 2. Registration of Warrant. 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. 
 3. Registration of Transfers. The
Company shall register the transfer of any portion of this Warrant in the Warrant Register, upon surrender of this Warrant, with the Form of Assignment attached hereto as Appendix A duly completed and signed, to the Company at its
address specified herein. Upon any such registration and transfer, a new warrant in substantially the form of a Warrant (any such new warrant, a “New Warrant”), 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 of a holder of a Warrant. 
 4. Exercise and Duration of Warrant.

 (a) This Warrant shall be exercisable, either in its entirety or for a portion of the number of Warrant Shares, by the registered Holder at
any time and from time to time from and after the initial Exercise Date (as defined below) to 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 the Holder hereof shall have no right to purchase any additional Warrant Shares hereunder. 
 (b) A Holder may exercise this Warrant by delivering to the Company, in accordance with Section 13, this Warrant, together with (i) an exercise notice, in the form attached hereto as Appendix B (the
“Exercise Notice”), appropriately completed and duly signed, and (ii) (A) payment of the Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised pursuant to a Cash Exercise (as
set forth in Section 4(c) below) or (B) if available pursuant to Section 4(d) below, by notifying the Company that this Warrant is being exercised pursuant to a Cashless Exercise (as set forth in Section 4(d)
below), and the date such items are received by the Company is an “Exercise Date.” Execution and delivery of an Exercise Notice in respect of less than all of the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall
result in the cancellation of the original Warrant and issuance of a New Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares. 
 (c) Cash Exercise. In the event the Holder has elected to pay the Exercise Price in cash, it shall pay the Exercise Price by certified bank check payable to the order of the Company or by wire transfer of
immediately available funds in accordance with the Company’s instructions (a “Cash Exercise”). 
 (d)
Cashless Exercise. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if, at any time a registration statement covering the resale of the Warrant Shares that are the subject of the Exercise Notice by the Holder pursuant to the
Securities Act (the “Unavailable Warrant Shares”) is not available for the resale of such Unavailable Warrant Shares, and the Company is otherwise obligated to have a resale registration statement available for such resale,
the Holder 

  

 -3- 








 
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 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”): 
 

 
 For purposes of the foregoing formula, 
 A = the total number of shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised. 
 B = the weighted
average price per share of the Common Stock (as reported by Bloomberg) on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the Exercise Notice. 
 C = the Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Warrant Shares at the time of such exercise. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein or in the Securities Purchase Agreement dated August 3, 2009 between the Company, the Holder, and other parties named therein (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”), the Holder agrees that the Holder’s ability
to elect a Cashless Exercise if there is not an effective registration statement covering the Warrant Shares represents the sole and exclusive monetary remedy of the Holder for a registration default with respect to the Warrant Shares, and in no
event shall the Company be required to satisfy the Warrants through net cash settlement. 
 (e) Except as otherwise provided for herein, this
Warrant shall not entitle the Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company by virtue of the ownership hereof. 
 5. Delivery of Warrant Shares. 
 (a) Upon exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than
three Trading Days after the Exercise Date) issue or cause to be issued and deliver or cause to be delivered to the Holder, in such name or names as the Holder may designate, a certificate for the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise (the
“Certificate”) bearing no restrictive legends. The Holder, or any Person so designated by the Holder to receive the Warrant Shares, shall be deemed to have become holder of record of such Warrant Shares as of the Exercise
Date. 
 (b) Neither these securities nor the securities for which these securities are exercisable have been registered with the Commission
or the securities commission of any state in reliance upon an exemption from registration under the Securities Act, and, accordingly, may not be 

  

 -4- 








 
offered or sold except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an available exemption from, or in a
transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and in accordance with applicable state securities laws. The Holder acknowledges and agrees that the Warrant may be sold only pursuant to an applicable exemption from
the registration requirements of the Securities Act and that the Warrant Shares may only be sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or in accordance with any applicable exemption from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act. 
 (c) This Warrant is exercisable, either in its entirety or, from time to time, for a portion of the
number of Warrant Shares. Upon surrender of this Warrant following one or more partial exercises, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued, at its expense, a New Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares.

 (d) 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 which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with the issuance of Warrant Shares. Nothing herein shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies
available to it hereunder, in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver Common Stock upon exercise of this 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 which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue, delivery or registration of any certificates for
Warrant Shares or Warrant in a name other than that of the Holder and that the Holder will be required to pay any tax with respect to cash received in lieu of fractional shares. The Holder shall be responsible for all other tax liability of the
Holder 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, at the sole expense of the Holder (such expenses, if any imposed by the Company to be reasonable), shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and
substitution for and upon cancellation hereof, or in lieu of and in substitution for this Warrant, a New Warrant, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction and customary and
reasonable indemnity, if requested by the Company. 
  

 -5- 








 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 which
are then issuable and deliverable upon the exercise of this entire Warrant, free from all taxes, liens, claims, encumbrances with respect to the issuance of such Warrant Shares and will not be subject to any pre-emptive rights or similar rights
(taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 9 hereof). 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, fully paid and nonassessable. The Company will take all such action as may be necessary to assure that such shares of Common Stock may be issued as provided herein without violation of
any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of any securities exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Common Stock may be listed or quoted, as the case may be. 
 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. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding,
pays a dividend on its Common Stock payable in additional shares of Common Stock or otherwise makes a distribution on any class of capital stock that is payable in shares of Common Stock, then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied
by a fraction, (A) the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the opening of business on the day after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such
dividend or distribution and (B) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the distribution date of such dividend or distribution. Any adjustment made pursuant to this
Section 9(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution; provided, however, that if following such record date the Company
rescinds or modifies such dividend or distribution, the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted (as of the date that the Company effectively rescinds or modifies such dividend or distribution) to take into account the effect of such rescinded
or modified dividend or distribution on the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 9(a). 
  

 -6- 








 (b) Stock Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding,
(i) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, or (ii) combines 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, (A) the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such event and (B) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such
event. Any adjustment pursuant to this Section 9(b) shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination. 
 (c) Reclassifications. A reclassification of the Common Stock (other than any such reclassification in connection with a merger or consolidation to which Section 9(e) applies) into shares of any
other class of stock shall be deemed: 
 (i) a distribution by the Company to the holders of its Common Stock of such shares of such other
class of stock for the purposes and within the meaning of this Section 9; and 
 (ii) if the outstanding shares of Common Stock
shall be changed into a larger or smaller number of shares of Common Stock as part of such reclassification, such change shall be deemed a subdivision or combination, as the case may be, of the outstanding shares of Common Stock for the purposes and
within the meaning of Section 9(b). 
 (d) Other Distributions. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is
outstanding, distributes to holders of Common Stock (i) evidences of its indebtedness, (ii) shares of any class of capital stock, (iii) rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of any class of capital stock or
(iv) any other asset, other than a distribution of Common Stock covered by Section 9(a), (in each case, “Distributed Property”), then in each such case the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the
record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution (and the Exercise Price thereafter applicable) shall be adjusted (effective on and after such record date) to equal the product of such Exercise Price
multiplied by a fraction, (A) the numerator of which shall be Market Price on such record date less the then fair market value of the Distributed Property distributed in respect of one outstanding share of Common Stock, which, if the
Distributed Property is other than cash or marketable securities, shall be as reasonably determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company whose determination shall be described in a board resolution, and (B) the denominator of
which shall be the Market Price on such record date; provided, however, that if following the record date for such distribution the Company rescinds or modifies such distribution, the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted (as of the
date that the Company effectively rescinds or modifies such distribution) to take into account the effect of such rescinded or modified distribution on the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 9(d). 
 (e) 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, (ii) the Company effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets or a majority of its stock acquired by a third party, in each case in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any
tender offer or exchange offer by another Person is completed pursuant to which all or substantially all of the holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property or (iv) there shall
occur any merger of another Person into 

  

 -7- 








 
the Company whereby the Common Stock is cancelled, converted or reclassified into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (in any such case, a
“Fundamental Transaction”), then, as a condition to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, the Company shall (or, in the case of any Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the surviving entity, the
Company shall take all reasonable steps to cause such other Person to execute and deliver to the Holder of this Warrant a written instrument providing that: 
 (x) so long as this Warrant remains outstanding, upon the exercise hereof at any time on or after the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction and on such terms and subject to such conditions as shall be nearly
equivalent as may be practicable to the provisions set forth in this Warrant, this Warrant shall be exercisable into, in lieu of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise prior to such consummation, the securities or other property (the
“Substituted Property”) that would have been received in connection with such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which this Warrant was exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental
Transaction, assuming such holder of Common Stock: 
 (A) is not a Person with which the Company consolidated or into which the Company
merged or which merged into the Company or to which such sale or transfer was made, as the case may be (a “Constituent Person”), or an Affiliate of a Constituent Person; and 
 (B) failed to exercise such Holder’s rights of election, if any, as to the kind or amount of securities, cash and other property receivable in
connection with such Fundamental Transaction (provided, however, that if the kind or amount of securities, cash or other property receivable in connection with such Fundamental Transaction is not the same for each share of Common Stock held
immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction by a Person other than a Constituent Person or an Affiliate thereof and in respect of which such rights of election shall not have been exercised (a “Non-Electing Share”),
then, for the purposes of this Section 9(e), the kind and amount of securities, cash and other property receivable in connection with such Fundamental Transaction by each Non-Electing Share shall be deemed to be the kind and amount so
receivable per share by a plurality of the Non-Electing Shares); and 
 (y) the rights and obligations of the Company (or, in the event of a
transaction in which the Company is not the surviving Person, such other Person) and the Holder in respect of Substituted Property shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the rights and obligations of the Company and Holder in respect
of Common Stock hereunder. 
 Such written instrument shall provide for adjustments which, for events subsequent to the effective date of
such written instrument, shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 9. The above provisions of this Section 9(e) shall similarly apply to successive Fundamental
Transactions. 
 (f) Adjustment of Warrant Shares. Simultaneously with any adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to
paragraphs (a) through (d) of this Section 9, the number of Warrant Shares 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 increased or decreased number of Warrant Shares shall be the same as the aggregate Exercise Price payable for the Warrant Shares immediately prior to such adjustment. 
  

 -8- 








 (g) 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.

 (h) Adjustments. Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 9, no adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be
required if such adjustment is less than $0.01; provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this Section 9(h) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account for purposes of any
subsequent adjustment required to be made hereunder. 
 (i) Notice of Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment pursuant to
this Section 9, the Company will promptly deliver to the Holder a certificate executed by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring such adjustment and the method by which such
adjustment was calculated, the adjusted Exercise Price and the adjusted number or type of Warrant Shares or other securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (as applicable). The Company will retain at its office copies of all such
certificates and cause the same to be available for inspection at said office during normal business hours by the Holder or any prospective purchaser of the Warrant designated by the Holder. 
 (j) Notice of Corporate Events. If the Company (i) declares a dividend or any other distribution of cash, securities or other property in
respect of its Common Stock, including, without limitation, any granting of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any capital stock of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, (ii) authorizes, approves, enters into any agreement
contemplating, or solicits stockholder approval for, any Fundamental Transaction or (iii) authorizes the voluntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then the Company shall deliver to the Holder a notice
describing the material terms and conditions of such transaction at least 15 Trading Days prior to the applicable record or effective date on which a Person would need to hold Common Stock in order to participate in or vote with respect to such
transaction, and the Company will take all steps reasonably necessary in order to ensure that the Holder is given the practical opportunity to exercise this Warrant prior to such time so as to participate in or vote with respect to such transaction;
provided, however, that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be described in such notice. 
 10. Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue or cause to be issued fractional Warrant Shares on the exercise of this Warrant.
If any fraction of a Warrant Share would, except for the provisions of this Section 10, be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall make a cash payment to the Holder equal to (a) such fraction multiplied by
(b) the Market Price on the Exercise Date of one full Warrant Share. 
 11. Listing on Securities Exchanges. The Company has
agreed to list, and will use its reasonable best efforts to maintain the listing of, the Warrant Shares on Nasdaq consistent with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement. In furtherance and not in limitation of any other provision of this
Warrant, if the Company at any time shall list any Common Stock on any Eligible Market other than Nasdaq, the Company will use its reasonable best efforts, at its 

  

 -9- 








 
expense, to simultaneously list the Warrant Shares (and use its reasonable best efforts to maintain such listing) on such Eligible Market, upon official
notice of issuance following the exercise of this Warrant; and the Company will so list, register and use its reasonable best efforts to maintain such listing on any Eligible Market any Other Securities, if and at the time that any securities of
like class or similar type shall be listed on such Eligible Market by the Company. 
 12. Remedies. The Company stipulates that the
remedies at law of the Holder of this Warrant in the event of any default or threatened default by the Company in the performance of or compliance with any of the terms of this Warrant are not and will not be adequate, and that such terms may be
specifically enforced by a decree for the specific performance of any agreement contained herein or by an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof or otherwise. 
 13. Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries hereunder (including without limitation any Exercise Notice) shall be in
writing and shall be mailed by certified mail, return receipt requested, or by a nationally recognized courier service or delivered (in person or by facsimile), against receipt to the party to whom such notice or other communication is to be given.
Any notice or other communication given by means permitted by this Section 13 shall be deemed given at the time of receipt thereof. The address for such notices or communications shall be as set forth below: 
  

			
	If to the Company:	 	 Antigenics Inc.
 162 Fifth Avenue, Suite 900,

New York, New York 10010

		
	If to the Holder:	 	As set forth on the signature page to the Purchase Agreement.

 Or such other address as is provided to such other party in accordance with this Section 13.

  

 -10- 








 14. Warrant Agent. The Company shall serve as warrant agent under this Warrant. Upon a prompt
written notice to the Holder, the Company may appoint a new warrant agent. Any Person into which any new warrant agent may be merged, any Person resulting from any consolidation to which any new warrant agent shall be a party or any Person to which
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. 
  

 -11- 








 15. Exercise Limitations; Holder’s Restrictions. The Company shall not effect any exercise of
this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 15 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise as set forth on the applicable Notice of
Exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any other person or entity acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates), would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership
Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the
Holder or any of its Affiliates and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein
beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 15, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act
and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely
responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 15 applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned
by the Holder together with any Affiliates) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of an Exercise Notice shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether
this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company shall
have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 15, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (A) the
Company’s most recent periodic or annual report, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (C) any other notice by the Company or the transfer agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within two Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding
shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its Affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common
Stock was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant. The Holder, upon not less than 61 days’ prior notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 15, provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds
9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of 

  

 -12- 








 
shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant held by the Holder and the provisions of this Section 15 shall continue to apply. Any such increase
or decrease will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered
to the Company. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 15 to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or
inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a
successor holder of this Warrant. 
 16. Not Used. 
 17. Miscellaneous. 
 (a) This Warrant may be assigned by the Holder. This Warrant may not be assigned
by the Company, except to a successor in the event of a Fundamental Transaction. 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 and their successors and assigns. 
 (b) The Company will not, by amendment of its governing documents 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 action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company
(i) will not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon exercise thereof, and (ii) will take all such action as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and
