SECTION 4.
OWNERSHIP OF WARRANT.
The Company may deem and treat the person or entity in whose name this Warrant is registered as the holder and owner hereof (notwithstanding any notations of ownership or writing hereon made by anyone other than the Company) for all purposes and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.
SECTION 5.
ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF SHARES. The Exercise Price and the number of Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain events described in this Section 5.
5.1. SUBDIVISION OR COMBINATION OF SHARES. In case the Company shall at any time subdivide its outstanding Shares into a greater number of Shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced, and conversely, in case the outstanding Shares of the Company shall be combined into a smaller number of Shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased.
5.2. NO VOTING RIGHTS. Nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as conferring upon the holder hereof the right to vote or to consent to receive notice as a shareholder of the Company on any other matters or any rights whatsoever as a shareholder of the Company.
2.3. NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENT. When the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 5, the Company shall promptly (i) deliver a notice to the Warrantholder, and (ii) file with the transfer agent for the Warrants a certificate of an officer of the Company, in each case, setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and any resulting adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares, and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment and a computation thereof. To the extent that any notice provided in this Warrant constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Report on Form 8-K. The Warrantholder shall remain entitled to exercise this Warrant during the period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein.
5.4. CERTAIN EVENTS. If any change in the outstanding Shares of the Company or any other event occurs as to which the other provisions of this Section 5 are not strictly applicable or if strictly applicable would not fairly effect the adjustments to this Warrant in accordance with the essential intent and principles of such provisions, then the Company shall make in good faith an adjustment in the number and class of Shares issuable under this Warrant, the Exercise Price and/or the application of such provisions, in accordance with such essential intent and principles, so as to protect such purchase rights as aforesaid. The adjustment shall be such as will give the Warrantholder, upon exercise for the same aggregate Exercise Price, the total number, class and kind of Shares as the Warrantholder would have owned had this Warrant been exercised prior to the event and had the Warrantholder continued to hold such Shares until after the event requiring adjustment.
SECTION 6.
NOTICE OF CORPORATE EVENTS. If the Company (i) declares a dividend or any other distribution of cash, securities or other property in respect of its Common Stock, including without limitation, any granting of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any capital stock of the Company or of any rights, (ii) enters into any agreement contemplating or solicits stockholder approval for any Fundamental Transaction, or (iii) authorizes the dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be delivered to the Warrantholder at least twenty (20) calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date on which a Person would be required to hold Common Stock in order to participate in or vote with respect to such event or transaction a written notice stating the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such event or transaction, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock to be entitled to participate or vote in event or transaction are to be determined. To the extent that any notice provided in this Warrant constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Report on Form 8-K. The Holder shall remain entitled to exercise this Warrant during the period commencing on the date of such notice to 5:00 P.M. Eastern Time on the Business Day immediately preceding the effective date of the event triggering such notice (the “Corporate Event Exercise Date”) in order to participate in or vote with respect to such event or transaction except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein; provided, however, that upon the consummation or occurrence of an event described in either clause (ii) or (iii) above, this Warrant will terminate as of the Corporate Event Exercise Date.
SECTION 7.
CALL PROVISION. If at any time commencing twelve (12) months from the date of this Warrant, but before the Expiration Date, the Volume Weighted Average Pricing (“VWAP”) of the Company’s Common Stock exceeds $11.00 (subject to adjustment for forward and reverse stock splits, recapitalizations, stock dividends and the like as set forth in Section 5) for each of thirty consecutive trading days (the “Measurement Period”), then the Company may, at any time in its sole discretion, call for the exercise of this Warrant, in its entirety (“Call Right”). To exercise the Call Right, the Company must deliver to the Warrantholder an irrevocable written notice (a “Call Notice) indicating that the provisions of this Section of the Warrant have been satisfied, and that the Warrantholder accordingly must exercise all, or a portion, of this Warrant prior to the Call Date, as defined below. Such Call Notice shall include language notifying the Warrantholder that the failure to comply with the Call Notice shall result in the forfeiture and cancellation of any unexercised Warrant Shares granted to Warrantholder hereunder. If the conditions set forth above for such Call Notice are met and the Warrantholder has not exercised all of the Shares exercisable under this Warrant by delivering an Exercise Notice and payment therefor to the Company within thirty (30) trading days after the date the Call Notice is received by the Warrantholder (such date and time, the “Call Date”), then the Warrants for which a Exercise Notice shall not have been received by the Call Date will be cancelled at 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on the Call Date. In furtherance thereof, the Company covenants and agrees that it will honor all Exercise Notices with respect to the Warrant Shares subject to a Call Notice that are tendered through 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on the Call Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Warrant, provided that the Warrantholder shall have furnished to the Company, within ten (10) calendar days after the Warrantholder’s receipt of written notice from the Company, such information regarding the Warrantholder, the Warrant Shares held by it, and the intended method of disposition of such securities as is reasonably required to effect the registration of such Warrantholder’s Warrant Shares and is set forth in reasonable detail in such written notice, the Company may not deliver a Call Notice or require the cancellation of this Warrant (and any such Call Notice shall be void), unless the Company shall have filed a registration statement (“Registration Statement”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, covering the Warrant Shares and such Registration Statement has been declared effective by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.
SECTION 8.
COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES ACT; TRANSFERABILITY OF WARRANT; DISPOSITION OF WARRANT SHARES AND COMMON STOCK.
8.1. COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES ACT. The Warrantholder, by acceptance hereof, agrees that this Warrant, the Warrant Shares and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Warrant Shares are being acquired for investment and that it shall not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of this Warrant, any Warrant Shares or any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Warrant Shares except under circumstances which will not result in a violation of the Act or any applicable state securities laws. This Warrant, the Warrant Shares and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Warrant Shares (unless registered under the Act) shall be stamped or imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:
“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”) OR THE SECURITIES OR BLUE SKY LAWS OF ANY STATE. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED, OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF A REGISTRATION STATEMENT IN EFFECT WITH RESPECT TO THE SECURITIES UNDER THE ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED, OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OF THE ACT.
8.2 ACCREDITED INVESTOR; ACCESS TO INFORMATION; PRE-EXISTING RELATIONSHIP. Warrantholder presently qualifies and will as of any exercise of this Warrant qualify as an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D of the rules and regulations promulgated under the Act. Warrantholder has had the opportunity to ask questions of, and to receive answers from, appropriate executive officers of the Company with respect to the terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and with respect to the business, affairs, financial condition and results of operations of the Company. Warrantholder has had access to such financial and other information as is necessary in order for Warrantholder to make a fully informed decision as to investment in the Company, and has had the opportunity to obtain any additional information necessary to verify any of such information to which Warrantholder has had access. Warrantholder further represents and warrants that the Warrantholder has either (a) a pre-existing relationship with the Company or one or more of its officers or directors consisting of personal or business contacts of a nature and duration which enable the Warrantholder to be aware of the character, business acumen and general business and financial circumstances of the Company or the officer or director with whom such relationship exists or (b) such business or financial expertise as to be able to protect the Warrantholder’s own interests in connection with the purchase of the Warrant Shares.
8.3 WARRANT NOT TRANSFERABLE. The Warrant Shares, if and when issued, may be transferred or sold only in compliance with applicable United States federal and state securities laws or of any requirements of the Trading Market upon which the Common Stock may be quoted or listed. Any instrument purporting to make an assignment in contravention of this Section 8.3 shall be void.
8.4 DISPOSITION OF WARRANT SHARES. With respect to any offer, sale, or other disposition of any Warrant Shares prior to registration of such shares, the Warrantholder and each subsequent Warrantholder agrees to give written notice to the Company prior thereto, describing briefly the manner thereof, together with a written opinion of such Warrantholder’s counsel, if reasonably requested by the Company, to the effect that such offer, sale or other disposition may be effected without registration or qualification (under the Act as then in effect or any federal or state law then in effect) of such Warrant Shares and indicating whether or not under the Act certificates for such Warrant Shares to be sold or otherwise disposed of require any restrictive legend as to applicable restrictions on transferability. Promptly upon receiving such written notice and opinion, the Company, as promptly as practicable, shall notify such Warrantholder that such Warrantholder may sell or otherwise dispose of such Warrant Shares all in accordance with the terms of the notice delivered to the Company. If a determination has been made pursuant to this Section 8.4 that the opinion of the counsel for the Warrantholder is not reasonably satisfactory to the Company, the Company shall so notify the Warrantholder promptly after such determination has been made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such Warrant Shares may be offered, sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with Rule 144 under the Act, provided that the Company shall have been furnished with such information as the Company may request to provide reasonable assurance that the provisions of Rule 144 have been satisfied. Each certificate representing the Warrant Shares thus transferred (except a transfer pursuant to Rule 144) shall bear a legend as to the applicable restrictions on transferability in order to insure compliance with the Act, unless in the aforesaid opinion of counsel for the Warrantholder, such legend is not required in order to insure compliance with the Act. The Company may issue stop transfer instructions to its transfer agent in connection with such restrictions.
8.5 MARKET STANDOFF. The Warrantholder hereby agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of the managing underwriter, during the period commencing on the date of the final prospectus relating to a registered public offering of the Company and ending on the date specified by the Company and the managing underwriter (such period not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) (i) lend, offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Warrant Shares, or (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Warrant Shares, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of securities, in cash or otherwise. The underwriters in connection with a registered public offering of the Company are intended third party beneficiaries of this Section and shall have the right, power and authority to enforce the provisions hereof as though they were a party hereto. Warrantholder further agrees to execute such agreements as may be reasonably requested by the underwriters or the Company in a registered public offering of the Company that are consistent with this Section 8.5 or that are necessary to give further effect thereto.
In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to shares of the Company’s capital stock acquired through the exercise of this Warrant until the end of such period. The Warrantholder agrees that a legend reading substantially as follows shall be placed on all certificates representing all shares of the Warrantholder (and the shares or securities of every other person subject to the restriction contained in this Section 8.5):
“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO A LOCK-UP PERIOD AFTER THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE ISSUER’S REGISTRATION STATEMENT FILED UNDER THE ACT, AS AMENDED, AS SET FORTH IN AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE ORIGINAL HOLDER OF THESE SECURITIES, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED AT THE ISSUER’S PRINCIPAL OFFICE. SUCH LOCK-UP PERIOD IS BINDING ON TRANSFEREES OF THESE SHARES.”
SECTION 9.
CASHLESS EXERCISE. In the event that, at the time of the exercise of this Warrant by the Warrantholder, there is not an effective Registration Statement covering the sale by the Warrantholder of the Warrant Shares to be issued upon such exercise, the Warrantholder, in lieu of exercising this Warrant by the cash payment of the Exercise Price pursuant to Section 1.2, may elect, at any time on or before the Expiration Date, to surrender this Warrant and receive that number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula:
Where: X = the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Warrantholder.
Y
=
the number of shares of Common Stock that Warrantholder would otherwise have been entitled to purchase hereunder pursuant to Section 1.2 (or such lesser number of shares as the Warrantholder may designate in the case of a partial exercise of this Warrant).
A
=
the Market Price at the time such exercise
B
=
the Exercise Price then in effect.
Election to exercise under this Section 9 may be made by delivering a signed form of subscription to the Company via facsimile, to be followed by delivery of this Warrant.
SECTION 10.

10.1. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement and the documents referred to herein constitute the entire agreement among the parties and supersede any prior agreements or understandings regarding the subject matter hereof.
10.2. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. The terms and conditions of this Warrant shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties’ respective successors and assigns.

10.3. AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. No failure on the part of either party to exercise and no delay in exercising any power or right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any power or right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power or right. The remedies herein and in any other instrument, document or agreement delivered or to be delivered by either party hereunder or in connection herewith are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. No notice to or demand on a party not required hereunder shall in any event entitle such party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the right of the other party to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. No amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Warrant or consent to any departure by either party therefrom shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Company and the Warrantholder.
10.4. SECTION AND OTHER HEADINGS. The titles and subtitles used in this Warrant are used for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this Warrant.
10.5. NOTICES.

10.6. SEVERABILITY. If one or more provisions of this Warrant are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, such provision shall be excluded from this Warrant and the balance of this Warrant shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.
11.7. FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional Shares or scrip representing fractional Shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. With respect to any fraction of a Share called for upon any exercise hereof, the Company shall round up to the nearest whole Share.
10.8 DELIVERY OF NEW WARRANT. Unless the purchase rights represented by this Warrant shall have expired or shall have been fully exercised, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of the certificate or certificates representing the Warrant Shares being issued in accordance herewith, deliver to the Warrantholder a new warrant evidencing the rights of the Warrantholder to purchase the unexpired and unexercised Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant. Such new warrant shall in all other respects be identical to this Warrant.
10.9. GOVERNING LAW. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed under the substantive laws of New York without regard to the conflicts of law provisions thereof.
