5.3 Survival . The rights and obligations contained in Articles III, IV, and VI will survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement.
VI. INDEMNIFICATION
6.1 Authority . The Company’s Articles do not expressly provide for the indemnification of its officers and directors. Nonetheless, under the Nevada Revised Statutes, a director or officer is not liable for damages resulting from an act or a failure to act in his or her capacity as a director or officer unless it is proved that the act or failure
Page 3 of 10
was (1) a breach of his or her fiduciary duties as a director or officer, and (2) involved intentional misconduct, fraud, or a knowing violation of law.
6.2 Indemnification .
(a) the Company will indemnify Director to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law if Director was or is a party or threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding of any kind, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative and whether formal or informal (including actions by or in the right of the Company and any preliminary inquiry or claim by any person or authority), by reason of the fact that Director is or was a director, officer, partner, trustee, employee or agent of the Company or is or was serving at the Company’s request as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation (including a Subsidiary), limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, whether or not for profit, or by reason of anything done or not done by Director in any such capacity (collectively, “ Covered Matters ”). Such indemnification will cover all Expenses (as defined in paragraph 6.5(a) below), liabilities, judgments (including punitive and exemplary damages), penalties, fines (including excise taxes relating to employee benefit plans and civil penalties) and amounts paid in settlement that are incurred or imposed upon Director in connection with a Covered Matter (collectively, “ Indemnified Amounts ”).
(b) Director will be indemnified for all Indemnified Amounts and the Company will defend Director against claims (including threatened claims and investigations) in any way related to Director’s service as a director including claims brought by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary, except if it is finally determined by the court of last resort (or by a lower court if not timely appealed) that (1) the payment is prohibited by applicable law or (2) Director engaged in intentional misconduct for the primary purpose of significant personal financial benefit through actions adverse to the Company’s and its shareholders’ best interests. As used in this Agreement, (1) “intentional misconduct” will not include violations of disclosure or reporting requirements of federal securities laws or a breach of fiduciary duties (including duties of loyalty or care) if Director relied on advice of counsel to the Company, or otherwise reasonably believed that there was no violation of such requirements or breach of fiduciary duty; and (2) “significant personal financial benefit” will not include compensation or employee benefits for past or prospective services to the Company or the Company’s successor or in connection with an agreement not to compete or similar agreement, or any benefit received by directors or officers or shareholders of the Company generally.
(c) If Director is entitled under this Agreement to indemnification for less than all of the amounts incurred by Director in connection with a Covered Matter, the Company will indemnify Director for the indemnifiable amount.
6.3 Claims for Indemnification . Director will give the Company written notice of any claim for indemnification under this Agreement. Payment requests will include a
Page 4 of 10
schedule setting forth in reasonable detail the amount requested and will be accompanied (or, if necessary, followed) by copies of the relevant invoice or other documentation. Upon the Company’s request, Director will provide the Company with a copy of the document or pleading, if any, notifying Director of the Covered Matter. To the extent practicable, the Company will pay Indemnified Amounts directly without requiring Director to make any prior payment.
6.4 Determination of Right to Indemnification .
(a) Director will be presumed to be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement and will receive such indemnification, subject to paragraph 6.4(b) below, irrespective of whether the Covered Matter involves allegations of intentional misconduct, alleged violations of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, alleged violations of Section 10(b) of Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (including Rule 10b-5 thereunder), breach of Director’s fiduciary duties (including duties of loyalty or care) or any other claim.
(b) If, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, applicable law permits indemnification in a Covered Matter only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification is proper in the circumstances because Director has met a standard of conduct established by applicable law, and upon an evaluation of Indemnification Amounts to be paid in connection with such Covered Matter, the following will apply:
(1) the Company will give Director notice that a determination and evaluation will be made under this paragraph 6.4(b); such notice will be given immediately after receipt of counsel’s opinion that such a determination and evaluations necessary and will include a copy of such opinion.
(2) Such determination and evaluation will be made in good faith, as follows:
(A) by a majority vote of a quorum of the Company’s Board of Directors who are not parties or threatened to be made parties to the Covered Matter in question (“ Disinterested Directors ”) or, if such a quorum is not obtainable, by a majority vote of a committee of Disinterested Directors who are selected by the Board; or
(B) by an attorney or firm of attorneys, having no previous relationship with the Company or Director, which is selected by the Company and Director; or
(C) by all independent directors of the Company who are not parties or threatened to be made parties to the Covered Matter.
(3) Director will be entitled to a hearing before the entire Board of Directors of the Company and any other person or persons making the
Page 5 of 10
determination and evaluation under clause (2) above. Director will be entitled to be represented by counsel at such hearing.
(4) The cost of a determination and evaluation under this paragraph 6.4(b) (including attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred by Director in preparing for and attending the hearing contemplated by clause (3) above and otherwise in connection with the determination and evaluation under this paragraph 6.4(b)) will be borne by the Company.
(5) The determination will be made as promptly as possible after final adjudication of the Covered Matter.
(6) Director will be presumed to have met the required standard of conduct under this Section 6.4(b) unless it is clearly demonstrated to the determining body that Director had not met the required standard of conduct.
6.5 Advance of Expenses .
(a) Before final adjudication of a Covered Matter, upon Director’s request pursuant to paragraph 6.3 above, the Company will promptly either advance Expenses directly or reimburse Director for all Expenses. As used in this Agreement, “Expenses” means all costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees, expert fees, other professional fees and court costs) incurred by Director in connection with a Covered Matter other than judgments, penalties, fines and settlement amounts.
(b) If, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, applicable law permits advancement of Expenses only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that Director has met a standard of conduct established by applicable law, the determination will be made at the Company’s cost, in good faith and as promptly as possible after Director’s request, in accordance with clauses (1) through (4) and (6) of paragraph 6.4(b) above. Because of the difficulties inherent in making any such determination before final disposition of the Covered Matter, to the extent permitted by law such advance will be made if (1) the facts then known to those persons making the determination, without conducting a formal independent investigation, would not preclude advancement of Expenses under applicable law and (2) Director submits to the Company a written affirmation of Director’s belief that Director has met the standard of conduct necessary for advancement of Expenses under the circumstances.
(c) Director will repay any Expenses that are advanced under this paragraph 6.5 if it is ultimately determined, in a final, non-appealable judgment rendered by the court of last resort (or by a lower court if not timely appealed), that Director is not entitled to be indemnified against such Expenses. This undertaking by Director is an unlimited general undertaking but no security for such undertaking will be required.

6.6 Defense of Claim .
(a) Except as provided in paragraph 6.6(c) below, the Company, jointly with any other indemnifying party, will be entitled to assume the defense of any Covered Matter as to which Director requests indemnification.
(b) Counsel selected by the Company to defend any Covered Matter will be subject to Director’s advance written approval, which will not be unreasonably withheld.
(c) Director may employ Director’s own counsel in a Covered Matter and be fully reimbursed therefore if (1) the Company approves, in writing, the employment of such counsel or (2) either (A) Director has reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest between the Company and Director or between Director and other parties represented by counsel employed by the Company to represent Director in such action or (B) the Company has not employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to Director to assume the defense of such Covered Matter promptly after Director’s request.
(d) Neither the Company nor Director will settle any Covered Matter without the other’s written consent, which will not be unreasonably withheld.
(e) If Director is required to testify (in court proceedings, depositions, informal interviews or otherwise), consult with counsel, furnish documents or take any other reasonable action in connection with a Covered Matter, the Company will pay Director a fee for Director’s efforts at a rate equal to the amount payable to Director for attending Board and Board committee meetings, plus reimbursement for all reasonable expenses incurred by Director in connection therewith.
6.7 D&O Insurance . The parties will cooperate to obtain advances of Expenses, indemnification payments and consents from D&O Insurance carriers in any Covered Matter to the full extent of applicable D&O Insurance. The existence of D&O Insurance coverage will not diminish or limit the Company’s obligation to make indemnification payments to Director. Amounts paid directly to Director with respect to a Covered Matter by the Company’s D&O Insurance carriers will be credited to the amounts payable by the Company to Director under this Agreement.
6.8 Limitations of Actions; Limitation of Liability . No action will be brought by or on behalf of the Company against Director or Director’s heirs or personal representatives relating to Director’s service as a director, after the expiration of one year from the date Director ceases (for any reason) to serve as a Director of the Company, and any claim or cause of action of the Company will be extinguished and deemed released unless asserted by the filing of a legal action before the expiration of such period.
6.9 Rights Not Exclusive . The Indemnification provided to Director under this Agreement will be in addition to any indemnification provided to Director by law,
Page 7 of 10
agreement, Board resolution, provision of the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company or otherwise.
6.10 Subrogation . Upon payment of any Indemnified Amount under this Agreement, the Company will be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of Director’s rights of recovery therefore and Director will take all reasonable actions requested by the Company (at no cost or penalty to Director) to secure the Company’s rights under this paragraph 11 including executing documents.
6.11 Continuation of Indemnity . All of the Company’s obligations under this Agreement will continue as long as Director is subject to any actual or possible Covered Matter, notwithstanding Director’s termination of service as a director.
VII. MISCELLANEOUS
7.1 Assignment . Except as expressly permitted by this Agreement, neither party shall assign, delegate, or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns.
7.2 No Waiver . The failure of any party to insist upon the strict observance and performance of the terms of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of other obligations hereunder, nor shall it be considered a future or continuing waiver of the same terms.

Grey Cloak Dunn Group Warrant
COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
THIS IS TO CERTIFY that, for value received, The Dunn Group, LLC, a Minnesota limited liability company, or its assigns (the “Holder”) is entitled, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, to purchase from Grey Cloak Tech Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”) up to one million (1,000,000) fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock of the Company (the “Warrant Securities”) at the initial price of twenty five cents ($0.25) per share but subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4 below (the “Exercise Price”).
1. Exercisability .
(A) General Exercisability . Subject to the vesting schedule in Section 2, below, this Warrant may be exercised between the date hereof and seven (7) years thereafter, by presentation and surrender hereof to the Company of a notice of election to purchase duly executed and accompanied by payment by check or wire transfer of the Exercise Price, or election to utilize the provisions of Section 1(B).
(B) Cashless Conversion of Warrants . Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, the Holder may convert this Warrant into that number of shares of the Company’s common stock by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with the properly endorsed form of election to purchase in which event the Company shall issue to the holder hereof a number of shares of the Company’s common stock computed using the following formula:
Page 1 of 8
X = Y (A-B)
A
Where X = the number of shares of the Company’s common stock to be issued to the holder hereof
Y = the number of shares of the Company’s common stock purchasable under the Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised, the portion of the Warrant being canceled (at the date of such calculation)
A = the fair market value of one share of the Company’s common stock (at the date of such calculation)
B = the Exercise Price
All references herein to an “exercise” of the Warrant shall include a conversion pursuant to this Section. For the purposes of the above calculation, the Fair Market Value of one share of the Company’s common stock as of a particular date shall mean:
(a) If traded on a securities exchange or the NASDAQ National Market, the Fair Market Value shall be deemed to be the closing price of the common stock of the Company on such exchange or market on the date in question. If there is no closing selling price for such common stock on the date in question, then the fair market value shall be the closing selling price on the last preceding date for which such a quotation exists;
(b) If actively traded over-the-counter, the Fair Market Value shall be deemed to be the closing bid price of the common stock of the Company on the date in question. If there is no closing bid price for such common stock on the date in question, then the fair market value shall be the closing bid price on the last preceding date for which such a quotation exists;
(c) If the Company’s common stock is traded on multiple platforms, the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine the primary market for such common stock; and
(d) If there is no active public market, the “Fair Market Value” shall be the value thereof, as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors after taking into account such factors as the Board of Directors of the Company shall deem appropriate.
A stock certificate representing the appropriate number of shares of the common stock shall be delivered to the holder hereof within five (5) business days following the date of exercise.
Page 2 of 8
2. Vesting Schedule . This Warrant shall vest (a) immediately upon a Change of Control of the Company during the term of that certain Consulting Services Agreement between the Holder and the Company of even date herewith (the “Consulting Agreement”) or the Tail Period (as defined therein), or (b) in installments upon the successful acquisition by the Company, during the term of the Consulting Agreement, or the Tail Period, of the following number of IP addresses as a direct result of Holder’s efforts, as more fully set forth in the Consulting Agreement: (i) one-third (1/3) upon the acquisition of 17,000,000 IP addresses, (ii) one-third (1/3) upon the acquisition of an additional 17,000,000 IP addresses, and (iii) one-third (1/3) upon the acquisition of an additional 16,000,000 IP addresses.
A “Change of Control” will be deemed to have occurred if:
(i) any “person” as defined in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is or becomes the “beneficial owner” as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing thirty percent (30%) or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities. For purposes of this clause (a), the term “beneficial owner” does not include any employee benefit plan maintained by the Company that invests in the Company’s voting securities; or
(ii) during any period of two (2) consecutive years there shall cease to be a majority of the Board comprised as follows: individuals who at the beginning of such period constitute the Board or new directors whose nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the directors then still in office who either were directors at the beginning of the period or whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved; or
(iii) the stockholders of the Company approve a merger or consolidation of the Company with any other corporation, other than a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity) at least 70% of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the Company or such surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation, or the stockholders of the company approve a plan of complete liquidation of the Company or an agreement for the sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially all the Company’s assets; provided, however, that no change in control will be deemed to have occurred if such merger, consolidation, sale or disposition of assets, or liquidation is not subsequently consummated.
3. Manner of Exercise . In case of the purchase of less than all the Warrant Securities, the Company shall cancel this Warrant upon the surrender hereof and shall execute and deliver a new warrant of like tenor for the balance of the Warrant Securities. Upon the exercise of this Warrant, the issuance of certificates for securities, properties or rights underlying this Warrant shall be made forthwith (and in any event within three (3) business days thereafter) without charge to the Holder including, without limitation, any
Page 3 of 8
tax that may be payable in respect of the issuance thereof: provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax in respect of income or capital gain of the Holder.
If and to the extent this Warrant is exercised, in whole or in part, the Holder shall be entitled to receive a certificate or certificates representing the Warrant Securities so purchased, upon presentation and surrender to the Company of the form of election to purchase attached hereto duly executed, and accompanied by payment of the purchase price.
4. Adjustment in Number of Shares .
(A) Adjustment for Reclassifications . In case at any time or from time to time after the issue date the holders of the Common Stock of the Company (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall have received, or, on or after the record date fixed for the determination of eligible stockholders, shall have become entitled to receive, without payment therefore, other or additional stock or other securities or property (including cash) by way of stock split, spin-off, reclassification, combination of shares or similar corporate rearrangement (exclusive of any stock dividend of its or any subsidiary’s capital stock), then and in each such case the Holder of this Warrant, upon the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1, shall be entitled to receive the amount of stock and other securities and property which such Holder would hold on the date of such exercise if on the issue date he had been the holder of record of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company called for on the face of this Warrant and had thereafter, during the period from the issue date, to and including the date of such exercise, retained such shares and/or all other or additional stock and other securities and property receivable by him as aforesaid during such period, giving effect to all adjustments called for during such period. In the event of any such adjustment, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted proportionally.
(B) Adjustment for Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger . In case of any reorganization of the Company (or any other corporation the stock or other securities of which are at the time receivable on the exercise of this Warrant) after the issue date, or in case, after such date, the Company (or any such other corporation) shall consolidate with or merge into another corporation or convey all or substantially all of its assets to another corporation, then and in each such case the Holder of this Warrant, upon the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1 at any time after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation, merger or conveyance, shall be entitled to receive, in lieu of the stock or other securities or property to which such Holder would be entitled had the Holder exercised this Warrant immediately prior thereto, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein; in each such case, the terms of this Warrant shall be applicable to the shares of stock or other securities or property receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant after such consummation.
Page 4 of 8
5. No Requirement to Exercise . Nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as requiring the Holder to exercise this Warrant prior to or in connection with the effectiveness of a registration statement.
6. No Stockholder Rights . Unless and until this Warrant is exercised, this Warrant shall not entitle the Holder hereof to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company, or to any other rights whatsoever except the rights herein expressed, and, no dividends shall be payable or accrue in respect of this Warrant.
7. Piggyback Registration Rights . If the Company, at any time, proposes to conduct an offering of its securities so as to register any of its securities under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”), including under an S-1 Registration Statement or otherwise, the Company will at such time give written notice to the Holder of its intention so to do. If the offering being registered includes an underwriter, then subject to the approval of the underwriters, and upon the written request of the Holder, given within 10 days after receipt of any such notice, the Company will use its best efforts to cause the common stock underlying the exercise of the Warrants to be registered under the Act (with the securities which we are proposing to register).
8. Exchange . This Warrant is exchangeable upon the surrender hereof by the Holder to the Company for new warrants of like tenor representing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of Warrant Securities purchasable hereunder, each of such new warrants to represent the right to purchase such number of Warrant Securities as shall be designated by the Holder at the time of such surrender.
Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and, in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it and reimbursement to the company of all reasonable expenses incidental thereto, and upon surrender and cancellation hereof, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new warrant of like tenor and amount, in lieu hereof.
9. Elimination of Fractional Interests . The Company shall not be required to issue certificates representing fractions of securities upon the exercise of this Warrant, nor shall it be required to issue scrip or pay cash in lieu of fractional interests. All fractional interests shall be eliminated by rounding any fraction up to the nearest whole number of securities, properties or rights receivable upon exercise of this Warrant.
10. Reservation of Securities . The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized shares of Common Stock or other securities, solely for the purpose of issuance upon the exercise of this Warrant, such number of shares of Common Stock or other securities, properties or rights as shall be issuable upon the exercise hereof. The Company covenants and agrees that, upon exercise of this Warrant and payment of the Principal Value, all shares of Common Stock and other securities issuable upon such exercise shall be duly and validly issued, fully paid, non-assessable and not subject to the preemptive rights of any stockholder.
Page 5 of 8
11. Notices to Holder . If at any time prior to the expiration of this Warrant or its exercise, any of the following events shall occur:
(a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of any class of its securities for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or distribution payable otherwise than in cash, or a cash dividend or distribution payable otherwise than out of current or retained earnings, as indicated by the accounting treatment of such dividend or distribution on the books of the Company; or
(b) the Company shall offer to all the holders of a class of its securities any additional shares of capital stock of the Company or securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of capital stock of the Company, or any option or warrant to subscribe therefor; or
(c) a dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company (other than in connection with a consolidation or merger) or a sale of all or substantially all of its property, assets and business as an entirety shall be proposed.
then, in any one or more said events, the Company shall give written notice of such event to the Holder at least fifteen (15) days prior to the date fixed as a record date or the date of closing the transfer books for the determination of the stockholder entitled to such dividend, distribution, convertible or exchangeable securities or subscription rights, or entitled to vote on such proposed dissolution, liquidation, winding up or sale. Such notice shall specify such record date or the date of closing the transfer books, as the case may be.
12. Transferability . This Warrant may not be transferred or assigned by the Holder without prior approval by the Company, which the Company may withhold in its sole discretion, except for a Permitted Transfer. A “Permitted Transfer” means a transfer to the Holder’s member and such member’s family members or a trust their benefit upon the death of the Holder’s member or for estate planning purposes of the Holder’s member.
13. Informational Requirements . The Company will transmit to the Holder such information, documents and reports as are generally distributed to stockholders of the Company concurrently with the distribution thereof to such stockholders.

In case at any time or from time to time after the issue date the holders of the Common Stock of the Company (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall have received, or, on or after the record date fixed for the determination of eligible stockholders, shall have become entitled to receive, without payment therefore, other or additional stock or other securities or property (including cash) by way of stock split, spin-off, reclassification, combination of shares or similar corporate rearrangement (exclusive of any stock dividend of its or any subsidiary’s capital stock), then and in each such case the Holder of this Warrant, upon the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1, shall be entitled to receive the amount of stock and other securities and property which such Holder would hold on the date of such exercise if on the issue date he had been the holder of record of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company called for on the face of this Warrant and had thereafter, during the period from the issue date, to and including the date of such exercise, retained such shares and/or all other or additional stock and other securities and property receivable by him as aforesaid during such period, giving effect to all adjustments called for during such period. In the event of any such adjustment, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted proportionally.
(B) Adjustment for Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger . In case of any reorganization of the Company (or any other corporation the stock or other securities of which are at the time receivable on the exercise of this Warrant) after the issue date, or in case, after such date, the Company (or any such other corporation) shall consolidate with or merge into another corporation or convey all or substantially all of its assets to another corporation, then and in each such case the Holder of this Warrant, upon the
Page 4 of 8
exercise hereof as provided in Section 1 at any time after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation, merger or conveyance, shall be entitled to receive, in lieu of the stock or other securities or property to which such Holder would be entitled had the Holder exercised this Warrant immediately prior thereto, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein; in each such case, the terms of this Warrant shall be applicable to the shares of stock or other securities or property receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant after such consummation.
5. No Requirement to Exercise . Nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as requiring the Holder to exercise this Warrant prior to or in connection with the effectiveness of a registration statement.
6. No Stockholder Rights . Unless and until this Warrant is exercised, this Warrant shall not entitle the Holder hereof to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company, or to any other rights whatsoever except the rights herein expressed, and, no dividends shall be payable or accrue in respect of this Warrant.
7. Piggyback Registration Rights . If the Company, at any time, proposes to conduct an offering of its securities so as to register any of its securities under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”), including under an S-1 Registration Statement or otherwise, the Company will at such time give written notice to the Holder of its intention so to do. If the offering being registered includes an underwriter, then subject to the approval of the underwriters, and upon the written request of the Holder, given within 10 days after receipt of any such notice, the Company will use its best efforts to cause the common stock underlying the exercise of the Warrants to be registered under the Act (with the securities which we are proposing to register).
8. Exchange . This Warrant is exchangeable upon the surrender hereof by the Holder to the Company for new warrants of like tenor representing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of Warrant Securities purchasable hereunder, each of such new warrants to represent the right to purchase such number of Warrant Securities as shall be designated by the Holder at the time of such surrender.
Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and, in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it and reimbursement to the company of all reasonable expenses incidental thereto, and upon surrender and cancellation hereof, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new warrant of like tenor and amount, in lieu hereof.
9. Elimination of Fractional Interests . The Company shall not be required to issue certificates representing fractions of securities upon the exercise of this Warrant, nor shall it be required to issue scrip or pay cash in lieu of fractional interests. All fractional interests shall be eliminated by rounding any fraction up to the nearest whole number of securities, properties or rights receivable upon exercise of this Warrant.

10. Reservation of Securities . The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized shares of Common Stock or other securities, solely for the purpose of issuance upon the exercise of this Warrant, such number of shares of Common Stock or other securities, properties or rights as shall be issuable upon the exercise hereof. The Company covenants and agrees that, upon exercise of this Warrant and payment of the Principal Value, all shares of Common Stock and other securities issuable upon such exercise shall be duly and validly issued, fully paid, non-assessable and not subject to the preemptive rights of any stockholder.
11. Notices to Holder . If at any time prior to the expiration of this Warrant or its exercise, any of the following events shall occur:
(a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of any class of its securities for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or distribution payable otherwise than in cash, or a cash dividend or distribution payable otherwise than out of current or retained earnings, as indicated by the accounting treatment of such dividend or distribution on the books of the Company; or
(b) the Company shall offer to all the holders of a class of its securities any additional shares of capital stock of the Company or securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of capital stock of the Company, or any option or warrant to subscribe therefor; or
(c) a dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company (other than in connection with a consolidation or merger) or a sale of all or substantially all of its property, assets and business as an entirety shall be proposed.
then, in any one or more said events, the Company shall give written notice of such event to the Holder at least fifteen (15) days prior to the date fixed as a record date or the date of closing the transfer books for the determination of the stockholder entitled to such dividend, distribution, convertible or exchangeable securities or subscription rights, or entitled to vote on such proposed dissolution, liquidation, winding up or sale. Such notice shall specify such record date or the date of closing the transfer books, as the case may be.
12. Transferability . This Warrant may not be transferred or assigned by the Holder without prior approval by the Company, which the Company may withhold in its sole discretion, except for a Permitted Transfer. A “Permitted Transfer” means a transfer to the Holder’s family members or a trust their benefit upon the death of the Holder or for estate planning purposes of the Holder.
13. Informational Requirements . The Company will transmit to the Holder such information, documents and reports as are generally distributed to stockholders of the Company concurrently with the distribution thereof to such stockholders.

Notices shall be deemed to have been received on the date of personal delivery or facsimile transmission.

Nevada including all matters of construction, validity, performance, and enforcement and without giving effect to the principles of conflict of laws. Any action brought by any party hereto shall be brought within the State of Nevada, County of Clark.
