Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Warrant shall not be exercisable by the Holder, in whole or in part, and the Company shall not give effect to any such exercise of this Warrant, if, after giving effect to such exercise, the Holder, together with any affiliate of the Holder (including any person or company acting jointly or in concert with the Holder) would in the aggregate beneficially own, or exercise control or direction over that number of voting securities of the Company which is 9.99% or greater of the total issued and outstanding voting securities of the Company immediately after giving effect to such exercise; provided, however, that upon the Holder providing the Company with sixty-one (61) days notice (the “Waiver Notice”) that the Holder would like to waive this Section 18 with regard to any or all shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, this Section 18 will be of no force or effect with regard to all or a portion of this Warrant referenced in the Waiver Notice. For purposes of this Section 18, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.”
