The Company has established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in 1934 Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the Company and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to the Company, including the Subsidiaries, is made known to the certifying officers by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which the Company’s most recently filed periodic report under the 1934 Act, as the case may be, is being prepared. The Company has established internal control over financial reporting (as defined in 1934 Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP.

The Company presented in its most recently filed periodic report under the 1934 Act the conclusions of the certifying officers about the effectiveness of such internal controls based on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation Date, there have been no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or, to the Company's Knowledge, in other factors that could significantly affect the Company's internal controls.

7.7    Removal of Legends. In connection with any sale or disposition of the Securities by the Investor pursuant to Rule 144 or pursuant to any other exemption under the 1933 Act such that the purchaser acquires freely tradable shares and upon compliance by the Investor with the requirements of this Agreement, the Company shall or, in the case of Common Stock, shall cause the transfer agent for the Common Stock (the “Transfer Agent”) to issue replacement certificates representing the Securities sold or disposed of without restrictive legends. Upon the earlier of (i) registration for resale pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement or (ii) the Conversion Shares or the Warrant Shares, as applicable, becoming freely tradable by the Investor pursuant to Rule 144 the Company shall (A) deliver to the Transfer Agent irrevocable instructions that the Transfer Agent shall issue a certificate representing shares of Common Stock without legends upon receipt by such Transfer Agent of (X) either (1) a customary representation by the Investor that Rule 144 applies to the shares of Common Stock represented thereby or (2) a statement by the Investor that such Investor has sold the shares of Common Stock represented thereby in accordance with the Plan of Distribution contained in the Registration Statement, and (Y) if applicable, the legended certificates for such shares, and (B) cause its counsel to deliver to the Transfer Agent one or more blanket opinions to the effect that the removal of such legends in such circumstances may be effected under the 1933 Act. From the earlier of such dates, upon the Investor’s request, the Company shall promptly cause the Investor’s Securities to be replaced with Securities which do not bear restrictive legends, and Conversion Shares subsequently issued upon the due conversion of the Secured Convertible Notes and Warrant Shares subsequently issued upon due exercise of the Warrants shall not bear such restrictive legends provided the provisions of either clause (i) or clause (ii) above, as applicable, are satisfied with respect thereto. When the Company is required to cause an unlegended Security to be issued as provided herein, if: (1) the unlegended Security is not delivered to the Investor within three (3) Business Days of submission by such Investor of a request for unlegended Securities and, if applicable, the documentation specified above to the Transfer Agent or the Company, as applicable, and (2) prior to the time such unlegended Security is received by the Investor, the Investor, or any third party on behalf of such Investor or for the Investor’s account, purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) another Security to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Investor of such Security (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall pay in cash to the Investor (for costs incurred either directly by such Investor or on behalf of a third party) the amount by which the total purchase price paid for the replacement Security as a result of the Buy-In (including brokerage commissions, if any) exceeds the proceeds received by such Investor as a result of the sale to which such Buy-In relates. The Investor shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Investor in respect of the Buy-In.
7.8    Subsequent Equity Sales; Registration Statements.
(a)    From the date hereof until ninety (90) days after the earlier of (i) the completion of the Offering, or (ii) the Expiration Date, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall issue shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 7.8(a) shall not apply to (i) the issuance of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents upon the conversion or exercise of any securities of the Company or a Subsidiary outstanding on the date hereof, provided that the terms of such security are not amended after the date hereof to decrease the exercise price or increase the Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents receivable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof or (ii) the issuance of any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents pursuant to any Company equity incentive plan approved by the Company’s stockholders and in place as of the date hereof.
(b)    From the date hereof until such time as the Investor holds less than $50,000 of Securities (based on the purchase price paid hereunder), the Company shall be prohibited from effecting or entering into an agreement to effect any Subsequent Financing involving a “Variable Rate Transaction”. The term “Variable Rate Transaction” shall mean a transaction in which the Company issues or sells (i) any debt or equity securities that are convertible into, exchangeable or exercisable for, or include the right to receive additional shares of Common Stock either (A) at a conversion, exercise or exchange rate or other price that is based upon and/or varies with the trading prices of or quotations for the shares of Common Stock at any time after the initial issuance of such debt or equity securities, or (B) with a conversion, exercise or exchange price that is subject to being reset at some future date after the initial issuance of such debt or equity security or upon the occurrence of specified or contingent events directly or indirectly related to the business of the Company or the market for the Common Stock or (ii) enters into any agreement, including, but not limited to, an equity line of credit, whereby the Company may sell securities at a future determined price. For the avoidance of doubt, the issuance of a security which is subject to customary anti-dilution protections, including where the conversion, exercise or exchange price is subject to adjustment as a result of stock splits, reverse stock splits and other similar recapitalization or reclassification events, shall not be deemed to be a “Variable Rate Transaction.”
(c)    The Company shall not, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that no Affiliate of the Company shall, sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the 1933 Act) that will be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities in a manner that would require the registration under the 1933 Act of the sale of the Securities to the Investors, or that will be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities for purposes of the rules and regulations of any trading market such that it would require stockholder approval prior to the closing of such other transaction unless stockholder approval is obtained before the closing of such subsequent transaction.
(d)    The Company shall not, from the date hereof until ninety (90) days after the earlier of (i) the completion of the Offering, or (ii) the Expiration Date, prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the 1933 Act of any of its equity securities, other than any registration statement or post-effective amendment to a registration statement (or supplement thereto) relating to the Company’s employee benefit plans registered on Form S-8 or, in connection with an acquisition, on Form S-4.
7.9    Equal Treatment of Investors. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration is also offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents. For clarification purposes, this provision constitutes a separate right granted to the Investor by the Company and negotiated separately by the Investor, and is intended for the Company to treat the purchasers in the Offering as a class and shall not in any way be construed as the purchasers acting in concert or as a group with respect to the purchase, disposition or voting of Securities or otherwise.
7.10    Increase in Authorized Shares. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to seek the approval of its stockholders, by no later than six months following the earlier of (i) the completion of the Offering, or (ii) the Expiration Date, to amend its Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock to no less than the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the aggregate Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares (the “Share Increase”). No later than the second Business Day after its stockholders approve the Share Increase, the Company shall file with the Secretary of State of Delaware an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation to effect the Share Increase, which amendment shall become effective upon filing. The date on which the Share Increase is effected is referred to as the “Share Increase Date.” At any annual or special meeting of stockholders called for the purpose of seeking stockholder approval for the Share Increase, the Investor shall vote or cause to be voted all shares of Common Stock owned by it and which the Investor has the right to vote at such meeting in favor of the Share Increase.
7.11    Piggyback Registration Rights. The Company shall comply with the piggyback registration rights provisions attached hereto as Exhibit E.
7.12    Management Transition. Promptly following the date hereof, the Company shall implement a transition plan approved by the Company’s Board of Directors to effect a change in the senior management of the Company (consisting of the CEO and CFO positions) within a reasonable period of time following the date hereof.
8.    Survival and Indemnification.
8.1    Survival. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement shall survive any Closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
8.2    Indemnification. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Investor and its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, trustees, members, managers, employees and agents, and their respective successors and assigns, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorney fees and disbursements and other expenses incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim or proceeding, pending or threatened and the costs of enforcement thereof) (collectively, “Losses”) to which such Person may become subject as a result of any breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by or to be performed on the part of the Company under the Transaction Documents, and will reimburse any such Person for all such amounts as they are incurred by such Person.
8.3    Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Any person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification and (ii) permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided that any person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such person unless (a) the indemnifying party has agreed to pay such fees or expenses, or (b) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such person or (c) in the reasonable judgment of any such person, based upon written advice of its counsel, a conflict of interest exists between such person and the indemnifying party with respect to such claims (in which case, if the person notifies the indemnifying party in writing that such person elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such claim on behalf of such person); and provided, further, that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that such failure to give notice shall materially adversely affect the indemnifying party in the defense of any such claim or litigation. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for fees or expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all such indemnified parties. No indemnifying party will, except with the consent of the indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation.

Before the expiration of such 60-day period, the Holder may, in its sole discretion, convert the principal amount of this Note and any accrued but unpaid interest with respect to such portion of this Note to be converted, in whole or in part, on the terms set forth in Section 4 below.
4.    Conversion Rights.
(a)    Prior to the Share Increase Date (as such term is defined in the Purchase Agreements), this Note shall not be convertible. From and after the Share Increase Date and subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this Note, prior to the Stated Maturity Date, the Holder shall have the right, at its option at any time, to convert some or all of the Note into such number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is obtained by: (i) adding (A) the principal amount of this Note to be converted and (B) the amount of any accrued but unpaid interest with respect to such portion of this Note to be converted; and (ii) dividing the result obtained pursuant to clause (i) above by the Conversion Price then in effect. The rights of conversion set forth in this Section 4 shall be exercised by the Holder by giving written notice to the Company that the Holder elects to convert a stated amount of this Note into Common Stock and by surrender of this Note (or, in lieu thereof, by delivery of an appropriate lost security affidavit in the event this Note shall have been lost or destroyed) to the Company at its principal office (or such other office or agency of the Company as the Company may designate by notice in writing to the Holder) at any time on the date set forth in such notice (which date shall not be earlier than the Company’s receipt of such notice), together with a statement of the name or names (with address) in which the certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock shall be issued.
(b)    Promptly after receipt of the written notice referred to in Section 4(a) above and surrender of this Note (or, in lieu thereof, by delivery of an appropriate lost security affidavit in the event this Note shall have been lost or destroyed), but in no event more than three (3) Business Days thereafter, the Company shall issue and deliver, or cause to be issued and delivered, to the Holder, registered in such name or names as the Holder may direct in writing, a certificate or certificates for the number of whole shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of such portion of this Note. To the extent permitted by law, such conversion shall be deemed to have been effected, and the Conversion Price shall be determined, as of the close of business on the date on which such written notice shall have been received by the Company and this Note shall have been surrendered as aforesaid (or, in lieu thereof, an appropriate lost security affidavit has been delivered to the Company), and at such time, the rights of the Holder shall cease with respect to the principal amount of the Notes being converted, and the Person or Persons in whose name or names any certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of the shares represented thereby.
(c)    No fractional shares shall be issued upon any conversion of this Note into Common Stock. If any fractional share of Common Stock would, except for the provisions of the first sentence of this Section 4(c), be delivered upon such conversion, the Company, in lieu of delivering such fractional share, shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash equal to the closing Bid Price of a share of Common Stock on the effective date of conversion times the fractional share of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon such conversion. In case the principal amount of this Note exceeds the principal amount being converted, the Company shall, upon such conversion, execute and deliver to the Holder, at the expense of the Company, a new Note for the principal amount of this Note surrendered which is not to be converted.
(d)    If, at any time or from time to time while this Note is outstanding, the Company issues or sells, or in accordance with this Section 4 is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock (including the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock owned or held by or for the account of the Company, but excluding shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued by the Company in connection with any Excluded Securities for a consideration per share less than a price (the “Applicable Price”) equal to the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issue or sale or deemed issuance or sale (the foregoing a “Dilutive Issuance”), then immediately after such Dilutive Issuance, the Conversion Price then in effect shall be reduced to the lowest price per share at which any share of Common Stock was issued or sold or deemed to be issued or sold.
For purposes of determining the adjusted Conversion Price under this Section 4(d), the following shall be applicable:
(i) If the Company in any manner grants any Options and the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of any such Option or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of any such Option is less than the Applicable Price, then such share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the granting or sale of such Option for such price per share. For purposes of this Section 4(d)(i), the “lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon exercise of such Options or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of any such Option” shall be equal to the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to any one share of Common Stock upon the granting or sale of the Option, upon exercise of the Option and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Security issuable upon exercise of such Option less any consideration paid or payable by the Company with respect to such one share of Common Stock upon the granting or sale of such Option, upon exercise of such Option and upon conversion exercise or exchange of any Convertible Security issuable upon exercise of such Option. No further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such shares of Common Stock or of such Convertible Securities upon the exercise of such Options or upon the actual issuance of such shares of Common Stock upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Securities.
(ii) If the Company in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities and the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof is less than the Applicable Price, then such share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities for such price per share. For the purposes of this Section 4(d)(ii), the “lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof” shall be equal to the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to one share of Common Stock upon the issuance or sale of the Convertible Security and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Security less any consideration paid or payable by the Company with respect to such one share of Common Stock upon the issuance or sale of such Convertible Security and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Security. No further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such shares of Common Stock upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Securities, and if any such issue or sale of such Convertible Securities is made upon exercise of any Options for which adjustment of this Note has been or is to be made pursuant to other provisions of this Section 4(d), no further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made by reason of such issue or sale.
(iii) If the purchase price provided for in any Options, the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issue, conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities, or the rate at which any Convertible Securities are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock increases or decreases at any time, the Conversion Price in effect at the time of such increase or decrease shall be adjusted to the Conversion Price which would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible Securities provided for such increased or decreased purchase price, additional consideration or increased or decreased conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold. For purposes of this Section 4(d)(iii), if the terms of any Option or Convertible Security that was outstanding as of the date of issuance of this Note are increased or decreased in the manner described in the immediately preceding sentence, then such Option or Convertible Security and the shares of Common Stock deemed issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date of such increase or decrease. No adjustment pursuant to this Section 4(d) shall be made if such adjustment would result in an increase of the Conversion Price then in effect.
(iv) In case any Option is issued in connection with the issue or sale of other securities of the Company, together comprising one integrated transaction, (x) the Options will be deemed to have been issued for the Option Value of such Options and (y) the other securities issued or sold in such integrated transaction shall be deemed to have been issued for the difference of (I) the aggregate consideration received by the Company less any consideration paid or payable by the Company pursuant to the terms of such other securities of the Company, less (II) the Option Value. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold for cash, the consideration received therefor will be deemed to be the net amount received by the Company therefor. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of such consideration received by the Company will be the fair value of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by the Company will be the Closing Sale Price of such security on the date of receipt. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued to the owners of the non-surviving entity in connection with any merger in which the Company is the surviving entity, the amount of consideration therefor will be deemed to be the fair value of such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving entity as is attributable to such shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, as the case may be. The fair value of any consideration other than cash or securities will be determined jointly by the Company and the Required Holders. If such parties are unable to reach agreement within ten (10) days after the occurrence of an event requiring valuation (the “Valuation Event”), the fair value of such consideration will be determined within five (5) Trading Days after the tenth (10th) day following the Valuation Event by an independent, reputable appraiser jointly selected by the Company and the Required Holders. The determination of such appraiser shall be final and binding upon all parties absent manifest error and the fees and expenses of such appraiser shall be borne by the Company.
(v) If the Company takes a record of the holders of shares of Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (A) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in shares of Common Stock, Options or in Convertible Securities or (B) to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, then such record date will be deemed to be the date of the issue or sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may be.
(vi) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Section 4(d) to the contrary, if a reduction in the Conversion Price pursuant to Section 4(d) (other than as set forth in this clause (d)(vi)) would require the Company to obtain stockholder approval of the offering contemplated by the Purchase Agreement pursuant to Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5635(d)(2) and such stockholder approval has not been obtained, (i) the Conversion Price shall be reduced to the maximum extent that would not require stockholder approval under such Section, and (ii) the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such stockholder approval as soon as reasonably practicable, including by calling a special meeting of stockholders to vote on such Conversion Price adjustment. In the event that the stockholders do not approve the offering at such meeting, the Company shall promptly call one or more additional special meetings until such time as stockholder approval is obtained.
(e)    [Intentionally omitted.]
(f)    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 Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. 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 Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased. Any adjustment under this Section 4(f) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.
(g)    If any event occurs of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section 4 but not expressly provided for by such provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights or phantom stock rights), then the Board will make an appropriate adjustment in the Conversion Price so as to protect the rights of the Holder; provided that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 4(g) will increase the Conversion Price as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 4.
(h)    An adjustment to the Conversion Price shall become effective immediately after the payment date in the case of each dividend or distribution and immediately after the effective date of each other event which requires an adjustment.
(i)    In the event that, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this Section 4, the Holder shall become entitled to receive any shares of capital stock of the Company other than shares of Common Stock, the number of such other shares so receivable upon conversion of this Note shall be subject thereafter to adjustment from time to time in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions contained in this Note.
(j)    In case at any time:
(i)    the Company shall declare any dividend upon its Common Stock or any other class or series of capital stock of the Company payable in cash or stock or make any other distribution to the holders of its Common Stock or any such other class or series of capital stock;
(ii)    the Company shall offer for subscription pro rata to the holders of its Common Stock or any other class or series of capital stock of the Company any additional shares of stock of any class or other rights; or
(iii)    there shall be any capital reorganization or reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, any acquisition or a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company;
then, in any one or more of said cases, the Company shall give, by delivery in person or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, addressed to the Holder at the address of such Holder as shown on the books of the Company, (a) at least twenty (20) Business Days’ prior written notice of the date on which the books of the Company shall close or a record shall be taken for such dividend, distribution or subscription rights or for determining rights to vote in respect of any event set forth in clause (iii) of this Section 4(j) and (b) in the case of any event set forth in clause (iii) of this Section 4(j), at least 20 Business Days’ prior written notice of the date when the same shall take place. Such notice in accordance with the foregoing clause (a) shall also specify, in the case of any such dividend, distribution or subscription rights, the date on which the holders of Common Stock or such other class or series of capital stock shall be entitled thereto and such notice in accordance with the foregoing clause (b) shall also specify the date on which the holders of Common Stock and such other series or class of capital stock shall be entitled to exchange their Common Stock and other stock for securities or other property deliverable upon consummation of the applicable event set forth in clause (iii) of this Section 4(j).

(k)    Upon any adjustment of the Conversion Price, then and in each such case the Company shall give prompt written notice thereof, by delivery in person or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, addressed to the Holder at the address of such Holder as shown on the books of the Company, which notice shall state the Conversion Price resulting from such adjustment and setting forth in reasonable detail the method upon which such calculation is based.
(l)    From and after the Share Increase Date, the Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon conversion of this Note as herein provided, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall then be issuable upon the conversion of this Note. The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock which shall be so issued shall be duly and validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable, and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and that the Company will from time to time take all such action as may be requisite to assure that the par value per share of the Common Stock is at all times equal to or less than the Conversion Price in effect at the time. The Company shall take all such action as may be necessary to assure that all such shares of Common Stock may be so issued without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirement of any national securities exchange or trading market upon which the Common Stock may be listed. The Company shall not take any action which results in any adjustment of the Conversion Price if the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and issuable after such action upon conversion of this Note would exceed the total number of shares of Common Stock then authorized by the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation.
(m)    The issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Note shall be made without charge to the holders thereof for any issuance tax in respect thereof, provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any certificate in a name other than that of the Holder.
(n)    The Company will not at any time close its transfer books against the transfer, as applicable, of this Note or of any shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon the conversion of this Note in any manner which interferes with the timely conversion of this Note, except as may otherwise be required to comply with applicable securities laws.
(o)    To the extent permitted by applicable law and the listing requirements of any stock exchange or trading market on which the Common Stock is then listed, the Company from time to time may decrease the Conversion Price by any amount for any period of time if the period is at least twenty (20) days, the decrease is irrevocable during the period and the Board shall have made a determination that such decrease would be in the best interests of the Company, which determination shall be conclusive. Whenever the Conversion Price is decreased pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Company shall provide written notice thereof to the Holder at least fifteen (15) days prior to the date the decreased Conversion Price takes effect, and such notice shall state the decreased Conversion Price and the period during which it will be in effect.
(p)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of shares of Common Stock that may be acquired by the Holder upon any conversion of this Note (or otherwise in respect hereof) shall be limited to the extent necessary to insure that, following such conversion (or other issuance), the total number of shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by such Holder and its Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), does not exceed 4.999% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (including for such purpose the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion). For such purposes, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. By written notice to the Company, the Holder may waive the provisions of this Section 4(p), but any such waiver will not be effective until the 61st day after delivery of such notice, nor will any such waiver effect any other holder of Company Notes.
(q)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of shares of Common Stock that may be acquired by the Holder upon any conversion of this Note (or otherwise in respect hereof) shall be limited to the extent necessary to insure that, following such conversion (or other issuance), the total number of shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by such Holder and its Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder's for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, does not exceed 9.999% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (including for such purpose the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion). For such purposes, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. By written notice to the Company, the Holder may waive the provisions of this Section 4(q), but any such waiver will not be effective until the 61st day after delivery of such notice, nor will any such waiver effect any other holder of Company Notes.

(b)    So long as any amount due under this Note is outstanding and until indefeasible payment in full of all amounts payable by the Company hereunder or this Note is converted into Common Stock as provided herein:
(i)    The Company shall not and shall cause each Subsidiary not to create, incur, guarantee, issue, assume or in any manner become liable in respect of any Indebtedness, other than Permitted Indebtedness.
(ii)    The Company shall not and shall cause each Subsidiary not to create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien upon any of its property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired other than (i) Liens created pursuant to the Security Documents and (ii) Permitted Liens. The Company shall not, and shall cause each Subsidiary not to, be bound by any agreement which limits the ability of the Company or any Subsidiary to grant Liens, except for any such limitations in agreements evidencing Permitted Liens.
(iii)    The Company shall not and shall cause each Subsidiary not to, directly or indirectly, enter into or permit to exist any transaction or series of related transactions (including, without limitation, the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of any property or the rendering of any service) with, or for the benefit of, any of its Affiliates other than a wholly owned Subsidiary, except for consulting, employment or separation arrangements with officers or directors approved by the Board.

WARRANT TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK

Warrant No.:         
Number of Shares of Common Stock:_____________
Date of Issuance: July 15, 2014 (“Issuance Date”)

Rainmaker Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby certifies that, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, [INVESTOR NAME], the registered holder hereof or its permitted assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company, at the Exercise Price (as defined below) then in effect, upon surrender of this Warrant to Purchase Common Stock (including any Warrants to Purchase Common Stock issued in exchange, transfer or replacement hereof, the “Warrant”), at any time or times on or after the Share Increase Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement referred to below) (the “Exercisability Date”), but not after 11:59 p.m., New York time, on the Expiration Date (as defined below), [______________ (_____________)] fully paid nonassessable shares of Common Stock (as defined below) (the “Warrant Shares”). Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms in this Warrant shall have the meanings set forth in Section 15. This Warrant is the Warrant to purchase Common Stock (this “Warrant”) issued pursuant to (i) the Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated as of July ●, 2014 (the “Subscription Date”), by and among the Company and the initial Holder of this Warrant. This Warrant is one of a series of warrants containing substantially identical terms and conditions issued pursuant to Offering referred to in the Purchase Agreement (collectively, the “Warrants”).
1.EXERCISE OF WARRANT.
(a)    Mechanics of Exercise. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder on any day on or after the Exercisability Date, in whole or in part (but not as to fractional shares), by (i) delivery of a written notice, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Exercise Notice”), of the Holder’s election to exercise this Warrant and (ii) if both (A) the Holder is not electing a Cashless Exercise (as defined below) pursuant to Section 1(d) of this Warrant and (B) a registration statement registering the issuance of the Warrant Shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), is effective and available for the issuance of the Warrant Shares, or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act is available for the issuance of the Warrant Shares, payment to the Company of an amount equal to the applicable Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised (the “Aggregate Exercise Price”) in cash or wire transfer of immediately available funds (a “Cash Exercise”) (the items under (i) and (ii) above, the “Exercise Delivery Documents”). The Holder shall not be required to surrender this Warrant in order to effect an exercise hereunder; provided, however, that in the event that this Warrant is exercised in full or for the remaining unexercised portion hereof, the Holder shall deliver this Warrant 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 Delivery Documents (the date upon which the Company has received all of the Exercise Delivery Documents, the “Exercise Date”), the Company shall transmit by facsimile or e-mail transmission an acknowledgment of confirmation of receipt of the Exercise Delivery Documents 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 Delivery Documents on or before the second Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received all of the Exercise Delivery Documents. On or before the second Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received all of the Exercise Delivery Documents (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 shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise. Upon delivery of the Exercise Delivery Documents, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date such Warrant Shares are credited to the Holder’s DTC account or the date of delivery of the certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares, as the case may be. If this Warrant is submitted in connection with any exercise pursuant to this Section 1(a) and the number of Warrant Shares represented by this Warrant submitted for exercise is greater than the number of Warrant Shares 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 Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant, less the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant 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 Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the registration of any certificates for Warrant Shares or Warrants in a name other than that of the Holder or an affiliate thereof. The Holder shall be responsible for all other tax liability that may arise as a result of holding or transferring this Warrant or receiving Warrant Shares upon exercise hereof.
(b)    Exercise Price. For purposes of this Warrant, “Exercise Price” means $0.08, 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 three (3) Business Days of the Exercise Date a certificate for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled and register such shares of Common Stock on the Company’s share register or to credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC for such number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise of this Warrant, and if on or after such Trading Day the Holder purchases, or another Person purchases on the Holder’s behalf or for the Holder’s account (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of shares of Common Stock 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 so purchased (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to deliver such certificate (and to issue such Warrant Shares) shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing such Warrant Shares 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, times (B) the Closing Bid Price on the date of exercise.
(d)    Cashless Exercise. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Holder may, in its sole discretion, exercise this Warrant in whole or in part and, in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company upon such exercise in payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price, elect instead to receive upon such exercise the “Net Number” of shares of Common Stock determined according to the following formula (a “Cashless Exercise”):
Net Number = (A x B) - (A x C)
B
For purposes of the foregoing formula:
A= the total number of shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised.
B= the arithmetic average of the Closing Sale Prices of the shares of Common Stock for the five (5) consecutive Trading Days ending on the date immediately preceding the date of the Exercise Notice.
C= the Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Warrant Shares at the time of such exercise.

(e)    Rule 144. For purposes of Rule 144(d) promulgated under the Securities Act, as in effect on the date hereof, assuming the Holder is not an affiliate of the Company, it is intended that the Warrant Shares issued in a Cashless Exercise shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant was originally issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.
(f)    Disputes. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price or the arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall promptly issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares that are not disputed.
(g)    Beneficial Ownership. The Company shall not effect the exercise of this Warrant, and the Holder shall not have the right to exercise this Warrant, 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 Warrant 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 Warrant 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 Warrant, 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 Warrant, 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 AND NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES. The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares shall be adjusted from time to time as follows:
(a)    Adjustment upon Issuance of shares of Common Stock. If and whenever on or after the Subscription Date, the Company issues or sells, or in accordance with this Section 2 is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock (including the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock owned or held by or for the account of the Company, but excluding shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued by the Company in connection with any Excluded Securities (as defined below) (the “Additional Shares”) for a consideration per share (the “New Issuance Price”) less than a price (the “Applicable Price”) equal to the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issue or sale or deemed issuance or sale (the foregoing a “Dilutive Issuance”), then immediately after such Dilutive Issuance, the Exercise Price then in effect shall be reduced to the lowest price per share at which any share of Common Stock was issued or sold or deemed to be issued or sold.
For purposes of determining the adjusted Exercise Price under this Section 2(a), the following shall be applicable:
 
(i) Issuance of Options. If the Company in any manner grants any Options and the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of any such Option or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of any such Option is less than the Applicable Price, then such share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the granting or sale of such Option for such price per share. For purposes of this Section 2(a)(i), the “lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon exercise of such Options or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of any such Option” shall be equal to the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to any one share of Common Stock upon the granting or sale of the Option, upon exercise of the Option and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Security issuable upon exercise of such Option less any consideration paid or payable by the Company with respect to such one share of Common Stock upon the granting or sale of such Option, upon exercise of such Option and upon conversion exercise or exchange of any Convertible Security issuable upon exercise of such Option. No further adjustment of the Exercise Price or number of Warrant Shares shall be made upon the actual issuance of such shares of Common Stock or of such Convertible Securities upon the exercise of such Options or upon the actual issuance of such shares of Common Stock upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Securities.
(ii) Issuance of Convertible Securities. If the Company in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities and the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof is less than the Applicable Price, then such share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities for such price per share. For the purposes of this Section 2(a)(ii), the “lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof” shall be equal to the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to one share of Common Stock upon the issuance or sale of the Convertible Security and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Security less any consideration paid or payable by the Company with respect to such one share of Common Stock upon the issuance or sale of such Convertible Security and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Security. No further adjustment of the Exercise Price or number of Warrant Shares shall be made upon the actual issuance of such shares of Common Stock upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Securities, and if any such issue or sale of such Convertible Securities is made upon exercise of any Options for which adjustment of this Warrant has been or is to be made pursuant to other provisions of this Section 2(a), no further adjustment of the Exercise Price or number of Warrant Shares shall be made by reason of such issue or sale.
(iii) Change in Option Price or Rate of Conversion. If the purchase price provided for in any Options, the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issue, conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities, or the rate at which any Convertible Securities are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock increases or decreases at any time, the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares in effect at the time of such increase or decrease shall be adjusted to the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares which would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible Securities provided for such increased or decreased purchase price, additional consideration or increased or decreased conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold. For purposes of this Section 2(a)(iii), if the terms of any Option or Convertible Security that was outstanding as of the date of issuance of this Warrant are increased or decreased in the manner described in the immediately preceding sentence, then such Option or Convertible Security and the shares of Common Stock deemed issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date of such increase or decrease. No adjustment pursuant to this Section 2(a) shall be made if such adjustment would result in an increase of the Exercise Price then in effect or a decrease in the number of Warrant Shares.
(iv) Calculation of Consideration Received. In case any Option is issued in connection with the issue or sale of other securities of the Company, together comprising one integrated transaction, (x) the Options will be deemed to have been issued for the Option Value of such Options and (y) the other securities issued or sold in such integrated transaction shall be deemed to have been issued for the difference of (I) the aggregate consideration received by the Company less any consideration paid or payable by the Company pursuant to the terms of such other securities of the Company, less (II) the Option Value. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold for cash, the consideration received therefor will be deemed to be the net amount received by the Company therefor. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of such consideration received by the Company will be the fair value of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by the Company will be the Closing Sale Price of such security on the date of receipt. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued to the owners of the non-surviving entity in connection with any merger in which the Company is the surviving entity, the amount of consideration therefor will be deemed to be the fair value of such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving entity as is attributable to such shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, as the case may be. The fair value of any consideration other than cash or securities will be determined jointly by the Company and the Required Holders. If such parties are unable to reach agreement within ten (10) days after the occurrence of an event requiring valuation (the “Valuation Event”), the fair value of such consideration will be determined within five (5) Trading Days after the tenth (10th) day following the Valuation Event by an independent, reputable appraiser jointly selected by the Company and the Required Holders. The determination of such appraiser shall be final and binding upon all parties absent manifest error and the fees and expenses of such appraiser shall be borne by the Company.
(v) Record Date. If the Company takes a record of the holders of shares of Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (A) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in shares of Common Stock, Options or in Convertible Securities or (B) to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, then such record date will be deemed to be the date of the issue or sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may be.
(b)    Voluntary Adjustment By Company. The Company may at any time during the term of this Warrant reduce the then current Exercise Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors of the Company.
(c)    Adjustment upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company at any time on or after the Subscription 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 in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Shares will be proportionately increased. If the Company at any time on or after the Subscription 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 in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Shares will be proportionately decreased. Any adjustment under this Section 2(c) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.
(d)    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 and the number of Warrant Shares so as to protect the rights of the Holder; provided that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 2(d) will increase the Exercise Price or decrease the number of Warrant Shares as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 2.
3.RIGHTS UPON DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS.
(a)    If the Company, at any time while this Warrant 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 shall be adjusted by multiplying the Exercise Price 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 Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) 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 Warrant and the other Transaction Documents 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 Warrants in exchange for such Warrants a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant, 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 Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) 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 Warrant 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 Warrant 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 Warrant at any time after the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, in lieu of the shares of Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property) issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant 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 Warrant been converted immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. 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 Warrant at any time after the consummation of the Corporate Event but prior to the Expiration Date, in lieu of shares of Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property) purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant 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 Warrant 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 Warrant.
(c)    Black Scholes Value. Notwithstanding the foregoing and the provisions of Section 4(b) above, if the Successor Entity refuses to assume this Warrant in connection with a Fundamental Transaction, then notwithstanding any other provision of this Warrant to the contrary, (i) Holder may elect to promptly exercise this Warrant in the manner specified in this Warrant with such exercise effective immediately prior to closing of the Fundamental Transaction, or (ii) unless such Fundamental Transaction is an Excluded Acquisition, Holder shall have the option, prior to or up to ten (10) days following the closing of the Fundamental Transaction, to elect to put this Warrant to the Company or the Successor Entity (as the case may be) for a cash price equal to the Black Scholes Value. As used herein, an “Excluded Acquisition” means a Fundamental Transaction where the consideration that the holders of the Company’s Common Stock are entitled to receive on account of the such Common Stock consists entirely of cash and/or shares of common stock that are publicly traded on a national exchange.
(d)    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 Warrant.
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 Warrant, and will at all times in good faith comply with all the provisions of this Warrant and take all actions consistent with effectuating the purposes of this Warrant. 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 Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, (ii) subject to the Share Increase, 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 Warrant, and (iii) from and after the Share Increase Date shall, so long as this Warrant 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 Warrant, 100% of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant then outstanding (without regard to any limitations on exercise).

Such insurance shall be in such minimum amounts that the Grantor will not be deemed a coinsurer under applicable insurance laws, regulations and policies and otherwise shall be in such amounts, contain such terms, be in such forms and be for such periods as may be reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent. In addition, all such insurance shall be payable to the Collateral Agent, as lender loss payees and the Collateral Agent shall be named as an additional insured on all such insurance policies.

Each Grantor shall furnish the Collateral Agent with certificates of insurance and policies evidencing compliance with the foregoing insurance provision.
12.     Collateral Protection Expenses; Preservation of Collateral.
12.1.        Expenses Incurred by Collateral Agent. In its discretion, the Collateral Agent may discharge taxes and other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on any of the Collateral, make repairs thereto and pay any necessary filing fees or, if any Grantor fails to do so, insurance premiums. Each Grantor agrees to reimburse the Collateral Agent on demand for any and all expenditures so made. The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to the Grantors to make any such expenditures, nor shall the making thereof relieve the Grantor of any default. Any expenses incurred under this Section 12 shall constitute Obligations.
12.2.        Collateral Agent’s and Purchasers’ Obligations and Duties. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Grantor shall remain liable under each contract or agreement comprised in the Collateral to be observed or performed by the Grantor thereunder. The Collateral Agent, Purchasers and their respective affiliates shall not have any obligation or liability under any such contract or agreement by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Collateral Agent or any Purchaser of any payment relating to any of the Collateral, nor shall the Collateral Agent, Purchasers or any of their affiliates be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of the Grantor under or pursuant to any such contract or agreement, to make inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by the Collateral Agent in respect of the Collateral or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party under any such contract or agreement, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to the Collateral Agent or to which the Collateral Agent may be entitled at any time or times. The Collateral Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safe keeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under §9-207 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State or otherwise, shall be to deal with such Collateral in the same manner as the Collateral Agent deals with similar property for its own accounts.
13.     Securities and Deposits. The Collateral Agent may at any time following and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at its option, transfer to themselves or any nominee any securities constituting Collateral, receive any income thereon and hold such income as additional Collateral or apply it to the Obligations. Whether or not any Obligations are due, the Collateral Agent may following and during the continuance of an Event of Default demand, sue for, collect, or make any settlement or compromise which it deems desirable with respect to the Collateral. Regardless of the adequacy of Collateral or any other security for the Obligations, any deposits or other sums at any time credited by or due from the Collateral Agent or the Purchasers to the Grantors may at any time be applied to or set off against any of the Obligations then due and owing.
14.     Notification to Account Debtors and Other Persons Obligated on Collateral. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Grantors shall, at the request of the Collateral Agent , notify account debtors and other persons obligated on any of the Collateral of the security interest of the Collateral Agent in any account, chattel paper, general intangible, instrument or other Collateral and that payment thereof is to be made directly to the Collateral Agent or to any financial institution designated by the Collateral Agent as its agent therefor, and the Collateral Agent may themselves, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, without notice to or demand upon the Grantor, so notify account debtors and other persons obligated on Collateral. After the making of such a request or the giving of any such notification, the Grantors shall hold any proceeds of collection of accounts, chattel paper, general intangibles, instruments and other Collateral received by the Grantor as trustee for the Collateral Agent without commingling the same with other funds of the Grantor and shall turn the same over to the Collateral Agent in the identical form received, together with any necessary endorsements or assignments. The Collateral Agent shall apply the proceeds of collection of accounts, chattel paper, general intangibles, instruments and other Collateral received by the Collateral Agent to the Obligations, such proceeds to be immediately entered after final payment in cash or other immediately available funds of the items giving rise to them.
15.     Investment Property. (15) The Grantors, at their cost and expense (including the cost and expense of any of the following referenced consents, approvals etc.) will promptly execute and deliver or cause the execution and delivery of all applications, certificates, instruments, registration statements, and all other documents and papers the Collateral Agent may request during the continuance of an Event of Default in connection with the obtaining of any consent, approval, registration, qualification, permit, license, accreditation, or authorization of any other official body or other Person necessary or appropriate for the effective exercise of any rights hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Grantors agree that in the event the Collateral Agent shall exercise its rights hereunder or pursuant to the other Transaction Documents during the continuance of an Event of Default, to sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of, or vote, consent, operate, or take any other action in connection with any of the Collateral, the Grantors shall execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) all applications, certificates, assignments and other documents that the Collateral Agent request to facilitate such actions and shall otherwise promptly, fully, and diligently cooperate with the Collateral Agent and any other Persons in making any application for the prior consent or approval of any official body or any other Person to the exercise by the Collateral Agent of any such rights relating to all or any of the Collateral.
(ii)    The Grantors agree promptly upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default and without any request therefor by the Collateral Agent , so long as such Event of Default shall continue, (i) to deliver (properly endorsed where required hereby or requested by Collateral Agent ) to the Collateral Agent all Dividends and Distributions with respect to Investment Property and all proceeds of the Collateral, in each case thereafter received by the Grantor, all of which shall be held by Collateral Agent as additional Collateral; and (ii) with respect to Collateral consisting of general partner interests or limited liability company interests, to make modifications to all necessary documents to admit the Collateral Agent and the Purchasers as general partners or members, respectively.
(iii)    Except when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Grantors may continue to vote all Investment Property included in the Collateral except in a manner which is inconsistent or in violation of the Transaction Documents. The Grantors agree promptly upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (i) that Collateral Agent may exercise (to the exclusion of the Grantor) the voting power and all other incidental rights of ownership with respect to any Collateral constituting Investment Property of the Grantor and the Grantor hereby grants Collateral Agent an irrevocable proxy, exercisable under such circumstances, to vote such Investment Property; and (ii) that it shall promptly deliver to the Collateral Agent such additional proxies and other documents as may be necessary to allow the Collateral Agent to exercise such voting power.
(iv)    All Dividends, Distributions, interest, principal, cash payments, payment intangibles and proceeds which may at any time and from time to time be held by any Grantor but which the Grantor is then obligated to deliver to the Collateral Agent, shall, until delivery to the Collateral Agent, be held by the Grantor separate and apart from its other property in trust for the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent agree that unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Grantors will have the exclusive voting power with respect to any Investment Property constituting the Grantor’s Collateral and the Collateral Agent will, upon the written request of any Grantor, promptly deliver such proxies and other documents, if any, as shall be reasonably requested by the Grantor which are necessary to allow the Grantor to exercise that voting power; provided that no vote shall be cast, or consent, waiver, or ratification given, or action taken by the Grantor that would violate any provision of any Transaction Document.
The Grantors hereby acknowledge that the sale by Collateral Agent of any Investment Property pursuant to the terms hereof in compliance with the Securities Act, as well as applicable “Blue Sky” or other state securities laws may require strict limitations as to the manner in which Collateral Agent or any subsequent transferee of the Investment Property may dispose thereof. The Grantors acknowledge and agree that, to protect Collateral Agent’s interests, it may be necessary to sell the Investment Property at a price less than the maximum price attainable if a sale were delayed or made in another manner, such as a public offering under the Securities Act. The Grantors do not have an objection to a sale in such manner and the Grantors agree that Collateral Agent do not have an obligation to obtain the maximum possible price for all or any part of the Investment Property. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Grantors agree that Collateral Agent may, pursuant to the terms hereof and subject to applicable law, from time to time attempt to sell all or any part of the Investment Property by a private placement, restricting the bidders and prospective purchasers to those Persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing for investment only and not for distribution. In so doing, Collateral Agent may solicit offers to buy the Investment Property or any part thereof for cash from a limited number of investors deemed by Collateral Agent, in its reasonable judgment, to be institutional investors or other responsible Persons who might be interested in purchasing the Investment Property. If Collateral Agent shall solicit such offers, then acceptance by Collateral Agent of one of the offers shall be deemed to be a commercially reasonable method of disposition of the Collateral.
16.     Power of Attorney.
16.1.        Appointment and Powers of Collateral Agent. The Grantors hereby irrevocably constitute and appoint the Collateral Agent and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of the Grantors or in the Collateral Agent’s own name, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments that may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, hereby gives said attorney the power and right, on behalf of the Grantors, without notice to or assent by the Grantors, to do the following:

17.     Remedies. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent may, without notice to or demand upon the Grantors, declare this Agreement to be in default, and the Collateral Agent shall thereafter have in any jurisdiction in which enforcement hereof is sought, in addition to all other rights and remedies, the rights and remedies of a purchaser under the Uniform Commercial Code of the State or of any jurisdiction in which Collateral is located, including, without limitation, the right to take possession of the Collateral, and for that purpose the Collateral Agent may, so far as the Grantors can give authority therefor, enter upon any premises on which the Collateral may be situated and remove the same therefrom. The Collateral Agent may in its discretion require the Grantors to assemble all or any part of the Collateral at such location or locations within the jurisdiction(s) of the Grantors’ principal office(s) or at such other locations as the Collateral Agent may reasonably designate. Unless the Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, the Collateral Agent shall give to the Grantors at least ten Business Days prior written notice of the time and place of any public sale of Collateral or of the time after which any private sale or any other intended disposition is to be made.

The Grantors acknowledge that the purpose of this §18 is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Collateral Agent would not be commercially unreasonable in the Collateral Agent’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Collateral Agent shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this §18. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this §18 shall be construed to grant any rights to the Grantors or to impose any duties on the Collateral Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this §18. Upon the exercise by the Collateral Agent of its remedies hereunder, any proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any realization upon any Collateral shall be applied, together with any other sums then held by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement, as follows: (a) First, to all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred in connection herewith or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, (b) second, to all obligations due and owing to the Purchasers under the Purchase Agreement, the Notes or hereunder on a pro rata basis based on the total amount owed to the Purchasers and (c) then as required by law or court order.

19. No Oral Change; Amendments; Security Agreement Supplements for Additional Grantors. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by the Grantors and the Collateral Agent, and no waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure by the Grantors therefrom, shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by the Collateral Agent, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. Notwithstanding the foregoing, additional Persons may become Grantors under this Agreement without consent of any other Grantor through execution and delivery to the Collateral Agent of an Assumption Agreement in the form of Annex 1 hereto or any other form of supplement acceptable to the Collateral Agent. Nothing in this Section 19 shall be construed to permit any Grantor to form a Subsidiary unless expressly permitted to do so under the Note.
20.     Suretyship Waivers by Grantors. Each Grantor waives demand, notice, protest, notice of acceptance of this Agreement, notice of loans made, credit extended, Collateral received or delivered or other action taken in reliance hereon and all other demands and notices of any description.

To the extent that it lawfully may, each Grantor hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshalling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of the Collateral Agent’s rights under this Agreement or under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of the Obligations or under which any of the Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the extent that it lawfully may, each Grantor hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.
22.     Proceeds of Dispositions; Expenses. The Grantors shall pay to the Collateral Agent on demand any and all expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, incurred or paid by the Collateral Agent in protecting, preserving or enforcing the Collateral Agent’s rights under or in respect of any of the Obligations or any of the Collateral.

In connection with any registration statement covering Registrable Securities, each Holder any of whose Registrable Securities are covered thereby shall furnish to the Company in writing such information and affidavits with respect to such Holder as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with such registration statement, any related prospectus or preliminary prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, and shall indemnify, to the full extent permitted by law, the Company, the Company's directors, officers, employees and agents, each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) and any investment adviser thereof or agent therefor, against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including costs of investigation and legal expenses) arising out of or based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any registration statement covering any Registrable Securities, any related prospectus or preliminary prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any omission or alleged omission to state in any thereof a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus or prospectus supplement, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that the same arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or an omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in such registration statement or in such related prospectus, preliminary prospectus, amendment or supplement, as the case may be, made or omitted, as the case may be, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein.

(c)    Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Any Person entitled to indemnification under this Section 6 shall give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party after the receipt by such Person of any written notice of the commencement of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation or threat thereof made in writing for which such Person will claim indemnification or contribution pursuant hereto and, unless in the judgment of such indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and the indemnifying party with respect to such claim, permit the indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party. If the indemnifying party is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim, it shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel with respect to such claim, unless in the judgment of counsel to such indemnified party, expressed in a writing delivered to the indemnifying party, a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other indemnified party with respect to such claim, in which event the indemnifying party shall be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of such additional counsel or counsels (which shall be limited to one counsel per indemnified party). The indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
(d)    Contribution.
(i)    If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6 from the indemnifying party is unavailable to any indemnified party hereunder in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified parties in connection with the actions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and indemnified parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has been made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified parties, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 6(c), any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding.
(ii)    The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, in no event shall the contribution obligation of any Holder be greater in amount than the excess of (A) the dollar amount of the proceeds received by such Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such contribution obligation over (B) the dollar amount of any damages that such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of the untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission giving rise to such obligation. No Person guilty or fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
(iii)    If indemnification is available under this Section 6, the indemnifying party shall indemnify each indemnified party to the full extent provided in Section 6(a) and 6(b) without regard to the relative fault of said indemnifying party or indemnified party or any other equitable consideration provided for in this Section 6(d).
(iv)    If any provision of an indemnification clause in an underwriting agreement executed by or on behalf of a Holder of Registrable Securities in accordance with Section 4(a)(xiv)(D) differs from a provision in this Section 6, such provision in the underwriting agreement shall determine such Holder's rights in respect thereof.
7.    Participation in Underwriting Registrations.
No Person may participate in any underwritten Registration unless such Person (a) agrees to sell such Person's securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements, (b) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements, and (c) agrees to pay such Person's pro rata portion of all underwriting discounts and commissions.
