THIS COMMON STOCK
PURCHASE WARRANT (the “Warrant”) certifies that, for value received, [_____________]or its assigns (the “Holder”)
is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on
or after March 31, 2016 (the “Initial Exercise Date”) and on or prior to the close of business on the five (5)
year anniversary of the Issue Date written above (the “Termination Date”) but not thereafter, to subscribe for
and purchase from Xenetic Biosciences, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), up to 1,000,000 shares (as
subject to adjustment hereunder, the “Warrant Shares”) of Common Stock. The purchase price of one share of Common
Stock under this Warrant shall be equal to the Exercise Price, as defined in Section 2(b).


 


Section 1.     Definitions.

Section 2.     Exercise.


 


a)          Exercise of Warrant. Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part,
at any time or times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Termination Date by delivery to the Company (or
such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered Holder at the address of
the Holder appearing on the books of the Company) of a duly executed facsimile copy of the Notice of Exercise form annexed hereto
and within three (3) Trading Days of the date said Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company, the Company shall have received
payment of the aggregate Exercise Price of the shares thereby purchased by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United
States bank. 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. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall
not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available
hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for
cancellation within three (3) Trading Days of the date the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company. Partial exercises
of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect
of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant
Shares purchased. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date
of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection of a technical nature to any Notice of Exercise Form to the Holder in
writing within one (1) Business Day of receipt of such Notice of Exercise Form and the Holder shall promptly re-deliver a revised
Notice of Exercise Form to the Company; provided that any such objection shall not invalidate such Notice of Exercise Form when
properly completed by the Holder. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by
reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of
Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.


 


b)          Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of the Common Stock under this Warrant shall be $0.42, subject to adjustment
hereunder (the “Exercise Price”).


 


c)          Mechanics
of Exercise.


 






    	2



    	 



    

 


i.          Delivery of Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. Warrant Shares purchased hereunder shall be transmitted by the Transfer
Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s prime broker with The Depository Trust Company through its
Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and
either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant
Shares by the Holder or (B) the shares are eligible for resale by the Holder without volume or manner-of-sale limitations pursuant
to Rule 144, and otherwise by physical delivery to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that
is three (3) Trading Days after the latest of (A) the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise and (B) surrender of this
Warrant (if required) (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”). The Warrant Shares shall be deemed to
have been issued, and Holder or any other person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of
record of such shares for all purposes, as of the date the Warrant has been exercised, with payment to the Company of the Exercise
Price and all taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 2(c)(vi) prior to the issuance of such shares,
having been paid. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the Warrant Shares subject to a Notice of Exercise
by the Warrant 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
Notice of Exercise), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the fifth (5th) Trading Day after such
liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after such Warrant Share Delivery Date until such Warrant Shares are
delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise.


 


ii.         Delivery
of New Warrants Upon Exercise. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request of a Holder
and upon surrender of this Warrant certificate, at the time of delivery of the Warrant Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant
evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall
in all other respects be identical with this Warrant.


 


iii.        Rescission
Rights. If the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section
2(c)(i) by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.


 






    	3



    	 



    

 


iv.       Compensation
for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. In addition to any other rights available to the Holder,
if the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares pursuant to an exercise on or before
the Warrant Share Delivery Date, and if after such date the Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction
or otherwise) or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a
sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”),
then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder the amount, if any, by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price
(including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying
(1) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue
times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (B) at the option of the
Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored
(in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would
have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Holder
purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of shares
of Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately
preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice
indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount
of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law
or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s
failure to timely deliver shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.


 


v.          No
Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise
of this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the
Company shall, at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction
multiplied by the Exercise Price or round up to the next whole share.


 


vi.         Charges,
Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or
other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of Warrant Shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company,
and such Warrant Shares shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; provided,
however, that in the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant
when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder and the
Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.
The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Exercise.


 






    	4



    	 



    

 


vii.        Closing
of Books. The Company will not close its stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of
this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof.


 


(d)     Cashless
Exercise. This Warrant may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise”
in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B)
(X)] by (A), where:




 


(A) = the VWAP on the Trading
Day immediately preceding the date on which Holder elects to exercise this Warrant by means of a “cashless exercise,”
as set forth in the applicable Notice of Exercise;


 


(B) = the Exercise Price of this
Warrant, as adjusted hereunder; and


 


(X) = the number
of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant if such exercise
were by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise.


 


(e)     Cash
Settlement. If on any day the Holder delivers a Notice of Exercise and the number of authorized and unissued shares of Common
Stock on such date does not at least equal the number of shares of Common Stock to be delivered to the Holder pursuant to such
Notice of Exercise, the Company shall, within three (3) Trading Days of the date of such Notice of Exercise, deliver to the Holder
an amount in cash equal to the number of shares of Common Stock so unavailable multiplied by the difference between the Exercise
Price on such date and the closing price of the Common Stock on the Trading Market on such date.


 


Section 3.     Certain
Adjustments.


 


a)          Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend
or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities
payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company
upon exercise of this Warrant); (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares; (iii) combines
(including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares; or (iv) issues by
reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then in each case the Exercise Price
shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares,
if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately after such event, and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted
such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant shall remain unchanged. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3(a)
shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend
or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.


 






    	5



    	 



    

 


b)          Subsequent Rights Offerings. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 3(a) above, if at any time the Company
grants, issues or sells any Common Stock Equivalents or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata
to the record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be
entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have
acquired 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) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or
sale of such Purchase Rights, 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 grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights.


 


c)          Pro Rata Distributions. During such time as this Warrant is outstanding, if the Company shall declare or make any
dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of shares of Common Stock, by way of
return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or
options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction)
(a "Distribution"), at any time after the issuance of this Warrant, 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) immediately before the date of 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.


 






    	6



    	 



    

 


d)          Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) the Company, directly or indirectly,
in one or more related transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company,
directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially
all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange
offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to sell,
tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or more of the
outstanding Common Stock, (iv) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification,
reorganization or recapitalization of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively
converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, or (v) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more
related transactions consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation,
a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with another Person or group of Persons whereby such other
Person or group acquires more than 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (not including any shares of Common Stock held
by the other Person or other Persons making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other Persons making or party to,
such stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination) (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), then,
upon any subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that would have
been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the option of the Holder,
the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation,
and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental
Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such
Fundamental Transaction. For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted
to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common
Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in
a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common
Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder
shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental
Transaction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event of a Fundamental Transaction, the Company or any Successor
Entity (as defined below) shall, at the Holder’s option, exercisable at any time concurrently with, or within 30 days after,
the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, purchase this Warrant from the Holder by paying to the Holder an amount of cash
equal to the Black Scholes Value of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date of the consummation of such Fundamental
Transaction. “Black Scholes Value” means the value of this Warrant based on the Black and Scholes Option Pricing
Model obtained from the “OV” function on Bloomberg, L.P. (“Bloomberg”) determined as of the day
of consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction for pricing purposes and reflecting (A) a risk-free interest rate corresponding
to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental
Transaction and the Termination Date, (B) an expected volatility equal to the greater of 100% and the 100 day volatility obtained
from the HVT function on Bloomberg as of the Trading Day immediately following the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental
Transaction, (C) the underlying price per share used in such calculation shall be the sum of the price per share being offered
in cash, if any, plus the value of any non-cash consideration, if any, being offered in such Fundamental Transaction and (D) a
remaining option time equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction and
the Termination Date. The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the
survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant
and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3(e) pursuant to written agreements in form
and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental
Transaction and shall, at the option of the Holder, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Warrant a security of the Successor
Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant which is exercisable for a
corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the shares of Common
Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant)
prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an exercise price which applies the exercise price hereunder to such shares of
capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction
and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of shares of capital stock and such exercise price being for the purpose
of protecting the economic value of this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which
is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor
Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions
of this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor
Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this
Warrant and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein.

e)          Calculations. All calculations under this Section 3 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a
share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section 3, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding
as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.


 


f)           Increase of Warrant Shares. [Reserved]


 


g)          Notice to Holder.


 


i.         Adjustment to Exercise Price. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section
3 or there is a New Issuance, the Company shall promptly mail to the Holder a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such
adjustment and any resulting adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring
such adjustment.


 


ii.        Notice to Allow Exercise by Holder. If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever
form) on the Common Stock, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common
Stock, (C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or
purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall
be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a
party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any compulsory share exchange whereby
the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property, or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary
dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be mailed
to the Holder at its last address as it shall appear upon the Warrant Register of the Company, at least 20 calendar days prior
to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken
for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as
of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants
are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange 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 of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification,
consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; 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. To the extent
that any notice provided hereunder constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of
the Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K.
The Holder shall remain entitled to exercise this Warrant during the period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective
date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein.

Section 4.     Transfer
of Warrant.


 


a)          Transferability. Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws and the conditions set forth in Section
4(d) hereof, this Warrant and all rights hereunder (including, without limitation, any registration rights) are transferable, in
whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company or its designated agent, together with
a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney
and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required,
such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable,
and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant
evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company unless the Holder
has assigned this Warrant in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company within three (3) Trading
Days of the date the Holder delivers an assignment form to the Company assigning this Warrant full. The Warrant, if properly assigned
in accordance herewith, may be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued.


 


b)          New Warrants. This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid
office of the Company, together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued,
signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section 4(a), as to any transfer which may be involved
in such division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or
Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance with such notice. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated
the Initial Exercise Date and shall be identical with this Warrant except as to the number of Warrant Shares issuable pursuant
thereto.


 


c)          Warrant Register. The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that
purpose (the “Warrant Register”), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may
deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any
distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.


 


d)          Representation by the Holder. The Holder, by the acceptance hereof, represents and warrants that it is acquiring
this Warrant and, upon any exercise hereof, will acquire the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, for its own account and
not with a view to or for distributing or reselling such Warrant Shares or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act
or any applicable state securities law, except pursuant to sales registered or exempted under the Securities Act.


 






    	9



    	 



    

 


Section 5.     Miscellaneous.


 


a)          No Rights as Stockholder Until Exercise. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends
or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 2(c)(i), except as expressly
set forth in Section 3.


 


b)          Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence
reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate relating to
the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in
the case of the Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock
certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such
cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.


 


c)          Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of
any right required or granted herein shall not be a Business Day, then, such action may be taken or such right may be exercised
on the next succeeding Business Day.


 


d)          Authorized Shares.


 


The Company covenants
that, during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient
number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant.
The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged
with the duty of issuing the necessary Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company
will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without
violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Trading Market upon which the Common Stock may be
listed. The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented
by this Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant and payment for such Warrant Shares in accordance
herewith, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by
the Company in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such
issue).


 






    	10



    	 



    

 


Except and to
the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending
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 of this
Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions
as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable
therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (ii) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate
in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant
and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory
body having jurisdiction thereof, as may be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.


 


Before taking
any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the
Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary
from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.


 


e)          Governing Law; Jurisdiction. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation
of this Warrant shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York,
without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretations,
enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Warrant (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective
affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state
and federal courts sitting in the City of New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the
state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or
in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement
of this Warrant), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it
is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient
venue for such proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served
in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence
of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Warrant and agrees that such service shall constitute
good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right
to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. If either party shall commence an action, suit or proceeding to enforce
any provisions of this Warrant, then the prevailing party in such action, suit or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party
for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution
of such action or proceeding.

f)           Restrictions. The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not
registered, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws.


 


g)          Nonwaiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part
of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the Holder’s rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding
the fact that all rights hereunder terminate on the Termination Date. If the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with
any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to the Holder such amounts
as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, including
those of appellate proceedings, incurred by the Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing
any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.


 


h)          Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries required or permitted to be provided hereunder
shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective on the earliest of: (a) the date of transmission, if such notice or
communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number set forth on the signature pages attached hereto at or prior to
5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on a Trading Day; (b) the next Trading Day after the date of transmission, if such notice or communication
is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number set forth on the signature pages attached hereto on a day that is not a Trading
Day or later than 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on any Trading Day; (c) the second (2nd) Trading Day following the
date of mailing, if sent by U.S. nationally recognized overnight courier service; or (d) upon actual receipt by the party to whom
such notice is required to be given. The address for such notices and communications shall be as set forth on the signature pages
attached hereto.


 


i)           Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Holder to exercise
this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to
any liability of the Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability
is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.


 


j)           Remedies. The Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of
damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would
not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees
to waive and not to assert the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.


 


k)          Successors and Assigns. Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced
hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Company and the successors
and permitted assigns of Holder. The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of any Holder from time to time
of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by the Holder or holder of Warrant Shares.


 


l)           Amendment. This Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the
Company and the Holder.


 


m)         Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective
and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such
provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions
or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.


 


n)          Headings. The headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose,
be deemed a part of this Warrant.
