Exhibit
4.4


 


RETURN TO TREASURY AGREEMENT


 


 


THIS
AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made as of the 15th day of February, 2013, by
and between Globalwise Investments, Inc., a corporation formed pursuant to the laws of the State
of Nevada (the “Company” or “Globalwise”) and Matthew L. Chretien (the “Shareholder”).


 


RECITALS


 


WHEREAS, the Shareholder
is a member of the Board of Directors and an Officer of the Company, and is the registered and beneficial owner of 9,774,300 restricted
shares of the Company’s common stock (collectively, the “Shares”);


 


WHEREAS, on February
10, 2012, Globalwise entered into a Securities Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) by and between itself
and Intellinetics, Inc. Pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement, all of the former shareholders of Intellinetics transferred
to Globalwise all of their shares of Intellinetics in exchange for shares of common stock (“Intellinetics-Globalwise Share
Exchange”) of Globalwise. Prior to the Intellinetics-Globalwise Share Exchange, Globalwise was a non-operating public shell
company. As a result of the Intellinetics-Globalwise Share Exchange, Intellinetics became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Globalwise;


 


WHERAS, the Shareholder
was a former shareholder of Intellinetics and received his Shares in consideration for exchanging his Intellinetics shares in the
Intellinetics-Globalwise Share Exchange described in the immediately preceding recital above;

the this Agreement, the Company and the Shareholder have determined that the return of 3,500,000 of the Shares owned by the Shareholder
(the “Retired Shares”) to the Company’s treasury is in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders
because the Retired Shares are needed by the Company to raise funds in a proposed private placement of up to $3,000,000 of Shares
to select accredited investors subsequent to the Shareholder returning the Retired Shares to the Company (the “Private Placement”);
and


 


WHEREAS, as consideration
for the Shareholder returning the Retired Shares to the Company’s treasury, the Company has agreed to issue a four-year warrant
to the Shareholder with a right to purchase 3,500,000 Shares at $0.001 per Share within four-years of the Company increasing the
number of authorized shares of Common Stock of the Company (the “Warrant”), pursuant to the terms and conditions contained
in the form of Warrant attached hereto as Exhibit A.


 


NOW THEREFORE for due
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

or defense of any claim shall be paid by the Shareholder. 


 


Representation and Warranties of the
Company

ATTACHMENT A


 


[Form of Warrant]


 


GLOBALWISE INVESTMENTS, INC.


 


Warrant No. 0007


 


WARRANT TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK


VOID AFTER 5:00 P.M., EASTERN TIME,


ON THE EXPIRATION DATE


 


THIS WARRANT AND ANY SHARES ACQUIRED UPON THE EXERCISE OF
THIS WARRANT HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND MAY
NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED, DONATED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN
APPLICABLE EXEMPTION FROM SUCH REGISTRATION.


 


FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Globalwise Investments, Inc., a Nevada
corporation (the “Company”), hereby agrees to sell upon the terms and on the conditions hereinafter set forth, to MATTHEW
L. CHRETIEN, having an address at 2150 Olentangy Ridge Place, Powell, OH 43065, or his, her or its registered assigns (the “Holder”),
under the terms as hereinafter set forth, three million five hundred thousand (3,500,000) fully paid and non-assessable shares
of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a purchase price per share
of one-tenth of one cent ($0.001) (the “Warrant Price”), pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in this warrant
(this “Warrant”). The number of shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of this Warrant (“Warrant Shares”)
and the Warrant Price are subject to adjustment in certain events as hereinafter set forth. 


 


This Warrant is issued to the Holder
as consideration for the Holder returning [three million five hundred thousand (3,500,000)] Common Stock owned by the Holder to
the Company pursuant to a Return to Treasury Agreement, of even date, between the Holder and the Company (the “Retired Shares”)
substantially in the form attached to this Warrant as Exhibit C. The Company and the Holder have determined that the return of
3,500,000 of the Common Stock owned by the Holder to the Company’s treasury is in the best interest of the Company and its
shareholders because the Retired Shares are needed by the Company to raise funds in a proposed private placement of up to $3,000,000
of Common Stock to select accredited investors subsequent to the Holder returning the Retired Shares to the Company (the “Private
Placement”); 


 


1.Exercise of Warrant.


 


(a)Subject to Section 3 hereof, the Holder may exercise
this Warrant according to the terms and conditions set forth herein by delivering to the Company, at the address set forth in Section
10 prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, at any time prior to the Expiration Date (such date of exercise, the “Exercise Date”)
(i) this Warrant, (ii) the Subscription Form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Subscription Form”) (having then been
duly executed by the Holder), and (iii) cash, a certified check or a bank draft in payment of the purchase price, in lawful money
of the United States of America, for the number of Warrant Shares specified in the Subscription Form. 


 


(b)This Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part
so long as any exercise in part hereof would not involve the issuance of fractional Warrant Shares. If exercised in part, the Company
shall deliver to the Holder a new Warrant, identical in form to this Warrant, in the name of the Holder, evidencing the right to
purchase the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant has not been exercised, which new Warrant shall be signed by the
President or Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The term Warrant as used herein shall include any subsequent Warrant issued
as provided herein. 


 






    	4



    	 



    

 





(c)No fractional Warrant Shares or scrip representing
fractional Warrant Shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall pay cash in lieu of such fractional
Warrant Shares. The price of a fractional Warrant Share shall equal the product of (i) the closing price of the Common Stock on
the exchange or market on which the Common Stock is then traded (if the Common Stock is not then publicly traded, then upon the
fair market value per share of the Common Stock (as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors)), and (ii) the applicable
fraction.


 


(d)In the event of any exercise of the rights represented
by this Warrant, a certificate or certificates for Warrant Shares so purchased, registered in the name of the Holder on the stock
transfer books of the Company, shall be delivered to the Holder within 90-days after such rights shall have been so exercised.
The person or entity in whose name any certificate for Warrant Shares is issued upon exercise of the rights represented by this
Warrant shall for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder of record of such Warrant Shares immediately prior to the close
of business on the date on which the Warrant was surrendered and payment of the Warrant Price and any applicable taxes was made,
irrespective of the date of delivery of such certificate, except that, if the date of such surrender and payment is a date when
the stock transfer books of the Company are closed, such person shall be deemed to have become the holder of such shares at the
opening of business on the next succeeding date on which the Company’s stock transfer books are open. Except as provided
in Section 4 hereof, the Company shall pay any and all documentary stamp or similar issue payable in respect of the issue or delivery
of Warrant Shares on exercise of this Warrant.


 


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


 


2.Disposition of Warrant Shares and Warrant.


 


(a)The Holder hereby acknowledges that: (i) this Warrant
and any Warrant Shares purchased pursuant hereto are not being registered (A) under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”)
on the ground that the issuance of this Warrant is exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Act as not involving any
public offering, or (B) under any applicable state securities law because the issuance of this Warrant does not involve any public
offering; and (ii) that the Company’s reliance on the registration exemption under Section 4(2) of the Act and under applicable
state securities laws is predicated in part on the representations hereby made to the Company by the Holder. The Holder represents
and warrants that he, she or it is acquiring this Warrant and will acquire Warrant Shares for investment for his, her or its own
account, with no present intention of dividing his, her or its participation with others or reselling or otherwise distributing
this Warrant or Warrant Shares.


 


(b)The Holder hereby agrees that he, she or it will not
sell, transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose of (collectively, “Transfer”) all or any part of this Warrant and/or Warrant
Shares unless and until he, she or it shall have first have given notice to the Company describing such Transfer and furnished
to the Company (i) a statement from the transferee, whereby the transferee represents and warrants that he, she, or it is acquiring
this Warrant and will acquire Warrant Shares, as applicable, for investment for his, her or its own account, with no present intention
of dividing his, her or its participation with others or reselling or otherwise distributing this Warrant or Warrant Shares, as
applicable, and either (ii) an opinion, reasonably satisfactory to counsel for the Company, of counsel (competent in securities
matters, selected by the Holder and reasonably satisfactory to the Company) to the effect that the proposed Transfer may be made
without registration under the Act and without registration or qualification under any state law, or (iii) an interpretative letter
from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to the effect that no enforcement action will be recommended if the proposed sale
or transfer is made without registration under the Act. 


 






    	5



    	 



    

 


(c)If, at the time of issuance of Warrant Shares, no
registration statement is in effect with respect to such shares under applicable provisions of the Act, the Company may, at its
election, require that (i) the Holder provide written reconfirmation of the Holder’s investment intent to the Company, and
(ii) any stock certificate evidencing Warrant Shares shall bear legends reading substantially as follows:


 


“THE SALE, TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF
THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE IS SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN THE WARRANT PURSUANT TO WHICH THESE
SHARES WERE PURCHASED FROM THE COMPANY. COPIES OF SUCH RESTRICTIONS ARE ON FILE AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICES OF THE COMPANY. NO TRANSFER
OF SUCH SHARES OR OF THIS CERTIFICATE (OR OF ANY SHARES OR OTHER SECURITIES (OR CERTIFICATES THEREFOR) ISSUED IN EXCHANGE FOR OR
IN RESPECT OF SUCH SHARES) SHALL BE EFFECTIVE UNLESS AND UNTIL THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS SET FORTH IN THE WARRANT HAVE BEEN COMPLIED
WITH.”


 


“THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT
BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE
OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 (THE “ACT”) OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY
TO THE ISSUER OF THIS CERTIFICATE THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE ACT.”


 


In addition, so long as the foregoing legend may remain on
any stock certificate evidencing Warrant Shares, the Company may maintain appropriate “stop transfer” orders with respect
to such certificates and the shares represented thereby on its books and records and with those to whom it may delegate registrar
and transfer functions.


 


3.Reservation of Shares. The Holder and the Company understand
that following the Private Placement, the Company will not have sufficient number of authorized shares for issuance if this Warrant
is exercised by the Holder. As such, the Company agrees to, within a reasonable time following the Private Placement, seek shareholder
approval to increase the number of authorized shares by at least seven million (7,000,000) shares, such that the Holder can exercise
this Warrant in its entirety and any other shareholders who return shares to the Company’s treasury and are issued warrants
similar to this Warrant are able to exercise such other warrants in its entirety. Upon obtaining shareholder approval, the Company
shall immediately file a certificate of amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation with the Nevada Secretary of
State to effectuate the increase in the number of shares of Common Stock that are duly authorized (the “Certificate of Amendment”).


 





The Company and Holder agree that the Holder shall have a
right of first refusal to exercise the Warrant in its entirety prior to the Company issuing any shares of Common Stock to anyone
in any transaction subsequent to the completion of the Private Placement. The Holder’s right to exercise this Warrant shall
remain effective for a four-year period following shareholder authorization of the Newly Authorized Shares. The Holder understands
and acknowledges that (i) the Company shall not reserve any shares of the Company’s Common Stock for issuance upon exercise
of this Warrant unless and until the Certificate of Amendment has been duly filed and is effective, and (ii) the Warrant cannot
be exercised unless and until the Certificate of Amendment has been duly filed and is effective. 


 






    	6



    	 



    

 


The Company hereby agrees that at all
times following effectiveness of the Certificate of Amendment, there shall be reserved for issuance a sufficient number of shares
to allow for the exercise of this Warrant in full. The Company hereby represents and warrants that upon effectiveness of the Certificate
of Amendment, all Warrant Shares will be duly authorized and will, upon issuance and payment of the exercise price therefor, be
validly issued, fully paid and non assessable, free from all taxes, liens, charges and encumbrances with respect to the issuance
thereof, other than taxes, if any, in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issuance and other than transfer
restrictions imposed by federal and state securities laws. Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the
Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate or articles of incorporation or through
any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary
action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good
faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to
protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (a)
not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such
increase in par value, (b) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally
issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (c) use commercially reasonable efforts
to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be
necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.


 


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


 


4.Exchange, Transfer or Assignment of Warrant. Subject
to Section 2 and Section 3, this Warrant is exchangeable, without expense, at the option of the Holder, upon presentation and surrender
hereof to the Company or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, for other Warrants of the Company (“Warrants”)
of different denominations, entitling the Holder or Holders thereof to purchase in the aggregate the same number of Warrant Shares
purchasable hereunder. Subject to Section 2 and Section 3, upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company or at the office of its
stock transfer agent, if any, together with (a) the Assignment Form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Assignment Form”)
duly executed, (b) an opinion of counsel to the Holder (if required by the Company), in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company,
that registration under the Securities Act is not required, and (c) funds sufficient to pay any transfer tax, the Company shall,
without charge, execute and deliver a new Warrant in the name of the assignee named in the Assignment Form and this Warrant shall
promptly be canceled. Subject to Section 2 and Section 3, this Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants that carry
the same rights upon presentation hereof at the office of the Company or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, together
with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued and signed by the Holder hereof.


 


5.Capital Adjustments. This Warrant is subject to the
following further provisions:


 


(a)Recapitalization, Reclassification and Succession.
If any recapitalization of the Company or reclassification of its Common Stock or any merger or consolidation of the Company into
or with a corporation or other business entity, or the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets
or of any successor corporation’s assets to any other corporation or business entity (any such corporation or other business
entity being included within the meaning of the term “successor corporation”) shall be effected, at any time while
this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired, then, as a condition of such recapitalization, reclassification, merger, consolidation,
sale or transfer, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby the Holder of this Warrant thereafter shall have the right
to receive upon the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1 and in lieu of the Warrant Shares immediately theretofore issuable
upon the exercise of this Warrant, such shares of capital stock, securities or other property as may be issued or payable with
respect to or in exchange for the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Warrant Shares immediately
theretofore issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant had such recapitalization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale
or transfer not taken place, and in each such case, the terms of this Warrant shall be applicable to the shares of stock or other
securities or property receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant after such consummation. 


 






    	7



    	 



    

 


(b)Subdivision or Combination of Shares. If the Company
at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired shall subdivide or combine its Common Stock, the number of Warrant
Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted.


 


(c)Stock Dividends and Distributions. If the Company
at any time while this Warrant is outstanding and unexpired shall issue or pay the holders of its Common Stock, or take a record
of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive, a dividend payable in, or other distribution of,
Common Stock, then the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted to the number of shares
of Common Stock that Holder would have owned immediately following such action had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior
thereto.


 


(d)Price Adjustments. Whenever the number of Warrant
Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant is adjusted pursuant to Sections 5(a), 5(b) or 5(c), the then applicable Warrant
Price shall be proportionately adjusted.


 


(e)Certain Shares Excluded. The number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding at any given time for purposes of the adjustments set forth in this Section 5 shall exclude any shares then directly
or indirectly held in the treasury of the Company.


 


(f)Deferral and Cumulation of De Minimis Adjustments.
The Company shall not be required to make any adjustment pursuant to this Section 5 if the amount of such adjustment would be less
than one percent (1%) of the Warrant Price in effect immediately before the event that would otherwise have given rise to such
adjustment. In such case, however, any adjustment that would otherwise have been required to be made shall be made at the time
of and together with the next subsequent adjustment which, together with any adjustment or adjustments so carried forward, shall
amount to not less than one percent (1%) of the Warrant Price in effect immediately before the event giving rise to such next subsequent
adjustment. All calculations under this Section 5 shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest one-hundredth of a share,
as the case may be, but in no event shall the Company be obligated to issue fractional Warrant Shares or fractional portions of
any securities upon the exercise of the Warrant.


 


(g)Duration of Adjustment. Following each computation
or readjustment as provided in this Section 5, the new adjusted Warrant Price and number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise
of this Warrant shall remain in effect until a further computation or readjustment thereof is required.


 


(h)Notwithstanding any other provision, the Company shall
have the right to increase the number of authorized shares and outstanding shares without the Holder receiving any additional Warrant
or Warrant Shares as a result thereof.


 


6.Notice to Holders.


 


(a)Notice of Record Date. In case:


 


(i)the Company shall take a record of the holders of
its Common Stock (or other stock or securities at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant) for the purpose of entitling
them to receive any dividend (other than a cash dividend payable out of earned surplus of the Company) or other distribution, or
any right to subscribe for or purchase any shares of stock of any class or any other securities, or to receive any other right;


 


(ii)of any capital reorganization of the Company, any
reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, any consolidation with or merger of the Company into another corporation,
or any conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to another corporation; or


 






    	8



    	 



    

 


(iii)of any voluntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up
of the Company;


then, and in each such case, the Company will mail or cause
to be mailed to the Holder hereof at the time outstanding a notice specifying, as the case may be, (i) the date on which a record
is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, and stating the amount and character of such dividend,
distribution or right, or (ii) the date on which such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, conveyance, dissolution,
liquidation or winding-up is to take place, and the time, if any, is to be fixed, as of which the holders of record of Common Stock
(or such stock or securities at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall be entitled to exchange their shares
of Common Stock (or such other stock or securities) for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification,
consolidation, merger, conveyance, dissolution or winding-up. Such notice shall be mailed at least ten (10) calendar days prior
to the record date therein specified, or if no record date shall have been specified therein, at least ten (10) days prior to such
specified date.


 


(b)Certificate of Adjustment. Whenever any adjustment
shall be made pursuant to Section 5 hereof, the Company shall promptly make available and have on file for inspection a certificate
signed by its Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, President or a Vice President, setting forth in reasonable detail the event requiring
the adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated and the Warrant Price and number
of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant after giving effect to such adjustment.


 


7.Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation. Upon receipt
by the Company of evidence satisfactory to it, in the exercise of its reasonable discretion, of the ownership and the loss, theft,
destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory
to the Company and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation thereof, the Company will execute and deliver in
lieu thereof, without expense to the Holder, a new Warrant of like tenor dated the date hereof.


 


8.Warrant Holder Not a Stockholder. The Holder of this
Warrant, as such, shall not be entitled by reason of this Warrant to any rights whatsoever as a stockholder of the Company, including
but not limited to voting rights. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by Holder to exercise this Warrant
to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of Holder, shall give rise to any liability of
Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the
Company or by creditors of the Company.


 


9.Registration Rights. The Company shall include the
Warrant Shares in any registration statement the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission during the time the
