Each Holder hereby agrees that, upon and subject to the Closing, all of the Issuer’s obligations under the terms and conditions of the Prior Warrant shall be automatically terminated and cancelled in full without any further action required, and that this Section 1(b) shall constitute an instrument of termination and cancellation of the Prior Warrant.

The Holder shall dispose of or cause to be delivered to the Issuer (or its designee), within five (5) trading days after the Closing, the Prior Warrant.
