WARRANT TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK

November 28, 2023

 

This certifies that, for value received, Tempus Labs, Inc., with a principal office at the address set forth on the signature page hereto, or such person’s or entity’s permitted assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled to subscribe for and purchase from Personalis, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), up to 4,609,400 shares of Common Stock (“Exercise Shares”) at the Exercise Price (each subject to adjustment as provided herein); provided, however, that the total aggregate number of shares issuable under this Warrant (subject to adjustment as provided herein) and the Second Warrant (as defined in the Commercialization Agreement (as defined below)) shall be reduced on a share-for-share basis by any other shares of Common Stock that the Holder acquires directly from the Company (excluding any shares acquired pursuant to exercise of this Warrant or the Second Warrant) and such reduction of shares shall be pro rata between this Warrant and the Second Warrant (rounded for each to the nearest whole share) based on the number of shares then underlying each warrant. For example, if the Holder acquires 1,000,000 shares directly from the Company and immediately prior to such acquisition there are 2,000,000 remaining Exercise Shares available for issuance pursuant to a cash exercise of this Warrant and there are 4,609,400 remaining shares available for issuance upon cash exercise of the Second Warrant, then the number of Exercise Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant would be reduced by 302,599 shares and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Second Warrant would be reduced by 697,401 shares.

This Warrant is being issued pursuant to Section 1.d of that certain Commercialization and Reference Laboratory Agreement, by and between the Company and Tempus Labs, Inc., dated as of the Effective Date (as defined therein) (the “Commercialization Agreement”), and is the First Warrant as defined thereunder.

2

 


 

delivery of the following to the Company at its address set forth on the signature page hereto (or at such other address as it may designate by notice in writing to the Holder):
(a)
An original executed copy, or a duly executed facsimile copy or PDF copy submitted by e-mail (or e-mail attachment), of the Notice of Exercise in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (“Notice of Exercise”); and
(b)
Payment of the Exercise Price (which may take the form of a “cashless exercise” if permitted by Section 2.2 below and so indicated in the Notice of Exercise) either by check or wire transfer to an account designated by the Company.

The Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Exercise Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation within three Trading Days of the date on which the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Exercise Shares hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Exercise Shares purchased. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Exercise Shares purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise within one Trading Day of receipt of such notice. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, (i) by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Exercise Shares hereunder, and (ii) by reason of the provisions of the introductory paragraph of this Warrant, the number of Exercise Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.

2.2
Cashless Exercise. If, and only if, at the time of exercise hereof there is no effective registration statement registering, or the prospectus contained therein is not available for the issuance of the Exercise Shares to the Holder (provided, however, the unavailability of the prospectus will not apply to any (i) proposed distribution by the Holder that is not covered by the “Plan of Distribution” section of the prospectus included in the Registration Statement (as defined in Section 3.12) or any supplement thereto or (ii) any suspension of the Registration Statement by the Company pursuant to Section 3.12(b), the basis for which is a circumstance or event caused wholly or in significant part by Holder or any of its Affiliates), then this Warrant may, at Holder’s election, be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” (provided, however, no such cashless exercise will be permitted prior to the 11th Business Day after the SEC notifies the Company (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) that it will not review, or has completed its review of, the Registration Statement, provided the Company has filed the Registration Statement with the SEC within 30 days after the date hereof and uses its commercially reasonable efforts to address any comments by the SEC related to the Registration Statement), in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of Exercise Shares in an exchange of securities effected pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, determined as follows:

X = Y [(A-B)/A]

where:

X” equals the number of Exercise Shares to be issued to the Holder;

“Y” equals the total number of Exercise Shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised;

3

 


 

“A” equals the closing price of the shares of Common Stock (as reported by The Nasdaq Stock Market) as of the Trading Day on the date immediately preceding the Date of Exercise; and

“B” equals the Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Exercise Shares at the time of such exercise.

For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”), it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Exercise Shares issued in a “cashless exercise” transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the Exercise Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant was originally issued (provided that the SEC continues to take the position that such treatment is proper at the time of such exercise).

If Exercise Shares are issued in such a cashless exercise, the Company acknowledges and agrees that, in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, the Exercise Shares shall take on the characteristics of the Warrants being exercised, and the holding period of the Warrants being exercised may be tacked on to the holding period of the Exercise Shares (provided that the SEC continues to take the position that such treatment is proper at the time of such exercise).

2.3
Automatic Net Exercise Upon Change of Control. Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, solely in connection with the closing of a Change of Control prior to the end of the Exercise Period, if the fair market value of one Exercise Share (computed as set forth below in this Section 2.3) is greater than the Exercise Price, this Warrant will be automatically net exercised immediately prior to the closing of the Change of Control and converted into the right to receive the number of Exercise Shares computed using the following formula:

X = Y (A-B)

A

Where X = the number of Exercise Shares to be issued to the Holder

Y = the remaining number of Exercise Shares purchasable under this Warrant (at the date of such calculation)

A = the fair market value of one Exercise Share (at the date of such calculation)

B = Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation)

For purposes of the above calculation, the fair market value of one Exercise Share shall be the value ascribed to the consideration to be paid in respect of one share of the Exercise Shares in the definitive agreement(s) relating to such Change of Control, or if no such value is set forth in the definitive agreements(s) relating to such Change of Control, as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors.

2.4
Delivery of Exercise Shares Upon Exercise. Upon delivery of the Notice of Exercise to the Company and upon payment of the Exercise Price (which may take the form of a “cashless exercise” if permitted by Section 2.2 above and so indicated in the Notice of Exercise) for the Exercise Shares being purchased, the Company shall promptly issue and deliver to the Holder (or its designee) a certificate or evidence of book-entry position with the Transfer Agent (“book-entry position”), as determined by Holder, for the Exercise Shares issuable upon such exercise, such delivery to be made promptly, but in any case within two Trading Days after the Date of Exercise (as defined below). As used herein, a “Date of

4

 


 

Exercise” means the date on which the Holder has delivered to the Company (i) the Notice of Exercise, appropriately completed and duly signed and (ii) payment of the Exercise Price for the Exercise Shares being purchased. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Exercise Shares being purchased have been sold or otherwise transferred by Holder (1) pursuant to a registration statement, Rule 144, or another exemption from the registration requirements, and (2) in compliance with the transfer restrictions set forth in the Commercialization Agreement, and subject to the Holder's delivery to the Company and/or the Transfer Agent of appropriate representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company and/or the Transfer Agent (“Transfer Documents”), the Holder may direct the Company by written notice to have the Exercise Shares credited to the account of Holder’s prime broker with the DTC System as directed by the Holder. Such Exercise Shares shall be delivered to Holder within two Trading Days following the later of (i) the Date of Exercise and (ii) the date the Transfer Documents have been delivered by Holder to the Company and/or the Transfer Agent. The Company shall be responsible for the fees of its Transfer Agent and all DTC fees associated with such issuance.
2.5
Holder’s Exercise Limitations. The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 2 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise as set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, the Holder (together with (i) the Holder’s Affiliates, (ii) any other Persons acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates and (iii) any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would or could be aggregated with the Holder’s for the purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (such Persons, “Attribution Parties”)), would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 2.5, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 2.5 applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 2.5, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (A) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the SEC, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (C) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (the “Reported Outstanding Share Number”). If the Company receives an Notice of Exercise from the Holder at a time when the actual number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is less than the Reported Outstanding Share Number, the Company shall (i) notify the Holder in writing of the number of

5

 


 

shares of Common Stock then outstanding and, to the extent that such Notice of Exercise would otherwise cause the Holder’s beneficial ownership, as determined pursuant to this Section 2.5, to exceed the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, the Holder must notify the Company of a reduced number of Exercise Shares to be purchased pursuant to such Notice of Exercise (the number of shares by which such purchase is reduced, the “Reduction Shares”) and (ii) as soon as reasonably practicable, the Company shall return to the Holder any Exercise Price paid by the Holder for the Reduction Shares. 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 Warrant, by the Holder or its Affiliates or Attribution Parties since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 19.9% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Holder, upon notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 2.5, provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 19.9% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of the Exercise Shares upon exercise of this Warrant held by the Holder and the provisions of this Section 2.5 shall continue to apply. Any increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company. For purposes of clarity, the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms of this Warrant in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation shall not be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Holder for any purpose including for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act or Rule 16a-1(a)(1) promulgated under the Exchange Act. No prior inability to exercise this Warrant pursuant to this paragraph shall have any effect on the applicability of the provisions of this paragraph with respect to any subsequent determination of exercisability. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 2.5 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. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.

The Holder acknowledges that investment in the Securities involves a high degree of risk, and represents that the Holder is able, without materially impairing the Holder’s financial condition, to hold the Securities for an indefinite period of time and to suffer a complete loss of the Holder’s investment.
4.4
Further Limitations on Disposition. Without in any way limiting the representations set forth above, the Holder further agrees not to make any disposition of all or any portion of the Securities (other than exercise of the Warrant) unless and until:
(a)
There is then in effect a registration statement under the Securities Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with such registration statement; or
(b)
The Holder shall have furnished the Company with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such disposition will not require registration under the Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws; provided that no such opinion shall be required for dispositions in compliance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) above, no such registration statement or opinion of counsel shall be necessary for a transfer by the Holder to any Affiliate of the Holder, or a partner (or retired partner) or member (or retired member) of the Holder in accordance with partnership or limited liability company interests, or transfers by gift, will or intestate succession to any spouse or lineal

descendants or ancestors, if all transferees agree in writing to be subject to the terms hereof to the same extent as if the applicable party were the Holder hereunder.

4.5
Accredited Investor Status. The Holder is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501 under the Securities Act.
4.6
Foreign Holder. If the Holder is not a United States person (as defined by Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended), the Holder hereby represents that the Holder it has satisfied itself as to the full observance of the laws of the Holder’s jurisdiction in connection with any invitation to subscribe for the Securities or any use of this Warrant, including (a) the legal requirements within the Holder’s jurisdiction for the purchase of the Securities, (b) any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase, (c) any governmental or other consents that may need to be obtained, and (d) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may be relevant to the purchase, holding, redemption, sale or transfer of the Securities. The Holder’s subscription, payment for and continued beneficial ownership of the Securities will not violate any applicable securities or other laws of the Holder’s jurisdiction.
4.7
Forward-Looking Statements. With respect to any forecasts, projections of results and other forward-looking statements and information provided to the Holder, the Holder acknowledges that such statements were prepared based upon assumptions deemed reasonable by the Company at the time of preparation. There is no assurance that such statements will prove accurate, and the Company has no obligation to update such statements.
5.
Restrictive Legends. The Holder understands and agrees that all certificates evidencing the Exercise Shares may bear the following legend:

(a) “THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATES IN THE UNITED STATES. THESE SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY AND RESALE AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED OR RESOLD EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND THE APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, PURSUANT TO REGISTRATION OR EXEMPTION THEREFROM. THE ISSUER OF THESE SHARES 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 SECURITIES ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.”

(b) “THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS AS SET FORTH IN THAT CERTAIN COMMERCIALIZATION AND REFERENCE LABORATORY AGREEMENT, BY AND BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND TEMPUS LABS, INC., DATED AS OF THE EFFECTIVE DATE (AS DEFINED THEREIN), AS MAY BE AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME, AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE THEREWITH.”

In connection with any sale or other transfer of Exercise Shares that complies with all applicable securities laws and the transfer restrictions in the Commercialization Agreement, and subject to the Company’s and/or the Transfer Agent’s receipt from the Holder of the Transfer Documents, the Company shall, within two (2) Trading Days of any request therefor from the Holder that is accompanied by the Transfer Documents, (A) deliver to the Transfer Agent irrevocable instructions that the Transfer Agent shall make a new, unlegended entry for such book entry position Exercise Shares, and (B) cause its counsel to deliver to the Transfer Agent one or more opinions to the effect that the removal of such legends in such circumstances may be effected under the Securities Act and the terms of the Commercialization Agreement if required by the Transfer Agent to effect the removal of the legend in accordance with the provisions

11

 


 

hereof. Any Exercise Shares subject to legend removal under this paragraph may be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s prime broker with the DTC System as directed by the Holder. The Company shall be responsible for the fees of its Transfer Agent and all DTC fees associated with such issuance.

 

6.
Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Exercise Shares; Fractional Shares.
6.1
Changes in Securities. In the event of changes in the class and/or series of equity securities of the Company comprising the Exercise Shares by reason of stock dividends, splits, recapitalizations, reclassifications, combinations or exchanges of shares, reorganizations, or other similar transactions, the number and class and/or series of Exercise Shares available under this Warrant in the aggregate and the Exercise Price shall be correspondingly adjusted to give the Holder of this Warrant, on exercise for the same aggregate Exercise Price, the total number and class and/or series of shares as the Holder would have owned had this Warrant been exercised prior to the event and had the Holder continued to hold such shares until after the event requiring adjustment. The form of this Warrant need not be changed because of any adjustment in the number of Exercise Shares subject to this Warrant.
6.2
Fractional Shares. No fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant as a consequence of any adjustment pursuant hereto. All Exercise Shares (including fractions) to be issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall be aggregated for purposes of determining whether the exercise would result in the issuance of any fractional share. If, after aggregation, the exercise would result in the issuance of a fractional share, the Company shall, in lieu of issuance of any fractional share, pay the Holder otherwise entitled to such fraction a sum in cash equal to the product resulting from multiplying the then current fair market value of one Exercise Share by such fraction.
7.
No Stockholder Rights; No Settlement in Cash. This Warrant in and of itself shall not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a stockholder of the Company. Without limiting any rights of a Holder to receive Exercise Shares on a “cashless” or net-exercise basis pursuant to Section 2.2 and Section 2.3, in no event shall the Company be required to net cash settle an exercise of this Warrant.
8.
Transfer of Warrant. In addition to any other restrictions on transfer set forth in this Warrant, neither this Warrant nor any interest therein shall be transferred or assigned, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of the Company, and any attempted transfer or assignment without such consent shall be void; provided, however, that this Warrant may be transferred without such consent in compliance with applicable laws and the provisions of the Commercialization Agreement, including Section 1.g thereof. Subject to the foregoing restrictions, applicable laws and the restriction on transfer set forth on the first page of this Warrant, in connection with any transfer of this Warrant, the Holder shall deliver this Warrant and the form of assignment attached hereto as Exhibit B to the Company, and the transferee shall sign an investment representation letter in form and substance satisfactory to the Company.
9.
Lost, Stolen, Mutilated or Destroyed Warrant. If this Warrant is lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed, the Company may, on such terms as to indemnity or otherwise as it may reasonably impose (which shall, in the case of a mutilated Warrant, include the surrender thereof), issue a new Warrant of like denomination and tenor as this Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed. Any such new Warrant shall constitute an original contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the allegedly lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed Warrant shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.
10.
Cumulative Remedies. The rights and remedies provided in this Warrant are cumulative and are not exclusive of, and are in addition to and not in substitution for, any other rights or remedies available at law, in equity or otherwise.

12

 


 

11.
Equitable Relief. Each of the Company and the Holder acknowledges that a breach or threatened breach by such party of any of its obligations under this Warrant would give rise to irreparable harm to the other party hereto for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy and hereby agrees that in the event of a breach or a threatened breach by such party of any such obligations, the other party hereto shall, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies that may be available to it in respect of such breach, be entitled to equitable relief, including a restraining order, an injunction, specific performance and any other relief that may be available from a court of competent jurisdiction.
12.
Notices, etc. All notices required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively given (a) upon personal delivery to the party to be notified, (b) when sent by electronic transmission if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, if not, then on the next Business Day, (c) five days after having been sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or (d) one day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier, specifying next day delivery, with written verification of receipt. All communications shall be sent to each of the Company and the Holder at the address listed on their respective signature pages hereto or at such other address as the Company or Holder may designate by ten days’ advance written notice to the other party.
13.
Successor and Assigns. Subject to compliance with the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Warrant, this Warrant and the rights evidenced hereby shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and the successors of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of the Holder, and such successors and/or permitted assigns of the Holder shall be deemed to be a Holder for all purposes hereunder.
14.
No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Warrant is for the sole benefit of the Company and the Holder and their respective successors and, in the case of the Holder, permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other person any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever, under or by reason of this Warrant.
15.
Headings. The headings in this Warrant are for reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Warrant.
16.
Amendment and Modification; Waiver. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Warrant may only be amended, modified or supplemented by an agreement in writing signed by the Company and the Holder. No waiver by the Company or the Holder of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the party so waiving. No waiver by any party shall operate or be construed as a waiver in respect of any failure, breach or default not expressly identified by such written waiver, whether of a similar or different character, and whether occurring before or after that waiver. No failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any rights, remedy, power or privilege arising from this Warrant shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.
17.
Severability. If any term or provision of this Warrant is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Warrant or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction.
18.
Acceptance. Receipt of this Warrant by the Holder shall constitute acceptance of and agreement to all of the terms and conditions contained herein.
19.
Governing Law. This Warrant and all rights, obligations and liabilities hereunder shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of Delaware as applied to agreements among

13

 


 

Delaware residents, made and to be performed entirely within the State of Delaware without giving effect to conflicts of laws principles.
20.
Counterparts. This Warrant may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same agreement. Counterparts may be delivered via facsimile, electronic mail (including .pdf or any electronic signature complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, Uniform Electronic Transactions Act or other applicable law) or other transmission method and any counterpart so delivered will be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered and be valid and effective for all purposes.
