 Warrant No. 2013A-2  Dated: April 30, 2013
                                                             
Global Telecom and Technology, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby certifies that, for value received, PLExUS FUND II, L.P., or its registered assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled to purchase from the Company up to a total of 246,911 shares (the “Maximum Share Amount”, as may be adjusted pursuant to Section 9(f)) of common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Company (each such share, a “Warrant Share” and all such shares, the “Warrant Shares”) at an exercise price equal to $3.306 per share (as adjusted from time to time as provided in Section 9, the “Exercise Price”), at any time and from time to time from and after the date hereof and through and including the tenth anniversary of the date hereof (the “Expiration Date”), and subject to the following terms and conditions.  This Warrant has been issued pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement.
 
1.           Definitions.  In addition to the terms defined elsewhere in this Warrant, capitalized terms that are not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to such terms in Exhibit A attached hereto.
 
2.           Registration of Warrant.  The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the “Warrant Register”), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time.  The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual written notice to the contrary.
 
3.           Registration of Transfers.  This Warrant, or any portion of this Warrant, may not be transferred, pledged or otherwise assigned without the prior written consent of the Company, not to be unreasonably withheld.  The Company shall register the transfer of any portion of this Warrant in the Warrant Register, upon surrender of this Warrant, with the Form of Assignment, attached hereto as Exhibit C, duly completed and signed, to American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC (the “Transfer Agent”) or the Company at its address specified herein.  Upon any such registration or transfer, a new warrant to purchase Common Stock, in substantially the form of this Warrant (any such new warrant, a “New Warrant”), evidencing the portion of this Warrant so transferred shall be issued to the transferee and a New Warrant evidencing the remaining portion of this Warrant not so transferred, if any, shall be issued to the transferring Holder.  The acceptance of the New Warrant by the transferee thereof shall be deemed the acceptance by such transferee of all of the rights and obligations of a holder of a Warrant.
 
4.   Exercise and Duration of Warrant.

 
 

 


 
(a)           This Warrant shall be exercisable by the registered Holder at any time and from time to time on or after the date hereof to and including the Expiration Date.  At 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the Expiration Date, the portion of this Warrant not exercised prior thereto shall be and become void and of no value; provided that, if the Closing Price on the Expiration Date exceeds the Exercise Price on the Expiration Date, then this Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised in full (to the extent not previously exercised) on a “cashless exercise” basis at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the Expiration Date; provided further that, Company shall have no liability to Holder for any losses resulting from any such deemed exercise.
 
(b)           A Holder may exercise this Warrant by delivering to the Company (i) an exercise notice, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Exercise Notice”), appropriately completed and duly signed, and (ii) payment of the Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised (which may take the form of a “cashless exercise” if so indicated in the Exercise Notice and if a “cashless exercise” may occur at such time pursuant to Section 10 below), and the date such items are delivered to the Company (as determined in accordance with the notice provisions hereof) is an “Exercise Date.”  The Holder shall not be required to deliver the original Warrant in order to effect an exercise hereunder.  Execution and delivery of the Exercise Notice shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original Warrant and issuance of a New Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares.
 
5.           Delivery of Warrant Shares.
 
(a)           Upon exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than the second Trading Day after the Exercise Date) issue or cause to be issued and cause to be delivered to, or upon the written order of the Holder and in such name or names as the Holder may designate, a certificate for the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, free of restrictive legends unless a registration statement covering the resale of the Warrant Shares and naming the Holder as a selling stockholder thereunder is not then effective and the Warrant Shares are not freely transferable without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act.  The Holder, or, subject to Section 6, any Person so designated by the Holder to receive Warrant Shares, shall be deemed to have become holder of record of such Warrant Shares as of the Exercise Date.  The Company shall, upon request of the Holder, use its commercially reasonable efforts to deliver Warrant Shares hereunder electronically through the Depository Trust Corporation or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions.
 
(b)           This Warrant is exercisable, either in its entirety or, from time to time, for a portion of the number of Warrant Shares.  Upon surrender of this Warrant following one or more partial exercises, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued, at its expense, a New Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares.
 
(c)           In addition to any other rights available to a Holder, if the Company fails to deliver to the Holder a certificate representing Warrant Shares on the date on which delivery of such certificate is required by this Warrant, such Holder may notify the Company via facsimile, mail or any other means, of its failure to deliver the certificate (a “Delivery Failure Notice”).  If the Company fails to deliver to the Holder a certificate representing Warrant Shares by the second Trading Day after delivery of the Delivery Failure Notice by the Holder and if after such second Trading Day after the delivery of the Delivery Failure Notice, but no later than the fifth Trading Day after the delivery of the Delivery Failure Notice, or if earlier, the delivery of the certificate, the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares that the Holder anticipated receiving from the Company (a “Buy-In”), then in the Holder’s sole discretion, the Company shall within two Trading Days after the Holder’s request delivered within five days of such

purchase, pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including reasonable brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to deliver such certificate (and to issue such Common Stock) shall terminate.
 
(d)           The Company’s obligations to issue and deliver Warrant Shares in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation of law by the Holder or any other Person, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with the issuance of Warrant Shares.  Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
 
6.           Charges, Taxes and Expenses.  Issuance and delivery of certificates for shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax, withholding tax, transfer agent fee or other incidental tax or expense in respect of the issuance of such certificates, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the registration of any certificates for Warrant Shares or Warrants in a name other than that of the Holder or an Affiliate thereof and the Company shall not be required to deliver any Warrant Shares unless such payment, if any, has been made.  The Holder shall be responsible for all other tax liability that may arise as a result of holding or transferring this Warrant or receiving Warrant Shares upon exercise hereof.
 
7.           Replacement of Warrant.  If this Warrant is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation hereof, or in lieu of and substitution for this Warrant, a New Warrant, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction and customary and reasonable indemnity, if requested.  Applicants for a New Warrant under such circumstances shall also comply with such other reasonable regulations and procedures and pay such other reasonable third-party costs as the Company may prescribe.
 
8.           Reservation of Warrant Shares.  The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued and otherwise unreserved Common Stock, solely for the purpose of enabling it to issue Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant as herein provided, the number of Warrant Shares which are then issuable and deliverable upon the exercise of this entire Warrant, free from preemptive rights or any other contingent purchase rights of persons other than the Holder (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 9). The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares so issuable and deliverable shall, upon issuance and the payment of the applicable Exercise Price in accordance with the terms hereof, be duly and validly authorized, issued and fully paid and nonassessable.  The Company will take all such action as may be necessary to assure that such shares of Common Stock may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of any securities exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Common Stock may be listed.
 
9.   Certain Adjustments. The Exercise Price and number of Warrant Shares issuable upon

exercise of this Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 9.
 
(a)           Stock Dividends and Splits.  If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) pays a stock dividend on its Common Stock or otherwise makes a distribution on any class of capital stock that is payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, or (iii) combines outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event.  Any adjustment made pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, and any adjustment pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination.
 
(b)           Pro Rata Distributions.  If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, distributes to holders of Common Stock (i) evidence of its indebtedness, (ii) any security (other than a distribution of Common Stock covered by the preceding paragraph), (iii) rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security, or (iv) any other asset (in each case, “Distributed Property”), then in each such case the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution shall be adjusted (effective on such record date) to equal the product of such Exercise Price times a fraction of which the denominator shall be the average of the Closing Prices for the five Trading Days immediately prior to (but not including) such record date and of which the numerator shall be such average less the then fair market value of the Distributed Property distributed in respect of one outstanding share of Common Stock, as determined by a regionally or nationally recognized appraisal firm, designated by the Company’s board of directors and reasonably acceptable to the Holder (an “Appraiser”).  As an alternative to the foregoing adjustment to the Exercise Price, at the request of the Holder delivered within five days of receipt of notice of its right to such Distributed Property, the Company will deliver to such Holder, within five Trading Days after such request (or, if later, on the effective date of such distribution), the Distributed Property that such Holder would have been entitled to receive in respect of the Warrant Shares for which this Warrant could have been exercised immediately prior to such record date.  If such Distributed Property is not delivered to a Holder pursuant to the preceding sentence, then upon expiration of or any exercise of this Warrant that occurs after such record date, such Holder shall remain entitled to receive, in addition to the Warrant Shares otherwise issuable upon such exercise (if applicable), such Distributed Property, or, at the Company’s reasonable discretion, cash equal to the fair market value of such Distributed Property at the time of such original distribution.
 
(c)           Fundamental Transactions.  If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) the Company effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property, or (iv) the Company effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (other than as a result of a subdivision or combination of shares of Common Stock covered by Section 9(a) above) (in any such case, a “Fundamental Transaction”), then the Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant, the same amount and kind of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction if it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, the holder of the number of Warrant Shares then issuable upon exercise in full of this Warrant (the “Alternate Consideration”). The aggregate Exercise Price for this Warrant will not be
 

 
4

 


 
affected by any such Fundamental Transaction, but the Company shall apportion such aggregate Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration.  If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction (at the time of such Fundamental Transaction).  At the Holder’s request, any successor to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall issue to the Holder a new warrant consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holder’s right to purchase the Alternate Consideration for the aggregate Exercise Price upon exercise thereof.  The terms of any agreement pursuant to which a Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this paragraph (c) and insuring that this Warrant (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction.
 
(d)           Subsequent Equity Sales.
 
(i)           If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, the Company or any Subsidiary issues additional shares of Common Stock or rights, warrants, options or other securities or debt convertible, exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock or otherwise entitling any Person to acquire shares of Common Stock (collectively, “Common Stock Equivalents”) at an effective net price to the Company per share of Common Stock (the “Effective Price”) less than the VWAP for the five Trading Days prior to such issuance (the “Adjustment Price”), then the Exercise Price shall be reduced to equal the product of (A) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents times (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance, plus (2) the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate Effective Price of the Common Stock issued (or deemed to be issued) would purchase at the Adjustment Price, and the denominator of which is the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding or deemed to be outstanding immediately after such issuance.  For purposes of this paragraph, in connection with any issuance of any Common Stock Equivalents, (A) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock potentially issuable at any time upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Common Stock Equivalents (the “Deemed Number”) shall be deemed to be outstanding upon issuance of such Common Stock Equivalents, (B) the Effective Price applicable to such Common Stock shall equal the minimum dollar value of consideration payable to the Company to purchase such Common Stock Equivalents and to convert, exercise or exchange them into Common Stock (net of any discounts, fees, commissions and other expenses), divided by the Deemed Number, and (C) no further adjustment shall be made to the Exercise Price upon the actual issuance of Common Stock upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Common Stock Equivalents.
 
(ii)           If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, the Company or any Subsidiary issues Common Stock Equivalents with an Effective Price or a number of underlying shares that floats or resets or otherwise varies or is subject to adjustment based directly on market prices of the Common Stock (a “Floating Price Security”), then for purposes of applying the preceding paragraph in connection with any subsequent exercise, the Effective Price will be determined separately on each Exercise Date and will be deemed to equal the lowest Effective Price at which any holder of such Floating Price Security is entitled to acquire Common Stock on such Exercise Date (regardless of whether any such holder actually acquires any shares on such date).
 
(iii)   Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment will be made under this
 

 
5

 


 
paragraph (d) in respect of any Excluded Stock.
 
(e)           Number of Warrant Shares.  Simultaneously with any adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section, the number of Warrant Shares that may be purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased or decreased proportionately, so that after such adjustment the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder for the increased or decreased number of Warrant Shares shall be the same as the aggregate Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment.
 
(f)           Special Adjustment to Maximum Share Amount.  The Maximum Share Amount is subject to downward adjustment (i) as a result of the Common Stock financings for capital-raising purposes (including conversions of existing indebtedness to Common Stock) consummated by the Company in March 2013 (collectively, the “March Financing”), and (ii) in the event the Company consummates additional Common Stock financings for capital-raising purposes on or prior to the 60th day after the date hereof (each a “Qualifying Financing”, and together with each other Qualifying Financing, the “Qualifying Financings”).  In the event one or more Qualifying Financings occur and taking into account the March Financing, the Maximum Share Amount shall be adjusted downward (rounded to the nearest whole share) by the factor corresponding to the amount of the aggregate proceeds received by the Company from the March Financing and the Qualifying Financings (in each case, net of expenses), as follows:
 

 
X = (0.2647)*Y*Z
where:
 
 
X = the adjusted Maximum Share Amount
   
 
Y = the number of Fully Diluted Shares after giving effect to the Qualifying Financings
   
 
Z = the applicable factor as set forth in the below table

(g)           Calculations.  All calculations under this Section 9 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as applicable.  The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any given time shall not include shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company, and the disposition of any such shares shall be considered an issue or sale of Common Stock.

(h)           Notice of Adjustments.  Upon the occurrence of each adjustment pursuant to this Section 9, the Company at its expense will promptly compute such adjustment in accordance with the terms of this Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment, including a statement of the adjusted Exercise Price and adjusted number or type of Warrant Shares or other securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (as applicable), describing the transactions giving rise to such adjustments and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based.  Upon written request, the Company will promptly deliver a copy of each such certificate to the Holder and to the Company’s Transfer Agent.
 
(i)           Notice of Corporate Events.  If the Company (i) declares a dividend or any other distribution of cash, securities or other property in respect of its Common Stock, including without limitation any granting of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any capital stock of the Company or any Subsidiary, (ii) authorizes or approves, enters into any agreement contemplating or solicits stockholder approval for any Fundamental Transaction or (iii) authorizes the voluntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then the Company shall deliver to the Holder a notice describing the material terms and conditions of such transaction, at least 20 days prior to the applicable record or effective date on which a Person would need to hold Common Stock in order to participate in or vote with respect to such transaction, and the Company will take all steps reasonably necessary in order to insure that the Holder is given the practical opportunity to exercise this Warrant prior to such time so as to participate in or vote with respect to such transaction; provided, however, that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be described in such notice.
 
10.   Payment of Exercise Price.  In its sole discretion, the Holder shall pay the Exercise Price in immediately available funds or through a “cashless exercise,” in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares determined as follows:
 
 
X = Y [(A-B)/A]
where:
 
 
X = the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder.
   
 
Y = the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is being exercised.
   
 
A = the VWAP for the five Trading Days immediately prior to the Exercise Date.
   
 
B = the Exercise Price.

For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a cashless exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant was originally issued in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement.
 
11.   Limitation on Exercise.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of shares of Common Stock that may be acquired by the Holder upon any exercise of this Warrant (or otherwise in respect hereof) shall be limited to the extent necessary to insure that, following such exercise (or other issuance), the total number of shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by such Holder and its Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, does not exceed 4.999% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of
 

 
7

 


 
Common Stock (including for such purpose the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise).  For such purposes, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.  Each delivery of an Exercise Notice hereunder will constitute a representation by the Holder that it has evaluated the limitation set forth in this paragraph and determined that issuance of the full number of Warrant Shares requested in such Exercise Notice is permitted under this paragraph.  The Company’s obligation to issue shares of Common Stock in excess of the limitation referred to in this Section shall be suspended (and shall not terminate or expire notwithstanding any contrary provisions hereof) until such time, if any, as such shares of Common Stock may be issued in compliance with such limitation (but not beyond the Expiration Date).  By written notice to the Company, the Holder may waive the provisions of this Section 11 or increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage specified in such notice, but any such waiver or increase will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company.
 
12.   Put Rights.
 
(a)           In addition and not in limitation of the Holder’s rights pursuant to Section 9(c), at any time following (i) the repayment of the Notes prior to the Maturity Date, (ii) an Event of Default (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) that continues uncured (if at such time any portion of the Notes remains outstanding), or (iii) the Maturity Date (each a “Put Trigger Event” and the date of the occurrence of a Put Trigger Event, the “Put Trigger Date”), the Holder shall have the right, but not the obligation, upon five (5) Trading Days’ prior written notice to the Company, to require the Company to purchase this Warrant or the Holder’s Warrant Shares for a purchase price in cash equal to the product of (i) the greater of (A) the Closing Price on the Put Trigger Date and (B) the Common Equity Value Per Share on the Put Trigger Date, less in each instance the Exercise Price in the case of a purchase of all or any unexercised portion of this Warrant (the amount determined by the foregoing (i), the “Per-Share Target Price”); multiplied by (ii) the number of Warrant Shares covered by the unexercised portion hereof or to be sold hereunder (such product, the “Target Price”); provided, however, that the rights provided to the Holder shall not be exercisable in the event that (x) the Closing Price is greater than the Per-Share Target Price on each of the forty-five (45) Trading Days prior to the Put Trigger Date, and (y) the Common Stock is listed on an Eligible Market from and after the Put Trigger Date and the nature of the Put Triggering Event does not foreclose the continued listing of the Company’s Shares.  The Per-Share Target Price and Target Price shall in all cases be determined without giving effect to any deductions for (x) liquidity considerations, (y) minority shareholder status, or (z) any liquidation or other preference or any right of redemption in favor of any other equity securities of the Company.
 
(b)           In the event a Put Triggering Event occurs and the Company is unable to purchase this Warrant or Warrant Shares in cash pursuant to the terms of Section 12(a) (including without limitation a failure of the Company to obtain any necessary waivers pursuant to the terms of any Indebtedness), the Company shall issue a note, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (a “Put Note”), with a principal face amount equal to the Target Price.
 
13.   Fractional Shares.  The Company shall not be required to issue or cause to be issued fractional Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant.  If any fraction of a Warrant Share would, except for the provisions of this Section 13, be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the number of Warrant Shares to be issued will be rounded up to the nearest whole share.
 
14.   Notices.  Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries hereunder (including without limitation any Exercise Notice) shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective on the earliest of (i) the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via email or facsimile at the email address or facsimile number, as applicable, specified in this Section prior to 5:00 p.m. New York City time on a Trading Day, (ii) the next Trading Day after the date of transmission, if such notice

15.   Warrant Agent.  The Company shall serve as warrant agent under this Warrant.  Upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Holder, the Company may appoint a new warrant agent.  Any corporation into which the Company or any new warrant agent may be merged or any corporation resulting from any consolidation to which the Company or any new warrant agent shall be a party or any corporation to which the Company or any new warrant agent transfers substantially all of its corporate trust or shareholders services business shall be a successor warrant agent under this Warrant without any further act.  Any such successor warrant agent shall promptly cause notice of its succession as warrant agent to be mailed (by first class mail, postage prepaid) to the Holder at the Holder's last address as shown on the Warrant Register.
 
16.   Certain Representations.  The Company has all requisite power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Warrant, and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.  The execution, delivery and performance of this Warrant and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Company, its board of directors and stockholders.  This Warrant, upon execution and delivery, are the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforceability of creditors’ rights in general or by general principles of equity.

(b)           The Company will not, by amendment of its governing documents or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, 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 Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder against impairment.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (i) will not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor on such exercise, (ii) will take all such action as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares on the exercise of this Warrant, and (iii) will not close its shareholder books or records in any manner which interferes with the timely exercise of this Warrant.
