exercise notice in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Exercise Notice”), shares of Common Stock of the Company, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 4. 
  
 1.2 Fair Market Value. For purposes hereof, the “Fair Market Value” of a share of Common Stock as of a
particular date (the “Determination Date”) shall mean: 
  
 (a) If the Company’s Common Stock is traded on the American Stock Exchange or another national exchange or is quoted on the National or SmallCap Market of The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. (“Nasdaq”), then
the closing or last sale price, respectively, reported for the last business day immediately preceding the Determination Date. 
  
 (b) If the Company’s Common Stock is not traded on the American Stock Exchange or another national exchange or on the Nasdaq but is

 (c) Except as provided in clause (d) below, if the Company’s Common Stock is not publicly traded, then

education and training to pass on the matter to be decided. 
  
 (d) If the Determination Date is the date of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up, or any event deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up pursuant to the Company’s charter, then all amounts to be
payable per share to holders of the Common Stock pursuant to the charter in the event of such liquidation, dissolution or winding up, plus all other amounts to be payable per share in respect of the Common Stock in liquidation under the charter,
assuming for the purposes of this clause (d) that all of the shares of Common Stock then issuable upon exercise of the Warrant are outstanding at the Determination Date. 
  
 1.3 Company Acknowledgment. The Company will, at the time of the exercise of the Warrant, upon the request of the
holder hereof acknowledge in writing its continuing obligation to afford to such holder any rights to which such holder shall continue to 
  

 2 








 be entitled after such exercise in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. If the Holder shall fail to make any
such request, such failure shall not affect the continuing obligation of the Company to afford to such holder any such rights. 
  
 1.4 Trustee for Warrant Holders. In the event that a bank or trust company shall have been appointed as trustee for the holders of the Warrant
pursuant to Subsection 3.2, such bank or trust company shall have all the powers and duties of a warrant agent (as hereinafter described) and shall accept, in its own name for the account of the Company or such successor person as may be entitled
thereto, all amounts otherwise payable to the Company or such successor, as the case may be, on exercise of this Warrant pursuant to this Section 1. 
  
 2. Procedure for Exercise. 
  
 2.1 Delivery of Stock Certificates, Etc., on Exercise. The Company agrees that the shares of Common Stock purchased upon exercise of this Warrant
shall be deemed to be issued to the Holder as the record owner of such shares as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered and payment made for such shares in accordance herewith. As soon as practicable
after the exercise of this Warrant in full or in part, and in any event within three (3) business days thereafter, the Company at its expense (including the payment by it of any applicable issue taxes) will cause to be issued in the name of and
delivered to the Holder, or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct in compliance with applicable securities laws, a certificate or certificates for the number of duly and validly issued, fully paid
and nonassessable shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) to which such Holder shall be entitled on such exercise, plus, any fractional share to which such holder would otherwise be entitled will be rounded to the nearest one full share and
included in the aforementioned certificate or certificates, up to the number of shares available under this Warrant. Holder will also receive any other stock or other securities and property (including cash, where applicable) to which such Holder is
entitled upon such exercise pursuant to Section 1 or otherwise. 
  
 2.2 Exercise. Payment may be made in cash, wire transfer or by certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company equal to the applicable aggregate Exercise Price, for the number of Common Shares specified in such
Exercise Notice (as such exercise number shall be adjusted to reflect any adjustment in the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable to the Holder per the terms of this Warrant) and the Holder shall thereupon be entitled to receive the number
of duly authorized, validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) determined as provided herein. 
  
 3. Effect of Reorganization, Etc.; Adjustment of Exercise Price. 
  
 3.1 Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, Etc. In case at any time or from time to time, the Company shall (a)
effect a reorganization, (b) consolidate with or merge into any other person, or (c) transfer all or substantially all of its properties or assets to any other person under any plan or arrangement contemplating the dissolution of the Company, then,
in each such case, as a condition to the consummation of such a transaction, proper and adequate provision shall be made by the Company whereby the Holder of this Warrant, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1 at any time after the
consummation of such reorganization, 
  

 3 








 consolidation or merger or the effective date of such dissolution, as the case may be, shall be permitted to exercise the
Warrant as if such exercise occurred previous to the reorganization, consolidation, merger, as set forth above, and receive the Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such consummation or such effective date,
any other stock and other securities and property (including cash) to which such Common Stock holder would be entitled, all subject to further adjustment thereafter as provided in Section 4. Further, pursuant to an occurrence or transaction
contemplated in this paragraph, the Company may, in its sole discretion, choose to redeem the then outstanding warrants for cash, rather than allow the warrants to remain outstanding subsequent to any occurrence or transaction contemplated in this
paragraph. The cash value of the warrants will be the value of the consideration received by the Common Stock holders minus the then current exercise price of the warrants. 
  
 3.2 Dissolution. In the event of any dissolution of the Company following the transfer of all or substantially all of
its properties or assets, the Company, concurrently with any distributions made to holders of its Common Stock, shall at its expense deliver or cause to be delivered to the Holder the same distributions made to holders of its Common Stock, pursuant
to the exercise mechanism set forth above in Section 3.1, or, if the Holder shall so instruct the Company, to a bank or trust company specified by the Holder and having its principal office in New York, NY as trustee for the Holder of the Warrant
(the “Trustee”). 
  
 3.3 Continuation of Terms.
Upon any reorganization, consolidation, merger or transfer (and any dissolution following any transfer) referred to in this Section 3, this Warrant shall continue in full force and effect and the terms hereof shall be applicable to the shares of
stock and other securities and property receivable on the exercise of this Warrant after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of dissolution following any such transfer, as the case may be, and shall
be binding upon the issuer of any such stock or other securities, including, in the case of any such transfer, the person acquiring all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Company, whether or not such person shall have expressly
assumed the terms of this Warrant as provided in Section 4. In the event this Warrant does not continue in full force and effect after the consummation of the transactions described in this Section 3, then the Company’s securities and property
(including cash, where applicable) receivable by the Holders of the Warrant will be delivered to Holder or the Trustee as contemplated by Section 3.2. 
  
 4. Extraordinary Events Regarding Common Stock. In the event that the Company shall (a) issue additional shares of the Common Stock as a dividend
or other distribution on outstanding Common Stock, (b) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock, or (c) combine its outstanding shares of the Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of the Common Stock, then, in each such event, the
Exercise Price shall, simultaneously with the happening of such event, be adjusted by multiplying the then Exercise Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event
and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the product so obtained shall thereafter be the Exercise Price then in effect. The Exercise Price, as so adjusted, shall be
readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of any successive event or events described herein in this Section 4. The number of shares of Common Stock that the holder of this Warrant shall thereafter, on the exercise hereof as provided in
Section 1, be entitled to receive shall be 
  

 4 








 increased to a number determined by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise (but for the
provisions of this Section 4) be issuable on such exercise by a fraction of which (a) the numerator is the Exercise Price that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 4) be in effect, and (b) the denominator is the Exercise Price in
effect on the date of such exercise. 
  
 5. Certificate as to
Adjustments. In each case of any adjustment or readjustment in the shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on the exercise of the Warrant, the Company at its expense will promptly cause its Chief Financial Officer or other
appropriate designee to compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms of the Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or
readjustment is based, including a statement of (a) the consideration received or receivable by the Company for any additional shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold, (b) the number of
shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) outstanding or deemed to be outstanding, and (c) the Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common Stock to be received upon exercise of this Warrant, in effect immediately prior to such adjustment or
readjustment and as adjusted or readjusted as provided in this Warrant. The Company will forthwith mail a copy of each such certificate to the holder of the Warrant and any Warrant agent of the Company (appointed pursuant to Section 11 hereof).

  
 6. Reservation of Stock, Etc., Issuable on Exercise of
Warrant. The Company will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery on the exercise of the Warrant, shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) from time to time issuable on the exercise of the Warrant.

  
 7. Assignment; Exchange of Warrant. Subject to
compliance with applicable securities laws, this Warrant, and the rights evidenced hereby, may be transferred by any registered holder hereof (a “Transferor”) in whole or in part. On the surrender for exchange of this Warrant, with the
Transferor’s endorsement in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto (the “Transferor Endorsement Form”) and together with evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company demonstrating compliance with applicable securities laws, which
shall include, without limitation, the provision of a legal opinion from the Transferor’s counsel (at the Company’s expense) that such transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of applicable securities laws, and with payment by
the Transferor of any applicable transfer taxes) will issue and deliver to or on the order of the Transferor thereof a new Warrant of like tenor, in the name of the Transferor and/or the transferee(s) specified in such Transferor Endorsement Form
(each a “Transferee”), calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock called for on the face or faces of the Warrant so surrendered by the Transferor. 
  
 8. Replacement of Warrant. On receipt of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction of this Warrant, on delivery of an indemnity agreement or security reasonably satisfactory in form and
amount to the Company or, in the case of any such mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company at its expense will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor. 
  

 5 








 9. Registration Rights. The Holder of this Warrant has been granted certain registration rights by
the Company. These registration rights are set forth in a Registration Rights Agreement entered into by the Company and Holder dated as of even date of this Warrant. 
  
 10. Maximum Exercise A. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be entitled
to exercise this Warrant on an exercise date, in connection with that number of shares of Common Stock which would be in excess of the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates on an exercise
date, and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made on an exercise date, which would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and
its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company on such date. For clarity sake, the exercise of this Warrant is subordinated to the conversions under the Secured Convertible Term Note, and so long as the
conversions under the Note are available, no warrants may be exercised and no shares issuable hereunder that will exceed 4.99% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Common Stock of the Company when combined with the Note conversions.

  
 B. Beneficial ownership, as discussed in this paragraph 10,
shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Regulation 13d-3 thereunder. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, at no time shall the beneficial ownership exceed 19.99% of the Common Stock.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable by the Company and acquirable by the Holder at a price $0.49 per share pursuant to the terms of this Warrant, the Note made by the Company to
the Holder dated the date hereof (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “Note”), the Purchase Agreement (as defined in the Note) or any Related Agreement (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), shall not exceed an
aggregate of 7,261,022 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (subject to appropriate adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, or other similar recapitalizations affecting the Common Stock) (the “Maximum Common Stock
Issuance”), unless the issuance of shares hereunder in excess of the Maximum Common Stock Issuance shall first be approved by the Company’s shareholders. If at any point in time and from time to time the number of shares of Common
Stock issued pursuant to the terms of this Warrant, the Note, the Purchase Agreement or any Related Agreement, together with the number of shares of Common Stock that would then be issuable by the Company to the Holder in the event of a conversion
or exercise pursuant to the terms of this Warrant, the Note, the Purchase Agreement or any Related Agreement, would exceed the Maximum Common Stock Issuance but for this paragraph the Holder’s actions shall be stayed, and, the Company shall
promptly within ninety (90) days call a shareholders meeting to solicit shareholder approval for the issuance of the shares of Common Stock hereunder in excess of the Maximum Common Stock Issuance. 
  
 11. Warrant Agent. The Company may, by written notice to the each
Holder of the Warrant, appoint an agent for the purpose of issuing Common Stock (or Other Securities) on the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to Section 1, exchanging this Warrant pursuant to Section 7, and replacing this Warrant pursuant to
Section 8, or any of the foregoing, and thereafter any such issuance, exchange or replacement, as the case may be, shall be made at such office by such agent. 
  

 6 








 12. Transfer on the Company’s Books. Until this Warrant is transferred on the books of the
Company, the Company may treat the registered holder hereof as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. 
  
 13. Notices, Etc. All notices and other communications from the Company to the Holder of this Warrant shall be mailed by first class registered or
certified mail, postage prepaid sent by overnight courier, communicated through a facsimile transmission, at such address, or facsimile transmission number, as may have been furnished to the Company in writing by such Holder or, until any such
Holder furnishes to the Company an address, then to, and at the address of, the last Holder of this Warrant who has so furnished an address to the Company. 
  
 14. Miscellaneous. This Warrant and any term hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated only by an instrument in writing signed by the
party against which enforcement of such change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of State of New York without regard to principles of conflicts of laws. Any
action brought concerning the transactions contemplated by this Warrant shall be brought only in the state courts of New York or in the federal courts located in the state of New York; provided, however, that the Holder may choose to waive this
provision and bring an action outside the state of New York. The individuals executing this Warrant on behalf of the Company agree to submit to the jurisdiction of such courts and waive trial by jury. The prevailing party shall be entitled to
recover from the other party its reasonable attorney’s fees and costs. In the event that any provision of this Warrant is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law, then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to
the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute or rule of law. Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any
other provision of this Warrant. The headings in this Warrant are for purposes of reference only, and shall not limit or otherwise affect any of the terms hereof. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof shall in no way affect the
validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof. The Company acknowledges that legal counsel participated in the preparation of this Warrant and, therefore, stipulates that the rule of construction that ambiguities are to be resolved
against the drafting party shall not be applied in the interpretation of this Warrant to favor any party against the other party.
