This Warrant is being issued by the Company to the Registered Holder in connection with the consulting agreement by and between the Registered Holder and the Company. All capitalized terms used and not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Initial Agreement.
The shares of Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant and the exercise price per share, as adjusted from time to time pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant, are hereinafter referred to as the “Warrant Stock” and the “Exercise Price,” respectively.
1. Exercise.
(a) Method of Exercise. Subject to the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, Section 1(c) below, this Warrant may be exercised by the Registered Holder, in whole or in part, beginning on the Exercise Date and at any time prior to the Expiration Date, by (i) surrendering this Warrant, with the form appended hereto as Exhibit A duly executed by such Registered Holder, or by such Registered Holder’s duly authorized attorney, at the principal office of the Company, or at such other office or agency as the Company may designate in writing prior to the date of such exercise, accompanied by payment in full of the Exercise Price payable with respect to the number of shares of Warrant Stock purchased upon such exercise, or (ii) by cashless exercise pursuant to Section 1(b) below. If exercised pursuant to subsection 1(a)(i), the Exercise Price must be paid by cash, check or wire transfer in immediately available funds.
(b) Cashless Exercise. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein to the contrary, the Registered Holder may elect to receive, without the payment by the Registered Holder of the aggregate Exercise Price in respect of the shares of Common Stock to be acquired, shares of Common Stock of equal value to the value of this Warrant, or any specified portion hereof, by the surrender of this Warrant (or such portion of this Warrant being so exercised) together with a Cashless Exercise Election Notice, in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit B, duly executed, to the Company. Thereupon, the Company shall issue to the Registered Holder such number of fully paid, validly issued and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is computed using the following formula:
X = Y (A - B) | |
A |
where
X = the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Registered Holder is entitled upon such cashless exercise;
Y = the total number of shares of Common Stock covered by this Warrant for which the Registered Holder has surrendered purchase rights at such time for cashless exercise (including both shares to be issued to the Registered Holder and shares as to which the purchase rights are to be canceled as payment therefor);
A = the “Market Price” (as defined below) of one share of Common Stock as at the date the net issue election is made; and
B = the Warrant Exercise Price in effect under this Warrant at the time the cashless exercise election is made.
For the purposes of this Section 1(b), “Market Price” as of a particular date (the “Valuation Date”) shall mean the following: (a) if the Common Stock is then listed on a national stock exchange, the closing sale price of one share of Common Stock on such exchange on the last trading day prior to the Valuation Date; (b) if the Common Stock is then quoted on the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc.’s OTC Bulletin Board (the “Bulletin Board”) or such similar quotation system or association, the closing sale price of one share of Common Stock the Bulletin Board or such other quotation system or association on the last trading day prior to the Valuation Date or, if no such closing sale price is available, the average of the high bid and the low asked price quoted thereon on the last trading day prior to the Valuation Date; or (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed on a national stock exchange or quoted on the Bulletin Board or such other quotation system or association, the fair market value of one share of Common Stock as of the Valuation Date, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company and the Registered Holder. If the Common Stock is not then listed on a national securities exchange, the Bulletin Board or such other quotation system or association, the Board of Directors of the Company shall respond promptly, in writing, to an inquiry by the Registered Holder prior to the exercise hereunder as to the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company. In the event that the Board of Directors of the Company and the Registered Holder are unable to agree upon the fair market value in respect of subpart (c) of this paragraph, the Company and the Registered Holder shall jointly select an appraiser, who is experienced in such matters. The decision of such appraiser shall be final and conclusive, and the cost of such appraiser shall be borne equally by the Company and the Registered Holder. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a payment date is fixed.
(c) Limitations on Exercises. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Warrant, this Warrant shall not be exercisable by the Holder hereof to the extent (but only to the extent) that the Warrant Stock issuable on any exercise of this Warrant is in excess of the average trading daily volume of the Company’s common stock during the ten trading days prior to the date of exercise as reported on Bloomberg, To the extent the above limitation applies, the determination of whether this Warrant shall be exercisable or exchangeable (vis-à-vis other convertible, exercisable or exchangeable securities owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates) and of which such securities shall be exercisable or exchangeable (as among all such securities owned by the Holder) shall, subject to such Maximum Percentage limitation, be determined on the basis of the first submission to the Company for conversion, exercise or exchange (as the case may be
(d) Effective Time of Exercise. Each exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the day on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered to the Company (the “Exercise Date”) as provided in this Section 1. At such time, the person or persons in whose name or names any certificates for Warrant Stock shall be issuable upon such exercise as provided in Section 1(c) below shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of the Warrant Stock represented by such certificates.
(e) Delivery to Holder. As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in whole or in part, and in any event within five (5) business days thereafter (the “Warrant Stock Delivery Date”), the Company at its expense will cause to be issued in the name of, and delivered to, the Registered Holder, or as such Registered Holder (upon payment by such Registered Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct:
(i) a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Warrant Stock to which such Registered Holder shall be entitled, and
(ii) in case such exercise is in part only, a new warrant or warrants (dated the date hereof) of like tenor, calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of shares of Warrant Stock equal (giving effect to any adjustment therein) to the number of such shares called for on the face of this Warrant minus the number of such shares purchased by the Registered Holder upon such exercise as provided in Section 1(a) or Section 1(c) above.
2. Adjustments.
(a) Stock Splits and Dividends.

If outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be combined into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall, simultaneously with the effectiveness of such combination, be proportionately increased. When any adjustment is required to be made in the Exercise Price, the number of shares of Warrant Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be changed to the number determined by dividing (i) an amount equal to the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment, by (ii) the Exercise Price in effect immediately after such adjustment.
(b) Merger Sale, Reclassification, Etc. In case of any (i) consolidation or merger (including a merger in which the Company is the surviving entity), (ii) sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or distribution of property to shareholders (other than distributions payable out of earnings or retained earnings), or reclassification, change or conversion of the outstanding securities of the Company or of any reorganization of the Company (or any other corporation the stock or securities of which are at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant) or any similar corporate reorganization on or after the date hereof, then and in each such case the holder of this Warrant, upon the exercise hereof at any time thereafter shall be entitled to receive, in lieu of the stock or other securities and property receivable upon the exercise hereof prior to such consolidation, merger, sale or other disposition, reclassification, change, conversion or reorganization, the stock or other securities or property to which such holder would have been entitled upon such consummation if such holder had exercised this Warrant immediately prior thereto, all subject to further adjustment as provided in Section 2(a) or 2(b); and in each such case, the terms of this Section 2 shall be applicable to the shares of stock or other securities properly receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant after such consolidation, merger, sale or other disposition, reclassification, change, conversion or reorganization.
