		1.	DURATION AND EXERCISE OF WARRANTS



 


(a)          Exercise
Period. The Holder may exercise this Warrant in whole or in part on any Business Day on or before 5:00 P.M., Eastern Time,
on the Expiration Date, at which time this Warrant shall become void and of no value.


 


(b)          Exercise
Procedures.


 


(i)          While
this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable in accordance with Section 1(a), in addition to the manner set forth in Section
1(b)(ii) below, the Holder may exercise this Warrant in whole or in part at any time and from time to time by:


 


(A)         delivery
to the Company of a duly completed and executed copy of the notice of exercise attached as Exhibit A (the “Notice
of Exercise”);


 


(B)         surrender
of this Warrant to the Secretary of the Company at its principal offices or at such other office or agency as the Company may specify
in writing to the Holder; and


 


(C)         payment
of the then-applicable Exercise Price per share multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares being purchased upon exercise of the
Warrant (such amount, the “Aggregate Exercise Price”) made in the form of cash, or by certified check, wire
transfer, bank draft or money order payable in lawful money of the United States of America.


 


(ii)         Notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions of this Section 1(b), the Holder may not exercise this Warrant if and to the extent that such exercise
would require the Company to issue a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of its authorized but unissued shares of Common
Stock, less all amounts of Common Stock that have been reserved for issue upon the conversion of all outstanding securities convertible
into shares of Common Stock and the exercise of all outstanding options, warrants and other rights exercisable for shares of Common
Stock. If the Company does not have the requisite number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to permit the Holder
to exercise this Warrant, then the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the necessary stockholder consent
to increase the authorized number of shares of Common Stock to permit such Holder to exercise this Warrant pursuant to Section
1(b)(i).


 



    	2



    	 



    

 


(iii)        Upon
the exercise of this Warrant in compliance with the provisions of this Section 1(b), and except as limited pursuant to Section
1(b)(ii), the Company shall promptly issue and cause to be delivered to the Holder a certificate for the Warrant Shares purchased
by the Holder. Each exercise of this Warrant shall be effective immediately prior to the close of business on the date (the “Date
of Exercise”) that the conditions set forth in Section 1(b) have been satisfied, as the case may be. On the first Business
Day following the date on which the Company has received each of this original Warrant, the Notice of Exercise and the Aggregate
Exercise Price (the “Exercise Delivery Documents”), the Company shall transmit an acknowledgment of receipt
of the Exercise Delivery Documents to the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”). On or
before the fifth Business Day following the date on which the Company has received all of the Exercise
Delivery Documents (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, 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 DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, issue and dispatch by overnight
courier to the address as specified in the Notice of Exercise, 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 Delivery Documents, 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
of delivery of the certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares.


 


(v)          If
the Company shall fail for any reason or for no reason to issue to the Holder, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of the
Exercise Delivery Documents, 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 Business Day the Holder purchases (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 five (5) Business Days after the Holder’s
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 shares of Common Stock) shall terminate,
or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing such shares of Common
Stock 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 closing bid price on the date of exercise.


 


(c)          Partial
Exercise. This Warrant shall be exercisable, either in its entirety or, from time to time, for part only of the number of Warrant
Shares referenced by this Warrant; provided, that any such partial exercise must be for an integral number of Warrant Shares. If
this Warrant is exercised in part, the Company shall issue, at its expense, a new Warrant, in substantially the form of this Warrant,
referencing such reduced number of Warrant Shares that remain subject to this Warrant.


 



    	3



    	 



    

 


(d)          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 and resolve such dispute in accordance
with Section 15.


 


		2.	ISSUANCE OF WARRANT SHARES



 


(a)          The
Company covenants that all Warrant Shares will, upon issuance in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, be (i) duly authorized,
fully paid and non-assessable, and (ii) free from all liens, charges and security interests, with the exception of claims arising
through the acts or omissions of any Holder and except as arising from applicable Federal and state securities laws.


 


(b)          The
Company shall register this Warrant upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose in the name of the record holder
of such Warrant from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner thereof
for the purpose of any exercise thereof, any distribution to the Holder thereof and for all other purposes.


 


(c)          The
Company will not, by amendment of its articles of incorporation, by-laws 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 action necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights
of the Holder to exercise this Warrant, or against impairment of such rights.


 


		3.	ADJUSTMENTS OF EXERCISE PRICE, NUMBER AND TYPE OF WARRANT
SHARES



 


(a)          The
Exercise Price and the number of shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time
to time upon the occurrence of certain events described in this Section 3(a); provided, that notwithstanding the provisions
of this Section 3, the Company shall not be required to make any adjustment if and to the extent that such adjustment would require
the Company to issue a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, less all
amounts of Common Stock that have been reserved for issue upon the conversion of all outstanding securities convertible into shares
of Common Stock and the exercise of all outstanding options, warrants and other rights exercisable for shares of Common Stock.
If the Company does not have the requisite number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to make any adjustment, the
Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the necessary stockholder consent to increase the authorized number
of shares of Common Stock to make such an adjustment pursuant to this Section 3(a).


 



    	4



    	 



    

 


(i)          Subdivision
or Combination of Stock. In case the Company shall at any time subdivide (whether by way of stock dividend, stock split or
otherwise) its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior
to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Shares shall be proportionately increased, and conversely,
in case the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company shall be combined (whether by way of stock combination, reverse stock
split or otherwise) into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be
proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Shares shall be proportionately decreased. The Exercise Price and the Warrant
Shares, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of any successive event or events described in
this Section 3(a)(i).


 


(ii)         Dividends
in Stock, Property, Reclassification. If at any time, or from time to time, the holders of Common Stock (or any shares of stock
or other securities at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall have received or become entitled to receive,
without payment therefore:


 


(A)         any
shares of stock or other securities that are at any time directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock,
or any rights or options to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any of the foregoing by way of dividend or other distribution,
or


 


(B)         additional
stock or other securities or property (including cash) by way of spin-off, split-up, reclassification, combination of shares or
similar corporate rearrangement (other than shares of Common Stock issued as a stock split or adjustments in respect of which shall
be covered by the terms of Section 3(a)(i) above),


 


then and in each such case, the Exercise
Price and the number of Warrant Shares to be obtained upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted proportionately, and the
Holder hereof shall, upon the exercise of this Warrant, be entitled to receive, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock
receivable thereupon, and without payment of any additional consideration therefor, the amount of stock and other securities and
property (including cash in the cases referred to above) that such Holder would hold on the date of such exercise had such Holder
been the holder of record of such Common Stock as of the date on which holders of Common Stock received or became entitled to receive
such shares or all other additional stock and other securities and property. The Exercise Price and the Warrant Shares, as so adjusted,
shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of any successive event or events described in this Section 3(a)(ii).


 



    	5



    	 



    

 


(iii)        Reorganization,
Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale. If any recapitalization, reclassification or reorganization of the capital
stock of the Company, or any consolidation or merger of the Company with another corporation, or the sale of all or substantially
all of its assets or other transaction shall be effected in such a way that holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive
stock, securities or other assets or property (an “Organic Change”), then lawful and adequate provisions shall
be made by the Company whereby the Holder hereof shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive (in lieu of the shares
of the Common Stock of the Company immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented
by this Warrant) such shares of stock, securities or other assets or property as may be issued or payable with respect to or in
exchange for a number of outstanding shares of such Common Stock equal to the number of shares of such stock immediately theretofore
purchasable and receivable assuming the full exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant. In the event of any Organic Change,
appropriate provision shall be made by the Company with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of this Warrant to the
end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustments of the Exercise Price and of the number
of shares purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall thereafter be applicable, in relation to any shares
of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the exercise hereof. To the extent necessary to effect the foregoing
provisions, the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger or the corporation
purchasing such assets shall assume by written instrument reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder executed
and mailed or delivered to the registered Holder hereof at the last address of such Holder appearing on the books of the Company,
the obligation to deliver to such Holder such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions,
such Holder may be entitled to purchase. If
there is an Organic Change, then the Company shall cause to be mailed to the Holder at its last address as it shall appear on the
books and records of the Company, at least 10 calendar days before the effective date of the Organic Change, a notice stating the
date on which such Organic Change is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders
of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares for securities, cash, or other property delivered upon
such Organic Change; provided, that the failure to mail such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall
not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. The Holder is entitled to exercise this
Warrant during the 10-day period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice.
In any event, the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger or the corporation
purchasing such assets shall be deemed to assume such obligation to deliver to such Holder such shares of stock, securities or
assets even in the absence of a written instrument assuming such obligation to the extent such assumption occurs by operation of
law. 


 


(b)          Certificate
as to Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment pursuant to this Section 3, the Company at its expense
shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to each Holder of this Warrant
a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment
is based. The Company shall promptly furnish or cause to be furnished to such Holder a like certificate setting forth: (i) such
adjustments and readjustments; and (ii) the number of shares and the amount, if any, of other property which at the time would
be received upon the exercise of the Warrant.


 


(c)          Certain
Events. If any event occurs as to which the other provisions of this Section 3 are not strictly applicable but the lack of
any adjustment would not fairly protect the purchase rights of the Holder under this Warrant in accordance with the basic intent
and principles of such provisions, or if strictly applicable would not fairly protect the purchase rights of the Holder under this
Warrant in accordance with the basic intent and principles of such provisions, then the Company's Board of Directors will, in good
faith and subject to applicable law, make an appropriate adjustment to protect the rights of the Holder; provided, that
no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 3(c) will increase the Exercise Price or decrease the number of Warrant Shares as otherwise
determined pursuant to this Section 3.


 



    	6



    	 



    

 


(d)          Adjustment
of Exercise Price Upon Issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock. In the event the Company shall at any time prior
to the Expiration Date issue Additional Shares of Common Stock, as defined below, without consideration or for a consideration
per share less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issue, then the Exercise Price shall be reduced, concurrently
with such issue, to a price (calculated to the nearest cent) determined by multiplying such Exercise Price by a fraction, (A) the
numerator of which shall be (1) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issue plus (2) the number
of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration received or to be received by the Company for the total number of Additional
Shares of Common Stock so issued would purchase at such Exercise Price; and (B) the denominator of which shall be the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issue plus the number of such Additional Shares of Common Stock so
issued; provided that, (i) for the purpose of this Section 3(d), all shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or
exchange of convertible securities outstanding immediately prior to such issue shall be deemed to be outstanding, and (ii) the
number of shares of Common Stock deemed issuable upon conversion or exchange of such outstanding convertible securities shall be
determined without giving effect to any adjustments to the conversion or exchange price or conversion or exchange rate of such
convertible securities resulting from the issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock that is the subject of this calculation.
For purposes of this Warrant, “Additional Shares of Common Stock” shall mean all shares of Common Stock issued by the
Company after the Effective Date (including without limitation any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exchange
of any convertible securities or upon exercise of any option or warrant, on an as-converted basis), other than: (i) shares
of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion or exchange of any convertible securities or exercise of any options outstanding
on the Effective Date; (ii) shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the warrants issued in connection with
the Offering; (iii) shares of Common Stock issued or issuable by reason of a dividend, stock split, split-up or other distribution
on shares of Common Stock that is covered by Sections 3(a)(i) through 3(a)(iii) above; (iv) shares of Common Stock issued in a
registered public offering under the Securities Act; (v) shares of Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to the acquisition
of another corporation by the Corporation by merger, purchase of substantially all of the assets or other reorganization or to
a joint venture agreement; or (vi) shares of Common Stock issued or issuable to officers, directors and employees of, or consultants
to, the Company pursuant to stock grants, option plans, purchase plans or other employee stock incentive programs or arrangements
approved by the Board of Directors, or upon exercise of options or warrants granted to such parties pursuant to any such plan or
arrangement. The provisions of this Section 3(d) shall not operate to increase the Exercise Price. Whenever the Exercise Price
is adjusted pursuant to this Section 3(d), the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be
inversely proportionally adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant remains equal immediately before and after
any such adjustment.

(a)          Registration

other office or agency as the Company may specify in writing to the Holder, the Company shall register the transfer of all or any
portion of this Warrant. Upon such registration of transfer, the Company shall issue a new Warrant, in substantially the form of
this Warrant, evidencing the acquisition rights transferred to the transferee and a new Warrant, in similar form, evidencing the
remaining acquisition rights not transferred, to the Holder requesting the transfer.


 


(b)          Warrant
Exchangeable for Different Denominations. The Holder may exchange this Warrant for a new Warrant or Warrants, in substantially

hereunder, each of such new Warrants to be dated the date of such exchange and to represent the right to purchase such number of
Warrant Shares as shall be designated by the Holder. The Holder shall surrender this Warrant with duly executed instructions regarding
such re-certification of this Warrant to the Secretary of the Company at its principal offices or at such other office or agency
as the Company may specify in writing to the Holder.


 


(c)          Restrictions
on Transfers. This Warrant may not be transferred at any time without (i) registration under the Securities Act or (ii) an
exemption from such registration and a written opinion of legal counsel addressed to the Company that the proposed transfer of
the Warrant may be effected without registration under the Securities Act, which opinion will be in form and from counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the Company.


 


(d)          Permitted
Transfers and Assignments. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Section 4, the Holder may transfer, with or
without consideration, this Warrant or any of the Warrant Shares (or a portion thereof) to the Holder’s Affiliates (as such
term is defined under Rule 144 of the Securities Act) without obtaining the opinion from counsel that may be required by Section
4(c)(ii), provided, that the Holder delivers to the Company and its counsel certification, documentation, and other assurances
reasonably required by the Company’s counsel to enable the Company’s counsel to render an opinion to the Company’s
Transfer Agent that such transfer does not violate applicable securities laws.


 


		5.	MUTILATED OR MISSING WARRANT CERTIFICATE



 


If this Warrant is
mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, upon request by the Holder, the Company will, at its expense, issue, in exchange for and
upon cancellation of the mutilated Warrant, or in substitution for the lost, stolen or destroyed Warrant, a new Warrant, in substantially
the form of this Warrant, representing the right to acquire the equivalent number of Warrant Shares; provided, that, as
a prerequisite to the issuance of a substitute Warrant, the Company may require satisfactory evidence of loss, theft or destruction
as well as an indemnity from the Holder of a lost, stolen or destroyed Warrant.


 



    	8

The Company will pay
all transfer and stock issuance taxes attributable to the preparation, issuance and delivery of this Warrant and the Warrant Shares

for Warrant Shares or other securities in respect of the Warrant Shares to any person or entity other than to the Holder.


 


		7.	FRACTIONAL WARRANT SHARES



 


No fractional Warrant
Shares shall be issued upon exercise of this Warrant. Upon the full exercise of this Warrant, the Company, in lieu of issuing any
fractional Warrant Share, shall round up the number of Warrant Shares issuable to nearest whole share.


 


		8.	NO STOCK RIGHTS AND LEGEND



 


No holder of this Warrant,
as such, shall be entitled to vote or be deemed the holder of any other securities of the Company that may at any time be issuable
on the exercise hereof, nor shall anything contained herein be construed to confer upon the holder of this Warrant, as such, the
rights of a stockholder of the Company or the right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders
at any meeting thereof, or give or withhold consent to any corporate action or to receive notice of meetings or other actions affecting
stockholders (except as provided herein), or to receive dividends or subscription rights or otherwise (except as provide herein).
