4.                   REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF EACH PURCHASER.







Each Purchaser individually and not jointly hereby represents warrants and covenants with the Company as follows.  For avoidance of doubt, these warranties and representations are made to the Company and their agents and representatives and affiliates and other members of the selling group (if any) and their representatives and affiliates, as third party beneficiaries hereto:







4.1                Legal Power.

The execution and performance of the terms under this Agreement and the Accredited Investor Questionnaire commencing Page SP-2 appended at the end of this Agreement (the “Questionnaire”)1 and Purchaser Signature Page hereto, have been duly authorized,  executed and delivered by such Purchaser, and, upon due execution and delivery by the Company, this Agreement will be a valid and binding agreement of such Purchaser.







4.3               Access to Information.  Purchaser understands that an investment in the Securities involves a high degree of risk and long term or permanent illiquidity, including, risk of loss of their entire investment.  Purchaser also understands that the Company has received notice of delisting from the NYSE MKT as a result of its inadequate net capital and, that the Company will require at least $1,600,000 (inclusive of this financing, or $1,000,000 in addition, presuming the full offering amount is sold hereby) of additional equity financing in order to remain listed and does not have any commitment therefore.  Purchaser and its members and manager have been given full and complete access to the Company for the purpose of obtaining such information as such Purchaser or its qualified representative has reasonably requested in connection with the decision to purchase the Securities.  Purchaser represents that such Purchaser and its investors have received and reviewed copies of the SEC Reports.  Purchaser represents that such Purchaser has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the officers of the Company regarding its business prospects and the Shares and Warrants, all as Purchaser (or Purchaser’s investor’s representatives necessary to make an informed investment decision to purchase the Shares and Warrants.







4.4                Restricted Securities.







4.4.1        Purchaser has been advised that none of the Securities have been registered under the Securities Act or any other applicable securities laws and that Shares are being offered and sold pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D and/or Regulation S thereunder, and that the Company’s reliance upon Section 4(a)(2) and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D is predicated in part on such Purchaser representations as contained herein (including, for avoidance of doubt, the Questionnaire), which are partially dependant on the information provided by Purchasers’ investors.  Each Purchaser acknowledges that the Securities will be issued as “restricted securities” as defined by Rule 144 promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act.  None of the Securities may be resold in the absence of an effective registration thereof under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws unless, in the opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, an applicable exemption from registration is available.

4.4.2        Each Purchaser represents that such Purchaser is acquiring the Shares for such Purchaser’s own account, and not as nominee or agent, for investment purposes only and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, a distribution, as that term is used in Section 2(11) of the Securities Act, in a manner which would require registration under the Securities Act or any state securities laws.







4.4.3        Each Purchaser understands and acknowledges that the certificates representing the Shares and Warrants and, if issued, the Warrant Shares, will bear substantially the following legend:







“THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR APPLICABLE STATE LAW, AND NO INTEREST THEREIN MAY BE SOLD, DISTRIBUTED, ASSIGNED, OFFERED, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED UNLESS (i) THERE IS AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS COVERING ANY SUCH TRANSACTION INVOLVING SAID SECURITIES, (ii) THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN OPINION OF LEGAL COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY STATING THAT SUCH TRANSACTION IS EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION, OR (iii) THE COMPANY OTHERWISE SATISFIES ITSELF THAT SUCH TRANSACTION IS EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION.”







4.4.4        Each Purchaser acknowledges that an investment in the Shares and Warrants (and, if exercised, the Warrant Shares) is not liquid and is transferable only under limited conditions.  Each Purchaser acknowledges that such securities must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available.  Purchaser is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, which permits limited resale of restricted securities subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and that such Rule is not now available and, in the future, may not become available for resale of any of the Securities.







4.5                Purchaser Sophistication and Ability to Bear Risk of Loss.  Purchaser acknowledges that it is able to protect its interests in connection with the acquisition of the Securities and can bear the economic risk of investment in such securities without producing a material adverse change in such Purchaser’s financial condition.  Purchaser, either alone or with such Purchaser’s representative(s), otherwise has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that such Purchaser is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Securities.







4.6                Purchases by Groups.  Purchaser understands that it is acquiring greater than 5% of the Company’s shares and that it will be required to file disclosure reports pursuant to Section 13 and Section 16 of the Rules of the 1934 Act.

5.3                Additional Share Issuances; Full Ratchet Share Adjustment.







(a)                 Full Ratchet Adjustment.  In the event that at any time commencing the first Closing and continuing for a period of twelve (12) months (as may be adjusted, the “Adjustment Period”) following the final Closing or termination of the offering of Units offered in this entire offering, except for Excepted Issuances (as defined in Section (5.3(c) below), the Company shall agree to issue or actually issue or grant the right to receive any Common Stock, preferred securities, or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock (or modify any of the foregoing which may be outstanding)  (“Common Stock Equivalent”) to any person or entity at a price per share or conversion price or exercise price per share (the “Lower Per Share Price”) which shall be less than the per share purchase price of initially $0.20, as adjusted for stock splits, dividends and reclassifications, (the “Per Share Price”) then in effect (“Lower Price Issuance”), then, automatically and without any obligation of or notice to Purchaser, the Per Share Price paid herein shall be amended, reduced, restated and deemed to be equal to such number of additional shares of Common Stock (the “Additional Shares”) as equals the sum of the Purchase Price paid hereby as set forth above, divided by the Lower Per Share Price, less the number Shares previously issued to the Purchaser.  Thereafter, and for purposes of calculating future adjustments or issuances of Additional Shares, the Per Share Price shall be amended and revised to be the Lower Per Share Price for purposes of future calculations of this adjustment.  Certificates for Additional Shares shall be unconditionally delivered by Federal Express to the Purchaser within 7 business days of the date of the Lower Price Issuance of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (or, if earlier, date of commitment to make the Lower Price Issuance of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents).  The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Purchasers and their assigns may be irreparably harmed and injured (including loss of profits) if certificates of Additional Shares are not issued promptly in accordance with the provisions hereof and shall compensate, in addition to enforcement costs, any lost profits or expenses of Purchaser or their rightful assigns in the event that a court finds in favor of such any of such persons in any action by such persons to enforce their rights.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, and for avoidance of doubt, adjustments and issuance of Additional Shares shall only be issued and granted if and to the extent that Share holders hold Shares at the time of issuance or commitment for such Common Stock Equivalent transaction.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as the Company is listed for trading and trading on the NYSE MKT, the number of Additional Shares that are issuable shall, when combined with all Shares, not exceed 4,557,035 shares of common stock (which number equals 19.9% of the Company’s outstanding common stock as measured on the date immediately prior to the date this Agreement is binding on the Purchaser and the Company) (the “Share Issuance Limit”).  In the event that a Lower Price Issuance is made which would require an adjustment and issuance of Additional Shares, the Company shall issue the maximum amount permissible under NYSE MKT rules as provided in the previous sentence.







(b)                Effective Price.  For purposes of this Section 5.3, in connection with any issuance of any Common Stock Equivalents, (i) the maximum number of Common Stock potentially issuable at any time upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Common Stock Equivalents (the “Deemed Number”) shall be deemed to be outstanding or subscribed for and required to be issued upon issuance of such Common Stock Equivalents, (ii) the deemed issue price (“Effective Price”) applicable to such Common Stock Equivalents shall equal the minimum dollar value of consideration payable to the Company to purchase such Common Stock Equivalents and to convert, exercise or exchange them into Common Stock, divided by the Deemed Number, and (iii) no further adjustment shall be made to the Per Share Price upon the actual issuance of Common Stock upon conversion exercise or exchange of such Common Stock Equivalents if issued at or higher than the Effective Price.  Common Stock issued or issuable by the Company for no consideration will be deemed to have been issued or to be issuable for $0.001 per share of Common Stock.








14







(c)                Excepted Issuances.  For purposes of Section 5.3, “Excepted Issuance” shall mean in respect to: (i) Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents issued in connection with this Agreement or otherwise related to this Agreement for other or subsequent investors in said offering, (ii) the Company’s issuance of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents upon the exercise or conversion of options, warrants or convertible notes or other securities, outstanding on the date hereof as specifically described in SEC Reports (but not if the amounts and exercise prices of the same are not both already described in the SEC Reports) or specifically disclosed herein, (iii) grants or issuances to officers, directors or employees or other service providers in connection with Board approved (including majority of disinterested and independent board members) stock option, stock, incentive or similar plan granted to officers, directors or employees and other service providers, (iv) up to 1,000,000 shares issued to unaffiliated service providers not pursuant to any plan, (v) the issuance of securities as full or partial consideration in connection with a bona fide merger, asset acquisition, joint venture or reorganization (other than a mere reincorporation transaction) approved by the Board of Directors of the Company and the majority of disinterested members of the Board. For avoidance of doubt, the foregoing Excepted Issuance exceptions shall only apply during the period in which anti dilution adjustments are made for Lower Price Issuances in accordance with Section 5.3.  Common Stock issued or issuable by the Company for services will be deemed to have been issued or to be issued for the value booked in the Company’s public financial statements, or as booked on the recipients 1099 or other tax reporting by the Company in connection with such issuance, whichever is higher.







5.4                 [Omitted.]







5.5                 Delisting.  In the event that the Company’s Common Stock are delisted from trading on the NYSE MKT for any reason while the Purchaser or its assigns still own at least 51% of the Shares issued hereby, then:







(a)                 The “Adjustment Period” of 12 months following the final Closing of this offering shall be extended to 36 months following final Closing of the Offering, and,







(b)                The 19.9% Share Issuance Limit shall no longer apply and there shall be no limits on the number of Additional Shares issuable pursuant to Section 5.3(a); and







(c)                 The Company shall pay a penalty to the Purchaser in the amount of 3,000,000 shares of Common stock (the “Delisting Shares”).







5.6                Insider Information.  The Company shall not provide to Purchaser or its managers or control persons any information that would be deemed confidential or “insider” information in accordance with Regulation FD.  To the extent that the Company or its management provide Purchaser or its affiliates with any non-public information, the Purchaser may advise the Company of its becoming aware of such information and, the Company shall make all appropriate filings and public disclosures as it deems are reasonably necessary from time to time in order to ensure that Purchaser does not have confidential information which is not otherwise disseminated to the public by the Company on Form 8-K, press release or other disclosure SEC Reports.







5.7                Board Designee.  The Company shall, within (60) days of the first Closing Date, appoint two new independent members to the Company’s Board of Directors, which appointee’s shall be subject to the prior approval of the Purchaser. This nomination approval right for 2 directors shall continue until the Purchaser hold less than 51% of the initial number of Shares acquired hereby.







            5.8                Filing of Reports.  For so long as the Purchaser owns 51% or more of the Shares or Warrants (including Warrant Shares) acquired hereby, the Company shall file on a timely basis, any and all SEC Reports or amendments thereto, as it is required to file in order to remain fully current with all of its reporting obligations under the Exchange Act so as to enable sales without resale limitations, pursuant to Rule 144, as amended (“Rule 144 Sales”). The Company shall pay for all opinions or similar letters to its transfer agent, as well as pay for all transfer agent costs, relating to the removal of the Rule 144 restrictive legend on share certificates representing the Shares or Warrant Shares. For avoidance of doubt, all references herein to filings to be made on a “timely basis” shall include and mean, any extension periods permissible under Rule 12b-25 of the Exchange Act, provided that the Company has complied with such rule, but not beyond said extension date.








15

The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Purchaser and each underwriter, if any, which facilitates the disposition of Registrable Securities, and each of their respective officers and directors and each Person who controls such underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act (each such Person being sometimes hereinafter referred to as an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Indemnified Person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement or an omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, not misleading, or arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Prospectus or an omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and the Company hereby agrees to reimburse such Indemnified Person for all reasonable legal and other expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as and when such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to any such Indemnified Person in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon (i) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement made in, or an omission or alleged omission from, such Registration Statement or Prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Indemnified Person expressly for use therein or (ii) in the case of the occurrence of an event of the type specified in Section 6.2.2(e), the use by the Indemnified Person of an outdated or defective Prospectus after the Company has provided to such Indemnified Person an updated Prospectus correcting the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission giving rise to such loss, claim, damage or liability.








18







(b)            Indemnification by the Purchasers and Underwriters.  Each Purchaser agrees, as a consequence of the inclusion of any of its Registrable Securities in a Registration Statement, and each underwriter, if any, which facilitates the disposition of Registrable Securities shall agree, severally and not jointly, as a consequence of facilitating such disposition of Registrable Securities to (i) indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors (including any person who, with his or her consent, is named in the Registration Statement as a director nominee of the Company), its officers who sign any Registration Statement and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company or such other persons may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such Registration Statement or Prospectus or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in light of the circumstances under which they were made, in the case of the Prospectus), not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Purchaser or underwriter expressly for use therein, and (ii) reimburse the Company for any legal or other expenses incurred by the Company in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that such Purchaser shall not be liable under this Section 6.2.5(b) for any amount in excess of the net proceeds paid to such Purchaser in respect of Registrable Securities sold by it.







(c)            Notice of Claims, etc.  Promptly after receipt by a Person seeking indemnification pursuant to this Section 6.2.5 (an “Indemnified Party”) of written notice of any investigation, claim, proceeding or other action in respect of which indemnification is being sought (each, a “Claim”), the Indemnified Party promptly shall notify the Person against whom indemnification pursuant to this Section 6.2.5 is being sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the commencement thereof; but the omission to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve it from any liability that it otherwise may have to the Indemnified Party, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced and forfeits substantive rights and defenses by reason of such failure.  In connection with any Claim as to which both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party are parties, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof.  Notwithstanding the assumption of the defense of any Claim by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate legal counsel and to participate in the defense of such Claim, and the Indemnifying Party shall bear the reasonable fees, out of pocket costs and expenses of such separate legal counsel to the Indemnified Party if (and only if): (i) the Indemnifying Party shall have agreed to pay such fees, costs and expenses, (ii) the Indemnified Party shall reasonably have concluded that representation of the Indemnified Party by the Indemnifying Party by the same legal counsel would not be appropriate due to actual or, as reasonably determined by legal counsel to the Indemnified Party, potentially differing interests between such parties in the conduct of the defense of such Claim, or if there may be legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are in addition to or disparate from those available to the Indemnifying Party, or (iii) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed to employ legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party within a reasonable period of time after notice of the commencement of such Claim.  If the Indemnified Party employs separate legal counsel in circumstances other than as described in the preceding sentence, the fees, costs and expenses of such legal counsel shall be borne exclusively by the Indemnified Party.  Except as provided above, the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any Claim in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one firm of counsel for the Indemnified Party (together with appropriate local counsel).  The Indemnified Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld), settle or compromise any Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment that does not include an unconditional release of the Indemnifying Party from all liabilities with respect to such Claim or judgment or contain any admission of wrongdoing.








19







(d)            Contribution.  If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6.2.5 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an Indemnified Party in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party in connection with the statements or omissions or alleged statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.  The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such Indemnifying Party or by such Indemnified Party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.  The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6.2.5(d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Purchasers or any underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 6.2.5(d).  The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim.  No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.







(e)            Limitation on Purchasers’ and Underwriters’ Obligations.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 6.2.5, in no event shall (i) any Purchaser have any liability under this Section 6.2.5 for any amounts in excess of the dollar amount of the proceeds actually received by such Purchaser from the sale of Registrable Securities (after deducting any fees, discounts and commissions applicable thereto) pursuant to any Registration Statement under which such Registrable Securities are registered under the Securities Act and (ii) any underwriter be required to undertake liability to any Person hereunder for any amounts in excess of the aggregate discount, commission or other compensation payable to such underwriter with respect to the Registrable Securities underwritten by it and distributed pursuant to the Registration Statement.








20







(f)            Other Liabilities.  The obligations of the Company under this Section 6.2.5 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have to any Indemnified Person and the obligations of any Indemnified Person under this Section 6.2.5 shall be in addition to any liability which such Indemnified Person may otherwise have to the Company.  The remedies provided in this Section 6.2.5 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to an indemnified party at law or in equity.







6.2.6            Rule 144.  With a view to making available to the Purchasers the benefits of Rule 144, the Company agrees to use its best efforts to:







(a)            comply with the provisions of paragraph (c)(1) of Rule 144; and







(b)            file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required to be filed by the Company pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) under the 1934 Act; and, if at any time it is not required to file such reports but in the past had been required to or did file such reports, it will, upon the request of any Purchasers, make available other information as required by, and so long as necessary to permit sales of, its Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144.







6.2.7            Common Stock Issued Upon Stock Split, etc.  The provisions of this Section 6.2 shall apply to any shares of Common Stock or any other securities issued as a dividend or distribution in respect of the Shares or the Warrant Shares.







6.2.8            Termination of Registration Rights.  The registration rights granted in this Section 6.2 shall terminate with respect to a Security upon the date such Security is first eligible to be resold pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act.

GENERAL EMPLOYMENT ENTERPRISES, INC.


An Illinois Corporation














 


Common Stock Purchase Warrant (the “Warrant”)







General Employment Enterprises, Inc., an Illinois corporation (the “Company”), for value received, hereby certifies that Aracle SPF I, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Initial Holder”), or its registered assigns (the Initial Holder or such registered assigns shall be referred to as the “Holder”), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company at any time on or after the Exercise Period and on or before the Expiration Date (as hereinafter defined), in whole or in part, 1,187,500  shares (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant) of the Company’s common stock, no par value (“Common Stock”), at an Exercise Price equal to $0.25 per share, subject to adjustments pursuant to Section 2 herein (the “Exercise Price”).  The shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant are sometimes hereinafter referred to as the “Warrant Stock”.  “Exercise Period” means any date commencing the six (6) months subsequent to the issuance date hereof (i.e. September 30, 2014) and prior to the Expiration Date on which the Holder elects by written notice to the Company for this Warrant to become exercisable.







This Warrant is issued pursuant to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of even date herewith, by and between the Company  and Initial Holder,  pursuant to which Initial Holder acquired certain Units comprised of Common Stock and Warrants (the “Purchase Agreement”).  Capitalized terms not otherwise used herein shall be as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement between the Company and the original purchaser of this Warrant, dated as of even date herewith.







Exercise.







Manner of Exercise.  This Warrant may be exercised by the Holder, in whole or in part, by surrendering this Warrant, with the purchase/exercise form appended hereto as Exhibit A duly executed by such Holder or by such Holder’s duly authorized attorney, at the principal office of the Company, or at such other office or agency as the Company may designate in writing, accompanied by payment in full of the Exercise Price payable in respect of the number of shares of Warrant Stock purchased upon such exercise.  The Exercise Price may be paid by cash, check, or wire transfer in immediately available funds, or where a registration statement is in effect and otherwise permitted by law and provided that a public market for the Common Stock exists, through a “same day sale” commitment from the Holder and a broker-dealer that is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority of Securities Dealers (a “FINRA Dealer”), whereby the Holder irrevocably elects to exercise this Warrant and to sell a portion of the Warrant Stock so purchased to pay for the Exercise Price directly to the Company. Alternatively, the Warrant Exercise Price may be paid as provided via “Cashless Exercise” as provided in Section 1(b).













Cashless Exercise.  The Holder may, in its sole discretion, exercise this Warrant at any time during the Exercise Period 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 as set forth in Section 1(a) above, elect instead to receive upon such exercise the “Net Number” of shares of the Company’s Common Stock determined according to the following formula (a “Cashless Exercise”):


 


	
Net Number   =     

	
(A x B) - (A x C)


	
 

	
B





 


For purposes of the foregoing formula:







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







B= the closing sale price of the Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date of the Exercise Notice.







C= the Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Warrant Stock at the time of such exercise.







Effective Time of Exercise.  Each exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the day on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered to the Company as provided in Section 1(a) or 1(b) above.  At such time, the person or persons in whose name or names any certificates for Warrant Stock shall be issuable upon such exercise as provided in Section 1(c) below shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of the Warrant Stock represented by such certificates.


 


Delivery to Holder.  As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant, in whole or in part, and in any event within seven (7) calendar days thereafter, the Company at its expense will cause to be issued in the name of, and delivered to, the Holder, or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct:


 


a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Warrant Stock to which such Holder shall be entitled, and


 


in case such exercise is in part only, a new warrant or warrants (dated the date hereof) of like tenor, calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of shares of Warrant Stock equal (without giving effect to any adjustment therein) to the number of such shares called for on the face of this Warrant minus the number of such shares purchased by the Holder upon such exercise as provided in Section 1(a) above.







In the event the Company fails to deliver a certificate for the number of shares of Warrant Stock to which such Holder is entitled within seven (7) calendar days after the exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall be entitled to a penalty equaling one percent (1%) of the number of Warrant Stock issuable in accordance with the exercise of the Warrant for each fifteen (15) day period commencing after such seven (7) calendar day period.  It is expressly understood that the foregoing penalty provision is in addition to, and not to the exclusion of, any and all remedies available to the Holder as set forth herein and in the Purchase Agreement.







Callable Provision.  The Warrants are not callable absent consent of both parties.













Adjustments.







Stock Splits and Dividends.  If the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock shall be subdivided into a greater number of shares or a dividend in common stock shall be paid in respect of common stock, then the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision or at the record date of such dividend shall simultaneously with the effectiveness of such subdivision or immediately after the record date of such dividend be proportionately reduced.  If the outstanding shares of common stock shall be combined into a smaller number of shares, then the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall, simultaneously with the effectiveness of such combination, be proportionately increased.  When any adjustment is required to be made in the Exercise Price, the number of shares of Warrant Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be changed to the number determined by dividing (i) an amount equal to the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment, by (ii) the Exercise Price in effect immediately after such adjustment.







Reclassification, Etc.  In case of any merger, reclassification or change of the outstanding securities of the Company or of any reorganization of the Company (or any other corporation the stock or securities of which are at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant), a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any similar corporate reorganization or transaction on or after the date hereof, then and in each such case the holder of this Warrant, upon the exercise hereof at any time after the consummation of such reclassification, change, reorganization, merger or conveyance, shall be entitled to receive, in lieu of the stock or other securities and property receivable upon the exercise hereof prior to such consummation, the stock or other securities or property to which such holder would have been entitled upon such consummation if such holder had exercised this Warrant immediately prior thereto, all subject to further adjustment as provided in Section 2(a); and in each such case, the terms of this Section 2 shall be applicable to the shares of stock or other securities properly receivable after such consummation.







 (c)          Adjustment Certificate.  When any adjustment is required to be made in the Warrant Stock or the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 2, the Company shall promptly mail to the Holder a certificate setting forth (i) a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment, (ii) the Exercise Price after such adjustment and (iii) the kind and amount of stock or other securities or property into which this Warrant shall be exercisable after such adjustment.







Transfers.







Unregistered Security.  Each holder of this Warrant acknowledges that this Warrant and the Warrant Stock have not been registered under the Securities Act, and agrees not to sell, pledge, distribute, offer for sale, transfer or otherwise dispose of this Warrant or any Warrant Stock issued upon its exercise in the absence of (i) an effective registration statement under the Act as to this Warrant or such Warrant Stock and registration or qualification of this Warrant or such Warrant Stock under any applicable U.S. federal or state securities law then in effect or (ii) an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such registration or qualification is not required.  Each certificate or other instrument for Warrant Stock issued upon the exercise of this Warrant shall bear a legend substantially to the foregoing effect.







Transferability.  Subject to the provisions of Section 3(a) hereof, this Warrant and all rights hereunder (including any registration rights granted to the Holder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement) are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of the Warrant with a properly executed assignment (in the form of Exhibit B hereto) at the principal office of the Company. The Company shall, upon receipt of a transfer notice and appropriate documentation, register any Transfer on the Company’s Warrant Register; provided, however, that the Company may require, as a condition to such Transfer, an opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Company that said Transfer does not require registration pursuant one or more exemptions provided under the Securities Act. 


 


Warrant Register.  The Company will maintain a register containing the names and addresses of the Holders of this Warrant.  Until any transfer of this Warrant is made in the warrant register, the Company may treat the Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes; provided, however, that if this Warrant is properly assigned in blank, the Company may (but shall not be required to) treat the bearer hereof as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  Any Holder may change such Holder’s address as shown on the warrant register by written notice to the Company requesting such change.













No Impairment.  The Company will not, by amendment of its charter or through reorganization, consolidation, merger, dissolution, sale of assets or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will (subject to Section 13 below) 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 of this Warrant against impairment.


 


Termination.  This Warrant (and the right to purchase securities upon exercise hereof) shall terminate four (4) years from the date of issuance of this Warrant (the “Expiration Date”).


 


Notices of Certain Transactions.  In case:


 


the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock (or other stock or securities at the time deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant) for the purpose of entitling or enabling them to receive any dividend or other distribution, or to receive any right to subscribe for or purchase any shares of stock of any class or any other securities, or to receive any other right, to subscribe for or purchase any shares of stock of any class or any other securities, or to receive any other right, or







of any reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, or







of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company ((a), (b) and (c) of this Section 6 being referred to herein as a “Liquidation Event”),







then, and in each such case, the Company will mail or cause to be mailed to the Holder of this Warrant 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 effective date on which such reclassification, 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 other stock or securities at the time deliverable upon such reclassification, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up) are to be determined.  Such notice shall be mailed at least ten (10) days prior to the record date or effective date for the event specified in such notice.  Failure to so notify a holder shall not invalidate any such action.







Reservation of Stock.  The Company will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued stock, solely for the issuance and delivery upon the exercise of this Warrant and other similar Warrants, such number of its duly authorized shares of Common Stock as from time to time shall be issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant and other similar Warrants. All of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant and other similar Warrants, when issued and delivered in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof, will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, subject to no lien or other encumbrance other than restrictions on transfer arising under applicable securities laws and restrictions imposed by Section 3 hereof.


 


Exchange of Warrants.  Upon the surrender by the Holder of any Warrant or Warrants, properly endorsed, to the Company at the principal office of the Company, the Company will, subject to the provisions of Section 3 hereof, issue and deliver to or upon the order of such Holder, at the Company’s expense, a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor, in the name of such Holder or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct, calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock called for on the face or faces of the Warrant or Warrants so surrendered.


 


Replacement of Warrants.  Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and (in the case of loss, theft or destruction) upon delivery of an indemnity agreement (with surety if reasonably required) in an amount reasonably satisfactory to the Company, or (in the case of mutilation) upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will issue, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.













Notices.  Any notice required or permitted by this Warrant shall be in writing and shall be deemed sufficient upon receipt, when delivered personally or by courier, or overnight delivery service, addressed (a) if to the Holder, to the address of the Holder most recently furnished in writing to the Company and (b) if to the Company, to the address set forth in the Company’s periodic report most recently filed with the SEC, attn.: Chief Executive Officer.


 


No Rights as Stockholder.  Until the exercise of this Warrant, the Holder of this Warrant shall not have or exercise any rights by virtue hereof as a stockholder of the Company.


 


Representations of Holder.  The Holder hereby represents and acknowledges to the Company that:


 


It understands that this Warrant and the Warrant Stock will be “restricted securities” as such term is used in the rules and regulations under the Securities Act and that such securities have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act or any state securities law, and that such securities must be held indefinitely unless registration is effected or transfer can be made pursuant to appropriate exemptions;







the Holder has read, and fully understands, the terms of this Warrant set forth on its face and the attachments hereto, including the restrictions on transfer contained herein;







the Holder is purchasing for investment for its own account and not with a view to or for sale in connection with any distribution of this Warrant and the Warrant Stock and it has no intention of selling such securities in a public distribution in violation of the federal securities laws or any applicable state securities laws; provided that nothing contained herein will prevent the Holder from transferring such securities in compliance with the terms of this Warrant and the applicable federal and state securities laws; and







the Company may affix the following legend (in addition to any other legend(s), if any, required by applicable state corporate and/or securities laws) to certificates for shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant:







“These securities have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  They may not be sold, offered for sale, pledged or hypothecated in the absence of a registration statement in effect with respect to the securities under such Act or an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company that such registration is not required or unless sold pursuant to Rule 144 of such Act.”







No Fractional Shares.  No fractional shares will be issued in connection with any exercise hereunder.  In lieu of any fractional shares which would otherwise be issuable, the Company shall pay cash equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the fair market value of one such share on the date of exercise, as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors.







Amendment or Waiver.  Any term of this Warrant may be amended or waived upon written consent of the Company and the holder of this Warrant.


 


15.                Headings.  The headings in this Warrant are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning of any provision of this Warrant.


 


Governing Law.  This Warrant shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law.


 


No Impairment.  The Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or through reorganization, consolidation, merger, dissolution, sale of assets 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 of this Warrant against impairment.
