 Warrant No. A-[XX]  
 EMISPHERE TECHNOLOGIES, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby certifies that, for value received, [NAME OF HOLDER] or its permitted registered assigns
(the “Holder”), is entitled to purchase from the Company up to a total of [NUMBER] shares of Common Stock (as defined below) of the Company (each such share, a “Warrant Share” and all such
shares, the “Warrant Shares”) at an exercise price equal to $0.50 per share (as adjusted from time to time as provided herein, the “Exercise Price”), at any time and from time to time on or after the
Original Issue Date and through and including the Expiration Date (as defined below), and subject to the following terms and conditions: 
 This Warrant is one of a series of warrants issued pursuant to that certain Restructuring Agreement dated April 26, 2013, by and between the Company and each of the Persons party thereto (the
“Restructuring Agreement”). All such warrants are referred to herein, collectively, as the “Warrants.” 
 1. Definitions. In addition to the terms defined elsewhere in this Warrant, capitalized terms that are not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to such terms in Section 18. 

2. List of Warrant Holders. 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 (which shall include the initial Holder or, as the case may be, any registered assignee to which this Warrant is permissibly assigned hereunder 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.

 3. List of Transfers; Restrictions on Transfer. 

(a) This Warrant may be offered for sale, sold, transferred or assigned without the consent of the Company. 

(b) The Company shall register any such transfer of all or any portion of this Warrant in the Warrant Register, upon surrender of this
Warrant, with the Form of Assignment attached hereto duly completed and signed, to the Company at its address specified herein. Upon any such registration or transfer, a new Warrant to purchase Common Stock, in substantially the form of this Warrant
(in accordance with Section 3(e)), evidencing the portion of this Warrant so transferred shall be issued to the transferee and a new Warrant evidencing the remaining portion of this Warrant not so transferred, if any, shall be issued to the
transferring Holder. The acceptance of the new Warrant by the transferee thereof shall be deemed the acceptance by such transferee of all of the rights and obligations in respect of the new Warrant that the Holder has in respect of this Warrant.

 (c) This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder at the principal office of the Company, for a new
Warrant or Warrants (in accordance with Section 3(e)) representing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant, and each such new Warrant will represent the right to purchase such portion of such
Warrant Shares as is designated by the Holder at the time of such surrender; provided, however, no warrants for fractional shares of Common Stock shall be given. 
 (d) If, at the time of the surrender of this Warrant in connection with any transfer of this Warrant, transfer of this Warrant shall not be registered pursuant to an effective registration statement under
the Securities Act and under applicable state securities or blue sky laws, the Company may require, as a condition of allowing such transfer (i) that the Holder or transferee of this Warrant, as the case may be, furnish to the Company a written
opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions) to the effect that such transfer may be made without registration under the Securities Act and under applicable
state securities or blue sky laws, (ii) that the holder or transferee execute and deliver to the Company an investment letter in form and substance acceptable to the Company and (iii) that the transferee be an “accredited
investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) promulgated under the Securities Act. 
 (e) Whenever the Company is required to issue
a new Warrant pursuant to the terms of this Warrant, such new Warrant (i) shall be of like tenor with this Warrant, (ii) shall represent, as indicated on the face of such new Warrant, the right to purchase the Warrant Shares then
underlying this Warrant (or in the case of a new Warrant being issued pursuant to this Section 3 or Section 7, the Warrant Shares designated by the Holder which, when added to the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the other new Warrants
issued in connection with such issuance, does not exceed the number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant), (iii) shall have an issuance date, as indicated on the face of such new Warrant which is the same as the Original Issue Date,
and (iv) shall have the same rights and conditions as this Warrant.

 4. Exercise and Duration of Warrants. 

(a) All or any part of this Warrant shall be exercisable by the registered Holder in any manner permitted by Section 4 of this Warrant at
any time and from time to time on or after the Original Issue Date and through and including the Expiration Date. At 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Expiration Date, the portion of this Warrant not exercised prior thereto shall be and become
void and of no value and this Warrant shall be terminated and no longer outstanding. In addition, if cashless exercise would be permitted under Section 4(c) of this Warrant, then all or part of this Warrant may be exercised by the registered Holder
utilizing such cashless exercise provisions at any time, or from time to time, on or after the Original Issue Date and through and including the Expiration Date. 
 (b) The Holder may exercise this Warrant by delivering to the Company an exercise notice, in the form attached hereto (the “Exercise Notice”), completed and duly signed. If such
Holder is not utilizing the cashless exercise provisions set forth in this Warrant, within one (1) Trading Day following an exercise of this Warrant as aforesaid, the Holder shall deliver payment to the Company of an amount equal to the
Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised (the “Aggregate Exercise Price”). The date the Exercise Notice is delivered to the Company (as determined in accordance with the
notice provisions hereof) is an “Exercise Date.” The Holder shall not be required to deliver the original Warrant in order to effect an exercise hereunder. Execution and delivery of the Exercise Notice shall have the same
effect as cancellation of the original Warrant and issuance of a New Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares. Additionally, at the request of the Holder, if this Warrant shall have been exercised in part and
the Holder shall have surrendered this Warrant certificate, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of the certificate or certificates representing Warrant Shares, deliver to Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of 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. 
 (c) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if at the time of exercise hereof, a Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) is not effective (or the
prospectus contained therein is not available for use) for the resale by the Holder of all of the Warrant Shares, then the Holder may, in its sole discretion, exercise this Warrant in whole or in part and, in lieu of making the cash payment
otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company upon such exercise in payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price, elect instead to receive upon such exercise the “Net Number” of shares of Common Stock determined according to the following
formula (a “Cashless Exercise”): 
  

			
	Net Number =	  	(A x B) - (A x C)
		  	B

 For purposes of the foregoing formula: 

A= the total number of shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised. 

B= as applicable: (i) the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable
Exercise Notice if such Exercise Notice is 

  
 3 








 
(1) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 4 hereof on a day that is not a Trading Day or (2) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 4 hereof on a Trading Day prior to the
opening of “regular trading hours” (as defined in Rule 600(b)(64) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, (ii) the Bid Price of the Common Stock as of the time of the Holder’s
execution of the applicable Exercise Notice if such Exercise Notice is executed during “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day and is delivered within two (2) hours thereafter pursuant to Section 4 hereof and (iii) the Closing
Sale Price of the Common Stock on the date of the applicable Exercise Notice if the date of such Exercise Notice is a Trading Day and such Exercise Notice is both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 4 hereof after the close of “regular
trading hours” on such Trading Day. 
 C= the Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Warrant Shares at the time of
such exercise. 
 (d) In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price or the arithmetic calculation of
the number of Warrant Shares to be issued pursuant to the terms hereof, the Company shall promptly issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares that are not disputed and resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 15. 

5. Delivery of Warrant Shares. 
 (a) On or before the first (1st) Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received an Exercise Notice, the Company shall transmit by facsimile or electronic mail an acknowledgment of confirmation of receipt of such
Exercise Notice, to the Holder and the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”). On or before the third (3rd) Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received such Exercise Notice, the Company shall
(X) provided that the Transfer Agent is participating in The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program and the Warrant Shares can be issued without restrictive legends, upon the request
of the Holder, credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian system,
or (Y) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program or the Warrant Shares cannot be issued without restrictive legends, issue and deliver to the Holder or, at the Holder’s instruction
pursuant to the Exercise Notice, the Holder’s agent or designee, in each case, sent by reputable overnight courier to the address as specified in the applicable Exercise Notice, a certificate, registered in the Company’s share register in
the name of the Holder or its designee (as indicated in the applicable Exercise Notice), for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise. Upon delivery of an Exercise Notice, the Holder shall be
deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date such Warrant Shares are credited to the Holder’s DTC account or the date
of delivery of the certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares (as the case may be). The Holder, or any Person permissibly so designated by the Holder to receive Warrant Shares, shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of such Warrant
Shares as of the Exercise Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except in the case where an exercise of this Warrant is validly made pursuant to a cashless exercise, the Company’s failure to deliver Warrant Shares to the Holder on or prior to
the later of (x) the close of the (3rd) third
Trading Day after delivery of 

  
 4 








 
an Exercise Notice and (y) the Trading Day in which the Company receives the Aggregate Exercise Price (such later date, the “Share Delivery Deadline”) shall not be
deemed to be a breach of this Warrant. 
 (b) If by the Share Delivery Deadline, the Company fails to deliver to the Holder a
certificate representing the required number of Warrant Shares in the manner required pursuant to Section 5(a), and if after such third Trading Day and prior to the receipt of such Warrant Shares, the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction
or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall, within three
Trading Days after the Holder’s request and in the Holder’s sole discretion, either (i) pay in cash to the Holder an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of
Common Stock so purchased (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to deliver such certificate (and to issue such Warrant Shares) shall terminate or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver
to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing such shares of Common Stock or credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise
hereunder (as the case may be) and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of shares of Common Stock times (B) the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on
the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Exercise Notice. 
 (c) To the extent permitted by law, the
Company’s obligations to issue and deliver Warrant Shares in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any
provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder or any other Person of any
obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation of law by the Holder or any other Person, and irrespective of any other circumstance that might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with the
issuance of Warrant Shares. 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 certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof. 
 6. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance and delivery of certificates for shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer
tax, withholding tax, transfer agent fee or other incidental tax or expense in respect of the issuance of such certificates, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be
required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the registration of any certificates for Warrant Shares or Warrants in a name other than that of the Holder. The Holder shall be responsible for all other tax
liability that may arise as a result of holding or transferring this Warrant or receiving Warrant Shares upon exercise hereof. 

7. Replacement of Warrant. If this Warrant is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued
in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation 

  
 5 








 
hereof, or in lieu of and substitution for this Warrant, a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 33(e)), but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss,
theft or destruction and customary and reasonable indemnity (which shall not include a surety bond), if requested. Applicants for a new Warrant under such circumstances shall also comply with such other reasonable regulations and procedures and pay
such other reasonable third-party costs as the Company may prescribe. If a new Warrant is requested as a result of a mutilation of this Warrant, then the Holder shall deliver such mutilated Warrant to the Company as a condition precedent to the
Company’s obligation to issue the new Warrant. 
 8. Reservation of Warrant Shares. The Company covenants that it
will at all times reserve and keep available out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued and otherwise unreserved Common Stock, solely for the purpose of enabling it to issue Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant as herein provided,
the number of Warrant Shares that are then issuable and deliverable upon the exercise of this entire Warrant, free from preemptive rights or any other contingent purchase rights of Persons other than the Holder (taking into account the adjustments
and restrictions of Section 9). The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares so issuable and deliverable shall, upon issuance and the payment of the applicable Exercise Price in accordance with the terms hereof, be duly and validly authorized,
issued and fully paid and nonassessable. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, and not in limitation thereof, at any time while any of the Warrants remain outstanding the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved shares of
Common Stock to satisfy its obligation to reserve for issuance upon exercise of the Warrants at least a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the exercise of
all of the Warrants then outstanding (the “Required Reserve Amount”, and such reservation failure, an “Authorized Share Failure”), then the Company shall promptly take all action necessary to increase
the Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock to an amount sufficient to allow the Company to reserve the Required Reserve Amount for all the Warrants then outstanding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, as soon as
practicable after the date of the occurrence of an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall hold a meeting of its stockholders for the approval
of an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. In connection with such meeting, the Company shall provide each stockholder with a proxy statement and shall use its best efforts to solicit its stockholders’ approval of such
increase in authorized shares of Common Stock and to cause its board of directors to recommend to the stockholders that they approve such proposal. 
 9. Certain Adjustments. The Exercise Price and number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 9.

 (a) Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) pays a stock
dividend on its Common Stock or otherwise makes a distribution on any class of capital stock that is payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) outstanding shares of
Common Stock into a larger number of shares, or (iii) combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied
by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the 

  
 6 








 
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Any
adjustment made pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, and any adjustment pursuant to clause
(ii) or (iii) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination. If any event requiring an adjustment under this paragraph occurs during the period that an Exercise Price is
calculated hereunder, then the calculation of such Exercise Price shall be adjusted appropriately to reflect such event. 
 (b)
Pro Rata Distributions. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, distributes to all holders of Common Stock for no consideration (i) evidences of its indebtedness, (ii) any security (other than a distribution
of Common Stock covered by Section 9(a)), (iii) rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security, or (iv) any other asset (in each case, “Distributed Property”), then, upon any exercise of this Warrant
that occurs after the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution, the Holder shall be entitled to receive, in addition to the Warrant Shares otherwise issuable upon such exercise (if applicable)
(without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof), the Distributed Property that such Holder would have been entitled to receive in respect of such number of Warrant Shares had the Holder been the record holder of such Warrant Shares
immediately prior to such record date. 
 (c) Fundamental Transactions. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding
(i) the Company effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, in which the shareholders of the Company as of immediately prior to the transaction own less than a majority of the outstanding stock of the
surviving entity, (ii) the Company effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed
pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property, or (iv) the Company effects any reclassification 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 (each, a “Fundamental Transaction”), then the Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon exercise of this
Warrant, the same amount and kind of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction if it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, the holder of the
number of Warrant Shares then issuable upon exercise in full of this Warrant (the “Alternate Consideration”). The Company shall not effect any such Fundamental Transaction unless prior to or simultaneously with the
consummation thereof, any successor to the Company, surviving entity or the corporation purchasing or otherwise acquiring such assets or other appropriate corporation or entity shall assume the obligation to deliver to the Holder, such Alternate
Consideration as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the Holder may be entitled to purchase, and the other obligations under this Warrant. The provisions of this paragraph (c) shall similarly apply to subsequent transactions analogous to a
Fundamental Transaction. 
 (d) Number of Warrant Shares. Simultaneously with any adjustment to the Exercise Price
pursuant to paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 9, the number of Warrant Shares 

  
 7 








 
that may be purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased or decreased proportionately, so that after such adjustment the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder for the adjusted
number of Warrant Shares shall be the same as the aggregate Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. 

(e) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 9 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as
applicable. The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any given time shall not include shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company, and the disposition of any such shares shall be considered an issue or sale of Common Stock.

 (f) Notice of Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment pursuant to this Section 9, the Company at its
expense will, at the written request of the Holder, promptly compute such adjustment in accordance with the terms of this Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment, including a statement of the adjusted Exercise Price and
adjusted number or type of Warrant Shares or other securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (as applicable), describing the transactions giving rise to such adjustments and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based.
Upon written request, the Company will promptly deliver a copy of each such certificate to the Holder and to the Company’s Transfer Agent. 
 (g) Notice of Events. The Company will give written notice to the Holder at least two (2) days prior to the date on which the Company closes its books or takes a record (A) with respect
to any dividend or distribution upon the shares of Common Stock, or (B) for determining rights to vote with respect to any Fundamental Transaction, dissolution or liquidation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure deliver such notice or
any defect therein shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be described in such notice. To the extent that any notice provided hereunder constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company
(including its subsidiaries), the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K. It is expressly understood and agreed that the time of execution specified by the
Holder in each Exercise Notice shall be definitive and may not be disputed or challenged by the Company. 
 10. Payment of
Exercise Price. The Holder shall pay the Exercise Price by delivering immediately available funds to the Company unless the Holder has specified a “Cashless Exercise” in the applicable Exercise Notice. 

11. No Fractional Shares. No fractional Warrant Shares will be issued in connection with any exercise of this Warrant. In lieu of
any fractional shares that would otherwise be issuable, the Company shall pay cash equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the Closing Bid Price of one Warrant Share on the applicable Exercise Date. 

12. Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries hereunder (including, without limitation, any Exercise
Notice) shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective on the earliest of (i) upon confirmation of receipt, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile or electronic mail at the facsimile number or e-mail address
specified in this Section at or prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a Trading Day (provided confirmation of transmission is mechanically or electronically generated and kept on file by the sending party), (ii) the next Trading Day after
the date of confirmation of receipt, if 

  
 8 








 
such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile or electronic mail at the facsimile number or e-mail address specified in this Section on a day that is not a Trading Day or later than
5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on any Trading Day (provided confirmation of transmission is mechanically or electronically generated and kept on file by the sending party), (iii) the Trading Day following the date of mailing, if sent by
nationally recognized overnight courier service, or (iv) upon actual receipt by the party to whom such notice is required to be given. The addresses for such notices or communications shall be: if to the Company, to Emisphere Technologies,
Inc., 4 Becker Farm Road, Suite 103, Roseland, New Jersey 07068, Attention: Chief Financial Officer, Facsimile No.: (973) 422-0125, e-mail address: mgarone@emisphere.com (or such other address as the Company shall indicate in writing in
accordance with this Section) or (ii) if to the Holder, to the address, facsimile number or e-mail address appearing on the Warrant Register (or such other address as the Company shall indicate in writing in accordance with this Section).

 13. Warrant Agent. The Company shall serve as warrant agent under this Warrant. Upon 30 days’ notice to the
Holder, the Company may appoint a new warrant agent. Any corporation into which the Company or any new warrant agent may be merged or any corporation resulting from any consolidation to which the Company or any new warrant agent shall be a party or
any corporation to which the Company or any new warrant agent transfers substantially all of its corporate trust or shareholders services business shall be a successor warrant agent under this Warrant without any further act. Any such successor
warrant agent shall promptly cause notice of its succession as warrant agent to be mailed (by first class mail, postage prepaid) to the Holder at the Holder’s last address as shown on the Warrant Register. 

14. Noncircumvention. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its Articles of
Incorporation, as amended, its Bylaws as amended 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 (i) shall not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, (ii) shall take all such actions as may be
necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (iii) shall, so long as any of the Warrants are outstanding, take all
action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the exercise of the Warrants, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be
necessary to effect the exercise of the Warrants then outstanding (without regard to any limitations on exercise). 
 15.
Dispute Resolution. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price, the Closing Bid Price, the Closing Sale Price, the Bid Price or fair market value or the arithmetic calculation of the number of Warrant Shares (as
the case may be), the Company or the Holder (as the case may be) shall submit the disputed determinations or arithmetic calculations (as the case may be) via facsimile (i) within two (2) Business Days after receipt of the applicable notice
giving rise to such dispute to the Company or the Holder (as the case may be) or (ii) if no notice gave rise to such dispute, at any time after the Holder learned of the circumstances giving


  
 9 








 
rise to such dispute. If the Holder and the Company are unable to agree upon such determination or calculation (as the case may be) of the Exercise Price, the Closing Bid Price, the Closing Sale
Price, the Bid Price or fair market value or the number of Warrant Shares (as the case may be) within three (3) Business Days of such disputed determination or arithmetic calculation being submitted to the Company or the Holder (as the case may
be), then the Company shall, within two (2) Business Days submit via facsimile (a) the disputed determination of the Exercise Price, the Closing Bid Price, the Closing Sale Price, the Bid Price or fair market value (as the case may be) to
an independent, reputable investment bank selected by the Company and approved by the Holder or (b) the disputed arithmetic calculation of the number of Warrant Shares to the Company’s independent, outside accountant. The Company shall
cause the investment bank or the accountant (as the case may be) to perform the determinations or calculations (as the case may be) and notify the Company and the Holder of the results no later than ten (10) Business Days from the time it
receives such disputed determinations or calculations (as the case may be). Such investment bank’s or accountant’s determination or calculation (as the case may be) shall be binding upon all parties absent demonstrable error. If a disputed
determination or arithmetic calculation is submitted to the investment bank or the accountant (as the case may be) pursuant to this Section 15, then the prevailing party in such determination or calculation shall be reimbursed by the other
party for its costs and expenses (including any and all fees and expenses charged by the investment back or accountant) incurred in connection with the determination or calculation (as the case may be). 

16. Remedies, Characterization, Other Obligations, Breaches and Injunctive Relief. The remedies provided in this Warrant shall be
cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the
right of the Holder to pursue actual damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Warrant. The Company covenants to the Holder that there shall be no characterization concerning this instrument other than as expressly
provided herein. Amounts set forth or provided for herein with respect to payments, exercises and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by the Holder and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject
to any other obligation of the Company (or the performance thereof). The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be
inadequate. The Company therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the holder of this Warrant shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any breach, without the
necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required. The Company shall provide all information and documentation to the Holder that is requested by the Holder that is reasonably necessary to enable the Holder to
confirm the Company’s compliance with the terms and conditions of this Warrant. The issuance of shares and certificates for shares as contemplated hereby upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Holder or such
shares for any issuance tax or other costs in respect thereof, provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any certificate in a name other
than the Holder or its agent on its behalf.

 17. Miscellaneous. 

(a) This Warrant shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Subject
to the preceding sentence, nothing in this Warrant shall be construed to give to any Person other than the Company and the Holder any legal or equitable right, remedy or cause of action under this Warrant. This Warrant may be amended only in writing
signed by the Company and the Holder, or their successors and assigns. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving party. 

(b) This Warrant shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with, and all questions concerning the construction,
validity, interpretation and performance of this Warrant shall be governed by, the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other
