Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Agreement and Plan of Merger

 

As previously reported on a Form 8-K filed on September 6, 2017, WPCS International Incorporated (“ WPCS ”), DC Acquisition Corporation (“ Merger Sub ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of WPCS, and DropCar, Inc. (“ DropCar ”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of September 6, 2017 (the “ Merger Agreement ”), pursuant to which, among other things, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into DropCar, with DropCar surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of WPCS (the “ Merger ”). As a result of the Merger, the DropCar stockholders will acquire a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of WPCS, the senior executive officers of DropCar will become the senior executive officers of WPCS and persons designated by DropCar will become a majority of the members of the WPCS board of directors.

 

On December 4, 2017, WPCS, Merger Sub and DropCar entered into Amendment No. 3 to the Merger Agreement (“ Amendment No. 3 ”). The primary purpose of Amendment No. 3 is to make certain changes to the definition of Exchange Ratio that were agreed to by the parties in connection with the Repricing Offer described below. The principal changes to the definition of Exchange Ratio are as follows:

 

1. The number of shares of WPCS common stock that are deemed to be outstanding at the time of the Merger was increased to 6,530,681. Previously it had been 6,118,689.

 

2. WPCS equity allocation percentage was increased to 16.01%. It had previously been 15%. Consequently, DropCar’s equity allocation percentage is reduced to 83.99% from 85%.

 

As a result of the foregoing changes, the number of shares of WPCS common stock that will be issued to DropCar’s securityholders and advisors will be reduced, although the DropCar securityholders and advisors will still own a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of WPCS common stock following the Merger. The reduction in the number of shares to be issued by WPCS in the Merger will result in a reduction in the number of shares of WPCS common stock that will be allocated to DropCar’s advisors in connection with the Merger. Thus, the Advisory/Commitment Allocation Percentage was reduced to 15.6% from 15.8%.

 

Amendment No. 3 also includes a revised Exhibit D, which sets forth the formula for adjusting the equity allocation percentages in the event WPCS Net Cash (as defined in the Merger Agreement) at the time of the Merger is more or less than $419,000. The change in the formula reflects the changes set forth in paragraphs 1 and 2 above.

 

Finally, Amendment No. 3 includes a new exhibit, B-3, which is the form of an Amended and Restated Support Agreement, dated as of December 4, 2017, which was executed by Alpha Capital Anstalt (“ Alpha ”), DropCar’s largest stockholder, DropCar and WPCS, and which supersedes the Support Agreement that Alpha had previously entered into with DropCar in which it agreed to vote any shares of WPCS common stock that it owns on the record date for the Special Meeting in favor of the Merger. The Amended and Restated Support Agreement provides that Alpha will own 9.99% of the outstanding shares of WPCS common stock on the record date for the Special Meeting (as a result of conversion of shares of WPCS convertible preferred stock and/or exercise of warrants).

 

The preceding summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to Amendment No. 3 and the form of Amended and Restated Support Agreement with Alpha, which are filed as Exhibits 2.1 and 2.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and which are incorporated herein by reference.

   

Repricing Offer

 

On December 4, 2017, WPCS offered (the “ Repricing Offer Letter ”) the holders of its Series H-1 Warrants (the “ Holders ”) the opportunity to exercise such Warrants for cash at a reduced exercise price of $1.21 per share (the “ Reduced Exercise Price ”) provided such Series H-1 Warrants are exercised for cash on or before 5:00 P.M. Eastern Standard time on December 26, 2017 (the “ End Date ”). In addition, if more than 50% of the Series H-1 Warrants are exercised for cash by the Holders prior to the End Date, WPCS will issue to the initial holders of the Series H-1 Warrants a “reload” warrant covering one share for each Series H-1 Warrant exercised during that period with a strike price equal to the fair market value of a share of WPCS common stock on the date such reload warrant becomes issuable (the “ Reload Warrants ”). The terms of the Reload Warrants would be substantially identical to the terms of the Series H-1 Warrants except that: (i) the expiration date of the reload warrant would be seven (7) years from the date of issuance; (ii) the Reload Warrants would have more limited cashless exercise rights than the H-1 Warrants; and (iii) WPCS’ obligation to register the resale of the shares issuable upon exercise of the Reload Warrants will be deferred. Finally, the Holders have entered into an irrevocable agreement with Alpha pursuant to which they have agreed to sell to Alpha any Series H-1 Warrants that are unexercised as of the End Date. Such sale will take place promptly after the End Date. WPCS received acceptance of the Reduced Exercise Price offer from all of the Holders on December 5, 2017.

 

  2  

 

 

If the Holders exercise all their Series H-1 Warrants, the aggregate gross proceeds to WPCS will be approximately $1,474,000.

 

The description of terms and conditions of the Repricing Offer Letter and the Reload Warrants set forth herein do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the form of Repricing Offer Letter and the Reload Warrants, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and 10.2, respectively.

 

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.  

 

The disclosures in Item 1.01, above, with respect to the Reload Warrants are incorporated herein by reference. Neither the Reload Warrants nor the shares of WPCS common stock to be issued upon their exercised have been registered.

 

Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.

 

Reference is made to the Exhibit Index included with this Current Report on Form 8-K.

The Stockholder hereby irrevocably appoints the Company, and any individual designated in writing by it, as attorney-in-fact and proxy for and on behalf of the Stockholder, for and in the name, place and stead of the Stockholder, to: (a) attend any and all meetings of the WPCS Stockholders, (b) vote, express consent or dissent or issue instructions to the record holder to vote the Stockholder’s Subject Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.1 at any and all meetings of the WPCS Stockholders or in connection with any action sought to be taken by written consent of the WPCS Stockholders without a meeting and (c) grant or withhold, or issue instructions to the record holder to grant or withhold, consistent with the provisions of Section 1.1, all written consents with respect to the Subject Shares at any and all meetings of the WPCS Stockholders or in connection with any action sought to be taken by written consent without a meeting. The Company agrees not to exercise the proxy granted herein for any purpose other than the purposes expressly described in this Agreement. The foregoing proxy shall be deemed to be a proxy coupled with an interest, is irrevocable (and as such shall survive and not be affected by the death, incapacity, mental illness or insanity of the Stockholder, as applicable) until the earlier of (i) nine months from the date of the Merger Agreement or (ii) termination of the Merger Agreement and shall not be terminated by operation of law or upon the occurrence of any other event other than the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 4.2. The Stockholder authorizes such attorney and proxy to substitute any other Person to act hereunder, to revoke any substitution and to file this proxy and any substitution or revocation with the Secretary of WPCS. The Stockholder hereby affirms that the proxy set forth in this Section 1.4 is given in connection with and granted in consideration of and as an inducement to the Company to enter into the Merger Agreement and that such proxy is given to secure the obligations of the Stockholder under Section 1.1. The proxy set forth in this Section 1.4 is executed and intended to be irrevocable, subject, however, to its automatic termination upon the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 4.2.

 

1.5. No Solicitation of Transactions . Without limiting and subject to the provisions of Section 4.14 hereof, the Stockholder shall not, directly or indirectly, knowingly take any action that WPCS is prohibited from taking pursuant to Section 4.4 of the Merger Agreement.

LETTER AGREEMENT

 

 

December 4, 2017

 

 

Dear Warrant Holders,

 

The Warrant ledger of WPCS International Incorporated (“ WPCS ”) indicates that you own the Warrant to purchase Common Stock identified on Schedule A hereto (the “ Warrants ”). The Warrants were issued pursuant to Section 2 of that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of July 15, 2015. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the definitions ascribed to such terms in the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Warrants. WPCS desires that you exercise your Warrants in order to generate cash funds for WPCS. To accomplish that WPCS is willing to reduce the Exercise Price of the Warrants and issue an additional warrant to the Warrant Holders to purchase Common Stock on terms nearly identical to the terms of the Warrants, as an inducement to you to presently exercise the Warrants.

 

WPCS hereby temporarily allows the Warrants to be exercised for an Exercise Price equal to the lower of $1.66 or the last consolidated bid closing price as reported on the NASDAQ Stock Market for the Common Stock preceding the date WPCS has received a countersigned copy of this Letter Agreement from all of the holders of Warrants identified on Schedule A hereto (the “ Effective Date ”). This Letter Agreement shall be null and void and of no force and effect unless WPCS has received by the Business Day following the date of this Letter Agreement a countersigned copy of this Letter Agreement from all the Warrant Holders identified on Schedule A .

 

The reduction of the Exercise Price shall be effective only from the Effective Date through 5:00 P.M. Eastern Standard Time on December 26, 2017, fifteen (15) Trading Days thereafter (“ End Date ”). During that time the Warrants will be able to be exercised to buy some or all of the Warrant Shares on the preferential terms described in this Letter Agreement on a cash only basis as described in Section 1(a) of your Warrant.

 

In addition to the potential reduction of the Exercise Price, if at least one-half of the Warrants listed on Schedule A on the Effective Date (“ Threshold Amount ”) are exercised by the End Date, the Warrant Holders of the Warrants identified on Schedule A (regardless if the Warrants are assigned or transferred by you after the Effective Date and exercised by such assignee or transferee) will receive a warrant to purchase Common Stock substantially identical to the Warrant, representing the right to acquire one share of Common Stock for each Warrant Share acquired upon cash exercise of the Warrants after the Effective Date and through the End Date (“ Reload Warrant ”). The Reload Warrant will be identical to the Warrants and grant the Warrant Holders the same rights, benefits and obligations as the Warrants except (i) for Reload Warrants issuable upon exercise of the Threshold Amount, the Exercise Price will be equal to the last consolidated bid closing price as reported on the NASDAQ Stock Market for the Common Stock prior to the date of such exercise of the Threshold Amount, (ii) once the Threshold Amount has been exercised, the Exercise Price of the Reload Warrant issuable in connection with any additional exercise of the Warrants will be equal to the last consolidated bid closing price as reported on the NASDAQ Stock Market for the Common Stock prior to the exercise date of the Warrants giving rise to the issuance of such Reload Warrant, (iii) the Expiration Date shall be seven (7) years after the Exercise Date of the Warrant which required the issuance of the Reload Warrant, and (iv) the Reload Warrant may be exercised at all times on a cash basis and also on a cashless basis as described in Section 2(d) of the Reload Warrant commencing six (6) months after the Date of Issuance of the Reload Warrant and only in the event a Registration Statement for the public resale of the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise thereof is not effective (unless the Warrant holder has waived its right to have the resale of the Warrant Shares registered.). A form of Reload Warrant is annexed hereto as Exhibit 1 .

 

  1  

 

  

The Warrant Holder represents to WPCS that the Warrant Holder has entered into an irrevocable agreement with Alpha Capital Anstalt to sell to Alpha Capital Anstalt all the Warrants that are unexercised as of the End Date. Such sale will take place promptly after the End Date or sooner as agreed to between Alpha and the Warrant Holder.

 

Additionally, in lieu of registration rights granted pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement referred to therein, until the Expiration Date of the Reload Warrants and at a time when 1933 Act, Rule 144b(1)(i) is unavailable for the resale of the Warrant Shares, if WPCS determines to prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the 1933 Act of any of its equity securities (but excluding Forms S-4 or S-8 and similar forms which do not permit such registration), then WPCS shall send to each holder of any of the Reload Warrants or Warrant Shares issued upon exercise of the Reload Warrants (collectively, the “ Securities ”) written notice of such determination and, if within fifteen calendar days after receipt of such notice, any such holder shall so request in writing, WPCS shall include in such registration statement all or any part of the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Reload Warrants, that such holder requests to be registered. Inclusion of such Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Reload Warrants will be subject to customary underwriter cutbacks applicable to all holders of registration rights and minimum cutbacks in accordance with guidance provided by the SEC (including, but not limited to Rule 415). The obligations of WPCS under this paragraph may be waived by any holder of any of the Securities entitled to registration rights under this paragraph, in which case the Warrants holder shall also be deemed to have waived its right to exercise the Reload Warrant on a cashless basis with respect to the Warrant Shares for which registration was waived. The holders whose Warrant Shares are included or required to be included in such registration statement are granted the same rights, benefits, liquidated or other damages and indemnification granted to other holders of securities included in such registration statement. In no event shall the liability of any holder of Securities or permitted successor be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds actually received by such holder upon the sale of the Warrant Shares pursuant to such registration or such lesser amount in proportion to all other holders of securities included in such registration statement. All expenses incurred by WPCS in complying with this paragraph, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, printing expenses (if required), fees and disbursements of counsel and independent public accountants for WPCS, fees and expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred in connection with complying with state securities or “blue sky” laws, fees of the FINRA, transfer taxes, and fees of transfer agents and registrars, are called “ Registration Expenses .” All underwriting discounts and selling commissions applicable to the sale of the Securities are called " Selling Expenses ." WPCS will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with such registration statement. Selling Expenses in connection with such registration statement shall be borne by the holders of the Securities and will be apportioned among all such holders in proportion to the number of Warrant Shares included in a registration statement for a holder relative to all the securities included therein for all selling holders, or as all holders may otherwise agree. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of WPCS to complete the registration pursuant to this paragraph with respect to the Warrant Shares of a particular holder that such holder shall furnish to WPCS in writing such information and representation letters, including a completed form of a securityholder questionnaire, with respect to itself and the proposed distribution by it as WPCS may reasonably request to assure compliance with federal and applicable state securities laws.

 

The Reload Warrant will be delivered within the same period after exercise of a Warrant as the Warrant Shares are deliverable upon exercise of the Warrant. The Reload Warrant will be deemed issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, including with respect to the representations, warranties and undertakings therein contained, mutatis mutandis , which representations and warranties are accurate as of the dates made.

  2  

 

  

The Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants are presently registered for resale pursuant to an effective Registration Statement as described in the Registration Rights Agreement referred to in the Securities Purchase Agreement. WPCS will file a Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission disclosing the effectuation of the reduction of the Exercise Price and the other terms of this Letter Agreement within one (1) Business Day after the Effective Date and file a “sticker” amendment to such effective Registration Statement which must be effective for the public resale of the Warrant Shares immediately upon filing.

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 17. This Warrant is one of the Warrants to purchase Common Stock (the " SPA Warrants ") deemed issued pursuant to Section 2 and subject to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of July 14, 2015 (the " Subscription Date "), by and among the Company and the investors (the " Buyers ") referred to therein (the " Securities Purchase Agreement "). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the definitions ascribed to such terms in the Securities Purchase Agreement.

 

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 at any time or times on or after the Issuance Date, in whole or in part, by (i) delivery of this Warrant and a written notice, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the " Exercise Notice "), of the Holder's election to exercise this Warrant and (ii) (A) payment to the Company of an amount equal to the applicable Exercise Price 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 (B) 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)). 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. On or before the first (1 st ) Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received the

 

   

 

Exercise Notice and this Warrant, the Company shall transmit by facsimile an acknowledgment of confirmation of receipt of the Exercise Notice and this Warrant to the Holder. On or before the third (3rd) Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received the Exercise Notice and this Warrant, so long as the Holder delivers the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a Cashless Exercise) on or prior to the second (2nd) Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received the Exercise Notice and this Warrant (the " Share Delivery Date ") (provided that if the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a Cashless Exercise) has not been delivered by such date, the Share Delivery Date shall be extended one (1) Trading Day after the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a Cashless Exercise) is delivered), the Company shall (X) provided that the Company’s transfer agent (“ Transfer Agent ”) is participating in The Depository Trust Company (" DTC ") Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program and the Warrant Shares are eligible to be issued without a restrictive legend, 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 the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program or the Warrant Shares are not eligible to be issued without a restrictive legend, issue and dispatch by overnight courier to the address as specified in the Exercise Notice, a certificate, registered in the Company's share register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise. 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. Upon delivery of this Warrant, the Exercise Notice and the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a Cashless Exercise) (such date of delivery being the “ Exercise Date ”), the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date 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 submitted 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 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 up to the nearest whole number. The Company shall pay any and all taxes which may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant; pr ovided , 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 such Person other than the Holder 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, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination.

 

(b)    Exercise Price . For purposes of this Warrant, " Exercise Price " means $______, subject to adjustment as provided herein.

 

(c)    Company's Failure to Timely Deliver Securities . If (I) the Company shall fail for any reason or for no reason on or prior to the Share Delivery Date either (a) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program and the Warrant Shares are eligible to be issued without a restrictive legend, to issue to the Holder a certificate without any restrictive legend for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled and register such shares of Common Stock on the Company's share register or (b) if the Transfer Agent is participating in the DTC

Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program and the Warrant Shares are eligible to be issued without a restrictive legend, to credit the Holder's balance account with DTC, for such number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder's exercise of this Warrant the Warrant Shares are not eligible to be issued without a restrictive legend to issue and dispatch by overnight courier to the address as specified in the Exercise Notice for delivery on or before the Share Delivery Date a certificate, registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise, or (II) after the Initial Effective Date (as defined in the Registration Statement) and during the Registration Period (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), (x) the Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) covering the resale of all of the Warrant Shares that are the subject of the Exercise Notice (the " Unavailable Warrant Shares ") is not available for the resale of such Unavailable Warrant Shares, (y) the Company fails to promptly, but in no event later than as required pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement so notify the Holder and (z) the Company fails to, on or prior to the Share Delivery Date, deliver the Warrant Shares 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 event described in the immediately foregoing clause (II) is hereinafter referred as a " Notice Failure ") and either a Notice Failure or an event described in clause (I) above (referred to herein as an " Exercise Failure ") occurs, then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Holder, (X) the Company shall pay in cash to the Holder on each day after the Share Delivery Date and during such Notice Failure or Exercise Failure an amount equal to 1.0% of the product of (A) the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock not issued to the Holder on or prior to the Share Delivery Date and to which the Holder is entitled, and (B) any trading price of the Common Stock selected by the Holder in writing as in effect at any time during the period beginning on the applicable Exercise Date and ending on the applicable Share Delivery Date, and (Y) the Holder, upon written notice to the Company, may void its Exercise Notice with respect to, 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 voiding of an Exercise Notice shall not affect the Company's obligations to make any payments which have accrued prior to the date of such notice pursuant to this Section 1(c) or otherwise. If the Company is required to pay liquidated damages hereunder solely as a result of a Notice Failure, the liquidated damages related thereto will cease to accrue upon delivery of a written notice to the Holder specifying the correct status of the applicable Registration Statement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company acknowledges that the Company may be liable for Registration Delay Payments pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement in the event of an Exercise Failure or Notice Failure. In addition to the foregoing, if an Exercise Failure or Notice Failure occurs, and if on or after the Share Delivery Date the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale through a broker by the Holder of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise that the Holder anticipated receiving from the Company (a " Buy-In "), then the Company shall, within three (3) Trading Days after the Holder's request and in the Holder's discretion, either (i) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder's total purchase price (including brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased (the " Buy-In Price "), at which point the Company's obligation to deliver such certificate (and to issue such shares of Common Stock) or credit such Holder's balance account with DTC for such shares of Common Stock shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing such shares of Common Stock or credit such Holder's balance account with DTC, as applicable, and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of shares of Common Stock, times (B) any trading price of the Common Stock selected by the Holder in writing as in effect at any time during the period beginning on the applicable Exercise Date and ending on the applicable Share Delivery Date. Nothing 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 certificates representing shares of Common Stock (or to electronically deliver such shares of Common Stock) upon the exercise of this Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

(d)    Cashless Exercise . Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary (other than Section 1(f) below), in addition to cash exercises of this Warrant as described in Section 1(a) commencing six (6) months after the Issuance Date and while the Registration Statement covering the resale of the Warrant Shares is not available for the public resale of the Warrant Shares, the Holder may, in its sole discretion (and without limiting the Holder’s rights and remedies contained herein), exercise this Warrant with respect to the Warrant Shares for which such Registration Statement is unavailable, in whole or in part and, subject to the provisions of Section 1(a), 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 the number of Warrant Shares as is computed using the following formula:

 

X =Y(A - B) ÷ A

 

Where:

 

X = the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder.

 

Y = the total number of Warrant Shares for which the Holder has elected to exercise this Warrant pursuant to Section 1(a).

 

A = the Closing Bid Price of the Company’s Common Stock as of the applicable Exercise Date.

 

B = the Exercise Price in effect under this Warrant as of the applicable Exercise Date.

 

For purposes of Rule 144(d) promulgated under the 1933 Act, as in effect on the date hereof, it is intended that the Warrant Shares issued in a Cashless Exercise shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant was originally issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement.

 

(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 12.

 

(f)     Limitations on Exercises . 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 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 the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and the other Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock held by the Holder and all other Attribution Parties plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A) exercise of the remaining, unexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of the other Attribution Parties and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any convertible notes or convertible preferred stock or warrants, including the other SPA Warrants) beneficially owned by the Holder or any other Attribution Party subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained in this Section 1(f). For purposes of this Section 1(f), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities

 

  4  

 

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, Current Report 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 (3) 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 any exercise price 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 shares 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 exercise price 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 (with such increase not effective until the sixty-first (61 st ) day after delivery of such notice) 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 (61 st ) day after such notice is delivered to the Company and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder and the other Attribution Parties and not to any other holder of SPA 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.

 

(g)    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 upon exercise of this Warrant at least a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the exercise of all of this Warrant then outstanding (the " Required Reserve Amount" and the failure to have such sufficient number of authorized and unreserved shares of Common Stock, an " Authorized Share Failure "), then the Company shall immediately take all action 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 sixty (60) 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 to cause its board of directors to recommend to the stockholders that they approve such proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such time of an Authorized Share Failure, the Company is able to obtain the written consent of a majority of the shares of its issued and outstanding Common Stock to approve the increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock without soliciting its stockholders, the Company may satisfy this obligation by obtaining such consent and submitting for filing with the SEC an Information Statement on Schedule 14C. In the event that upon any exercise of this Warrant, the Company does not have sufficient authorized shares to deliver in satisfaction of such exercise, then unless the Holder elects to void such attempted exercise, the Holder may require the Company to pay to the Holder within three (3) Trading Days of the applicable exercise, cash in an amount equal to the product of (i) the quotient determined by dividing (x) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company is unable to deliver pursuant to this Section 1(g), by (y) the total number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations or restrictions on exercise of this Warrant) and (ii) the Black Scholes Value; provided, that (x) references to "the day immediately following the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction" in the definition of "Black Scholes Value" shall instead refer to "the date the Holder exercises this Warrant and the Company cannot deliver the required number of Warrant Shares because of an Authorized Share Failure" and (y) clause (iii) of the definition of "Black Scholes Value" shall instead refer to "the underlying price per share used in such calculation shall be the highest Weighted Average Price during the period beginning on the date of the applicable date of exercise and the date that the Company makes the applicable cash payment."

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)    Adjustment Upon Subdivision or Combination of Shares of Common Stock . If the Company at any time on or after the Subscription 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 Subscription 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(b) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

 

3.                   RIGHTS UPON DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS . If 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

 

  6  

 

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, and the Company shall reserve the Holder’s pro rata share of the Distribution pending complete exercise of this Warrant, 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 of 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).

 

4.       PURCHASE RIGHTS; FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTIONS; REGISTRATION RIGHTS .

 

(a)                Purchase Rights . In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 2 above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to all of the record holders of any class of Common Stock (the " Purchase Rights "), then the Holder will be entitled, and the Company shall reserve the Holder’s pro rata share of the Purchase Rights pending complete exercise of this Warrant, 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 shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue 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 shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right (and beneficial ownership) to such extent).

 

(b)                Fundamental Transactions . In the event of any Fundamental Transaction, this Warrant shall, immediately after such Fundamental Transaction, remain outstanding and shall thereafter, be exercisable for the number of Warrant Shares then exercisable under this Warrant, subject to appropriate adjustment (in form and substance satisfactory to the Holder) in the Exercise Price to the value per share for the Common Stock reflected by the terms of such Fundamental Transaction, and a corresponding immediate adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant without regard to any limitations or restrictions on exercise, if the value so reflected is less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, sale or similar transaction). The provisions of this Section 4(b) shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, sales or similar transactions. The Company shall not effect any such Fundamental Transaction unless, prior to the consummation thereof, the successor Person (if other than the Company) resulting from such Fundamental Transaction, shall assume, by written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant and satisfactory to the Holder, the obligation to deliver to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares then exercisable under this Warrant, subject to adjustment, in accordance with the foregoing provisions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, with respect to any Fundamental Transaction, the Holder shall have the right to elect prior to the consummation of such

 

  7  

 

Fundamental Transaction, to give effect to the exercise rights contained in Section 1 instead of giving effect to the provisions contained in this Section 4(b) with respect to this Warrant.

 

(c)                Registration Rights . In lieu of the registration rights granted pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, until the Expiration Date and at a time when Rule 144b(1)(i) of the 1933 Act is unavailable for the resale of the issued and issuable Warrant Shares, if the Company determines to prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the 1933 Act of any of its equity securities (but excluding Forms S-4 or S-8 and similar forms which do not permit such registration), then the Company shall send to the Holder written notice of such determination and, if within fifteen calendar days after receipt of such notice, the Holder shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such registration statement all or any part of the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant that the Holder requests to be registered. Inclusion of such issued and issuable Warrant Shares will be subject to customary underwriter cutbacks applicable to all holders of registration rights and minimum cutbacks in accordance with guidance provided by the SEC (including, but not limited to Rule 415). The obligations of the Company under Section 4(c) may be waived by any Holder entitled to registration rights under this Section 4(c) in which case the Warrant Holder shall also be deemed to have waived its right to exercise this Warrant on a cashless basis with respect to those Warrant Shares for which registration was waived. The Holder whose Warrant Shares are included or required to be included in such registration statement are granted the same rights, benefits, liquidated or other damages and indemnification granted to other holders of securities included in such registration statement. In no event shall the liability of any Holder or permitted successor be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds actually received by such Holder upon the sale of the Warrant Shares pursuant to such registration or such lesser amount in proportion to all other holders of securities included in such registration statement. All expenses incurred by the Company in complying with Section 4(c), including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, printing expenses (if required), fees and disbursements of counsel and independent public accountants for the Company, fees and expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred in connection with complying with state securities or “blue sky” laws, fees of the FINRA, transfer taxes, and fees of transfer agents and registrars, are called “ Registration Expenses .” All underwriting discounts and selling commissions applicable to the sale of the Warrant Shares are called " Selling Expenses ." The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with such registration statement. Selling Expenses in connection with such registration statement shall be borne by the beneficial Holders of the Warrant Shares included in the registration statement and will be apportioned among all such Holders in proportion to the number of Warrant Shares included in a registration statement for a Holder relative to all the securities included therein for all selling holders, or as all selling holders may otherwise agree. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to complete the registration pursuant to Section 4(c) with respect to the Warrant Shares of a particular Holder that such Holder shall furnish to the Company in writing such information and representation letters, including a completed form of a securityholder questionnaire, with respect to itself and the proposed distribution by it as the Company may reasonably request to assure compliance with federal and applicable state securities laws.

 

5.       NONCIRCUMVENTION . The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, 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, and will at all times in good faith carry out all of the provisions of this Warrant and take all action as may be required to protect the rights of the Holder. 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 proper exercise of this Warrant by the Holder, and (iii) shall, so long as any of the SPA Warrants are outstanding, take all action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its

 

  8  

 

authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the exercise of the SPA Warrants, the number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the exercise of the SPA 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 share capital 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.

 

7.       REISSUANCE OF WARRANTS .

 

(a)                Transfer of Warrant .

This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder at the principal office of the Company, for a new Warrant or Warrants (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant, and each such new Warrant will represent the right to purchase such portion of such Warrant Shares as is designated by the Holder at the time of such surrender; provided , however , that no SPA Warrants for fractional Warrant Shares shall be given.

 

(d)                Issuance of New Warrants . Whenever the Company is required to issue a new Warrant pursuant to the terms of this Warrant, such new Warrant (i) shall be of like tenor with this Warrant, (ii) shall represent, as indicated on the face of such new Warrant, the right to purchase the Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant (or in the case of a new Warrant being issued pursuant to Section 7(a) or Section 7(c), the Warrant Shares designated by the Holder which, when added to the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the other new Warrants issued in connection with such issuance, does not exceed the number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant), (iii) shall have an issuance date, as

It is expressly understood and agreed that the time of exercise specified by the Holder in each Exercise Notice shall be definitive and may not be disputed or challenged by the Company.

 

9.       AMENDMENT AND WAIVER . Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions of this Warrant may be amended or waived and the Company may take any action herein prohibited, or omit to perform any act herein required to be performed by it, only if the Company has obtained the written consent of the Required Holders, and with respect to any amendment, the amendment is in writing and signed by the Company, except that any Holder may waive the Company’s performance hereunder or provide consent as the only such Holder.

 

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. The Company 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 it 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.

THE COMPANY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS WARRANT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

The remedies provided in this Warrant shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Warrant and the 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 right of the Holder to pursue actual damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Warrant. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Company therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the holder of this Warrant 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.   TRANSFER . This Warrant and the Warrant Shares may be offered for sale, sold, transferred, pledged or assigned without the consent of the Company.

 

15.   SEVERABILITY . 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).

In the event that the Company believes that a notice contains material, nonpublic information relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries, the Company so shall indicate to such Holder contemporaneously with delivery of such notice, and in the absence of any such indication, the Holder shall be allowed to presume that all matters relating to such notice do not constitute material, nonpublic information relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries.
