Speed Commerce, Inc., a Minnesota 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, (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 later of (i) one year and one day from the Issuance Date and (ii) the Capital Event Date (as defined 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 (the “Warrant Shares”).

This Warrant is the Series B Warrant to purchase Common Stock (this “Warrant”) issued pursuant to (i) the Subscription Agreement, dated as of April 16, 2015, between the Company and the Holder (the “Subscription Agreement”) and (ii) the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No.: 333-201266). This Series B Warrant is one of a series of warrants containing substantially identical terms and conditions issued pursuant to subscription agreements that are substantially identical to the Subscription 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 but not after 11:59 p.m., New York time, on the Expiration Date, in whole or in part (but not as to fractional shares), by 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. No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise form be required. Within two (2) Trading Days of the delivery of such Exercise Notice, 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, 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 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 Notice (the date upon which the Company has received the Exercise Notice, the “Exercise Date”), the Company shall transmit by facsimile or e-mail transmission an acknowledgment of confirmation of receipt of the Exercise Notice 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 Notice on or before the first Trading Day following the later of the date on which the Holder has delivered the Exercise Notice. On or before the second Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received the Exercise Notice, provided the Aggregate Exercise Price has been received by the Company prior to such Trading Day (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 Notice (assuming payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price is made within two (2) Trading Days after delivery of the Exercise Notice), 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. So long as there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by Holder or if this Warrant is being exercised via cashless exercise, Warrant Shares shall be issued electronically free of any legends. 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 income tax liability that may arise as a result of holding or transferring this Warrant. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the Warrant Shares subject to an Exercise Notice by Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Warrant Shares subject to such exercise (based on the VWAP of the Common Stock on the date of the applicable Exercise Notice), $5 per Trading Day (increasing to $10 per Trading Day on the fifth Trading Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after such Share Delivery Date until such Warrant Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise.

(b)     Exercise Price. For purposes of this Warrant, “Exercise Price” means $0.56, 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) Trading 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 purchasers 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 VWAP (as reported by Bloomberg) on the date of the event giving rise to the Company’s obligation to deliver such certificate.

 

(d)     Cashless Exercise. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if (i) the Company exercises the right not to register the Warrant Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 8(b) hereof or (ii) a registration statement covering the Warrant Shares that are the subject of the Exercise Notice (the “Unavailable Warrant Shares”) is not effective, or the prospectus contained therein is not available for the issuance or resale of the Warrant Shares to/by the Holder, then, in the case of clause (i) the Holder may only, and in the case of clause (ii) the Holder may in its sole discretion, exercise this Warrant in whole or in part by, 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, electing 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 - B) (X)

(A)

 

 
3
 

 

For purposes of the foregoing formula:

 

A= the VWAP for the three (3) consecutive Trading Days ending on the date immediately preceding the date of the Exercise Notice.

 

B= the Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Warrant Shares at the time of such exercise.

 

X= the total number of shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised.

 

 

(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, the Company acknowledges and agrees 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 Issuance Date. The Company acknowledges and agrees that, in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, any Warrant Shares issued in a Cashless Exercise, shall take on the registered characteristics of the Warrants being exercised, and the Warrant Shares will be freely tradable without any restrictive legend. The Company agrees not to take any position contrary to this Section 1(e).

 

(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 (the “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)     [Intentionally Omitted]

 

(b)     Adjustment upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. 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 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 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 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(b) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

 

(c)     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, by means of 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(c) will increase the Exercise Price or decrease the number of Warrant Shares as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 2.

 

 
5
 

 

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) (a “Distribution”), then, in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have participated therein 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 exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Maximum Percentage and/or the fact that such event may have occurred prior to the Exercisability Date) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for such Distribution, 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 participation in such Distribution.

 

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 in each such case, the Company shall reserve Options, Convertible Securities or Purchase Rights for distribution to the Holder upon exercise of this Warrant so that, in addition to the shares of the Common Stock to which such Holder is entitled, such Holder will receive upon such exercise the amount and kind of such Options, Convertible Securities or Purchase Rights which such Holder would have received if the Holder had, immediately prior to the record date for the distribution of the Options, Convertible Securities or Purchase Rights, exercised this Warrant in full (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Maximum Percentage and/or the fact that such event may have occurred prior to the Exercisability Date).

 

(b)     Fundamental Transactions. In the event of the consummation of a Fundamental Transaction, the Company or the Successor Entity (as the case may be) shall purchase this Warrant from the Holder no later than the date of consummation of the Fundamental Transaction by paying to the Holder cash in an amount equal to the Black Scholes Value.

 

5.     NONCIRCUMVENTION. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its Articles 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) 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 Capital Event 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 restrictions or limitations on exercise).

6.     WARRANT HOLDER NOT DEEMED A SHAREHOLDER. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as a holder of this Warrant, shall not be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of share capital of the Company for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Warrant be construed to confer upon the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as the Holder of this Warrant, any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue of stock, reclassification of stock, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise), receive notice of meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise, prior to the issuance to the Holder of the Warrant Shares which such Person is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Warrant. In addition, nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing any liabilities on the Holder to purchase any securities (upon exercise of this Warrant or otherwise) or as a shareholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

 

7.     REISSUANCE OF WARRANTS.

 

(a)     Transfer of Warrant. If this Warrant is to be transferred, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company and deliver the completed and executed Assignment Form, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, whereupon the Company will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the Holder a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)), registered as the Holder may request, representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares being transferred by the Holder and, if less than the total number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant is being transferred, a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)) to the Holder representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares not being transferred.

 

(b)     Lost, Stolen or Mutilated Warrant. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of any indemnification undertaking by the Holder to the Company in customary form and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Holder a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing the right to purchase the Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant.

 

(c)     Exchangeable for Multiple Warrants. This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder at the principal office of the Company, for a new Warrant or Warrants (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant, and each such new Warrant will represent the right to purchase such portion of such Warrant Shares as is designated by the Holder at the time of such surrender; provided, however, that no Warrants for fractional shares of Common Stock shall be given.

 

 
7
 

 

(d)     Issuance of New Warrants. Whenever the Company is required to issue a new Warrant pursuant to the terms of this Warrant, such new Warrant (i) shall be of like tenor with this Warrant, (ii) shall represent, as indicated on the face of such new Warrant, the right to purchase the Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant (or in the case of a new Warrant being issued pursuant to Section 7(a) or Section 7(c), the Warrant Shares designated by the Holder which, when added to the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the other new Warrants issued in connection with such issuance, does not exceed the number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant), (iii) shall have an issuance date, as indicated on the face of such new Warrant which is the same as the Issuance Date, and (iv) shall have the same rights and conditions as this Warrant.

 

8.         CAPITAL EVENT.

 

(a)     Shareholders Meeting. Promptly following the Issuance Date, the Company shall take all corporate action necessary to call a meeting of its shareholders (which may be its annual meeting) (the “Shareholders Meeting”), which shall occur not later than the 135th day after the Issuance Date, for the purpose of seeking approval of the Company’s shareholders to increase the number of shares of Common Stock the Company is authorized to issue in an amount sufficient to permit the exercise in full of the Warrants in accordance with their terms (a “Capital Event”). In connection therewith, the Company will as soon as reasonably practicable after the Issuance Date file with the Commission proxy materials (including a proxy statement and form of proxy) for use at the Shareholders Meeting and, after receiving and promptly responding to any comments of the Commission thereon, shall as soon as reasonably practicable mail such proxy materials to the shareholders of the Company. The Company will comply with Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder in relation to any proxy statement (as amended or supplemented, the “Proxy Statement”) and any form of proxy to be sent to the shareholders of the Company in connection with the Shareholders Meeting, and the Proxy Statement shall not, on the date that the Proxy Statement (or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto) is first mailed to shareholders or at the time of the Shareholders Meeting, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein not false or misleading, or omit to state any material fact necessary to correct any statement in any earlier communication with respect to the solicitation of proxies or the Shareholders Meeting which has become false or misleading. If the Company should discover at any time prior to the Shareholders Meeting, any event relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries or any of their respective affiliates, officers or directors that is required to be set forth in a supplement or amendment to the Proxy Statement, in addition to the Company’s obligations under the Exchange Act, the Company will promptly inform Roth Capital Partners, LLC (the “Placement Agent”) thereof. The Company’s Board of Directors shall recommend to the Company’s shareholders that the shareholders vote in favor of the Capital Event at the Shareholders Meeting and take all commercially reasonable action (including, without limitation, the hiring of The Proxy Advisory Group or another proxy solicitation firm of nationally recognized standing) to solicit the approval of the shareholders for the Capital Event. No later than two (2) Business Days following shareholder approval of the Capital Event, the Company shall file with the Secretary of State of Minnesota a certificate of amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to effect the Capital Event, which certificate of amendment shall provide that it shall become immediately effective upon filing. The Company shall issue a press release announcing the effectiveness of the Capital Event no later than one (1) Business Day after such filing. The date on which the Capital Event becomes effective is referred to herein as the “Capital Event Date.”

 

 
8
 

 

If the Capital Event Date does not occur on or prior to the six-month anniversary of the Issuance Date, the Holder shall have the right (the “Repurchase Right”), exercisable by written notice to the Company at any time prior to the Capital Event Date, to require the Company to repurchase this Warrant for a price equal to the greater of (i) the Black Scholes Value (substituting mutatis mutandis references to a Fundamental Transaction with references to the Repurchase Right and assuming that the underlying price per share is equal to the arithmetic average of the five VWAPs determined immediately following the public announcement of the exercise of the Repurchase Right) of this Warrant calculated as of the Issuance Date and (ii) the Black Scholes Value (substituting mutatis mutandis references to a Fundamental Transaction with references to the Repurchase Right and assuming that the underlying price per share is equal to the arithmetic average of the five VWAPs determined immediately following the public announcement of the exercise of the Repurchase Right) of this Warrant calculated as of the date the Holder exercises its Repurchase Right (calculated assuming the Exercisability Date is the date on which such Holder exercises its Repurchase Right) (the “Repurchase Price”). No later than one (1) Business Day following its receipt of notice of the exercise of the Holder’s Repurchase Right, the Company shall publicly announce that the Holder has exercised its Repurchase Right hereunder. No later than three (3) Business Days after the Holder exercises its Repurchase Right, the Company shall pay the Repurchase Price to the Holder in immediately available funds to an account specified by the Holder and upon such payment, the Holder will surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation.

 

(b)     Additional Registration Statement. No later than five (5) Business Days after the Capital Event Date, the Company shall file with the Commission a registration statement (which shall be on Form S-3 unless the Company is not then eligible to use Form S-3 to register the Warrant Shares) for the registration under the Securities Act of the Warrant Shares (the “Additional Registration Statement”), and it shall take such reasonable action as is necessary to qualify for sale, in those states in which the Warrant was initially offered by the Company, the Warrant Shares, provided, however, that no such qualification shall be required in any jurisdiction where, as a result thereof, the Company would be subject to service of general process or to taxation as a foreign corporation doing business in such jurisdiction. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Additional Registration Statement to become effective as promptly as practicable and in no event later than the time that this Warrant first becomes exercisable in accordance with its terms and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness and availability of such registration statement until the earlier of (i) the expiration of this Warrant in accordance with its terms or (ii) the time this Warrant is no longer outstanding. No Holder shall be named as an “underwriter” in such Additional Registration Statement without the Holder’s consent. The Company shall take all commercially reasonable action to include the Warrant Shares for listing on an Eligible Market (as defined in Section 16(e) below) on or prior to the date that the Warrant first becomes exercisable in accordance with its terms.

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8(b), the Company shall not be required to file or maintain the effectiveness of an Additional Registration Statement in the event that the Company delivers to the Placement Agent and the Holder an opinion (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Placement Agent and the Holder) of outside counsel to the Company reasonably satisfactory to the Placement Agent to the effect that the issuance of the Warrant Shares to the Holder is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and may be freely resold by the Holder if it is not an affiliate at the time of exercise without further registration under the Securities Act pursuant to a cashless exercise effected pursuant to the terms of this Warrant (the “Opinion of Counsel”). In the event that the Company (i) determines that it does not wish to file and maintain the effectiveness of an Additional Registration Statement in compliance with the terms of this paragraph, (ii) elects instead to permit the Holder of this Warrant to effect a cashless exercise of this Warrant pursuant to the terms of this Warrant, and (iii) delivers the Opinion of Counsel, no later than two (2) Business Days after the delivery of such Opinion of Counsel, the Company shall issue a press release announcing that it has determined not to file and maintain the effectiveness of an Additional Registration Statement, and explaining in reasonable detail the basis on which the Warrant Shares may be issued to and freely resold by the Holder upon the exercise of this Warrant. Any exercise of this Warrant after the issuance of such press release shall only be effected by cashless exercise as provided in Section 1(d) above.

 

The provisions of this Section 8(b) may not be modified, amended or deleted without the Placement Agent’s or the Holder’s prior written consent.

 

9.     NOTICES. The Company shall provide Holder with prompt written notice of all actions taken pursuant to this Warrant. Whenever notice is required to be given under this Warrant, unless otherwise provided herein, such notice shall be given in writing, will be mailed (a) if within the domestic United States by first-class registered or certified airmail, or nationally recognized overnight express courier, postage prepaid, or by facsimile or (b) if delivered from outside the United States, by International Federal Express or facsimile, and (c) will be deemed given (i) if delivered by first-class registered or certified mail domestic, three Business Days after so mailed, (ii) if delivered by nationally recognized overnight carrier, one Business Day after so mailed, (iii) if delivered by International Federal Express, two Business Days after so mailed and (iv) if delivered by facsimile or electronic mail, upon electronic confirmation of receipt, and will be delivered and addressed as follows:

10.     AMENDMENT AND WAIVER. Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions of this Warrant may be amended and the Company may take any action herein prohibited, or omit to perform any act herein required to be performed by it, only if the Company has obtained the written consent of the Required Holders; provided that any such amendment or waiver that complies with the foregoing but that disproportionately and adversely affects the rights and obligations of any holder of Warrants relative to the comparable rights and obligations of the other holders of Warrants shall require the prior written consent of such adversely affected holder of Warrants. Any such amendment shall apply to all Warrants and be binding upon all registered holders of such Warrants. 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 Warrants unless the same consideration (other than the reimbursement of legal fees) also is offered to all of the holders of the Warrants.

 

11.     GOVERNING LAW; CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. This Warrant shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York, without reference to the choice of law provisions thereof. The Company and, by accepting this Warrant, the Holder, each irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York located in New York County and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York for the purpose of any suit, action, proceeding or judgment relating to or arising out of this Warrant and the transactions contemplated hereby. Service of process in connection with any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on each party hereto anywhere in the world by the same methods as are specified for the giving of notices under this Warrant.
