THIS CERTIFIES THAT, in consideration of $100.00 duly paid by or on behalf of [   ] (“Holder”), as registered owner of this Unit Purchase Option, to Intensity Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”), Holder is entitled, at any time or from time to time commencing on the 180th day after the effective date (the “Effective Date”) of the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 (File No.: 333-260565) (the “Registration Statement”) pursuant to which certain units (the “Public Units”), each Public Unit consisting of one share (the “Public Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) and one warrant to purchase one Public Share (the “Public Warrants”), are offered for sale to the public (the “Offering”), and at or before 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Expiration Date”), but not thereafter, to subscribe for, purchase and receive, in whole or in part, a number of shares of Common Stock (the “UPO Shares”) and/or warrants (the “UPO Warrants”) equal to 7.0% of the total number of Public Shares, Public Warrants, Option Shares and Option Warrants sold in the Offering in the same proportion as sold in the Offering. The UPO Shares and UPO Warrants are collectively referred to herein as the “UPO Securities.” Each UPO Warrant is identical to the Public Warrants. If the Expiration Date is a day on which banking institutions are authorized by law to close, then this Unit Purchase Option may be exercised on the next succeeding day which is not such a day in accordance with the terms herein. During the period ending on the Expiration Date, the Company agrees not to take any action that would terminate the Unit Purchase Option. This Unit Purchase Option is initially exercisable at $[___] per UPO Share (or 120% of the public offering price of the Public Shares) and $[___] per UPO Warrant (or 120% of the public offering price of the Public Warrants), as applicable; provided, however, that upon the occurrence of any of the events specified in Section 5 hereof, the rights granted by this Unit Purchase Option, including the exercise price per UPO Security and the number of UPO Securities to be received upon such exercise, shall be adjusted as therein specified. The term “Exercise Price” shall mean the initial exercise price or the adjusted exercise price, depending on the context. This Unit Purchase Option is one of the Unit Purchase Options issued pursuant to (i) Section 1.2.5 of the Underwriting Agreement, dated as of [●], 2022, by and between the Company and Roth Capital Partners, LLC, as the Representative of the several underwriters, if any, named in Schedule I thereto (the “Underwriting Agreement”) and (ii) the Company’s Registration Statement.

 

 

 

 

1. EXERCISE UNIT PURCHASE OPTION.

 

(a) Mechanics of Exercise. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, this Unit Purchase Option may be exercised by the Holder on any day on or after the Exercisability Date, on one or more occasions, in whole or in part (but not as to fractional shares), by delivery of a written notice, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Exercise Notice”) of the Holder’s election to exercise this Unit Purchase Option. No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise form be required. Within two (2) Trading Days of the delivery of such Exercise Notice, if the Holder is not electing a Cashless Exercise (as defined below) pursuant to Section 1(d) of this Unit Purchase Option, the Holder shall pay to the Company an amount equal to the applicable Exercise Price(s) multiplied by the number of UPO Securities to which this Unit Purchase Option is being exercised (the “Aggregate Exercise Price”) in cash or wire transfer of immediately available funds (a “Cash Exercise”). The Holder shall not be required to surrender this Unit Purchase Option in order to effect an exercise hereunder; provided, however, that in the event that this Unit Purchase Option is exercised in full or for the remaining unexercised portion hereof, the Holder shall deliver this Unit Purchase Option to the Company for cancellation within a reasonable time after such exercise. On or before the first Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received the Exercise Notice (the date upon which the Company has received the Exercise Notice, the “Exercise Date”), the Company shall transmit by facsimile or e-mail transmission an acknowledgment of confirmation of receipt of the Exercise Notice to the Holder and the Company’s transfer agent for the Common Stock (the “Transfer Agent”). The Company shall deliver any objection to the Exercise Notice on or before the second Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received the Exercise Notice. On or before the second Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received the Exercise Notice, provided the Aggregate Exercise Price has been received by the Company prior to such Trading Day (the “Share Delivery Date”), the Company shall, (X) provided that the Transfer Agent is participating in The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program (the “FAST Program”) and so long as the certificates therefor are not required to bear a legend regarding restriction on transferability, upon the request of the Holder, credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system, or (Y), if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the FAST Program or if the certificates are required to bear a legend regarding restriction on transferability, issue and dispatch by overnight courier to the address as specified in the Exercise Notice, a certificate, registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of UPO Securities to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise. Upon delivery of the Exercise Notice and payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the UPO Securities with respect to which this Unit Purchase Option has been exercised, irrespective of the date such UPO Securities are credited to the Holder’s DTC account or the date of delivery of the certificates evidencing such UPO Securities, as the case may be. If this Unit Purchase Option is submitted in connection with any exercise pursuant to this Section 1(a) and the number of UPO Securities represented by this Unit Purchase Option submitted for exercise is greater than the number of UPO Securities being acquired upon an exercise, then the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than three Trading Days after any such submission and at its own expense, issue a new Unit Purchase Option (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing the right to purchase the number of UPO Securities purchasable immediately prior to such exercise under this Unit Purchase Option, less the number of UPO Securities with respect to which this Unit Purchase Option has been and/or is exercised. The Company shall pay any and all taxes and other expenses of the Company (including overnight delivery charges) that may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of UPO Securities upon exercise of this Unit Purchase Option; 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 UPO Securities or Unit Purchase Options in a name other than that of the Holder or an affiliate thereof. The Holder shall be responsible for all other tax liability that may arise as a result of holding or transferring this Unit Purchase Option or receiving UPO Securities upon exercise hereof.

 

(b) Exercise Price. For purposes of this Unit Purchase Option, “Exercise Price” means $[●] per UPO Share or $[●] per UPO Warrant, as applicable, subject to adjustment as provided herein.

 

(c) Company’s Failure to Timely Deliver Securities. If the Company shall fail for any reason or for no reason to issue to the Holder within five (5) Business Days of the Exercise Date certificates for the number of UPO Securities to which the Holder is entitled and register such UPO Securities on the Company’s share and warrant register, respectively, or to credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC for such number of UPO Securities to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise of this Unit Purchase Option, and if on or after such Trading Day the Holder purchases, or another Person purchasers on the Holder’s behalf or for the Holder’s account (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock and/or warrants to purchase Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of shares of UPO Securities issuable upon such exercise that the Holder anticipated receiving from the Company (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall, within three (3) Business Days after the Holder’s written request and in the Holder’s discretion, either (i) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock and Public Warrants so purchased (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to deliver such certificate (and to issue such UPO Securities) shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing such UPO Securities and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of shares of Common Stock and the number of Public Warrants, times (B) the Weighted Average Price (as reported by Bloomberg) of the Common Stock and the Public Warrants, respectively, on the date of the event giving rise to the Company’s obligation to deliver such certificates.

(d) Cashless Exercise. In lieu of the payment of the applicable Exercise Price(s) multiplied by the number of UPO Securities for which this Unit Purchase Option is exercisable (and in lieu of being entitled to receive UPO Securities) in the manner required by Section 1(a), the Holder shall have the right (but not the obligation) to convert any exercisable but unexercised portion of this Unit Purchase Option into UPO Securities (the “Conversion Right”) as follows:

 

(A) Upon exercise of the Conversion Right, the Company shall deliver to the Holder (without payment by the Holder of any of the Exercise Price in cash) that number of UPO Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the Value of the portion of the Unit Purchase Option being converted by (y) the Current Market Price of a share of Common Stock.

 

(B) The “Value” of the portion of the Unit Purchase Option being converted shall equal the remainder derived by subtracting (a) (i) the applicable Exercise Price(s) multiplied by (ii) the number of UPO Securities underlying the portion of this Unit Purchase Option being converted, from (b) the Current Market Value of the UPO Securities multiplied by the number of UPO Securities underlying the portion of the Unit Purchase Option being converted.

 

(C) As used herein, the term “Current Market Value” at any date means the remainder derived by subtracting (x) the exercise price of the UPO Warrants multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the UPO Warrants from (y) the Current Market Price of the UPO Shares multiplied by the number of UPO Shares issued upon exercise of this Unit Purchase Option.

 

(D) The “Current Market Price” of a share of Common Stock shall mean (i) if the Common Stock is listed on a national securities exchange or quoted on the OTCQB or OTCQX (or any successor exchange or entity), the closing or last sale price of the Common Stock in the principal trading market for the shares on the last trading day preceding the day in question as reported by the exchange, the OTCQB or OTCQX, as the case may be; (ii) if the Common Stock is not listed on a national securities exchange or quoted on the OTCQB or OTCQX, but is traded in the residual over-the-counter market, the closing bid price for the Common Stock on the last trading day preceding the date in question for which such quotations are reported in the “Pink Sheets” published by OTC Markets Group, Inc. or similar publisher of such quotations; and (iii) if the fair market value of the Common Stock cannot be determined pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, such price as the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine, in good faith.

 

The Cashless Exercise Right may be exercised by the Holder on any business day on or after the Sales Commencement Date and not later than the Expiration Date by delivering the Unit Purchase Option with the duly executed exercise form attached hereto with the cashless exercise section completed to the Company, exercising the Cashless Exercise Right and specifying the total number of UPO Securities the Holder will purchase pursuant to such Cashless Exercise Right.

(e) Rule 144. For purposes of Rule 144(d) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as in effect on the date hereof, assuming the Holder is not an affiliate of the Company, it is intended that the UPO Securities issued in a Cashless Exercise shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the UPO Securities shall be deemed to have commenced, on the Issuance Date.

 

(f) Disputes. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price(s) or the arithmetic calculation of the UPO Securities, the Company shall promptly issue to the Holder the number of UPO Securities that are not disputed.

 

(g) Beneficial Ownership. The Company shall not effect the exercise of this Unit Purchase Option, and the Holder shall not have the right to exercise this Unit Purchase Option, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, such Person (together with such Person’s affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Person and its affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Unit Purchase Option with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, unexercised portion of this Unit Purchase Option beneficially owned by such Person and its affiliates and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company beneficially owned by such Person and its affiliates (including, without limitation, any convertible notes or convertible preferred stock or warrants) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this paragraph, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). For purposes of this Unit Purchase Option, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in the most recent of (1) the Company’s most recent Form 10-K, Form 10-Q, Current Report on Form 8-K or other public filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as the case may be, (2) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (3) any other notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. For any reason at any time, upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within two (2) Business Days confirm to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Unit Purchase Option, by the Holder and its affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. By written notice to the Company, the Holder may from time to time increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% specified in such notice; provided that (i) any such increase will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company, and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 1(g) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended beneficial ownership limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation.

 

2. ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE(S) AND NUMBER OF UPO SECURITIES. The Exercise Price(s) and the number of UPO Securities shall be adjusted from time to time as follows:

 

(a) Voluntary Adjustment by Company. The Company may at any time during the term of this Unit Purchase Option reduce the then current Exercise Price(s) to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors of the Company.

 

(b) Adjustment upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company at any time on or after the Issuance Date subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, scheme, arrangement or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price(s) in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced and the number of UPO Securities will be proportionately increased. If the Company at any time on or after the Issuance Date combines (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, scheme, arrangement or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price(s) in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased and the number of UPO Securities will be proportionately decreased. Any adjustment under this Section 2(b) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

 

4

 

 

(c) Other Events. If any event occurs of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section 2 but not expressly provided for by such provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights or phantom stock rights), then the Company’s Board of Directors will make an appropriate adjustment in the Exercise Price(s) and the number of UPO Securities so as to protect the rights of the Holder; provided that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 2(c) will increase the Exercise Price(s) or decrease the number of UPO Securities as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 2.

 

3. RIGHTS UPON DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS.

 

(a) If the Company, at any time while this Unit Purchase Option is outstanding, shall distribute to all holders of Common Stock (and not to the Holders) evidences of its indebtedness or assets (including cash and cash dividends) or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security other than the Common Stock (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction), then in each such case the Exercise Price(s) shall be adjusted by multiplying the Exercise Price(s) in effect immediately prior to the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the Weighted Average Price determined as of the record date mentioned above, and of which the numerator shall be such Weighted Average Price on such record date less the then per share fair market value at such record date of the portion of such assets or evidence of indebtedness so distributed applicable to one outstanding share of the Common Stock as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith. In either case the adjustments shall be described in a statement provided to the Holder of the portion of assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed or such subscription rights applicable to one share of Common Stock. Such adjustment shall be made whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective immediately after the record date mentioned above.

 

4. PURCHASE RIGHTS; FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTIONS.

 

(a) Purchase Rights. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 2 above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Unit Purchase Option and the underlying UPO Warrants (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Unit Purchase Option) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights.

 

(b) Fundamental Transactions. The Company shall not enter into or be party to a Fundamental Transaction unless the Successor Entity assumes in writing (unless the Company is the Successor Entity) all of the obligations of the Company under this Unit Purchase Option in accordance with the provisions of this Section (4)(b) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders and approved by the Required Holders prior to such Fundamental Transaction, including agreements to deliver to each holder of the UPO Warrants in exchange for such UPO Warrants a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Unit Purchase Option, including, without limitation, an adjusted exercise price equal to the value for the shares of Common Stock reflected by the terms of such Fundamental Transaction, and exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Unit Purchase Option (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Unit Purchase Option) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders. Upon the occurrence of any Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Unit Purchase Option referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Unit Purchase Option with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein. Upon consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall deliver to the Holder confirmation that there shall be issued upon exercise of this Unit Purchase Option at any time after the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, in lieu of the UPO Securities (or other securities, cash, assets or other property) issuable upon the exercise of the Unit Purchase Option prior to such Fundamental Transaction, such shares of the publicly traded common stock or common shares (or its equivalent) of the Successor Entity (including its Parent Entity) which the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of such Fundamental Transaction had this Unit Purchase Option been converted immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this Unit Purchase Option. In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the consummation of any Fundamental Transaction pursuant to which holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive securities or other assets with respect to or in exchange for shares of Common Stock (a “Corporate Event”), the Company shall make appropriate provision to insure that the Holder will thereafter have the right to receive upon an exercise of this Unit Purchase Option at any time after the consummation of the Corporate Event but prior to the Expiration Date, in lieu of UPO Shares (or other securities, cash, assets or other property) purchasable upon the exercise of this Unit Purchase Option prior to such Corporate Event, such shares of stock, securities, cash, assets or any other property whatsoever (including warrants or other purchase or subscription rights) which the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of such Corporate Event had this Unit Purchase Option been exercised immediately prior to such Corporate Event. Provision made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be in a form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders. The provisions of this Section 4(b) shall apply similarly and equally to successive Fundamental Transactions and Corporate Events and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Unit Purchase Option.

 

5

 

 

(c) Applicability to Successive Transactions. The provisions of this Section shall apply similarly and equally to successive Fundamental Transactions and Corporate Events and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Unit Purchase Option.

 

5. NONCIRCUMVENTION. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Unit Purchase Option, and will at all times in good faith comply with all the provisions of this Unit Purchase Option and take all actions consistent with effectuating the purposes of this Unit Purchase Option. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (i) shall not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Unit Purchase Option above the Exercise Price then in effect, (ii) shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Unit Purchase Option, and (iii) shall, so long as this Unit Purchase Option is outstanding, take all action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the exercise of this Unit Purchase Option, 100% of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Unit Purchase Option then outstanding (without regard to any limitations on exercise).

 

6. UNIT PURCHASE OPTION HOLDER NOT DEEMED A STOCKHOLDER. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as a holder of this Unit Purchase Option, shall not be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of share capital of the Company for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Unit Purchase Option be construed to confer upon the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as the Holder of this Unit Purchase Option, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue of stock, reclassification of stock, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise), receive notice of meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise, prior to the issuance to the Holder of the UPO Securities which such Person is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Unit Purchase Option. In addition, nothing contained in this Unit Purchase Option shall be construed as imposing any liabilities on the Holder to purchase any securities (upon exercise of this Unit Purchase Option or otherwise) or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

 

7. REISSUANCE OF UNIT PURCHASE OPTIONS.

 

(a) Transfer of Unit Purchase Option. If this Unit Purchase Option is to be transferred, the Holder shall surrender this Unit Purchase Option to the Company and deliver the completed and executed Assignment Form, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, whereupon the Company will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the Holder a new Unit Purchase Option (in accordance with Section 7(d)), registered as the Holder may request, representing the right to purchase the number of UPO Securities being transferred by the Holder and, if less than the total number of UPO Securities then underlying this Unit Purchase Option is being transferred, a new Unit Purchase Option (in accordance with Section 7(d)) to the Holder representing the right to purchase the number of UPO Securities not being transferred.

 

6

 

 

(b) Lost, Stolen or Mutilated Unit Purchase Option. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Unit Purchase Option, and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of any indemnification undertaking by the Holder to the Company in customary form and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Unit Purchase Option, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Holder a new Unit Purchase Option (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing the right to purchase the UPO Securities then underlying this Unit Purchase Option.

 

(c) Exchangeable for Multiple Unit Purchase Options. This Unit Purchase Option is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder at the principal office of the Company, for a new Unit Purchase Option or Unit Purchase Options (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of UPO Securities then underlying this Unit Purchase Option, and each such new Unit Purchase Option will represent the right to purchase such portion of such UPO Securities as is designated by the Holder at the time of such surrender; provided, however, that no Unit Purchase Options for fractional shares of Common Stock shall be given.

 

(d) Issuance of New Unit Purchase Options. Whenever the Company is required to issue a new Unit Purchase Option pursuant to the terms of this Unit Purchase Option, such new Unit Purchase Option (i) shall be of like tenor with this Unit Purchase Option, (ii) shall represent, as indicated on the face of such new Unit Purchase Option, the right to purchase the UPO Securities then underlying this Unit Purchase Option (or in the case of a new Unit Purchase Option being issued pursuant to Section 7(a) or Section 7(c), the UPO Securities designated by the Holder which, when added to the number UPO Securities underlying the other new Unit Purchase Options issued in connection with such issuance, does not exceed the number of UPO Securities then underlying this Unit Purchase Option), (iii) shall have an issuance date, as indicated on the face of such new Unit Purchase Option which is the same as the Issuance Date, and (iv) shall have the same rights and conditions as this Unit Purchase Option.

 

8. NOTICES. The Company shall provide Holder with prompt written notice of all actions taken pursuant to this Unit Purchase Option. Whenever notice is required to be given under this Unit Purchase Option, unless otherwise provided herein, such notice shall be given in writing, will be mailed (a) if within the domestic United States by first-class registered or certified airmail, or nationally recognized overnight express courier, postage prepaid, or by facsimile or (b) if delivered from outside the United States, by International Federal Express or facsimile, and (c) will be deemed given (i) if delivered by first-class registered or certified mail domestic, three business days after so mailed, (ii) if delivered by nationally recognized overnight carrier, one business day after so mailed, (iii) if delivered by International Federal Express, two business days after so mailed and (iv) if delivered by facsimile, upon electronic confirmation of receipt, and will be delivered and addressed as follows:
