Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Private Offering

 

As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Cipherloc Corporation (the “Company”, “we” or “us”), on April 8, 2021, on March 31, 2021, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), with certain accredited investors (the “Purchasers”), pursuant to which the Company, on March 31, 2021, sold the Purchasers an aggregate of 35,757,942 (a) shares of common stock (the “Shares”), and (b) warrants to purchase shares of common stock (the “Warrants”) of the Company. The Shares and Warrants were sold at a price of $0.18 per combined Share and Warrant (the “Offering Price”), which was equal to 80% of the closing sales price of the Company’s common stock on the OTC Pink market on March 30, 2021, which was the last trading day prior to the entry into the Purchase Agreement.

 

The Purchase Agreement allowed for additional sales of Shares and Warrants, and additional closings, until the earlier of (a) April 30, 2021; (b) the date that the Company had sold $10 million in Shares and Warrants; or (c) such earlier date as the Company and the Placement Agent (defined below) may mutually agree.

 

Subsequent to the original March 31, 2021 closing, additional Purchasers became party to the Purchase Agreement, and purchased an aggregate of 19,791,673 Shares (55,549,615 Shares when including Shares sold on March 31, 2021) and 19,791,673 Warrants (55,549,615 Warrants when including Warrants sold on March 31, 2021) pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, pursuant to closings which occurred on April 7, 2021; April 9, 2021; and April 16, 2021, as follows:

 

Date of Closing   Shares Sold   Warrants Sold
April 7, 2021   7,513,893   7,513,893
April 9, 2021   8,683,336   8,683,336
April 16, 2021   3,594,444   3,594,444
    19,791,673   19,791,673

 

The purchase price of the Shares and Warrants sold in April 2021 were the same as those sold on March 31, 2021 ($0.18 per Share and Warrant), and the Warrants had identical terms as those sold on March 31, 2021, except that each tranche of Warrants was exercisable for five years from the Date of Closing on which they were granted.

 

Total gross proceeds from the offering of the Shares and Warrants sold in April 2021 was $3.56 million, or $10 million when added to the $6.64 million of gross proceeds from the March 31, 2021 closing. As a result, the offering is now closed.

 

Paulson Investment Company, LLC (the “Placement Agent”), served as placement agent for the offering and the Company entered into a Placement Agent Agreement with the Placement Agent in connection therewith (the “Placement Agreement”) and an Indemnification Agreement. As partial consideration for the services provided by the Placement Agent, the Company granted the Placement Agent and its assigns, warrants to purchase shares of common stock (the “Placement Warrants”, also discussed in greater detail below).

 

The Company also granted the Purchasers registration rights pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement (the “RR Agreement”).

 

There were no changes to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Lock-Up Agreements, RR Agreement, the Warrants (other than the dates of exercise as discussed above), or the Placement Agent Agreement, in connection with the April 2021 sales, versus the March 31, 2021 sales, and the terms of such documents/securities are described in greater detail in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on April 8, 2021, which information is incorporated herein by reference.

 

 
 

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Placement Agent Agreement entered into with the Placement Agent, we agreed to pay the Placement Agent a cash commission of 13% of the gross proceeds received in the offering ($463,125 in connection with the April 2021 sales and $871,736 in connection with the March 31, 2021 closing, or $1,334,861 in aggregate), and to grant the Placement Agent a warrant to purchase 15% of the Shares sold in the offering (2,968,748 shares in connection with the April 2021 sales and 5,363,691 shares in connection with the March 31, 2021 closing, or warrants to purchase 8,332,439 shares in aggregate).

 

The Placement Warrants are evidenced by a Placement Warrant, have a term of 10 years, an exercise price of $0.18 per share (the Offering Price), a term of 10 years, and cashless exercise rights. We are required to pay the Placement Agent liquidated damages of $10 per day for each $1,000 of shares not timely delivered upon the exercise of the Placement Warrants. The Placement Warrants include a weighted average anti-dilution right in the event we issue any shares of common stock or equivalents with a value less than the then exercise price. As a result, the effect of the anti-dilution right may cause significant dilution to existing shareholders.

The foregoing summary included or incorporated by reference above, of the Warrant Agreements, Placement Warrants, Purchase Agreement, RR Agreement, Lock-Up Agreements, Placement Agreement and Indemnification Agreement, is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Form of Warrant Agreement, Placement Warrant, Form of Purchase Agreement, Form of Registration Rights Agreement, Form of Lock-Up Agreement, Placement Agreement and Indemnification Agreement, which are incorporated herein by reference as Exhibits 4.1 and 4.2 and Exhibits 10.1 through 10.5, respectively, and are incorporated into this Item 1.01 in their entirety, by reference.

 

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to build the organization needed to commercialize its existing patented technology, pay the compensation of directors and officers (including accrued compensation), and fund additional working capital needs.

 

This Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute an offer to sell any securities or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of any securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.

 

Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

 

The information in Item 1.01 relating to the offering, the 55,549,615 Shares, 55,549,615 Warrants, and 8,332,439 Placement Warrants, are incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02. We claim an exemption from registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), for such issuances and grants, since the foregoing issuances and grants did not involve a public offering, the recipients were (a) “accredited investors”; and/or (b) had access to similar documentation and information as would be required in a Registration Statement under the Securities Act, the recipients acquired the securities for investment only and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof. The securities were offered without any general solicitation by us or our representatives. No underwriters or agents were involved in the foregoing grants and we paid no underwriting discounts or commissions. The securities are subject to transfer restrictions, and the certificates evidencing the securities contain/will contain an appropriate legend stating that such securities have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold absent registration or pursuant to an exemption therefrom. The securities were not registered under the Securities Act and such securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws.

 

 
 

 

In the event the Warrants are exercised in full (and without taking into account any anti-dilutive rights associated therewith), a maximum of a total of 55,549,615 shares of common stock would be issuable to the holders thereof upon exercise thereof (including 19,791,673 shares of common stock issuable to the holders thereof who acquired Warrants pursuant to the April 2021 closings and 35,757,942 shares of common stock issuable to the holders thereof who acquired Warrants pursuant to the March 31, 2021 closing).

 

In the event the Placement Warrants are exercised in full (and without taking into account any anti-dilutive rights associated therewith), a maximum of a total of 8,332,439 shares of common stock would be issuable to the holder(s) thereof upon exercise thereof (including 2,968,748 shares issuable upon exercise of warrants due in connection with the April 2021 sales and 5,363,691 shares issuable upon exercise of warrants due in connection with the March 31, 2021 closing).

This is to certify that, as of April 16, 2021, for value received and subject to the terms and conditions set forth below, the Warrantholder is entitled to purchase, and the Company promises and agrees to sell and issue to the Warrantholder, at any time on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Expiration Date, up to 1,365,175 shares of Common Stock at the per share Exercise Price pursuant to this Warrant (the “Warrant”).

 

This Warrant is issued by the Company pursuant to Section 2(b) of the Placement Agent Agreement, subject to the following terms and conditions:

 

1. Definitions of Certain Terms. Except as may be otherwise clearly required by the context, the following terms have the following meanings:

(e) “Exercise Price” means $0.18 per share of Common Stock.

(i) “Securities Act” means the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

(j) “Warrant Shares” means the shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable.

 

(k) “Warrantholder” means the record holder of the Warrant.

 

2. Exercise of Warrant.

 

(a) All or any part of the Warrant may be exercised commencing on the Closing Date (the “Initial Exercise Date”) and ending at 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the ten-year anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Expiration Date”) by surrendering this Warrant, together with the aggregate Exercise Price and appropriate instructions included on the Exercise Form attached hereto as Exhibit A (“Notice of Exercise”), duly executed by the Warrantholder or by its duly authorized attorney, at the office of the Company, 6836 Bee Caves Road, Building 1, Suite 279, Austin, TX 78746; or at such other office or agency as the Company may designate. The date on which the Company receives the Notice of Exercise shall be the date of exercise.

 

  2  
  Cipherloc Warrant #PA-04-2021-27  
 

 

(b) If the Warrantholder elects a Cashless Exercise, the Warrantholder shall surrender shares of Common Stock equal in value to the Exercise Price as payment of the Exercise Price with its Notice of Exercise as provided in Section 2(b), and the Company shall issue to the Warrantholder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula:

 

 

  Where:   X = The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Warrantholder pursuant to a Cashless Exercise
           
      Y = The number of shares of Common Stock in respect of which the Cashless Exercise election is made
           
      A = The fair market value of one share of Common Stock at the time the Cashless Exercise election is made
           
      B = The Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of the Cashless Exercise)

 

For purposes of this Section 2(b), the fair market value of one share of Common Stock as of a particular date shall be determined as follows: (i) if traded on a national securities exchange, the value shall be deemed to be the closing price of the Common Stock on such exchange on the day prior to the Cashless Exercise; (ii) if traded over-the-counter, the value shall be deemed to be the mean of the closing bid and ask price of the Common Stock on the day prior to the Cashless Exercise; and (iii) if there is no active public market, the value shall be equal to the lower of (1) the most recent value of the Company’s Common Stock or Common Stock equivalent granted to an employee or consultant and (2) the most recent issue or sale price of the Company’s Common Stock.

 

(c) Subject to the provisions below, upon receipt of the Notice of Exercise, this Warrant and payment in full in cash or in surrender of Warrant Shares, the Company shall promptly issue the Warrant Shares to the Warrantholder pursuant to the instructions in the Notice of Exercise. If the Warrantholder requests book-entry shares, the Company shall cause the Warrant Shares to be transmitted by its transfer agent to the Warrantholder by crediting the account of the Warrantholder or its designee with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in that system and either (i) there is an effective registration statement or applicable exemption permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by the Warrantholder or (ii) this Warrant is being exercised by Cashless Exercise. The Company agrees to maintain a transfer agent that is a participant in the FAST program so long as this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable. If the Company is not a DWAC participant or the Warrantholder requests a physical certificate representing the Warrant Shares, the Company shall issue and deliver a physical certificate representing the Warrant Shares to the Warrantholder. The Warrant Shares to be obtained on exercise of the Warrant will be deemed to have been issued, and any person exercising the Warrant will be deemed to have become a holder of record of those Warrant Shares, as of the later of (i) the date the Company receives the Notice of Exercise and (ii) the date the Company receives available funds in cash in payment of the Exercise Price (the “Notice Date”). If the Warrant Shares are delivered via DWAC or by physical delivery, the Company must deliver the Warrant Shares within two business days of the Notice Date (the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”).

 

  3  
  Cipherloc Warrant #PA-04-2021-27  
 

 

(d) If the Company does not deliver the Warrant Shares by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Warrantholder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Warrant Shares subject to such exercise (based on the value of the Common Stock on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise), $10 per business day (increasing to $20 per business day on the fifth business day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each business day after the Warrant Share Delivery Date until the Warrant Shares are delivered or Warrantholder rescinds its Notice of Exercise.

 

(e) No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued in connection with the exercise of the Warrant. If an exercise of the Warrant would result in a fractional Warrant Share, the number of Warrant Shares to be issued shall be rounded to the nearest whole number.

 

(f) Upon the exercise of the Warrant and at the request of the Warrantholder, the Company shall engage counsel to issue any legal opinion required to sell or otherwise transfer the Warrant Shares and pay for the provision of the legal opinion and any associated costs.

 

(g) If fewer than all the Warrant Shares purchasable under the Warrant are purchased, the Company will, upon such partial exercise, execute and deliver to the Warrantholder a new Warrant (dated the date hereof), in form and tenor similar to this Warrant, evidencing that portion of the Warrant not exercised.

 

(h) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Warrant Shares be issued, and the Company is authorized to refuse to honor the exercise of the Warrant, if exercise of the Warrant would result in the opinion of the Company’s Board of Directors, upon advice of counsel, in the violation of any law.

 

3. Adjustments in Certain Events. The number, class, and price of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant may be exercised are subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:

 

(a) Adjustment for Stock Splits and Combinations. If the outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock are divided into a greater number of shares or a dividend in stock is paid on the Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrant is then exercisable will be proportionately increased and the Exercise Price will be proportionately reduced; and, conversely, if the outstanding shares of Common Stock are combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrant is then exercisable will be proportionately reduced and the Exercise Price will be proportionately increased. The increases and reductions provided for in this Section 3(a) will be made with the intent and, as nearly as practicable, the effect that neither the percentage of the total equity of the Company obtainable on exercise of the Warrant nor the price payable for such percentage upon such exercise will be affected by any event described in this Section 3(a). Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision or combination.

 

  4  
  Cipherloc Warrant #PA-04-2021-27  
 

 

(b) Adjustment for Merger or Reorganization. In case of any change in the Common Stock through merger, consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation, purchase of substantially all the assets of the Company, or other change in the capital structure of the Company, then, as a condition of such change, lawful and adequate provision will be made so that the Warrantholder will have the right thereafter to receive upon the exercise of the Warrant the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property to which the Warrantholder would have been entitled if, immediately prior to such event, the Warrantholder had held the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon the exercise of the Warrant. In any such case, appropriate adjustment will be made in the application of the provisions set forth herein with respect to the rights and interest thereafter of the Warrantholder, to the end that the provisions set forth herein will thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to any shares of stock or other securities or property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of the Warrant. The Company will not permit any change in its capital structure to occur unless the issuer of the shares of stock or other securities to be received by the holder of this Warrant, if not the Company, agrees to be bound by and comply with the provisions of this Warrant.

 

(c) Adjustment Upon Issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock. If and whenever on or after the date hereof, the Company issues or sells (or is deemed to have issued or sold) any shares of Common Stock for consideration per share less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to that issuance or sale, then the Exercise Price shall be reduced, concurrently with the issuance or sale, to a price (calculated to the nearest one-hundredth of one cent) determined in accordance with the following formula:

 

CP2 = CP1*(A + B) ÷ (A + C).

 

For purposes of the foregoing formula, the following definitions shall apply:

 

“CP2” shall mean the Exercise Price in effect immediately after such issuance or deemed issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock;

 

“CP1” shall mean the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance or deemed issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock;

 

“A” shall mean the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance or deemed issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock (treating for this purpose as outstanding all shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Options outstanding immediately prior to such issuance or deemed issuance or upon conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities outstanding (assuming exercise of any outstanding Options therefor) immediately prior to such issue);

 

  5  
  Cipherloc Warrant #PA-04-2021-27  
 

 

“B” shall mean the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued if such Additional Shares of Common Stock had been issued or deemed issued at a price per share equal to CP1 (determined by dividing the aggregate consideration received by the Company in respect of such issue by CP1); and

 

“C” shall mean the number of such Additional Shares of Common Stock issued in such transaction.

 

(d) Right to Distributions. If securities of the Company or securities of any subsidiary of the Company are distributed pro rata to holders of Common Stock, such number of securities will be distributed to the Warrantholder or its assignee upon exercise of its rights hereunder as such Warrantholder or assignee would have been entitled to if this Warrant had been exercised prior to the record date for such distribution. The provisions with respect to adjustment of the Common Stock provided in this Section 3 will also apply to the securities to which the Warrantholder or its assignee is entitled under this Section 3(d).

 

(e) Certificate of Adjustments. When any adjustment is required to be made in the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant, the Company will promptly determine the new number of Warrant Shares and shall (i) prepare and retain on file a statement in its corporate records describing in reasonable detail the method used in arriving at the new number of Warrant Shares and (ii) cause a copy of such statement to be mailed to the Warrantholder within 30 days after the date of the event giving rise to the adjustment.

 

(f) Special Definitions. For the purposes of this Section 3, the following definitions shall apply:

 

(i) “Option” shall mean rights, options or warrants to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire Common Stock or Convertible Securities.

 

(ii) “Convertible Securities” shall mean any evidences of indebtedness, shares or other securities directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, but excluding Options.

 

(iii) “Additional Shares of Common Stock” shall mean all shares of Common Stock issued or deemed to be issued by the Company after the date hereof, other than (1) shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities issued by reason of a dividend, stock split, split-up or other distribution on shares of Common Stock that is covered by this Section 3; (2) shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities actually issued upon the exercise of Options or shares of Common Stock actually issued upon the conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities, in each case provided such issuance is pursuant to the terms of such Option or Convertible Security; and (3) shares of Common Stock deemed issued pursuant to the following Options and Convertible Securities (clauses (1) through (3), collectively, “Exempted Securities”).

 

  6  
  Cipherloc Warrant #PA-04-2021-27  
 

 

4. Reservation of Shares. The Company agrees that the number of shares of Common Stock sufficient to provide for the exercise of the Warrant upon the basis set forth above will, at all times during the term of the Warrant, be reserved for issuance.

 

5. Validity of Shares. All Warrant Shares delivered upon the exercise of the Warrant will be duly and validly issued in accordance with their terms and, upon payment of the Exercise Price, will be fully paid and non-assessable. The Company will pay all documentary and transfer taxes, if any, in respect of the original issuance thereof upon exercise of the Warrant.

 

6. Transferability.

 

(a) Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws, the Warrant may be transferred to individuals who are members, a partner, officer or other representative, affiliate or stakeholder of Paulson Investment Company, LLC. The Warrant may be divided or combined, upon request to the Company by the Warrantholder, into additional Warrants evidencing the same aggregate number of Warrant Shares. Any such transfer shall be effected upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company or its designated agent, together with a written assignment of the Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B duly executed by the Warrantholder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable, and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of the Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled.

 

7. Securities Act Compliance. The Warrantholder hereby represents: (a) that this Warrant and any Warrant Shares will be acquired for investment for the Warrantholder’s own account and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and (b) that the Warrantholder is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. The Company may place conspicuously upon each certificate representing the Warrant Shares a legend substantially in the following form, the terms of which are agreed to by the Warrantholder:

 

“THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT (1) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR (2) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, IN EACH CASE IN ACCORDANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND THE SECURITIES LAWS OF OTHER JURISDICTIONS AND, IN THE CASE OF A TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION, UNLESS THE COMPANY HAS RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO IT THAT SUCH TRANSACTION DOES NOT REQUIRE REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND SUCH OTHER APPLICABLE LAWS.”

(b) Remedies. The Warrantholder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, is entitled to specific performance of its rights and the Company’s duties under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of the Company’s breach of the provisions of this Warrant and the Company hereby agrees to waive and not to assert the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate in any action for specific performance relating to 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) Non-Waiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of the Warrantholder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the Warrantholder’s rights, powers or remedies. Without limiting any other provision of this Warrant, if the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material damages to the Warrantholder, the Company shall pay to the Warrantholder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any reasonable costs and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by the Warrantholder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.

 

(e) Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Warrantholder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Warrantholder, shall give rise to any liability of the Warrantholder 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.

 

(f) Successors and Assigns. This Warrant may be assigned by the Warrantholder in accordance with applicable securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Warrantholder. The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of any Warrantholder from time to time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by the Warrantholder or holder of Warrant Shares.

 

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

 

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

 

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