fraction of a share of Common Shares, the Company shall round such fraction of a share of Common Shares up to the nearest whole share. The Company shall pay any and all transfer, stamp and similar taxes, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of the transfer agent of the Company (the “Transfer Agent”)) that may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Common Shares upon conversion of any Conversion Amount.
3.2Conversion Rate. The number of shares of Common Shares issuable upon conversion of any Conversion Amount pursuant to Section 3 shall be determined by dividing (x) such Conversion Amount by (y) the Conversion Price (the “Conversion Rate”).
3.3Mechanics of Conversion.
(a)Optional Conversion.
1.To convert any Conversion Amount into shares of Common Shares on any date (a “Conversion Date”), the Holder shall deliver (whether via facsimile, electronic mail or otherwise), for receipt on or prior to 11:59 p.m., New York time, on such date, a copy of an executed notice of conversion in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I (the “Conversion Notice”) to the Company.
2.On or before the second (2nd) Trading Day following the date of receipt of a Conversion Notice, the Company shall transmit by facsimile or electronic mail the transfer agent instructions and representation as to whether such shares of Common Shares may then be resold pursuant to (A) an effective and available registration statement, (B) Rule 144, provided that the Holder affirmatively indicates on the applicable Conversion Notice that the shares of Common Shares issuable in connection with such Conversion Notice have been or are being resold either prior to or contemporaneously with the date of the applicable Conversion Notice by the Holder, or (C) Rule 144 without having to comply with the information requirements under Rule 144(c)(1) (each, a “Permitted Securities Transaction”), in the form attached hereto as Exhibit II, to the Holder and the Transfer Agent which shall instruct the Transfer Agent to process such Conversion Notice in accordance with the terms herein.

682109329v2


4.The Person or Persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Shares issuable upon a conversion of this Note shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Shares on the Conversion Date.
5.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note or the Securities Purchase Agreement, after the effective date of the Registration Statement, the Company shall cause the Transfer Agent to deliver unlegended shares of Common Stock to the Holder (or its designee) in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities with respect to which the Holder has entered into a contract for sale, and delivered a copy of the prospectus included as part of the particular Registration Statement to the extent applicable, and for which the Holder has not yet settled.
(b)Reserved.
(c)Registration; Book-Entry. The Company shall maintain a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the holders of each Note and the principal amount of the Notes held by such holders (the “Registered Notes”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The Company and the holders of the Notes shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of a Note for all purposes (including, without limitation, the right to receive payments of Principal and Interest hereunder) notwithstanding notice to the contrary. A Registered Note may be assigned, transferred or sold in whole or in part only by registration of such assignment or sale on the Register. Upon its receipt of a written request to assign, transfer or sell all or part of any Registered Note by the holder thereof, the Company shall record the information contained therein in the Register and issue one or more new Registered Notes in the same aggregate principal amount as the principal amount of the surrendered Registered Note to the designated assignee or transferee pursuant to Section 18, provided that if the Company does not so record an assignment, transfer or sale (as the case may be) of all or part of any Registered Note within two (2) Business Days of such a request, then the Register shall be automatically deemed updated to reflect such assignment, transfer or sale (as the case may be). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 3, following conversion of any portion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Company. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the Principal, Interest and Late Charges converted and/or paid (as the case may be) and the dates of such conversions and/or payments (as the case may be) or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Company, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon conversion. If the Company does not update the Register to record such Principal, Interest and Late Charges converted and/or paid (as the case may be) and the dates of such conversions, and/or payments (as the case may be) within two (2) Business Days of such occurrence, then the Register shall be automatically deemed updated to reflect such occurrence.
(d)Pro Rata Conversion; Disputes. In the event that the Company receives a Conversion Notice from more than one holder of Notes for the same Conversion Date and the Company can convert some, but not all, of such portions of the Notes submitted for conversion, the Company, subject to Section 3.4, shall convert from each holder of Notes

4‌

682109329v2


electing to have Notes converted on such date a pro rata amount of such holder’s portion of its Notes submitted for conversion based on the principal amount of Notes submitted for conversion on such date by such holder relative to the aggregate principal amount of all Notes submitted for conversion on such date. In the event of a dispute as to the number of shares of Common Shares issuable to the Holder in connection with a conversion of this Note, the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of shares of Common Shares not in dispute and resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 23.
3.4Limitations on Conversions.  The Company shall not effect the conversion of any portion of this Note, and the Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Note pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Note and any such conversion shall be null and void and treated as if never made, to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion, the Holder together with the other Attribution Parties collectively would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the shares of Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of shares of Common Shares beneficially owned by the Holder and the other Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Shares held by the Holder and all other Attribution Parties plus the number of shares of Common Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude shares of Common Shares which would be issuable upon (A) conversion of the remaining, nonconverted portion of this Note beneficially owned by the Holder or any of the other Attribution Parties and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any convertible notes or convertible preferred shares or warrants) beneficially owned by the Holder or any other Attribution Party subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained in this Section 3.4. For purposes of this Section 3.4, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. For purposes of determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Shares the Holder may acquire upon the conversion of this Note without exceeding the Maximum Percentage, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Shares as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Current Report on Form 8-K or other public filing with the SEC, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent, if any, setting forth the number of shares of Common Shares outstanding (the “Reported Outstanding Share Number”). If the Company receives a Conversion Notice from the Holder at a time when the actual number of outstanding shares of Common Shares is less than the Reported Outstanding Share Number, the Company shall notify the Holder in writing of the number of shares of Common Shares then outstanding and, to the extent that such Conversion Notice would otherwise cause the Holder’s beneficial ownership, as determined pursuant to this Section 3.4, to exceed the Maximum Percentage, the Holder must notify the Company of a reduced number of shares of Common Shares to be purchased pursuant to such Conversion Notice. For any reason at any time, upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within one (1) Business Day confirm orally and in writing or by electronic mail to the Holder the number of shares of Common Shares then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Shares shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Note, by the Holder and any other Attribution Party since the date as of which the Reported Outstanding Share Number was reported. In the event that the issuance of shares of Common Shares to the Holder upon conversion of this Note results in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties being deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, more than the Maximum Percentage of the number of outstanding shares of Common Shares (as determined under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act), the number of shares so issued by which the

5‌

682109329v2


Holder’s and the other Attribution Parties’ aggregate beneficial ownership exceeds the Maximum Percentage (the “Excess Shares”) shall be deemed null and void and shall be cancelled ab initio, and the Holder shall not have the power to vote or to transfer the Excess Shares. Upon delivery of a written notice to the Company, the Holder may from time to time increase (with such increase not effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after delivery of such notice) or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage as specified in such notice; provided that (i) any such increase in the Maximum Percentage will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder and the other Attribution Parties and not to any other holder of Notes that is not an Attribution Party of the Holder.  For purposes of clarity, the shares of Common Shares issuable pursuant to the terms of this Note in excess of the Maximum Percentage shall not be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Holder for any purpose including for purposes of Section 13(d) or Rule 16a-1(a)(1) of the Exchange Act. No prior inability to convert this Note pursuant to this paragraph shall have any effect on the applicability of the provisions of this paragraph with respect to any subsequent determination of convertibility. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 3.4 to the extent necessary to correct this paragraph (or any portion of this paragraph) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended beneficial ownership limitation contained in this Section 3.4 or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitation contained in this paragraph may not be waived and shall apply to a successor holder of this Note.
3.5Redemption Automatic Conversion.  In the event that a Redemption Automatic Conversion shall occur pursuant to Section 8.1(c)(iii) upon the occurrence of an Automatic Conversion Event, then, for the purposes of effecting the conversion of the applicable Company Optional Redemption Amount into shares of Common Shares in respect of such Redemption Automatic Conversion, such conversion shall be consummated in the manner set forth in this Section 3 as though the Holder had delivered a Conversion Notice under Section 3.3(a)(1) with respect to (x) a Conversion Amount equal to the applicable Company Optional Redemption Amount and (y) a Conversion Date of the Company Optional Redemption Date.  Any such Redemption Automatic Conversion shall otherwise be consummated in the manner, and subject to the provisions and limitations, set forth in this Section 3.
4.Rights Upon and Event of Default.
4.1Event of Default. Unless waived in writing by the Holder, each of the following events shall constitute an “Event of Default” and each of the events in clauses (i), (j) and (k) below shall constitute a “Bankruptcy Event of Default”:

4.2Notice of an Event of Default: Event of Default Redemption Right. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to this Note or any Other Note, the Company shall within one (1) Business Day of becoming aware of such Event of Default deliver written notice thereof via facsimile or electronic mail and overnight courier (with next day delivery specified) (an “Event of Default Notice”) to the Holder. At any time after the earlier of the Holder’s receipt of an Event of Default Notice and the Holder becoming aware of an Event of Default and ending (such ending date, the “Event of Default Right Expiration Date”) on the twentieth (20th) Trading Day after the later of (x) the date such Event of Default is cured and (y) the Holder’s receipt of an Event of Default Notice that includes (I) a reasonable description of the applicable Event of Default, (II) a certification as to whether, in the opinion of the Company, such Event of Default is capable of being cured and, if applicable, a reasonable description of any existing plans of the Company to cure such Event of Default and (III) a certification as to the date the Event of Default occurred and, if cured on or prior to the date of such Event of Default Notice, the applicable Event of Default Right Expiration Date, the Holder may require the Company to redeem (regardless of whether such Event of Default has been cured on or prior to the Event of Default Right Expiration Date) all or any portion of this Note by delivering written notice thereof (the “Event of Default Redemption Notice”) to the Company, which Event of Default Redemption Notice shall indicate the portion of this Note the Holder is electing to redeem. Each portion of this Note subject to redemption by the Company pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall be redeemed by the Company at a price equal to the greater of (i) the product of (A) the Conversion Amount to be redeemed multiplied by (B) the Redemption Premium as of the date of the Event of Default and (ii) the product of (x) the Redemption Premium as of the date of the Event of Default  multiplied by (y) the product of (A) the Conversion Amount being redeemed multiplied by (B) the quotient determined by dividing (I) the greatest Closing Sale Price of the shares of Common Shares during the period beginning on the date immediately preceding such Event of Default and ending on the date the Company makes the entire payment required to be made under this Section 4.2 by (II) the Conversion Price then in effect (the “Event of Default Redemption Price”). Redemptions required by this Section 4.2 shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 11. To the extent redemptions required by this Section 4.2 are deemed or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prepayments of this Note by the Company, such redemptions shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.2, but subject to Section 3.4, until the Event of Default Redemption Price (together with any Late Charges thereon) is satisfied in full, the Conversion Amount submitted for redemption under this Section 4.2 (together with any Late Charges thereon) may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into Common Shares pursuant to the terms of Section 3. In the event of the Company’s redemption of any portion of this Note under this Section 4.2, the Holder’s damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties’ inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for the Holder. Accordingly, any redemption premium due under this Section 4.2 is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a reasonable estimate of the Holder’s actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty. Any redemption upon an Event of Default shall not constitute an election of remedies by the Holder, and all other rights and remedies of the Holder shall be preserved.

4.3Mandatory Redemption upon Bankruptcy Event of Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, and notwithstanding any conversion that is then required or in process, upon any Bankruptcy Event of Default, whether occurring prior to or following the Maturity Date, the Company shall immediately pay to the Holder an amount in cash representing (i) all outstanding Principal, accrued and unpaid Interest, and accrued and unpaid Late Charges on such Principal and Interest, multiplied by (ii) the Redemption Premium as of the date of the Bankruptcy Event of Default, in addition to any and all other amounts due hereunder, without the requirement for any notice or demand or other action by the Holder or any other person or entity; provided that the Holder may, in its sole discretion, waive such right to receive payment upon a Bankruptcy Event of Default, in whole or in part, and any such waiver shall not affect any other rights of the Holder hereunder, including any other rights in respect of such Bankruptcy Event of Default, any right to conversion, and any right to payment of the Event of Default Redemption Price or any other Redemption Price, as applicable.
5.Fundamental Transactions; Change of Control.
5.1Fundamental Transactions.
(a)Restrictions. The Company shall not enter into or be party to a Fundamental Transaction unless: either (i) the Company is the surviving Person; or (ii) the Successor Entity (if other than the Company) assumes in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Note and the other Transaction Documents as provided in Section 5.1(b).
(b)Assumption.  To satisfy clause (ii) of Section 5.1(a), (i) the Successor Entity shall assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Note and the other Transaction Documents pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder prior to such Fundamental Transaction, including agreements to deliver to each holder of Notes in exchange for such Notes a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to the Notes, including, without limitation, having a principal amount and interest rate equal to the principal amounts then outstanding and the interest rates of the Notes, respectively, held by such holder, having similar conversion rights as the Notes and having similar ranking and security to the Notes, and reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Company (or the Successor Entity, as applicable) and (ii) the Successor Entity (including its Parent Entity) is a publicly traded corporation whose Common Shares is quoted on or listed for trading on an Eligible Market. Upon the occurrence of any 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 Note and the other Transaction Documents 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 Note and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein.
(c)Confirmation. Upon consummation of a Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall deliver to the Holder confirmation that there shall be issued upon conversion or redemption of this Note at any time after the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, in lieu of the shares of Common Shares (or other securities, cash, assets or other property) issuable upon the conversion or redemption of the Notes prior to

11‌

682109329v2


such Fundamental Transaction, such shares of the publicly traded Common Shares (or their equivalent) of the Successor Entity (including its Parent Entity) which the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of such Fundamental Transaction had this Note been converted immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitations on the conversion of this Note), as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this Note.
(d)Waiver.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holder may elect, at its sole option, by delivery of written notice to the Company to waive this Section 5.1 to permit the Fundamental Transaction without the assumption of this Note.
(e)Applicability.  The provisions of this Section 5 shall apply similarly and equally to successive Fundamental Transactions and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the conversion of this Note.
5.2Notice of a Change of Control; Redemption Right. No sooner than twenty (20) Trading Days nor later than ten (10) Trading Days prior to the consummation of a Change of Control (the “Change of Control Date”), but not prior to the public announcement of such Change of Control, the Company shall deliver written notice thereof via facsimile or electronic mail and overnight courier to the Holder (a “Change of Control Notice”). At any time during the period beginning after the Holder’s receipt of a Change of Control Notice or the Holder becoming aware of a Change of Control if a Change of Control Notice is not delivered to the Holder in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence (as applicable) and ending on the later of ten (10) Trading Days after (A) consummation of such Change of Control or (B) the date of receipt of such Change of Control Notice, the Holder may require the Company to, or the Company may on its own volition,  redeem all or any portion of this Note by delivering written notice thereof (“Change of Control Redemption Notice”) to the Company or Holder, as applicable which Change of Control Redemption Notice shall indicate the Conversion Amount the Holder or Company, as applicable, is electing to redeem. The portion of this Note subject to redemption pursuant to this Section 5.2 shall be redeemed by the Company in cash at a price (the “Change of Control Redemption Price”) equal to the greatest of (i) the product of (w) the Redemption Premium as of the date of the date of the Change of Control multiplied by (y) the Conversion Amount being redeemed, (ii) the product of (x) the Redemption Premium as of the date of the Change of Control multiplied by (y) the product of (A) the Conversion Amount being redeemed multiplied by (B) the quotient determined by dividing (I) the greatest Closing Sale Price of the shares of Common Shares during the period beginning on the date immediately preceding the earlier to occur of (1) the consummation of the applicable Change of Control and (2) the public announcement of such Change of Control and ending on the date the Holder delivers the Change of Control Redemption Notice by (II) the Conversion Price then in effect and (iii) the product of (y) the Redemption Premium as of the date of the Change of Control multiplied by (z) the product of (A) the Conversion Amount being redeemed multiplied by (B) the quotient of (I) the aggregate cash consideration plus the aggregate cash value of any non-cash consideration per share of Common Shares to be paid to the holders of the shares of Common Shares upon consummation of such Change of Control (any such non-cash consideration constituting publicly-traded securities shall be valued at the highest of the Closing Sale Price of such securities as of the Trading Day immediately prior to the consummation of such Change of Control, the Closing Sale Price of such securities on the Trading Day immediately following the public announcement of such proposed Change of Control and the Closing Sale Price of such securities on the Trading Day immediately prior to the public announcement of such proposed Change of Control) divided by (II) the Conversion Price then in effect (the “Change of Control Redemption Price”). Redemptions required by this Section 5.2 shall be made in

12‌

682109329v2


accordance with the provisions of Section 11 and shall have priority to payments to shareholders in connection with such Change of Control. To the extent redemptions required by this Section 5.2 are deemed or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prepayments of this Note by the Company, such redemptions shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.2, but subject to Section 3.4, until the Change of Control Redemption Price (together with any Late Charges thereon) is paid in full, the Conversion Amount submitted for redemption under this Section 5.2 (together with any Late Charges thereon) may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into Common Shares pursuant to Section 3. In the event of the Company’s redemption of any portion of this Note under this Section 5.2, the Holder’s damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties’ inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for the Holder. Accordingly, any redemption premium due under this Section 5.2 is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a reasonable estimate of the Holder’s actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty.
6.Issuances of Purchase Rights and Other Corporate Events.
6.1Purchase Rights. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 7 below, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase shares, stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to all or substantially all of the record holders of any class of Common Shares (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Shares acquirable upon complete conversion of this Note (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the convertibility of this Note) immediately prior to the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Shares are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to the extent of the Maximum Percentage (and shall not be entitled to beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Shares as a result of such Purchase Right (and beneficial ownership) to the extent of any such excess) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance (and, if such Purchase Right has an expiration date, maturity date or other similar provision, such term shall be extended by such number of days held in abeyance, if applicable) for the benefit of the Holder until such time or times, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, at which time or times the Holder shall be granted such right (and any Purchase Right granted, issued or sold on such initial Purchase Right or on any subsequent Purchase Right held similarly in abeyance (and, if such Purchase Right has an expiration date, maturity date or other similar provision, such term shall be extended by such number of days held in abeyance, if applicable)) to the same extent as if there had been no such limitation).
6.2Other Corporate Events. In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the consummation of any Fundamental Transaction pursuant to which holders of shares of Common Shares are entitled to receive securities or other assets with respect to or in exchange for shares of Common Shares (a “Corporate Event”), the Company shall make appropriate provision to ensure that the Holder will thereafter have the right to receive upon a conversion of this Note, at the Holder’s option (i) in addition to the shares of Common Shares receivable upon such conversion, such securities or other assets to which the Holder would have

13‌

682109329v2


been entitled with respect to such shares of Common Shares had such shares of Common Shares been held by the Holder upon the consummation of such Corporate Event (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the convertibility of this Note) or (ii) in lieu of the shares of Common Shares otherwise receivable upon such conversion, such securities or other assets received by the holders of shares of Common Shares in connection with the consummation of such Corporate Event in such amounts as the Holder would have been entitled to receive had this Note initially been issued with conversion rights for the form of such consideration (as opposed to shares of Common Shares) at a conversion rate for such consideration commensurate with the Conversion Rate. Provision made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be in a form and substance satisfactory to the Holder. The provisions of this Section 6.2 shall apply similarly and equally to successive Corporate Events and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the conversion or redemption of this Note.
7.Adjustments to the Conversion Price.
7.1Adjustment of Conversion Price upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Shares or Share Dividend.  If the Company issues solely shares of Common Shares as a dividend or distribution on all or substantially all shares of the Common Shares, or if the Company effects a share split or a share combination of the Common Shares (in each case excluding an issuance solely pursuant to a Fundamental Transaction or other Corporate Event, as to which the provisions set forth in Sections 5 and 6 will apply), then the Conversion Price will be adjusted based on the following formula:

Where:

CP0=the Conversion Price in effect immediately before the open of business on the ex-dividend date for such dividend or distribution, or immediately before the open of business on the effective date of such share split or share combination, as applicable

CP1=the Conversion Price in effect immediately after the open of business on such ex-dividend date or the open of business on such effective date, as applicable

OS0=the number of shares of Common Shares outstanding immediately before the open of business on such ex-dividend date or effective date, as applicable

OS1=the number of shares of Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination

For the avoidance of doubt, pursuant to the definition of CP1 above, any adjustment to the Conversion Price made pursuant to this Section 7.1 will become effective immediately after the open of business on such ex-dividend date or the open of business on such effective date, as applicable. If any dividend, distribution, share split or share combination of the type described in this Section 7.1 is declared or announced, but not so paid or made, then the Conversion Price, if previously adjusted, will be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors of the

14‌

682109329v2


Company determines not to pay such dividend or distribution or to effect such share split or share combination, to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect had such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination not been declared or announced.

7.2Rights, Options and Warrants.  If the Company distributes, to all or substantially all holders of Common Shares, rights, options or warrants entitling such holders, for a period of not more than sixty (60) calendar days after the record date of such distribution, to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Shares at a price per share that is less than the average of the Closing Sale Prices per share of Common Shares for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately before the date such distribution is publicly announced, then the Conversion Price will be decreased based on the following formula:

Where:

CP0=the Conversion Price in effect immediately before the open of business on the ex-dividend date for such distribution

CP1=the Conversion Price in effect immediately after the open of business on such ex-dividend date

OS=the number of shares of Common Shares outstanding immediately before the open of business on such ex-dividend date

X=the total number of shares of Common Shares issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants

Y=a number of shares of Common Shares obtained by dividing (x) the aggregate amount payable to exercise all such rights, options or warrants distributed by the Company by (y) the average of the Closing Sale Prices per share of Common Shares for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately before the date such distribution is announced

For the avoidance of doubt, any adjustment to the Conversion Price made pursuant to this Section 7.2 will be made successively whenever any such rights, options or warrants are issued and, pursuant to the definition of CP1 above, will become effective immediately after the open of business on the ex-dividend date for the applicable distribution. To the extent that shares of Common Shares are not delivered after the expiration of such rights, options or warrants (including as a result of such rights, options or warrants not being exercised), the Conversion Price, if previously adjusted, will be readjusted effective as of such expiration date to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect had the decrease to the Conversion Price for such distribution been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Shares actually delivered upon exercise of such rights, option or warrants. To the extent such rights, options or warrants are not so distributed, the Conversion Price will be readjusted effective as of the date the Board of Directors of the Company determines not to distribute such rights, options or warrants, to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect had the ex-dividend date for the distribution of such rights, options or warrants not occurred.  For purposes of this Section 7.2, in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle holders of Common Shares to subscribe for or purchase

15‌

682109329v2


shares of Common Shares at a price per share that is less than the average of the Closing Sale Prices per share of Common Shares for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately before the date of the distribution of such rights, options or warrants is announced, and in determining the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, there will be taken into account any consideration the Company receives for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise thereof, with the value of such consideration, if not cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company.

7.3Voluntary Adjustment by Company. The Company may at any time during the term of this Note, with the prior written consent of the Required Holders, reduce the then current Conversion Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors of the Company.
8.Redemptions at the Company’s Election.  
8.1Company Optional Redemption.
(a)At any time after August 19, 2025, so long as no Equity Conditions Failure exists, the Company shall have the right to redeem all, but not less than all, of the Conversion Amount then remaining under this Note (the “Company Optional Redemption Amount”) on the Company Optional Redemption Date (a “Company Optional Redemption”). The portion of this Note subject to redemption pursuant to this Section 8.1 shall be redeemed by the Company in cash at a price (the “Company Optional Redemption Price”) equal to the product of (A) the Redemption Premium as of the Company Optional Redemption Date multiplied by (B) the Conversion Amount being redeemed as of the Company Optional Redemption Date.
(b)The Company may exercise its right to require redemption under this Section 8.1 by delivering a written notice thereof by facsimile or electronic mail and overnight courier to all, but not less than all, of the holders of Notes (the “Company Optional Redemption Notice” and the date all of the holders of Notes received such notice is referred to as the “Company Optional Redemption Notice Date”). The Company may deliver only one Company Optional Redemption Notice hereunder and such Company Optional Redemption Notice shall be irrevocable. The Company Optional Redemption Notice shall (x) state the date on which the Company Optional Redemption shall occur (the “Company Optional Redemption Date”) which date shall not be less than ten (10) Trading Days nor more than twenty (20) Trading Days following the Company Optional Redemption Notice Date, (y) certify that there has been no Equity Conditions Failure and (z) state the aggregate Conversion Amount of the Notes which is being redeemed in such Company Optional Redemption from the Holder and all of the other holders of the Notes pursuant to this Section 8.1 (and analogous provisions under the Other Notes) on the Company Optional Redemption Date.
(c)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) if no Equity Conditions Failure has occurred as of the Company Optional Redemption Notice Date but an Equity Conditions Failure occurs at any time prior to the Company Optional Redemption Date, (A) the Company shall provide the Holder a subsequent notice to that effect, and (B) unless the Holder waives the Equity Conditions Failure, the Company Optional Redemption shall be cancelled and the applicable Company Optional Redemption Notice shall be null and void, (ii) at any time prior to the date the Company Optional

16‌

682109329v2


Redemption Price is paid, in full, the Company Optional Redemption Amount may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into shares of Common Shares pursuant to Section 3, and (iii) solely in the event that an Automatic Conversion Event has occurred as of the Company Optional Redemption Date, then, effective on the Company Optional Redemption Date prior to redemption of this Note, the Company Optional Redemption Amount shall automatically, without any further required act of the Holder, be converted into shares of Common Shares in accordance with Section 3.5 (any such conversion of the Company Optional Redemption Amount in shares of Common Shares pursuant to this clause (iii) is herein referred to as a “Redemption Automatic Conversion”).
(d)All Conversion Amounts converted by the Holder after the Company Optional Redemption Notice Date shall reduce the Company Optional Redemption Amount of this Note required to be redeemed on the Company Optional Redemption Date. Redemptions made pursuant to this Section 8.1 shall be made in accordance with Section 11.  
(e)In the event of the Company’s redemption of any portion of this Note under this Section 8.1, the Holder’s damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties’ inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for the Holder. Accordingly, any redemption premium due under this Section 8.1 is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a reasonable estimate of the Holder’s actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall have no right to effect a Company Optional Redemption if any Event of Default has occurred and continuing, but any Event of Default shall have no effect upon the Holder’s right to convert this Note in its discretion.
8.2Pro Rata Redemption Requirement. If the Company elects to cause a Company Optional Redemption of this Note pursuant to Section 8.1, then it must simultaneously take the same action with respect to all of the Other Notes.
9.Noncircumvention. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws or other governing document or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Note, and will at all times in good faith carry out all of the provisions of this Note and take all action as may be required to protect the rights of the Holder of this Note. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other provision of this Note or the other Transaction Documents, the Company (a) shall not increase the par value of any shares of Common Shares receivable upon conversion of this Note above the Conversion Price then in effect, and (b) shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Shares upon the conversion of this Note.
10.Reservation of Authorized Shares.
10.1Reservation. The Company shall initially reserve out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Shares a number of shares of Common Shares for each of this Note and the Other Notes equal to 120% of the Conversion Rate with respect to the Conversion Amount of each such Note as of the Issuance Date. So long as any of this Note and the Other Notes are outstanding, the Company shall take all action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its authorized and

17‌

682109329v2


unissued Common Shares, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of this Note and the Other Notes, the number of shares of Common Shares as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the conversion of all of the Notes then outstanding; provided, that at no time shall the number of shares of Common Shares so reserved be less than the number of shares required to be reserved pursuant hereto (in each case, without regard to any limitations on conversions) (the “Required Reserve Amount”). The initial number of shares of Common Shares reserved for conversions of this Note and the Other Notes and each increase in the number of shares so reserved shall be allocated pro rata among the Holder and the holders of the Other Notes based on the Principal amount of this Note and the Other Notes held by each holder at the Closing (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) or at the time of the increase in the number of reserved shares, as the case may be (the “Authorized Share Allocation”). In the event that a holder shall sell or otherwise transfer this Note, or a portion thereof, or any of such holder’s Other Notes, each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such holder’s Authorized Share Allocation.
10.2Insufficient Authorized Shares.
(a)If at any time while any of the Notes remain outstanding the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved shares of Common Shares to satisfy its obligation to have reserved for issuance upon conversion of the outstanding Notes at least a number of shares of Common Shares equal to the Required Reserve Amount (an “Authorized Share Failure”), then the Company shall promptly take all action necessary to increase the Company’s authorized shares of Common Shares to an amount sufficient to allow the Company to reserve the Required Reserve Amount for the Notes then outstanding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, as soon as practicable after the date of the occurrence of an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall either (x) obtain the written consent of its shareholders for the approval of an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Shares and provide each shareholder with an information statement with respect thereto or (y) file with the SEC a proxy statement for a meeting of its shareholders at which meeting the Company will seek the approval of its shareholders for an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Shares. In connection with such meeting, the Company shall provide each shareholder with a proxy statement and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to solicit its shareholders’ approval of such increase in authorized shares of Common Shares and to cause its Board of Directors to recommend to the shareholders that they approve such proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if during any such time of an Authorized Share Failure, the Company is able to obtain the written consent of a majority of the shares of its issued and outstanding Common Shares to approve the increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Shares, the Company may satisfy this obligation by obtaining such consent and submitting for filing with the SEC an Information Statement on Schedule 14C.
(b)If, upon any conversion of this Note, the Company does not have sufficient authorized shares to deliver in satisfaction of such conversion, then unless the Holder elects to rescind such attempted conversion, the Holder may require the Company, in lieu of issuing Common Shares in connection with such conversion and in full satisfaction of the Company’s obligations with respect to such conversion, to pay to the Holder within three (3) Trading Days of the applicable attempted conversion, cash in an amount equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Common Shares that the Company is unable to deliver pursuant to this Section 10, and (ii) the highest Closing Sale Price of the Common

18‌

682109329v2


Shares during the period beginning on the applicable Conversion Date and ending on the date the Company makes the applicable cash payment.
11.Redemptions.
11.1Mechanics.
(a)If the Holder has submitted an Event of Default Redemption Notice in accordance with Section 4.2, the Company shall deliver the applicable Event of Default Redemption Price to the Holder in cash within five (5) Business Days after the Company’s receipt of the Holder’s Event of Default Redemption Notice (each, an “Event of Default Redemption Date”).
(b)If the Company or Holder  has submitted a Change of Control Redemption Notice in accordance with Section 5.2, the Company shall deliver the applicable Change of Control Redemption Price to the Holder in cash concurrently with the consummation of such Change of Control if such notice is received prior to the consummation of such Change of Control and within two (2) Business Days after the Company’s or Holders’ receipt (as applicable) of such notice otherwise (each, a “Change of Control Redemption Date”).
(c)In the event of a Company Optional Redemption, the Company shall deliver the applicable Company Optional Redemption Price to the Holder in cash on the applicable Company Optional Redemption Date.
(d)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in connection with any redemption hereunder at a time the Holder is entitled to receive a cash payment under any of the other Transaction Documents, at the option of the Holder delivered in writing to the Company, the applicable Redemption Price hereunder shall be increased by the amount of such cash payment owed to the Holder under such other Transaction Document and, upon payment in full or conversion in accordance herewith, shall satisfy the Company’s payment obligation under such other Transaction Document.
(e)In the event of a redemption of less than all of the Conversion Amount of this Note, the Company shall promptly cause to be issued and delivered to the Holder a new Note (in accordance with Section 18.4) representing the outstanding Principal which has not been redeemed.
(f)In the event that the Company does not pay the applicable Redemption Price to the Holder within the time period required, at any time thereafter and until the Company pays such unpaid Redemption Price in full, the Holder shall have the option, in lieu of redemption, to require the Company to promptly return to the Holder all or any portion of this Note representing the Conversion Amount that was submitted for redemption and for which the applicable Redemption Price (together with any Late Charges thereon) has not been paid. Upon the Company’s receipt of such notice, (x) the applicable Redemption Notice shall be null and void with respect to such Conversion Amount, and (y) the Company shall immediately return this Note, or issue a new Note (in accordance with Section 18.4), to the Holder; provided, that, notwithstanding the applicable Redemption Notice being deemed null and void and such return or issuance of this Note or a new Note in accordance with the foregoing, a continual Event of Default

19‌

682109329v2


shall thereafter be deemed to have occurred and be continuing until the subsequent repayment or conversion of this Note in full.  Furthermore, the Holder’s delivery of a notice voiding a Redemption Notice and exercise of its rights following such notice shall not affect the Company’s obligations to make any payments of Late Charges which have accrued prior to the date of such notice with respect to the Conversion Amount subject to such notice.
11.2Redemption by Other Holders. Upon the Company’s receipt of notice from any of the holders of the Other Notes for redemption or repayment as a result of an event or occurrence substantially similar to the events or occurrences described in Section 4 or Section 5.2 (each, an “Other Redemption Notice”), the Company shall immediately, but no later than two (2) Business Days after its receipt thereof, forward to the Holder by facsimile or electronic mail a copy of such notice. If the Company receives a Redemption Notice and one or more Other Redemption Notices, during the seven (7) Business Day period beginning on and including the date which is two (2) Business Days prior to the Company’s receipt of the Holder’s applicable Redemption Notice and ending on and including the date which is five (5) Business Days after the Company’s receipt of the Holder’s applicable Redemption Notice and the Company is unable to redeem all principal, interest and other amounts designated in such Redemption Notice and such Other Redemption Notices received during such seven (7) Business Day period, then the Company shall redeem a pro rata amount from each holder of the Notes (including the Holder) based on the principal amount of the Notes submitted for redemption pursuant to such Redemption Notice and such Other Redemption Notices received by the Company during such seven (7) Business Day period.
12.Voting Rights. The Holder shall have no voting rights as the holder of this Note, except as required by law and as expressly provided in this Note.
13.Covenants.  Until all of the Notes have been converted, redeemed or otherwise satisfied, in full, in accordance with their terms:
13.1Rank. All payments due under this Note (a) shall rank pari passu with all Other Notes, any Senior Secured Convertible Notes issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement prior to the Issuance Date that are referred to in the Securities Purchase Agreement as the First Closing Notes, and any Senior Secured Convertible Notes issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement following the Issuance Date that are referred to in the Securities Purchase Agreement as the Third Closing Notes or Fourth Closing Notes and (b) shall be senior to all other Indebtedness of the Company and its Subsidiaries.
13.2Incurrence of Indebtedness.

13.4Redemption and Dividends. The Company shall not, and the Company shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to not, directly or indirectly, redeem, repurchase or declare or pay any dividend or distribution on any of its shares of capital stock (any of the foregoing, a “Restricted Payment”), other than (i) Restricted Payments made by any Subsidiary to the Company or any other Subsidiary of the Company, (ii) any dividend payments or other distributions by the Company or any Subsidiary payable solely in shares of capital stock of such Person and (iii) purchases, repurchases, redemptions, defeasances or other acquisitions or retirements of shares of capital stock deemed to occur upon the exercise of share options, warrants or other rights in respect thereof if such share of capital stock represents a portion of the exercise price thereof.
13.5Transfer of Assets. The Company shall not, and the Company shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to not, directly or indirectly, sell, lease, license, assign, transfer, spin-off, split-off, close, convey or otherwise dispose of any material assets or rights of the Company or any Subsidiary owned or hereafter acquired whether in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, other than (i) sales, leases, licenses, assignments, transfers, conveyances and other dispositions of such assets or rights by the Company and its Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business consistent with its past practice, (ii) sales of inventory and product in the ordinary course of business, or (iii) sales or other transfers of assets from the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor to the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor.
13.6Acquisitions.  Without the prior written consent of the Required Holders, the Company shall not, and the Company shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to not, directly or indirectly, acquire all or substantially all of the assets or capital stock of any Person or acquire all or substantially all of the assets of any operating division of any Person (each, an “Acquisition”) if the aggregate consideration payable by the Company and its Subsidiaries in connection with such Acquisition or a series of related Acquisitions (including, without limitation, all cash or equity consideration, all Indebtedness or other liabilities incurred or assumed and the maximum amount of any earn-out or comparable payment obligation in connection therewith) exceeds $500,000.

THIS WARRANT WILL BE VOID AND OF NO VALUE UNLESS EXERCISED WITHIN THE TIME LIMITS PROVIDED HEREIN.

WARRANT TO PURCHASE COMMON SHARES

Company: FENNEC PHARMACEUTICALS INC., a corporation continued under the laws of the Province of British Columbia

Number of Shares: 55,498

Type/Series of Shares: Common Shares

Warrant Price: US$8.11 per Common Share

Issue Date: September 23, 2022

Expiration Date: September 23, 2027, subject to earlier expiration as set forth herein

Securities Purchase Agreement:  This Warrant to Purchase Common Shares (“Warrant”) is issued in connection with that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated August 1, 2022 between Petrichor Opportunities Fund I LP and Fennec Pharmaceuticals Inc. (as amended and/or modified and in effect from time to time, the “SPA”).

THIS WARRANT CERTIFIES THAT, for good and valuable consideration, PETRICHOR OPPORTUNITIES FUND I LP (together with any successor or permitted assignee or transferee of this Warrant or of any shares issued upon exercise hereof, “Holder”) is entitled to purchase the number of fully paid and non-assessable shares (the “Shares”) of the above-stated Type/Series of Shares (the “Common Shares”) in the capital of the above-named company (the “Company”) at the above-stated Warrant Price, all as set forth above and as adjusted pursuant to Section 2 of this Warrant, subject to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Warrant.  

SECTION 1. EXERCISE.

1.1Method of Exercise.  Holder may at any time and from time to time exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, by delivering to the Company (i) the original of this Warrant; (ii) a duly executed Notice of Exercise in substantially the form attached hereto as Appendix 1; and (iii) unless Holder is exercising this Warrant pursuant to a cashless exercise as set forth in Section 1.2, a check, wire transfer of same-day funds (to an account designated by the Company) or other form of payment acceptable to the Company for the aggregate Warrant Price for the Shares being purchased.

5‌

682109329v2


1.2Cashless Exercise.  On any exercise of this Warrant, in lieu of payment of the aggregate Warrant Price in the manner as specified in Section 1.1 above, but otherwise in accordance with the requirements of Section 1.1, Holder may elect to receive Shares equal to the value of this Warrant, or portion hereof as to which this Warrant is being exercised.  Thereupon, the Company shall issue to the Holder such number of fully paid and non-assessable Shares as are computed using the following formula:

X = Y(A-B)/A

where:

X =the number of Shares to be issued to the Holder;

Y =the number of Shares with respect to which this Warrant is being exercised (inclusive of the Shares surrendered to the Company in payment of the aggregate Warrant Price);

A =the fair market value (as determined pursuant to Section 1.3 below) (the “Fair Market Value”) of one Share; and

B =the Warrant Price.

1.3Fair Market Value.  If the Company’s Shares are then traded or quoted on a U.S. or Canadian nationally recognized securities exchange, inter-dealer quotation system or over-the-counter market, including the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) or, failing which, the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) (each, a “Trading Market”), the Fair Market Value of a Share shall be the closing price or last sale price of a Share, expressed in US dollars, reported for the Business Day immediately before the date on which Holder delivers this Warrant together with its Notice of Exercise to the Company.  If the Company’s Shares are not traded in a Trading Market, the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine the Fair Market Value of a Share in its reasonable good faith judgment.

1.4Delivery of Certificate and New Warrant.  Within a reasonable time after Holder exercises this Warrant in the manner set forth in Section 1.1 or 1.2 above, the Company shall deliver to Holder a certificate representing the Shares issued to Holder upon such exercise and, if this Warrant has not been fully exercised and has not expired, a new warrant of like tenor representing the Shares not so acquired.

1.5Replacement of Warrant.  On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form, substance and amount to the Company or, in the case of mutilation, on surrender of this Warrant to the Company for cancellation, the Company shall, within a reasonable time, execute and deliver to Holder, in lieu of this Warrant, a new warrant of like tenor and amount.

1.6Treatment of Warrant Upon Acquisition of Company.

(a)Acquisition.  For the purpose of this Warrant, “Acquisition” means any transaction or series of related transactions involving: (i) the sale, lease, exclusive license, or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; (ii) any merger, amalgamation or consolidation of the Company into or with another person or entity (other than a merger, amalgamation or consolidation effected exclusively to change the Company’s domicile), or any other corporate reorganization, in which the shareholders of the Company in their capacity as such immediately prior to such merger, amalgamation, consolidation or reorganization, own less than a majority of the Company’s (or the surviving or successor entity’s) outstanding voting power immediately after such merger, amalgamation, consolidation or reorganization; or (iii) any sale or other transfer by the shareholders of the Company of shares representing at least a majority of the votes attaching to the Company’s then-total outstanding combined voting equity securities.

(b)Treatment of Warrant at Acquisition.  In the event of an Acquisition in which the consideration to be received by the Company’s shareholders consists solely of cash, solely of Marketable Securities or a combination of cash and Marketable Securities (a “Cash/Public Acquisition”), and the Fair Market Value of one Share as determined in accordance with Section 1.3 above would be greater than the Warrant Price in effect on such date immediately prior to such Cash/Public Acquisition, and Holder has not exercised this Warrant pursuant to Section 1.1 above as to all Shares, then this Warrant shall automatically be

6‌

682109329v2


deemed to be exercised in a Cashless Exercise pursuant to Section 1.2 above as to all Shares effective immediately prior to and contingent upon the consummation of a Cash/Public Acquisition.  In connection with such Cashless Exercise, Holder shall be deemed to have restated each of the representations and warranties in Section 4 of the Warrant as at the date thereof and the Company shall promptly notify the Holder of the number of Shares (or such other securities) issued upon exercise.  In the event of a Cash/Public Acquisition where the Fair Market Value of one Share as determined in accordance with Section 1.3 above would be less than the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such Cash/Public Acquisition, then this Warrant will expire immediately prior to the consummation of such Cash/Public Acquisition.  

(c) Upon the closing of any Acquisition other than a Cash/Public Acquisition, the acquiring, surviving or successor entity shall assume the obligations of this Warrant, and this Warrant shall thereafter be exercisable for the same securities and/or other property as would have been paid for the Shares issuable upon exercise of the unexercised portion of this Warrant as if such Shares were outstanding on and as of the closing of such Acquisition, subject to further adjustment from time to time in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant.

(d) As used in this Warrant, “Marketable Securities” means securities meeting all of the following requirements: (i) the issuer thereof is then subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or similar reporting requirements of applicable securities laws in Canada, and is then current in its filing of all required reports and other information under the Act and the Exchange Act or under such applicable securities laws in Canada; (ii) the class and series of shares or other security of the issuer that would be received by Holder in connection with the Acquisition were Holder to exercise this Warrant on or prior to the closing thereof is then traded in a Trading Market; and (iii) if such Trading Market is a Canada Trading Market, Holder would be able to publicly re-sell, immediately following the closing of such Acquisition, all of the issuer’s shares and/or other securities that would be received by Holder in such Acquisition were Holder to exercise this Warrant in full on or prior to the closing of such Acquisition, or if such Trading Market is a U.S. Trading Market, Holder would be able to publicly re-sell, within six (6) months and one day following the closing of such Acquisition, all of the issuer’s shares and/or other securities that would be received by Holder in such Acquisition were Holder to exercise this Warrant in full on or prior to the closing of such Acquisition.

SECTION 2. ADJUSTMENTS TO THE SHARES AND WARRANT PRICE.

2.1Share Dividends, Splits, Etc.  If the Company declares or pays a dividend or distribution on the outstanding Common Shares payable in Shares or other securities or property (other than cash), then upon exercise of this Warrant, for each Share acquired, Holder shall receive, without additional cost to Holder, the total number and kind of securities and property which Holder would have received had Holder owned the Shares of record as of the date the dividend or distribution occurred.  If the Company subdivides the outstanding Common Shares by reclassification or otherwise into a greater number of shares, the number of Shares purchasable hereunder shall be proportionately increased and the Warrant Price shall be proportionately decreased.  If the outstanding Common Shares are combined or consolidated, by reclassification or otherwise, into a lesser number of shares, the Warrant Price shall be proportionately increased and the number of Shares shall be proportionately decreased.

2.2Reclassification, Exchange, Combinations or Substitution.  Upon any event whereby all of the outstanding Common Shares are reclassified, exchanged, combined, substituted, or replaced for, into, with or by Company securities of a different class and/or series, then from and after the consummation of such event, this Warrant will be exercisable for the number, class and series of Company securities that Holder would have received had the Shares been outstanding on and as of the consummation of such event, and subject to further adjustment thereafter from time to time in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant.  The provisions of this Section 2.2 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, exchanges, combinations substitutions, replacements or other similar events.

2.3No Fractional Share.  No fractional Share shall be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant and the number of Shares to be issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Share.  If a fractional Share interest arises upon any exercise of the Warrant, the Company shall eliminate such fractional Share interest by paying Holder in cash the amount computed by multiplying the fractional interest by (i) the Fair Market Value (as determined in accordance with Section 1.3 above) of a full Share, less (ii) the then-effective Warrant Price.

2.4Notice/Certificate as to Adjustments.  Upon each adjustment of the Warrant Price, class/type and/or number of Shares, the Company, at the Company’s expense, shall notify Holder in writing within a reasonable time setting forth the adjustments to the Warrant Price, class/type and/or number of Shares and facts upon which such

7‌

682109329v2


adjustment is based.  The Company shall, upon written request from Holder, furnish Holder with an officer’s certificate of an authorized officer of the Company, including computations of such adjustment and the Warrant Price, Class and number of Shares in effect upon the date of such adjustment.

SECTION 3. REPRESENTATIONS AND COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY.

3.1Representations and Warranties.  The Company represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Holder that all Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, and all securities, if any, issuable upon conversion of the Common Shares, shall, upon issuance, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and free of any liens and encumbrances except for restrictions on transfer provided for herein or under applicable U.S. and Canadian federal, provincial and state securities laws.  The Company covenants that it shall at all times cause to be reserved and kept available out of its authorized and unissued capital such number of Common Shares and other securities as will be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of this Warrant.

3.2Notice of Certain Events.  If the Company proposes at any time to:

(a) declare any dividend or distribution upon the outstanding shares in the capital of the Company, whether in cash, property, shares, or other securities and whether or not a regular cash dividend;

(b) offer for subscription or sale pro rata to the holders of the outstanding shares any additional shares (of any class or series) in the capital of the Company;

(c) effect any reclassification, exchange, combination, substitution, reorganization or recapitalization of the outstanding Common Shares; or

(d) effect an Acquisition or to liquidate, dissolve or wind up; or

(1) in the case of the matters referred to in (a) and (b) above, at least seven (7) Business Days prior written notice of the earlier to occur of the effective date thereof or the date on which a record will be taken for such dividend, distribution, or subscription rights (and specifying the date on which the holders of outstanding Common Shares will be entitled thereto) or for determining rights to vote, if any; and

(2) in the case of the matters referred to in (c) and (d) above at least seven (7) Business Days prior written notice of the date when the same will take place (and specifying the date on which the holders of outstanding Common Shares will be entitled to exchange their shares for the securities or other property deliverable upon the occurrence of such event and such reasonable information as Holder may reasonably require regarding the treatment of this Warrant in connection with such event giving rise to the notice).
