THIS CERTIFIES THAT, for value received,
                     or its assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled to subscribe for and purchase at the Exercise Price (defined
below) from CHANNELADVISOR CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation, with its principal office at 2701 Aerial Center Parkway, Morrisville, NC 27560 (the “Company”), up to that number of
Exercise Shares of the Common Stock of the Company (the “Common Stock”) determined in accordance with the terms hereof. This Warrant is being issued as one of a series of warrants (the “Warrants”) pursuant to the
terms of that certain Stock Purchase Agreement, of even date herewith, by and among the Company and the Purchasers named therein (the “Purchase Agreement”). 
 1. DEFINITIONS. As used herein, the following terms shall have the following respective meanings: 
 (a) “Exercise Period” shall mean the period commencing with the date hereof and ending seven (7) years from the date of this Warrant. 

(b) “Exercise Price” shall mean $0.685 per share, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 4 below.

 (c) “Exercise Shares” shall mean
                     shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, subject to adjustment pursuant to the terms herein, including but
not limited to adjustment pursuant to Section 4 below. 
 2. EXERCISE OF
WARRANT. 
 2.1 Procedure. The rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part
at any time during the Exercise Period, by delivery of the following to the Company at its address set forth above (or at such other address as it may designate by notice in writing to the Holder): 

(a) An executed Notice of Exercise in the form attached hereto; 







 (b) Payment of the Exercise Price either (i) in cash or by check, (ii) by
cancellation of indebtedness, or (iii) or in accordance with Section 2.2 below; and 
 (c) This Warrant.

 Upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, a certificate or certificates for the Exercise Shares so purchased, registered
in the name of the Holder or persons affiliated with the Holder, if the Holder so designates, shall be issued and delivered to the Holder within a reasonable time after the rights represented by this Warrant shall have been so exercised. In the
event that this Warrant is being exercised for less than all of the then-current number of Exercise Shares purchasable hereunder, the Company shall, concurrently with the issuance by the Company of the number of Exercise Shares for which this
Warrant is then being exercised, issue a new Warrant exercisable for the remaining number of Exercise Shares purchasable hereunder. 
 The
person in whose name any certificate or certificates for Exercise Shares are to be issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of such shares on the date on which this Warrant was surrendered and payment
of the Exercise Price was made, irrespective of the date of delivery of such certificate or certificates, except that, if the date of such surrender and payment is a date when the stock transfer books of the Company are closed, such person shall be
deemed to have become the holder of such shares at the close of business on the next succeeding date on which the stock transfer books are open. 
 2.2 Net Exercise. Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if the fair market value of one share of the Company’s Common Stock is greater than the Exercise Price (at the date of
calculation as set forth below), in lieu of exercising this Warrant by payment of cash, the Holder may elect to receive shares equal to the value (as determined below) of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being canceled) by surrender of this
Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with the properly endorsed Notice of Exercise in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula: 

 

			
		  	 X = Y (A-B)

		  	    A

		
	Where X =    	  	the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Holder
		
	Y =    	  	the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable under the Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised, the portion of the Warrant being canceled (at the date of
such calculation)
		
	A =    	  	the fair market value of one share of the Company’s Common Stock (at the date of such calculation)
		
	B =    	  	Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation)

 For purposes of the above calculation, the fair market value of one share of Common Stock shall mean the average of the
closing bid and asked prices of Common Stock quoted in the over-the-counter market in which the Common Stock is traded or the closing price quoted on any exchange on which the Common Stock is listed, whichever is applicable, as published in the
Western Edition of The Wall Street Journal for the ten (10) trading days prior to the date of determination of fair market value (or such shorter period of time during which such stock was traded over-the-counter or on such exchange);
provided, however, that in the event that this Warrant is exercised pursuant to this Section 2.2 in connection with the 

  
 -2-









 
Company’s initial public offering of its Common Stock, the fair market value per share shall be the per share offering price of the Common Stock to the public. If the Common Stock is not
traded on the over-the-counter market or on an exchange, the fair market value shall be the price per share that the Company could obtain from a willing buyer for Common Stock sold by the Company from authorized but unissued shares, as such price
shall be determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors (excluding for purposes of this calculation any director designated by the Holder or any of the Holder’s affiliates). 

3. COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY. 

3.1 Covenants as to Exercise Shares. The Company covenants and agrees that all Exercise Shares that may be issued upon the
exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance, be validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable, and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof. The Company further covenants
and agrees that the Company will at all times during the Exercise Period, have authorized and reserved, free from preemptive rights, a sufficient number of shares of its Common Stock to provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this
Warrant. If at any time during the Exercise Period the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to permit exercise of this Warrant, the Company will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its
counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes. 
 3.2 No Impairment. Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer
of assets, consolidation, merger, 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 to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company, but will at all
times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the exercise rights of the Holder against impairment. 

4. ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE SHARES AND
EXERCISE PRICE. 
 4.1 Stock Splits, Combinations, etc. In the event of changes in the
outstanding Common Stock of the Company by reason of stock dividends, split-ups, recapitalizations, reclassifications, combinations or exchanges of shares, separations, reorganizations, liquidations, or the like, the number and class of shares
available under the Warrant in the aggregate and the Exercise Price shall be correspondingly adjusted to give the Holder of the Warrant, on exercise for the same aggregate Exercise Price, the total number, class, and kind of shares as the Holder
would have owned had the Warrant been exercised prior to the event and had the Holder continued to hold such shares until after the event requiring adjustment. The form of this Warrant need not be changed because of any adjustment in the number of
Exercise Shares subject to this Warrant. The foregoing provisions of this Section 4.1 shall similarly apply to successive stock dividends, split-ups, recapitalizations, reclassifications, combinations or exchanges of shares, separations,
reorganizations, liquidations, or the like and to the stock or securities of any other entity that are at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant. 
 4.2 Merger, Sale of Assets, etc. If at any time while this Warrant, or any portion hereof, is outstanding and unexpired there shall occur (i) the sale, conveyance, exchange, license or other
transfer of all or substantially all of the intellectual property or assets of the Company, (ii) any acquisition of the Company by means of a consolidation, stock exchange, merger or other form of corporate reorganization of the Company with
any other corporation in which the Company’s stockholders prior to the consolidation or merger own less than a majority of the voting securities of the surviving entity (or if the surviving entity is a subsidiary, its parent) or (iii) any
transaction or series of related transactions 

  
 -3-









 
following which the Company’s stockholders prior to such transaction or series of related transactions own less than a majority of the voting securities of the Company (collectively, a
“Change of Control”), this Warrant shall cease to represent the right to receive Exercise Shares and shall automatically and without further action represent the right to receive upon exercise of this Warrant, during the Exercise
Period and upon payment of the Exercise Price then in effect, the number of shares of stock or other securities or property offered to the Company’s holders of Common Stock in connection with such Change of Control that a holder of the shares
deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant would have been entitled to receive in such Change of Control if this Warrant had been exercised immediately before such Change of Control, subject to further adjustment as provided in this Section 4.
The foregoing provisions of this Section 4.2 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, consolidations, mergers, sales and transfers and to the stock or securities of any other entity that are at the time receivable upon the exercise
of this Warrant. If the per share consideration payable to the holder hereof in connection with any such transaction is in a form other than cash or marketable securities, then the value of such consideration shall be determined in good faith by the
Company’s Board of Directors. In all events, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors) shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Warrant with respect to the rights and
interests of the Holder after the transaction, to the end that the provisions of this Warrant shall be applicable after that event, as near as reasonably may be, in relation to any shares or other property deliverable after that event upon exercise
of this Warrant. 
 5. FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional shares shall be issued upon the
exercise of this Warrant as a consequence of any adjustment pursuant hereto. All Exercise Shares (including fractions) issuable upon exercise of this Warrant may be aggregated for purposes of determining whether the exercise would result in the
issuance of any fractional share. If, after aggregation, the exercise would result in the issuance of a fractional share, the Company shall, in lieu of issuance of any fractional share, pay the Holder otherwise entitled to such fraction a sum in
cash equal to the product resulting from multiplying the then current fair market value of an Exercise Share by such fraction. 

6. NOTICE OF CERTAIN EVENTS. The Company shall provide to the Holder
at least twenty (20) days advance written notice of any event that would result in an adjustment to the Exercise Shares or Exercise Price pursuant to Section 4 hereof. 

7. NO STOCKHOLDER RIGHTS. This Warrant in and of itself shall not entitle the Holder
to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company. 
 8. REGISTRATION
RIGHTS. The Exercise Shares shall be “Registrable Securities” as such term is defined in the Third Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement among the Company and certain of its stockholders, as the
same may be amended from time to time (the “Investor Rights Agreement”), and shall have the rights set forth therein. In the event that this Warrant is transferred pursuant to Section 9 hereof to a Holder who is not a
party to the Investor Rights Agreement, such transferee shall be required to executed a counterpart signature page to the Investor Rights Agreement for such Exercise Shares to continue to be Registrable Securities thereunder. 

9. TRANSFER OF WARRANT. Subject to applicable laws and the restriction on transfer
set forth on the first page of this Warrant, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, by the Holder in person or by duly authorized attorney, upon delivery of this Warrant and the form of assignment attached hereto to any transferee
designated by the Holder that is an affiliate of the Holder. The transferee shall sign an investment letter in form and substance satisfactory to the Company and shall be subject to all terms and conditions of this Warrant. 

10. LOST, STOLEN, MUTILATED OR DESTROYED
WARRANT. If this Warrant is lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed, the Company may, on such terms as to indemnity or otherwise as it may 

  
 -4-









 
reasonably impose (which shall, in the case of a mutilated Warrant, include the surrender thereof), issue a new Warrant of like denomination and tenor as the Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated or
destroyed. Any such new Warrant shall constitute an original contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the allegedly lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed Warrant shall be at any time enforceable by anyone. 

11. NOTICES, ETC. All notices required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be
deemed effectively given: (a) upon personal delivery to the party to be notified, (b) when sent by confirmed telex or facsimile if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, if not, then on the next business day, (c) five
(5) days after having been sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or (d) one (1) day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier, specifying next day delivery, with written
verification of receipt. All communications shall be sent to the Company or to the Holder at their respective addresses set forth above or at such other address as the Company or the Holder may designate by ten (10) days advance written notice
to the other parties hereto. 
 12. ACCEPTANCE. Receipt of this Warrant by the Holder shall constitute
acceptance of and agreement to all of the terms and conditions contained herein. 
 13. GOVERNING
LAW. This Warrant and all rights, obligations and liabilities hereunder shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware. 
 14. AMENDMENT. Any term of this Warrant may be amended or waived with the written consent of the Company and Holders of at least a majority in interest of the outstanding Warrants
issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, provided that all such Warrants are similarly affected. Upon the effectuation of such amendment or waiver in conformance with this Section 14, the Company shall promptly give written notice thereof to
the record holders of the Warrants who have not previously consented thereto in writing.
