3
Upon the Warrant Agent’s receipt of a Notice of Exercise and instructions to withhold a number of Common Shares pursuant to Section 3.2(B)(ii), the Company shall, as promptly as practicable, determine the Fair Market Value of the Common Shares and provide the Holder with a calculation of the number of Common Shares required to be withheld pursuant to Section 3.2(B)(ii).
Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, an exercise of any portion of this Warrant may, at the election of the Holder, be conditioned upon the consummation of a particular transaction by the Company, in which case, such exercise shall not be deemed to be effective until the consummation of such transaction.
If this Warrant shall have been exercised only in part, the Company shall, within five (5) Business Days of such exercise, deliver to the Holder either (a) a new warrant, substantially identical to this Warrant, dated the date it is issued evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the remainder of the Warrant Interests called for by this Warrant or (b) this Warrant bearing an appropriate notation of such partial exercise but in any case the failure to do so shall not affect the Holder’s rights as a Holder.

4
This Warrant shall expire and no longer be exercisable on the earlier of the fifth (5th) anniversary of the date hereof (as it may have been extended hereunder, the “Expiration Date”) and the termination of this Warrant in accordance with Section 13 hereof; provided that the Expiration Date may be extended at the option of the Holder by successive one-year periods if, as of the Expiration Date absent such an extension, the cultivation, manufacture, distribution, or possession of cannabis remains illegal under U.S. federal law; provided further that in no event may the Expiration Date be extended to a date that is later than the tenth (10th) anniversary of the date hereof.
4. Issuance of Warrant Interests. Upon exercise of the Warrant and receipt by the Company of payment of the Exercise Price or an election for cashless exercise (in accordance with Section 3 of this Warrant), unless the Holder has made a Cash Election, the Company shall, as promptly as practicable, and in any event within five (5) Business Days thereafter, cause the Company’s records to reflect the issuance through book entry of the Warrant Interests in the name of the Holder, and the Company shall promptly provide to the Holder, upon request, a book-entry confirmation of the Warrant Interests acquired. The Company agrees that the Warrant Interests so issued will be deemed to have been issued to the Holder as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant and payment of the Exercise Price (if applicable) are delivered to the Company in accordance with the terms of this Warrant. The Company will at all times keep reserved for issuance upon exercise hereof the aggregate number of Warrant Interests as shall be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in full. The Company will use reasonable best efforts to ensure that the Warrant Interests may be issued without violation of any applicable law or regulation or of any requirement of any securities exchange on which the Warrant Interests are listed or traded.
In addition to any other restrictions or legends required by applicable state securities laws, in the event the Company issues certificates evidencing the Warrants Shares, the certificates shall bear any restrictive legends the Company reasonably determines are required to comply with applicable law.

12. Adjustments and Other Rights. The number of Warrant Interests issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows; provided, that if more than one subsection of this Section 12 is applicable to a single event, the subsection shall be applied that produces the largest adjustment and no single event shall cause an adjustment under more than one subsection of this Section 12 so as to result in duplication:
(A) Splits, Subdivisions, Reclassifications, Combinations; or Issuance of Equity. If the Company shall (i) declare and pay a dividend or make a distribution on its Common Shares, (ii) subdivide or reclassify the outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of Common Shares, (iii) combine or reclassify the outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of Common Shares, or (iv) issue any additional equity (whether by issuance of new securities, stock split, combination, reclassification, reorganization or otherwise and including, but not limited to, any Equity Equivalents), then the number of Warrant Interests issuable upon exercise of this Warrant at the time of the record date for such dividend or distribution or the effective date of such subdivision, combination, reclassification or issuance shall be proportionately adjusted so that the Holder after such date shall be entitled to purchase the same number of Common Shares (on a fully-diluted basis).
8
(B) Other Distributions. In case the Company shall fix a record date for the making of a dividend distribution (whether payable in securities of the Company, cash or other property, or engage in a redemption or repurchase of Common Shares with a similar effect to all holders of its Common Shares) (a “Dividend”) to its holders of Common Shares or other securities, the Holder (or any transferee, upon any transfer of the Warrant permitted hereunder) shall receive simultaneously on the payment date of such Dividend, the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property which the Holder would have been entitled to receive had the Warrant been exercised in full on the date of such Dividend (or, to the extent the Company fixes a record date for such Dividend, on such record date).
(C) Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation or Merger. In the event of any (i) capital reorganization of the Company, (ii) reclassification of the ownership interests of the Company (other than a change in par value or from par value to no par value or from no par value to par value), (iii) consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another Person, (iv) sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to another Person or (v) other similar transactions, in each case which entitles the holders of Common Shares to receive (either directly or upon subsequent liquidation) stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for such Common Shares (any transaction described in clauses (i)-(v) above, a “Whole Company Transaction”), each Warrant shall, immediately after such Whole Company Transaction, remain outstanding and shall thereafter, in lieu of or in addition to (as the case may be) the Common Shares then-exercisable under this Warrant, be exercisable for the kind and number of shares of stock or other securities or assets of the Company or of the successor Person resulting from such transaction to which the Holder would have been entitled upon such Whole Company Transaction if the Holder had exercised this Warrant in full immediately prior to the time of such Whole Company Transaction and acquired the Common Shares then-issuable hereunder as a result of such exercise (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the exercisability of this Warrant); and, in such case, appropriate adjustment (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder) shall be made with respect to the Holder’s rights under this Warrant to insure that the provisions of this Warrant shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as possible, to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant. The provisions of this Section 12(C) shall similarly apply to successive Whole Company Transactions. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Holder, effect any Whole Company Transaction unless:
(i) the Company shall have provided the Holder with at least thirty (30) but no more than ninety (90) days’ written notice of such event; and
(ii) prior to the consummation thereof, the successor Person (if other than the Company) resulting from such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or similar transaction, shall assume, by written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant and reasonably satisfactory to the Holder, the obligation to deliver to the Holder, such shares of stock, securities or assets which, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such Holder shall be entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, with respect to any corporate event or other transaction contemplated by the provisions of this Section 12(C), the Holder shall have the right to elect prior to the consummation of such event or transaction, to exercise in Warrant instead of giving effect to the provisions contained in this Section 12(C) with respect to this Warrant.
9
(D) Certain Events. If any event occurs of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section 12 but not expressly provided for by such provisions, then the Company shall make an appropriate adjustment in the Exercise Price and the number of Common Shares so as to protect the rights of the Holder; provided, that no such adjustment shall increase the Exercise Price above, or decrease the number of Warrant Interests below, such amount as would otherwise be determined pursuant to this Section 12. If the Company shall enter into any transaction for the purpose of avoiding the application of the provisions of this Section 12, the benefits provided by such provisions shall nevertheless apply and be preserved.
(E) Statement Regarding Adjustments. Whenever the Exercise Price or the number of Common Shares into which this Warrant is exercisable shall be adjusted as provided in Section 12, the Company shall forthwith file at the principal office of the Company a statement showing in reasonable detail the method used in arriving at the adjustment and the Exercise Price that shall be in effect and the number of Common Shares into which this Warrant shall be exercisable after such adjustment, and the Company shall also cause a copy of such statement to be sent by mail, first class postage prepaid, to the Holder at the address appearing in the Company’s records.
(F) Notice of Adjustment Event. In the event that the Company shall propose to take any action of the type described in this Section 12, the Company shall give notice to the Holder, which notice shall specify the record date, if any, with respect to any such action and the approximate date on which such action is to take place. Such notice shall also set forth the facts with respect thereto as shall be reasonably necessary to indicate the effect on the Exercise Price and the number, kind or class of shares or other securities or property which shall be deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant. In the case of any action which would require the fixing of a record date, such notice shall be given at least 5 days prior to the date so fixed, and in case of all other action, such notice shall be given at least 5 days prior to the taking of such proposed action, except if it is impracticable to provide such 5 days’ prior notice, then the Company shall provide such notice as soon as it is reasonably able prior to or after the taking of such proposed action.
(G) Proceedings Prior to Any Action Requiring Adjustment. As a condition precedent to the taking of any action which would require an adjustment pursuant to this Section 12, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to take any action which may be necessary in order that the Company may thereafter validly and legally issue as fully paid and nonassessable all Common Shares that the Holder is entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant pursuant to this Section 12.
12. Termination. This Warrant shall automatically terminate without any further action (i) immediately upon payment being made in respect of this Warrant as contemplated by Section 3 in connection with an exercise of this Warrant in full or (ii) upon the Expiration Date (to the extent not extended pursuant to Section 3).
10
13. Reporting Requirements. The Company shall furnish to the Holder the information required to be provided under Section 5.1 of the Financing Agreement (as in effect as of date hereof) within the time periods specified in Section 5.1 of the Financing Agreement (as in effect as of date hereof), whether or not the Financing Agreement remains in effect or has been amended or modified; provided that so long as Holder or its Affiliates remain a party to the Financing Agreement and the applicable provisions in the Financing Agreement have not been amended or modified, delivery of such documents under the Financing Agreement shall be deemed to be delivery under this Agreement.
14. Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and to be performed entirely within such State. Each of the parties hereto agrees (a) to submit to the non-exclusive personal jurisdiction of the state or federal courts in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York, (b) that non-exclusive jurisdiction and venue shall lie in the state or federal courts in the State of New York, and (c) that notice may be served upon such party at the address and in the manner set forth for such party in Section 17 hereof. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each of the parties hereto hereby unconditionally waives trial by jury in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Warrant.
15. Binding Effect; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Warrant shall be binding upon any successors or permitted assigns of the Company and the Holder. This Warrant is for the sole benefit of the Company and the Holder and their respective successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever, under or by reason of this Warrant.
16. Amendments. This Warrant may be amended and the observance of any term of this Warrant may be waived only with the written consent of the Company and the Holder. The Company shall not amend the Company’s certificate of incorporation in a manner that would adversely affect the Holder without the prior written consent of the Holder.
17. Notices. Any notice, request, instruction or other document to be given hereunder by any party to the other will be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given (a) on the date of delivery if delivered personally, or by electronic mail, upon confirmation of receipt, or (b) on the second Business Day following the date of dispatch if delivered by a recognized next day courier service.
