Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On October 17, 2022, Sysorex, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Placement Agency Agreement (the “Placement Agency Agreement”), dated October 17, 2022, by and between the Company and Joseph Gunnar & Co., LLC (the “Placement Agent”). Pursuant to the terms of the Placement Agency Agreement, the Company engaged the Placement Agent to act as the Company’s exclusive placement agent with respect to effectuating a private placement (the “Offering”) to accredited investors, pursuant to which the Company offered up to $500,000 of its common stock and a warrant to purchase common stock (collectively, the “Securities”). Placement of the Securities was made on a “commercially reasonable efforts” basis.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Placement Agency Agreement, the Company agreed to pay to the Placement Agent a cash fee (the “Cash Fee”) equal to 12.5% of the aggregate gross proceeds of the Offering. In addition, the Company agreed to reimburse the Placement Agent for all reasonable, documented marketing, travel and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the Offering and to pay the Placement Agent’s counsel fees in the amount of $40,000 (“Legal Fees”); provided, however, that any fees or expenses incurred in connection with the Offering for which the Company will be responsible for reimbursement, including Legal Fees, will not exceed $50,000 collectively. The Company also agreed to pay to the Placement Agent the Cash Fee to the extent any party first introduced to the Company by the Placement Agent at any time prior to the date that is 12 months after the applicable termination date of the Offering or the final closing, whichever is applicable, makes any investment into the Company through the acquisition of Company securities from the Company.

 

For a period of 12 months following October 18, 2022 and subject to a closing of the Offering having been effected, in the event that the Company desires to raise additional capital in the form of debt, equity or otherwise (a “Prospective Financing”), the Placement Agent will have the right of first refusal to act as Placement Agent with respect to any such Prospective Financing.

 

On October 18, 2022, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”), dated as of October 18, 2022, by and among the Company and each of the each of the investors signatories thereto (each an “Investor” and collectively, the “Investors”). Pursuant to the terms of the SPA, the Company agreed to sell to each Investor a number of Units of securities of the Company (each, a “Unit”), at a purchase price of $0.001 per Unit, with each Unit being comprised of: (i) one share of common stock (each, a “Purchased Share” and collectively, the “Purchased Shares”); (ii) a warrant to acquire one share of common stock at an exercise price of $0.001 per share, which exercise price will not be subject to adjustment as a result of any forward or reverse split of the common stock (each, a “Warrant 1”); and (iii) a warrant to acquire one share of common stock at an exercise price of $0.001 per share, which exercise price will not be subject to adjustment as a result of any forward or reverse split of the common stock (each, a “Warrant 2”). The Investors, collectively, subscribed for a total of 500,000,000 Units, consisting of 500,000,000 shares of common stock, Warrant 1s to acquire 500,000,000 shares of common stock, and Warrant 2s to acquire 500,000,000 shares of common stock, for total consideration payable to the Company of $500,000.

 

The Company will use the net proceeds from the sale of the Units for working capital purposes and will not use such proceeds (a) for the redemption of any common stock or preferred stock or convertible debt which is convertible into common stock (provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Company may use such net proceeds for the repayment of any convertible debt in accordance with the terms thereof); (b) for the settlement of any outstanding litigation; (c) in violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act or Office of Foreign Assets Control regulations; or (d) to lend, give credit or make advances to any officers, directors, employees or affiliates (provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Company may use such net proceeds for the payment of costs, fees, salaries and benefits in the ordinary course of business with respect to such officers, directors, employees or affiliates).

 

The SPA contains customary representations, warranties and closing conditions.

 

The transactions contemplated by the SPA closed on October 18, 2022. Accordingly, on October 18, 2022, the Company sold to the Investors an aggregate of 500,000,000 Units, consisting of 500,000,000 shares of common stock, Warrant 1s to acquire 500,000,000 shares of common stock, and Warrant 2s to acquire 500,000,000 shares of common stock, for total consideration paid to the Company of $500,000.

On October 18, 2022, pursuant to the terms of the SPA, the Company and the Investors entered into the Initial Registration Rights Agreement (the “Initial Registration Rights Agreement”), which provides for the registration of all of the Purchased Shares and all of the shares of common stock that may be acquired by the Investors pursuant to the Warrant 1s. Pursuant to the terms of the Initial Registration Rights Agreement, the Company agreed to, within 30 calendar days of October 18, 2022, use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a registration statement or registration statements (as is necessary) on Form S-1 (or, if such form is unavailable for such a registration, on such other form as is available for such registration) covering the resale of all of the Registrable Securities, or amend its current registration statement to cover the Registrable Securities. Pursuant to the terms of the SPA, the Company agreed to use all commercially reasonable efforts to have the registration statement declared effective by the SEC within 90 days of October 18, 2022 (the “Registration Deadline”). If such registration statement has not become effective by the Registration Deadline, and provided that the Registrable Securities cannot otherwise be sold pursuant to Rule 144 pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of the Registration Deadline, then, subject to the provisions of the SPA and the Initial Registration Rights Agreement, the Company agreed to issue to each Investor:

 

(i)a number of additional shares of common stock equal to 10% of the Purchased Shares acquired by such Investor on the closing date, with such number of Purchased Shares being adjusted for any forward or reverse splits of the common stock between the closing date and the date of such issuance (the “Additional Shares”); and

 

(ii)a new warrant (each, a “Warrant 3”) equal to the number of Additional Shares in the applicable issuance.

 

The Additional Shares and the Warrant 3 will, if applicable, be issuable to the Investors for each 30-day period, or portion thereof, that the registration statement registering the Registrable Securities has not become effective by the Registration Deadline. The Company’s obligation to issue the Additional Shares and the Warrant 3, if applicable, will not arise until the Company has amended its articles of incorporation, via a reverse split of the common stock, an increase of the number of authorized shares of common stock, or some combination thereof, such that the Company has a number of authorized but unissued shares of equal to (1) the number of Additional Shares that are otherwise to be issued plus (2) the number of shares of common stock that may be issuable pursuant to the Warrant 3.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the SPA, the Company also entered into a Piggyback Registration Rights Agreement (the “Piggyback Registration Rights Agreement”), dated as of October 18, 2022, by and among the Company and the Investors. The Piggyback Registration Rights Agreement provides piggyback registration rights for the shares of common stock that may be acquired by the Investors pursuant to the Warrant 2s. In the event that the Warrant 3s are issued pursuant to the provisions of the SPA, then at the time of such issuances, the Company and the Investors agreed to amend the Piggyback Registration Rights Agreement such that the Piggyback Registration Rights Agreement will also apply with respect to the shares of common stock that may be acquired by the Investors pursuant to the Warrant 3s.

 

The foregoing summary of the material terms of the Placement Agency Agreement, the SPA, Warrant 1, Warrant 2, Warrant 3, the Initial Registration Rights Agreement, and the Piggyback Registration Rights Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Placement Agency Agreement, the SPA, Form of Warrant 1, Form of Warrant 2, Form of Warrant 3, the Initial Registration Rights Agreement, and the Piggyback Registration Rights Agreement, copies of which are filed herewith as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4, 10.5, 10.6 and 10.7, respectively, and incorporated by reference herein.

 

Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities. 

 

The information set forth in Item 1.01 above with regard to the issuance of equity securities is incorporated herein by reference.

 

The Company claims an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), for the private placement of these securities pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder because, among other things, the transaction did not involve a public offering, the recipients are accredited investors, the recipients acquired the securities for investment and not resale, and the Company took appropriate measures to restrict the transfer of the securities.

Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

 

On October 19, 2022, the Company issued a press release announcing the closing of the Offering. A copy of the foregoing press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.

 

The information included in this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing. The information set forth under this Item 7.01 shall not be deemed an admission as to the materiality of any information in this Current Report on Form 8-K that is required to be disclosed solely to satisfy the requirements of Regulation FD.

 

Item 8.01. Other Events.

 

As of October 18, 2022, following closing of the Offering, there are 1,976,726,501 shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding. The Company is unable to honor any additional debenture notices of conversion, as the Company has insufficient available authorized but unissued and unreserved shares to process additional conversions at this time.

Attn: Wayne Wasserberg, Chief Executive Officer

 

Mr. Wasserberg:

 

This will confirm our agreement that Sysorex, Inc. (the “Company”) has engaged Joseph Gunnar & Co., LLC (“Placement Agent”) to act as the Company’s exclusive Placement Agent with respect effectuating the Offering. For purposes of this agreement, the term “Offering” means a private placement pursuant to which the Company will be offering up to $500,000 of its common stock, par value per $0.00001 (the “Common Stock”) and a warrant to purchase Common Stock (the “Warrant” and together with the Common Stock sold in the Offering, the “Securities”). Placement of the Securities will be made on a “commercially reasonable efforts” basis. All capitalized terms used herein that are not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Purchase Agreement (as defined below).

 

The Placement Agent shall offer the Securities only to persons or entities who qualify as “accredited investors,” as such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D (“Regulation D”) as promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”). The Securities will be offered until the earlier of (i) the termination of the Offering as provided herein, (ii) the time that all Securities offered in the Offering are sold, or (iii) October 31, 2022 (“Initial Offering Period”), which date may be extended by the Placement Agent and the Company in their joint discretion until November 30, 2022 (this additional period and the Initial Offering Period shall be referred to as the “Offering Period”). The date on which the Offering expires or is terminated shall be referred to as the “Termination Date.”

 

The offering of the Securities will be made solely pursuant to the Disclosure Materials, which at all times will be in form and substance acceptable to the Placement Agent and their counsel and contain such legends and other information as the Placement Agent and their counsel may, from time-to-time, deem necessary and desirable to be set forth therein. “Disclosure Materials” as used in this Agreement means that certain Securities Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the Securities are to be sold, inclusive of all exhibits and all amendments, supplements and appendices thereto (the “Purchase Agreement”). Unless otherwise defined, each term used in this Agreement will have the same meaning as set forth in the Disclosure Materials.

With respect to actions taken by the Company, the Securities will be offered and sold pursuant to the registration exemption provided by Regulation D and Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act as a transaction not involving a public offering and the requirements of any other applicable state securities laws and the respective rules and regulations thereunder in those jurisdictions in which the Placement Agent notify the Company that the Securities are being offered for sale. The Company has not taken nor will it take any action which conflicts with the conditions and requirements of, or which would make unavailable with respect to the Offering, the exemptions from registration available pursuant to Regulation D or Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, and knows of no reason why any such exemption would be otherwise unavailable to it.

(b) If, at any time prior to the Final Closing, any event shall occur, which as a result it becomes necessary to amend or supplement the Disclosure Materials so that the representations and warranties herein remain true and correct in all material respects, or in case it shall be necessary to amend or supplement the Disclosure Materials to comply with Regulation D or any other applicable securities laws or regulations, the Company will promptly notify the Placement Agent and shall, at its sole cost, prepare and furnish to the Placement Agent copies of appropriate amendments and/or supplements in such quantities as the Placement Agent may reasonably request for delivery by the Placement Agent to potential subscribers.

(j) All proceedings taken at or prior to any Closing in connection with the authorization, issuance and sale of the Securities will be fully satisfactory in form and substance to the Placement Agent and its counsel, and such counsel shall have been furnished with all such documents, certificates and opinions as it may request upon prior notice in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

7. Right of First Refusal. For a period of twelve (12) months following the expiration of the Offering Period and subject to a closing of the Offering having been effected, in the event that the Company desires to raise additional capital in the form of debt, equity or otherwise (a “Prospective Financing”), the Placement Agent shall have the right of first refusal to act as Placement Agent with respect to any such Prospective Financing, and the Company shall provide written notice containing the terms of such Prospective Financing (the “ROFR Notice”) to the Placement Agent prior to effectuating any such transaction. The ROFR Notice shall specify all of the key terms of the Prospective Financing, including, but not limited to, the proposed investment amount, the proposed rate of interest, the proposed conversion price, the proposed term of the investment, the type and number of securities to be sold and any and all other relevant terms, each as applicable. Upon Placement Agent’s receipt of the ROFR Notice, Placement Agent shall have the exclusive right to act as Placement Agent in such Prospective Financing(s), upon the terms specified in the ROFR Notice, by sending written notice to the Company within seven (7) business days after Placement Agent’s receipt of the ROFR Notice. In the event Placement Agent fails to exercise its right of first refusal with respect to an ROFR Notice within the time set forth above, Placement Agent shall be deemed to have waived its right of first refusal with respect to such Prospective Financing, provided that it shall retain such right with respect to any future Prospective Financing. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, the Company shall not furnish any material non-public information concerning the Company without the Placement Agent’s prior written consent, and shall initially only indicate to the Placement Agent that the Company contemplates a financing.

 

8. Indemnification.

 

(a) The Company will: (i) indemnify and hold harmless the Placement Agent, its agents and its officers, directors, employees, selected dealers and each person, if any, who controls the Placement Agent within the meaning of the Section 15 of the Act or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act and such selected dealers (each an “Indemnitee” or a “Placement Agent Party”) against, and pay or reimburse each Indemnitee for, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses whatsoever (or actions or proceedings or investigations in respect thereof), joint or several (which will, for all purposes of this Agreement, include, but not be limited to, all reasonable costs of defense and investigation and all reasonable attorneys’ fees, including appeals), to which any Indemnitee may become subject (x) under the Act or otherwise, in connection with the offer and sale of the Securities and (y) as a result of the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant made by the Company, regardless of whether such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses shall result from any claim by any Indemnitee or by any third party; and (ii) reimburse each Indemnitee for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending against any such loss, claim, action, proceeding or investigation; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such claim, damage or liability is finally judicially determined to have resulted primarily from (A) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact made in the Disclosure Materials, or an omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, made solely in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Placement Agent specifically for use in the Disclosure Materials, (B) any violations by the Placement Agent of the Act, state securities laws or any rules or regulations of FINRA, which is not directly caused from a violation thereof by the Company or any of its affiliates or (C) the Placement Agent’s willful misconduct or recklessness. In addition to the foregoing agreement to indemnify and reimburse, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses whatsoever (or actions or proceedings or investigations in respect thereof), joint or several (which shall, for all purposes of this Agreement, include, but not be limited to, all reasonable costs of defense and investigation and all reasonable attorneys' fees, including appeals) to which any Indemnitee may become subject insofar as such costs, expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise out of or are based upon the claim of any person or entity that he or it is entitled to broker’s or finder’s fees from any Indemnitee in connection with the Offering, other than fees due to the Placement Agent. The foregoing indemnity agreements will be in addition to any liability the Company may otherwise have.

 

(b) The Placement Agent will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its officers, directors, and each person, if any, who controls such entity within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act against, and pay or reimburse any such person for, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses whatsoever (or actions, proceedings or investigations in respect thereof) to which the Company or any such person may become subject under the Act or otherwise, whether such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses shall result from any claim of the Company or any such person who controls the Company within the meaning of the Act or by any third party, but only to the extent that such losses, claims, damages or liabilities results from (i) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact made in the Disclosure Materials, or an omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Placement Agent, specifically for use in the Disclosure Materials, (ii) as a result of the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant made by the Placement Agent, regardless of whether such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses shall result from any claim by any third party, or (iii) any violations by the Placement Agent of the Act or state securities laws which does not result from a violation thereof by the Company or any of its affiliates. The Placement Agent will reimburse the Company or any such person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, proceeding or investigation to which such indemnity obligation applies. The foregoing indemnity agreements are in addition to any liability which the Placement Agent may otherwise have. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Placement Agent’s indemnification obligation hereunder exceeds the amount of Cash Fees actually received by the Placement Agent hereunder.

 

Page 7 of 12

 

 

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action, claim, proceeding or investigation (the “Action”), such indemnified party, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 8, will notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability that it may have to any indemnified party under this Section 8 unless the indemnifying party has been substantially prejudiced by such omission. The indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof subject to the provisions herein stated, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party. The indemnified party will have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Action and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel will not be at the expense of the indemnifying party if the indemnifying party has assumed the defense of the Action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, provided, however, that if counsel selected to represent the indemnified party shall have concluded that there may be a conflict of interest which prevents it from representing the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, then the indemnified party may retain additional counsel to represent it and in such case the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel in connection with any such participation or defenses shall be paid by the indemnifying party. No settlement of any Action against an indemnified party will be made without the consent of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned in light of all factors of importance to such party, and no indemnifying party shall be liable to indemnify any person for any settlement of any such claim effected without such indemnifying party’s consent.

 

9. Contribution. To provide for just and equitable contribution, if: (i) an indemnified party makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 8 hereof and it is finally determined, by a judgment, order or decree not subject to further appeal that such claims for indemnification may not be enforced, even though this Agreement expressly provides for indemnification in such case; or (ii) any indemnified or indemnifying party seeks contribution under the Act, the Exchange Act, or otherwise, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Placement Agent on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Placement Agent on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the Offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total Placement Agent’s Cash Fees received by the Placement Agent. The relative fault, in the case of an untrue statement, alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission will be determined by, among other things, whether such statement, alleged statement, omission or alleged omission relates to information supplied by the Company or by the Placement Agent, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement, alleged statement, omission or alleged omission. The Company and the Placement Agent agree that it would be unjust and inequitable if the respective obligations of the Company and the Placement Agent for contribution were determined by pro rata allocation of the aggregate losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses or by any other method or allocation that does not reflect the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 9. No person guilty of a fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 10(f) of the Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person who is not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 9, each person, if any, who controls the Placement Agent within the meaning of the Act will have the same rights to contribution as the Placement Agent, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Act will have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the provisions of this Section 9. Anything in this Section 9 to the contrary notwithstanding, no party will be liable for contribution with respect to the settlement of any claim or action effected without its written consent. This Section 9 is intended to supersede, to the extent permitted by law, any right to contribution under the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise available.

COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT - Form 1
Sysorex, Inc.

 

Warrant Shares: _______________, subject to adjustment as set forth herein. Issue Date: October 18, 2022

 

Holder name: _________________________

 

THIS COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT – FORM 1 (the “Warrant”) certifies that, for value received, the holder named above or its permitted assigns (the “Holder”) is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after the Issue Date as set forth above (the “Issue Date”) and on or prior to 5:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the fifth annual anniversary of the Issue Date (the “Termination Date”) but not thereafter, to subscribe for and purchase from Sysorex, Inc., a company organized in the State of Nevada (the “Company”), up to the number of shares set forth above (as subject to adjustment hereunder, the “Warrant Shares”) of common stock, par value $0.00001 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”). The purchase price of one share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be equal to the Exercise Price, as defined in Section 2(b).

 

This Warrant is entered into pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement entered into by the Company, the Holder and certain other parties on the Issue Date, and is subject to the terms and conditions thereof (the “Agreement”).

 

Section 1. Definitions. Defined terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings given in the Agreement. In addition to such terms and the terms defined elsewhere in this Warrant, the following terms have the following meanings:

 

(a) “Party” means the Company or the Holder, and “Parties” means the Company and the Holder.

 

(b) “Trading Market” means the OTC Markets or a United States national securities exchange which is the primary trading market for the Common Stock.

 

(c) “Trading Day” means any day on which the Common Stock is traded or available for trading on the Trading Market.

 

(d) “Transfer Agent” means the Company’s transfer agent for the Common Stock as in place at the applicable time.

 

 

 

 

Section 2. Exercise.

 

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

 

(b) Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be $0.001 (as the same may be adjusted as set forth herein, the “Exercise Price”). The Exercise Price shall not be subject to any adjustment as a result of any forward or reverse split of the Common Stock.

 

(c) Cashless Exercise.

 

(i)In the event that as of the date of the delivery of a Notice of Exercise there is no effective registration statement registering the Warrant Shares, or no current prospectus available for the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder, this Warrant (to the extent set forth in such Notice of Exercise) may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares computed using the following formula:

 

X = Y (A-B)

 

A

 

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

 

Y =the number of Warrant Shares that the Holder elects to purchase under this Warrant (at the date of such calculation).

 

A = the VWAP (as defined below) at the date of such calculation.

 

B = Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation).

 

(ii)If Warrant Shares are issued in such a cashless exercise, the parties acknowledge and agree that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, the Warrant Shares shall take on the characteristics of the Warrants being exercised, and the holding period of the Warrant Shares being issued may be tacked on to the holding period of this Warrant. The Company agrees not to take any position contrary to this Section 2(c).

 

2

 

 

(iii)For purposes herein, “VWAP” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (1) If the Common Stock is then listed for trading on the OTC Markets or a United States national securities exchange (as applicable, the “Trading Market”), then the volume-weighted average (rounded to the nearest $0.0001) of the closing prices of Common Stock on such Trading Market during the 10 Trading Day (as defined below) period immediately prior to the applicable measurement date, as reported by such Trading Market or other reputable source; (2) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading on a Trading Market, and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported in the “Pink Sheets” published by OTC Markets Group, Inc. (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per share of the Common Stock so reported; and (3) if the closing price of Common Stock or the most recent bid price per share of the Company Common Stock cannot be calculated for such security on such date on bases as set forth in clause (1) or clause (2) above, the VWAP on such date shall be the fair market value of the Common Stock as mutually determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company and the Holder after taking into consideration factors they may each deem appropriate. All such determinations of the VWAP as set forth in clause (1) or clause (2) above shall be appropriately adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, recapitalization or other similar transaction during such measurement period. “Trading Day” means any day on which the Common Stock is traded or available for trading on the Trading Market.

 

(d) Mechanics of Exercise.

 

(i)Delivery of Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. The Company shall cause the Warrant Shares purchased hereunder to be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder or (B) the Warrant Shares are eligible for resale by the Holder without volume or manner-of-sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144, and otherwise in book-entry format by recording the Holder as the beneficial owner of the Warrant Shares in the books and records of the Transfer Agent. The Warrant Shares shall not be certificated. The Warrant Shares shall be issued by the date that is the earliest of (i) two (2) Trading Days after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise, (ii) one (1) Trading Day after delivery of the aggregate Exercise Price to the Company and (iii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period, if applicable, after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”). Upon delivery of the Notice of Exercise, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the Warrant Shares, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received within the earlier of (i) two (2) Business Days and (ii) the number of Business Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period following delivery of the Notice of Exercise. As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means, if applicable, the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Business Days, on the OTC Markets or a United States national securities exchange which is the primary trading market for the Common Stock as in effect on the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise. In no event shall the Company be required to net cash settle an exercise of this Warrant.

 

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

 

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

 

3

 

 

(iv)Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense of the Company in respect of the issuance of such Warrant Shares, all of which taxes and Company expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such Warrant Shares shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; provided, however, that, in the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Exercise and all fees to the Depository Trust Company (or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions) required for same-day electronic delivery of the Warrant Shares.

 

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

 

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

Section 3. Certain Adjustments.

 

(a) Stock Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, or (ii) combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then in each case the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, without any adjustment of the Exercise Price. By way of example and not limitation, in the event of a forward split of the Common Stock following the Issue Date in which each share of Common Stock is converted into two shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be increased by 100%, and in the event of a reverse split of the Common Stock following the Issue Date in which each two shares of Common Stock are converted into one share of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be reduced by 50%, in each case without adjustment to the Exercise Price. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

 

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

 

5

 

 

(c) Dilutive Issuances. If the Company, at any time prior to the full exercise of this Warrant, issues, sells or grants any option to purchase, or sells or grants any right to reprice, or otherwise disposes of, or issues (or has sold or issued, as the case may be, or announces any sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition), any Common Stock or other securities convertible into, exercisable for, or otherwise entitle any person or entity the right to acquire, shares of Common Stock, in each or any case at an effective price per share of less than $0.001 per share of Common Stock (such lower price, the “Base Exercise Price” and such issuances, collectively, a “Dilutive Issuance”) (it being agreed that if the holder of the Common Stock or other securities 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 lower than $0.001 per share of Common Stock, such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than $0.001 per share of Common Stock on such date of the Dilutive Issuance), then the Exercise Price shall be reduced, at the option of the Holder, to a price equal to the Base Exercise Price. Such adjustment shall be made whenever such Common Stock or other securities are issued. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment will be made under this Section 3(c) in respect of an Exempt Issuance (as defined below). In the event of an issuance of securities involving multiple tranches or closings, any adjustment pursuant to this Section 3(c) shall be calculated as if all such securities were issued at the initial closing. An “Exempt Issuance” shall mean the issuance of (a) shares of Common Stock or other securities to officers or directors of the Company pursuant to any stock or option or similar equity incentive 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 in a manner which is consistent with the Company’s prior business practices; (b) securities issued pursuant to a merger, consolidation, acquisition or similar business combination approved by a majority of the disinterested directors of the Company, provided that any such issuance shall only be to a Person (or to the equity holders of a Person) which is, itself or through its subsidiaries, an operating company or an owner of an asset in a business synergistic with the business of the Company and 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 or to an entity whose primary business is investing in securities; (c) securities issued pursuant to any equipment loan or leasing arrangement, real property leasing arrangement or debt financing from a bank or similar financial institution approved by a majority of the disinterested directors of the Company; or (d) securities issued with respect to which the Holder waives its rights in writing under this Section 3(c).

 

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

 

6

 

 

(e) Notice to Holder. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 3, the Company shall promptly deliver to the Holder by email a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

 

(f) Voluntary Adjustment By Company. Subject to the rules and regulations of the Trading Market, the Company may at any time during the term of this Warrant, subject to the prior written consent of the Holder, 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.

 

Section 4. Transfer of Warrant.

 

(a) Transferability. Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws and the conditions set forth in Section 4(d), this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company or its designated agent, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney, together with proper evidence of succession, assignment, or authority to transfer as reasonably acceptable to the Company, and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable, and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company unless the Holder has assigned this Warrant in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company as of the date of the assignment of this Warrant.

 

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

 

7

 

 

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

 

(d) Transfer Restrictions.

 

(i)The Holder, as of the Issue Date as set forth above, represents to the Company that such Holder is acquiring this Warrant for its own account for investment purposes and not with a view to the distribution thereof or of the Warrant Shares. Notwithstanding any provisions contained in this Warrant to the contrary, this Warrant and the related Warrant Shares shall not be transferable except pursuant to the proviso contained in the following sentence or upon the conditions specified in this Section 4(d), which conditions are intended, among other things, to insure compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and applicable state law in respect of the transfer of this Warrant or such Warrant Shares. The Holder by acceptance of this Warrant agrees that the Holder will not transfer this Warrant or the related Warrant Shares prior to delivery to the Company of an opinion of the Holder’s counsel (as such opinion and such counsel are described in Section 4(d)(ii)) or until registration of such Warrant Shares under the Securities Act has become effective.

 

(ii)The Holder, by its acceptance hereof, agrees that prior to any transfer of this Warrant or of the related Warrant Shares (other than pursuant to a registration under the Securities Act), the Holder will give written notice to the Company of its intention to effect such transfer, together with an opinion of such counsel for the Holder as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company, to the effect that the proposed transfer of this Warrant and/or such Warrant Shares may be effected without registration under the Securities Act. Upon delivery of such notice and opinion to the Company, the Holder shall be entitled to transfer this Warrant and/or such Warrant Shares in accordance with the intended method of disposition specified in the notice to the Company.

 

8

 

 

(iii)Each stock certificate representing Warrant Shares issued upon exercise or exchange of this Warrant shall bear the following legend unless the opinion of counsel referred to in this Section 4(d) states such legend is not required:

 

“THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THIS SECURITY MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT WITH A REGISTERED BROKER-DEALER OR OTHER LOAN WITH A FINANCIAL INSTITUTION THAT IS AN “ACCREDITED INVESTOR” AS DEFINED IN RULE 501(a) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR OTHER LOAN SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES.”

 

Section 5. Miscellaneous.

 

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

 

(b) No Rights as Stockholder Until Exercise; No Settlement in Cash. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 2(d)(i), except as expressly set forth in Section 3. Without limiting any rights of a Holder to receive Warrant Shares on a “cashless exercise” pursuant to Section 2(c) (if available), in no event shall the Company be required to net cash settle an exercise of this Warrant.

 

9

 

 

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

 

(d) 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.

 

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

 

(f) Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company. IN NO EVENT WILL ANY PARTY BE LIABLE TO ANY OTHER PARTY UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS WARRANT OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN FOR SPECIAL, GENERAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS OR LOST OPPORTUNITY, EVEN IF THE PARTY SOUGHT TO BE HELD LIABLE HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE.

 

(g) Currency. All dollar amounts are in U.S. dollars.

 

(h) Notices. Any notices hereunder shall be given in accordance with the terms of the Agreement.

 

(i) Attorneys’ Fees. In the event that any Party institutes any action or suit to enforce this Warrant or to secure relief from any default hereunder or breach hereof, the prevailing Party shall be reimbursed by the losing Party for all costs, including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred in connection therewith and in enforcing or collecting any judgment rendered therein.

 

10

 

 

(j) Amendments; No Waivers; No Third-Party Beneficiaries.

 

(i)This Warrant may be amended, modified, superseded, terminated or cancelled, and any of the terms, covenants, representations, warranties or conditions hereof may be waived, only by a written instrument executed by all of the Parties.

 

(ii)Every right and remedy provided herein shall be cumulative with every other right and remedy, whether conferred herein, at law, or in equity, and may be enforced concurrently herewith, and no waiver by any Party of the performance of any obligation by another Party shall be construed as a waiver of the same or any other default then, theretofore, or thereafter occurring or existing.

 

(iii)Neither any failure or delay in exercising any right or remedy hereunder or in requiring satisfaction of any condition herein nor any course of dealing shall constitute a waiver of or prevent any Party from enforcing any right or remedy or from requiring satisfaction of any condition. No notice to or demand on a Party waives or otherwise affects any obligation of that Party or impairs any right of the Party giving such notice or making such demand, including any right to take any action without notice or demand not otherwise required by this Warrant. No exercise of any right or remedy with respect to a breach of this Warrant shall preclude exercise of any other right or remedy, as appropriate to make the aggrieved Party whole with respect to such breach, or subsequent exercise of any right or remedy with respect to any other breach.

 

(iv)This Warrant is strictly between the Parties and no other person or entity, employee, agent, independent contractor of either Party shall be deemed to be a third-party beneficiary of this Warrant.

 

(k) Expenses. Unless otherwise contemplated or stipulated by this Warrant, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Warrant shall be paid by the Party incurring such cost or expense.

 

11

 

 

(l) Successors and Assigns; Benefit. This Warrant shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No Party shall have any power or any right to assign or transfer, in whole or in part, this Warrant, or any of its rights or any of its obligations hereunder, including, without limitation, any right to pursue any claim for damages pursuant to this Warrant or the transactions contemplated herein, or to pursue any claim for any breach or default of this Warrant, or any right arising from the purported assignor’s due performance of its obligations hereunder, without the prior written consent of the other Party and any such purported assignment in contravention of the provisions herein shall be null and void and of no force or effect.

 

(m) Governing Law; Etc. 

 

(i)This Warrant, and all matters based upon, arising out of or relating in any way to this warrant or the transactions contemplated herein (the “Transactions”) including all disputes, claims or causes of action arising out of or relating to the Transactions or this Warrant as well as the interpretation, construction, performance and enforcement of this Warrant, shall be governed by the laws of the United States and the State of Nevada, without regard to any jurisdiction’s conflict-of-laws principles.

THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR ANY PROCEEDING IN SUCH COURTS AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE AND AGREE NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY SUCH COURT THAT ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.

 

(iii)EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN, THE PERFORMANCE THEREOF OR THE FINANCINGS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS Section 5(m)(iii).

 

12

 

 

(iv)Each of the Parties acknowledge that each has been represented in connection with the signing of this waiver by independent legal counsel selected by the respective Party and that such Party has discussed the legal consequences and import of this waiver with legal counsel. Each of the Parties further acknowledge that each has read and understands the meaning of this waiver and grants this waiver knowingly, voluntarily, without duress and only after consideration of the consequences of this waiver with legal counsel.

 

(n) Severability. If any provision of this Warrant is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Warrant shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the Transactions is not affected in any manner adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Warrant so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the Transactions are fulfilled to the extent possible.

 

(o) Entire Agreement. This Warrant, the Agreement and the other Transaction Documents constitute the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both oral and written, between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and provided that the Parties acknowledge and agree that this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents shall be interpreted, enforced and implemented separately expect to the extent they specifically relate to each other.

This Warrant has been negotiated at arm’s-length by parties of equal bargaining strength, each represented by counsel or having had but declined the opportunity to be represented by counsel and having participated in the drafting of this Warrant. This Warrant creates no fiduciary or other special relationship between the Parties, and no such relationship otherwise exists. No presumption in favor of or against any Party in the construction or interpretation of this Warrant or any provision hereof shall be made based upon which Person might have drafted this Warrant or such provision.

 

(q) Specific Performance. Each Party agrees that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Warrant were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that each Party shall be entitled to seek specific performance of the terms hereof in addition to any other remedy at law or in equity.

 

(r) Construction. The headings contained in this Warrant are for reference purposes only and will not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Warrant.

COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT - Form 2
Sysorex, Inc.

 

Warrant Shares: _______________, subject to adjustment as set forth herein. Issue Date: October 18, 2022

 

Holder name: _________________________

 

THIS COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT – FORM 2 (the “Warrant”) certifies that, for value received, the holder named above or its permitted assigns (the “Holder”) is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after date the Trigger Date (as defined in the Agreement, as defined below), and on or prior to 5:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the thirty-nine month anniversary of the Trigger Date (the “Termination Date”) but not thereafter, to subscribe for and purchase from Sysorex, Inc., a company organized in the State of Nevada (the “Company”), up to the number of shares set forth above (as subject to adjustment hereunder, the “Warrant Shares”) of common stock, par value $0.00001 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”). The purchase price of one share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be equal to the Exercise Price, as defined in Section 2(b).

 

This Warrant is entered into pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement entered into by the Company, the Holder and certain other parties on the Issue Date as set forth above (the “Issue Date”), and is subject to the terms and conditions thereof (the “Agreement”).

 

Section 1. Definitions. Defined terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings given in the Agreement. In addition to such terms and the terms defined elsewhere in this Warrant, the following terms have the following meanings:

 

(a) “Party” means the Company or the Holder, and “Parties” means the Company and the Holder.

 

(b) “Trading Market” means the OTC Markets or a United States national securities exchange which is the primary trading market for the Common Stock.

 

(c) “Trading Day” means any day on which the Common Stock is traded or available for trading on the Trading Market.

 

(d) “Transfer Agent” means the Company’s transfer agent for the Common Stock as in place at the applicable time.

 

 

 

 

Section 2. Exercise.

 

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

 

(b) Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be $0.001 (as the same may be adjusted as set forth herein, the “Exercise Price”). The Exercise Price shall not be subject to any adjustment as a result of any forward or reverse split of the Common Stock.

 

(c) Cashless Exercise.

 

(i)In the event that as of the date of the delivery of a Notice of Exercise there is no effective registration statement registering the Warrant Shares, or no current prospectus available for the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder, this Warrant (to the extent set forth in such Notice of Exercise) may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares computed using the following formula:

 

X = Y (A-B)

 

A

 

2 

 

 

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

 

Y =   the number of Warrant Shares that the Holder elects to purchase under this Warrant (at the date of such calculation).

 

A =   the VWAP (as defined below) at the date of such calculation.

 

B =   Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation).

 

(ii)If Warrant Shares are issued in such a cashless exercise, the parties acknowledge and agree that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, the Warrant Shares shall take on the characteristics of the Warrants being exercised, and the holding period of the Warrant Shares being issued may be tacked on to the holding period of this Warrant. The Company agrees not to take any position contrary to this Section 2(c).

 

(iii)For purposes herein, “VWAP” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (1) If the Common Stock is then listed for trading on the OTC Markets or a United States national securities exchange (as applicable, the “Trading Market”), then the volume-weighted average (rounded to the nearest $0.0001) of the closing prices of Common Stock on such Trading Market during the 10 Trading Day (as defined below) period immediately prior to the applicable measurement date, as reported by such Trading Market or other reputable source; (2) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading on a Trading Market, and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported in the “Pink Sheets” published by OTC Markets Group, Inc. (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per share of the Common Stock so reported; and (3) if the closing price of Common Stock or the most recent bid price per share of the Company Common Stock cannot be calculated for such security on such date on bases as set forth in clause (1) or clause (2) above, the VWAP on such date shall be the fair market value of the Common Stock as mutually determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company and the Holder after taking into consideration factors they may each deem appropriate. All such determinations of the VWAP as set forth in clause (1) or clause (2) above shall be appropriately adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, recapitalization or other similar transaction during such measurement period. “Trading Day” means any day on which the Common Stock is traded or available for trading on the Trading Market.

(d) Mechanics of Exercise.

 

(i)Delivery of Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. The Company shall cause the Warrant Shares purchased hereunder to be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder or (B) the Warrant Shares are eligible for resale by the Holder without volume or manner-of-sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144, and otherwise in book-entry format by recording the Holder as the beneficial owner of the Warrant Shares in the books and records of the Transfer Agent. The Warrant Shares shall not be certificated. The Warrant Shares shall be issued by the date that is the earliest of (i) two (2) Trading Days after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise, (ii) one (1) Trading Day after delivery of the aggregate Exercise Price to the Company and (iii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period, if applicable, after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”). Upon delivery of the Notice of Exercise, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the Warrant Shares, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received within the earlier of (i) two (2) Business Days and (ii) the number of Business Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period following delivery of the Notice of Exercise. As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means, if applicable, the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Business Days, on the OTC Markets or a United States national securities exchange which is the primary trading market for the Common Stock as in effect on the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise. In no event shall the Company be required to net cash settle an exercise of this Warrant.

 

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

 

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

 

4 

 

 

(iv)Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense of the Company in respect of the issuance of such Warrant Shares, all of which taxes and Company expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such Warrant Shares shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; provided, however, that, in the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Exercise and all fees to the Depository Trust Company (or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions) required for same-day electronic delivery of the Warrant Shares.

 

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

 

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

Section 3. Certain Adjustments.

 

(a) Stock Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, or (ii) combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then in each case the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, without any adjustment of the Exercise Price. By way of example and not limitation, in the event of a forward split of the Common Stock following the Issue Date in which each share of Common Stock is converted into two shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be increased by 100%, and in the event of a reverse split of the Common Stock following the Issue Date in which each two shares of Common Stock are converted into one share of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be reduced by 50%, in each case without adjustment to the Exercise Price. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

 

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

(c) Dilutive Issuances. If the Company, at any time prior to the full exercise of this Warrant, issues, sells or grants any option to purchase, or sells or grants any right to reprice, or otherwise disposes of, or issues (or has sold or issued, as the case may be, or announces any sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition), any Common Stock or other securities convertible into, exercisable for, or otherwise entitle any person or entity the right to acquire, shares of Common Stock, in each or any case at an effective price per share of less than $0.001 per share of Common Stock (such lower price, the “Base Exercise Price” and such issuances, collectively, a “Dilutive Issuance”) (it being agreed that if the holder of the Common Stock or other securities 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 lower than $0.001 per share of Common Stock, such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than $0.001 per share of Common Stock on such date of the Dilutive Issuance), then the Exercise Price shall be reduced, at the option of the Holder, to a price equal to the Base Exercise Price. Such adjustment shall be made whenever such Common Stock or other securities are issued. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment will be made under this Section 3(c) in respect of an Exempt Issuance (as defined below). In the event of an issuance of securities involving multiple tranches or closings, any adjustment pursuant to this Section 3(c) shall be calculated as if all such securities were issued at the initial closing. An “Exempt Issuance” shall mean the issuance of (a) shares of Common Stock or other securities to officers or directors of the Company pursuant to any stock or option or similar equity incentive 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 in a manner which is consistent with the Company’s prior business practices; (b) securities issued pursuant to a merger, consolidation, acquisition or similar business combination approved by a majority of the disinterested directors of the Company, provided that any such issuance shall only be to a Person (or to the equity holders of a Person) which is, itself or through its subsidiaries, an operating company or an owner of an asset in a business synergistic with the business of the Company and 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 or to an entity whose primary business is investing in securities; (c) securities issued pursuant to any equipment loan or leasing arrangement, real property leasing arrangement or debt financing from a bank or similar financial institution approved by a majority of the disinterested directors of the Company; or (d) securities issued with respect to which the Holder waives its rights in writing under this Section 3(c).

 

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

 

(e) Notice to Holder. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 3, the Company shall promptly deliver to the Holder by email a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

 

(f) Voluntary Adjustment By Company. Subject to the rules and regulations of the Trading Market, the Company may at any time during the term of this Warrant, subject to the prior written consent of the Holder, 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.

 

Section 4. Transfer of Warrant.

 

(a) Transferability. Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws and the conditions set forth in Section 4(d), this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company or its designated agent, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney, together with proper evidence of succession, assignment, or authority to transfer as reasonably acceptable to the Company, and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable, and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company unless the Holder has assigned this Warrant in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company as of the date of the assignment of this Warrant.

 

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

 

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

 

7 

 

 

(d) Transfer Restrictions.

 

(i)The Holder, as of the Issue Date as set forth above, represents to the Company that such Holder is acquiring this Warrant for its own account for investment purposes and not with a view to the distribution thereof or of the Warrant Shares. Notwithstanding any provisions contained in this Warrant to the contrary, this Warrant and the related Warrant Shares shall not be transferable except pursuant to the proviso contained in the following sentence or upon the conditions specified in this Section 4(d), which conditions are intended, among other things, to insure compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and applicable state law in respect of the transfer of this Warrant or such Warrant Shares. The Holder by acceptance of this Warrant agrees that the Holder will not transfer this Warrant or the related Warrant Shares prior to delivery to the Company of an opinion of the Holder’s counsel (as such opinion and such counsel are described in Section 4(d)(ii)) or until registration of such Warrant Shares under the Securities Act has become effective.

 

(ii)The Holder, by its acceptance hereof, agrees that prior to any transfer of this Warrant or of the related Warrant Shares (other than pursuant to a registration under the Securities Act), the Holder will give written notice to the Company of its intention to effect such transfer, together with an opinion of such counsel for the Holder as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company, to the effect that the proposed transfer of this Warrant and/or such Warrant Shares may be effected without registration under the Securities Act. Upon delivery of such notice and opinion to the Company, the Holder shall be entitled to transfer this Warrant and/or such Warrant Shares in accordance with the intended method of disposition specified in the notice to the Company.

 

(iii)Each stock certificate representing Warrant Shares issued upon exercise or exchange of this Warrant shall bear the following legend unless the opinion of counsel referred to in this Section 4(d) states such legend is not required:

 

“THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THIS SECURITY MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT WITH A REGISTERED BROKER-DEALER OR OTHER LOAN WITH A FINANCIAL INSTITUTION THAT IS AN “ACCREDITED INVESTOR” AS DEFINED IN RULE 501(a) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR OTHER LOAN SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES.”

Section 5. Miscellaneous.

 

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

 

(b) No Rights as Stockholder Until Exercise; No Settlement in Cash. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 2(d)(i), except as expressly set forth in Section 3. Without limiting any rights of a Holder to receive Warrant Shares on a “cashless exercise” pursuant to Section 2(c) (if available), in no event shall the Company be required to net cash settle an exercise of this Warrant.

 

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

 

(d) 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.

 

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

 

9 

 

 

(f) Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company. IN NO EVENT WILL ANY PARTY BE LIABLE TO ANY OTHER PARTY UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS WARRANT OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN FOR SPECIAL, GENERAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS OR LOST OPPORTUNITY, EVEN IF THE PARTY SOUGHT TO BE HELD LIABLE HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE.

 

(g) Currency. All dollar amounts are in U.S. dollars.

 

(h) Notices. Any notices hereunder shall be given in accordance with the terms of the Agreement.

(j) Amendments; No Waivers; No Third-Party Beneficiaries.

 

(i)This Warrant may be amended, modified, superseded, terminated or cancelled, and any of the terms, covenants, representations, warranties or conditions hereof may be waived, only by a written instrument executed by all of the Parties.

 

(ii)Every right and remedy provided herein shall be cumulative with every other right and remedy, whether conferred herein, at law, or in equity, and may be enforced concurrently herewith, and no waiver by any Party of the performance of any obligation by another Party shall be construed as a waiver of the same or any other default then, theretofore, or thereafter occurring or existing.

 

(iii)Neither any failure or delay in exercising any right or remedy hereunder or in requiring satisfaction of any condition herein nor any course of dealing shall constitute a waiver of or prevent any Party from enforcing any right or remedy or from requiring satisfaction of any condition. No notice to or demand on a Party waives or otherwise affects any obligation of that Party or impairs any right of the Party giving such notice or making such demand, including any right to take any action without notice or demand not otherwise required by this Warrant. No exercise of any right or remedy with respect to a breach of this Warrant shall preclude exercise of any other right or remedy, as appropriate to make the aggrieved Party whole with respect to such breach, or subsequent exercise of any right or remedy with respect to any other breach.

 

10 

 

 

(iv)This Warrant is strictly between the Parties and no other person or entity, employee, agent, independent contractor of either Party shall be deemed to be a third-party beneficiary of this Warrant.

 

(k) Expenses. Unless otherwise contemplated or stipulated by this Warrant, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Warrant shall be paid by the Party incurring such cost or expense.

(m) Governing Law; Etc. 

 

(i)This Warrant, and all matters based upon, arising out of or relating in any way to this warrant or the transactions contemplated herein (the “Transactions”) including all disputes, claims or causes of action arising out of or relating to the Transactions or this Warrant as well as the interpretation, construction, performance and enforcement of this Warrant, shall be governed by the laws of the United States and the State of Nevada, without regard to any jurisdiction’s conflict-of-laws principles.

11

(iv)Each of the Parties acknowledge that each has been represented in connection with the signing of this waiver by independent legal counsel selected by the respective Party and that such Party has discussed the legal consequences and import of this waiver with legal counsel. Each of the Parties further acknowledge that each has read and understands the meaning of this waiver and grants this waiver knowingly, voluntarily, without duress and only after consideration of the consequences of this waiver with legal counsel.

 

(n) Severability.

Upon such determination that any provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Warrant so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the Transactions are fulfilled to the extent possible.

 

(o) Entire Agreement.

COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT - Form 3
Sysorex, Inc.

 

Warrant Shares: _______________, subject to adjustment as set forth herein. Issue Date: [___________]

 

Holder name: _________________________

 

THIS COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT – FORM 3 (the “Warrant”) certifies that, for value received, the holder named above or its permitted assigns (the “Holder”) is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after date the Issue Date as set forth above (the “Issue Date”), and on or prior to 5:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the second annual anniversary of the Issue Date (the “Termination Date”) but not thereafter, to subscribe for and purchase from Sysorex, Inc., a company organized in the State of Nevada (the “Company”), up to the number of shares set forth above (as subject to adjustment hereunder, the “Warrant Shares”) of common stock, par value $0.00001 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”). The purchase price of one share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be equal to the Exercise Price, as defined in Section 2(b).

 

This Warrant is entered into pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement entered into by the Company, the Holder and certain other parties on October 18, 2022, and is subject to the terms and conditions thereof (the “Agreement”).

 

Section 1. Definitions. Defined terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings given in the Agreement. In addition to such terms and the terms defined elsewhere in this Warrant, the following terms have the following meanings:

 

(a) “Party” means the Company or the Holder, and “Parties” means the Company and the Holder.

 

(b) “Trading Market” means the OTC Markets or a United States national securities exchange which is the primary trading market for the Common Stock.

 

(c) “Trading Day” means any day on which the Common Stock is traded or available for trading on the Trading Market.

 

(d) “Transfer Agent” means the Company’s transfer agent for the Common Stock as in place at the applicable time.

 

 

 

 

Section 2. Exercise.

 

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

 

(b) Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be $0.001 (as the same may be adjusted as set forth herein, the “Exercise Price”). The Exercise Price shall not be subject to any adjustment as a result of any forward or reverse split of the Common Stock.

 

(c) Cashless Exercise.

 

(i)In the event that as of the date of the delivery of a Notice of Exercise there is no effective registration statement registering the Warrant Shares, or no current prospectus available for the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder, this Warrant (to the extent set forth in such Notice of Exercise) may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares computed using the following formula:

 

X = Y (A-B)

 

A

 

2

 

 

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

 

Y =the number of Warrant Shares that the Holder elects to purchase under this Warrant (at the date of such calculation).

 

A= the VWAP (as defined below) at the date of such calculation.

 

B = Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation).

 

(ii)If Warrant Shares are issued in such a cashless exercise, the parties acknowledge and agree that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, the Warrant Shares shall take on the characteristics of the Warrants being exercised, and the holding period of the Warrant Shares being issued may be tacked on to the holding period of this Warrant. The Company agrees not to take any position contrary to this Section 2(c).

 

(iii)For purposes herein, “VWAP” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (1) If the Common Stock is then listed for trading on the OTC Markets or a United States national securities exchange (as applicable, the “Trading Market”), then the volume-weighted average (rounded to the nearest $0.0001) of the closing prices of Common Stock on such Trading Market during the 10 Trading Day (as defined below) period immediately prior to the applicable measurement date, as reported by such Trading Market or other reputable source; (2) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading on a Trading Market, and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported in the “Pink Sheets” published by OTC Markets Group, Inc. (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per share of the Common Stock so reported; and (3) if the closing price of Common Stock or the most recent bid price per share of the Company Common Stock cannot be calculated for such security on such date on bases as set forth in clause (1) or clause (2) above, the VWAP on such date shall be the fair market value of the Common Stock as mutually determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company and the Holder after taking into consideration factors they may each deem appropriate. All such determinations of the VWAP as set forth in clause (1) or clause (2) above shall be appropriately adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, recapitalization or other similar transaction during such measurement period. “Trading Day” means any day on which the Common Stock is traded or available for trading on the Trading Market.

(d) Mechanics of Exercise.

 

(i)Delivery of Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. The Company shall cause the Warrant Shares purchased hereunder to be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder or (B) the Warrant Shares are eligible for resale by the Holder without volume or manner-of-sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144, and otherwise in book-entry format by recording the Holder as the beneficial owner of the Warrant Shares in the books and records of the Transfer Agent. The Warrant Shares shall not be certificated. The Warrant Shares shall be issued by the date that is the earliest of (i) two (2) Trading Days after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise, (ii) one (1) Trading Day after delivery of the aggregate Exercise Price to the Company and (iii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period, if applicable, after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”). Upon delivery of the Notice of Exercise, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the Warrant Shares, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received within the earlier of (i) two (2) Business Days and (ii) the number of Business Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period following delivery of the Notice of Exercise. As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means, if applicable, the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Business Days, on the OTC Markets or a United States national securities exchange which is the primary trading market for the Common Stock as in effect on the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise. In no event shall the Company be required to net cash settle an exercise of this Warrant.

 

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

 

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

 

4

 

 

(iv)Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense of the Company in respect of the issuance of such Warrant Shares, all of which taxes and Company expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such Warrant Shares shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; provided, however, that, in the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Exercise and all fees to the Depository Trust Company (or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions) required for same-day electronic delivery of the Warrant Shares.

 

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

 

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

Section 3. Certain Adjustments.

 

(a) Stock Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, or (ii) combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then in each case the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, without any adjustment of the Exercise Price. By way of example and not limitation, in the event of a forward split of the Common Stock following the Issue Date in which each share of Common Stock is converted into two shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be increased by 100%, and in the event of a reverse split of the Common Stock following the Issue Date in which each two shares of Common Stock are converted into one share of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be reduced by 50%, in each case without adjustment to the Exercise Price. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

 

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

(c) Dilutive Issuances. If the Company, at any time prior to the full exercise of this Warrant, issues, sells or grants any option to purchase, or sells or grants any right to reprice, or otherwise disposes of, or issues (or has sold or issued, as the case may be, or announces any sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition), any Common Stock or other securities convertible into, exercisable for, or otherwise entitle any person or entity the right to acquire, shares of Common Stock, in each or any case at an effective price per share of less than $0.001 per share of Common Stock (such lower price, the “Base Exercise Price” and such issuances, collectively, a “Dilutive Issuance”) (it being agreed that if the holder of the Common Stock or other securities 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 lower than $0.001 per share of Common Stock, such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than $0.001 per share of Common Stock on such date of the Dilutive Issuance), then the Exercise Price shall be reduced, at the option of the Holder, to a price equal to the Base Exercise Price. Such adjustment shall be made whenever such Common Stock or other securities are issued. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment will be made under this Section 3(c) in respect of an Exempt Issuance (as defined below). In the event of an issuance of securities involving multiple tranches or closings, any adjustment pursuant to this Section 3(c) shall be calculated as if all such securities were issued at the initial closing. An “Exempt Issuance” shall mean the issuance of (a) shares of Common Stock or other securities to officers or directors of the Company pursuant to any stock or option or similar equity incentive 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 in a manner which is consistent with the Company’s prior business practices; (b) securities issued pursuant to a merger, consolidation, acquisition or similar business combination approved by a majority of the disinterested directors of the Company, provided that any such issuance shall only be to a Person (or to the equity holders of a Person) which is, itself or through its subsidiaries, an operating company or an owner of an asset in a business synergistic with the business of the Company and 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 or to an entity whose primary business is investing in securities; (c) securities issued pursuant to any equipment loan or leasing arrangement, real property leasing arrangement or debt financing from a bank or similar financial institution approved by a majority of the disinterested directors of the Company; or (d) securities issued with respect to which the Holder waives its rights in writing under this Section 3(c).

 

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

 

(e) Notice to Holder. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 3, the Company shall promptly deliver to the Holder by email a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

 

(f) Voluntary Adjustment By Company. Subject to the rules and regulations of the Trading Market, the Company may at any time during the term of this Warrant, subject to the prior written consent of the Holder, 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.

Section 4. Transfer of Warrant.

 

(a) Transferability. Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws and the conditions set forth in Section 4(d), this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company or its designated agent, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney, together with proper evidence of succession, assignment, or authority to transfer as reasonably acceptable to the Company, and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable, and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company unless the Holder has assigned this Warrant in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company as of the date of the assignment of this Warrant.

 

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

 

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

 

8

 

 

(d) Transfer Restrictions.

 

(i)The Holder, as of the Issue Date as set forth above, represents to the Company that such Holder is acquiring this Warrant for its own account for investment purposes and not with a view to the distribution thereof or of the Warrant Shares. Notwithstanding any provisions contained in this Warrant to the contrary, this Warrant and the related Warrant Shares shall not be transferable except pursuant to the proviso contained in the following sentence or upon the conditions specified in this Section 4(d), which conditions are intended, among other things, to insure compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and applicable state law in respect of the transfer of this Warrant or such Warrant Shares. The Holder by acceptance of this Warrant agrees that the Holder will not transfer this Warrant or the related Warrant Shares prior to delivery to the Company of an opinion of the Holder’s counsel (as such opinion and such counsel are described in Section 4(d)(ii)) or until registration of such Warrant Shares under the Securities Act has become effective.

 

(ii)The Holder, by its acceptance hereof, agrees that prior to any transfer of this Warrant or of the related Warrant Shares (other than pursuant to a registration under the Securities Act), the Holder will give written notice to the Company of its intention to effect such transfer, together with an opinion of such counsel for the Holder as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company, to the effect that the proposed transfer of this Warrant and/or such Warrant Shares may be effected without registration under the Securities Act. Upon delivery of such notice and opinion to the Company, the Holder shall be entitled to transfer this Warrant and/or such Warrant Shares in accordance with the intended method of disposition specified in the notice to the Company.

 

(iii)Each stock certificate representing Warrant Shares issued upon exercise or exchange of this Warrant shall bear the following legend unless the opinion of counsel referred to in this Section 4(d) states such legend is not required:

 

“THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THIS SECURITY MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT WITH A REGISTERED BROKER-DEALER OR OTHER LOAN WITH A FINANCIAL INSTITUTION THAT IS AN “ACCREDITED INVESTOR” AS DEFINED IN RULE 501(a) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR OTHER LOAN SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES.”

Section 5. Miscellaneous.

 

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

 

(b) No Rights as Stockholder Until Exercise; No Settlement in Cash. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 2(d)(i), except as expressly set forth in Section 3. Without limiting any rights of a Holder to receive Warrant Shares on a “cashless exercise” pursuant to Section 2(c) (if available), in no event shall the Company be required to net cash settle an exercise of this Warrant.

 

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

 

10

 

 

(d) 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.

 

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

 

(f) Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company. IN NO EVENT WILL ANY PARTY BE LIABLE TO ANY OTHER PARTY UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS WARRANT OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN FOR SPECIAL, GENERAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS OR LOST OPPORTUNITY, EVEN IF THE PARTY SOUGHT TO BE HELD LIABLE HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE.

 

(g) Currency. All dollar amounts are in U.S. dollars.

 

(h) Notices. Any notices hereunder shall be given in accordance with the terms of the Agreement.

 

(i) Attorneys’ Fees. In the event that any Party institutes any action or suit to enforce this Warrant or to secure relief from any default hereunder or breach hereof, the prevailing Party shall be reimbursed by the losing Party for all costs, including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred in connection therewith and in enforcing or collecting any judgment rendered therein.

 

(j) Amendments; No Waivers; No Third-Party Beneficiaries.

 

(i)This Warrant may be amended, modified, superseded, terminated or cancelled, and any of the terms, covenants, representations, warranties or conditions hereof may be waived, only by a written instrument executed by all of the Parties.

 

(ii)Every right and remedy provided herein shall be cumulative with every other right and remedy, whether conferred herein, at law, or in equity, and may be enforced concurrently herewith, and no waiver by any Party of the performance of any obligation by another Party shall be construed as a waiver of the same or any other default then, theretofore, or thereafter occurring or existing.

 

11

 

 

(iii)Neither any failure or delay in exercising any right or remedy hereunder or in requiring satisfaction of any condition herein nor any course of dealing shall constitute a waiver of or prevent any Party from enforcing any right or remedy or from requiring satisfaction of any condition. No notice to or demand on a Party waives or otherwise affects any obligation of that Party or impairs any right of the Party giving such notice or making such demand, including any right to take any action without notice or demand not otherwise required by this Warrant. No exercise of any right or remedy with respect to a breach of this Warrant shall preclude exercise of any other right or remedy, as appropriate to make the aggrieved Party whole with respect to such breach, or subsequent exercise of any right or remedy with respect to any other breach.

 

(iv)This Warrant is strictly between the Parties and no other person or entity, employee, agent, independent contractor of either Party shall be deemed to be a third-party beneficiary of this Warrant.

 

(k) Expenses. Unless otherwise contemplated or stipulated by this Warrant, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Warrant shall be paid by the Party incurring such cost or expense.

 

(l) Successors and Assigns; Benefit. This Warrant shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No Party shall have any power or any right to assign or transfer, in whole or in part, this Warrant, or any of its rights or any of its obligations hereunder, including, without limitation, any right to pursue any claim for damages pursuant to this Warrant or the transactions contemplated herein, or to pursue any claim for any breach or default of this Warrant, or any right arising from the purported assignor’s due performance of its obligations hereunder, without the prior written consent of the other Party and any such purported assignment in contravention of the provisions herein shall be null and void and of no force or effect.

 

(m) Governing Law; Etc.

 

(i)This Warrant, and all matters based upon, arising out of or relating in any way to this warrant or the transactions contemplated herein (the “Transactions”) including all disputes, claims or causes of action arising out of or relating to the Transactions or this Warrant as well as the interpretation, construction, performance and enforcement of this Warrant, shall be governed by the laws of the United States and the State of Nevada, without regard to any jurisdiction’s conflict-of-laws principles.

 

(ii)ANY LEGAL SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN SHALL BE INSTITUTED SOLELY IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA OR THE COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, IN EACH CASE LOCATED FAIRFAX COUNTY, VIRGINIA, AND EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE PERSONAL JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING. THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR ANY PROCEEDING IN SUCH COURTS AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE AND AGREE NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY SUCH COURT THAT ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.

 

12

 

 

(iii)EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN, THE PERFORMANCE THEREOF OR THE FINANCINGS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS Section 5(m)(iii).

 

(iv)Each of the Parties acknowledge that each has been represented in connection with the signing of this waiver by independent legal counsel selected by the respective Party and that such Party has discussed the legal consequences and import of this waiver with legal counsel. Each of the Parties further acknowledge that each has read and understands the meaning of this waiver and grants this waiver knowingly, voluntarily, without duress and only after consideration of the consequences of this waiver with legal counsel.

 

(n) Severability.

Initial Registration Rights Agreement

 

This Initial Registration Rights Agreement (the “Agreement”) is entered into as of October 18, 2022 (the “Effective Date”), by and between Sysorex, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), and each of the persons or entities set forth on the signature pages hereof (each an “Investor” and collectively, the “Investors”).

WHEREAS, as an inducement to the Investors to execute and deliver the SPA, the Company has agreed to provide certain registration rights under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder, or any similar successor statute (collectively, the “Securities Act”), and applicable state securities Laws, with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the SPA or issuable on any exercise of the Warrant 1s;

 

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing promises and the mutual covenants contained hereinafter and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

Article II. Registration

 

Section 2.01 Registration. The Company shall, within 30 calendar days of the Effective Date, use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC a Registration Statement or Registration Statements (as is necessary) on Form S-1 (or, if such form is unavailable for such a registration, on such other form as is available for such registration) covering the resale of all of the Registrable Securities, or amend its current Registration Statement to cover the Registrable Securities, which Registration Statement(s) shall state that, in accordance with Rule 416 promulgated under the Securities Act, such Registration Statement also covers such indeterminate number of additional shares of Common Stock as may become issuable upon stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions. The Company shall initially register for resale all of the Registrable Securities and as shall be permitted to be included thereon in accordance with applicable SEC rules, regulations and interpretations so as to permit the resale of such Registrable Securities by the Investors, including but not limited to under Rule 415 under the Securities Act at then-prevailing market prices (and not fixed prices).

 

Section 2.02 New Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the registration obligations set forth in this Article II, if the staff of the SEC (the “Staff”) or the SEC informs the Company that all of the unregistered Registrable Securities cannot, as a result of the application of Rule 415, be registered for resale as a secondary offering on a single Registration Statement, the Company agrees to promptly (i) inform each of the holders thereof and use its commercially reasonable efforts to file amendments to the Registration Statement as required by the SEC and/or (ii) withdraw the Registration Statement and file a new registration statement (the “New Registration Statement”), in either case covering the maximum number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered by the SEC, on Form S-1 to register for resale the Registrable Securities as a secondary offering. If the Company amends the Registration Statement or files a New Registration Statement, as the case may be, under clauses (i) or (ii) above, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC, as promptly as allowed by the Staff or SEC, one or more registration statements on Form S-1 to register for resale those Registrable Securities that were not registered for resale on the Registration Statement, as amended, or the New Registration Statement.

Section 2.03 Related Obligations. At such time as the Company is obligated to prepare and file the Registration Statement with the SEC pursuant to this Article II, the Company will affect the registration of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof and, with respect thereto, the Company shall have the obligations as set forth in this Section 2.03.

 

(a)The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement relating to the Registrable Securities to become effective and shall use commercially reasonable efforts keep such Registration Statement effective until the earlier to occur of the date on which the Investors shall have sold all the Registrable Securities (the “Registration Period”). The Registration Statement (including any amendments or supplements thereto and prospectuses contained therein) shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading. The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to respond to all SEC comments within ten (10) Trading Days from receipt of such comments by the Company. The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement relating to the Registrable Securities to become effective no later than three (3) Trading Days after notice from the SEC that the Registration Statement may be declared effective. Each Investor agrees to provide all information which is required by Law to be provided to the Company, including the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities, and the Company’s obligations set forth above shall be conditioned on the receipt of such information.

 

(b)The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with such Registration Statement, which prospectus is to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the Securities Act, as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective during the Registration Period, and, during such period, comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement until such time as all of such Registrable Securities shall have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the Investors thereof as set forth in such Registration Statement. In the event the number of shares of Common Stock covered by the Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement is at any time insufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities, the Company shall amend such Registration Statement, or file a new Registration Statement (on the short form available therefor, if applicable), or both, so as to cover all of the Registrable Securities, in each case, as soon as practicable, but in any event, within thirty (30) calendar days after the necessity therefor arises (based on relevant factors on which the Company reasonably elects to rely) and subject to SEC rules, regulations and interpretations, assuming the Company has sufficient authorized shares at that time, and if it does not, within thirty (30) calendar days after such shares are authorized. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such amendment and/or new Registration Statement to become effective as soon as reasonably practicable following the filing thereof.

 

(c)The Company shall make available to each Investor and its legal counsel without charge (i) promptly after the same is prepared and filed with the SEC at least one (1) copy of such Registration Statement and any amendment(s) thereto, including financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated therein by reference and all exhibits, the prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary prospectus) and, with regards to such Registration Statement(s), except as may be prohibited by Law or with respect to any information which may be material non-public information, any correspondence by or on behalf of the Company to the SEC or the staff of the SEC and any correspondence from the SEC or the staff of the SEC to the Company or its representatives relating to such Registration Statement; (ii) upon the effectiveness of any Registration Statement, the Company shall make available copies of the prospectus, via EDGAR, included in such Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto; and (iii) such other documents, including copies of any preliminary or final prospectus, as an Investor may reasonably request from time to time to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities. For the avoidance of doubt, any filing available to the Investors via the SEC’s live EDGAR system shall be deemed “available to the Investor” hereunder.

 

3

 

 

(d)The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) register and qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement under such other securities or “blue sky” Laws of such states in the United States as any Investor reasonably requests; (ii) prepare and file in those jurisdictions, such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof during the Registration Period; (iii) take such other actions as may be necessary to maintain such registrations and qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration Period, and (iv) take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to (x) qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 2.03(d), (y) subject itself to general taxation in any such jurisdiction or (z) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction. The Company shall promptly notify the Investors of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the registration or qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale under the securities or “blue sky” Laws of any jurisdiction in the United States or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose.

 

(e)As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, the Company shall notify the Investors in writing of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in the Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (“Registration Default”) and use all diligent efforts to promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to such Registration Statement and take any other necessary steps to cure the Registration Default (which, if such Registration Statement is on Form S-3, may consist of a document to be filed by the Company with the SEC pursuant to Section 13(a), Section 13(c), Section 14 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act and to be incorporated by reference in the prospectus) to correct such untrue statement or omission, and make available copies of such supplement or amendment to the Investors. The Company shall also promptly notify the Investors (i) when a prospectus or any prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and when the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment has become effective (the Company will prepare notification of such effectiveness which shall be delivered to the Investors on the same day of such effectiveness and by overnight mail), additionally, the Company will promptly provide to the Investors a copy of the effectiveness order prepared by the SEC once it is received by the Company; (ii) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or related prospectus or related information, (iii) of the Company’s reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement would be appropriate, (iv) in the event the Registration Statement is no longer effective, or (v) if the Registration Statement is stale as a result of the Company’s failure to timely file its financials or otherwise.

 

(f)The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or the suspension of the qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction and, if such an order or suspension is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order or suspension at the earliest possible moment and to notify the Investors holding Registrable Securities being sold of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threat of any proceeding concerning the effectiveness of the registration statement.

 

4

 

 

(g)The Company shall permit each Investor and one (1) legal counsel for each Investor, designated by such Investor, to review and comment upon the Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto at least one (1) calendar day prior to their filing with the SEC. However, any postponement of a filing of a Registration Statement or any postponement of a request for acceleration or any postponement of the effective date or effectiveness of a Registration Statement by written request of any Investor (collectively, the “Investor Delay”) shall not act to trigger any penalty of any kind, or any cash amount due or any in-kind amount due to any Investor from the Company under any and all agreements of any nature or kind between the Company and any Investor. The event(s) of an Investor Delay shall act to suspend all obligations of any kind or nature of the Company under any and all agreements of any nature or kind between the Company and any Investor.

 

(h)The Company shall hold in confidence and not make any disclosure of information concerning the Investors unless (i) disclosure of such information is necessary to comply with federal or state Laws, (ii) the disclosure of such information is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement, or (iii) the release of such information is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other final, non-appealable order from a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction. The Company agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such information concerning any Investor is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, to the extent legally permissible, give prompt written notice to such Investor and allow such Investor, at such Investor’s expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order covering such information.

 

(i)The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to maintain designation and quotation of all the Registrable Securities covered by any Registration Statement on the Trading Market. If, despite the Company’s commercially reasonable efforts, the Company is unsuccessful in satisfying the preceding sentence, it shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all the Registrable Securities covered by any Registration Statement to be listed on each other national securities exchange and automated quotation system, if any, on which securities of the same class or series issued by the Company are then listed, if any, if the listing of such Registrable Securities is then permitted under the rules of such exchange or system. The Company shall pay all fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligation under this Section 2.03(i).

 

(j)The Company shall cooperate with the Investors to facilitate the prompt preparation and delivery the Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to the Registration Statement and enable such Registrable Securities to be in such denominations or amounts, as the case may be, as the Investors may reasonably request.

 

(k)The Company shall provide a transfer agent for all the Registrable Securities not later than the effective date of the first Registration Statement filed pursuant hereto.

 

(l)If reasonably requested by an Investor, the Company shall (i) as soon as reasonably practical incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information as the Investors reasonably determine should be included therein relating to the sale and distribution of Registrable Securities, including, without limitation, information with respect to the offering of the Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering; (ii) make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment as soon as reasonably possible after being notified of the matters to be incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment; and (iii) supplement or make amendments to any Registration Statement.

 

5

 

 

(m)The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registrable Securities covered by the applicable Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other Governmental Authorities as may be necessary to facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities.

 

(n)The Company shall otherwise use all commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC in connection with any registration hereunder.

 

(o)Within three (3) Trading Days after the Registration Statement which includes Registrable Securities is declared effective by the SEC, the Company shall deliver to the transfer agent for such Registrable Securities, with copies to the Investors, confirmation that such Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC.

 

(p)All legal expenses, other than underwriting discounts and sales or brokerage commissions and other than as set forth in the SPA, incurred in connection with registrations including comments, filings or qualifications pursuant to Article II including, without limitation, all registration, listing and qualifications fees, and printing fees shall be paid by the Company.

 

(q)With a view to making available to the Investors the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or any other similar rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Investors to sell Registrable Securities to the public without registration (“Rule 144”), provided that the Investors hold any Registrable Securities are eligible for resale under Rule 144, the Company agrees to (i) make and keep adequate current public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144; (ii) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act so long as the Company remains subject to such requirements and the filing of such reports and other documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144; and (ii) furnish to the Investors, promptly upon request, (1) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, (2) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (3) such other information as may be reasonably requested to permit the Investors to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration.

 

Section 2.04 Obligations of Each of the Investors.

 

(a)At least five (5) calendar days prior to the first anticipated filing date of the Registration Statement, the Company shall notify the Investors in writing of the information the Company requires from the Investor for the Registration Statement. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to complete the registration pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Registrable Securities that each Investor agrees to furnish to the Company that information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities as shall reasonably be required to effect the registration of such Registrable Securities and such Investor shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request. Each Investor covenants and agrees that, in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities by it pursuant to the Registration Statement, it shall comply with the “Plan of Distribution” section of the then-current prospectus relating to such Registration Statement.

 

(b)Each Investor agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of any Registration Statement hereunder.

 

(c)Each Investor agrees that, upon receipt of written notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 2.03(f) or the first sentence of Section 2.03(e), such Investor will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement(s) covering such Registrable Securities until the Investor’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 2.03(f) or the first sentence of Section 2.03(e).

Article III. Indemnification

 

Section 3.01 General Application. In the event any Registrable Securities are included in the Registration Statement under this Agreement this Article III shall apply thereto.

 

Section 3.02 Indemnification.

 

(a)To the fullest extent permitted by Law and subject to the terms and conditions herein, the Company will, and hereby does, agree to indemnify, hold harmless and defend each Investor, the directors, officers, partners, employees, counsel, agents, representatives of, and each Person, if any, who controls, such Investor within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each, an “Investor Indemnified Party”), against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties, charges, costs, attorneys’ fees, amounts paid in settlement or expenses, joint or several (collectively, “Claims”), incurred in investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim, suit, inquiry, proceeding, investigation or appeal taken from the foregoing by or before any court or governmental, administrative or other regulatory agency, body or the SEC, whether pending or threatened, whether or not an indemnified party is or may be a party thereto (“Indemnified Damages”), to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto or in any filing made in connection with the qualification of the offering under the securities or other “blue sky” Laws of any jurisdiction in which such Investor has requested in writing that the Company register or qualify the Shares (“Blue Sky Filing”), or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the final prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if the Company files any amendment thereof or supplement thereto with the SEC) or the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other Law, including, without limitation, any state securities Law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement, and the Company shall notify Purchaser promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any proceeding arising from or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement of which the Company is aware (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii) being, collectively, “Violations”). Subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 3.02(c) the Company shall reimburse the applicable Investor and each such controlling person, promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any reasonable legal fees or other reasonable expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim related to a Violation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 3.02 (i) shall not apply, as to an Investor, to a Claim arising out of or based upon a Violation which is due to the inclusion in the Registration Statement of the information furnished to the Company by any such Investor’s Investor Indemnified Party expressly for use in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto; (ii) shall not be available to the extent such Claim is based on (a) a failure of such Investor to deliver or to cause to be delivered the prospectus made available by the Company or (b) any such Investor’s Investor Indemnified Party’s use of an incorrect prospectus despite being promptly advised in advance by the Company in writing not to use such incorrect prospectus; (iii) any claims based on the manner of sale of the Registrable Securities by such Investor or of such Investor’s failure to register as a dealer under applicable securities Laws; (iv) any omission of such Investor to notify the Company of any material fact that should be stated in the Registration Statement or prospectus relating to such Investor or the manner of sale; and (v) any amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Investor Indemnified Party and shall survive the resale of the Registrable Securities by the Investor pursuant to the Registration Statement.

(b)In connection with any Registration Statement in which an Investor is participating, such Investor agrees to severally and jointly indemnify, hold harmless and defend, to the same extent and in the same manner as is set forth in this Section 3.02, the Company, the officers, directors, members, partners, agents and employees (and any other individuals or entities with a functionally equivalent role of a person holding such titles, notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title) of the Company, each individual or entity who controls the company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and the officers, directors, members, partners, agents and employees (and any other individuals or entities with a functionally equivalent role of a person holding such titles, notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title) of each such controlling individual (each a “Company Indemnified Party”) against any Claim or Indemnified Damages to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claim or Indemnified Damages arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent, and only to the extent, that such Violation is incurred, arises out of or related to (1) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement, any related prospectus or any form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any such prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading or (2) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities Law, or any rule or regulation thereunder, in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, but only to the extent that such untrue statements or omissions are based upon information regarding such Investor furnished to the Company by such Investor for use therein, and such Investor will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any Company Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 3.02(b) and the agreement with respect to contribution contained in Section 3.04 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of such Investor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Each Investor shall notify the Company promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any proceeding arising from or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement of which such Investor is aware.

 

(c)Any indemnity hereunder shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Investor Indemnified Party or Company Indemnified Party (each, an “Indemnified Party”), as applicable, and shall survive the resale of the Registrable Securities by the Investors pursuant to the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Article III with respect to any preliminary prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Indemnified Party if the untrue statement or omission of material fact contained in the preliminary prospectus were corrected on a timely basis in the prospectus, as then amended or supplemented. This indemnification provision shall apply separately to each Investor and liability hereunder shall not be joint and several.

 

(d)Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party under this Article III of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including any governmental action or proceeding) involving a Claim, such Indemnified Party shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Article III, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that an Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party, the representation by counsel of the Indemnified Party and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The indemnifying party shall pay for only one (1) separate legal counsel for the Indemnified Party and such counsel shall be selected by the Investors a party to such dispute, if such Investors are entitled to indemnification hereunder, or the Company, if the Company is entitled to indemnification hereunder, as applicable. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or Claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Indemnified Party which relates to such action or Claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnified Party fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effectuated without its written consent, provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such Claim. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified Party under this Article III, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.

Section 3.03 Additional Rights. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (i) any cause of action or similar right of the Indemnified Party against the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the Law.

 

Section 3.04 Contribution. To the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited by Law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under this Article III to the fullest extent permitted by Law; provided, however, that: (i) no contribution shall be made under circumstances where the maker would not have been liable for indemnification under the fault standards set forth in this Article III; and (ii) no seller of Registrable Securities guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any seller of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation.

(c)Neither any failure or delay in exercising any right or remedy hereunder or in requiring satisfaction of any condition herein nor any course of dealing shall constitute a waiver of or prevent any Party from enforcing any right or remedy or from requiring satisfaction of any condition. No notice to or demand on a Party waives or otherwise affects any obligation of that Party or impairs any right of the Party giving such notice or making such demand, including any right to take any action without notice or demand not otherwise required by this Agreement. No exercise of any right or remedy with respect to a breach of this Agreement shall preclude exercise of any other right or remedy, as appropriate to make the aggrieved Party whole with respect to such breach, or subsequent exercise of any right or remedy with respect to any other breach.

The Company and the Investors may be referred to herein collectively as the “Parties” and each individually as a “Party”.

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement entered into by and between the Company and the Investors as of the Effective Date (the “SPA”), the Company has, among other things, agreed to issue and sell to the Investors warrants in the form of Common Stock Purchase Warrant – Form 2 to acquire 500,000,000 shares of Company’s common stock, par value $0.00001 per share (the “Common Stock”) in the form as attached to the SPA as Exhibit A-2, at an exercise price of $0.001 per share (collectively, the “Warrant 2s”); and

 

WHEREAS, as an inducement to the Investors to execute and deliver the SPA, the Company has agreed to provide certain registration rights under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder, or any similar successor statute (collectively, the “Securities Act”), and applicable state securities Laws, with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable on any exercise of the Warrant 2s;

 

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing promises and the mutual covenants contained hereinafter and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

Article II. Registration

 

Section 2.01 Piggyback Registration Rights. If at any time following the Trigger Date, and while the Investor remains the holder of any Registrable Securities thereafter, the Company proposes to file any registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the Common Stock (a “Registration Statement”) for its own account or for shareholders of the Company for their account (or by the Company and by shareholders of the Company), other than a Registration Statement (i) filed in connection with any employee stock option or other benefit plan, (ii) for a dividend reinvestment plan or (iii) in connection with a merger or acquisition, then the Company shall (x) give written notice of such proposed filing to Investor as soon as practicable but in no event less than ten (10) days before the anticipated filing date of the Registration Statement, which notice shall describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such Registration Statement, the intended method(s) of distribution, and the name of the proposed managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, of the offering, and (y) offer to Investor in such notice the opportunity to register the sale of such number of Registrable Securities as Investor may request in writing within five (5) days following receipt of such notice (a “Piggyback Registration”). The Company shall cause such Registrable Securities to be included in such registration and shall cause the managing underwriter or underwriters of a proposed underwritten offering to permit the Registrable Securities requested to be included in a Piggyback Registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the Company and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. If Investor proposes to distribute its Registrable Securities through a Piggyback Registration that involves an underwriter or underwriters, then it shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such Piggyback Registration.

 

 2 

 

 

Section 2.02 Limitations. If a Piggyback Registration is initiated as a primary underwritten offering on behalf of the Company and the managing underwriter advises the Company and the Investor and the holders of any other shares of Common Stock which are also “Registrable Securities” under an agreement similar to this Agreement (if any holders of Registrable Securities have elected to include Registrable Securities in such Piggyback Registration) in writing that in its reasonable and good faith opinion the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in such registration, including all Registrable Securities and all other shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in such underwritten offering, exceeds the number of shares of Common Stock which can be sold in such offering and/or that the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in any such registration or takedown would adversely affect the price per share of the Common Stock to be sold in such offering, the Company shall include in such registration (i) first, the shares of Common Stock that the Company proposes to sell; and (ii) the shares of Common Stock requested to be included therein by the Investor and the other holders of Registrable Securities, allocated among the Investor and such other holders pro rata based on the number of Registrable Securities held by each of Investor and such other holders.

 

Section 2.03 Withdrawal. Investor may elect to withdraw such Investor’s request for inclusion of Registrable Securities in any Piggyback Registration by giving written notice to the Company of such request to withdraw prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement. The Company (whether on its own determination or as the result of a withdrawal by persons making a demand pursuant to written contractual obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement at any time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding any such withdrawal, the Company shall pay all expenses incurred by Investor of Registrable Securities in connection with such Piggyback Registration as provided in Section 2.06.

 

Section 2.04 Notification. The Company shall notify Investor of Registrable Securities at any time when a prospectus relating to such Investor’s Registrable Securities is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, upon discovery that, or upon the happening of any event as a result of which, the prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing. At the request of Investor, the Company shall also prepare, file and furnish to Investor a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to Investor, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing. Investor shall not offer or sell any Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement after receipt of such notification until the receipt of such supplement or amendment.

 

Section 2.05 Information. The Company may request that Investor furnish the Company such information with respect to Investor and Investor’s proposed distribution of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement as the Company may from time to time reasonably request in writing or as shall be required by law or by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in connection therewith, and Investor shall furnish the Company with such information.

 

Section 2.06 Fees and Expenses. All fees and expenses incident to the performance of or compliance with this Agreement by the Company shall be borne by the Company whether or not any Registrable Securities are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement. The fees and expenses referred to in the foregoing sentence shall include, without limitation, (i) all registration and filing fees (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of the Company’s counsel and independent registered public accountants) (A) with respect to filings made with the SEC, (B) with respect to filings required to be made with any trading market on which the Common Stock is then listed for trading, (C) in compliance with applicable state securities or Blue Sky laws reasonably agreed to by the Company in writing (including, without limitation, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company in connection with Blue Sky qualifications or exemptions of the Registrable Securities) and (D) with respect to any filing that may be required to be made by any broker through which Investor of Registrable Securities intends to make sales of Registrable Securities with the FINRA, (ii) printing expenses, (iii) messenger, telephone and delivery expenses, (iv) fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, (v) Securities Act liability insurance, if the Company so desires such insurance, and (vi) fees and expenses of all other persons or entities retained by the Company in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In addition, the Company shall be responsible for all of its internal expenses incurred in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expense of any annual audit and the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the Registrable Securities on any securities exchange as required hereunder. In no event shall the Company be responsible for any broker or similar commissions of Investor.

Article III. Indemnification

 

Section 3.01 General Application. In the event any Registrable Securities are included in the Registration Statement under this Agreement this Article III shall apply thereto.

 

Section 3.02 Indemnification.

 

(a)To the fullest extent permitted by Law and subject to the terms and conditions herein, the Company will, and hereby does, agree to indemnify, hold harmless and defend each Investor, the directors, officers, partners, employees, counsel, agents, representatives of, and each Person, if any, who controls, such Investor within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each, an “Investor Indemnified Party”), against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties, charges, costs, attorneys’ fees, amounts paid in settlement or expenses, joint or several (collectively, “Claims”), incurred in investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim, suit, inquiry, proceeding, investigation or appeal taken from the foregoing by or before any court or governmental, administrative or other regulatory agency, body or the SEC, whether pending or threatened, whether or not an indemnified party is or may be a party thereto (“Indemnified Damages”), to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto or in any filing made in connection with the qualification of the offering under the securities or other “blue sky” Laws of any jurisdiction in which such Investor has requested in writing that the Company register or qualify the Shares (“Blue Sky Filing”), or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the final prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if the Company files any amendment thereof or supplement thereto with the SEC) or the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other Law, including, without limitation, any state securities Law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement, and the Company shall notify Purchaser promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any proceeding arising from or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement of which the Company is aware (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii) being, collectively, “Violations”). Subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 3.02(c) the Company shall reimburse the applicable Investor and each such controlling person, promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any reasonable legal fees or other reasonable expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim related to a Violation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 3.02 (i) shall not apply, as to an Investor, to a Claim arising out of or based upon a Violation which is due to the inclusion in the Registration Statement of the information furnished to the Company by any such Investor’s Investor Indemnified Party expressly for use in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto; (ii) shall not be available to the extent such Claim is based on (a) a failure of such Investor to deliver or to cause to be delivered the prospectus made available by the Company or (b) any such Investor’s Investor Indemnified Party’s use of an incorrect prospectus despite being promptly advised in advance by the Company in writing not to use such incorrect prospectus; (iii) any claims based on the manner of sale of the Registrable Securities by such Investor or of such Investor’s failure to register as a dealer under applicable securities Laws; (iv) any omission of such Investor to notify the Company of any material fact that should be stated in the Registration Statement or prospectus relating to such Investor or the manner of sale; and (v) any amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(b)In connection with any Registration Statement in which an Investor is participating, such Investor agrees to severally and jointly indemnify, hold harmless and defend, to the same extent and in the same manner as is set forth in this Section 3.02, the Company, the officers, directors, members, partners, agents and employees (and any other individuals or entities with a functionally equivalent role of a person holding such titles, notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title) of the Company, each individual or entity who controls the company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and the officers, directors, members, partners, agents and employees (and any other individuals or entities with a functionally equivalent role of a person holding such titles, notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title) of each such controlling individual (each a “Company Indemnified Party”) against any Claim or Indemnified Damages to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claim or Indemnified Damages arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent, and only to the extent, that such Violation is incurred, arises out of or related to (1) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement, any related prospectus or any form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any such prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading or (2) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities Law, or any rule or regulation thereunder, in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, but only to the extent that such untrue statements or omissions are based upon information regarding such Investor furnished to the Company by such Investor for use therein, and such Investor will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any Company Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 3.02(b) and the agreement with respect to contribution contained in Section 3.04 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of such Investor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Each Investor shall notify the Company promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any proceeding arising from or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement of which such Investor is aware.

 

(c)Any indemnity hereunder shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Investor Indemnified Party or Company Indemnified Party (each, an “Indemnified Party”), as applicable, and shall survive the resale of the Registrable Securities by the Investors pursuant to the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Article III with respect to any preliminary prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Indemnified Party if the untrue statement or omission of material fact contained in the preliminary prospectus were corrected on a timely basis in the prospectus, as then amended or supplemented. This indemnification provision shall apply separately to each Investor and liability hereunder shall not be joint and several.

(d)Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party under this Article III of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including any governmental action or proceeding) involving a Claim, such Indemnified Party shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Article III, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that an Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party, the representation by counsel of the Indemnified Party and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The indemnifying party shall pay for only one (1) separate legal counsel for the Indemnified Party and such counsel shall be selected by the Investors a party to such dispute, if such Investors are entitled to indemnification hereunder, or the Company, if the Company is entitled to indemnification hereunder, as applicable. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or Claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Indemnified Party which relates to such action or Claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnified Party fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effectuated without its written consent, provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such Claim. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified Party under this Article III, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.

 

Section 3.03 Additional Rights. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (i) any cause of action or similar right of the Indemnified Party against the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the Law.

 

Section 3.04 Contribution. To the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited by Law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under this Article III to the fullest extent permitted by Law; provided, however, that: (i) no contribution shall be made under circumstances where the maker would not have been liable for indemnification under the fault standards set forth in this Article III; and (ii) no seller of Registrable Securities guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any seller of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation.

 

Article IV. Miscellaneous

 

Section 4.01 Notices. Any notices hereunder shall be given in accordance with the terms of the SPA.

 

Section 4.02 Attorneys’ Fees.
