Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Registered Offering

On April 2, 2019, Real Goods Solar, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with three institutional and accredited investors (the “Investors”). Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company will sell to the Investors (a) “Primary Units,” each consisting of one share of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 (“Common Stock”), and a Series R Warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock (the “Series R Warrant), and (b) “Alternative Units,” each consisting of a Prepaid Series S Warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock (the “Series S Warrants,” and together with the Series R Warrants, collectively, the “Warrants”), and a Series R Warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock. The purchase price for a Primary Unit is $0.19 and the purchase price for an Alternative Unit is $0.18. The Primary Units and the Alternative Units are referred to in this Current Report on Form 8-K collectively as the “Units.” Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company will sell to the Investors an aggregate of approximately $3,028,273 of the Primary Units and approximately $257,425 of the Alternative Units. The aggregate gross proceeds from the offering are approximately $3.3 million. The closing of the offering is expected to occur on or about April 2, 2019, subject to the satisfaction of certain customary closing conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement. The Company expects to receive net proceeds of approximately $2.9 million at the closing, after deducting commissions to the Placement Agent (as defined below) and estimated offering expenses associated with the offering payable by the Company. The Investors have participated in the Company’s past securities offerings.

The Company offered and sold the Units, the shares of Commons Stock and the Series R Warrants issued as part of the Primary Units, and the Series S Warrant and the Series R Warrants issued as a party of the Alternative Units pursuant to an effective registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-215985). In addition, the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants are also registered on the same registration statement. In the Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to maintain an effective registration statement covering the issuance of the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants.

The Units will not be issued or certificated. The Series R Warrants and the Series S Warrants, as applicable, will be issued in physical form and may be transferred separately immediately thereafter. The Warrants will not be listed on any national securities exchange or other trading market, and no trading market for the Warrants is expected to develop.

Terms of the Series R Warrants

Each Primary Unit and Alternative Unit contains a Series R Warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock. The Series R Warrants will be exercisable upon issuance and will remain exercisable until the fifth anniversary of the date of issuance. The initial exercise price of the Series R Warrants is $0.20 per share. The exercise price is subject to adjustments for stock splits or similar events, and if the Company in the future issue shares of Common Stock or securities exercisable for or convertible into shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share less than the exercise price then in effect, then the exercise price will be reduces to such lower effective price per share. In addition, the Company may, with the consent of the “required holders” (as defined in the Series R Warrants), reduce the then current exercise price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Company’s board of directors.

Under certain circumstances, the holders of the Series R Warrants may elect to exercise them through a cashless exercise, in which case the holders will receive upon such exercise the “net number” of shares of Common Stock determined according to the formula set forth in the Series R Warrants and the Company will not receive the exercise price. Further, on or after the 60th day following issuance, if the volume weighted price of the Common Stock for five consecutive trading days is less than the exercise price, the holder may thereafter, in its sole discretion and regardless of whether the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a Series R Warrant is not covered by a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), elect to exercise a Series R Warrant without payment of any exercise price and receive a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product of (x) the aggregate number of shares that would be issuable upon exercise of a Series R Warrant if such exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise and (y) 0.50.

A holder may not exercise a Series R Warrant and the Company may not issue shares of Common Stock under a Series R Warrant if, after giving effect to the exercise or issuance, the holder together with its affiliates would beneficially own in excess of a set percentage of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock. The cap will be set on the date of issuance at a percentage not in excess of 9.99%, at each holder’s election. If no election is made, the initial cap will be set at 4.99%. At each holder’s option, the cap may be increased or decreased to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99%, except that any increase will not be effective until the 61st day after notice to us.

The holders of the Series R Warrants are entitled to acquire options, convertible securities or rights to purchase the Company’s securities or property granted, issued or sold pro rata to the holders of its Common Stock on an “as if exercised for Common Stock” basis. The holders of the Series R Warrants are entitled to receive any dividend or other distribution of the Company’s assets (or rights to acquire its assets), at any time after the issuance of the Series R Warrants, on an “as if exercised for Common Stock” basis.

The Series R Warrants prohibit the Company from entering into transactions constituting a “fundamental transaction” (as defined in the Series R Warrants) unless the successor entity assumes all of the Company’s obligations under the Series R Warrants and the other transaction documents in a written agreement approved by the “required holders” of the Series R Warrants. Further, after a fundamental transaction, upon the request of a holder, the Company is required to purchase such holder’s Series R Warrants for an amount equal to the “Black Scholes value” (as defined in the Series R Warrants) of the remaining unexercised portion of such Series R Warrants. The definition of “fundamental transactions” includes, but is not limited to, mergers, a sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, certain tender offers and other transactions that result in a change of control.

Terms of the Series S Warrants

The exercise price for a Series S Warrant will be paid at the closing except for the further payment of the $0.01 exercise price per share, which a holder will pay upon exercise. The Series S Warrants will have substantially the same terms as the Series R Warrants, other than (i) the foregoing, (ii) the exercise price is not subject to adjustment upon subsequent issuances of shares of Common Stock or securities exercisable for or convertible into shares of Common Stock, and (iii) holders may not require the Company to purchase the Series R Warrants for the “Black Scholes value.”

Additional Terms of the Purchase Agreement

The terms of the Purchase Agreement limit the Company’s ability to issue securities in the future:

From the date of the Purchase Agreement until 90 “trading days” (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) after the closing of the offering, the Company may not issue, enter into any agreement to issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any shares of Common Stock, or any security which would entitle the holder to acquire at any time shares of Common Stock.

From the date of the Purchase Agreement until one year after the closing of the offering, the Company may not effect or enter into an agreement to effect any issuance of shares of Common Stock or any security which would entitle the holder to acquire at any time shares of Common Stock involving a “variable rate transaction” (as defined in the Purchase Agreement). The term “variable rate transaction” generally means a transaction in which the Company (a) issues or sells any debt or equity securities that are convertible into, exchangeable or exercisable for, or include the right to receive, additional shares of Common Stock either (i) at a conversion price, exercise price or exchange rate or other price that is based upon, and/or varies with, the trading prices of or quotations for the shares of Common Stock at any time after the initial issuance of such debt or equity securities or (ii) with a conversion, exercise or exchange price that is subject to being reset at some future date after the initial issuance of such debt or equity security or upon the occurrence of specified or contingent events directly or indirectly related to the Company’s business or the market for the Common Stock, or (b) enters into, or effects a transaction under, any agreement, including, but not limited to, an equity line of credit, whereby the Company may issue securities at a future determined price.

The Purchase Agreement also provides that, until the one year anniversary of the closing of the offering, the Investor has the right to participate in any future “subsequent financing” (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) for cash consideration in an amount equal to up to 35% of such subsequent financing, on the same terms, conditions and price provided for in such subsequent financing.

However, the limitations on securities issuances and participation right described above do not apply to “exempt issuances” (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) (with respect to the limitation on securities issuances, so long as such exempt issuance is not a “variable rate transaction”). The term “exempt issuance” generally means the issuance of: (a) shares of Common Stock or options to the Company’s employees, officers or directors pursuant to any stock or option plan duly adopted for such purpose, by a majority of the non-employee members of the Company’s board of directors or a majority of the members of a committee of non-employee directors established for such purpose for services rendered to the Company; (b) the warrant the Company expects to issue to the Placement Agent in connection with this offering; (c) securities upon the exercise, exchange or conversion of the securities sold in this offering, the warrant the Company expects to issue to the Placement Agent in connection with this offering and/or other securities exercisable or exchangeable for or convertible into shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on the date of the Purchase Agreement, subject to certain limitations; (d) up to 250,000 shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to an exemption from registration to the lender, or any successor thereto, who is a party to any revolving or other credit facility that is outstanding prior to the date of the Purchase Agreement or to which the Company becomes a party thereafter; (e) securities issued pursuant to acquisitions or strategic transactions approved by a majority of the Company’s disinterested directors, subject to certain limitations; (f) securities issued in a transaction in which the Company is not issuing securities primarily for the purpose of raising capital from retail investors or one or more entities whose primary business is investing in securities, subject to certain limitations; or (g) securities issued in connection with the settlement of any dispute or disagreement with, or litigation claim against, the Company outstanding as of the date of the Purchase Agreement, subject to certain limitations.

For 75 days after the closing of the offering, the Company may not undertake or announce a reverse or forward stock split or reclassification of the Common Stock.

The Purchase Agreement also contains customary representations, warranties, covenants, including indemnifications, and closing conditions.

Leak-Out Agreements

On April 2, 2019, the Company entered into separate and substantially similar leak-out agreements directly with each of the Investors. Under the leak-out agreements, during the period commencing on the date of the Purchase Agreement and ending May 1, 2019, each Investor (together with certain of its affiliate) may not sell, dispose or otherwise transfer, directly or indirectly (including, without limitation, any sales, short sales, swaps or any derivative transactions that would be equivalent to any sales or short positions), on any trading day, shares of Common Stock (including the shares of Common Stock purchased in the offering and issuable upon exercise of the Series R Warrants and the Series S Warrants and other shares of Common Stock held or acquired in the future), in an amount more than a specified percentage of the trading volume of the Common Stock on the principal trading market, subject to certain exceptions. The aggregate trading volume for all Investors is 30% of the trading volume of the Common Stock on the principal trading market during each trading day during the above-referenced leak-out period, subject to certain exceptions. This restriction does not apply to any actual “long” (as defined in Regulation SHO promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) sales by an Investor (together with certain of its affiliate) at a price greater than $0.24. Further, this restriction does not apply to sales or transfers of any such shares of Common Stock in transactions which do not need to be reported on the OTCQX consolidated tape (or equivalent thereof) so long as the purchaser or transferee executes and delivers a leak-out agreement. After such sale or transfer, future sales of the securities covered by the leak-out agreement by the original owner (together with certain of its affiliate) and the purchaser or transferee will be aggregated to determine compliance with the terms of the leak-out agreement.

Placement Agent

Dawson James Securities, Inc. acted as the exclusive placement agent for the offering (the “Placement Agent”) pursuant to the terms an engagement letter, dated March 19, 2019 (the “Placement Agency Agreement”). In connection with the closing of the offering, the Company expects to pay the Placement Agent a cash fee equal to approximately $231,000, an amount equal to 7% of the gross proceeds received by the Company from the offering. The Company has agreed to reimburse the Placement Agent’s reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses up to a maximum of $5,000 and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket legal expenses up to a maximum of $100,000.

In addition to the cash fees set forth above, Dawson James, as placement agent, has a right to purchase for the sum of $100 a warrant to purchase up to an aggregate of 8% of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock sold in the offering and issuable upon exercise of the Series S Warrants (exclusive of any shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Series R Warrants). The placement agent warrant will have similar terms as the Series R Warrants, other than (i) it will expire five years after the effective date of the offering; (ii) it will be exercisable through a cashless exercise regardless of whether the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the placement agent warrant are covered by a registration statement under the Securities Act but only based on the net number of shares; (iii) the exercise price will be 125% of the public offering price per Primary Unit; (iv) certain covenants appearing in the Series R Warrants will be removed in the placement agent warrant; (v) the initial beneficial ownership limitation will be set at 4.99%; (vi) the placement agent warrant will have certain demand and piggyback registration rights with respect to the shares issuable upon exercise of the placement agent warrant; and (vii) pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(g), the placement agent warrant and the underlying securities will not be transferable for 6 months from the date of issuance, except the transfer of any security:

by operation of law or by reason of reorganization of the Company;

to any FINRA member firm participating in the offering and the officers or partners thereof, if all securities so transferred remain subject to the lock-up restriction set forth above for the remainder of the time period;

if the aggregate amount of securities of the Company held by the holder of the placement agent warrant or related persons do not exceed 1% of the securities being offered;

that is beneficially owned on a pro-rata basis by all equity owners of an investment fund, provided that no participating member manages or otherwise directs investments by the fund, and participating members in the aggregate do not own more than 10% of the equity in the fund; or

the exercise or conversion of any security, if all securities received remain subject to the lock-up restriction set forth above for the remainder of the time period.

Additionally, the Company has agreed to indemnify the Placement Agent against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribute to payments the Placement Agent may be required to make because of those liabilities.

The Placement Agency Agreement also contains customary representations, warranties and covenants.

The descriptions of each of the Purchase Agreement, the Series R Warrant, the Series S Warrant, the leak-out agreements and the Placement Agency Agreement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the forms attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1, 4.1, 4.2, 10.2 and 1.1, respectively.

Disclaimers of Representations and Warranties

The representations and warranties of the Company and its subsidiaries contained in the Purchase Agreement and the Placement Agency Agreement have been made solely for the benefit of the parties thereto and beneficiaries thereof. In addition, such representations and warranties (a) have been made only for purposes of such documents, (b) in some cases, have been qualified by documents filed with, or furnished to, the Securities and Exchange Commission by the Company before the date of the Purchase Agreement and the Placement Agency Agreement, (c) are subject to materiality qualifications contained therein which may differ from what may be viewed as material by investors, (d) were made only as of the date of the Purchase Agreement and the Placement Agency Agreement, or such other date as is specified in such documents, and (e) have been included in the Purchase Agreement and the Placement Agency Agreement for the purpose of allocating risk between the contracting parties rather than establishing matters as facts.

Accordingly, the Purchase Agreement and the Placement Agency Agreement are included with this filing only to provide investors with information regarding the terms of such documents, and not to provide investors with any other factual information regarding the Company or its subsidiaries or their respective business. You should not rely on the representations and warranties or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Purchase Agreement and the Placement Agency Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the Company’s public disclosures.

Nasdaq Delisting and Exchange Act Section 12 Registration

The Common Stock is currently registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the “Exchange Act.” On March 12, 2019 the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC filed a Form 25-NSE with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which delisted the Common Stock from Nasdaq on March 22, 2019 and will deregister the Common Stock from Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act on June 10, 2019. We plan to file a registration statement on Form 8-A to register the Common Stock pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act before June 10, 2019.

Our Common Stock currently trades on the OTCQX under the symbol “RGSE.”

Preliminary Fourth Quarter of 2018 Results and Business Update

The following unaudited preliminary results for our fourth quarter ended December 31, 2018 are subject to the completion of our quarterly closing and review procedures, as well as the regular annual audit by our independent registered public accounting firm, and therefore is subject to change.

During the fourth quarter, a significant amount of the 2018 Notes was converted to into shares of our Common Stock.

2018 Annual Report

On March 27, 2019, our Board of Directors authorized commencement of a plan to significantly reduce operations in our residential solar division to reduce the associated annual cash outflow, a matter that has previously raised substantial doubt about our ability to operate as a going concern. The report of our independent accounting firm included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 was unqualified with an explanatory paragraph for substantial doubt about our ability to operate as a going concern. We commenced commercialization of a new product, POWERHOUSE™, during the first quarter of 2019. The revenue for the first quarter from the new product was immaterial and, accordingly, we expect the report of our independent accounting firm to be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 will be unqualified with an explanatory paragraph for substantial doubt about our ability to operate as a going concern. We require additional time to complete related disclosures. On March 29, 2019, we filed a Form 12b-25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to provide notice that we are unable to file our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 by the prescribed due date without unreasonable effort or expense. We intend to file our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 on or before the fifteenth calendar day following the prescribed due date.

In addition, the disclosure schedules to the Purchase Agreement contained the following information:

The following unaudited preliminary results for the Company’s fourth quarter ended December 31, 2018 are subject to the completion of its quarterly closing and review procedures, as well as the regular annual audit by its independent registered public accounting firm, and therefore is subject to change.

The information under this Item 7.01 and the press release attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 are being furnished by the Company pursuant to Item 7.01. In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information contained under this Item 7.01 and the press release attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liability of that section. In addition, this information shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into any of the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in any such filing.

Item 8.01. Other Events.

The Company is including in this Item 8.01 certain risk factors set forth in the Prospectus Supplement for purposes of incorporating such risk factors by reference into certain of the Company’s outstanding registration statements.

We need to successfully commercialize POWERHOUSE™ or increase our sales, installations and revenue in order to achieve our goal of operating profitability.

Our current levels of sales, installations and revenue are insufficient for profitable operations. We believe we must commercialize POWERHOUSE™ 3.0, the principle component of our revenue growth strategy. Alternatively, we must increase our sales, installations and revenue in our Solar Division to achieve our goal of operating profitably. If we are unsuccessful in executing these plans, we will be unable to increase revenue and will not achieve our goal of operating profitability.

An increase in our cost of materials could arise as a result of the United States imposing trade remedies on imported solar panels, cells, inverters, batteries or other products related to our business.

During 2018, the United States and China each imposed new tariffs on various products imported from the other country. The U.S. tariffs include an additional 25% tariff on solar panels and cells that are manufactured in China and a tariff on inverters, certain batteries and other electrical equipment currently set at 25% effective January 1, 2019. The United States also has, from time to time, imposed, or announced tariffs on goods imported from other countries we use in our business. We cannot predict what actions may ultimately be taken with respect to tariffs or trade relations between the United States and other countries, what products may be subject to such actions, or what actions may be taken by the other countries in retaliation. The adoption and expansion of trade restrictions, the occurrence of a trade war, or other governmental action related to tariffs or trade agreements or policies has the potential to adversely impact our supply chain, our costs, our suppliers, and the U.S. economy, which could in turn adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operation.

An increase in our cost of materials could arise as a result of changes in the price of oil and the foreign currency exchange rate for Chinese yuan.

The baseplate of our POWERHOUSE™ in-roof solar shingle is plastic and, accordingly, changes in the price of oil will affect our cost of this material. Currently, we purchase the solar laminate for our POWERHOUSE™ in-roof solar shingle from a Chinese manufacturer, and, accordingly, changes in the Chinese yuan verses the US Dollar will affect our cost of this material.

We may be unable to successfully commercialize POWERHOUSE™ 3.0, which may negatively impact our business and results of operation.

There are risks we must address to successfully commercialize POWERHOUSE™ 3.0:

The adequacy of, and access to, capital necessary to commercialize POWERHOUSE™ 3.0;

Our ability to satisfy the conditions and our obligations under the exclusive domestic and international world-wide Technology License Agreement with Dow Global Technologies LLC for its POWERHOUSE™ solar shingles;

Our ability to grow a nationwide network of local roofers and solar installers to purchase POWERHOUSE™ solar shingles;

Our ability to contract with homebuilders to purchase POWERHOUSE™ solar shingles for their communities;

Our ability to manage a supply chain, including the cost and availability of raw materials, in order to achieve production levels and competitive pricing of the POWERHOUSE™ 3.0 shingles;

Our ability to successfully expand operations and realize profitable revenue growth from the sale and installation of POWERHOUSE™ 3.0;

Our ability to successfully and timely expand our POWERHOUSE™ 3.0 business outside of the United States and manage foreign exchange risks associated with the POWERHOUSE™ 3.0 business;

Intellectual property infringement claims, and warranty claims related to the POWERHOUSE™ 3.0 business; and

Competition in the built-in photovoltaic solar system business.

Our License with Dow for the exclusive use of the POWERHOUSE™ trademark name is subject to our selling of 50 megawatts of POWERHOUSE™ 3.0 in-roof shingle within the first 5 years and failure to do so could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operation.

If we do not sell 50 megawatts of POWERHOUSE™ 3.0 in-roof shingles during the first 5 years after obtaining UL certification, Dow has the right to amend the license to be non-exclusive. If that were to happen, Dow would be allowed to grant rights to others to sell POWERHOUSE™ 3.0 in-roof solar shingles and use associated intellectual property, thereby increasing competition, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operation.

While we are exploring and evaluating strategic alternatives, we may not be successful in identifying or completing any strategic alternative and any such strategic alternative may not yield additional value for shareholders.

On March 7, 2019, we announced that we had commenced a review of strategic alternatives which could result in, among other things, the possible sale of the Company. Our exploration of strategic alternatives may not result in the identification or consummation of any transaction. In addition, we may incur substantial expenses associated with identifying and evaluating potential strategic alternatives. The process of exploring strategic alternatives may be time consuming and disruptive to our business operations, and if we are unable to effectively manage the process, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected. Any potential transaction and the related valuation would be dependent upon a number of factors that may be beyond our control, including, among other factors, market conditions, industry trends, the interest of third parties in our business and the availability of financing to potential buyers on reasonable terms.

We will likely need to receive approval from our shareholders to increase the number of shares of our Common Stock authorized for issuance in order to raise additional capital from equity financing in the future.

Following this offering, the Company expects to have approximately 11 million shares of Common Stock available for issuance in the future of the 150 million shares of Common Stock currently authorized. If the Company needs to raise additional capital from the sale of shares of Common Stock in the future and we have an insufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized, we will need to receive approval from our shareholders to amend our articles of incorporation to increase the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance.

Our Common Stock could become subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s “penny stock” regulations, which may limit the liquidity of Common Stock held by our shareholders.

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted regulations which generally define a “penny stock” to be an equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to specific exemptions. Based on our Common Stock’s trading price below $5.00 per share, if we are unable in the future to continue to satisfy an available exemption from the definition of “penny stock,” then our Common Stock would be considered a penny stock for purposes of federal securities laws. Penny stock is subject to regulations, which affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell such securities. Broker-dealers who recommend a penny stock to persons (other than established customers and accredited investors) must make a special written suitability determination and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to a transaction prior to sale.

If penny stock regulations apply to our Common Stock, it may be difficult to trade the stock because compliance with the regulations can delay and/or preclude certain trading transactions. Broker-dealers could be discouraged from effecting transactions in our Common Stock if it penny stock regulations apply because of the sales practice and disclosure requirements. This could adversely affect the liquidity or price of our Common Stock and impede the sale of the Common Stock in the secondary market.

Best Efforts : It is understood that DJS’s involvement in the Transaction is strictly on a reasonable best efforts basis and that the consummation of the Transaction will be subject to, among other things, market conditions. It is understood that DJS’s assistance in the Transaction will be subject to the satisfactory completion of such investigation and inquiry into the affairs of the Company as DJS deems appropriate under the circumstances (such investigation hereinafter to be referred to as “ Due Diligence ”) and to the receipt of all internal approvals of DJS in connection with the Transaction.

In addition, the Company agrees to make available to DJS upon request from time to time the officers, directors, accountants, counsel and other advisors of the Company.

(b)

Unless the Transaction is an underwritten offering by DJS, the sale of Securities to any Investor will be evidenced by a purchase agreement (“ Purchase Agreement ”) between the Company and such Investor in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and DJS. Prior to the signing of any Purchase Agreement, officers of the Company with responsibility for financial affairs will be available to answer inquiries from prospective investors.

Fees : As compensation for the services to be rendered by DJS hereunder, the Company will pay DJS the following fee (“ Transaction Fee ”):

Representations and Warranties: The Company agrees DJS may rely upon, and is a third-party beneficiary of, the representations and warranties, and applicable covenants, set forth in any agreements with Investors in the Transaction

New York, NY • Columbia, MD, • Manasquan, NJ • Boca Raton, FL	Member FINRA/SIPC

Indemnification :

The Company will indemnify DJS and its affiliates, stockholders, directors, officers, employees and controlling persons (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) against all losses, claims, damages, expenses and liabilities, as the same are incurred (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel), relating to or arising out of its activities hereunder or pursuant to this Agreement, except to the extent that any losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) are found in a final judgment (not subject to appeal) by a court of law to have resulted primarily and directly from DJS’s willful misconduct or gross negligence in performing the services described herein.

Promptly after receipt by DJS of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action or proceeding with respect to which DJS is entitled to indemnity hereunder, DJS will notify the Company in writing of such claim or of the commencement of such action or proceeding, and the Company will assume the defense of such action or proceeding and will employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to DJS and will pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, DJS will be entitled to employ counsel separate from counsel for the Company and from any other party in such action if counsel for DJS reasonably determines that it would be inappropriate under the applicable rules of professional responsibility for the same counsel to represent both the Company and DJS. In such event, the reasonable fees and disbursements of no more than one such separate counsel will be paid by the Company, in addition to local counsel. The Company will have the exclusive right to settle the claim or proceeding provided that the Company will not settle any such claim, action or proceeding without the prior written consent of DJS, which will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

The Company agrees to notify DJS promptly of the assertion against it or any other person of any claim or the commencement of any action or proceeding relating to a transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

If for any reason the foregoing indemnity is unavailable to DJS or insufficient to hold DJS harmless, then the Company shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by DJS as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and DJS on the other, but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and DJS on the other that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any relevant equitable considerations. The amounts paid or payable by a party in respect of losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees and expenses incurred in defending any litigation, proceeding or other action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions hereof, DJS’s share of the liability hereunder shall not be in excess of the amount of fees actually received, or to be received, by DJS under this Agreement (excluding any amounts received as reimbursement of expenses incurred by DJS).

The Company and DJS agree that the Arbitrator (as defined below) shall enforce the plain terms of this Indemnity and Reimbursement provision, notwithstanding any law or public policy to the contrary.

These indemnification provisions shall remain in full force and effect whether or not the transaction contemplated by this Agreement is completed and shall survive the termination of this Agreement and shall be in addition to any liability that the Company might otherwise have to any indemnified party under this Agreement or otherwise.

Governing Laws : This Agreement will be deemed to have been made and delivered in the State of Florida and both the binding provisions of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby will be governed as to validity, interpretation, construction, effect and in all other respects by the internal laws of the State of Florida, without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof. Each of DJS and the Company: (i) agrees that any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement and/or the transactions contemplated hereby will be instituted exclusively in the courts located in the county of Palm Beach, Florida; (ii) waives any objection which it may have or hereafter to the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding; and (iii) irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of the courts located in the county of Palm Beach, Florida, in any such suit, action or proceeding. Each of DJS and the Company further agrees to accept and acknowledge service of any and all process which may be served in any such suit, action or proceeding in such courts and agrees that service of process upon the Company mailed by certified mail to the Company’s address will be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon the Company, in any such suit, action or proceeding, and service of process upon DJS mailed by certified mail to DJS’s address will be deemed in every respect effective service process upon DJS, in any such suit, action or proceeding. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company agrees that neither DJS nor its affiliates, and the respective officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives of DJS, its affiliates and each other person, if any, controlling DJS or any of its affiliates, will have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to the Company for or in connection with the engagement and transactions described herein except for any such liability for losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred by the Company that are finally judicially determined to have resulted from the bad faith or gross negligence of such individuals or entities. DJS will act under this Agreement as an independent contractor with duties to the Company.

11.

Right of First Refusal : Except as provided for below with regard to a “Strategic Transaction,” provided that DJS raises $10 million in gross proceeds actually received by the Company in a Transaction or series of Transactions, DJS will be given right of first refusal on all public and private financings during the nine (9) month period after the term has expired. Any decision by DJS to act in such capacity will be documented in a separate agreement or amendment hereto, which would include, among other things, customary fees, indemnification of DJS, the terms of any such financing, conditions precedent including due diligence, and current conditions, as well as customary representations and warranties. DJS’ right of first refusal shall not apply to the Company’s pursuit of a “ Strategic Transaction ” defined as: (i) the sale or other conveyance of a controlling interest in the Company to any person, or persons; (ii) a “change of control” transaction whether by way of sale, merger, reorganization, or otherwise, (iii) issuance of Securities to holders of securities outstanding as of the date hereof, including, without limitation, upon exchange of such outstanding securities for Securities or the reduction of the exercise or conversion price of such outstanding securities, and; (iv) issuance of Securities to strategic institutional investors that shall provide to the Company additional benefits in addition to the investment of funds, but shall not include a transaction in which the Company is issuing securities primarily for the purpose of raising capital.

12.

Confidentiality : Except as required by law, this Agreement and the services and advice to be provided by DJS hereunder, shall not be disclosed to third parties without DJS’s prior written permission. Notwithstanding, DJS shall be permitted to advertise the services it provided in connection with the Transaction subsequent to the consummation of the Transaction. Such expense shall not be reimbursable under paragraph 7 hereof.

13.

No Brokers : The Company represents and warrants to DJS that there are no brokers, representatives or other persons which have an interest in compensation due to DJS from any transaction contemplated herein or which would otherwise be due any fee, commission or remuneration upon consummation of any Transaction.

14.

Authorization : The Company and DJS represent and warrant that each has all requisite power and authority to enter into and carry out the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement does not breach or conflict with any agreement, document or instrument to which it is a party or bound.

15.

Independent Contractor : The Company acknowledges that in performing its services, DJS is acting as an independent contractor, and not as a fiduciary, agent or otherwise, of the Company or any other person. The Company acknowledges that in performing its services hereunder, DJS shall act solely pursuant to a contractual relationship on an arm’s length basis (including in connection with determining the terms of any Transaction). Any review by DJS of the Company, the transactions contemplated hereby or other matters relating to such transactions has been and shall be performed solely for the benefit of DJS and shall not be on behalf of the Company. The Company agrees that it shall not claim that DJS owes a fiduciary duty to the Company in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto. No one other than the Company is authorized to rely upon the engagement of DJS hereunder or any statements, advice, opinions or conduct by DJS. The Company further acknowledges that DJS may perform certain of the services described herein through one or more of its affiliates and any such affiliates shall be entitled to the benefit of this Agreement.

16.

Conflicts : The Company acknowledges that DJS and its affiliates may have and may continue to have investment banking and other relationships with parties other than the Company pursuant to which DJS may acquire information of interest to the Company. DJS shall have no obligation to disclose such information to the Company or to use such information in connection with any contemplated transaction.

17.

Anti-Money Laundering : To help the United States government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering, the federal laws of the United States require all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each person with whom they do business. This means we must ask you for certain identifying information, including a government-issued identification number (e.g., a U.S. taxpayer identification number) and such other information or documents that we consider appropriate to verify your identity, such as certified articles of incorporation, a government-issued business license, a partnership agreement or a trust instrument.

18.

Costs and Attorneys’ Fees: If any action, suit, arbitration proceeding, or any other proceeding is instituted arising out of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall recover all of such party’s costs, including, without limitation, the court costs and attorneys’ fees incurred therein, including any and all appeals or petitions therefrom. As used herein, “attorneys’ fees” shall mean the full and actual costs of any legal services actually rendered in connection with the matters involved, calculated on the basis of the usual fee charged by the attorneys performing such services. The parties agree that final, binding, non-appealable arbitration is the sole method of dispute resolution under this Agreement.

19.

Pre-Arbitration Informal Dispute Resolution and Arbitration:

Informal Dispute Resolution. The parties shall use good faith efforts to resolve any disputes that arise under this Agreement. In the event of a dispute, the party with a dispute shall provide written notice, by facsimile or email, of the dispute to the other party. Both parties shall meet in person or by conference call within fifteen (15) business days of the effective date of a notice of a dispute to resolve the issues in dispute. The effective date of the notice of a dispute is the date that the notice was faxed or e-mailed.

Arbitration. The Company and DJS agree that any dispute concerning this Agreement, including disputes as to arbitrability, that cannot be resolved by the Pre-Arbitration Informal Dispute Resolution meeting shall be resolved through final, binding, non-appealable arbitration, before a single, neutral arbitrator, at JAMS, in Boca Raton, Florida (the “ Arbitrator ”). Venue of all arbitration shall be JAMS Dispute Resolution Center, Boca Raton, Florida. The Parties initially shall split the costs of any arbitration proceeding fifty-fifty (50-50), but the arbitrator must award arbitration costs and attorneys’ fees to the prevailing party. Judgment on any arbitration award may be entered in any Court having jurisdiction. Any arbitration award shall be in United States Dollars and may be enforced in any jurisdiction in which the party against whom enforcement is sought maintains assets. The Arbitrator shall have no authority to award punitive, consequential, indirect, special, exemplary, or other damages not measured by the prevailing party’s actual compensatory damages and may not, in any event, make any ruling, finding, or award that does not conform to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR LOST PROFITS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE PERFORMANCE OR BREACH THEREOF, EVEN IF SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY THEREOF. The Parties agree that the arbitrator shall enforce the terms of this Agreement, including the indemnity and reimbursement provisions of this Agreement, and no bar order or any other Court order shall operate to extinguish DJS’s claims to indemnity and reimbursement. The Parties agree not to seek to avoid their indemnity and reimbursement obligations in any Court and that this Agreement shall be a complete defense to any such efforts. The Parties agree to limit their respective testimony at any arbitration hearing to three hours per side. This section provides the sole recourse for the settlement of any disputes arising out of, in connection with, or related to this Agreement.

20.

Miscellaneous : This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding and agreement between the Company and DJS with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior understanding or agreements between the parties with respect thereto, whether oral or written, express or implied. Any amendments or modifications must be executed in writing by both parties. It is understood and agreed that DJS’s services hereunder will not include providing any tax, accounting, legal or regulatory advice or developing any tax strategies for the Company. This Agreement and all rights, liabilities and obligations hereunder shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each party’s successors but may be assigned without prior written approval of the other party. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but such counterparts shall, together, constitute only one instrument. The descriptive headings of the Paragraphs of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not affect in anyway the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

Exhibit 4.1

real goods solar, INC.

SERIES R Warrant To Purchase Common Stock

Warrant No.: R-___

Number of Shares of Common Stock: ___

Date of Issuance: _________ __, 2019 (“ Issuance Date ”)

Real Goods Solar, Inc., a Colorado corporation (the “ Company ”), hereby certifies that, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged , [PURCHASER] , the registered holder hereof or its permitted assigns (the “ Holder ”), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company, at the Exercise Price (as defined in Section 1(b)) then in effect, at any time or times on or after the Issuance Date (the “ Initial Exercisability Date ”), but not after 11:59 p.m., New York time, on the Expiration Date, up to such number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock equal to ________, subject to adjustment as provided herein (the “ Warrant Shares ”). Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms in this Series R 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 Series R Warrants to Purchase Common Stock (the “ Series R Warrants ”) originally issued pursuant to Section 2 of the Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of April 2, 2019 (the “ Subscription Date ”), by and among the Company and the purchasers signatory thereto.

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 Initial Exercisability Date, in whole or in part, by (i) delivery of 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 (as defined in Section 1(b)) 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)). The Holder shall not be required to deliver the original Warrant in order to effect an exercise hereunder. 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. No ink-original Exercise Notice shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Exercise Notice be required. Execution and delivery of an Exercise Notice for all of the then remaining Warrant Shares shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original of this Warrant after delivery of the Warrant Shares in accordance with the terms hereof. On or before the first (1 ^st ) Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received the Exercise Notice, the Company shall transmit by facsimile an acknowledgment of confirmation of receipt of the Exercise Notice to the Holder and the Company’s transfer agent (the “ Transfer Agent ”). On or before the earlier of (i) the second (2nd) Trading Day and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period, following the date on which the Company has received the Exercise Notice, so long as the Holder delivers the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a Cashless Exercise) on or prior to the first (1st) Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received the Exercise Notice (the “ Share Delivery Date ”) (provided that if the Aggregate Exercise Price has not been delivered by such date, the Share Delivery Date shall be one (1) Trading Day after the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a Cashless Exercise) is delivered), the Company shall, (X) provided that the Transfer Agent is participating in The Depository Trust Company (“ DTC ”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program and either (A) the issuance of the Warrant Shares subject to the Exercise Notice is registered under the 1933 Act on an effective and available registration statement, (B) this Warrant is being exercised via Cashless Exercise or (C) such Warrant Shares may be resold by the Holder pursuant to a Permitted Securities Transaction, 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) otherwise, 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 agrees to maintain a transfer agent that is a participant in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program so long as this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable. 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 the Exercise Notice, 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 (other than the Holder’s income taxes) which may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant. 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. If the Holder exercises this Warrant (other than by Cashless Exercise) at a time when either (I) the issuance of the Warrant Shares subject to the Exercise Notice is not registered under the 1933 Act on an effective and available registration statement or (II) the Holder may not sell the such Warrant Shares pursuant to a Permitted Securities Transaction, then any certificate representing such Warrant Shares may contain a restrictive legend.

(b) Exercise Price . For purposes of this Warrant, “ Exercise Price ” means $0.20, subject to adjustment as provided herein.

(c) Company’s Failure to Timely Deliver Securities . If the Company shall fail for any reason or for no reason, in the manner required by Section 1(a), to issue to the Holder on or prior to the Share Delivery Date either (I) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, a certificate 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 if the Transfer Agent is participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, 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, or (II) if the Registration Statement (as defined in Section 1(d)) covering the issuance of all of the Warrant Shares that are the subject of the Exercise Notice (the “ Unavailable Warrant Shares ”) is not available for the issuance of such Unavailable Warrant Shares and the Company fails to promptly, but in no event later than one (1) Trading Day thereafter, (x) so notify the Holder and (y) 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 together with the event described in clause (I) above, an “ Exercise Failure ”), as the case may be, and if on or after the Share Delivery Date the Holder (or any other Person in respect, or on behalf, of the Holder) purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of all or any portion of the number of shares of Common Stock equal to or any portion of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise that the Holder anticipated receiving from the Company (a “ Buy-In ”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Holder, 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 date of the applicable Exercise Notice and ending on the date of such issuance and payment under this Section 1(c). 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, if the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File number 333-215985) or other applicable registration statement under the 1933 Act (the “ Registration Statement ”) covering the issuance of the Unavailable Warrant Shares is not available for the issuance of such Unavailable Warrant Shares the Holder may, in its sole discretion, exercise this Warrant in whole or in part 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)

For purposes of the foregoing formula:

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

as applicable: (i) the VWAP 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 or (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)(64) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, (ii) at the option of the Holder, either (y) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Exercise Notice or (z) the Bid Price of the Common Stock on the principal Trading Market as reported by Bloomberg L.P. as of the time of the Holder’s execution of the applicable Exercise Notice if such Exercise Notice is executed during “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day and is delivered within two (2) hours thereafter (including until two (2) hours after the close of “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day) pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof or (iii) the VWAP 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.

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

the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the date of the Exercise Notice.

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

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

If Warrant Shares are issued in a Cashless Exercise, the parties acknowledge and agree that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the 1933 Act, the Warrant Shares shall take on the registered characteristics of the Warrant being exercised. The Company agrees not to take any position contrary to this Section 1(d). Notwithstanding the foregoing, on or after the 60th day following the Issuance Date, in the event that the VWAP of the Common Stock for 5 consecutive Trading Days is less than the Per Share Purchase Price (subject to adjustment for any stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations, recapitalizations and similar events) for 5 consecutive Trading Days (such 5 Trading Day period, the " Measurement Period "), the Holder may, at any time following the Measurement Period, in its sole discretion and regardless of whether or not there is an effective registration statement covering the issuance of any Warrant Shares, exercise this Warrant in whole or in part and, in lieu of the foregoing or of making any 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 a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product of (x) the aggregate 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 (y) 0.50.

(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) Beneficial Ownership Limitation 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 ___% (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) 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 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 or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% as specified in such notice; provided , however , 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 Series R 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. 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 maximum 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 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 and the other Series R Warrants 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 seventy-five (75) days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall either (x) obtain the written consent of its shareholders for the approval of an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock and provide each shareholder with an information statement with respect thereto or (y) hold a meeting of its shareholders 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 shareholder with a proxy statement and shall use its reasonable best efforts to solicit its shareholders’ approval of such increase in authorized shares of Common Stock and to cause its board of directors to recommend to the shareholders 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, the Company may satisfy this obligation by obtaining such consent and submitting for filing with the SEC an Information Statement on Schedule 14C. The initial number of shares of Common Stock reserved for exercise of this Warrant and the other Series R Warrants and each increase in the number of shares so reserved shall be allocated pro rata among the Holder and the holders of the other Series R Warrants, based on the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations in exercise) issued to the Holder on the Issuance Date (the “ Authorized Share Allocation ”). In the event that the Holder shall sell or otherwise transfer this Warrant, 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 Series R Warrants shall be allocated to the Holder and the remaining holders of Series R Warrants, pro rata based on the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Series R Warrants then held by such holders (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of the Series R Warrants).

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) Voluntary Adjustment By Company . The Company may at any time during the term of this Warrant, subject to the approval of any applicable Eligible Market and with the prior written consent of the Required Holders, 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.

(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.

(c) Subsequent Equity Sales . If the Company or any Subsidiary thereof, as applicable, at any time after the Initial Exercisability Date, while this Warrant is outstanding, shall sell or grant any option to purchase, or sell or grant any right to reprice, or otherwise dispose of or issue (or announce any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition) any Common Stock, Option or Convertible Security, at an effective price per share less than the Exercise Price then in effect (such lower price, the “ Base Share Price ” and such issuances collectively, a “ Dilutive Issuance ”) (it being understood and agreed that if the holder of the Common Stock, Option or Convertible Security so issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase price adjustments, reset provisions, floating conversion, exercise or exchange prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options or rights per share which are issued in connection with such issuance, be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share that is less than the Exercise Price, such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Exercise Price on such date of the Dilutive Issuance at such effective price), then simultaneously with the consummation of each Dilutive Issuance the Exercise Price shall be reduced and only reduced to equal the Base Share Price. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustments shall be made, paid or issued under this Section 2(c) in respect of an Exempt Issuance; provided, however, for the purposes of this Section 2(c), clauses (iv), (vi) and (vii) of Exempt Issuance shall not be deemed an Exempt Issuance. For purposes of clarification, whether or not the Company provides a Dilutive Issuance Notice pursuant to this Section 2(c), upon the occurrence of any Dilutive Issuance, the Holder is entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares based upon the Base Share Price regardless of whether the Holder accurately refers to the Base Share Price in the Exercise Notice. For all purposes of the foregoing (including, without limitation, determining the Base Share Price under this Section 2(c)), the following shall be applicable:

(i) Issuance of Options . If the Company in any manner grants or sells any Options and the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is at any time issuable upon the exercise of any such Option or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of any such Option or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof is less than the Exercise Price then in effect, then such share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the granting or sale of such Option for such price per share. For purposes of this Section 2(c)(i), the “lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of any such Options or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of any such Option or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof” shall be equal to (1) the lower of (x) the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to any one share of Common Stock upon the granting or sale of such Option, upon exercise of such Option and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Security issuable upon exercise of such Option or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof and (y) the lowest exercise price set forth in such Option for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of any such Options or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of any such Option or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof minus (2) the sum of all amounts paid or payable to the holder of such Option (or any other Person) with respect to any one share of Common Stock upon the granting or sale of such Option, upon exercise of such Option and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Security issuable upon exercise of such Option or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof plus the value of any other consideration received or receivable by, or benefit conferred on, the holder of such Option (or any other Person). Except as contemplated below, no further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such shares of Common Stock or of such Convertible Securities upon the exercise of such Options or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof or upon the actual issuance of such shares of Common Stock upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Securities.

(ii) Issuance of Convertible Securities . If the Company in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities and the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is at any time issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof is less than the Exercise Price then in effect, then such share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities for such price per share. For the purposes of this Section 2(c)(ii), the “lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof” shall be equal to (1) the lower of (x) the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to one share of Common Stock upon the issuance or sale of the Convertible Security and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Security or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof and (y) the lowest conversion price set forth in such Convertible Security for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon conversion, exercise or exchange thereof or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof minus (2) the sum of all amounts paid or payable to the holder of such Convertible Security (or any other Person) with respect to any one share of Common Stock upon the issuance or sale of such Convertible Security plus the value of any other consideration received or receivable by, or benefit conferred on, the holder of such Convertible Security (or any other Person). Except as contemplated below, no further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such shares of Common Stock upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Securities or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof, and if any such issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities is made upon exercise of any Options for which adjustment of the Exercise Price has been or is to be made pursuant to other provisions of this Section 2(c), except as contemplated below, no further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made by reason of such issuance or sale.

(iii) Change in Option Price or Rate of Conversion . If the purchase or exercise price provided for in any Options, the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issue, conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities, or the rate at which any Convertible Securities are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock increases or decreases at any time (other than proportional changes in conversion or exercise prices, as applicable, in connection with an event referred to in Section 2(b)), the Exercise Price in effect at the time of such increase or decrease shall be adjusted to the Exercise Price which would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible Securities provided for such increased or decreased purchase price, additional consideration or increased or decreased conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold. For purposes of this Section 2(c)(iii), if the terms of any Option or Convertible Security that was outstanding as of the Initial Exercisability Date are increased or decreased in the manner described in the immediately preceding sentence, then such Option or Convertible Security and the shares of Common Stock deemed issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date of such increase or decrease. No adjustment pursuant to this Section 2(c) shall be made if such adjustment would result in an increase of the Exercise Price then in effect.

(iv) Calculation of Consideration Received . If any Option and/or Convertible Security is issued in connection with the issuance or sale or deemed issuance or sale of any other securities of the Company (as determined by the Holder, the “ Primary Security ”, and such Option and/or Convertible Security, the “ Secondary Securities ” and together with the Primary Security, each a “ Unit ”), together comprising one integrated transaction, the aggregate consideration per share of Common Stock with respect to such Primary Security shall be deemed to be the lowest of (x) the purchase price of such Unit, (y) if such Primary Security is an Option and/or Convertible Security, the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is at any time issuable upon the exercise or conversion of the Primary Security in accordance with Section 2(b)(i) or 2(b)(ii) above and (z) the lowest VWAP of the Common Stock on any Trading Day during the five Trading Day period immediately following the public announcement of such Dilutive Issuance (for the avoidance of doubt, if such public announcement is released prior to the opening of the Principal Market on a Trading Day, such Trading Day shall be the first Trading Day in such five Trading Day period). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in determining the lowest VWAP during the five Trading Days pursuant to clause (z) above, the Holder may, in its sole discretion, elect to set the lowest VWAP prior to the completion of the five Trading Day period at any of the VWAPs calculated up to that date and prior to the end of the five Trading Day period by providing written notice to the Company to elect to immediately set the lowest VWAP at such time. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold for cash, the consideration received therefor will be deemed to be the net amount of consideration received by the Company therefor. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of such consideration received by the Company will be the fair value of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of publicly traded securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by the Company for such securities will be the arithmetic average of the VWAPs of such security for each of the five (5) Trading Days immediately preceding the date of receipt. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued to the owners of the non-surviving entity in connection with any merger in which the Company is the surviving entity, the amount of consideration therefor will be deemed to be the fair value of such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving entity as is attributable to such shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities (as the case may be). The fair market value of any consideration other than cash or publicly traded securities will be determined jointly by the Company and the Holder. If such parties are unable to reach agreement within ten (10) days after the occurrence of an event requiring valuation (the “ Valuation Event ”), the fair market value of such consideration will be determined within five (5) Trading Days after the tenth (10th) day following such Valuation Event by an independent, reputable appraiser jointly selected by the Company and the Holder. The determination of such appraiser shall be final and binding upon all parties absent manifest error and the fees and expenses of such appraiser shall be borne by the Company.

(d) Other Events .

Upon occurrence or consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, and it shall be a required condition to the occurrence or consummation of such Fundamental Transaction that, the Company and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities shall deliver to the Holder confirmation that there shall be issued upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the occurrence or consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, as elected by the Holder solely at its option, shares of Common Stock, Successor Capital Stock or, in lieu of the shares of Common Stock or Successor Capital Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property purchasable upon the exercise of this 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), which for purposes of clarification may continue to be shares of Common Stock, if any, that the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of such Fundamental Transaction or the record, eligibility or other determination date for the event resulting in such Fundamental Transaction, had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction or the record, eligibility or other determination date for the event resulting in such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant), as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the occurrence or consummation of any Fundamental Transaction pursuant to which holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive securities, cash, assets or other property with respect to or in exchange for shares of Common Stock (a “ Corporate Event ”), the Company shall make appropriate provision to ensure that, and any applicable Successor Entity or Successor Entities shall ensure that, and it shall be a required condition to the occurrence or consummation of such Corporate Event that, the Holder will thereafter have the right to receive upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the occurrence or consummation of the Corporate Event, shares of Common Stock or Successor Capital Stock or, if so elected by the Holder, in lieu of the shares of Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property) purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant prior to such Corporate Event (but not in lieu of such items still issuable under Sections 3 and 4(a), which shall continue to be receivable on the Common Stock or on the such shares of stock, securities, cash, assets or any other property otherwise receivable with respect to or in exchange for shares of Common Stock), such shares of stock, securities, cash, assets or any other property whatsoever (including warrants or other purchase or subscription rights and any shares of Common Stock) which the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence or consummation of such Corporate Event or the record, eligibility or other determination date for the event resulting in such Corporate Event, had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such Corporate Event or the record, eligibility or other determination date for the event resulting in such Corporate Event (without regard to any limitations on exercise of this Warrant). 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, the Holder may elect, in its sole discretion, by delivery of written notice to the Company, to waive this Section 4(b) and allow the Company to enter into or be a party to a Fundamental Transaction without the assumption of this Warrant pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4(b), provided , however , that any such waiver shall only bind the Holder with respect to this Warrant and not the Holder with respect to any other warrant or other securities of the Company or any holder of other Series R Warrants.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of Fundamental Transaction, at the request of the Holder delivered before the thirtieth (30th) day after the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, the Company (or the Successor Entity) shall purchase this Warrant from the Holder by paying to the Holder, within five (5) Business Days after such request (or, if later, on the effective date of the Fundamental Transaction), cash in an amount equal to the Black Scholes Value of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date of such Fundamental Transaction. For the purpose of this Section 4(c), “ Black Scholes Value " means the value of this Warrant based on the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model obtained from the "OV" function on Bloomberg determined as of the day immediately following the first public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, or, if the Fundamental Transaction is not publicly announced, the date the Fundamental Transaction is consummated, for pricing purposes and reflecting (i) a risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the remaining term of this Warrant as of such date of request, (ii) an expected volatility equal to the greater of 100% and the 100 day volatility obtained from the HVT function on Bloomberg as of the day immediately following the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, or, if the Fundamental Transaction is not publicly announced, the date the Fundamental Transaction is consummated, (iii) the underlying price per share used in such calculation shall be the greater of (a) the sum of the price per share being offered in cash, if any, plus the per share value of any non-cash consideration, if any, being offered in such Fundamental Transaction and (b) the greater of (x) the last VWAP immediately prior to the public announcement of such Fundamental Transaction and (y) the last VWAP immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, (iv) a zero cost of borrow and (v) a 360 day annualization factor.

PREPAID SERIES S Warrant To Purchase Common Stock

Warrant No.: S-___

Number of Shares of Common Stock: ___

Date of Issuance: _________ __, 2019 (“ Issuance Date ”)

Real Goods Solar, Inc., a Colorado corporation (the “ Company ”), hereby certifies that, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged , [PURCHASER] , the registered holder hereof or its permitted assigns (the “ Holder ”), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company, at the Exercise Price (as defined in Section 1(b)) then in effect, at any time or times on or after the date hereof (the “ Initial Exercisability Date ”), but not after 11:59 p.m., New York time, on the Expiration Date, up to such number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock equal to ________, subject to adjustment as provided herein (the “ Warrant Shares ”). Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms in this Prepaid Series S 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 Prepaid Series S Warrants to Purchase Common Stock (the “ Series S Warrants ”) originally issued pursuant to Section 2 of the Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of April 2, 2019 (the “ Subscription Date ”), by and among the Company and the purchasers signatory thereto. The Exercise Price has been paid upon purchase of this Warrant except for further payment of $0.01 per Warrant Share, to be paid on exercise 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 at any time or times on or after the Initial Exercisability Date, in whole or in part, by (i) delivery of 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 (as defined in Section 1(b)) 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)). The Holder shall not be required to deliver the original Warrant in order to effect an exercise hereunder. 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. No ink-original Exercise Notice shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Exercise Notice be required. Execution and delivery of an Exercise Notice for all of the then remaining Warrant Shares shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original of this Warrant after delivery of the Warrant Shares in accordance with the terms hereof. On or before the first (1st) Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received the Exercise Notice, the Company shall transmit by facsimile an acknowledgment of confirmation of receipt of the Exercise Notice to the Holder and the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”). On or before the earlier of (i) the second (2nd) Trading Day and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period, following the date on which the Company has received the Exercise Notice, so long as the Holder delivers the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a Cashless Exercise) on or prior to the first (1st) Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received the Exercise Notice (the “Share Delivery Date”) (provided that if the Aggregate Exercise Price has not been delivered by such date, the Share Delivery Date shall be one (1) Trading Day after the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a Cashless Exercise) is delivered), the Company shall, (X) provided that the Transfer Agent is participating in The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program and either (A) the issuance of the Warrant Shares subject to the Exercise Notice is registered under the 1933 Act on an effective and available registration statement, (B) this Warrant is being exercised via Cashless Exercise or (C) such Warrant Shares may be resold by the Holder pursuant to a Permitted Securities Transaction, 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) otherwise, 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 agrees to maintain a transfer agent that is a participant in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program so long as this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable. 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 the Exercise Notice, 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 (other than the Holder’s income taxes) which may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant. 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. If the Holder exercises this Warrant (other than by Cashless Exercise) at a time when either (I) the issuance of the Warrant Shares subject to the Exercise Notice is not registered under the 1933 Act on an effective and available registration statement or (II) the Holder may not sell the such Warrant Shares pursuant to a Permitted Securities Transaction, then any certificate representing such Warrant Shares may contain a restrictive legend.

(b) Exercise Price . For purposes of this Warrant, “ Exercise Price ” means the remaining amount of $0.01, subject to adjustment as provided herein. The Exercise Price has been paid upon purchase of this Warrant except for the further payment of $0.01 per Warrant Share, to be paid on exercise hereof.

Net Number = (A x B) - (A x C)

For purposes of the foregoing formula:

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

the remaining $0.01 Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Warrant Shares at the time of such exercise.

the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the date of the Exercise Notice.

(f) Beneficial Ownership Limitation 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 ___% (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) 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 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 or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% as specified in such notice; provided , however , 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 Series S 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. 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 maximum 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 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 and the other Series S Warrants 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 seventy-five (75) days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall either (x) obtain the written consent of its shareholders for the approval of an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock and provide each shareholder with an information statement with respect thereto or (y) hold a meeting of its shareholders 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 shareholder with a proxy statement and shall use its reasonable best efforts to solicit its shareholders’ approval of such increase in authorized shares of Common Stock and to cause its board of directors to recommend to the shareholders 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, the Company may satisfy this obligation by obtaining such consent and submitting for filing with the SEC an Information Statement on Schedule 14C. The initial number of shares of Common Stock reserved for exercise of this Warrant and the other Series S Warrants and each increase in the number of shares so reserved shall be allocated pro rata among the Holder and the holders of the other Series S Warrants, based on the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations in exercise) issued to the Holder on the Issuance Date (the “ Authorized Share Allocation ”). In the event that the Holder shall sell or otherwise transfer this Warrant, 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 Series S Warrants shall be allocated to the Holder and the remaining holders of Series S Warrants, pro rata based on the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Series S Warrants then held by such holders (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of the Series S Warrants).

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) [RESERVED]

(c) Other Events . If any event occurs of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section 2, but not expressly provided for by such provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features), then the Company’s Board of Directors will make an appropriate adjustment in the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares, as mutually determined by the Company’s Board of Directors and the Required Holders, so as to protect the rights of the Holder; provided , however , that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 2(c) will increase the Exercise Price or decrease the number of Warrant Shares as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 2.

4. PURCHASE RIGHTS; FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTIONS .

Upon the occurrence or consummation of any Fundamental Transaction, and it shall be a required condition to the occurrence or consummation of any Fundamental Transaction that, the Company and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally, shall succeed to, and the Company shall cause any Successor Entity or Successor Entities to jointly and severally succeed to, and be added to the term “Company” under this Warrant (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, and the provisions of this Warrant referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to each of the Company and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally), and the Company and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally, may exercise every right and power of the Company prior thereto and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company prior thereto under this Warrant with the same effect as if the Company and such Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally, had been named as the Company in this Warrant, and, solely at the request of the Holder, if the Successor Entity and/or Successor Entities is a publicly traded corporation whose common stock is quoted on or listed for trading on an Eligible Market, shall deliver (in addition to and without limiting any right under this Warrant) to the Holder in exchange for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity and/or Successor Entities evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant and exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of the Successor Entity and/or Successor Entities (the “ Successor 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 (such corresponding number of shares of Successor Capital Stock to be delivered to the Holder shall be equal to the greater of (A) the quotient of (i) the aggregate dollar value of all consideration (including cash consideration and any consideration other than cash (“ Non-Cash Consideration ”), in such Fundamental Transaction, as such values are set forth in any definitive agreement for the Fundamental Transaction that has been executed at the time of the first public announcement of the Fundamental Transaction or, if no such value is determinable from such definitive agreement, as determined in accordance with Section 12 with the term “Non-Cash Consideration” being substituted for the term “Exercise Price”) that the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of such Fundamental Transaction or the record, eligibility or other determination date for the event resulting in such Fundamental Transaction, had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction or the record, eligibility or other determination date for the event resulting in such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) (the “ Aggregate Consideration ”) divided by (ii) the per share Closing Sale Price of such Successor Capital Stock on the Trading Day immediately prior to the consummation or occurrence of the Fundamental Transaction and (B) the product of (i) the Aggregate Consideration and (ii) the highest exchange ratio pursuant to which any shareholder of the Company may exchange Common Stock for Successor Capital Stock) ( provided , however , that to the extent that the Holder’s right to receive any such shares of publicly traded common stock (or their equivalent) of the Successor Entity would result in the Holder and its other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, if applicable, then the Holder shall not be entitled to receive such shares to such extent (and shall not be entitled to beneficial ownership of such shares of publicly traded common stock (or their equivalent) of the Successor Entity as a result of such consideration to such extent) and the portion of such shares shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time or times, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder and its other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, at which time or times the Holder shall be delivered such shares to the extent as if there had been no such limitation), and such security shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Holder, and with an identical exercise price to the Exercise Price hereunder (such adjustments to the number of shares of capital stock and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting after the consummation or occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction the economic value of this Warrant that was in effect immediately prior to the consummation or occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, as elected by the Holder solely at its option). Upon occurrence or consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, and it shall be a required condition to the occurrence or consummation of such Fundamental Transaction that, the Company and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities shall deliver to the Holder confirmation that there shall be issued upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the occurrence or consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, as elected by the Holder solely at its option, shares of Common Stock, Successor Capital Stock or, in lieu of the shares of Common Stock or Successor Capital Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property purchasable upon the exercise of this 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), which for purposes of clarification may continue to be shares of Common Stock, if any, that the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of such Fundamental Transaction or the record, eligibility or other determination date for the event resulting in such Fundamental Transaction, had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction or the record, eligibility or other determination date for the event resulting in such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant), as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the occurrence or consummation of any Fundamental Transaction pursuant to which holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive securities, cash, assets or other property with respect to or in exchange for shares of Common Stock (a “ Corporate Event ”), the Company shall make appropriate provision to ensure that, and any applicable Successor Entity or Successor Entities shall ensure that, and it shall be a required condition to the occurrence or consummation of such Corporate Event that, the Holder will thereafter have the right to receive upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the occurrence or consummation of the Corporate Event, shares of Common Stock or Successor Capital Stock or, if so elected by the Holder, in lieu of the shares of Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property) purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant prior to such Corporate Event (but not in lieu of such items still issuable under Sections 3 and 4(a), which shall continue to be receivable on the Common Stock or on the such shares of stock, securities, cash, assets or any other property otherwise receivable with respect to or in exchange for shares of Common Stock), such shares of stock, securities, cash, assets or any other property whatsoever (including warrants or other purchase or subscription rights and any shares of Common Stock) which the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence or consummation of such Corporate Event or the record, eligibility or other determination date for the event resulting in such Corporate Event, had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such Corporate Event or the record, eligibility or other determination date for the event resulting in such Corporate Event (without regard to any limitations on exercise of this Warrant). 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, the Holder may elect, in its sole discretion, by delivery of written notice to the Company, to waive this Section 4(b) and allow the Company to enter into or be a party to a Fundamental Transaction without the assumption of this Warrant pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4(b), provided , however , that any such waiver shall only bind the Holder with respect to this Warrant and not the Holder with respect to any other warrant or other securities of the Company or any holder of other Series S Warrants.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall be required to obtain the prior written consent of the Required Holders to enter into, allow and/or consummate a Fundamental Transaction other than one in which a Successor Entity that is a publicly traded corporation whose stock is quoted or listed for trading on an Eligible Market assumes this Warrant such that the Warrant shall be exercisable for the publicly traded Common Stock of such Successor Entity.

If by 9:30 am (New York City time) on such third Trading Day, no public disclosure regarding a transaction with respect to the Subsequent Financing has been made, and no notice regarding the abandonment of such transaction has been received by such Purchaser, such transaction shall be deemed to have been abandoned and such Purchaser shall not be deemed to be in possession of any material, non-public information with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

(i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 4.11 shall not apply in respect of an Exempt Issuance.

4.12 Subsequent Equity Sales .

(a) From the date hereof until ninety (90) Trading Days following the Closing Date, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall issue, enter into any agreement to issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents .

(b) From the date hereof until one (1) year following the Closing Date, the Company shall be prohibited from effecting or entering into an agreement to effect any issuance by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (or a combination of units thereof) involving a Variable Rate Transaction. “ Variable Rate Transaction ” means a transaction in which the Company (i) issues or sells any debt or equity securities that are convertible into, exchangeable or exercisable for, or include the right to receive, additional shares of Common Stock either (A) at a conversion price, exercise price or exchange rate or other price that is based upon, and/or varies with, the trading prices of or quotations for the shares of Common Stock at any time after the initial issuance of such debt or equity securities or (B) with a conversion, exercise or exchange price that is subject to being reset at some future date after the initial issuance of such debt or equity security or upon the occurrence of specified or contingent events directly or indirectly related to the business of the Company or the market for the Common Stock or (ii) enters into, or effects a transaction under, any agreement, including, but not limited to, an equity line of credit, whereby the Company may issue securities at a future determined price; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Company’s voluntary reduction of the exercise price of warrants issued and outstanding on the date of this Agreement as permitted pursuant to the terms of such warrants as of the date of this Agreement shall not constitute a Variable Rate Transaction. Any Purchaser shall be entitled to obtain injunctive relief against the Company to preclude any such issuance, which remedy shall be in addition to any right to collect damages.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 4.12 shall not apply in respect of an Exempt Issuance, except that no Variable Rate Transaction shall be an Exempt Issuance.

4.13 Capital Changes . Until the 75 day anniversary of the Closing Date, the Company shall not undertake or announce a reverse or forward stock split or reclassification of the Common Stock.

4.14 Equal Treatment of Purchasers . No consideration (including any modification of any Transaction Document) shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration is also offered to all of the parties to such Transaction Documents. For clarification purposes, this provision constitutes a separate right granted to each Purchaser by the Company and negotiated separately by each Purchaser, and is intended for the Company to treat the Purchasers as a class and shall not in any way be construed as the Purchasers acting in concert or as a group with respect to the purchase, disposition or voting of the Securities or otherwise.

ARTICLE V.

MISCELLANEOUS

No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of any party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right. Any proposed waiver, modification, supplement or amendment that disproportionately, materially and adversely affects the rights and obligations of any Purchaser relative to the comparable rights and obligations of the other Purchasers shall require the prior written consent of such adversely affected Purchaser. Any waiver, modification, supplement or amendment effected in accordance with this Section 5.5 shall be binding upon each Purchaser and subsequent holder of Securities and the Company.

5.6 Headings . The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.

5.7 Successors and Assigns . This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns. The Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Purchaser (other than by merger). Any Purchaser may assign any or all of its rights under this Agreement to any Person to whom such Purchaser assigns or transfers any Securities, provided that such transferee agrees in writing to be bound, with respect to the transferred Securities, by the provisions of the Transaction Documents that apply to the “Purchasers.”

5.8 No Third-Party Beneficiaries . The Placement Agent shall be the third party beneficiary of the representations and warranties of the Company in Section 3.1 and the representations and warranties of the Purchasers in Section 3.2. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person, except as otherwise set forth in Section 4.9 and this Section 5.8.

5.9 Governing Law . All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of the Transaction Documents shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that all legal Proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any Action or Proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such Action or Proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient venue for such Proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such Action or Proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. If any party shall commence an Action or Proceeding to enforce any provisions of the Transaction Documents, then, in addition to the obligations of the Company under Section 4.9, the prevailing party in such Action or Proceeding shall be reimbursed by the non-prevailing party for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such Action or Proceeding.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

5.21 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL . IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING IN ANY JURISDICTION BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY, THE PARTIES EACH KNOWINGLY AND INTENTIONALLY, TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, HEREBY ABSOLUTELY, UNCONDITIONALLY, IRREVOCABLY AND EXPRESSLY WAIVES FOREVER TRIAL BY JURY.

In February 2015, the Company issued warrants to purchase Common Stock (the “February 2015 Warrants), which contain a provision adjusting the exercise price for certain issuances of securities as well as provisions adjusting the shares and exercise price for stock splits, reverse stock splits and the like. There are currently a total of 9 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the February 2015 Warrants at an exercise price of $6,000.00 per share, after adjusting for the applicable reverse stock splits and subsequent issuances of securities but prior to giving effect to the securities issuable under this Agreement.

In April 2018, the Company issued warrants to purchase Common Stock (the “Series Q Warrants), which contain a provision adjusting the exercise price for certain issuances of securities as well as provisions adjusting the shares and exercise price for stock splits, reverse stock splits and the like. There are currently a total of 235,317 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Series Q Warrants at an exercise price of $0.3223 per share, prior to giving effect to any adjustment resulting from the issuance of the Securities issuable under this Agreement.

As previously disclosed, on April 9, 2018, the Company issued an aggregate of $10.75 million in principal amount and $10 million funding amount (reflecting an original issue discount of $750,000) of Series A senior convertible notes due April 9, 2019 (the “Series A Notes”) and Series B senior secured convertible notes due April 9, 2019 (the “Series B Notes” and, together with the Series A Notes, collectively, the “2018 Convertible Notes”). The 2018 Convertible Notes are convertible at any time, at the option of the holders, into shares of Common Stock at a fixed conversion price. The fixed conversion price is currently $0.3223 per share, subject to adjustment (i) upon certain issuances of securities, (ii) in connection with “variable price securities” (as defined in the 2018 Convertible Notes), (iii) upon stock splits and similar events, and (iv) if agreed to by the “required holders” (as defined in the 2018 Convertible Notes) and the Company’s board of directors.

In accordance with the terms of the 2018 Convertible Notes, effective on August 27, 2018, the conversion price was reduced to $0.3067 per share and, effective on August 29, 2018, the 2018 Convertible Note holders waived future adjustment date resets of the conversion price of the 2018 Convertible Notes and the exercise price of the Series Q Warrants (but the conversion price and exercise price remain subject to potential future anti-dilution and stock split related adjustments).

The 2018 Convertible Notes contain certain redemption rights upon, among other things, the occurrence of an event or default or a “fundamental transaction” (as defined in the 2018 Convertible Notes).

Stock Appreciation Rights and Phantom Stock

Under the Company’s 2018 Long-Term Incentive Plan the Company may grant Stock Appreciation Rights either alone, or in conjunction with other awards, either at the time of grant or by amendment thereafter. The plan does not expressly provide for the issuance of “phantom stock.” However, the plan permits the Company’s Compensation Committee to issue any type of award deemed by the Compensation Committee to be consistent with the purposes of the plan. Therefore, it is possible that the Compensation Committee in the future may issue “phantom stock” under the plan.

On March 27, 2019, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized commencement of a plan to significantly reduce operations in the Company’s residential solar division to reduce the associated annual cash outflow, a matter that has previously raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to operate as a going concern. The report of the Company’s independent accounting firm included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 was unqualified with an explanatory paragraph for substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to operate as a going concern. The Company commenced commercialization of a new product, POWERHOUSE™, during the first quarter of 2019. The revenue for the first quarter from the new product was immaterial and, accordingly, the Company we expect the report of its independent accounting firm to be included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 will be unqualified with an explanatory paragraph for substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to operate as a going concern.

Schedule 3.1(j) Litigation

On July 9, 2014, the Company completed a private offering of approximately $7.0 million of its Common Stock and warrants (the “July 2014 PIPE Offering”). Five of the investors that participated in the offering (out of approximately 20 total investors that participated in the offering) asserted claims against the Company in three separate lawsuits alleging certain misrepresentations and omissions in the offering. The Company subsequently reached settlements with all five investors. The Company recorded a charge to operations of $0.5 million as of June 30, 2015, in recognition of the loss contingency for the July 2014 PIPE offering. That charge was equal to the retention under the Company’s 2014-15 Officers and Directors liability insurance policy as the Company expects the insurance policy will cover any future claims in excess of the retention limit.

The Company received a subpoena from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) requesting certain information pertaining to the Company’s July 2014 PIPE Offering. The Company established a special committee of the board of directors to review the facts and circumstances surrounding the July 2014 PIPE Offering and engaged outside counsel to assist it with its review. On May 11, 2016, the Company was advised by the SEC staff that the staff did not intend to recommend any enforcement action against the Company with respect to the investigation commenced by the SEC staff in June 2015.

As reported on Form 8-K filed March 12, 2018, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) contacted the Company to inquire about trading activity in the Company’s Class A common stock in the time period surrounding the Company’s announcement of the Company’s license agreement for the POWERHOUSE solar shingle system on October 4, 2017. In February 2018, FINRA notified the Company that FINRA had concluded its review and referred the matter to the US Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for whatever action, if any, the SEC deems necessary. John Schaeffer, who retired from the Company’s board of directors on March 9, 2018, has informed the Company that he is in contact with the SEC in connection with this matter. The Company has no information about the nature or scope of the SEC’s involvement in this matter. Further, the Company has not received any communication, inquiry or subpoena from the SEC in connection with this matter and has no reason to believe that the Company is implicated in any way in this matter.

The Company has granted registration rights under the following:

Schedule 3.1 (w) Listing and Maintenance Requirements

On August 7, 2018, the Company received a letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”), notifying the Company that for the last 30 consecutive business days, the bid price of the Company’s Class A common stock had closed below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for continued inclusion on Nasdaq based on Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), and describing a timetable for bringing the Company into compliance with that rule.

The Common Stock is currently registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act. On March 12, 2019 the Nasdaq Stock Market filed a Form 25-NSE with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which delisted the Common Stock from Nasdaq on March 22, 2019 and will deregister the Common Stock from Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act on June 10, 2019. The Company plans to file a registration statement on Form 8-A to register the Common Stock pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act before June 10, 2019.

The Company moved trading of the Common Stock to the OTCQX from The Nasdaq Capital Market effective February 15, 2019.

¹ Pro rata portion of 30% among investors executing Leak-Out Agreements, based on Subscription Amount.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, during the Restricted Period, the Holder may, directly or indirectly, sell or transfer all, or any part, of the Shares or the Warrant Shares underlying the Holder Warrants (the “ Restricted Securities ”) to any Person (an “ Assignee ”) in a transaction which does not need to be reported on the OTCQB consolidated tape (or equivalent thereof), without complying with (or otherwise limited by) the restrictions set forth in this Leak-Out Agreement; provided, that as a condition to any such sale or transfer an authorized signatory of the Company and such Assignee duly execute and deliver a leak-out agreement in the form of this Leak-Out Agreement (an “ Assignee Agreement ”, and each such transfer a “ Permitted Transfer ”) and, subsequent to a Permitted Transfer, sales of the Holder and the Holder’s Trading Affiliates and all Assignees (other than any such sales that constitute Permitted Transfers) shall be aggregated for all purposes of this Leak-Out Agreement and all Assignee Agreements.

Nothing contained herein or in this Leak-Out Agreement, and no action taken by the Holder pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Holder and Other Holders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Holder and the Other Holders are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Leak-Out Agreement and the Company acknowledges that the Holder and the Other Holders are not acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Leak-Out Agreement or any other agreement. The Company and the Holder confirms that the Holder has independently participated in the negotiation of the transactions contemplated hereby with the advice of its own counsel and advisors.

If, and whenever on or after the date hereof, the Company enters into a Settlement Document, then (i) the Company shall provide notice thereof to the Holder promptly following the occurrence thereof and (ii) the terms and conditions of this Leak-Out Agreement shall be, without any further action by the Holder or the Company, automatically amended and modified in an economically and legally equivalent manner such that the Holder shall receive the benefit of the more favorable terms and/or conditions (as the case may be) set forth in such Settlement Document, provided that upon written notice to the Company at any time the Holder may elect not to accept the benefit of any such amended or modified term or condition, in which event the term or condition contained in this Agreement shall apply to the Holder as it was in effect immediately prior to such amendment or modification as if such amendment or modification never occurred with respect to the Holder. The provisions of this paragraph shall apply similarly and equally to each Settlement Document.
