The Company will issue the warrants within fifteen days after all of the Pre-IPO Conditions are met.

This Warrant will vest 30 days prior to an expected going public transaction and can only be exercised if the Company is listed on a national stock exchange.

 

 
 

 

This Warrant is subject to the following terms and conditions:

 

1. Registration of Warrant. The Company shall register this Warrant upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the “Warrant Register”), in the name of the record Warrant Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the registered Warrant Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Warrant Holder, and for all other purposes, unless provided notice to the contrary in accordance herewith.

 

2. Investment Representation. The Warrant Holder by accepting this Warrant represents that the Warrant Holder is acquiring this Warrant for its own account or the account of an affiliate for investment purposes and not with the view to any offering or distribution and that the Warrant Holder will not sell or otherwise dispose of this Warrant or the underlying Warrant Shares in violation of applicable securities laws. The Warrant Holder acknowledges that the certificates representing any Warrant Shares will bear a legend indicating that they have not been registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”) and may not be sold by the Warrant Holder except pursuant to an effective registration statement or pursuant to an exemption from registration requirements of the 1933 Act and in accordance with federal and state securities laws.

3. Validity of Warrant and Issue of Shares.

The Company further warrants and agrees that during the period within which the rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will at all times have authorized and reserved a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant.

 

4. Registration of Transfers and Exchange of Warrants.

 

a. Subject to compliance with the legend set forth on the face of this Warrant, the Company shall register the transfer of this Warrant, or any portion of this Warrant, in the Warrant Register, upon delivery by the Warrant Holder to the Company, pursuant to Section 10 of (i) this Warrant, and (ii) a duly completed and executed written assignment. Upon any such registration or transfer, a new warrant to purchase Common Stock, in substantially the form of this Warrant (any such new warrant, a “New Warrant”), evidencing the portion of this Warrant so transferred shall be issued to the transferee and a New Warrant evidencing the remaining portion of this Warrant not so transferred, if any, shall be issued to the transferring Warrant Holder. The acceptance of the New Warrant by the transferee thereof shall be deemed the acceptance of such transferee of all of the rights and obligations of a Warrant Holder of a Warrant.

 

 
 

 

b. This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Warrant Holder to the office of the Company specified in or pursuant to Section 10 for one or more New Warrants, evidencing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares which may then be purchased hereunder. Any such New Warrant will be dated the date of such exchange, and will have the same Expiration Date as the original Warrant for which the New Warrant was exchanged.

 

5. Exercise of Warrants.

 

a. Exercise of this Warrant shall be made upon delivery to the Company pursuant to Section 10, of (i) this Warrant; (ii) a duly completed and executed election notice, in the form attached hereto (the “Election Notice”) and (iii) payment of the Exercise Price. Payment of the Exercise Price may be made at the option of the Warrant Holder either (a) in cash, wire transfer or by certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company equal to Exercise Price per share in effect at the time of exercise multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares specified in the Election Notice, or (b) through a cashless exercise provided in Section S(b) below. The Company shall promptly (but in no event later than three (3) business days after the “Date of Exercise,” as defined herein) issue or cause to be issued and cause to be delivered to the Warrant Holder in such name or names as the Warrant Holder may designate in the Election Notice, a certificate for the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, with such restrictive legend as required by the 1933 Act, as applicable. Any person so designated by the Warrant Holder to receive Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have become holder of record of such Warrant Shares as of the Date of Exercise of this Warrant. All Warrant Shares delivered to the Warrant Holder the Company covenants, shall upon due exercise of this Warrant, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

 

b. If the closing price per share of the Common Stock (as quoted by the NASDAQ or other principal trading market, if applicable) reported on the day immediately preceding the Date of Exercise (the “Fair Market Value”) of one share of Common Stock is greater than the Exercise Price of one Warrant Share (at the date of calculation as set forth below), in lieu of exercising this Warrant for cash, the Warrant Holder may elect to receive that number of Warrant Shares computed using the following formula:

 

X=Y (A-B)

A

 

Where X= the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Warrant Holder

 

Y= the number of shares of Warrant Shares purchasable under this Warrant or, if only a portion of this Warrant is being exercised, the portion of this Warrant being exercised (at the date of such calculation)

 

A= Fair Market Value

 

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

 

 
 

 

For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933 Act, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a cashless exercise transaction in the manner described above shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Warrant Holder, and the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant was originally issued.

 

c. A “Date of Exercise” means the date on which the Company shall have received (i) this Warrant (or any New Warrant, as applicable), (ii) the Election Notice (or attached to such New Warrant) appropriately completed and duly signed, and (iii) payment of the Exercise Price (if this Warrant is exercised on a cash basis) for the number of Warrant Shares so indicated by the Warrant Holder to be purchased.

 

d. This Warrant shall be exercisable at any time and from time to time for such number of Warrant Shares as is indicated in the attached Form of Election to Purchase. If less than all of the Warrant Shares which may be purchased under this Warrant are exercised at any time, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued, at its expense, a New Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares for which no exercise has been evidenced by this Warrant.

 

e. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Warrant, the Warrant Holder may not exercise this Warrant if such exercise would cause Warrant Holder’s beneficial ownership (as defined by Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) of the Common Stock of the Company to exceed 4.9% of its total issued and outstanding Common Stock or voting shares. Upon not less than sixty-one (61) days advance written notice, at any time or from time to time, the Warrant Holder at its sole discretion, may waive this provision of this Warrant.

 

f. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Warrant, the Warrant Holder may not exercise this Warrant if such exercise would cause Warrant Holder’s beneficial ownership (as defined by Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) of the Common Stock of the Company to exceed 9.9% of its total issued and outstanding Common Stock or voting shares.

 

6. Common Share Issuance. Upon receipt by the Company of a written request from Warrant Holder to exercise any portion of any Warrant, subject to any limitations on exercise contained in any Warrant, the Company shall have three (3) business days (“Delivery Date”) to request issuance of the shares of Common Stock rightfully listed in such request. If the Company fails to timely deliver the shares through willful failure or deliberate hindrance, the Company shall pay to Warrant Holder in immediately available funds $1,000.00 per day past the Delivery Date that the shares are actually issued. Any amounts due under this Section shall be paid by the fifth (5th) day of the month following the month in which they accrued. The Company agrees that the right to exercise its Warrants is a valuable right to Warrant Holder and a material consideration of it entering this Agreement. The parties agree that it would be impracticable and extremely difficult to ascertain the amount of actual damages caused by a failure of the Company to timely deliver shares as required hereby. Therefore, the parties agree that the foregoing liquidated damages provision represents reasonable compensation for the loss which would be incurred by the Warrant Holder due to any such breach. The parties agree that this Section is not intended to in any way limit Warrant Holder’s right to pursue other remedies, including actual damages and/or equitable relief.

 

 
 

 

7. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares. The character of the shares of stock or other securities at the time issuable upon exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price therefor, are subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of the following events:

 

a. Adjustment for Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, Etc. In case of any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into any other corporation, entity or person, or any other corporate reorganization, in which the Company shall not be the continuing or surviving entity of such consolidation, merger or reorganization (any such transaction being hereinafter referred to as a “Reorganization”), then, in each case, the Holder of this Warrant, on exercise hereof at any time after the consummation or effective date of such Reorganization (the “Effective Date”), shall receive, in lieu of the shares of stock or other securities at any time issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant issuable on such exercise prior to the Effective Date, the stock and other securities and property (including cash) to which such Holder would have been entitled upon the Effective Date if such holder had exercised this Warrant immediately prior thereto (all subject to further adjustment as provided in this Warrant). The Company shall ensure that the surviving entity in any Reorganization specifically assumes the Company’s obligations under this Warrant.

 

b. Exercise Price Adjustment. If at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Common Stock, options to purchase Common Stock, securities convertible into Common Stock or rights relating to Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”) to any person, entity, association, or other organization other than the Holder, at a price per share less than the Exercise Price, then the Exercise Price hereof shall be proportionately reduced to match the price per share of the Purchase Rights. For purposes of clarification, if the exercise price of the Warrant Shares is $1.50, and if the Company sells Common Stock at $1.00 per share at any time after the date hereof, then the Exercise Price of Holder’s Warrant Shares would be adjusted to $1.00. Notwithstanding, the Exercise Price may not exceed $1.50 per share in any case.

 

c. Adjustments for Stock Dividends; Combinations, Etc. In case the Company shall do any of the following (an “Event”):

 

(i) declare a dividend or other distribution on its Common Stock payable in Common Stock of the Company,

 

(ii) subdivide the outstanding Common Stock pursuant to a stock split or otherwise, or
