Delivery of Certificate and New Warrant. Promptly after delivery of this Warrant, the Notice of Exercise and Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares being purchased, the Company shall cause to be executed and delivered to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing the aggregate number of fully-paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise. The stock certificate or certificates for the Warrant Shares so delivered shall be in such denominations as may be specified in the Notice of Exercise and shall be registered in the name of the Holder or, subject to Section 10, such other name or names as shall be designated in the Notice of Exercise.

Section 3.
Transfer.
(a)
Method of Transfer. Subject to Section 10, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable on the books of the Company to be maintained for such purpose, upon surrender of this Warrant at the office of the Company maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 15, together with (a) a duly executed written assignment in substantially the form attached as Exhibit B hereto (the “Assignment Form”), and (b) payment of funds sufficient to pay any stock transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer.

Section 4.
Adjustment of Warrant Shares or Exercise Price. The number of Warrant Shares, and the Exercise Price per Warrant Share, shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 4.
(a)
Stock Dividends, Subdivisions and Combinations. In case at any time or from time to time the Company shall:
(i)
take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend payable in, or other distribution of, Common Stock, or
(ii)
subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares of Common Stock, or
(iii)
combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock,
then the number of Warrant Shares immediately after the happening of any event described in clauses (i) through (iii) above (a “Common Stock Event”) shall be adjusted so as to consist of the number of shares of Common Stock that the Holder would have been entitled to receive had the Holder owned the Warrant Shares of record immediately prior to the happening of such Common Stock Event.
(b)
Merger, Consolidation or Disposition of Assets. In case the Company shall merge or consolidate into another corporation, or shall sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property, assets or business to another corporation, the successor or acquiring corporation shall expressly assume this Warrant and the due and punctual observance and performance of each and every covenant and condition of this Warrant to be performed and observed by the Company and all of the obligations and liabilities hereunder and thereunder, subject to such modification as shall be necessary to provide for adjustments of Warrant Shares which shall be as nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 4. If, pursuant to the terms of such merger, consolidation or disposition, shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation are to be received by or distributed to the holders of Common Stock of the Company, then the Holder of this Warrant shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant, the number of shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation that the Holder would have been entitled to receive had the Holder owned the Warrant Shares of record immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or disposition of assets. If, pursuant to the terms of such merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, any cash, shares of stock or other securities or property of any nature whatsoever (including warrants, options or other subscription or purchase rights) are to be received by or distributed to the holders of Common Stock of the Company in lieu of or in addition to common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation, there shall be either, at the Holder’s option:
(i)
an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares to that number determined by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (x) the numerator of which shall be the Exercise Price at the date of such merger, consolidation or disposition, and (y) the denominator of which shall be the Exercise Price minus the amount of any such cash and the Fair Market Value of any and all such shares of stock, securities or other property that the Holder would have been entitled to receive had the Holder owned one (1) Warrant Share of record immediately prior to the happening of such event, or
(ii)
a distribution to the Holder of such cash, shares of stock or other securities or property that the Holder would have been entitled to receive had the Holder owned the Warrant Shares of record immediately prior to the happening of such event.
(c)
Reclassification. Should the Company’s Common Stock be reclassified into another class or series of capital stock (“Conversion Stock”), then the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall immediately be that number of shares of Conversion Stock equal to the number of shares that the Holder would have been entitled to receive had the Holder owned the Warrant Shares of record immediately prior to such reclassification.
- 5 -
(d)
Qualified IPO. To the extent that 26,879,946 shares (as such shares are presently constituted, subject to proportional adjustment for any stock split or combination or reclassification) (the “Assumed Equity Plan Shares”) exceeds the actual number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock (or options, warrants or rights therefor) that have been issued pursuant to the Company’s equity incentive or benefits plan prior to the occurrence of a Qualified IPO (excluding any such securities that are being issued upon consummation of such Qualified IPO, the “Actual Equity Plan Shares”), then the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be adjusted appropriately such that (excluding, only for the purposes of such calculation, the effects of any other adjustments to the number of Warrant Shares under this Section 4) one Warrant Share represents u pon the Qualified IPO the same proportion of the fully-diluted equity of the Company that such Warrant Share would have represented on the date of issuance of this Warrant had the Actual Equity Plan Shares (rather than the Assumed Equity Plan Shares) been deemed issued on the date of issuance of this Warrant.
(e)
Certain Adjustments of Exercise Price. If the number of Warrant Shares is adjusted pursuant to Section 4(a), Section 4(b), Section 4(c) or Section 4(d), the Exercise Price shall be proportionately increased or decreased, as applicable, as follows: the Exercise Price following the adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares shall equal the Exercise Price prior to such adjustment multiplied by a fraction (i) the numerator of which is the number of Warrant Shares immediately prior to such adjustment and (ii) the denominator of which is the number of Warrant Shares immediately following such adjustment.
(f)
Sale of Shares Below Exercise Price.
(i)
Adjustment Formula. Subject to the provisions of this Section 4(f), if at any time or from time to time after the Commencement Date the Company issues or sells, or is deemed by the provisions of this Section 4(f) to have issued or sold, Additional Shares of Common Stock, otherwise than in connection with a Common Stock Event as provided in Section 4(a), or a recapitalization, reclassification, reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale of assets or other change as provided in Section 4(b) or Section 4(c), for an Effective Price that is less than the Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares in effect immediately prior to such issue or sale (or deemed issue or sale), then, and in each such case, the Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares shall be adjusted, as of the close of business on the date of such issue or sale, to the amount obtained by multiplying such Exercise Price by a fraction:
(A)
the numerator of which shall be the sum of (x) the number of Common Stock Equivalents Outstanding immediately prior to such issue or sale of Additional Shares of Common Stock plus (y) the quotient obtained by dividing the Aggregate Consideration Received by the Company for the total number of Additional Shares of Common Stock so issued and/or sold (and/or deemed so issued and sold) by the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issue or sale; and
(B)
the denominator of which shall be the sum of (x) the number of Common Stock Equivalents Outstanding immediately prior to such issue or sale (or deemed issue or sale) plus (y) the number of Additional Shares of Common Stock so issued or sold (and/or deemed so issued and sold).
(ii)
Deemed Issuances. For the purpose of making any adjustment to the Exercise Price required under this Section 4(f), if the Company issues or sells any Rights or Options or Convertible Securities and if the Effective Price of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Rights or Options and/or the conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities (computed without reference to any additional or similar protective or antidilution clauses and assuming the satisfaction of any conditions to convertibility or exchangeability including, without limitation, the passage of time) is less than the Exercise Price then in effect, then the Company shall be deemed to have issued, at the time of the issuance of such Rights or Options or Convertible Securities, that number of Additional Shares of Common Stock that is equal to the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise or conversion o f such Rights or Options or
- 6 -
Convertible Securities upon their issuance and to have received, as the Aggregate Consideration Received for the issuance of such shares, an amount equal to the total amount of the consideration, if any, received by the Company for the issuance of such Rights or Options or Convertible Securities, plus, in the case of such Rights or Options, the minimum amounts of consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the exercise in full of such Rights or Options, plus, in the case of Convertible Securities, the minimum amounts of consideration, if any, payable to the Company (other than by cancellation of liabilities or obligations evidenced by such Convertible Securities) upon the conversion or exchange thereof; provided that:
(A)
if the minimum amounts of such consideration cannot be ascertained, but are a function of antidilution or similar protective clauses, then the Company shall be deemed to have received the minimum amounts of consideration without reference to such clauses;
(B)
if the minimum amount of consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise of Rights or Options or the conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities is reduced over time or upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of specified events other than by reason of antidilution or similar protective adjustments, then the Effective Price shall be recalculated using the figure to which such minimum amount of consideration is reduced; and
(C)
if the minimum amount of consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise of such Rights or Options or the conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities is subsequently increased, then the Effective Price shall again be recalculated using the increased minimum amount of consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise of such Rights or Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.
No further adjustment of the Exercise Price, as adjusted upon the issuance of such Rights or Options or Convertible Securities, shall be made as a result of the actual issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of any such Rights or Options or the conversion or exchange of any such Convertible Securities. If any such Rights or Options or the conversion rights represented by any such Convertible Securities shall expire without having been fully exercised, then the Exercise Price as adjusted upon the issuance of such Rights or Options or Convertible Securities shall be readjusted to the Exercise Price which would have been in effect had an adjustment been made on the basis that the only shares of Common Stock so issued were the shares of Common Stock, if any, that were actually issued or sold on the exercise of such Rights or Options or rights of conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, and such shares of Common Stock, if any, were issued or sold for the consideration actually received by the Company upon such exercise, plus the consideration, if any, actually received by the Company for the granting of all such Rights or Options, whether or not exercised, plus the consideration received for issuing or selling all such Convertible Securities actually converted or exchanged, plus the consideration, if any, actually received by the Company (other than by cancellation of liabilities or obligations evidenced by such Convertible Securities) upon the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.
(g)
Adjustment is Cumulative. The provisions of this Section 4 shall similarly apply to successive Common Stock Events, mergers, consolidations, dispositions, reclassifications, sales of shares below the Exercise Price or other applicable events.
(h)
No Impairment. The Company shall not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or through a reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issuance or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed under this Warrant by the Company, and shall at all times in good faith assist in carrying out of all the provisions of this Section 4 and in taking all such action as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the Holder’s rights under this Section 4 against impairment.
- 7 -
Section 5.
Notice to the Holder.
(a)

Whenever the number of Warrant Shares, or the Exercise Price shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 4, the Company shall promptly deliver to the Holder a certificate signed by an officer of the Company, setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment and the method by which such adjustment was calculated (including a statement of the Fair Market Value, as determined by the Board of Directors or by appraisal (if applicable), of any evidences of indebtedness, shares of stock, other securities or property or warrants or other subscription or purchase rights referred to in Section 4(b)) and specifying the number of Warrant Shares and (if such adjustment was made pursuant to Section 4(c)) describing the number and kind of any other shares of stock comprising the Warrant Shares, and any change in the Exercise Price thereof, after giving effect to such adjustment or change.
