(i) On the Closing Date, Lender shall advance to Borrowers a term loan (the “Term Loan”) in the original principal amount of Thirty Million Dollars ($30,000,000) (the “Term Loan Commitment”), which shall be evidenced by a Term Note of even date herewith made by Borrowers in favor of Lender in the amount of such Term Loan Commitment.

(ii) Principal of the Term Loan, together with all accrued but unpaid interest, shall be due and payable in full on December 19, 2016 (the “Maturity Date”) or upon the earlier maturity

hereof, whether by acceleration, payment or otherwise; provided, however, that at Lender’s sole discretion, the Maturity Date may be extended for successive additional six (6) month periods upon written request from Borrowers delivered no fewer than 30 days prior to the expiration of the then applicable Maturity Date (any new Maturity Date hereunder shall also be referred to as the “Maturity Date”). In no event shall the Maturity Date extend beyond December 18, 2017.

(iii) Accrued interest shall be paid by Borrowers to Lender monthly, in arrears on the fifth Business Day after the end of each Interest Period.

(iv) Borrowers may from time to time prepay all or a portion of the amounts outstanding under the Term Loan without penalty or premium; provided, however, that with respect to any prepayments made within nine (9) months of the Closing Date (other than those made as a result of a Borrowing Base Deficiency), Borrowers shall pay to Lender a prepayment premium in an amount equal to (x) fifty percent (50%) of the then applicable interest rate determined in accordance with Section 2.3 multiplied by (y) the amount of such prepayment except that in the event Lender invokes its rights under Section 2.3(b) such that interest is accruing on the amounts outstanding under the Term Loan at the rate per annum equal to the sum of the Base Rate plus eight and one-half percent (8.5%), Borrower shall be entitled to make prepayments of all or any amounts outstanding under the Term Loan without any prepayment premium. Each partial prepayment of the Term Loan shall be applied first to the next interest installment that is due under the Term Loan (in the order due) and then the balance shall be applied to principal amounts outstanding under the Term Loan.

(b) Additional Advances.

(i) If requested by Borrowers, Lender may from time to time, in its sole discretion, make Additional Advances to the Borrowers in an aggregate amount not to exceed the Term Loan Maximum Amount, the proceeds of which shall be used solely to post required margin amounts due by Borrowers to Warehouse Lenders or to repurchase Financed Mortgage Loans, in each case pursuant to the Warehouse Facilities, or for such other purpose as agreed to in writing by Lender and Borrower.

(ii) Any such Additional Advance shall be deemed to be an advance under the Term Loan and, if requested by Lender, evidenced by one or more additional Term Notes. In connection with any such Additional Advances, Borrowers’ Chief Financial Officer shall (A) certify to Lender that there is a required margin amount owing under a Warehouse Facility and set forth such amount in its certification, and shall provide Lender with a copy of the documentation evidencing such Warehouse Facility or (B) if the Additional Advance is for another purpose referenced in Section 2.1(b)(i), provide similar certification and documentation to Lender .

(iii) Any request for an Additional Advance shall constitute a certification by Borrowers, as of the date thereof, that:

(A) all conditions to the making of the Term Loan set forth in this Agreement have been satisfied (including, without limitation, the delivery of the Borrowing Base Certificate as required in accordance with Section 2.2 hereof), and shall remain satisfied to the date of such Additional Advance (both before and immediately after giving effect to such Additional Advance);

(B) there is no Default or Event of Default in existence (both before and immediately after giving effect to such Additional Advance); and

(C) the representations and warranties of the Borrowers contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects (both before and immediately after giving effect to such Additional Advance) .

(v) Lender shall fund any Additional Advance directly to the applicable Warehouse Lender for the account of the Borrowers.

(c) Use of Proceeds of Term Loan. In addition to the purposes described in Section 2.1(b)(i) above, the proceeds of the Term Loan shall be used solely: (1) to repay any and all amounts then outstanding under that Master Repurchase Agreement dated December 30, 2014 by and between Macquarie Alpine Inc. and Holdings (2) to repay any and all amounts then outstanding under that certain Credit Agreement dated March 26, 2014 by and between IMC and Wells Fargo Bank National Association, and (3) for general corporate, working capital and other lawful purposes.

2.2 Borrowing Base Certificate; Borrowing Base Deficiency.

(a) On the Closing Date, and thereafter commencing on June 26, 2015, and continuing on the last Business Day of each week, Borrowers shall furnish to Lender a Borrowing Base Certificate as of the Determination Date in the week immediately preceding the week that such Borrowing Base Certificate is furnished.

(b) Upon Lender’s receipt of such Borrowing Base Certificate, Lender shall have two (2) Business Days to accept or reject the same. Except as noted below, at Lender’s sole cost and expense, if Lender rejects the computations set forth in the Borrowing Base Certificate, Lender may engage an independent third party firm to re-compute the Borrowing Base. If and only if the third party determines that Borrowers’ Borrowing Base calculation is incorrect by more than $2,000,000, Borrowers shall pay the costs and expenses of such third party’s computation.

(c) If the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan on any Determination Date exceeds the Borrowing Base as of such Determination Date, the amount of such excess shall be referred to as the “Borrowing Base Deficiency” and Borrowers shall pay Lender the amount of such Borrowing Base Deficiency in full within five (5) Business Days of their knowledge thereof or receipt of written notice from Lender.

(d) Each mandatory prepayment under this Section 2.2 or any other mandatory or optional prepayment under this Agreement shall be in addition to any scheduled interest installments.

2.3 Interest and Fees.

(a) Interest. Subject to clause (b) below, interest shall accrue on the amounts outstanding under the Term Loan at the rate per annum equal to the sum of LIBOR plus eight and one-half percent (8.5%). Any outstanding principal of the Term Loan and (to the fullest extent permitted by law) any other amount payable by any Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document that is not paid in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of Borrowers’ applicable rate of interest for the

amounts outstanding at such time plus two percent (2%) (the “Default Rate”) for the period from and including the due date thereof to but excluding the date the same is paid in full. Additionally, at any time that an Event of Default exists (other than under Section 8(m) herein), all outstanding and unpaid principal amounts of all of the Obligations shall, to the extent permitted by law, bear interest at the Default Rate. Interest payable at the Default Rate shall be payable from time to time on demand.

(b) Illegality; Inability to Determine Rates. If Lender determines that any law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Body has asserted that it is unlawful, for Lender to maintain the Term Loan with an interest rate determined by reference to LIBOR, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon LIBOR, or any Governmental Body has imposed material restrictions on the authority of Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, or if Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market, or if adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining LIBOR for any Interest Period or if LIBOR for any Interest Period does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lender of maintaining the Term Loan, then, during the thirty (30) day period after receipt by Borrowers of written notice thereof by Lender, interest shall accrue on the amounts outstanding under the Term Loan at the rate per annum equal to the sum of the rate set forth in subparagraph (b) of the definition of the term “Base Rate” plus eight and one-half percent (8.5%) and thereafter at the sum of the Base Rate plus eight and one-half percent (8.5%), in each case until Lender notifies Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist.

(c) 360 Day Year. Accrued interest on all outstanding principal under the Term Loan shall be due and payable on the last day of the applicable Interest Period. Interest on the Term Loan shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and shall be assessed for the actual number of days elapsed from the first day of the applicable Interest Period, but excluding the last day of such period.

(d) Origination Fee. On the Closing Date, Borrowers shall pay to Lender an origination fee in an aggregate amount equal to one percent (1%) multiplied by Thirty Million Dollars ($30,000,000); it is understood and agreed that such origination fee shall be netted against the Term Loan amount such that the amount funded by Lender at the Closing Date shall be net of such origination fee.

2.4 Taxes. To the extent permitted by applicable law, all payments hereunder or under the Loan Documents (including any payment of principal, interest, or fees) to, or for the benefit, of any person shall be made by Borrower free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for, or account of, any Taxes now or hereinafter imposed by any taxing authority.

SECTION 3. DEPOSIT ACCOUNT CONTROL AGREEMENTS.

3.1 Establishment of Deposit Account Control Agreements; Deposits in Deposit Accounts. Borrowers shall irrevocably instruct all Warehouse Lenders to deposit all Warehouse Facility Payments directly into the Designated Account pursuant to Standing Wire Instruction Letters, each of which shall be in form and substance identical to or substantially similar to that set forth in Exhibit G. Borrowers shall not revoke or alter any of the instructions provided pursuant to any of the Standing Wire Instruction Letters without the prior written consent of Lender. Without limiting any of the foregoing, if the Designated Account is changed with the prior written consent of Borrowers and Lender, any changed Designated Account shall be established with a commercial bank, a savings bank or a savings and loan association which meets the guidelines set forth by Fannie Mae as an eligible depository institution for custodial accounts. The Designated Account and each other Deposit Account shall be subject to a Deposit Account Control Agreement, each of which shall be in form and substance identical to or substantially similar to that set forth in Exhibit D. As contemplated by the form of the Deposit Account Control Agreement, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrowers shall have access and authorization to withdraw monies as it sees fit from the Designated Account and the other Deposit Accounts and upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the authority to notify those financial institutions holding the Designated Account and the other Deposit Accounts to release monies from the Designated Account and the Deposit Accounts without the consent of Borrowers or any other Person in accordance with the terms of Deposit Account Control Agreement in an amount sufficient to satisfy a Borrower Base Deficiency or to repay the Term Note in whole or in part, all further to Section 9.1.

11.11 Waivers. Any term or provision of this Agreement may be waived, or the time for its performance may be extended, by the party or parties hereto entitled to the benefit thereof. Any such waiver shall be validly and sufficiently authorized for the purposes of this Agreement. The failure of any party hereto to enforce at any time any provision of this Agreement shall not be construed to be a waiver of such provision, nor in any way to affect the validity of this Agreement or any part hereof or the right of any party hereto thereafter to enforce each and every such provision. No waiver of any breach of this Agreement shall be held to constitute a waiver of any other or subsequent breach.

11.12 Limitation of Recourse. No director, officer, employee or Affiliate of any party hereto, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of such party under this Agreement (except to the extent such director, officer, employee or Affiliate has engaged in fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct).

11.14 Lender Not Fiduciary. The relationship between Borrowers and Lender is solely that of debtor and creditor, and Lender has no fiduciary or other special relationship with Borrowers, and no term or condition of any of the Loan Documents shall be construed so as to deem the relationship between Borrowers and Lender to be other than that of debtor and creditor.

11.15 Equitable Relief. Each Borrower recognizes that in the event any Borrower fails to pay, perform, observe, or discharge any or all of the Obligations, any remedy at law may prove to be inadequate relief to Lender. Each Borrower therefore agree that Lender, if Lender so requests, shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages.

11.16 Captions. Section captions used in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction of this Agreement.

This Deposit Account Control Agreement (the “Agreement”), dated as of the date specified on the initial signature page of this Agreement, is entered into by and among , a PLEASE PROVIDE INCORPORATION DETAILS (“Company”), a PLEASE PROVIDE INCORPORATION DETAILS (“Secured Party”) and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Bank”), and sets forth the rights of Secured Party and the obligations of Bank with respect to the deposit accounts of Company at Bank identified at the end of this Agreement as the Collateral Accounts (each hereinafter referred to individually as a “Collateral Account” and collectively as the “Collateral Accounts”). Each account designated as a Collateral Account includes, for purposes of this Agreement, and without the necessity of separately listing subaccount numbers, all subaccounts presently existing or hereafter established for deposit reporting purposes and integrated with the Collateral Account by an arrangement in which deposits made through subaccounts are posted only to the Collateral Account. Each Collateral Account operated as a “Multi-Currency Account” is a deposit account maintained with Bank’s Cayman islands Branch, which may be denominated in foreign currency.

Secured Party represents that it is either (i) a lender who has extended credit to Company and has been granted a security interest in the Collateral Accounts or (ii) such a lender and the agent for a group of such lenders. Company hereby confirms the security interest granted by Company to Secured Party In all of Company’s right, title and interest in and to the Collateral Accounts and all sums now or hereafter on deposit in or payable or withdrawable from the Collateral Accounts (the “Collateral Account Funds”).

Bank, Secured Party and Company each agree that Bank will comply with instructions given to Bank by Secured Party directing disposition of funds in the Collateral Accounts (“Disposition Instructions”) without further consent by Company. Except as otherwise required by law, Bank will not agree with any third party to comply with instructions for disposition of funds in the Collateral Accounts originated by such third party.

Company Access to Collateral Accounts. Notwithstanding the provisions of the “Secured Party Control” section of this Agreement, Secured Party agrees that Company will be allowed access to the Collateral Accounts and Collateral Account Funds until Bank receives, and has had a reasonable opportunity to act on, written notice from Secured Party directing that Company no longer have access to any Collateral Accounts or Collateral Account Funds (an “Access Termination Notice”).

The Warrant Shares shall be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and the Company shall pay all taxes and other governmental charges that may be imposed in respect of the issue or delivery thereof.

4. ADJUSTMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE AND NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES; REDEMPTION RIGHTS. The number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (or any shares of stock or other securities or property receivable or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) and the Purchase Price are subject to adjustment upon occurrence of the following events:

4.1 Adjustment for Stock Splits, Stock Subdivisions or Combinations of Shares. The Purchase Price of this Warrant shall be proportionally decreased and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall be proportionally increased to reflect any stock split or subdivision of the Company’s Common Stock. The Purchase Price of this Warrant shall be proportionally increased and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall be proportionally decreased to reflect any combination of the Company’s Common Stock.

4.2 Adjustment for Dividends or Distributions of Stock or Other Securities or Property. In case the Company shall make or issue, or shall fix a record date for the determination of eligible holders entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution with respect to its Common Stock (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time issuable upon exercise of the Warrant) payable in (a) securities of the Company or (b) assets (excluding cash dividends), then, in each such case, the Registered Holder on exercise hereof at any time after the consummation, effective date or record date of such dividend or other distribution, shall receive, in addition to the Warrant Shares (or such other stock or securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such date, and without the payment of additional consideration therefore, the securities or such other assets of the Company to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such date if such Holder had exercised this Warrant on the date hereof and had thereafter, during the period from the date hereof to and including the date of such exercise, retained such shares and all such additional securities or other assets distributed with respect to such shares as aforesaid during such period giving effect to all adjustments called for by this Section 4.

4.3 Reclassification. If the Company, by reclassification of securities or otherwise, shall change any of the securities as to which purchase rights under this Warrant exist into the same or a different number of securities of any other class or classes, this Warrant shall thereafter represent the right to acquire such number and kind of securities as would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the securities that were subject to the purchase rights under this Warrant immediately prior to such reclassification or other change, and the Purchase Price therefor shall be appropriately adjusted, all subject to further adjustment as provided in this Section 4. No adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section 4.3 upon any conversion or redemption of the Common Stock which is the subject of Section 4.5.

4.4 Adjustment for Capital Reorganization, Merger or Consolidation. In case of any capital reorganization of the capital stock of the Company (other than a combination, reclassification, exchange or subdivision of shares otherwise provided for herein), or any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Company (such sale of assets, an “Asset Sale”) then, and in each such case, as a part of such reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale or transfer, lawful provision shall be made so that the Registered Holder shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant, during the period specified herein and upon payment of the Purchase Price then in effect, the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the successor corporation resulting from such reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale or transfer that a holder of the Warrant Shares deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant would have been entitled to receive in such reorganization, consolidation, merger, sale or transfer if this Warrant had been exercised immediately before such reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale or transfer, all subject to further adjustment as provided in this Section 4. The foregoing provisions of this Section 4.4 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, consolidations, mergers, sales and transfers and to the stock or securities of any other corporation that are at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant. If the per-share consideration payable to the Holder hereof for shares in connection with any such transaction is in a form other than cash or marketable securities, then the value of such consideration shall be determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors. In all events, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors) shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Warrant with respect to the rights and interests of the Registered Holder after the transaction, to the end that the provisions of this Warrant shall be applicable after that event, as near as reasonably may be, in relation to any shares or other property deliverable after that event upon exercise of this Warrant.

4.5 Redemption or Conversion of Common Stock. In case all or any portion of the authorized and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company are redeemed or converted or reclassified into other securities or property pursuant to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation or otherwise, or the Common Stock otherwise ceases to exist, then, in such case, the Registered Holder, upon exercise hereof at any time after the date on which the Common Stock is so redeemed or converted, reclassified or ceases to exist (the “Stock Termination Date”), shall receive, in lieu of the number of Warrant Shares that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the Stock Termination Date, the securities or property that would have been received if this Warrant had been exercised in full and the Common Stock received thereupon had been simultaneously converted immediately prior to the Stock Termination Date, all subject to further adjustment as provided in this Warrant. Additionally, the Purchase Price shall be immediately adjusted to equal the quotient obtained by

dividing (x) the aggregate Purchase Price of the maximum number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant was exercisable immediately prior to the Stock Termination Date by (y) the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after the Stock Termination Date, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.

4.6 Adjustment to the Purchase Price.

(a) Holder shall pay to the Company the Additional Exercise Amount, subject to the Additional Exercise Amount Cap, as described in this Section 4.6.

By way of example only, if this Warrant is exercised on August 1, 2015, the Performance Period will begin on July 1, 2015 and end on June 30, 2016. The Additional Exercise Amount shall be paid by the Holder in cash in the same manner as the initial portion of the Purchase Price was paid or as otherwise agreed to by the parties;

(b) The following terms shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms below:

“Additional Exercise Amount” shall mean an amount in cash equal to Net Income achieved by the Company for the Performance Period, subject to the Additional Exercise Amount Cap.

“Net Income” shall mean the net income for the Company, calculated in accordance with GAAP and consistent with the Company’s methodology of calculating net income as of the date of execution of this Warrant, and excluding the following items: the impact of goodwill or any other similar intangible assets; and any transfer of assets to or from any affiliate of the Company that is not on terms and conditions that would reasonably be expected to be received in an arm’s length transaction with a non-affiliate.

“Additional Exercise Amount Cap” shall mean an amount of cash equal to the difference between (i) the product of (A) the Book Value Per Share of Common Stock, calculated as of the Exercise Date and (B) 1.3, and (ii) the Initial Purchase Price.

(c) The Company shall reach a determination of the amount of the Additional Exercise Amount, if any, due to the Company, and shall submit it, along with a detailed description of the Company’s calculation of such amount, no later than thirty (30) days following the end of the Performance Period. Holder shall have thirty (30) days (the “Objection

Period”) following receipt of the Company’s determination in which to object to the Company’s determination by providing the Holder’s calculation of the Additional Exercise Amount (and the Company hereby agrees to provide to the Holder all information the Holder reasonably requests in order to provide its own calculation of the Additional Exercise Amount). If Holder does not object to the Company’s calculation within the Objection Period, the Holder shall pay to the Company the Additional Exercise Amount within two (2) business days of the expiration of the Objection Period (if not paid earlier).

(d) If the Company and the Holder are unable to reach agreement on the amount of the Additional Exercise Amount, as set forth in this Section 4.6, such amount shall be determined by an independent valuation firm experienced in valuing businesses such as the Company and jointly selected in good faith by the Company and the Holder. Fees and expenses of the valuation firm shall be paid for in equal proportions by the Company and the Holder.

4.7 Certain Redemption and Other Rights

(a) Regulatory Issuance Failure. The Company shall give notice to Holder of a Regulatory Issuance Failure (a “Regulatory Issuance Failure Notice”) within two (2) Business Days of such failure, which shall include a brief description of such failure. Holder shall have the option, but not the obligation, on or within 20 days after the date on which Company shall have delivered a Regulatory Issuance Failure Notice, to demand redemption of this Warrant, in whole or in part, at the Redemption Price by notice to Company as described herein (the date on which the Holder demands redemption being the “Redemption Date”).

(b) Redemption Price Procedures. In the case of a Regulatory Issuance Failure, within twenty (20) days of receipt of the Holder’s notice of redemption referred to in Section 4.7(a), the Company shall give notice to the Holder of the proposed Redemption Price, including a detailed description of the Company’s calculation of such amount,. Holder shall have thirty (30) days (the “Redemption Objection Period”) following receipt of the Company’s notice in which to object to the Company’s determination by providing the Holder’s calculation of the Redemption Price (and the Company hereby agrees to provide to the Holder all information the Holder reasonably requests in order to provide its own calculation of the Redemption Price). If Holder does not object to the Company’s calculation within the Redemption Objection Period, Holder shall be deemed to have agreed to the Redemption Price as submitted by the Company and the Company shall pay to the Holder the Redemption Price within two (2) Business Days of the expiration of the Redemption Objection Period (if not paid earlier). If the Company and the Holder are unable to reach agreement on the amount of the Redemption Price, as set forth in this Section

4.7, such amount shall be determined by an independent valuation firm experienced in valuing businesses such as the Company and jointly selected in good faith by the Company and the Holder. Fees and expenses of the valuation firm shall be paid for in equal proportions by the Company and the Holder.

(c) Cancellation of Warrant. Once purchased, redeemed or otherwise acquired by Company as set forth in this Section 4.7, this Warrant shall thereupon be canceled and retired.

For the avoidance of doubt, a Regulatory Issuance Failure shall not occur if a requisite governmental or regulatory approval applicable directly or indirectly to the Holder, including any such approval predicate on or related to information (financial or otherwise) to be provided by or related to Holder, and which is unrelated in any way whatsoever to the Company and that is required for the Company to issue, or the Holder to receive, Warrant Shares, is not obtained.

5. CERTIFICATE AS TO ADJUSTMENTS. In each case of any adjustment in the Purchase Price, or number or type of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the Chief Financial Officer of the Company shall compute such adjustment in accordance with the terms of this Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based, including a statement of the adjusted Purchase Price. The Company shall promptly send (by facsimile and by either first class mail, postage prepaid or overnight delivery) a copy of each such certificate to the Registered Holder.

6. LOSS OR MUTILATION. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it, and (in the case of mutilation) upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will execute and deliver in lieu thereof a new Warrant of like tenor as the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant.

7. RESERVATION OF COMMON STOCK. The Company hereby covenants that at all times there shall be reserved for issuance and delivery upon exercise of this Warrant such number of Warrant Shares or other shares of capital stock of the Company as are from time to time issuable upon exercise of this Warrant and, from time to time, will take all steps necessary to amend, if necessary, its Articles of Incorporation to provide sufficient reserves of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. All such shares shall be duly authorized, and when issued upon such exercise, shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, free and clear of all liens, security interests, charges and other encumbrances or restrictions on sale and free and clear of all preemptive rights, except encumbrances or restrictions arising under federal or state securities laws. Issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to the Company’s officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for Warrant Shares of upon the exercise of this Warrant.

8. TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Warrant and compliance with all applicable securities laws, this Warrant and all rights hereunder may be transferred to any Registered Holder’s parent, subsidiary or affiliate, or, if the Registered Holder is a partnership, to any partner of such Holder, in whole or in part, on the books of the Company maintained for such purpose at the principal office of the Company referred to above, by the Registered Holder hereof in person, or by duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant properly endorsed and upon payment of any necessary transfer tax or other governmental charge imposed upon such transfer. Upon any permitted partial transfer, the Company will issue and deliver to the Registered Holder a new Warrant or Warrants with respect to the Warrant Shares not so transferred. Each taker and holder of this Warrant, by taking or holding the same, consents and agrees that when this Warrant shall have been so endorsed, the person in possession of this Warrant may be treated by the Company, and all other persons dealing with this Warrant, as the absolute owner hereof for any purpose and as the person entitled to exercise the rights represented hereby, any notice to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that until a transfer of this Warrant is duly registered on the books of the Company, the Company may treat the Registered Holder hereof as the owner for all purposes.

9. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER. The Holder, by acceptance hereof, agrees that, absent an effective registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) covering the disposition or sale of this Warrant or the Warrant Shares issued or issuable upon exercise hereof, as the case may be, and registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws, such Holder will not sell, transfer, pledge, or hypothecate any or all of this Warrant or such Warrant Stock, as the case may be, unless either (i) the Company has received an opinion of counsel, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such registration is not required in connection with such disposition or (ii) the sale of such securities is made pursuant to SEC Rule 144.

10. COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES LAWS. By acceptance of this Warrant, the Holder hereby represents, warrants and covenants that it is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined under Rule 501 of Regulation D, that any shares of stock purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be acquired for investment only and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution thereof; that the Holder has had such opportunity as such Holder has deemed adequate to obtain from representatives of the Company such information as is necessary to permit the Holder to evaluate the merits and risks of its investment in the Company; that the Holder is able to bear the economic risk of holding such shares as may be acquired pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant for an indefinite period; that the Holder understands that the shares of stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant will not be registered under the Securities Act (unless otherwise required pursuant to exercise by the Holder of the registration rights, if any, granted to the Registered Holder) and will be “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144, in its current form, under the Securities Act and that the exemption from registration under Rule 144 will not be available unless the applicable holding periods have been satisfied and other terms and conditions of Rule 144 are complied with; and that all stock certificates representing shares of stock issued to the Holder upon exercise of this Warrant or upon conversion of such shares may have affixed thereto a legend substantially in the following form:

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE. THESE SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY AND RESALE AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED OR RESOLD EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER THE ACT AND THE APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, PURSUANT TO REGISTRATION OR EXEMPTION THEREFROM. INVESTORS SHOULD BE AWARE THAT THEY MAY BE REQUIRED TO BEAR THE FINANCIAL RISKS OF THIS INVESTMENT FOR AN INDEFINITE PERIOD OF TIME. THE ISSUER OF THESE SECURITIES MAY REQUIRE AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER TO THE EFFECT THAT ANY PROPOSED TRANSFER OR RESALE IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

12. NO RIGHTS OR LIABILITIES AS A STOCKHOLDER. This Warrant shall not entitle the Registered Holder to any voting rights or other rights or any liabilities as a stockholder of the Company. In the absence of affirmative action by such Holder to purchase Warrant Shares by exercise of this Warrant, no provisions of this Warrant, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Registered Holder hereof shall cause such Holder hereof to be a stockholder of the Company for any purpose.
