares issued in a cashless exercise pursuant to this Section 2(c) shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for such Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the Issue Date.

 

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 on the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg L.P., (b)  if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading on a Trading Market 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 (c) 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 Holder and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.

 

Notwithstanding anything in this Warrant to the contrary (except as set forth in Section 2(a)(i) hereof), on the Termination Date, this Warrant shall be automatically exercised via cashless exercise pursuant to this Section 2(c) without any action on the part of the Holder.

d)                  Mechanics of Exercise.

 

i.            Delivery of Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. The Company shall deliver, or shall cause to be delivered, the Warrant Shares acquired hereunder to the Holder within one (1) Trading Day after the date on which the Aggregate Exercise Price has been delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”). Such Warrant Shares shall be in certificated form and will bear an appropriate restrictive legend if required under the terms of this Warrant. The person in whose name any Warrant Shares are to be issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of such shares on the date on which this Warrant was validly exercised, irrespective of the actual date of issuance of such Warrant Shares, except that, if the date of such valid exercise is a date when the stock transfer books of the Company are closed, such person shall be deemed to have become the holder of such Warrant Shares at the close of business on the next succeeding date on which the stock transfer books are open.

 

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 certificate, 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.

 

7

 

 

iii.           Company’s Failure to Timely Deliver Warrant Shares. If either (I) the Company shall fail for any reason or for no reason on or prior to the applicable Warrant Share Delivery Date, if (x) the Company’s transfer agent is not participating in The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program (“FAST”), to issue to the Holder a certificate for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled and register such Common Stock on the Company’s share register or (y) the Company’s transfer agent is participating in FAST, to credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC such number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise of this Warrant or (II) a registration statement covering the issuance or resale of the Warrant Shares that are the subject of the Notice of Exercise (the “Exercise Notice Warrant Shares”) is not available for the issuance or resale, as applicable, of such Exercise Notice Warrant Shares and (x) the Company fails to promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days after such registration statement becomes unavailable, to so notify the Holder and (y) the Company is unable to deliver the Exercise Notice Warrant Shares electronically without any restrictive legend by crediting such aggregate number of Exercise Notice Warrant Shares to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit / Withdrawal At Custodian system (the event described in the immediately foregoing clause (II) is hereinafter referred as a “Notice Failure” (provided that no Notice Failure shall be deemed to have occurred if the Exercise Notice Warrant Shares are freely tradeable upon issuance to the Holder notwithstanding the unavailability of a registration statement and such shares do not bear any restrictive legend) and together with the event described in clause (I) above, an “Exercise Failure”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Holder, if on or prior to the applicable Warrant Share Delivery Date either (I) (x) if the Company’s transfer agent is not participating in FAST and the Company shall have failed to issue and deliver a certificate to the Holder and register such shares of Common Stock on the Company’s share register or, (y) if the Company’s transfer agent is participating in FAST and the Company shall have failed to credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise hereunder or pursuant to the Company’s obligation pursuant to clause (ii) below, or (II) if a Notice Failure occurs, 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 issuable hereunder pursuant to such exercise and which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall, within five (5) Trading Days after the Holder’s request, (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 multiplied by (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 the 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 this Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof. In addition to the foregoing rights, (i) if the Company fails to deliver the applicable number of Warrant Shares upon an exercise pursuant to Section 2(d)(i) by the applicable Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Holder shall have the right to rescind such exercise in whole or in part and retain and/or have the Company return, as the case may be, any portion of this Warrant that has not been exercised pursuant to such Notice of Exercise; provided that the rescission of an exercise shall not affect the Company’s obligation to make any payments that have accrued prior to the date of such notice pursuant to this Section 2(d)(iii) or otherwise, and (ii) if a registration statement covering the issuance or resale of the Warrant Shares that are subject to a Notice of Exercise is not available for the issuance or resale, as applicable, of such Exercise Notice Warrant Shares and the Holder has submitted a Notice of Exercise prior to receiving notice of the non-availability of such registration statement and the Company has not already delivered the Warrant Shares underlying such Notice of Exercise electronically without any restrictive legend by crediting such aggregate number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit / Withdrawal At Custodian system, the Holder shall have the option, by delivery of notice to the Company, to (x) rescind such Notice of Exercise in whole or in part and retain or have returned, as the case may be, any portion of this Warrant that has not been exercised pursuant to such Notice of Exercise; provided that the rescission of a Notice of Exercise shall not affect the Company’s obligation to make any payments that have accrued prior to the date of such notice pursuant to this Section 2(d)(iii) or otherwise, and/or (y) to the extent permitted hereunder, switch some or all of such Notice of Exercise from a cash exercise to a “cashless exercise” pursuant to Section 2(c). In addition to the foregoing, if the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the Warrant Shares subject to a Notice of Exercise by the third Trading Day following 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 Weighted Average Price of the Common Stock on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the fifth Trading Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after the Share Delivery Date until such Warrant Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) with respect to any particular Notice of Exercise, the Holder shall not be entitled to recover any liquidated damages from the Company pursuant to this sentence above in connection with any failure to deliver any Exercise Notice Warrant Shares to the Holder subject to such Notice of Exercise until the aggregate liquidated damages for which the Company would otherwise be liable in respect of all failures to deliver Exercise Notice Warrant Shares hereunder (in the absence of this limitation) exceeds $25,000 (the “LD Threshold”), after which the Holder shall be paid the aggregate amount of all such liquidated damages in respect of all such failures to deliver Exercise Notice Warrant Shares hereunder from the first dollar thereof (including the amount of the LD Threshold), and (ii) the maximum aggregate liquidated damages (cumulatively, inclusive of any and all liquidated damages under this sentence) for which the Company will be liable will in no event exceed an amount equal to (A) $1,000,000, multiplied by (B) a fraction (1) the numerator of which is the initial total number of Warrant Shares in respect of which this Warrant may be exercised as of the Issuance Date, and (2) the denominator of which is 6,847,274, in each case, as proportionately adjusted in accordance with the provisions of Section 3 hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the rights and remedies for the benefit of the Holder set forth in this Section 2(d)(iii) shall not apply with respect to the delivery of the First Tranche Warrant Shares as a result of the imposition of, or failure to remove, the legend contemplated by Section 4(g)(ii) hereof in the manner provided for in that section, and in no event will such imposition of, or failure to remove, such legend constitute either a Notice Failure or an Exercise Failure.

iv.          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 (x) pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction, multiplied by the Exercise Price or (y) round up to the next whole share.

 

v.           Taxes. Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax in respect of the issuance of such Warrant Shares, all of which taxes 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 to the extent permitted under this Warrant; provided, however, that in the event that Warrant Shares are to be so 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. For income tax purposes, the Holder agrees that the Company may withhold from any amounts payable to the Holder or its permitted assignee or permitted transferee any taxes to be withheld from such amounts; provided that the Company shall use reasonable efforts to notify the Holder of the Company’s intention to withhold such taxes and the reason therefor prior to such withholding and the Company shall reasonably cooperate with the Holder to reduce or eliminate the amounts required to be withheld.

vi.          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.

 

Section 3.                  Certain Adjustments.

 

a)                Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (ii) combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or (iii) issues by reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, 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 (and the limitations set forth in Sections 2(a)(i)-(v)) shall be proportionately adjusted such that the Aggregate Exercise Price in respect of the Warrant Shares that remain subject to this Warrant at such time 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)                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 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 (as if the exercise of this Warrant occurred immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction), the number of shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation (if such successor or acquiring corporation assumed the obligations under this Warrant by operation of law, provided that, in the absence of such assumption, immediately prior to the Fundamental Transaction, this Warrant shall be automatically exercised via cashless exercise without any action on the part of the Holder) or shares of Common Stock 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. 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.

 

10

 

 

c)                 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. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3, if at any time the Exercise Price upon any adjustment thereto would be less than par value per share of Common Stock, then the Exercise Price shall equal such par value.

 

d)                Notice to Holder of Adjustment to Exercise Price. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 3, the Company shall within five (5) Trading Days 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.

 

e)                 Rights Upon Distribution of Assets. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to this Section 3 above, if, on or after the Issue Date and on or prior to the Expiration Date, the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of shares of Common Stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property, options, evidence of indebtedness or any other assets by way of a dividend, spin-off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after the issuance of this Warrant, then, in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations or restrictions on exercise of this Warrant, including without limitation, the Maximum Percentage) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution (provided, however, that to the extent that the Holder's right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (and shall not be entitled to beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Distribution (and beneficial ownership) to such extent) and the portion of such Distribution shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time or times as its right thereto would not result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, at which time or times the Holder shall be granted such Distribution (and any Distributions declared or made on such initial Distribution or on any subsequent Distribution held similarly in abeyance) to the same extent as if there had been no such limitation).

 

11

 

 

Section 4.                  Transfer of Warrant.

 

a)                Transferability. Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws, this Warrant and all rights hereunder (including, without limitation, any registration rights) are transferable to any Person, in whole or in part (but if in part, then only in increments representing 25,000 Warrant Shares issuance pursuant hereto), 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 Permitted Fund Transferee or Permitted Fund Transferees, as applicable, and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment (provided that no new Warrant shall be exercisable for less than 25,000 Warrant Shares), 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. This 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.

 

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; provided that no new Warrant shall be exercisable for less than 25,000 Warrant Shares. 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 this Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance with such notice. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the original issue date 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.

 

12

 

 

 

d)            Representation by the Holder. The Holder, by the acceptance hereof, represents and warrants that:

 

i.          it is an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D of the Securities Act;

 

ii.         it is acquiring this Warrant and, upon any exercise hereof, will acquire the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, for investment for its own account and not with a view to or for distributing or reselling such Warrant Shares or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law, except pursuant to sales registered or exempted under the Securities Act.

 

iii.        it understands and acknowledges that this Warrant and the Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise hereof are “restricted securities” under the federal securities laws and may not be offered, sold, pledged or otherwise transferred expect (A) pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and, if the Company requests, upon delivery of an opinion of counsel to such effect, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company or (B) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, in each case in accordance with all applicable state securities laws and the securities laws of other jurisdictions; and

 

iv.        it can bear the economic and financial risk of its investment for an indefinite period and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Warrant and the Warrant Shares.

 

e)            Removal of Legends.

 

i.        Until such time as the Warrant Shares have been sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, or the Warrant Shares are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, any certificate(s) representing the Warrant Shares sold pursuant to this Agreement will be imprinted (and any Warrant Shares issued in book entry form will have a notation in the Company’s stock transfer records) with a legend in substantially the following form (the “Securities Act Legend”):

 

13

 

 

THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION. THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT (1) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT and, if the Company requests, upon delivery of an opinion of counsel to such effect, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company OR (2) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, IN EACH CASE IN ACCORDANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND THE SECURITIES LAWS OF OTHER JURISDICTIONS.

 

ii.       Except as set forth in Section 4(g)(ii) hereof, certificates evidencing the Warrant Shares shall not contain any legend (including the Securities Act Legend): (i) while a registration statement covering the resale of such security is effective under the Securities Act, (ii) if such Warrant Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144, or (iii) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission). If all or any portion of this Warrant is exercised at a time when there is an effective registration statement to cover the resale of the Warrant Shares, or if such Warrant Shares may be sold under Rule 144 or if such legend is not otherwise required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission) then such Warrant Shares shall be issued free of any Securities Act Legend. The Company agrees that following such time as such legend is no longer required under this Section 4(e)(iii) and upon the request of the Holder, the Company will, no later than three (3) Trading Days following the delivery by a Holder to the Company of a certificate representing Warrant Shares, as applicable, issued with a Securities Act Legend (such third Trading Day, the “Legend Removal Date”), deliver or cause to be delivered to such Holder a certificate representing such shares that is free from any Securities Act Legend.

 

f)             Registration Rights. If at any time the Company shall determine to (x) prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement for the sale of Common Stock or other equity securities of the Company, or (y) sell shares of Common Stock or other equity securities of the Company in an underwritten offering pursuant to a registration statement filed with the SEC on Form S-3 (or any successor form or other appropriate form promulgated under the Securities Act) for an offering to be made on a continuous or delayed basis pursuant to Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act, in each case, either for its own account or for the account of other holders of equity securities in the Company, the Company shall (i) promptly, but no less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the anticipated filing date of the registration statement (in the case of clause (x) above) or such sale (in the case of clause (y) above), give to each holder of Warrant Shares written notice thereof and (ii) subject to customary limitations (including, without limitation, underwriter cutbacks) and receipt of customary information, representations and undertakings from the Holder, include in such registration statement or sale, as applicable, all Warrant Shares specified in a written request or requests, made by the holders of the Warrant Shares within five (5) Business Days after receipt of the notice from the Company described in clause (i) above. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 4(f) shall survive the exercise in full of this Warrant or, if this exercise shall have been exercised in part or in full prior to such termination, the termination of this Warrant.

 

14

 

 

g)            Sales Volume Limitation.

 

i.        In the event the Holder exercises this Warrant in respect of any First Tranche Warrant Shares and until all amounts outstanding under the Credit and Guaranty Agreement are repaid in full, the Holder shall not sell an amount of First Tranche Warrant Shares in any single Trading Day in excess of the greater of: (1) two percent (2%) of the reported daily volume of trading in the Common Stock on the Trading Day on which the relevant sale was executed, as reported by the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then listed upon the close of market on such Trading Day, or (2) 100,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Sales Cap”).

 

ii.       Until such time as such legend is removed pursuant to Section 4(g)(iii) hereof, any certificate(s) representing First Tranche Warrant Shares will be imprinted (and any First Tranche Warrant Shares issued in book entry form will have a notation in the Company’s stock transfer records) with a legend in substantially the following form:

 

THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS AGAINST TRANSFER BY THE TERMS OF AN AMENDED AND RESTATED WARRANT AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF SEPTEMBER 21, 2020, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE CORPORATION.

 

iii.      The Company shall, within two Trading Days following its receipt from the Holder of (i) a trading confirmation, as provided by either (A) a selling broker, (B) a trade execution report from a trading order management system of the Holder, (C) a prime brokerage statement of trading activity or (D) other as reasonably agreed between the Holder and the Company, that confirms (1) the date on which any First Tranche Warrant Shares were sold and (2) the number of First Tranche Warrant Shares sold (“Sold First Tranche Warrant Shares”); provided that the Holder may redact or anonymize all information other than (1) and (2); and (ii) any documentation requested by the Company’s transfer agent required to remove the legend referenced in Section 4(g)(ii) hereof (the “Required Documentation”), cause such legend to be removed on a number of First Tranche Warrant Shares that is the lesser of the (1) Sold First Tranche Warrant Shares and (2) Sales Cap. Required Documentation shall be deemed to have been received on a particular Trading Day only if received by the Company and its transfer agent, as applicable, by 5:00 p.m. Central time on such Trading Day.

 

15

 

 

Section 5.              Miscellaneous.

 

a)             No Rights as Stockholder Until Exercise. 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).

 

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 an affidavit of loss and indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of this 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 in this Warrant is not a Business Day, then, such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Business Day.

 

d)             Authorized Shares.

 

i.        During the period this Warrant is outstanding from and after the Issue Date, the Company covenants that 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 in this Warrant 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 or the Holder’s income taxes).

 

16

 

 

ii.        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.

 

iii.       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 use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.

 

iv.      In addition to the foregoing, in the event of any failure by the Company to 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 that results in the failure of the Company to deliver any shares of Common Stock that would have otherwise been deliverable pursuant to a Notice of Exercise (such shares the “Authorized Shares Failure Shares”), (1) the Company will promptly pay to the Holder, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, cash in an amount equal (i) to the product of (x) the number of such Authorized Shares Failure Shares; and (y) the Daily VWAP per share of Common Stock on the date the Holder delivered the applicable Notice of Exercise hereunder (or, if such date is not a VWAP Trading Day, the immediately preceding VWAP Trading Day), minus (ii) if such exercise is not a cashless exercise the Aggregate Exercise Price applicable to such Authorized Shares Failure Shares, to the extent not previously paid; and (2) to the extent the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in settlement of a sale by the Holder of such Authorized Shares Failure Shares, the Company will reimburse the Holder for (x) any brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any, of the Holder incurred in connection with such purchases and (y) the excess, if any, of (A) the aggregate purchase price of such purchases over (B) an amount equal to (i) the product of (I) the number of such Authorized Shares Failure Shares purchased by the Holder; and (II) the Daily VWAP per share of Common Stock on the date the Holder delivered the applicable Notice of Exercise hereunder (or, if such date is not a VWAP Trading Day, the immediately preceding VWAP Trading Day), minus (ii) if such exercise is not a cashless exercise, the Aggregate Exercise Price applicable to such Authorized Shares Failure Shares, to the extent not previously paid.

 

17

 

 

e)             Jurisdiction. This Warrant shall be interpreted and enforced in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to agreements made and to be performed wholly within that jurisdiction without regard to conflicts of laws principles thereof that would result in the application of the law of any other jurisdiction.

 

f)              Restrictions. The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered and the Holder does not utilize cashless exercise, 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 all rights hereunder (other than the Holder’s rights set forth in Section 4(f)) terminate on the Termination Date. 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 out-of-pocket 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.

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.

 

o)             Tax Treatment. This Warrant has been issued as part of an “investment unit” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1273-2(h)), consisting of this Warrant and loans advanced by the Holder pursuant to the Credit and Guaranty Agreement. The Company and the Holder agree that solely for purposes of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1273-2(h), the initial issue price of such loans and the fair market value and purchase price of this Warrant shall be amounts reasonably agreed by the Holder and the Company within thirty (30) days after the Issue Date. The Company and the Holder shall file all income tax returns consistent with the foregoing tax treatment, including the issue price and purchase price specified in the preceding sentence.

p)             Limitation on Exercise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not effect the exercise of any portion of this Warrant, and the Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Warrant and any such exercise shall be null and void and treated as if never made, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, the Holder together with the other Attribution Parties collectively would beneficially own in the aggregate in excess of 9.99% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. For purposes of this Section 5(p), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”). For purposes of this Warrant, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock the Holder may acquire upon the exercise of this Warrant without exceeding the Maximum Percentage, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K or other public filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (the “Reported Outstanding Share Number”). If the Company receives an Exercise Notice from the Holder at a time when the actual number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is less than the Reported Outstanding Share Number, the Company shall (i) notify the Holder in writing of the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding and, to the extent that such Exercise Notice would otherwise cause the Holder’s beneficial ownership, as determined pursuant to this Section 5(p), to exceed the Maximum Percentage, the Holder must notify the Company of a reduced number of Warrant Shares to be purchased pursuant to such Exercise Notice (the number of shares by which such purchase is reduced, the “Reduction Shares”) and (ii) as soon as reasonably practicable, the Company shall return to the Holder the Aggregate Exercise Price (or applicable portion thereof) paid by the Holder for the Reduction Shares. For any reason at any time, upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within one (1) Business Day confirm orally and in writing or by electronic mail to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder and any other Attribution Party since the date as of which the Reported Outstanding Share Number was reported. In the event that the issuance of Common Stock to the Holder upon exercise of this Warrant results in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties being deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, more than the Maximum Percentage of the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock (as determined under Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act), the number of shares so issued by which the Holder’s and the other Attribution Parties’ aggregate beneficial ownership exceeds the Maximum Percentage (the “Excess Shares”) shall be deemed null and void and shall be cancelled ab initio, and the Holder shall not have the power to vote or to transfer the Excess Shares. As soon as reasonably practicable after the issuance of the Excess Shares has been deemed null and void, the Company shall return to the Holder the Aggregate Exercise Price (or applicable portion thereof) paid by the Holder for the Excess Shares. Upon delivery of a written notice to the Company, the Holder may from time to time increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% as specified in such notice; provided that (i) any such increase in the Maximum Percentage will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder and the other Attribution Parties and not to any other holder of Warrants that is not an Attribution Party of the Holder. For purposes of clarity, the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms of this Warrant in excess of the Maximum Percentage shall not be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Holder for any purpose including for purposes of Section 13(d) or Rule 16a-1(a)(1) of the 1934 Act. No prior inability to exercise this Warrant pursuant to this paragraph shall have any effect on the applicability of the provisions of this paragraph with respect to any subsequent determination of exercisability. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 5(p) to the extent necessary to correct this paragraph or any portion of this paragraph which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended beneficial ownership limitation contained in this Section 5(p) or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitation contained in this paragraph may not be waived and shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant. The Holder hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Company shall be entitled to rely on the representations and other information set forth in any Exercise Notice and shall not be required to independently verify whether any exercise of this Warrant would cause the Holder (together with the other Attribution Parties) to collectively beneficially own in excess of the Maximum Percentage of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding after giving effect to such exercise or otherwise trigger the provisions of this Section 5(p).

Execution Version

 

Tellurian Inc.

 

Amended and Restated
Warrant To Purchase Common Stock

 

Number of Shares of Common Stock: 4,181,230 

Date of Issuance: September 21, 2020 (the “Issuance Date”)

 

Tellurian Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of Delaware (the “Company”), hereby certifies that, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Nineteen77 Capital Solutions A LP, the holder hereof or its permitted assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled, subject to the terms, conditions and adjustments set forth below, to purchase from the Company, at the Exercise Price (as defined below) then in effect, at any time or times on or after October 29, 2020 (the “Initial Exercisability Date”), but not after 11:59 p.m., New York time, on the Expiration Date (as defined below) (the “Exercise Period”), four million one hundred eighty-one thousand two hundred thirty (4,181,230) duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (as defined below), subject to adjustment as provided herein (the “Warrant Shares”). Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms in this Warrant to Purchase Common Stock (including any Warrants to Purchase Common Stock issued in exchange, transfer or replacement hereof, this “Warrant”), shall have the meanings set forth in Section 19. The Company and the Holder each acknowledges and agrees that this Warrant amends and restates in its entirety and replaces that certain Warrant to Purchase Common Stock that was issued by the Company to the Holder on April 29, 2020, which is deemed cancelled as of the date hereof.

 

 

 

 

1.             EXERCISE OF WARRANT.

 

(a)            Mechanics of Exercise. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof (including, without limitation, the limitations set forth in Section 1(f)), this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder on any Business Day during the Exercise Period in minimum increments of 25,000 Warrant Shares, by delivery (whether via electronic mail or otherwise in accordance with Section 8) of a duly completed and executed written notice, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Exercise Notice”), of the Holder’s election to exercise this Warrant. Within two (2) Trading Days following the delivery of the Exercise Notice, the Holder shall make payment to the Company of an amount equal to the Exercise Price in effect on the date of such exercise multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised (the “Aggregate Exercise Price”) in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds or, if the provisions of Section 1(d) are applicable, by notifying the Company that this Warrant is being exercised pursuant to a Cashless Exercise (as defined in Section 1(d)). The Holder shall not be required to deliver the original Warrant in order to effect an exercise hereunder, nor shall any ink-original signature or medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) with respect to any Exercise Notice be required. Execution and delivery of the Exercise Notice with respect to less than all of the Warrant Shares shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original Warrant and issuance of a new Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares and 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 this 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 Exercise Notice is delivered to the Company. On or before the first (1st) Trading Day following the date on which the Holder has delivered the applicable Exercise Notice, the Company shall transmit by electronic mail a duly executed and completed acknowledgment of confirmation of receipt of the Exercise Notice, in the form attached to the Exercise Notice, to the Holder and the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”). So long as the Holder delivers the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a Cashless Exercise, if applicable) on or prior to the first (1st) Trading Day following the date on which the Exercise Notice has been delivered to the Company, then on or prior to the earlier of (i) the second (2nd) Trading Day and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period, in each case following the date on which the Exercise Notice has been delivered to the Company, or, if the Holder does not deliver the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a Cashless Exercise, if applicable) on or prior to the first (1st) Trading Day following the date on which the Exercise Notice has been delivered to the Company, then on or prior to the first (1st) Trading Day following the date on which the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a Cashless Exercise, if applicable) is delivered (such earlier date, or if later, the earliest day on which the Company is required to deliver Warrant Shares pursuant to this Section 1(a) (the “Share Delivery Date”), the Company shall (X) provided that the Transfer Agent is participating in The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program (“FAST”), credit such aggregate number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit / Withdrawal At Custodian system, or (Y) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in FAST, issue and dispatch by overnight courier to the address as specified in the Exercise Notice, a certificate, registered 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. The Company shall be responsible for all fees and expenses of the Transfer Agent and all fees and expenses with respect to the issuance of Warrant Shares via DTC, if any, including without limitation for same day processing. Upon delivery of the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of Cashless Exercise, as applicable), the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record and beneficial owner of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised on the date of such delivery, irrespective of the date such Warrant Shares are credited to the Holder’s DTC account or the date of delivery of the certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares, as the case may be. If this Warrant is physically delivered to the Company in connection with any exercise pursuant to this Section 1(a) and the number of Warrant Shares represented by this Warrant submitted for exercise is greater than the number of Warrant Shares being acquired upon an exercise, then the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than three (3) Trading Days after any exercise and at its own expense, issue and deliver to the Holder (or its designee) a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares issuable immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant, less the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is exercised. No fractional Warrant Shares are to be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but rather, the number of Warrant Shares to be issued shall be rounded to the nearest whole number. The Company shall pay any and all transfer, stamp, issuance and similar taxes, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of the Transfer Agent) which may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant; provided, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed with respect to any applicable withholding or the issuance or delivery of the Warrant Shares to any Person other than the Holder, and no such issuance or delivery shall be made unless and until the Person requesting such issuance has paid to the Company the amount of any such tax, or has established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid. The Company’s obligations to issue and deliver Warrant Shares in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof (except for consents and waivers provided pursuant to Section 9), the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to deliver Warrant Shares with respect to an exercise prior to the Holder’s delivery of the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a Cashless Exercise, if applicable) with respect to such exercise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans (as defined in the Credit and Guaranty Agreement) is repaid in cash during the period beginning on the Issuance Date and ending on the day prior to the Initial Exercisability Date, the total number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant may be exercised shall equal the sum of (i) 2,337,177 (“Tranche 1”), plus (ii) 1,844,053 (as may be adjusted pursuant to the following sentence) (“Tranche 2”).  Tranche 2 shall be reduced (but not below zero) to an amount equal to (i) Tranche 2, minus an amount equal to (ii) (A) Tranche 2, multiplied by (B) (x) one, minus (y) a number that is the lesser of: (i) a fraction (1) the numerator of which is: (I) $40,900,000; minus (II) as of the day immediately prior to the Initial Exercisability Date, the principal amount of the Loans (as defined in the Credit and Guaranty Agreement) that have been repaid in cash after the Issuance Date, and (2) the denominator of which is $37,900,000 and (ii) 1.00.

(b)            Exercise Price. For purposes of this Warrant, “Exercise Price” means $1.542 per share, subject to adjustment as provided herein.

 

(c)            Company’s Failure to Timely Deliver Securities. If either (I) the Company shall fail for any reason or for no reason on or prior to the applicable Share Delivery Date, if (x) the Transfer Agent is not participating in FAST, to issue to the Holder a certificate for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled and register such Common Stock on the Company’s share register or (y) the Transfer Agent is participating in FAST, to credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC such number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise of this Warrant or (II) a registration statement covering the issuance or resale of the Warrant Shares that are the subject of the Exercise Notice (the “Exercise Notice Warrant Shares”) is not available for the issuance or resale, as applicable, of such Exercise Notice Warrant Shares and (x) the Company fails to promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days after such registration statement becomes unavailable, to so notify the Holder and (y) the Company is unable to deliver the Exercise Notice Warrant Shares electronically without any restrictive legend by crediting such aggregate number of Exercise Notice Warrant Shares to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit / Withdrawal At Custodian system (the event described in the immediately foregoing clause (II) is hereinafter referred as a “Notice Failure” (provided that no Notice Failure shall be deemed to have occurred if the Exercise Notice Warrant Shares are freely tradeable upon issuance to the Holder notwithstanding the unavailability of a registration statement and such shares do not bear any restrictive legend) and together with the event described in clause (I) above, an “Exercise Failure”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Holder, if on or prior to the applicable Share Delivery Date either (I) (x) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in FAST and the Company shall have failed to issue and deliver a certificate to the Holder and register such shares of Common Stock on the Company’s share register or, (y) if the Transfer Agent is participating in FAST and the Company shall have failed to credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise hereunder or pursuant to the Company’s obligation pursuant to clause (ii) below, or (II) if a Notice Failure occurs, 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 issuable hereunder pursuant to such exercise and which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall, within five (5) Trading Days after the Holder’s request, (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 multiplied by (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 the 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 this Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof. The Company’s current transfer agent participates in FAST. In the event that the Company changes transfer agents while this Warrant is outstanding, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to select a transfer agent that participates in FAST. While this Warrant is outstanding, the Company shall request its transfer agent to participate in FAST with respect to this Warrant. In addition to the foregoing rights, (i) if the Company fails to deliver the applicable number of Warrant Shares upon an exercise pursuant to Section 1 by the applicable Share Delivery Date, then the Holder shall have the right to rescind such exercise in whole or in part and retain and/or have the Company return, as the case may be, any portion of this Warrant that has not been exercised pursuant to such Exercise Notice; provided that the rescission of an exercise shall not affect the Company’s obligation to make any payments that have accrued prior to the date of such notice pursuant to this Section 1(c) or otherwise, and (ii) if a registration statement covering the issuance or resale of the Warrant Shares that are subject to an Exercise Notice is not available for the issuance or resale, as applicable, of such Exercise Notice Warrant Shares and the Holder has submitted an Exercise Notice prior to receiving notice of the non-availability of such registration statement and the Company has not already delivered the Warrant Shares underlying such Exercise Notice electronically without any restrictive legend by crediting such aggregate number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit / Withdrawal At Custodian system, the Holder shall have the option, by delivery of notice to the Company, to (x) rescind such Exercise Notice in whole or in part and retain or have returned, as the case may be, any portion of this Warrant that has not been exercised pursuant to such Exercise Notice; provided that the rescission of an Exercise Notice shall not affect the Company’s obligation to make any payments that have accrued prior to the date of such notice pursuant to this Section 1(c) or otherwise, and/or (y) subject to the provisions of Section 1(d), switch some or all of such Exercise Notice from a cash exercise to a Cashless Exercise. In addition to the foregoing, but subject in each instance to the limitations set forth in Section 1(i) below, if the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the Warrant Shares subject to an Exercise Notice by the third Trading Day following the 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 Weighted Average Price of the Common Stock on the date of the applicable Exercise Notice), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the fifth Trading Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after the Share Delivery Date until such Warrant Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise.

(d)            Cashless Exercise. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if a registration statement covering the issuance or resale of the applicable Exercise Notice Warrant Shares is not available for the issuance or resale, as applicable, of such Exercise Notice Warrant Shares, then the Holder may, in its sole discretion, exercise this Warrant in whole or in part (in increments of 25,000 Warrant Shares in the case of a partial exercise of this Warrant) and, in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company upon such exercise in payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price, elect instead to receive upon such exercise the “Net Number” of shares of Common Stock determined according to the following formula (a “Cashless Exercise”):

 

Net Number = (A x B) - (A x C) 

B

 

For purposes of the foregoing formula:

 

A= the total number of shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised.

 

B= as applicable: (i) the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Exercise Notice if such Exercise Notice is (1) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof on a day that is not a Trading Day, (2) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof on a Trading Day prior to the opening of “regular trading hours” (as defined in Rule 600(b)(68) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, or (3) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof during “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day, or (ii) the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the date of the applicable Exercise Notice if the date of such Exercise Notice is a Trading Day and such Exercise Notice is both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof after the close of “regular trading hours” on such Trading Day.

 

C= the Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Warrant Shares at the time of such exercise.

 

- 4 -

 

 

The Company agrees not to take any position contrary to this Section 1(d).  Without limiting the rights of a Holder to receive Warrant Shares on a “cashless exercise,” and to receive the cash payments contemplated pursuant to Sections 1(c) and 4(b), in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle a Warrant exercise. Any Cashless Exercise of this Warrant shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder by an amount equal to the number of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant if such exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than a Cashless Exercise and not the number of Warrant Shares actually received by the Holder.

 

(e)            Disputes. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price or the arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall promptly issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares that are not disputed and resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 11.

 

(f)             Beneficial Ownership. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not effect the exercise of any portion of this Warrant, and the Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Warrant and any such exercise shall be null and void and treated as if never made, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, the Holder together with the other Attribution Parties collectively would beneficially own in the aggregate in excess of 9.99% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. For purposes of this Section 1(f), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”). For purposes of this Warrant, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock the Holder may acquire upon the exercise of this Warrant without exceeding the Maximum Percentage, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K or other public filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (the “Reported Outstanding Share Number”). If the Company receives an Exercise Notice from the Holder at a time when the actual number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is less than the Reported Outstanding Share Number, the Company shall (i) notify the Holder in writing of the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding and, to the extent that such Exercise Notice would otherwise cause the Holder’s beneficial ownership, as determined pursuant to this Section 1(f), to exceed the Maximum Percentage, the Holder must notify the Company of a reduced number of Warrant Shares to be purchased pursuant to such Exercise Notice (the number of shares by which such purchase is reduced, the “Reduction Shares”) and (ii) as soon as reasonably practicable, the Company shall return to the Holder the Aggregate Exercise Price (or applicable portion thereof) paid by the Holder for the Reduction Shares. For any reason at any time, upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within one (1) Business Day confirm orally and in writing or by electronic mail to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder and any other Attribution Party since the date as of which the Reported Outstanding Share Number was reported. In the event that the issuance of Common Stock to the Holder upon exercise of this Warrant results in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties being deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, more than the Maximum Percentage of the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock (as determined under Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act), the number of shares so issued by which the Holder’s and the other Attribution Parties’ aggregate beneficial ownership exceeds the Maximum Percentage (the “Excess Shares”) shall be deemed null and void and shall be cancelled ab initio, and the Holder shall not have the power to vote or to transfer the Excess Shares. As soon as reasonably practicable after the issuance of the Excess Shares has been deemed null and void, the Company shall return to the Holder the Aggregate Exercise Price (or applicable portion thereof) paid by the Holder for the Excess Shares. Upon delivery of a written notice to the Company, the Holder may from time to time increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% as specified in such notice; provided that (i) any such increase in the Maximum Percentage will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder and the other Attribution Parties and not to any other holder of Warrants that is not an Attribution Party of the Holder. For purposes of clarity, the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms of this Warrant in excess of the Maximum Percentage shall not be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Holder for any purpose including for purposes of Section 13(d) or Rule 16a-1(a)(1) of the 1934 Act. No prior inability to exercise this Warrant pursuant to this paragraph shall have any effect on the applicability of the provisions of this paragraph with respect to any subsequent determination of exercisability. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 1(f) to the extent necessary to correct this paragraph or any portion of this paragraph which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended beneficial ownership limitation contained in this Section 1(f) or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitation contained in this paragraph may not be waived and shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant. The Holder hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Company shall be entitled to rely on the representations and other information set forth in any Exercise Notice and shall not be required to independently verify whether any exercise of this Warrant would cause the Holder (together with the other Attribution Parties) to collectively beneficially own in excess of the Maximum Percentage of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding after giving effect to such exercise or otherwise trigger the provisions of this Section 1(f).

(g)            Required Reserve Amount.  So long as this Warrant remains outstanding, the Company shall at all times keep reserved for issuance under this Warrant a number of shares of Common Stock at least equal to 100% of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock as shall be necessary to satisfy the Company’s obligation to issue shares of Common Stock under the Warrants then outstanding (without regard to any limitations on exercise) (the “Required Reserve Amount”); provided that at no time shall the number of shares of Common Stock reserved pursuant to this Section 1(g) be reduced other than in connection with any exercise of Warrants or such other event covered by Section 2(c) below.  The Required Reserve Amount (including, without limitation, each increase in the number of shares so reserved) shall be allocated pro rata among the holders of the Warrants based on the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Warrants held by each holder thereof on the Issuance Date (without regard to any limitations on exercise) (the “Authorized Share Allocation”). In the event that a holder shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such holder’s Warrants, each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such holder’s Authorized Share Allocation. Any shares of Common Stock reserved and allocated to any Person which ceases to hold any Warrants shall be allocated to the remaining holders of Warrants, pro rata based on the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants then held by such holders thereof (without regard to any limitations on exercise).

 

(h)            Insufficient Authorized Shares. If at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved shares of Common Stock to satisfy its obligation to reserve for issuance the Required Reserve Amount (an “Authorized Share Failure”), then the Company shall promptly take all action reasonably necessary to increase the Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock to an amount sufficient to allow the Company to reserve the Required Reserve Amount for this Warrant then outstanding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, as soon as practicable after the date of the occurrence of an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later than ninety (90) days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall hold a meeting of its stockholders for the approval of an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. In connection with such meeting, the Company shall provide each stockholder with a proxy statement and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to solicit its stockholders’ approval of such increase in authorized shares of Common Stock and the management of the Company shall recommend to the board of directors that it recommend to the stockholders that they approve such proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any such Authorized Share Failure, if the Company is able to obtain the written consent of a majority of the shares of its issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock to approve the increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock, the Company may satisfy this obligation by obtaining such consent and submitting for filing with the SEC an Information Statement on Schedule 14C. In addition to the foregoing, in the event of any Authorized Share Failure that results in the failure of the Company to deliver any shares of Common Stock that would have otherwise been deliverable pursuant to an Exercise Notice (such shares the “Authorized Shares Failure Shares”), (1) the Company will promptly pay to the Holder, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, cash in an amount equal (i) to the product of (x) the number of such Authorized Shares Failure Shares; and (y) the Daily VWAP per share of Common Stock on the date the Holder delivered the applicable Exercise Notice hereunder (or, if such date is not a VWAP Trading Day, the immediately preceding VWAP Trading Day), minus (ii) if such exercise is not a cashless exercise the Aggregate Exercise Price applicable to such Authorized Shares Failure Shares, to the extent not previously paid; and (2) to the extent the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in settlement of a sale by the Holder of such Authorized Shares Failure Shares, the Company will reimburse the Holder for (x) any brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any, of the Holder incurred in connection with such purchases and (y) the excess, if any, of (A) the aggregate purchase price of such purchases over (B) an amount equal to (i) the product of (I) the number of such Authorized Shares Failure Shares purchased by the Holder; and (II) the Daily VWAP per share of Common Stock on the date the Holder delivered the applicable Exercise Notice hereunder (or, if such date is not a VWAP Trading Day, the immediately preceding VWAP Trading Day), minus (ii) if such exercise is not a cashless exercise, the Aggregate Exercise Price applicable to such Authorized Shares Failure Shares, to the extent not previously paid.

(i)             Liquidated Damages Limitations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) with respect to any particular Exercise Notice, the Holder shall not be entitled to recover any liquidated damages from the Company under Section 1(c) above in connection with any failure to deliver any Exercise Notice Warrant Shares to the Holder subject to such Exercise Notice until the aggregate liquidated damages for which the Company would otherwise be liable in respect of all failures to deliver Exercise Notice Warrant Shares hereunder (in the absence of this limitation) exceeds $25,000 (the “LD Threshold”), after which the Holder shall be paid the aggregate amount of all such liquidated damages in respect of all such failures to deliver Exercise Notice Warrant Shares hereunder from the first dollar thereof (including the amount of the LD Threshold), and (ii) the maximum aggregate liquidated damages (cumulatively, inclusive of any and all liquidated damages under Section 1(c)) for which the Company will be liable will in no event exceed the LD Cap.

 

(j)             Taxes. For income tax purposes, the Holder agrees that the Company may withhold from any amounts payable to the Holder or its permitted assignee or permitted transferee any taxes to be withheld from such amounts; provided that the Company shall reasonably cooperate with the Holder to reduce or eliminate the amounts required to be withheld.

 

2.             ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES. The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares shall be adjusted from time to time as follows:

 

(a)            Intentionally omitted.

 

(b)            Voluntary Adjustment by Company. The Company may at any time during the term of this Warrant reduce the then-current Exercise Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors of the Company.

 

(c)            Adjustment Upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company at any time on or after the Issuance Date subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Shares will be proportionately increased. If the Company at any time on or after the Issuance Date combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Shares will be proportionately decreased. Any adjustment under this Section 2(c) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

3.            RIGHTS UPON DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 2 above, if, on or after the Issuance Date and on or prior to the Expiration Date, the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of shares of Common Stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property, options, evidence of indebtedness or any other assets by way of a dividend, spin-off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after the issuance of this Warrant, then, in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations or restrictions on exercise of this Warrant, including without limitation, the Maximum Percentage) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution (provided, however, that to the extent that the Holder's right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (and shall not be entitled to beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Distribution (and beneficial ownership) to such extent) and the portion of such Distribution shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time or times as its right thereto would not result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, at which time or times the Holder shall be granted such Distribution (and any Distributions declared or made on such initial Distribution or on any subsequent Distribution held similarly in abeyance) to the same extent as if there had been no such limitation).

 

4.             PURCHASE RIGHTS; FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTIONS.

 

(a)            Purchase Rights. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 2 above, if at any time on or after the Issuance Date and on or prior to the Expiration Date the Company grants, issues or sells any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations or restrictions on exercise of this Warrant, including without limitation, the Maximum Percentage) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, that to the extent that the Holder's right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (and shall not be entitled to beneficial ownership of such Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right (and beneficial ownership) to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time or times as its right thereto would not result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, at which time or times the Holder shall be granted such right (and any Purchase Right granted, issued or sold on such initial Purchase Right or on any subsequent Purchase Right to be held similarly in abeyance) to the same extent as if there had been no such limitation.

(b)            Fundamental Transaction.In the event that the Company enters into a Fundamental Transaction, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered 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, including, without limitation, which is exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock 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 adjustments to the 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) (the “Successor Entity Security”). Upon the consummation of each Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for the Company (so that from and after the date of the applicable 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 with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein. Upon consummation of each Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity to deliver to the Holder confirmation that there shall be issued upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, in lieu of the shares of Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property (except such items still issuable under Sections 3 and 4(a) above, which shall continue to be receivable thereafter)) issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant prior to the applicable Fundamental Transaction, such shares of common stock (or its equivalent) of the Successor Entity (including its Parent Entity) that the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of the applicable Fundamental Transaction had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to the applicable Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant), as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and without limiting Section 1(f) hereof, the Holder may elect, at its sole option, by delivery of written notice to the Company to waive this Section 4(b) to permit the Fundamental Transaction without the assumption of this Warrant. In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the consummation of each Fundamental Transaction pursuant to which holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive securities or other assets with respect to or in exchange for shares of Common Stock (a “Corporate Event”), the Company shall make appropriate provision to provide the Holder with the right to receive upon an exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction but prior to the Expiration Date, in lieu of the shares of the Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property (except such items still issuable under Sections 3 and 4(a) above, which shall continue to be receivable thereafter)) issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant prior to such Fundamental Transaction, such shares of stock, securities, cash, assets or any other property whatsoever (including warrants or other purchase or subscription rights) (collectively, the “Corporate Event Consideration”) that the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of the applicable Fundamental Transaction had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to the applicable Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant). The provision made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be in a form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder. The provisions of this Section 4(b) shall apply similarly and equally to successive Fundamental Transactions and Corporate Events. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a Change of Control, at the request of the Holder delivered before the 30th day after public disclosure of the consummation of such Change of Control by the Company pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC, the Company (or the Successor Entity) shall purchase this Warrant from the Holder by paying to the Holder, within ten (10) Business Days after such request (or, if later, on the effective date of the Change of Control), an amount equal to the Black Scholes Value of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the effective date of such Change of Control, payable in cash; provided, however, that, if the Change of Control is not within the Company's control, including not approved by the Company's Board of Directors, Holder shall only be entitled to receive from the Company or any Successor Entity, as of the date of consummation of such Change of Control, the same type or form of consideration (and in the same proportion), at the Black Scholes Value of the unexercised portion of this Warrant, that is being offered and paid to the holders of Common Stock of the Company in connection with the Change of Control, whether that consideration be in the form of cash, stock or any combination thereof, or whether the holders of Common Stock are given the choice to receive from among alternative forms of consideration in connection with the Change of Control; provided, further, that if holder of Common Stock are not offered or paid any consideration in such Change of Control, such holders of Common Stock will be deemed to have received common stock of the Successor Entity (which entity may be the Company following such Change of Control) in such Change of Control.

5.             NONCIRCUMVENTION. The Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issuance 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, and will at all times in good faith carry out all of the provisions of this Warrant. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (i) shall not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, (ii) shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (iii) shall, so long as any of the Warrants are outstanding, take all action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the exercise of the Warrants, the number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the exercise of the Warrants then outstanding (without regard to any limitations on exercise).

 

6.             WARRANT HOLDER NOT DEEMED A STOCKHOLDER. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as a holder of this Warrant, shall not be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of capital stock of the Company for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Warrant be construed to confer upon the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as the Holder of this Warrant, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue of stock, reclassification of stock, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise), receive notice of meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise, prior to the issuance to the Holder of the Warrant Shares which such Person is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Warrant. In addition, nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing any liabilities on the Holder to purchase any securities (upon exercise of this Warrant or otherwise) or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company. Notwithstanding this Section 6, the Company shall provide the Holder with copies of the same notices and other information given to the stockholders of the Company generally, contemporaneously with the giving thereof to the stockholders.

9.             AMENDMENT AND WAIVER. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Warrant may only be amended, modified or supplemented by an agreement in writing signed by each party hereto. No waiver by the Company or the Holder of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the party so waiving. No waiver by any party shall operate or be construed as a waiver in respect of any failure, breach or default not expressly identified by such written waiver, whether of a similar or different character, and whether occurring before or after that waiver. No failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any rights, remedy, power or privilege arising from this Warrant shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

 

10.           GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION; JURY TRIAL. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with, and all questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and performance of this Warrant shall be governed by, the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York. Each party hereto 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, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that such party is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address set forth with respect to such party in Section 8 above or such other address as such party subsequently delivers to the other party 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 manner permitted by law. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or operate to preclude a party hereto from bringing suit or taking other legal action against the other party hereto in any other jurisdiction to collect on its obligations or to enforce a judgment or other court ruling in favor of such party.

11.          DISPUTE RESOLUTION. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price or the arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall submit the disputed determinations or arithmetic calculations via electronic mail within two (2) Business Days of receipt of the Exercise Notice or other event giving rise to such dispute, as the case may be, to the Holder. If the Holder and the Company are unable to agree upon such determination or calculation of the Exercise Price or the Warrant Shares within three (3) Business Days of such disputed determination or arithmetic calculation being submitted to the Holder, then the Company shall, within two (2) Business Days submit via electronic mail (a) the disputed determination of the Exercise Price to an independent, reputable investment bank selected by the Company and approved by the Holder or (b) the disputed arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares to the Company’s independent, outside accountant. The Company shall cause at its expense the investment bank or the accountant, as the case may be, to perform the determinations or calculations and notify the Company and the Holder of the results no later than ten (10) Business Days from the time it receives the disputed determinations or calculations. Such investment bank’s or accountant’s determination or calculation, as the case may be, shall be binding upon all parties absent demonstrable error.

 

12.          REMEDIES, OTHER OBLIGATIONS, BREACHES AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. The remedies provided in this Warrant shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Warrant and any other Transaction Documents, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the rights of the Holder or the Company to pursue actual damages for any failure by the other party to comply with the terms of this Warrant. Each of the Company and the Holder acknowledges that a breach by such party of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the other party and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Company and the Holder therefore agree that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the other party shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

14.          SEVERABILITY; CONSTRUCTION; HEADINGS. If any provision of this Warrant is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Warrant so long as this Warrant as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties. The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s). This Warrant shall be deemed to be jointly drafted by the Company and the Holder and shall not be construed against any Person as the drafter hereof. The headings of this Warrant are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Warrant.

In the event that the Company believes that a notice contains material, non-public information relating to the Company or any of its subsidiaries, the Company so shall indicate to the Holder in writing contemporaneously with the delivery of such notice (or promptly following receipt of such notice from the Holder, as applicable), and in the absence of any such written indication, the Holder shall be allowed to presume that all matters relating to such notice do not constitute material, non-public information relating to the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

In the absence of such an executed, written non-disclosure agreement, the Company acknowledges that the Holder may freely trade in any securities issued by the Company, may possess and use any information provided by the Company in connection with such trading activity, and may disclose any such information to any third party.

 

18.          COUNTERPARTS. This Warrant may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same agreement.
