3.5.2.In the event of a Reduction Event, until such time that Nasdaq Stockholder Approval is obtained, the number of Option Securities exercisable by the Holders shall be reduced in the following manner:
(a)first, the number of Options exercisable shall be reduced until the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable under the remaining number of Option Securities equals the Stockholder Approval Threshold;
(b)second, if the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable under the Option Securities exceeds the Stockholder Approval Threshold after giving effect to such reduction in Section 3.5.2(a), then the number of unvested Warrants that would become exercisable by the Holders upon vesting shall be reduced until the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable under the remaining number of Option Securities equals the Stockholder Approval Threshold; provided, that for purposes of effecting any reduction pursuant to this Section 3.5.2(b), (A) the unvested Series F Warrants that would become exercisable by the Holders upon vesting shall be reduced to the maximum extent necessary prior to effecting any reduction of the unvested Series E Warrants that would become exercisable by the Holders upon vesting, (B) the unvested Series E Warrants that would become exercisable by the Holders upon vesting shall be reduced to the maximum extent necessary prior to effecting any reduction of the unvested Series D Warrants that would become exercisable by the Holders upon vesting, (C) the unvested Series D Warrants that would become exercisable by the Holders upon vesting shall be reduced to the maximum extent necessary prior to effecting any reduction of the unvested Series C Warrants that would become exercisable by the Holders upon vesting and (D) the unvested Series C Warrants that would become exercisable by the Holders upon vesting shall be reduced to the maximum extent necessary prior to effecting any reduction

​
​




of the unvested Series B Warrants that would become exercisable by the Holders upon vesting;
(c)third, if the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable under the Option Securities exceeds the Stockholder Approval Threshold after giving effect to such reduction in Section 3.5.2(b), then the number of vested Warrants exercisable by the Holders shall be reduced until the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable under the remaining number of Option Securities equals the Stockholder Approval Threshold; provided, that for purposes of effecting any reduction pursuant to this Section 3.5.2(c), (A) the vested Series F Warrants exercisable by the Holders shall be reduced to the maximum extent necessary prior to effecting any reduction of the vested Series E Warrants exercisable by the Holders, (B) the vested Series E Warrants exercisable by the Holders shall be reduced to the maximum extent necessary prior to effecting any reduction of the vested Series D Warrants exercisable by the Holders, (C) the vested Series D Warrants exercisable by the Holders shall be reduced to the maximum extent necessary prior to effecting any reduction of the vested Series C Warrants exercisable by the Holders and (D) the vested Series C Warrants exercisable by the Holders shall be reduced to the maximum extent necessary prior to effecting any reduction of the vested Series B Warrants exercisable by the Holders.

3.5.3.The Company shall not issue any Warrant Shares upon an exercise or otherwise pursuant to the terms of the Warrant, and any exercise shall be null and void and treated as if never made, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, a Holder together with its affiliates collectively would beneficially own in excess of 19.99% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion, except that the Maximum Percentage shall not apply in the event that the Company obtains the approval of its stockholders as required by the applicable rules of Nasdaq for issuances of shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Option Securities in excess of such limitation. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by a Holder and its affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock held by the Holder and its affiliates plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon an exercise with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A) exercise of such Holder’s remaining Option Securities and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company beneficially owned by the HOlder or its affiliates subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained in this Section. For purposes of this Section, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (as defined below). For purposes of determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock a Holder may acquire pursuant to the terms of this Warrant without exceeding the Maximum Percentage, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Current Report on Form 8-K or other public filing with the SEC, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other written notice by the Company or its transfer

​
​




agent, if any, setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (the “Reported Outstanding Share Number”). If the Company receives an exercise from a Holder at a time when the actual number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is less than the Reported Outstanding Share Number, the Company shall notify the Holder in writing of the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding and, to the extent that such exercise would otherwise cause the Holder’s beneficial ownership, as determined pursuant to this Section, to exceed the Maximum Percentage, the Holder must notify the Company of a reduced number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased pursuant to such exercised. For any reason at any time, upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within one (1) Business Day confirm orally and in writing or by electronic mail to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In the event that the issuance of shares of Common Stock to a Holder upon an exercise or otherwise pursuant to the terms of the Warrants results in a Holder and its affiliates being deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, more than the Maximum Percentage of the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the number of shares so issued in excess of the Maximum Percentage for the Holder and its affiliates (the “Excess Shares”) shall be deemed null and void and shall be cancelled ab initio, and a Holder shall not have the power to vote or to transfer the Excess Shares. For purposes of clarity, any shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms of the Warrant in excess of the Maximum Percentage shall not be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Holder for any purpose including for purposes of Section 13(d) or Rule 16a-1(a)(1) of the Exchange Act. No prior inability to make an exercise pursuant to this paragraph shall have any effect on the applicability of the provisions of this paragraph with respect to any subsequent determination of convertibility. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section to the extent necessary to correct this paragraph (or any portion of this paragraph) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended beneficial ownership limitation contained in this Section or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitation contained in this paragraph may not be waived and shall apply to a successor in interest to this Warrant.

4.Terms of Exercise. 
4.1.Exercise.
4.1.1.Subject to the terms hereof, this Warrant shall be exercisable, at the election of the Holder thereof, either in full or from time to time in part during the period commencing at the opening of business on the applicable Exercisability Date and until 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on May 17, 2031 (the “Expiration Time”), and shall entitle the Holder thereof to receive Warrant Shares from the Company through a Cash Exercise pursuant to Section 4.1.2 or, at the Holder’s election, a Net Share Settlement pursuant to Section 4.1.3; provided that Holders shall be able to exercise their Warrants only if the exercise of such Warrants is exempt from, or in compliance with, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and such securities are qualified for sale or exempt from qualification under the applicable securities laws of the states in which the various holders of the Warrants or other persons to whom it is proposed that any Warrant Shares be issued on exercise of the Warrants reside. No adjustments as to dividends will be made upon exercise of the Warrants. Each Warrant not 

11
​
​




exercised prior to the Expiration Time shall become void and all rights thereunder and all rights in respect thereof under this Warrant shall cease as of such time.
4.1.2.In order to exercise all or any of the Warrants, the Holder thereof must deliver to the Company (i) such Warrants, (ii) the form of election to exercise provided herein duly filled in and signed (the “Exercise Notice”) and on which such Holder may elect to have the exercise of Warrants set forth in the Exercise Notice (the “Warrant Exercise”) net share settled pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 4.1.3 (a “Net Share Settlement,” and such election to net share settle, a “Net Share Settlement Election”), and (iii) if such Holder does not make a Net Share Settlement Election, payment in full, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account or accounts to be designated by the Company, of the Exercise Price for each whole Warrant Share as to which the Warrant is exercised (such exercise, a “Cash Exercise”).
4.1.3.If the Holder makes a Net Share Settlement Election pursuant to Section 4.1.2 with respect to a Warrant Exercise, then the Warrant Exercise shall be “net share settled” whereupon the Warrant will be converted into shares of Common Stock pursuant to a cashless exercise, after which the Company will issue to the Holder the Warrant Shares equal to the result obtained by (i) subtracting B from A, (ii) dividing the result by A, and (iii) multiplying the difference by C as set forth in the following equation:

X = ((A - B)/A) × C 
where:
	X
	=
	the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise pursuant to this paragraph (c).

	A
	=
	the Market Value on the day immediately preceding the date on which the Holder delivers the applicable Exercise Notice.

	B
	=
	the Exercise Price.

	C
	=
	the number of shares of Common Stock as to which the Warrants are then being exercised (the “Exercise Shares”).



​
If the foregoing calculation results in a negative number, then no shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon exercise pursuant to this paragraph (c).
4.1.4.Upon compliance with the provisions set forth above, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered with all reasonable dispatch to or upon the written order of the Holder and in such name or names as the Holder may designate, a certificate or certificates for the number of whole Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of such Warrants or other securities or property to which such Holder is entitled. Such certificate or certificates or other securities or property shall be deemed to have been issued, and any person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such Warrant Shares or other securities or property, as of the date of the surrender of such Warrants, notwithstanding that 

12
​
​




the stock transfer books of the Company shall then be closed or the certificates or other securities or property have not been delivered. 
4.1.5.If less than all the Warrants represented by a Warrant certificate are exercised, such Warrant certificate shall be surrendered and a new Warrant certificate of the same tenor and for the number of Warrants which were not exercised shall be executed by the Company, registered in such name or names as may be directed in writing by the Holder, and shall deliver the new Warrant certificate to the Person or Persons entitled to receive the same.
4.1.6.Certificates, if any, representing Warrant Shares shall bear a Restricted Legend (with all references to Warrants therein replaced by references to Common Stock, and with such changes thereto as the Company may deem appropriate) if (i) the Warrants for which they were issued carried a Restricted Legend or (ii) the Warrant Shares are issued in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act (other than the exemption provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act), in each case until and unless the circumstances set forth in Section 3.1.2 apply to such Warrant Shares, and any transfers thereof shall comply with the Restricted Legend.
4.1.7.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, unless otherwise agreed by the Company, the Warrant Shares shall be in uncertificated, book entry form as permitted by the bylaws of the Company and the Delaware General Corporation Law.
4.1.8.If a Holder elects to partially exercise a Warrant, the number of Warrant Shares deliverable upon such partial exercise must be not less than 10,000 Warrant Shares.
4.1.9.Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not deliver, or cause to be delivered, any securities, without applicable restrictive legend pursuant to the exercise of a Warrant unless (a) a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the issuance of the Common Stock to the Holder is effective and a current prospectus relating to the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants is available for delivery to the Holder of the Warrant or (b) in the opinion of counsel to the Company, the exercise of the Warrants is exempt from the registration requirements of the Act and such securities are qualified for sale or exempt from qualification under applicable securities laws of the states or other jurisdictions in which the Holder resides. Warrants may not be exercised by, or securities issued to, any Holder unless the issuance of the Common Stock is registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from the registration requirements thereunder is available, nor may Warrants be exercised by, or securities issued to, any Holder in any state in which such exercise or issuance would be unlawful. 
4.1.10.In no event will the Company be obligated to pay a Holder any cash consideration upon exercise or otherwise “net cash settle” the Warrant.

4.2.Conditional Exercise. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if an exercise of any portion of a Warrant is to be made in connection with a public offering or a sale of the Company (pursuant to a merger, sale of stock, or otherwise), such exercise may at the election of the Holder be conditioned upon the consummation of such transaction, in which case such 

13
​
​




exercise shall not be deemed to be effective until immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction.
4.3.Opinion of Counsel. The Company shall provide an opinion of counsel prior to the issuance of Warrants in connection with establishing a reserve of Warrants and related Common Stock. The opinion shall state that (i) the offer, issuance and sale of the Warrants solely in the manner contemplated by this Warrant and the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon exercise solely in the manner contemplated by this Warrant and the applicable Warrants, as applicable, are registered under the Securities Act or are exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act; provided, however, that such counsel shall express no opinion as to any subsequent sale or resale and (ii) the Warrants have been validly issued and that the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and payment of the exercise price provided in the Warrants will, upon such issuance, be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
4.4.Change of Control. In the event of a Change of Control in which the Company is not the surviving entity (or if the Company is the surviving entity, but is a subsidiary of a new parent entity), (i) the Company shall deliver or to cause to be delivered to such Holder, in exchange for its outstanding Warrants, one or more warrants in the surviving entity or new parent entity, as applicable, that has the same rights, preferences and privileges as the Warrants, subject to appropriate adjustments to be made to the number of shares underlying such warrants and the applicable exercise price to reflect any exchange ratio or similar construct applicable in connection with such Change of Control and (ii) notwithstanding any other provision hereof, all unvested Warrants shall vest and become immediately exercisable immediately prior to the consummation of such Change of Control transaction.

5.Covenants of the Company.
5.1.Payment of Taxes. The Company will pay all documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes in respect of the issuance or delivery of Warrant Shares upon the exercise of Warrants; provided that the exercising Holder shall be required to pay any such tax or taxes which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue of any Warrants or any Warrant Shares in a name other than that of the registered holder of a Warrant surrendered upon exercise.
5.2.Rule 144A(d)(4) Information. For so long as any of the Warrants or Warrant Shares remain outstanding and constitute “restricted securities” under Rule 144, the Company will make available upon request to any prospective purchaser of the Warrants or Warrant Shares or beneficial owner of Warrants or Warrants Shares in connection with any sale thereof the information required by Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act; provided that such information shall be deemed conclusively to be made available pursuant to this Section 5.2 if the Company has filed such information with the Commission via its Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System and such information is publicly available on such system.
5.3.Reservation of Warrant Shares; Listing; Non-Circumvention.

14
​
​




5.3.1.The Company will at all times reserve and keep available for issuance and delivery, free and clear of all liens, security interests, charges and other encumbrances or restrictions on sale and free and clear of all preemptive rights, such number of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company as will from time to time be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Warrants, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to increase the authorized number of shares of Common Stock or other securities if at any time there shall be insufficient unissued shares of Common Stock or other securities to permit such reservation.
5.3.2.The Company or, if appointed, the transfer agent for the Common Stock (the “Transfer Agent”) and every subsequent transfer agent for any securities of the Company issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants will be irrevocably authorized and directed at all times to reserve such number of authorized securities as shall be required for such purpose. The Company will keep a copy of this Warrant on file with the Transfer Agent and with every subsequent transfer agent for any of the Company’s securities issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. The Company will furnish such Transfer Agent a copy of all notices of adjustments, and certificates related thereto, transmitted to each Holder pursuant to Section 6.1.4 hereof.
5.3.3.The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Warrant Shares, immediately upon such exercise, to be listed on Nasdaq or the principal securities exchange on which shares of Common Stock or other securities constituting Warrant Shares are listed at the time of such exercise. The Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary to ensure that all Warrant Shares are issued without violation by the Company of any applicable law or governmental regulation or any requirements of any securities exchange upon which shares of Common Stock or other securities constituting Warrant Shares may be listed at the time of such exercise.
5.3.4.The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its organizational documents or bylaws, or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, 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, and will at all times in good faith carry out all the provisions of this Warrant and take all action as may be required to protect the rights of the Holder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of the Warrants.

5.4.Tax Treatment of Net Share Settlement. The Company treat any Net Share Settlement as qualifying for nonrecognition of the applicable Holder’s gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes, including adopting a “plan of reorganization” treating such Net Share Settlement as occurring pursuant to a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(E) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

6.Adjustments.
6.1.The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of each Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of the events 

15
​
​




enumerated in this Section 6.1. In the event that, at any time as a result of the provisions of this Section 6.1, the Holders of the Warrants shall become entitled upon subsequent exercise to receive any shares of Capital Stock of the Company other than Common Stock, the number of such other shares so receivable upon exercise of this Warrant shall thereafter be subject to adjustment from time to time in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions contained herein.
6.1.1.Adjustments for Change in Capital Stock.
(a)If the Company pays a dividend (or other distribution) in shares of Common Stock to all holders of the Common Stock, then the Exercise Price in effect immediately following the record date for such dividend (or distribution) shall be divided by the following fraction:

OS1
_______________________
OS0
where
	OS0
	=
	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the record date for such dividend or distribution; and

	OS1
	=
	the sum of (A) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the record date for such dividend or distribution and (B) the total number of shares of Common Stock constituting such dividend.



​
In any such event, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of each Warrant at the time of the record date for such dividend or distribution shall be proportionately adjusted so that the Holder, after such date, shall be entitled to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock that such Holder would have owned or been entitled to receive in respect of the shares of Common Stock subject to the Warrant after such date had the Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such date.
(b)If the Company issues to all holders of shares of the Common Stock rights, options or warrants entitling them, for a period of not more than 60 days from the date of issuance of such rights, options or warrants, to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at less than the Market Value determined on the Ex-Date for such issuance, then the Exercise Price in effect immediately following the close of business on the Ex-Date for such issuance shall be divided by the following fraction:


16
​
​




OS0 + X
_______________________
OS0 + Y
​
where
	OS0
	=
	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the record date for such issuance;

	X
	=
	the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants; and

	Y
	=
	the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants divided by the Market Value determined as of the Ex-Date for such issuance.



​
In any such event, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of each Warrant shall be increased to the number obtained by dividing (x) the product of (1) the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant before such adjustment, and (2) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the distribution giving rise to this adjustment by (y) the new Exercise Price determined in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.
To the extent that such rights, options or warrants are not exercised prior to their expiration or shares of Common Stock are otherwise not delivered pursuant to such rights or warrants upon the exercise of such rights or warrants, the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares shall be readjusted to the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares that would have then been in effect had the adjustment made upon the issuance of such rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of the delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered. If such rights, options or warrants are only exercisable upon the occurrence of certain triggering events, then the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares shall not be adjusted until such triggering events occur. In determining the aggregate offering price payable for such shares of Common Stock, the conversion agent shall take into account any consideration received for such rights, options or warrants and the value of such consideration (if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors).
(c)If the Company subdivides, combines or reclassifies the shares of Common Stock into a greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then 

17
​
​




the Exercise Price in effect immediately following the effective date of such share subdivision, combination or reclassification shall be divided by the following fraction:

OS1
_______________________
OS0
where
	OS0
	=
	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective date of such share subdivision, combination or reclassification; and

	OS1
	=
	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the opening of business on the effective date of such share subdivision, combination or reclassification.



​
In any such event, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of each Warrant at the time of the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification shall be proportionately adjusted so that the Holder, after such date, shall be entitled to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock that such Holder would have owned or been entitled to receive in respect of the shares of Common Stock subject to the Warrant after such date had the Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such date.
(d)If the Company distributes to all holders of shares of Common Stock evidences of indebtedness, shares of Capital Stock (other than Common Stock) or other assets (including securities, but excluding any dividend or distribution referred to in clause (i) above; any rights or warrants referred to in clause (ii) above; and any dividend of shares of Capital Stock of any class or series, or similar equity interests, of or relating to a subsidiary or other business unit in the case of certain spin-off transactions as described below), then the Exercise Price in effect immediately following the close of business on the record date for such distribution shall be divided by the following fraction:

SP0
_______________________
SP0 – FMV
where

18
​
​




	SP0
	=
	the Closing Sale Price per share of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Date; and

	FMV
	=
	the fair market value of the portion of the distribution applicable to one share of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Date as determined by the Board of Directors.



​
​
In any such event, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of each Warrant shall be increased to the number obtained by dividing (x) the product of (1) the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant before such adjustment, and (2) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the distribution giving rise to this adjustment by (y) the new Exercise Price determined in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.
In a spin-off, where the Company makes a distribution to all holders of shares of Common Stock consisting of Capital Stock of any class or series, or similar equity interests of, or relating to, a subsidiary or other business unit the Exercise Price shall be adjusted on the fourteenth Trading Day after the effective date of the distribution by dividing the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such fourteenth Trading Day by the following fraction:
MP0 + MPS
_______________________
MP0
where
	MP0
	=
	the average of the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock over each of the first 10 Trading Days commencing on and including the fifth Trading Day following the effective date of such distribution; and

	MPS
	=
	the average of the closing sale price of the Capital Stock or equity interests representing the portion of the distribution applicable to one share of Common Stock over each of the first 10 Trading Days commencing on and including the fifth Trading Day following the effective date of such distribution, or, as reported in the principal securities exchange or quotation system or market on which such shares are traded, or if not traded on a national or regional securities exchange or over-the-counter market, the fair market value of the Capital Stock or equity interests representing the portion of the distribution applicable to one share of Common Stock on such date as determined by the Board of Directors.



​

19
​
​




In any such event, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of each Warrant shall be increased to the number obtained by dividing (x) the product of (1) the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant before such adjustment, and (2) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the distribution giving rise to this adjustment by (y) the new Exercise Price determined in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.
In the event that such distribution described in this clause (iv) is not so made, the Exercise Price shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors publicly announces its decision not to pay such dividend or distribution, to the Exercise Price that would then be in effect if such dividend distribution had not been declared.
(e)In case the Company effects a Pro Rata Repurchase of Common Stock, then the Exercise Price shall be adjusted to the price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the effective date of such Pro Rata Repurchase by a fraction of which the numerator shall be (i) the product of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such Pro Rata Repurchase and (y) the Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the first public announcement by the Company or any of its Affiliates of the intent to effect such Pro Rata Repurchase, minus (ii) the aggregate purchase price of the Pro Rata Repurchase, and of which the denominator shall be the product of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such Pro Rata Repurchase minus the number of shares of Common Stock so repurchased and (2) the Market Value per share of Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the first public announcement by the Company or any of its Affiliates of the intent to effect such Pro Rata Repurchase. In such event, the number of Warrant Shares be adjusted to the number obtained by dividing (A) the product of (I) the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant before such adjustment, and (II) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the Pro Rata Repurchase giving rise to this adjustment by (B) the new Exercise Price determined in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.
(f)In case of any Business Combination or reclassification of Common Stock (other than a reclassification of Common Stock referred to in Section 6.1.1(c)), the Holder’s right to receive Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrants shall be converted into the right to exercise the Warrants to acquire the number of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) that the Common Stock issuable (at the time of such Business Combination or reclassification) upon exercise of each Warrant immediately prior to such Business Combination or reclassification would have been entitled to receive upon consummation of such Business Combination or reclassification; and in any such case, if necessary, the provisions set forth herein with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Holder shall be appropriately adjusted so as to be applicable, as nearly as may reasonably be, to the Holder’s right to exercise each Warrant in exchange for any shares of stock or other securities or property 

20
​
​




pursuant to this Section 6.1.1(f). In determining the kind and amount of stock, securities or the property receivable upon exercise of each Warrant following the consummation of such Business Combination, if the holders of Common Stock have the right to elect the kind or amount of consideration receivable upon consummation of such Business Combination, then the Holder shall have the right to make a similar election (including being subject to similar proration constraints) upon exercise of each Warrant with respect to the number of shares of stock or other securities or property that the Holder will receive upon exercise of a Warrant.
(g)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no adjustment under this Section 6.1 need be made to the Exercise Price unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 2.0% of the Exercise Price then in effect. Any lesser adjustment shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time of and together with the next subsequent adjustment, if any, which, together with any adjustment or adjustments so carried forward, shall amount to an increase or decrease of at least 2.0% of such Exercise Price.
(h)The Company reserves the right to make such reductions in the Exercise Price in addition to those required in the foregoing provisions as it considers advisable in order that any event treated for Federal income tax purposes as a dividend of stock or stock rights will not be taxable to the recipients. In the event the Company elects to make such a reduction in the Exercise Price, the Company shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder if and to the extent that such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the reduction of the Exercise Price.
(i)Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 6.1.1, rights or warrants distributed by the Company to all holders of Common Stock entitling the holders thereof to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Company’s Capital Stock (either initially or under certain circumstances), which rights or warrants, until the occurrence of a specified event or events (“Trigger Event”): (A) are deemed to be transferred with such shares of Common Stock; (B) are not exercisable; and (C) are also issued in respect of future issuances of Common Stock, shall be deemed not to have been distributed for purposes of this Section 6.1.1 (and no adjustment to the Exercise Price under this Section 6.1.1 will be required) until the occurrence of the earliest Trigger Event, whereupon such rights and warrants shall be deemed to have been distributed and an appropriate adjustment (if any is required) to the Exercise Price shall be made under Section 6.1.1(b). In addition, in the event of any distribution (or deemed distribution) of rights or warrants, or any Trigger Event or other event with respect thereto that was counted for purposes of calculating a distribution amount for which an adjustment to the Exercise Price under this Section 6.1.1 was made, (1) in the case of any such rights or warrants that shall all have been redeemed or repurchased without exercise by any holders thereof, the Exercise Price shall be readjusted 

21
​
​




upon such final redemption or repurchase to give effect to such distribution or Trigger Event, as the case may be, as though it were a cash distribution, equal to the per share redemption or repurchase price received by a holder or holders of Common Stock with respect to such rights or warrants (assuming such holder had retained such rights or warrants), made to all holders of Common Stock as of the date of such redemption or repurchase, and (2) in the case of such rights or warrants that shall have expired or been terminated without exercise thereof, the Exercise Price shall be readjusted as if such expired or terminated rights and warrants had not been issued. To the extent that the Company has a rights plan or agreement in effect upon exercise of the Warrants, which rights plan provides for rights or warrants of the type described in this clause, then upon exercise of the Warrants, the Holder will receive, in addition to the Common Stock to which he is entitled, a corresponding number of rights in accordance with the rights plan, unless a Trigger Event has occurred and the adjustments to the Exercise Price with respect thereto have been made in accordance with the foregoing. In lieu of any such adjustment, the Company may amend such applicable stockholder rights plan or agreement to provide that upon exercise of the Warrants, the Holders will receive, in addition to the Common Stock issuable upon such exercise, the rights that would have attached to such Common Stock if the Trigger Event had not occurred under such applicable stockholder rights plan or agreement.

6.1.2.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 6.1, no adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made with respect to any distribution or other transaction if Holders are entitled to participate in such distribution or transaction as if they held a number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants immediately prior to such event, without having to exercise their Warrants.
6.1.3.If the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or other distribution, and shall thereafter (and before the dividend or distribution has been paid or delivered to stockholders) abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend or distribution, then thereafter no adjustment in the Exercise Price then in effect shall be required by reason of the taking of such record.
6.1.4.Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted, the Company shall provide the notices required by Section 6.3 hereof.
6.1.5.Company Determination of Fair Market Value. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, whenever the Board of Directors is permitted or required to determine fair market value, such determination shall be made in good faith.
6.1.6.When Issuance or Payment May be Deferred. In any case in which this Section 6.1 shall require that an adjustment in the Exercise Price be made effective as of a record date for a specified event, the Company may elect to defer until the occurrence of such event (i) issuing to the Holder of any Warrant exercised after such record date the Warrant Shares and other Capital Stock of the Company, if any, issuable upon such exercise over and above the Warrant Shares and other Capital Stock of the Company, if any, issuable upon such exercise on the basis of the Exercise Price and (ii) paying to such Holder any amount in cash in lieu of a 

22
​
​




fractional share pursuant to Section 6.2 hereof; provided that the Company shall deliver to such Holder a due bill or other appropriate instrument evidencing such Holder’s right to receive such additional Warrant Shares, other Capital Stock and cash upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment.
(a)Form of Warrants. Irrespective of any adjustments in the Exercise Price or the number or kind of shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants, Warrants theretofore or thereafter issued may continue to express the same price and number and kind of shares as are stated in the Warrants initially issued.
(b)No Adjustments Below Par Value. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no adjustment will be made to the Exercise Price if, as a result of such adjustment, the Exercise Price per Warrant Share would be less than the par value of the Company’s Common Stock (or other Capital Stock for which any Warrant is exercisable); provided that, before taking any action which would but for the foregoing limitation in this sentence have caused an adjustment to reduce the Exercise Price below the then par value (if any) of its Common Stock (or other Capital Stock for which any Warrant is exercisable), the Company will take any corporate action which would, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary in order that the Company may validly issue Warrant Shares at the Exercise Price as so adjusted.

6.2.Fractional Interests. The Company shall not be required to issue fractional Warrant Shares or scrip representing fractional shares on the exercise of Warrants. If more than one Warrant shall be presented for exercise in full at the same time by the same Holder, the number of full Warrant Shares which shall be issuable upon the exercise thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of Warrant Shares issuable on exercise of the Warrants so presented. If any fraction of a Warrant Share would, except for the provisions of this Section 6.2, be issuable on the exercise of any Warrants (or specified portion thereof), the Company shall issue one additional whole Warrant Share in lieu of such fraction.
6.3.Notices to Warrant Holders. 
6.3.1.Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to Section 6.1 hereof, the Company shall promptly thereafter cause to be given to each of the Holders (i) a certificate of the Chief Financial Officer of the Company setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculations are based and setting forth the number of Warrant Shares (or portion thereof) or other securities or property issuable after such adjustment in the Exercise Price, upon exercise of a Warrant, which certificate shall be a rebuttable presumption of the correctness of the matters set forth therein, and (ii) written notice of such adjustments by first-class mail, postage prepaid. Where appropriate, such notice may be given in advance and included as a part of the notice required to be mailed under the other provisions of this Section 6.3.
6.3.2.In case:

23
​
​




(a)the Company shall authorize the issuance to all holders of shares of Common Stock of rights, options or warrants to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock or of any other subscription rights or warrants;
(b)the Company shall authorize the distribution to all holders of shares of Common Stock of evidences of its indebtedness or assets (other than dividends or distributions referred to in Section 6.1.1 hereof);
(c)of any reclassification or change of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination), or a tender offer or exchange offer for shares of Common Stock by the Company;
(d)of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company; or
(e)the Company proposes to take any action which would require an adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to Section 6.1 hereof; then the Company shall cause to be given to each of the Holders, at least 10 days prior to any applicable record date, or promptly in the case of events for which there is no record date, by first-class mail, postage prepaid, a written notice stating (x) the date as of which the holders of record of shares of Common Stock to be entitled to receive any such rights, options, warrants or distribution are to be determined, (y) the initial expiration date set forth in any tender offer or exchange offer for shares of Common Stock, or (z) the date on which any such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is expected to become effective or consummated, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of record of shares of Common Stock shall be entitled to exchange such shares for securities or other property, if any, deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding up. The failure to give the notice required by this Section 6.3 or any defect therein shall not affect the legality or validity of any distribution, right, option, warrant, consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, or the vote upon any action.

6.4.No Rights as Stockholders. Nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as conferring upon the holders of Warrants the right to vote or to consent or to receive notice as stockholders in respect of the meetings of stockholders or the election of directors of the Company or any other matter, or any rights whatsoever, including the right to receive dividends, as stockholders of the Company, or the right to share in the assets of the Company in the event of its liquidation, dissolution or winding up, except in respect of Common Stock received following exercise of Warrants. In addition, nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing any liabilities on the Holder as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

7.Miscellaneous.

7.3.3.Where this Warrant provides for notice, the notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and the waiver will be the equivalent of the notice.

7.4.Supplements and Amendments. 
7.4.1.The Company may amend or supplement the Warrants without notice to or the consent of any Holder:
(a)to cure any defective or inconsistent provision or mistake in the Warrants in a manner that is not inconsistent with the provisions of the Warrants and that does not adversely affect the rights, preferences and privileges of the Warrants or any Holder; or
(b)to evidence and provide for the acceptance of an appointment hereunder by a warrant agent or successor warrant agent. 

7.4.2.Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.4.1 or 7.4.3, the Warrants may be amended by and only by means of a written amendment signed by the Company and the Holders of a majority of the outstanding Warrants. Any amendment or modification of or supplement to the Warrants, any waiver of any provision of the Warrants, and any consent to any departure by the Company from the terms of any provision of the Warrants shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which such amendment, supplement, modification, waiver or consent has been made or given. In addition, any term of a specific Warrant may be amended or waived with the written consent of the Company and the Holder of such Warrant.
7.4.3.Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.4.2, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment or waiver may not:
(a)increase the Exercise Price;
(b)reduce the term of the Warrants;

27
​
​




(c)make a material and adverse change that does not equally affect all Warrants; or 
(d)decrease the number of shares of Common Stock, cash or other securities or property issuable upon exercise of the Warrants,

except, in each case, for adjustments expressly provided for in this Warrant.
7.4.4.It is not necessary for Holders to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver if their consent approves the substance thereof.
7.4.5.An amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section will become effective on receipt by the Company of written consents from the Holders of the requisite percentage of the outstanding Warrants. After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section becomes effective, the Company will send to the Holders affected thereby a notice describing the amendment, supplement or waiver in reasonable detail. Any failure of the Company to send such notice, or any defect therein, will not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture or waiver.
7.4.6.After an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, it will bind every Holder unless it is of the type requiring the consent of each Holder affected. If the amendment, supplement or waiver is of the type requiring the consent of each Holder affected, the amendment, supplement or waiver will bind each Holder that has consented to it and every subsequent Holder of a Warrant with respect to which consent was granted.
7.4.7.If an amendment, supplement or waiver changes the terms of a Warrant, the Company may require the Holder to deliver it to the Company so that the Company may place an appropriate notation of the changed terms on the Warrant and return it to the Holder, or exchange it for a new Warrant that reflects the changed terms. However, the effectiveness of the amendment, supplement or waiver is not affected by any failure to annotate or exchange Warrants in this fashion.

7.5.Governing Law. The Warrants shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware (without giving effect to principles of conflicts of laws). Any proceeding or action against any party relating to the foregoing shall be brought in the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York City in the borough of Manhattan or, if it has or can acquire jurisdiction, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York located therein, and the parties shall submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of each such court in any such proceeding or action. The parties hereby irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection which they may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such dispute brought in such court or any defense of inconvenient forum for the maintenance of such dispute. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a judgment in any such dispute may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

28
​
​




7.6.Headings. The headings contained herein are for the sole purpose of convenience of reference, and shall not in any way limit or affect the meaning or interpretation of any of the terms or provisions of this Warrant.
7.7.Entire Agreement. This Warrant (together with the other agreements and documents being delivered pursuant to or in connection with this Warrant) constitutes the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings of the parties, oral and written, with respect to the subject matter hereof.
7.8.Binding Effect. This Warrant shall inure solely to the benefit of and shall be binding upon, the Holder and the Company and their respective successors, legal representatives and assigns, and no other person shall have or be construed to have any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of or by virtue of this Warrant or any provisions herein contained.
7.9.Waiver, Etc. The failure of the Company or the Holder to at any time enforce any of the provisions of this Warrant shall not be deemed or construed to be a waiver of any such provision, nor to in any way affect the validity of this Warrant or any provision hereof or the right of the Company or any Holder to thereafter enforce each and every provision of this Warrant. No waiver of any breach, non-compliance or non-fulfillment of any of the provisions of this Warrant shall be effective unless set forth in a written instrument executed by the party or parties against whom or which enforcement of such waiver is sought; and no waiver of any such breach, non-compliance or non-fulfillment shall be construed or deemed to be a waiver of any other or subsequent breach, non-compliance or non-fulfillment.
7.10.Exchange. At the election of the Company or Stonepeak, the Company shall issue the Warrants in the future in certificated form under a warrant agreement between the Company and a warrant agent, on terms substantially the same as those set forth herein, and each Holder agrees, upon notice from the Company, to exchange this Warrant for a warrant certificate issued pursuant to the warrant agreement evidencing the rights of the Holders hereunder.
7.11.Further Assurances. The Company shall perform, acknowledge and deliver or cause to be performed, acknowledged and delivered all such further and other acts, documents, instruments and assurances as may be reasonably required for carrying out or performing the provisions of this Warrant.
