Section
2. Exercise.


 


a) Exercise
of Warrant. Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on
or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Termination Date, by delivery to the Company of a duly executed e-mail attachment
of the Notice of Exercise in the form annexed hereto (the “Notice of Exercise”). Within the earlier of (i) two (2)
Trading Days and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period (as defined in Section 2(d)(i) herein) following
the date of exercise as aforesaid, the Holder shall deliver the aggregate Exercise Price for the shares specified in the applicable Notice
of Exercise by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank unless the cashless exercise procedure specified
in Section 2(c) below is specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise. No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall
any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise be required. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder has purchased
all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and this Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender
this Warrant to the Company for cancellation within three (3) Trading Days of the date on which the final Notice of Exercise is delivered
to the Company. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available
hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the
applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares
purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to deliver any objection to any Notice of
Exercise within one (1) Business Day of receipt of such notice. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge
and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the
number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.


 






    4 


     


    

 


b) Exercise
Price. The exercise price per share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be $1.50, subject to adjustment hereunder (the “Exercise
Price”).


 


c) Cashless
Exercise. If at the time of exercise hereof there is no effective registration statement registering, or the prospectus contained
therein is not current and available for the issuance of the Warrant Shares to the Holder, then this Warrant may also be exercised, in
whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number
of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing ((A-B)(X)) by (A), where:


 


(A)
= as applicable: (i) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of
Exercise is (1) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof on a day that is not a Trading Day or (2) both executed and
delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof on a Trading Day prior to the opening of “regular trading hours” (as defined in
Rule 600(b)(68) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, (ii) at the option of the Holder,
either (y) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise or (z) the Bid Price
of the Common Stock on the principal Trading Market as reported by Bloomberg L.P. as of the time of the Holder’s execution of the
applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is executed during “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day and
is delivered within two (2) hours thereafter (including until two (2) hours after the close of “regular trading hours” on
a Trading Day) pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof or (iii) the VWAP on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if the date of such
Notice of Exercise is a Trading Day and such Notice of Exercise is both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof after
the close of “regular trading hours” on such Trading Day;


 


(B)
= the Exercise Price of this Warrant, as adjusted hereunder; and (X) = the number of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant if such exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than a
cashless exercise.


 


In
connection with clause (ii) in (A) above, upon written request of the Company, the Holder will promptly provide evidence reasonably acceptable
to the Company of the Bid Price of the Common Stock on the principal Trading Market that was reported by Bloomberg L.P. as of the time
of the Holder’s execution of the applicable Notice of Exercise provided that failure to provide such evidence shall not reduce
or otherwise toll the Company’s obligation to deliver the Warrant Shares on or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date.


 






    5 


     


    

 


If
Warrant Shares are issued in such a cashless exercise, the parties acknowledge and agree that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the
Securities Act, the Warrant Shares shall take on the registered characteristics of the Warrants being exercised. The Company agrees not
to take any position contrary to this Section 2(c).


 


d) Mechanics
of Exercise.


 


i. Delivery
of Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. The Company shall cause the Warrant Shares purchased hereunder to be transmitted by the Transfer
Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust
Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such
system and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the
Warrant Shares by Holder or (B) this Warrant is being exercised via cashless exercise, and otherwise by physical delivery of a certificate,
registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Warrant Shares to which
the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that is
the earliest of (i) two (2) Trading Days after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise, (ii) one (1) Trading Day after
delivery of the aggregate Exercise Price to the Company and (iii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period
after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”). Upon delivery
of the Notice of Exercise, 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 of delivery of the Warrant Shares, provided that payment
of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received within the earlier of (i) two (2) Trading
Days and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period following delivery of the Notice of Exercise. If the
Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the Warrant Shares subject to a Notice of Exercise by the Warrant Share Delivery
Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Warrant Shares subject
to such exercise (based on the VWAP of the Common Stock on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise), $10 per Trading Day (increasing
to $20 per Trading Day on the fifth Trading Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after such Warrant
Share Delivery Date until such Warrant Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise. The Company agrees to maintain a transfer
agent that is a participant in the FAST program so long as this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable. As used herein, “Standard
Settlement Period” means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary
Trading Market with respect to the Common Stock as in effect on the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise.


 


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


 






    6 


     


    

 


iii. Rescission
Rights. If the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 2(d)(i)
by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise by notifying the Company of such rescission
within ten (10) days of delivering the Notice of Exercise.


 


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


 


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


 


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


 


e) Nasdaq
19.99% Cap. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Warrant or the other Transaction Documents (defined below),
the Company and Holder agree that the total cumulative number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued to Holder and its Affiliates
hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents may not exceed the requirements of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) (“Nasdaq
19.99% Cap”), except that such limitation will not apply following Approval (defined below). If the number of shares of Common
Stock issued to Holder and its Affiliates under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents reaches the Nasdaq 19.99% Cap, so as
not to violate the 20% limit established in Listing Rule 5635(d), the Company, at its election, will use reasonable commercial efforts
to obtain stockholder approval of this Warrant and the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant
in excess of the Nasdaq 19.99% Cap in accordance with the requirements of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) (the “Approval”).
“Transaction Documents” shall mean this Warrant, the Certificate of Designations of 7.00% Series C Convertible Preferred
Stock of the Company, the Amended and Restated Series C Warrant, the Amended and Restated Series D Warrant, the other Series E Warrant,
the Series F Warrants, the Series G Warrant, the Letter Agreement, the Amended and Restated Assigned JKP Note, the Amended and Restated
Assigned IRG Note, the Second Amendment to JKP Note, and the Sixth Amendment to Term Loan Agreement.

Section
3. Certain Adjustments.


 


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


 


b) Subsequent
Rights Offerings. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 3(a) above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells
any Common Stock Equivalents or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any
class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms
applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number
of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant immediately before the date on which a record is taken for
the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares
of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights.


 


c) Pro
Rata Distributions. During such time as this Warrant is outstanding, if the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution
of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of shares of Common Stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including,
without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification,
corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after
the issuance of this Warrant, then, in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent
that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete
exercise of this Warrant immediately before the date of which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record is taken,
the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution.


 






    8 


     


    

 


d) Fundamental
Transaction. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions
effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company, directly or indirectly, effects any
sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series
of related transactions, or (iii) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification,
reorganization or recapitalization of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively
converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property(each a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any
subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable
upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor
or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate
Consideration”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock
for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction. For purposes of any such exercise, the determination
of the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration
issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price
among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration.
If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then
the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such
Fundamental Transaction. The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor
(the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant in accordance
with the provisions of this Section 3(d) pursuant to written agreements (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction
and shall deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially
similar in form and substance to this Warrant which is exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such Successor
Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (without
regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an exercise price which applies
the exercise price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the shares of Common Stock
pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of shares of capital stock and such
exercise price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental
Transaction). Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for
(so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Warrant referring to the “Company”
shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations
of the Company under this Warrant with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein.


 






    9 


     


    

 


e) Weighted
Average Anti-Dilution Adjustment. The Exercise Price shall be subject to a weighted average anti-dilution adjustment from time to
time as follows:


 


i. If
the Company shall at any time or from time to time during the period from the Warrant Date to the Termination Date, issue any additional
shares of Common Stock (or be deemed to have issued any shares of Common Stock as provided herein), other than Excluded Securities (as
defined in Section 3(e)(iii)) and Excluded Transactions (as defined in Section 3(e)(iv)) (such additional shares, “Additional
Shares”), without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to
the issuance of Common Stock, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance shall forthwith be lowered to a price (calculated
to the nearest one-hundredth of a cent) determined in accordance with the following formula:


 


EP2
= EP1 * (A + B) ÷ (A + C)   


 


For
purposes of the foregoing formula, the following definitions shall apply:

                                            of Additional Shares of Common Stock (including any shares of Common Stock deemed to have
                                            been issued pursuant to Section 3(e)(ii)(D));

                                            Shares of Common Stock had been issued at the price per share equal to EP1 (determined by
                                            dividing the aggregate consideration received by the Company in respect of such issue by

ii. For
the purposes of any adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to Section 3(e)(i), the following provisions shall be applicable:


 


(A) In
the case of the issuance of Common Stock for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor before deducting
therefrom any discounts, commissions or other expenses allowed, paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting or otherwise in
connection with the issuance and sale thereof.


 


(B) In
the case of the issuance of Common Stock for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other than cash shall
be deemed to be the fair market value thereof as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, irrespective of any
accounting treatment.


 


(C) In
the case of the issuance of Common Stock without consideration, the consideration shall be deemed to be $0.01 per share.


 


(D) In
the case of the issuance of (x) options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock, (y) debt or securities by their
terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock or (z) options to purchase rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable
securities:


 


a. the
aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of such options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe
for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such options or rights were issued and for a consideration equal to
the consideration (determined in the manner provided in subdivisions (A), (B) and (C) above), if any, received by the Company upon the
issuance of such options, warrants or rights plus the minimum purchase price provided in such options, warrants or rights for the Common
Stock covered thereby; and


 


b. the
aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of or in exchange for any such convertible or exchangeable
debt or securities or upon the exercise of options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable
securities and subsequent conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were issued
or such options or warrants or rights were issued and for a consideration equal to the consideration received by the Company for any
such securities and related options or warrants or rights (excluding any cash received on account of accrued interest or accrued dividends),
plus the additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Company upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or the exercise
of any related options or warrants or rights (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in subdivisions
(A), (B) and (C) above).


 






    11 


     


    

 


iii. For
purposes of Section 3(e), the term “Excluded Securities” shall mean (i) shares of Common Stock issued to officers,
employees, directors or consultants of Company and its subsidiaries, pursuant to any agreement, plan or arrangement approved by the Board
of Directors of the Company, or options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such Common Stock, or debt or securities by
their terms convertible into or exchangeable for such Common Stock, or options or warrants to purchase or rights to subscribe for such
convertible or exchangeable securities pursuant to such agreement, plan or arrangement; (ii) shares of Common Stock issued as a stock
dividend or upon any stock split or other subdivision or combination of shares of Common Stock; or (iii) securities issued pursuant to
the acquisition of another corporation or other entity by the Company by merger or purchase of stock or purchase of all or substantially
all of such other corporation’s or other entity’s assets whereby the Company owns not less than a majority of the voting power of such
other corporation or other entity following such acquisition or purchase.


 


iv. For
purposes of Section 3(e), the term “Excluded Transactions” shall mean sales of shares of Common Stock issued under
the Company’s “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) promulgated under the Securities Act; provided,
however, that each financial quarter during which the Company’s sales of such shares reaches a multiple of $5 million aggregate
consideration beginning with sales occurring after March 1, 2022 for an average consideration per share for such multiple of $5 million
aggregate consideration that is less than the Exercise Price then in effect at the end of such financial quarter, the Exercise Price
in effect at the end of such financial quarter shall forthwith be lowered to a price (calculated to the nearest one-hundredth of a cent)
determined in accordance with the formula set forth in Section 3(e)(i), with the following adjustments: (A) “A” shall mean
the difference of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately following the sale of a share under the Company’s
“at the market offering” that reaches a multiple of $5 million (including any shares of Common Stock deemed to have been
issued pursuant to Section 3(e)(ii)(D)), minus (2) the number of shares of Common Stock issued under the Company’s “at the
market offering” for such multiple of $5 million and (B) “C” shall mean the number of such shares of Common Stock issued
under the Company’s “at the market offering” for such multiple of $5 million..


 


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


 


g) Notice
to Holder.


 


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


 






    12 


     


    

 


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


 


h) Voluntary
Adjustment By Company. Subject to the rules and regulations of the Trading Market, the Company may at any time during the term of
this Warrant, subject to the prior written consent of the Holder, reduce the then current Exercise Price to any amount and for any period
of time deemed appropriate by the board of directors of the Company.


 






    13 


     


    

 


Section
4. Transfer of Warrant.


 


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


 


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


 


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


 


Section
5. Miscellaneous.


 


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


 


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


 






    14 


     


    

 


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


 


d) Authorized
Shares.


 


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


 


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


 






    15 


     


    

 


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


 


e) Governing
Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be governed by and
construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of
law thereof (other than Section 5-1401 of the General Obligations law). Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretations,
enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Warrant (whether brought against a party hereto or their respective
affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and
federal courts sitting in the City of New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and
federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith
or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit,
action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding
is improper or is an inconvenient venue for such proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents
to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight
delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Warrant and agrees that such
service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit
in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. If either party shall commence an action, suit or proceeding
to enforce any provisions of this Warrant, the prevailing party in such action, suit or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party
for their reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution
of such action or proceeding.


 


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


 


g) Nonwaiver
and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as
a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the Holder’s rights, powers or remedies. Without limiting any other provision of
this Warrant, if the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material
damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to the Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including,
but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by the Holder in collecting
any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.


 


h) Notices.
Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries to be provided by the Holders hereunder to the Company shall be in writing
and delivered personally, or e-mail, or sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service, addressed to the Company, at 2626
Fulton Drive, NW, Canton, OH 44718, Attention: (i) Chief Executive Officer, email address: michael.crawford@HOFvillage.com and (ii) General
Counsel, email address: Tara.Charnes@HOFVILLAGE.com, or such other email address or address as the Company may specify for such purposes
by notice to the Holders. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries to be provided by the Company hereunder shall be
in writing and delivered personally, by facsimile or electronic transmission, or sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service
addressed to each Holder at the facsimile number, email address or address of such Holder appearing on the books of the Company. Any
notice or other communication or deliveries hereunder shall be deemed given and effective on the earliest of (i) the time of transmission,
if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number or via email at the email address set forth in this
Section prior to 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on any date, (ii) the next Trading Day after the date of transmission, if such notice
or communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number or via email at the email address set forth in this Section on a
day that is not a Trading Day or later than 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on any Trading Day, (iii) the second Trading Day following
the date of mailing, if sent by U.S. nationally recognized overnight courier service, or (iv) upon actual receipt by the party to whom
such notice is required to be given. To the extent that any notice provided hereunder constitutes, or contains, material, non-public

    16 


     


    

 


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


 


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


 


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


 


l) Amendment.
This Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company, on the one hand, and
the Holder or the beneficial owner of this Warrant, on the other hand.


 


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


 


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


 


o) Cancellation.
This Warrant shall be cancelled without any further action on the part of Holder or the Company, in the event that the Company repays
in full on or before March 1, 2023, the amended and restated promissory note, dated as of March 1, 2022, issued by the Company to IRG,
LLC.
