 WARRANT
FOR THE PURCHASE OF 
 SHARES OF COMMON STOCK OF 
 ACTION PRODUCTS INTERNATIONAL, INC. 
 (A Florida corporation) 
  
 FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Action Products International, Inc.
(“Company”), hereby certifies that Elite Financial Communications Group, LLC (“Holder”), or his, her or its Permitted Transferees with its principal executive offices located at 605 Crescent Executive Court, Suite 124, Lake Mary,
Florida 32746 is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company, at any time or from time to time during the period commencing on the date hereof and expiring on the earlier of (i) January 20, 2007 or (ii) the date two
(2) years from the date the Securities and Exchange Commission declares effective a registration statement registering the offer and sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares (as defined herein) under the Securities Act (as defined herein) Fifty
Thousand (50,000) shares of Common Stock, par value $.001 per share, of the Company (“Common Stock”), at a purchase price equal to Four Dollars ($4.00) per share (the “Warrant”). The number of shares of Common Stock purchasable
upon exercise of this Warrant, and the purchase price per share, each as adjusted from time to time pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant, are hereinafter referred to as the “Warrant Shares” and the “Exercise Price,”
respectively. 
  
 1. EXERCISE 
  
 (a) Procedure for Exercise. This Warrant may be
exercised by the Holder, in whole or in part, by the surrender of this Warrant (with the Notice of Exercise form attached hereto duly executed by such Holder) at the principal office of the Company, or at such other office or agency as the Company
may designate, accompanied by payment to the Company of the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares to be purchased (“Aggregate Purchase Price”) (i) in cash, (ii) by certified check, (iii) by wire transfer, or (iv) by a
combination of (i), (ii) and (iii). 
  
 (b)
Date 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, together with the Notice of Exercise form attached hereto duly executed by such
Holder or Permitted Transferee shall have been surrendered to the Company. At such time, the person or persons in whose name or names any certificates for Warrant Shares shall be issuable upon such exercise shall be deemed to have become the holder
or holders of record of the Warrant Shares represented by such certificates. 
  
 (c) Issuance of Certificate. As soon as practicable after the exercise of the purchase right represented by this Warrant, and in any event within ten (10) business days thereafter, the Company at its expense


  









 
will use its best efforts to cause to be issued in the name of, and delivered to, the Holder, or, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, to such other
individual or entity as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct (i) a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Warrant Shares to which such Holder shall be entitled upon such exercise
plus, in lieu of any fractional share to which such Holder would otherwise be entitled, an additional share as determined pursuant to Section 3 hereof, and (ii) in case such exercise is in part only, a new Warrant or Warrants (dated the date hereof)
of like tenor, stating on the face or faces thereof the number of shares currently stated 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. The Company covenants
and agrees that it will pay when due any and all state and federal issue taxes which may be payable in respect of the issuance of this Warrant or the issuance of any Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant. 
  
 2. ADJUSTMENTS. 
  
 (a) Split, Subdivision or Combination of Shares. If
the outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired shall be subdivided or split into a greater number of shares, or a dividend in Common Stock shall be paid in respect of Common
Stock, 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 split or immediately after the record date of such dividend (as the
case may be), shall be proportionately decreased. If the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be combined or reverse-split into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination or reverse split
shall, simultaneously with the effectiveness of such combination or reverse split, be proportionately increased. When any adjustment is required to be made in the Exercise Price, the number of Warrant Shares 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. 
  
 (b) Reclassification Reorganization, Consolidation or Merger. In the case of any reclassification of the Common Stock (other than a
change in par value or a subdivision or combination as provided for in Section 2(a) above), or any reorganization, consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a merger or reorganization with respect to which
the Company is the continuing corporation and which does not result in any reclassification of the Common Stock), or a transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or the payment of a liquidating distribution then, as part of
any such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or liquidating distribution, lawful provision shall be made so that the Holder of this Warrant shall have the right thereafter to receive upon the exercise hereof, the kind and
amount of shares of stock or other securities or property which such Holder would have been entitled to receive if, immediately prior to any such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or liquidating distribution, as the case
may be, such Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock which were then purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant. In any such case, appropriate adjustment (as reasonably determined by the Board of Directors of the Company) shall be
made in the application of the provisions set forth herein with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Holder of this Warrant such that the provisions set forth in this Section 2 (including provisions with respect to the Exercise
Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as is reasonably practicable, in relation to any shares of stock or other securities or property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant. 
  
 (c) No Limitations on the Company. This Warrant shall
not affect or limit in any way the right or power of the Company to make adjustments, reclassifications, reorganizations or changes of its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve or liquidate, or to sell or transfer all or
any part of its business or assets. Nothing herein shall be construed as creating any limitations upon the right and authority of the Board of Directors of the Company to adopt such incentive compensation arrangements (which arrangements may be
applicable either generally to a class or classes of individuals or specifically to a particular individual or 

  

 2 








 
individuals) as the Board of Directors in its discretion determines desirable, including, without limitation, the granting of stock options or stock
appreciation rights. 
  
 (d) No
Impairment. The Company will not, by amendment of 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 to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Section 2 and in the taking of all such actions
as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect against impairment of the rights of the Holder of this Warrant to adjustments in the Exercise Price. 
  
 3. FRACTIONAL SHARES. The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of shares of Common Stock upon exercise. If any fractions of a share
would, but for this Section 3, be issuable upon any exercise, in lieu of such fractional share the Company shall round up to the nearest whole number. 
  
 4. LIMITATION ON SALES. Each holder of this Warrant acknowledges that this Warrant and the Warrant Shares, as of the date of original issuance of
this Warrant, have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and agrees not to sell, pledge, distribute, offer for sale, transfer or otherwise dispose of this Warrant or any Warrant Shares
issued upon its exercise in the absence of (a) an effective registration statement under the Securities Act as to this Warrant or such Warrant Shares or (b) an opinion of counsel, reasonably acceptable to the Company, that such registration and
qualification are not required. The Warrant Shares issued upon exercise thereof shall be imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form: 
  
 “THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR
APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAW, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR RECEIPT BY THE COMPANY OF AN OPINION OF COUNSEL (WHICH COUNSEL SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY) IN THE FORM,
SUBSTANCE AND SCOPE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY STATING THAT THE PROPOSED SALE, PLEDGE OR TRANSFER IS EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT AND ALL APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.” 
  
 The Holder hereof and the Company agree to execute such other documents and instruments as
the Company reasonably deems necessary to effect the compliance of the issuance of this Warrant and any shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise hereof with applicable federal and state securities laws. 
  
 The Company covenants and agrees that (i) all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon
exercise of the Warrant, upon issuance, shall be fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof; (ii) the Company will not close its books against the exercise of the Warrant or the
transfer of the Common Stock issued or issuable upon exercise of the Warrant in any manner which would interfere with the timely exercise of the Warrant; and (iii) the Company will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized Common
Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the exercise of the Warrant, the full number of shares of Common Stock which would be deliverable upon the exercise of the Warrant. 
  
 5. TRANSFER OF WARRANT. This Warrant may not be transferred, in whole or in part, whether by operation
of law or otherwise, to any person or business entity, without the prior written consent of the Company, and any assignment to the contrary shall be null and void and of no force and effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to the
provisions of Section 4, the Holder may transfer the Warrant or a portion thereof to one or more trusts established for the exclusive benefit of such Holder and/or one or more of the Holder’s spouse, children, grandchildren, parents, siblings,
nieces or nephews (collectively, “Permitted Transferees”), or at 

  

 3 








 
death to the Holder’s estate, to any of the Holder’s Permitted Transferees, or to one or more trusts all of the beneficiaries of which are one or
more of the Holder’s Permitted Transferees; provided, however, that any such transferee shall hold the transferred Warrant subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Any transfer permitted by the immediately preceding sentence shall
be made by presentation of the Warrant to the Company with written instructions for such transfer, including evidence that the transfer is permitted hereunder. Upon such presentation for transfer, the Company shall promptly execute and deliver a new
Warrant or Warrants in the form hereof in the name of the assignee or assignees and in the denominations specified in such instructions. The Company shall pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with the preparation, issuance and delivery of
Warrants as permitted under this Section. 
  
 6.
GENERAL RESTRICTIONS. The Company shall not be required to sell or issue any Warrant Shares under this Warrant if the sale or issuance of such Warrant Shares would constitute a violation by the individual exercising the Warrant or by the
Company of any provision of any law or regulation of any governmental authority, including without limitation any federal or state securities laws or regulations. If at any time the Company shall determine, in its discretion, that the listing,
registration, or qualification of any Warrant Shares subject to the Warrant upon any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any government regulatory body, is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or
in connection with, the issuance or purchase of Warrant Shares hereunder, the Warrant may not be exercised in whole or in part unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent, or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any
conditions not acceptable to the Company, and any delay caused thereby shall in no way affect the date of termination of the Warrant. Specifically, in connection with the Securities Act, unless a registration statement under the Securities Act is in
effect with respect to the Warrant Shares covered by the Warrant, the Company shall not be required to sell or issue such Warrant Shares unless the Company has received evidence satisfactory to it that the holder of the Warrant may acquire such
Warrant Shares pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act. Any determination in this connection by the Company shall be final, binding, and conclusive. Except as provided herein, the Company may, but shall in no event be
obligated to, register any securities covered hereby pursuant to the Securities Act. The Company shall not be obligated to take any affirmative action in order to cause the exercise of the Warrant or the issuance of Warrant Shares pursuant thereto
to comply with any law or regulation of any governmental authority. As to any jurisdiction that expressly imposes the requirement that the Warrant shall not be exercisable unless and until the Warrant Shares covered by the Warrant are registered or
are subject to an available exemption from registration, the exercise of the Warrant (under circumstances in which the laws of such jurisdiction apply) shall be deemed conditioned upon the effectiveness of such registration or the availability of
such an exemption. The Warrant shall not be exercisable unless the Holder shall have received all required regulatory approvals with respect to ownership of the Warrant Shares to be issued upon such exercise. 
  
 7. 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. 
  
 8. TRANSFERS. The Company will maintain a register containing the names and addresses of the Holders of this Warrant.
Any Holder may change its, his or her address as shown on the warrant register by written notice to the Company requesting such change. 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 and when this Warrant is properly assigned in blank, the Company may (but shall not be obligated to) treat the bearer hereof as the absolute owner hereof for all
purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. 
  

 4 








 9. PAYMENT OF TAXES. The Holder agrees to promptly pay in cash to the Company, upon demand,
any taxes that the Company (or any affiliate of the Company) may be required to withhold or collect in connection with any exercise of the Warrant. 
  
 10. CERTAIN NOTICES 
  
 (a) Notice of Adjustment. Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price, the Company shall forthwith give written notice thereto to the
Holder of this Warrant describing the event requiring the adjustment, stating the adjusted Exercise Price and the adjusted number of shares purchasable upon the exercise hereof resulting from such event, and setting forth in reasonable detail the
method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. 
  
 (b) Notices of Record Date. In case: (i) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock (or other stock or securities at the time 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 any class or any other securities, or to receive any other right, or (ii) of any capital
reorganization of the Company, any reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the surviving entity),
or any transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or (iii) of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company, then, and in each such case, the Company will mail or cause to be mailed to the
Holder 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 reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, 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 the exercise of this Warrant) shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock (or such other stock or securities) for securities or other property deliverable upon such
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up. Such notice shall be mailed at least ten (10) days prior to the notice shall not affect the legality or validity of any such action.

  
 (c) Form and Delivery Requirements.
All notices, demands, requests, or other communications which may be or are required to be given, served, or sent by any party to any other party pursuant to this Warrant (“Notices”) shall be in writing and shall be provided or given in

 11.
REGISTRATION RIGHTS. 
  
 11.1 Piggyback Registration.

  
 (a) Right to Piggyback. If (i) the
Company proposes to register any of its Common Stock under the Securities Act except for offerings pursuant to registration statements relating to employee benefit plans or with respect to corporate reorganization or other transactions under Rule
145 of the Securities Act or otherwise registered on Form S-4 under the Securities Act (a “Qualified Public Offering”) and (ii) the registration form to be used may be used for the registration of the Holder Registrable Securities (a
“Piggyback Registration”), the Company will at least thirty (30) days prior to a Qualified Public Offering give written notice to the Holder of its intention to effect such a public offering. If the Holder desires to dispose of any of the
Holder Registrable Securities (as defined below) in the public offering, it shall provide written notice thereof to the Company within fifteen (15) days after the receipt of any such notice, specifying the Holder Registrable Securities intended to
be disposed of by the Holder. Subject to Section 11.1(b), the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of all Holder Registrable Securities which the Company has been so requested to
register by the Holder on the same terms and conditions as the securities otherwise being sold in such registration, to the extent requisite to permit the disposition of the Holder Registrable Securities requested to be so registered. Nothing in
this Section 11.1 shall prevent the Company from abandoning, at any time, an offering under which the Holder has requested a Piggyback Registration. 
  
 (b) Priority in Piggyback Registrations. When a registration pursuant to this Section 11.1 involves an underwritten offering of the
securities so being registered, whether or not for sale for the account of the Company, to be distributed by or through one or more underwriters, if the managing underwriter of such underwritten offering informs the Company in writing of its belief
that the number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in (or during the time of) such offering without adversely affecting the price to be received thereon, then the Company will include in
such registration, to the extent of the number which the Company is so advised can be sold in (or during the time of) such offering, 

  

 6 








 
first, all securities proposed by the Company to be sold for its own account or all securities (other than Holder Registrable Securities) proposed by the
Company to be sold for the account of the holders thereof who had requested such registration, as the case may be; second, other registrable securities with priority over the Registrable Securities (based on the Company’s agreements with the
holders thereof); third, such Holder Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration so proposed to be sold and so requested to be included; and fourth, other securities requested to be included in such registration, in such
proportion as the Company may determine (based upon its agreements with the holders thereof). The Company agrees that any such determination is to be made solely by the managing underwriter and the Company agrees that it will act in good faith in
seeking to have sold in the offering all of the shares requested to be sold. 
  
 11.2 Registration Procedures. If, whenever and to the extent that the Company is required to use commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration of any Holder Registrable Securities under the
Securities Act as provided in Section 11.1, the Company will as expeditiously as possible: 
  
 (i) prepare and file with the Commission the requisite registration statement to effect such registration and thereafter use commercially
reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become and remain effective for a period of two (2) years or, if earlier, until all of such Holder Registrable Securities have been disposed of, provided that the Company may discontinue any
registration of its securities at any time prior to the effective date of the registration statement relating thereto; 
  
 (ii) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in
connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective for the period set forth in Section 11.3(i) above; 
  
 (iii) furnish to Holder such number of conformed copies of such registration statement and of each such amendment and supplement thereto
(in each case including all exhibits), such number of copies of the prospectus contained in such registration statement (including each preliminary prospectus and any summary prospectus) and any other prospectus filed under Rule 424 under the
Securities Act, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as Holder may reasonably request in order to dispose of the Holder Registrable Securities; 
  
 (iv) use commercially reasonable efforts to register or
qualify all Holder Registrable Securities and other securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or blue sky laws of such United States jurisdictions as Holder shall reasonably request, to keep such registration or
qualification in effect for so long as such registration statement remains in effect, except that the Company shall not for any such purpose (a) be required to qualify generally to do business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction, (b) to
subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction or (c) to consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction; 
  
 (v) notify Holder, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, upon discovery
that, or upon the happening of any event as a result of which, the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances under which they were made; and 
  
 (vi) use its commercially reasonable efforts to furnish, on the date that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters
for sale, if such securities are being sold through underwriters, (i) an opinion, dated as of such date, of the counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, in form and substance as is customarily given to underwriters in
an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and (ii) a letter dated as of such date, from the independent certified public 

  

 7 








 
accountants of the Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten
public offering addressed to the underwriters. 
  
 11.3
Holdback Agreements. If, in connection with an underwritten public offering of shares of Common Stock of the Company registered pursuant to the Securities Act, the managing underwriter for such registration shall so request, the Holder shall not
sell, make any short sale of, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any Holder Registrable Securities (other than those Holder Registrable Securities included in such registration) without the prior written consent of the
Company for a period designated by the Company in writing to the Holder, which period shall begin not more than thirty (30) days prior to the date the Company has fixed plans to file the registration statement pursuant to which such public offering
shall be made and shall not last more than one hundred eighty (180) days (or such other period as the officers and directors of the Company shall determine) after the effective date of such registration statement while this Warrant remains
outstanding and unexpired. 
  
 11.4 Copies of Registration
Statements. The Company shall promptly provide the Holder with copies of all registration statements the Company files with the Commission under the Securities Act during the term of this Warrant Agreement. 
  
 11.5 Indemnification. 
  
 (a) Indemnification by the Company. In the event of
any registration of any Holder Registrable Securities under the Securities Act, to the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless Holder, its officers and directors, each underwriter for Holder, and each other Person, if
any, who controls any of the foregoing Persons within the meaning of the Securities Act against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several (“Losses”), to which the Holder or any such director or officer or underwriter or
controlling Person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such Losses (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of any material fact contained in any registration statement under which such securities were registered under the Securities Act, (ii) any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained therein, or any
amendment or supplement thereto or any document incident to registration or qualification of any Holder Registrable Securities, (iii) the 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, with respect to any prospectus, necessary to make the statements therein in light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading, or (iv) any violation by the Company of the Securities
Act or state securities or blue sky laws applicable to the Company and relating to action or inaction required of the Company in connection with such registration or qualification under such state securities or blue sky laws (clauses (i) – (iv)
above referred to hereafter as, a “Violation”); provided (i) that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such Losses (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) or expense arises out of or is based upon an
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such registration statement, any such preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus, amendment or supplement in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information furnished to the Company for use in connection with such registration; (ii) that the Company shall not be liable to any Person who participates as an underwriter in the offering or sale of Holder Registrable Securities or any
other Person, if any, who controls such underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act, in any such case to the extent that any such Losses (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) or expense arises out of such Person’s failure to
send or give a copy of the final prospectus, as the same may be then supplemented or amended, to the Person asserting a Violation at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of Holder Registrable Securities to such Person if such Violation
was corrected in such final prospectus; and (iii) that the Company shall not be liable for any amounts paid in settlement of any Losses or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company. Such indemnity shall remain in full
force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such seller 

  

 8 








 
or any such director, officer, underwriter or controlling Person and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such seller. 
  
 (b) Indemnification by Holder. In the event of any
registration of the Holder Registrable Securities under the Securities Act, to the extent permitted by law, the Holder will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each director of the Company, each officer of the Company and each other Person, if
any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, any underwriter and any other Person selling securities under such registration statement or any of such other Person’s partners, directors or officers or any Person who
controls such Person, against any Losses, to which the Company or any such director, officer, controlling Person, underwriter, or such director, officer or controlling Person of such Person may become subject under the Securities Act or Exchange Act
or other federal or state law, if such Losses arise out of or relate to a Violation that arose out of or related to the Company’s reliance upon written information furnished to the Company about the Holder for use in the preparation of such
registration. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or any such director, officer or controlling Person and shall survive the transfer of such securities by the
Holder. 
  
 (c) Notices of Claims, Etc.
Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding involving a claim referred to in the preceding subdivisions of this Section 11.5, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is
to be made against an indemnifying party, give written notice to the latter of the commencement of such action, provided that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its
obligations under the preceding subdivisions of this Section 11.5, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. In case any such action is brought against an indemnified party, unless in
such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist in respect of such claim, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and to assume the defense
thereof, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified to the extent that it may wish, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its
election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld) or for any legal or other expenses
subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter
into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. 
  
 (d) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for
in this Agreement shall for any reason be unavailable to an indemnified party under Section 11.5(a) or 11.5(b) hereof in respect of any Losses (or any action or proceeding in respect thereof), then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of
indemnifying such party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such Losses (or action or proceeding in respect thereof), in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect (i) the relative benefits
received by the Company on the one hand and the Holder included in the offering on the other hand, from the offering of the Holder Registrable Securities, and (ii) the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the holders of the Holder
Registrable Securities included in the offering on the other, with respect to the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses (or action or proceeding in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The
relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Holder on the other with respect to such offering shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the sum of the total Exercise Price paid to the Company in respect of the securities
sold pursuant to the offering plus the total net proceeds from the offering of the securities (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bears to the amount by which the total net proceeds from the offering of the securities (before
deducting expenses) received by the Holder with respect to such offering exceeds the Exercise Price paid to the Company in respect of the Holder Registrable Securities. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether the untrue or alleged untrue 

  

 9 








 
statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Holder, the
intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Holder agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this
Section 11.5 were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the
loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, referred to in this Section 11.5 shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this Section 11.5, any legal or other 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) Survival
of Indemnity Obligations. The obligations of the Company and the Holder under this Section 11.5 shall survive completion of any offering of Holder Registrable Securities in a registration statement and the termination of this Agreement. No
indemnifying party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the
giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. 
  
 (f) Limitation on Preliminary Prospectus Liability. The foregoing indemnity agreements of the Company and the Holder are subject to
the condition that, insofar as they relate to any Violation made in a preliminary prospectus but eliminated or remedied in the amended prospectus on file with the Commission at the time the registration statement in question becomes effective or the
amended prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Commission Rule 424(b) (the “Final Prospectus”), such indemnity agreement shall not inure to the benefit of any Person if a copy of the Final Prospectus was furnished to the
indemnified party and was not furnished to the Person asserting the Losses at or prior to the time such action is required by the Securities Act. 
  
 11.6 No Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights hereunder to cause the Company to register the Holder Registrable Securities may not be
assigned by Holder except in connection with an assignment of the Warrant made in accordance with the terms of this Warrant Agreement. 
  
 11.7 Registration Expenses. 
  
 (a) Company Expenses. All expenses incident to the Company’s performance of or compliance with this Section 11, and fees and
disbursements of counsel for the Company and its independent certified public accountants, including the expenses of any special audits or “cold comfort” letters required by or incident to such performance and compliance, and any fees and
disbursements of underwriters customarily paid by issuers or sellers of securities (but excluding discounts and commissions and transfer taxes, if any) and other Persons retained by the Company (all such expenses being herein called
“Registration Expenses”), will be borne by the Company, and in addition the Company will pay its internal expenses (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting
duties), and the expense of any annual audit or quarterly review, the expense of any liability insurance or other expenses for the preparation of financial statements or other data normally prepared by the Company in the ordinary course of its
business or which the Company would have incurred in any event. 
  
 (b) Holder Expenses. To the extent Registration Expenses are not required to be paid by the Company, Holder will pay those Registration Expenses allocable to the registration of the Warrant Shares so included,
including fees of counsel for Holder, and any Registration Expenses not so allocable will be borne by all 

  

 10 








 
sellers of securities included in such registration in proportion to the aggregate selling price of the securities to be so registered. 
  
 11.8 Further Covenants Relating to and Limitations on Registration Rights
of the Holder. 
  
 (a) It shall be a
condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to Section 11.1 that Holder (i) agrees to sell any Holder Registrable Securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Person or
Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

  
 (b) The Company may require Holder to furnish
to the Company such information regarding the Holder and the distribution of Warrant Shares as the Company may from time to time reasonably request in writing. The Company will give Holder copies of any registration statements and each prospectus
filed with the Commission, and each amendment thereof or supplement thereto. 
  
 (c) The Holder agrees by acquisition of such Holder Registrable Securities that upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 11.3(v), the Holder will
forthwith discontinue such Holder’s disposition of Holder Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement relating to such Holder Registrable Securities until receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus
contemplated by Section 11.3(v) and, if so directed by the Company, will deliver to the Company (at the Company’s expense) all copies, then in the Holder’s possession of the prospectus relating to such Holder Registrable Securities current
at the time of receipt of such notice. 
  
 (d)
The Holder shall have no right to obtain or seek an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any registration of the Company’s securities as the result of controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or implementation of
this Agreement.
