**Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.**

***Promissory Notes and Promissory Note Warrants***

On February 21, 2023, Gelesis Holdings, Inc. (the "Company"), Gelesis, Inc., a subsidiary of the Company (the "Co-Issuer" and together with the Company, the "Issuers"), Gelesis 2012, Inc. and Gelesis, LLC, subsidiaries of the Issuers (together the "Guarantors"' and collectively with the Issuers , the "Note Parties"), entered into a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement, dated as of February 21, 2023 (the "NPA"), by and among the Note Parties and PureTech Health LLC (the "Initial Investor") pursuant to which, for a cash purchase price of $5.0 million, (i) the Notes Issuers issued a short term convertible senior secured note of the Company in the aggregate principal amount of $5.0 million (the "Initial Note") to the Initial Investor and (ii) the Company issued to the Initial Investor warrants (the "Warrants") to purchase 23,688,047 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001, of the Company (the "Common Stock").

*General Terms of the Notes*

The Initial Note bears interest at a rate of 12% per annum, and matures on July 31, 2023, unless earlier converted or the maturity is extended as described below. The Initial Note is guaranteed by the Guarantors and contain customary anti-dilution adjustment provisions. Pursuant to certain security agreements, each dated February 21, 2023 (the "Security Agreements"), entered into by the Note Parties, as grantors, and the Initial Investor, in its capacity as secured party, the Note is secured by a first-priority lien on substantially all assets of the Company and the Guarantors, including without limitation, intellectual property, regulatory filings and product approvals, clearances and marks worldwide (other than the equity interests in, and assets held by, Gelesis S.r.l., a subsidiary of the Company) and a pledge of 100% of the Note Parties' equity in the Co-Issuer and the Guarantors.

The NPA contains certain covenants that restrict the ability of the Notes Issuers and their subsidiaries to, among other things, incur indebtedness, place liens on assets, transfer assets to subsidiaries of the Notes Issuers (other than other Note Parties), transfer ownership of, or exclusively license or grant exclusive rights to use, certain intellectual property, dispose of any tangible or intangible assets, properties or businesses, or engage in certain fundamental transactions, subject, in each case, to certain exceptions. The NPA also contains certain representations and warranties of the Notes Issuers, and certain customary events of default, including a failure by the Notes Issuers to pay amounts due thereunder.

*Additional Notes; Other Investor Notes*

Pursuant to the NPA, the Initial Investor has agreed, upon the request of the Notes Issuers, to purchase from the Notes Issuers an additional $5.0 million principal amount of short term convertible senior secured notes identical to the Initial Note (the "Additional Notes") if: (i) the Company and the Initial Investor, in its sole discretion, agree upon a satisfactory over-the-counter ("OTC") operating plan for the Company; (ii) the Company successfully completes and submits a usability study with respect to the OTC reclassification of its Plenity product; (iii) the Company receives the approval of its stockholders to certain transactions on or prior to July 31, 2023; and (iv) other commercially reasonable customary conditions are satisfied. In connection with the sale of the Additional Notes, the Company will issue to the Initial Investor additional Warrants to purchase a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the principal amount of Additional Notes sold multiplied by a factor of 1.7 and divided by the conversion price for such Additional Notes.

Pursuant to the NPA, the Notes Issuers may offer and sell additional short term convertible senior secured notes identical to the Initial Note to other investors in an aggregate principal amount of up to $40.0 million (the "Other Investor Notes") without the Initial Investor's consent at any time prior to March 31, 2024. The NPA provides that Other Investor Notes will rank *pari passu* with the Initial Note and the Additional Notes and otherwise have the same terms as the Initial Note, including the benefit of all liens granted with respect to the Initial Note.

Pursuant to the NPA, in the event that the Company sells Other Investor Notes, the Initial Investor will be entitled to participation rights to purchase additional Other Investor Notes that are incremental to the notes sold to other investors up to such aggregate principal amount as would allow the Initial Investor to maintain up to a 23% ownership percentage of the total original principal amount of the sum of the Initial Note, the Additional Notes and the Other Investor Notes. The Initial Note, the Additional Notes and the Other Investor Notes (including any such notes issued to the Initial Investor pursuant to its participation right) are hereafter referred to as the "Notes".

*Extension of Maturity*

The NPA provides that if the Company receives (i) the approval of its stockholders to certain transactions as described below on or prior to July 31, 2023, and (ii) proceeds from the sale of Other Investor Notes of at least $10.0 million prior to July 31, 2023, the maturity date of the Notes will be extended to March 31, 2024.

*Conversion of the Notes*

The NPA provides that the Notes are not convertible, and the Warrants are not exercisable, until the Company receives stockholder approval for the issuance of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes and the exercise of the Warrants (the "Stockholder Approval") in accordance with the terms thereof. The NPA provides that the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the Stockholder Approval at the first annual general meeting of its stockholders following the issuance of the Initial Note, which, pursuant to the terms of the NPA, must be held no later than July 31, 2023.

The NPA provides that following receipt of the Stockholder Approval (i) the Initial Note will be convertible at the option of the Initial Investor, in whole or in part, into a number of shares of Common Stock equal to (x) the outstanding principal amount of the Initial Note being converted plus accrued and unpaid interest divided by (y) a conversion price of $0.2744 per share of Common Stock, subject to adjustment and (ii) the Warrants will become exercisable for a purchase price of $0.2744 per share of Common Stock, subject to adjustment.

The NPA provides that the Notes will be convertible at the option of the Company, in whole but not in part ("Company Conversion"), (i) following receipt of the Stockholder Approval on or prior to July 31, 2023, (ii) subject to the receipt by the Company prior to July 31, 2023 of aggregate gross proceeds equal to or exceeding $30,000,000 from any financing, or series of related financings (including the sale of Other Investor Notes), (iii) if the average of the last reported sale price of the Common Stock for the immediately preceding five scheduled trading days is greater than or equal to 300% of the applicable conversion price, (iv) the Common Stock is then listed on the New York Stock Exchange and (v) a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), registering for resale the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes and the exercise of the Warrants is then effective. Such conversion of the Notes at the option of the Company will cause the conversion of all Notes then outstanding into a number of shares of Common Stock equal to (x) the outstanding principal amount of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest divided by (y) the applicable conversion price; provided, however, that with respect to Notes held by the Initial Investor, the conversion price for Company Conversion of the Initial Note and the Additional Notes will be the lower of the conversion price applicable in case of the Initial Investor's optional conversion of the Initial Note and the conversion price applicable in case of the Initial Investor's optional conversion of the Additional Notes.

*Optional Redemption*

The NPA provides that the Company may redeem the Notes at any time for cash, at its option, upon at least 20 days' notice at a redemption price equal to (i) 120% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date, if the redemption date is on or prior to June 30, 2023 and (ii) 130% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date, if the redemption date is after June 30, 2023. The Company may not redeem less than 100% of the Initial Note and the Additional Notes.

*Most Favored Investor Provision*

The NPA provides that during the terms of the Initial Note and the Additional Notes, any term of any indebtedness, debt or equity-linked debt security incurred or issued by the Note Parties after the issuance of the Initial Note that is more favorable than the terms of the Initial Note or the Additional Notes (including warrant coverage) will, at the option of the Initial Investor, automatically be incorporated into the Initial Note, the Additional Notes and/or the Warrants (including warrant coverage).

*Amendments and Waivers*

The NPA provides that amendments and waivers of any term of the NPA, the Notes, the guaranty of the Notes or the Security Agreement require the written consent of the Company and the holders of a majority in principal amount of Notes outstanding from time to time; provided that, that no such amendment, waiver or consent will, without consent of each holder of Notes directly and adversely affected thereby: (i) reduce the principal amount of or extend the maturity date of any Note; (ii) reduce the rate of interest or postpone the stated time for payment of principal or interest of any Note (except as otherwise permitted under the NPA); (iii) impair the right of any holder to receive payment on, or with respect to, any Note or impair the right to initiate suit for the enforcement of any delivery or payment on, or with respect to, any Note; (iv) change the ranking of any Note in any manner adverse to the rights of the affected holder; (v) grant any lien senior to the lien securing the Notes except as expressly provided for in the Security Agreement; (vi) release the guaranty; (vii) subordinate or release the lien securing the Notes except as expressly provided for in the Security Agreement; (viii) change the Conversion Price or any other terms of conversion of the Notes or the redemption price or any other terms of redemption of the Notes; or (ix) waive compliance with or modify the provisions governing amendments and waivers in a manner adverse to any investor.

Neither the Notes nor the Warrants have been or will be registered under the Securities Act, and are sold in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder, and on similar exemptions under applicable state laws. The NPA provides for registration rights with respect to all shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes and upon exercise of the Warrants pursuant to which the Company is required to file a shelf registration statement under the Securities Act to register such shares for resale.

The foregoing descriptions of the NPA, the Notes, the Warrants and the Security Agreements do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the full text of such agreements, which are attached as exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4, 10.5 and 10.6 to this Report and incorporated herein by reference.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11. <u>Adjustment of Conversion Price</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.1 Deemed Issue of Options or Convertible Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If the Company at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date shall issue any Options or Convertible Securities (excluding Options or Convertible Securities which are themselves Exempted Securities) or shall fix a record date for the determination of holders of any class of securities entitled to receive any such Options or <u>Convertible</u> Securities, then the maximum number of shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instrument relating thereto, assuming the satisfaction of any conditions to exercisability, convertibility or exchangeability but without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise of such Options or, in the case of Convertible Securities and Options therefor, the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, shall be deemed to be Additional Shares of Common Stock issued as of the time of such issue or, in case such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If the terms of any Option or Convertible Security, the issuance of which resulted in an adjustment to the Conversion Price pursuant to the terms of <u>Section 11.2</u>, are revised as a result of an amendment to such terms or any other adjustment pursuant to the provisions of such Option or Convertible Security (but excluding automatic adjustments to such terms pursuant to anti-dilution or similar provisions of such Option or Convertible Security) to provide for either (1) any increase or decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion and/or exchange of any such Option or Convertible Security or (2) any increase or decrease in the consideration payable to the Company upon such exercise, conversion and/or exchange, then, effective upon such increase or decrease becoming effective, the Conversion Price computed upon the original issue of such Option or Convertible Security (or upon the occurrence of a record date with respect thereto) shall be readjusted to such Conversion Price as would have obtained had such revised terms been in effect upon the original date of issuance of such Option or Convertible Security. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no readjustment pursuant to this <u>clause (ii)</u> shall have the effect of increasing the Conversion Price then in effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If the terms of any Option or Convertible Security (excluding Options or Convertible Securities which are themselves Exempted Securities), the issuance of which did not result in an adjustment to the Conversion Price pursuant to the terms of <u>Section 11.2</u> (either because the consideration per share (determined pursuant to <u>Section 11.3</u>) of the Additional Shares of Common Stock subject thereto was equal to or greater than the Conversion Price then in effect, or because such Option or Convertible Security was issued before the Original Issue Date), are revised after the Original Issue Date as a result of an amendment to such terms or any other adjustment pursuant to the provisions of such Option or Convertible Security (but excluding automatic adjustments to such terms pursuant to anti-dilution or similar provisions of such Option or Convertible Security) to provide for either (1) any increase in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of any such Option or Convertible Security or (2) any decrease in the consideration payable to the Company upon such exercise, conversion or exchange, then such Option or Convertible Security, as so amended or adjusted, and the Additional Shares of Common Stock subject thereto (determined in the manner provided in <u>Section 11.1(a)</u> shall be deemed to have been issued effective upon such increase or decrease becoming effective.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Upon the expiration or termination of any unexercised Option or unconverted or unexchanged Convertible Security (or portion thereof) which resulted (either upon its original issuance or upon a revision of its terms) in an adjustment to the Conversion Price pursuant to the terms of <u>Section 11.2</u>, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to such Conversion Price as would have obtained had such Option or Convertible Security (or portion thereof) never been issued.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) If the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion and/or exchange of any Option or Convertible Security, or the consideration payable to the Company upon such exercise, conversion and/or exchange, is calculable at the time such Option or Convertible Security is issued or amended but is subject to adjustment based upon subsequent events, any adjustment to the Conversion Price provided for in this <u>Section 11.1</u> shall be effected at the time of such issuance or amendment based on such number of shares or amount of consideration without regard to any provisions for subsequent adjustments (and any subsequent adjustments shall be treated as provided in <u>clauses (b)</u> and (c) of this <u>Section 11.1</u>). If the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion and/or exchange of any Option or Convertible Security, or the consideration payable to the Company upon such exercise, conversion and/or exchange, cannot be calculated at all at the time such Option or Convertible Security is issued or amended, any adjustment to the Conversion Price that would result under the terms of this <u>Section 11.1</u> the time of such issuance or amendment shall instead be effected at the time such number of shares and/or amount of consideration is first calculable (even if subject to subsequent adjustments), assuming for purposes of calculating such adjustment to the Conversion Price that such issuance or amendment took place at the time such calculation can first be made.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.2 <u>Upon Issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock</u>. In the event the Company shall at any time after the Original Issue Date issue Additional Shares of Common Stock (including Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued pursuant to <u>Section 11.1</u>), for a consideration per share less than the applicable Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance or deemed issuance, then the Conversion Price shall be reduced, concurrently with such issuance or deemed issuance, to the consideration per share received by the Company for such issue or deemed issue of the Additional Shares of Common Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.3 <u>Determination of Consideration</u>. For purposes of this <u>Section 11</u>, the consideration received by the Company for the issuance or deemed issuance of any Additional Shares of Common Stock shall be computed as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Cash and Property</u>. Such consideration shall:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) insofar as it consists of cash, be computed at the aggregate amount of cash received by the Company, excluding amounts paid or payable for accrued interest;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) insofar as it consists of property other than cash, be computed at the fair market value thereof at the time of such issue, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) in the event Additional Shares of Common Stock are issued together with other shares or securities or other assets of the Company for consideration which covers both, be the proportion of such consideration so received, computed as provided in <u>clauses (i)</u> and <u>(ii)</u> above, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Options and Convertible Securities</u>. The consideration per share received by the Company for Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued pursuant to <u>Section 11.1</u>, relating to Options and Convertible Securities, shall be determined by dividing:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issue of such Options or Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such consideration) payable to the Company upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, or in the case of Options for Convertible Securities, the exercise of such Options for Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, by

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, or in the case of Options for Convertible Securities, the exercise of such Options for Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.4 <u>Multiple Closing Dates</u>. In the event the Company shall issue on more than one date <u>Additional</u> Shares of Common Stock that are a part of one transaction or a series of related transactions and that would result in an adjustment to the Conversion Price pursuant to the terms of <u>Section 11.2</u> then, upon the final such issuance, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to give effect to all such issuances as if they occurred on the date of the first such issuance (and without giving effect to any additional adjustments as a result of any such subsequent issuances within such period).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.5 <u>Adjustment for Stock Splits and Combinations</u>. If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date effect a subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock, the Conversion Price in effect immediately before that subdivision shall be proportionately decreased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of such series shall be increased in proportion to such increase in the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price in effect immediately before the combination shall be proportionately increased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of such series shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Any adjustment under this Section shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.6 <u>Adjustment for Certain Dividends and Distributions</u>. In the event the Company at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable on the Common Stock in additional shares of Common Stock, then and in each such event the Conversion Price in effect immediately before such event shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Conversion Price then in effect by a fraction:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if such record date shall have been fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, the Conversion Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date and thereafter the Conversion Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this Section as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or distributions; and (ii) that no such adjustment shall be made if the holders of Notes simultaneously receive a dividend or other distribution of shares of Common Stock in a number equal to the number of shares of Common Stock as they would have received if all outstanding shares of Notes had been converted into Common Stock on the date of such event.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.7 <u>Adjustments for Other Dividends and Distributions</u>. In the event the Company at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in securities of the Company (other than a distribution of shares of Common Stock in respect of outstanding shares of Common Stock) or in other property and the provisions of <u>Section 11.6</u> do not apply to such dividend or distribution, then and in each such event the holders of Notes shall receive, simultaneously with the distribution to the holders of Common Stock, a dividend or other distribution of such securities or other property in an amount equal to the amount of such securities or other property as they would have received if all outstanding Notes had been converted into Common Stock on the date of such event.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.8 <u>Adjustment for Merger or Reorganization, etc.</u>. Subject to the provisions of <u>Section 11.3</u>, if there shall occur any reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, consolidation or merger involving the Company in which the Common Stock is converted into or exchanged for securities, cash or other property (other than a transaction covered by <u>Sections 11.2</u>, <u>11.4</u> or <u>11.5</u>), then, following any such reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, consolidation or merger, each Note shall thereafter be convertible in lieu of the Common Stock into which it was convertible prior to such event into the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company issuable upon conversion of each Note outstanding immediately prior to such reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, consolidation or merger would have been entitled to receive pursuant to such transaction; and, in such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors) shall be made in the application of the provisions in this <u>Section 11.1</u> with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the holders of Notes, to the end that the provisions set forth in this <u>Section 11</u> (including provisions with respect to changes in and other adjustments of the Conversion Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to any securities or other property thereafter deliverable upon the conversion of the Notes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.9 <u>Certificate as to Adjustments</u>. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to this <u>Section 11</u>, the Company at its expense shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable but in any event not later than ten (10) days thereafter, compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to each holder of Notes a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment (including the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property into which each Note is convertible) and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Company shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the written request at any time of any holder of Notes (but in any event not later than ten (10) days thereafter), furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a certificate setting forth (i) the Conversion Price then in effect, and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other securities, cash or property which then would be received upon the conversion of $1,000 principal amount of Notes.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this <u>Section 11</u>, the Conversion Price shall not be adjusted upon the issuance of (i) any equity securities, Indebtedness, or any option, warrant or other right to purchase equity securities or Indebtedness, of the Excluded Subsidiary, (ii) any dividend or other distribution made by the Excluded Subsidiary, or (iii) upon the investment by the Excluded Subsidiary in any Person.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12. <u>Registration Rights</u>. The Company covenants and agrees as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.1 <u>Shelf Registration</u>. Within sixty (60) calendar days following the applicable Closing Date, the Company shall submit to or file with the Commission a Registration Statement for a Shelf Registration on Form S-3 (or if the Company is not then eligible to use Form S-3 for resales, on Form S-1) (or a post-effective amendment to a previously file Registration Statement) covering the resale of all the Registrable Securities (determined as of two (2) business days prior to such submission or filing) on a delayed or continuous basis and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have such Shelf Registration declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof. Such Shelf shall provide for the resale of the Registrable Securities included therein pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available (the "**Plan of Distribution**") to, and requested by, any holder named therein. The Company shall maintain the Shelf Registration in accordance with the terms hereof, and shall prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and supplements as may be necessary to keep a Shelf Registration continuously effective, available for use to permit the holders named therein to sell their Registrable Securities included therein and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until such time as they are no longer Registrable Securities. The Company's obligation under this <u>Section 12.1</u> shall, for the avoidance of doubt, be subject to <u>Section 12.4</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.2 <u>Additional Registrable Securities</u>. Subject to <u>Section 12.4</u>, in the event that any holder holds Registrable Securities that are not registered for resale on a delayed or continuous basis, the Company, upon written request of such holder, shall promptly use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the resale of such Registrable Securities to be covered by either, at the Company's option, any then available Shelf (including by means of a post-effective amendment) or by filing a subsequent Shelf Registration and cause the same to become effective as soon as practicable after such filing and such subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be subject to the terms hereof; *provided*, *however*, that the Company shall only be required to cause such additional Registrable Securities to be so covered once per calendar year for all holders of Registrable Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.3 <u>Underwriting Requirements</u>. If a holder of Registrable Securities intends to distribute Registrable Securities with a value in excess of $5,000,000 by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the Company and the underwriter(s) shall be subject to the reasonable approval of the Company. In such event, the right of any holder to include such holder's Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such holder's participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such holder's Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter(s) selected for such underwriting. Notwithstanding any other provision of this <u>Section 12.3</u>, if the managing underwriter(s) advise(s) the holders in writing that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be underwritten, then the number of Registrable Securities that may be included in the underwriting shall be allocated among such holders of Registrable Securities in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the number of Registrable Securities owned by each Holder or in such other proportion as shall mutually be agreed to by all such selling Holders. To facilitate the allocation of shares in accordance with the above provisions, the Company or the underwriters may round the number of shares allocated to any Holder to the nearest one hundred (100) shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.4 <u>Obligations of the Company</u>. Whenever required under this <u>Section 12</u> to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective and keep such registration statement effective until the distribution <u>contemplated</u> in the registration statement has been completed or until there are no Registrable Securities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement, and the prospectus used in connection with such registration statement, as may be <u>necessary</u> to comply with the Securities Act in order to enable the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) furnish to the selling holders such numbers of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, as required by the Securities Act, and such other documents as the holders may reasonably request in order to facilitate their disposition of their Registrable Securities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) use its commercially reasonable efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by <u>such</u> registration statement under such other securities or blue-sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the selling holders; *provided* that the Company shall not be required to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) in the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the underwriter(s) of such <u>offering</u>;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement to be listed on a national securities exchange or trading system and <u>each</u> securities exchange and trading system (if any) on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities registered pursuant to <u>this</u> Agreement and provide a CUSIP number for all such Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective date of such registration;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) promptly make available for inspection by the selling holders, any managing underwriter(s) participating in any disposition pursuant to such registration statement, and any attorney or accountant or other agent retained by any such underwriter or selected by the selling holders, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents, and properties of the Company, and cause the Company's officers, directors, employees, and independent accountants to supply all information reasonably requested by any such seller, <u>underwriter</u>, attorney, accountant, or agent, in each case, as necessary or advisable to verify the accuracy of the information in such registration statement and to conduct appropriate due diligence in connection therewith;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) notify each selling holder, promptly after the Company receives notice thereof, of the time when <u>such</u> registration statement has been declared effective or a supplement to any prospectus forming a part of such registration statement has been filed; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) after such registration statement becomes effective, notify each selling holder of any request by the Commission that the Company amend or supplement such registration statement or <u>prospectus</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.5 <u>Furnish Information</u>. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to <u>take</u> any action pursuant to this <u>Section 12</u> with respect to the Registrable Securities of any selling holder that such holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of such securities as is reasonably required to effect the registration of such holder's Registrable Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.6 <u>Expenses of Registration</u>. All expenses (other than selling expenses such as underwriting or brokerage commissions and similar) incurred in connection with registrations, filings, or qualifications pursuant to <u>Section 12</u>, including all registration, filing, and qualification fees; printers' and accounting fees; fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company; and the reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel for each selling holder of the Registrable Securities to be registered ("**Selling Holder Counsel**"), shall be borne and paid by the Company. All selling expenses relating to Registrable Securities registered pursuant to this <u>Section 12</u> shall be borne and paid by the applicable selling holder(s).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.7 Suspension of Sales; Adverse Disclosure; Restrictions on Registration Rights.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) (i) Upon receipt of written notice from the Company to holders of Registrable Securities that a Registration Statement or related prospectus contains a Misstatement; or (ii) upon written notice from the Company that the Commission has requested an amendment or supplement to a Registration Statement or related prospectus or additional information, or an event has occurred that requires the preparation of a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the securities covered by such Registration Statement, such Registration Statement and related prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; the relevant holder(s) shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities until it has received copies of a supplemented or amended prospectus (it being understood that the Company hereby covenants to prepare and file such supplement or amendment as soon as reasonably practicable after the time of such notice), or until it is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the prospectus may be resumed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement in respect of any Shelf Registration at any time would (i) require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure, (ii) require the inclusion in such Registration Statement of financial statements that are unavailable to the Company for reasons beyond the Company's control, (iii) materially interfere with a significant acquisition, corporate reorganization, or other similar transaction involving the Company; or (iv) in the good faith judgment of the majority of the Board of Directors of the Company such registration be seriously detrimental to the Company and the majority of the Board of Directors of the Company concludes as a result that it is essential to defer such filing, initial effectiveness or continued use at such time, the Company may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the holders of Registrable Securities (which notice shall not specify the nature of the event giving rise to such delay or suspension), delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, such Registration Statement for the shortest period of time determined in good faith by the Company to be necessary for such purpose. In the event the Company exercises its rights under this <u>Section 12.7</u>, the holders agree to suspend, immediately upon their receipt of the notice referred to above, their use of the prospectus relating to any registration in connection with any sale or offer to sell Registrable Securities until such holder receives written notice from the Company that such sales or offers of Registrable Securities may be resumed, and in each case maintain the confidentiality of such notice and its contents; *provided*, *however*, that the right to delay or suspend any filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement pursuant to this <u>Section 12.7(b)</u> shall be exercised by the Company, in the aggregate, for not more than sixty (60) consecutive calendar days or more than one hundred and twenty (120) total calendar days, in each case, during any period of twelve (12) consecutive months.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.8 <u>Reporting Obligations</u>. As long as any holder shall own Registrable Securities, the Company, at all times while it shall be a reporting company under the Exchange Act, covenants to file timely (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to Sections 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and to promptly furnish the holders with true and complete copies of all such filings; *provided* that any documents publicly filed or furnished with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR shall be deemed to have been furnished or delivered to the holders pursuant to this <u>Section 12.8</u>. The Company further covenants that it shall take such further action as any holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such holder to sell shares of Common Stock held by such holder without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (or any successor rule then in effect) including, without limitation, delivering all such legal opinions, consents, certificates, resolutions and instructions to the Company's transfer agent as may be reasonably requested from time to time by the holder and otherwise use commercially reasonable efforts to fully cooperate with the holder and the holder's broker to effect such sale of securities pursuant to Rule 144. Upon the request of any holder, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with such requirements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.9 <u>Indemnification</u>. If any Registrable Securities are included in a registration statement under this <u>Section 12</u>:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each selling holder, and the partners, members, officers, directors, and stockholders of each such holder; legal counsel and accountants for each such holder; any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for each such holder; and each Person, if any, who controls such holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented outside attorneys' fees) ("**Indemnifiable Damages**") resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in or incorporated by reference in any Registration Statement and related prospectus or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and the Company will pay to the each such selling holder and each other aforementioned Person any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred thereby in connection with investigating or defending any claim or proceeding from which Indemnifiable Damages may result, as such expenses are incurred; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the indemnity agreement contained in this <u>Section 12.9(a)</u> shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such claim or proceeding if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, nor shall the Company be liable for any Indemnifiable Damages to the extent that it arises out of or are based upon actions or omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by or on behalf of any such holder, underwriter, controlling Person, or other aforementioned Person expressly for use in connection with such registration.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) To the extent permitted by law, each selling holder, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, and each of its directors, each of its officers who has signed the registration statement, against any Indemnifiable Damages resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in or incorporated by reference in any Registration Statement and related prospectus or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case only to the extent that such Indemnifiable Damages arise out of or are based upon actions or omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by or on behalf of such selling holder expressly for use in connection with such registration; and each such selling holder will pay to the Company and each other aforementioned Person any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred thereby in connection with investigating or defending any claim or proceeding from which Indemnifiable Damages may result, as such expenses are incurred; *provided*, *however*, that the indemnity agreement contained in this <u>Section 12.9(b)</u> shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such claim or proceeding if such settlement is effected without the consent of such holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and *provided further* that in no event shall the aggregate amounts payable by any holder by way of indemnity or contribution under <u>Section 12.7(b)</u> exceed the proceeds from the offering received by such holder (net of any selling expenses paid by such holder), except in the case of fraud or willful misconduct by such holder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this <u>Section 12.9</u> of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action) for which a party may be entitled to indemnification hereunder, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this <u>Section 12.9</u>, give the indemnifying party notice of the commencement thereof. The indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in such action and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, participate jointly with any other indemnifying party to which notice has been given, and to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; *provided*, *however*, that an indemnified party (together with all other indemnified parties that may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such action. The failure to give notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this <u>Section 12.9</u> only to the extent that such failure materially prejudices the indemnifying party's ability to defend such action. The failure to give notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this <u>Section 12.9</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) To provide for just and equitable contribution to joint liability under the Securities Act in any case in which either: (i) any party otherwise entitled to indemnification hereunder makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this <u>Section 12.9</u> but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case, notwithstanding the fact that this <u>Section 12.9</u> provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the Securities Act may be required on the part of any party hereto for which indemnification is provided under this <u>Section 12.9</u>, then, and in each such case, such parties will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or expenses to which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of each of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in connection with the statements, omissions, or other actions that resulted in such loss, claim, damage, liability, or expense, as well as to reflect any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or allegedly untrue statement of a material fact, or the omission or alleged omission of a material fact, relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission; *provided*, *however*, that, in any such case (x) no Holder will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the public offering price of all such Registrable Securities offered and sold by such Holder pursuant to such registration statement, and (y) no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation; and *provided further* that in no event shall a Holder's liability pursuant to this <u>Section 12.9</u>, when combined with the amounts paid or payable by such Holder pursuant to <u>Section 12.8(b)</u>, exceed the proceeds from the offering received by such Holder (net of any Selling Expenses paid by such Holder), except in the case of willful misconduct or fraud by such Holder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The obligations of the Company and holders under this <u>Section 12.9</u> shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration under this <u>Section 12</u>, and otherwise shall survive the termination of this Agreement or any provision(s) of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.10 <u>"Market Stand-off" Agreement</u>. Each holder of Registrable Securities hereby agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of the managing underwriter, during the period commencing on the date of the final prospectus relating to the registration by the Company for its own behalf of shares of its Common Stock or any other equity securities under the Securities Act on a registration statement on Form S-1 or Form S-3, and ending on the date specified by the Company and the managing underwriter (such period not to exceed ninety (90) days), (i) lend; offer; pledge; sell; contract to sell; sell any option or contract to purchase; purchase any option or contract to sell; grant any option, right, or warrant to purchase; or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable (directly or indirectly) for Common Stock held immediately before the effective date of the registration statement for such offering or (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of such securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or other securities, in cash, or otherwise. The foregoing provisions of this <u>Section 12.10</u> shall not apply to the sale of any shares to an underwriter pursuant to an underwriting agreement or to the establishment of a trading plan pursuant to Rule 10b5-1, *provided* that such plan does not permit transfers during the restricted period, or the transfer of any shares to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of a holder or the immediate family of a holder, *provided* that the trustee of the trust agrees to be bound in writing by the restrictions set forth herein, and *provided further* that any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value, and shall be applicable to the holders only if all officers and directors of the Company are subject to the same restrictions. The underwriters in connection with such registration are intended third-party beneficiaries of this <u>Section 12.10</u> and shall have the right, power and authority to enforce the provisions hereof as though they were a party hereto. Each holder of Registrable Securities further agrees to execute such customary lock-up agreements as may be reasonably requested by the underwriters in connection with such registration that are consistent with this <u>Section 12.10</u> or that are necessary to give further effect thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.11 <u>Restrictions on Transfer</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Registrable Securities shall not be sold, pledged, or otherwise transferred, and the Company shall not recognize and shall issue stop-transfer instructions to its transfer agent with respect to any such sale, pledge, or transfer, except upon the conditions specified in this Agreement, which conditions are intended to ensure compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act. A transferring holder will cause any proposed purchaser, pledgee, or transferee of the Registrable Securities held by such holder to agree to take and hold such securities subject to the provisions and upon the conditions specified in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not require any transferee of shares pursuant to an effective registration statement or Rule 144 of the Securities Act or to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Each certificate, instrument, or book entry representing (i) the Registrable Securities, and (ii) any other securities issued in respect of the securities referenced in <u>clause (i</u>), upon any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, or similar event, shall be notated with a legend substantially in the form set forth in Section 6.8(a). The Holders consent to the Company making a notation in its records and giving instructions to any transfer agent of the Restricted Securities in order to implement the restrictions set forth in such legend.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The holder of such Restricted Securities, by acceptance of ownership thereof, agrees to comply in all respects with the provisions of this <u>Section 12</u>. Before any proposed sale, pledge, or transfer of any Restricted Securities, unless there is in effect a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the proposed transaction, the holder thereof shall give notice to the Company of such holder's intention to effect such sale, pledge, or transfer, *provided* that no such notice shall be required in connection if the intended sale, pledge or transfer complies with Rule 144. Each such notice shall describe the manner and circumstances of the proposed sale, pledge, or transfer in sufficient detail and, if reasonably requested by the Company, shall be accompanied at such holder's expense by evidence reasonably satisfactory to counsel to the Company to the effect that the proposed sale, pledge, or transfer of the Restricted Securities may be effected without registration under the Securities Act, whereupon the holder of such Restricted Securities shall be entitled to sell, pledge, or transfer such Restricted Securities in accordance with the terms of the notice given by the Holder to the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13. <u>Guaranty</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13.1 <u>Guaranty</u>. To induce the Initial Holder and the Holders to purchase the Notes, each Guarantor hereby, jointly and severally, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, the full and punctual payment when due, whether at stated maturity or earlier, by reason of acceleration, mandatory prepayment or otherwise in accordance with any Note Document, of all the Secured Obligations of the Company and Co-Issuer whether existing on the date hereof or hereinafter incurred or created (the "<u>Guaranteed Obligations</u>"). This Guaranty by each Guarantor hereunder constitutes a guaranty of payment and not of collection.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13.2 <u>Limitation of Guaranty</u>. Any term or provision of this Guaranty or any other Note Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum aggregate amount for which any Guarantor shall be liable hereunder shall not exceed the maximum amount for which such Guarantor can be liable without rendering this Guaranty or any other Note Document, as it relates to such Guarantor, subject to avoidance under applicable Laws relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer (including the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act and Section 548 of title 11 of the United States Code or any applicable provisions of comparable Laws) (collectively, "<u>Fraudulent Transfer Laws</u>"). Any analysis of the provisions of this Guaranty for purposes of Fraudulent Transfer Laws shall take into account the right of contribution established herein and, for purposes of such analysis, give effect to any discharge of intercompany debt as a result of any payment made under the Guaranty.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13.3 <u>Contribution</u>. To the extent that any Guarantor shall be required hereunder to pay any portion of any Guaranteed Obligation exceeding the greater of (a) the amount of the value actually received by such Guarantor and its Subsidiaries from the Notes and other Secured Obligations and (b) the amount such Guarantor would otherwise have paid if such Guarantor had paid the aggregate amount of the Guaranteed Obligations (excluding the amount thereof repaid by the Company and Co-Issuer) in the same proportion as such Guarantor's net worth on the date enforcement is sought hereunder bears to the aggregate net worth of all the Guarantors on such date, then such Guarantor shall be reimbursed by such other Guarantors for the amount of such excess, pro rata, based on the respective net worth of such other Guarantors on such date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13.4 <u>Authorization; Other Agreements</u>. The Initial Holder is hereby authorized, without notice to or demand upon any Guarantor and without discharging or otherwise affecting the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder and without incurring any liability hereunder, from time to time, to do each of the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) refund at any time any payment received by any Holder in respect of any Guaranteed Obligation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) (i) sell, exchange, enforce, waive, substitute, liquidate, terminate, release, abandon, fail to perfect, subordinate, accept, substitute, surrender, exchange, affect, impair or otherwise alter or release any Collateral (as defined in the Security Agreement) for any Guaranteed Obligation or any other guaranty therefor in any manner, (ii) receive, take and hold additional Collateral (as defined in the Security Agreement) to secure any Guaranteed Obligation, (iii) add, release or substitute any one or more other Guarantors, makers or endorsers of any Guaranteed Obligation or any part thereof and (iv) otherwise deal in any manner with the Company, the Co-Issuer or any other Guarantor, maker or endorser of any Guaranteed Obligation or any part thereof; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13.5 <u>Guaranty Absolute and Unconditional</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the absence of (i) any attempt to collect any Guaranteed Obligation or any part thereof from the Company, Co-Issuer or any Guarantor or other action to enforce the same or (ii) any action to enforce any Note Document or any lien thereunder;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) any workout, insolvency, bankruptcy proceeding, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation or dissolution by or against the Company, Co-Issuer, any Guarantor or any of the Company's or Co-Issuer's other Subsidiaries or any procedure, agreement, order, stipulation, election, action or omission thereunder, including any discharge or disallowance of, or bar or stay against collecting, any Guaranteed Obligation (or any interest thereon) in or as a result of any such proceeding;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) any foreclosure, whether or not through judicial sale, and any other sale or other disposition of any Collateral (as defined in the Security Agreement) or any election during the occurrence of an Event of Default by Initial Holder to proceed separately against any Collateral (as defined in the Security Agreement) in accordance with Initial Holder's rights under any applicable law; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) any other defense, setoff, counterclaim or any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the Company, Co-Issuer, any Guarantor or any of the Company's or Co-Issuer's other Subsidiaries, in each case other than the payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent indemnification and expense reimbursement obligations to the extent no claim giving rise thereto has been asserted).

**1.1.** **Manner of Exercise; Net Exercise.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Exercise</u> The Holder may exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part (except as to a fractional share), at any time and from time to time during normal business hours on any Business Day on or after the Stockholder Approval Date and on or prior to the Expiration Date, by (i) delivering to the Company a written notice, in the form attached hereto as <u>Exhibit A</u> (the "<u>Exercise Notice</u>"), duly executed by the Holder, specifying the number of Warrant Shares as to which the Warrant is being exercised, (ii) surrendering this Warrant to the Company, properly endorsed by the Holder (or if this Warrant has been destroyed, stolen or has otherwise been misplaced, by delivering to the Company an affidavit of loss duly executed by the Holder), and (iii) by tendering payment for the shares of Common Stock designated by the Exercise Notice in lawful money of the United States in the form of cash, bank or certified check made payable to the order of the Company, or by wire transfer of immediately available funds, or by the cancellation of Indebtedness of the Company owed to the Holder, or in any combination thereof, of an amount equal to the product of (A) the Warrant Price and (B) the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Net Exercise</u> The Holder may, in lieu of exercising or converting this Warrant pursuant to the terms of Section 1.1(a), elect to net exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part (except as to a fractional share), at any time and from time to time during normal business hours on any Business Day on or after the Stockholder Approval Date and on or prior to the Expiration Date by (i) delivering to the Company a written notice, in the form attached hereto as <u>Exhibit B</u> (the "<u>Net Exercise Notice</u>"), duly executed by the Holder, specifying the number of Warrant Shares for which the Warrant is being net exercised, and (ii) surrendering this Warrant to the Company, properly endorsed by the Holder (or if this Warrant has been destroyed, stolen or has otherwise been misplaced, by delivering to the Company an affidavit of loss duly executed by the Holder), and the Holder shall thereupon been entitled to receive the number of Warrant Shares equal to the product of (i) the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (or, if only a portion of this Warrant is being exercised, issuable upon the exercise of such portion) for cash, determined as provided in Section 2, and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock at the time of such exercise *minus* the Warrant Price in effect at the time of such exercise, and the denominator of which is the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock at the time of such exercise, such number of shares so issuable upon such net exercise to be rounded up or down to the nearest whole number of shares of Common Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The "net exercise" of this Warrant pursuant to Section 1.1(b) is intended to qualify as a recapitalization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(E) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) For all purposes of this Warrant (other than this Section 1.1), any reference herein to the "exercise" of this Warrant shall be deemed to include a reference to the net exercise of this Warrant into Common Stock in accordance with the terms of Section 1.1(b), and any reference to an "Exercise Notice" shall be deemed to include a reference to a Net Exercise in accordance with the terms of Section 1.1(b).

**1.2.** **When Exercise Effective** Each exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the Business Day on which this Warrant shall be deemed to have been surrendered to the Company as provided in Section 1.1, and at such time the Person or Persons in whose name or names any certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon such exercise as provided in Section 1.3 shall be deemed to have become the Holder or Holders of record thereof.

**1.3.** **Delivery of Stock Certificates Upon Exercise** As soon as practicable after exercise of this Warrant in accordance with this Section 1, but in no event later than five (5) Business Days after such exercise, the Company shall at its expense cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to the Holder or, subject to Section 5 of this Warrant, as the Holder may direct: (a) a certificate or certificates for the number of Warrant Shares, determined as provided in Section 2 of this Warrant, to which the Holder shall be entitled upon such exercise and, (b) unless this Warrant has expired or has been exercised in full, a new Warrant (or Warrants) substantially in the form of, and on the terms in, this Warrant, for the number of Warrant Shares remaining following such exercise, and shall be subject to adjustment as provided for in this Warrant as of the date hereof.

**<u>Section 2. Adjustments to Warrant Price and Warrant Shares</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock</u> If the Company shall at any time after the date hereof subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares (by any stock split, stock dividend or otherwise), then the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Shares for which the Warrant is then exercisable will be proportionately increased, and, conversely, if the Company shall at any time after the date hereof combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares (by any reverse stock split or otherwise), then the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Shares for which the Warrant is then exercisable will be proportionately reduced.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Reorganization or Reclassification</u> If any capital reorganization or reclassification of the capital stock of the Company other than a transaction described in Section 2(d) below shall be effected in such a way that Holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock, then, as a condition of such reorganization or reclassification, lawful and adequate provisions shall be made whereby the Holder shall thereupon have the right to receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the Warrant Shares immediately theretofore receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant in full, as the case may be, such shares of stock, securities or assets as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of outstanding shares of such Common Stock equal to the number of shares of such Common Stock immediately theretofore receivable upon such exercise of this Warrant in full had such reorganization or reclassification not taken place, and in any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustments of the Warrant Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be, in relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of such conversion rights.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Dividends and Distributions</u>. If the Company at any time or from time to time after the date hereof makes or issues, or fixes a record date for the determination of Holders of capital stock of the Company entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) securities or other property of the Company other than shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities then the Holder shall receive such dividend or distribution as if the Holders had exercised all of the Warrants in full on the date such record is taken; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, then the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such dividend or distribution shall be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Shares for which the Warrant is then exercisable will be proportionately increased.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Adjustment for Merger or Consolidation, etc.; Fundamental Change.</u> In the event that the Company shall effect any change of control, merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation (or other legal entity), or any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to another corporation (or other legal entity) (a "Fundamental Change"), this Warrant shall be exchanged for the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash, if applicable) to which a Holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant in full would have been entitled upon such Fundamental Change (and any distribution of assets to stockholders following such Fundamental Change).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Record Date.</u> If the Company takes a record of the Holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (i) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, or (ii) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, then such record date shall be deemed to be the date of the issuance or sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may be.

**<u>Section 3. Covenants of the Company</u>**

**3.1.** The Company covenants and agrees that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) all shares of Common Stock that may be issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant shall have been duly authorized, and shall, upon issuance, be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Each Grantor authorizes the filing by the Secured Party (with no obligation) of financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, and such Grantor will execute and deliver to the Secured Party such other instruments or notices, as the Secured Party may reasonably request, in order to perfect and preserve the Security Interest purported to be granted hereby.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Each Grantor authorizes the Secured Party (with no obligation) at any time and from time to time to file, transmit, or communicate, as applicable, financing statements and amendments (i) describing the Collateral as "all personal property of debtor" or "all assets of debtor" or words of similar effect, (ii) describing the Collateral as being of equal or lesser scope or with greater detail, or (iii) that contain any information required by part 5 of Article 9 of the Code for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. <u>Secured Party Appointed Attorney-in-Fact</u>. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints the Secured Party its attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or otherwise, at such time as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under any Note Document, to take any action and to execute any instrument which may be necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) to ask, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compromise, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in connection with the Accounts or any other Collateral of such Grantor;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings which may be necessary to protect the Secured Party's security interest;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) to repair, alter, or supply goods, if any, necessary to fulfill in whole or in part the purchase order of any Person obligated to such Grantor in respect of any Account of such Grantor;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) to use any Intellectual Property or exercise any rights under Intellectual Property Licenses of such Grantor, including but not limited to any labels, Patents, Trademarks, trade names, URLs, domain names, industrial designs, Copyrights, or advertising matter, in preparing for sale, advertising for sale, or selling Inventory or other Collateral and to collect any amounts due under Accounts, contracts or Negotiable Collateral of such Grantor; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) the Secured Party shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to bring suit in its own name to enforce the Intellectual Property and Intellectual Property Licenses and, if the Secured Party shall commence any such suit, the appropriate Grantor shall, at the request of the Secured Party, do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all proper documents reasonably required by the Secured Party in aid of such enforcement.

To the extent permitted by law, each Grantor hereby ratifies all that such attorney-in-fact shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. This power of attorney is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11. <u>Secured Party May Perform</u>. If any Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, the Secured Party may, but shall not be obligated to, itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the reasonable expenses of the Secured Party incurred in connection therewith shall be payable, jointly and severally, by Grantors.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12. <u>Secured Party's Duties</u>. The powers conferred on the Secured Party hereunder are solely to protect the Secured Party's interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Secured Party to exercise any such powers. Except for the safe custody of any Collateral in its actual possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Secured Party shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. The Secured Party shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral in its actual possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Secured Party accords its own property.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13. <u>Collection of Accounts, General Intangibles and Negotiable Collateral</u>. At any time upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Secured Party or the Secured Party's designee may (a) notify Account Debtors of any Grantor that the Accounts, General Intangibles, Chattel Paper or Negotiable Collateral of such Grantor have been assigned to the Secured Party or that the Secured Party has a security interest therein, and (b) collect the Accounts, General Intangibles and Negotiable Collateral of any Grantor directly, and any collection costs and expenses shall constitute part of such Grantor's Secured Obligations under the applicable Note Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14. <u>Disposition of Pledged Interests by the Secured Party</u>. None of the Pledged Interests existing as of the date of this Agreement are, and none of the Pledged Interests hereafter acquired on the date of acquisition thereof are expected to be, registered or qualified under the various federal or state securities laws of the United States and disposition thereof after an Event of Default may be restricted to one or more private (instead of public) sales in view of the lack of such registration. Each Grantor understands that in connection with such disposition, the Secured Party may approach only a restricted number of potential purchasers and further understands that a sale under such circumstances may yield a lower price for the Pledged Interests than if the Pledged Interests were registered and qualified pursuant to federal and state securities laws and sold on the open market. Each Grantor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims against the Secured Party arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Pledged Interests or any part thereof may have been sold, assigned or licensed at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Secured Party accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Pledged Interests to more than one offeree.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15. <u>Voting and Other Rights in Respect of Pledged Interests</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, (i) the Secured Party shall have the right, at its option, and in addition to all rights and remedies available to the Secured Party hereunder or under any other agreement, at law, in equity, or otherwise, exercise all voting rights, or any other ownership or consensual rights (including any dividend or distribution rights) in respect of the Pledged Interests owned by such Grantor, but under no circumstances is the Secured Party obligated by the terms of this Agreement to exercise such rights, and (ii) if the Secured Party duly exercises its right to vote any of such Pledged Interests, each Grantor hereby appoints the Secured Party, such Grantor's true and lawful attorney-in-fact and irrevocable proxy to vote such Pledged Interests in any manner the Secured Party deems advisable for or against all matters submitted or which may be submitted to a vote of shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be. The power-of-attorney and proxy granted hereby is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) For so long as any Grantor shall have the right to vote the Pledged Interests owned by it, such Grantor covenants and agrees that it will not vote or take any consensual action with respect to such Pledged Interests which would materially adversely affect the rights of the Secured Party or the value of the Pledged Interests.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;16. <u>Remedies</u>. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the Secured Party may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein, in the other Note Documents, or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the Code or any other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor expressly agrees that, in any such event, the Secured Party without demand of performance or other demand, advertisement or notice of any kind (except a notice specified below of time and place of public or private sale) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, advertisements and notices are hereby expressly waived to the maximum extent permitted by the Code or any other applicable law), may take immediate possession of all or any portion of the Collateral and (i) require Grantors to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it will at its own expense and upon request of the Secured Party forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by the Secured Party and make it available to the Secured Party at one or more locations where such Grantor regularly maintains Collateral, and (ii) without notice except as specified below, sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of the Secured Party's offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit, and upon such other terms as the Secured Party may deem commercially reasonable. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten (10) calendar days' notice to the applicable Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification and specifically such notice shall constitute a reasonable "authenticated notification of disposition" within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the Code. The Secured Party shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Secured Party may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. Each Grantor agrees that (A) the internet shall constitute a "place" for purposes of Section 9-610(b) of the Code, and (B) to the extent notification of sale shall be required by law, notification by mail of the URL where a sale will occur and the time when a sale will commence at least ten days prior to the sale shall constitute a reasonable notification for purposes of Section 9- 611(b) of the Code. Each Grantor agrees that any sale of Collateral to a licensor pursuant to the terms of a license agreement between such licensor and a Grantor is sufficient to constitute a commercially reasonable disposition (including as to method, terms, manner, and time) within the meaning of Section 9-610 of the Code.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Secured Party is hereby granted a license or other right to use, without liability for royalties or any other charge, each Grantor's Intellectual Property, including but not limited to, any labels, Patents, Trademarks, trade names, URLs, domain names, industrial designs, Copyrights, and advertising matter, whether owned by any Grantor or with respect to which any Grantor has rights under license, sublicense, or other agreements (including any Intellectual Property License), as it pertains to the Collateral, in preparing for sale, advertising for sale and selling any Collateral, and each Grantor's rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to the benefit of the Secured Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) [Reserved].

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Any cash held by the Secured Party as Collateral and all cash proceeds received by the Secured Party in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied against the Secured Obligations pursuant to the terms of the NPA. In the event the proceeds of Collateral are insufficient to satisfy all of the Secured Obligations in full, each Grantor shall remain jointly and severally liable for any such deficiency.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Each Grantor hereby acknowledges that the Secured Obligations arise out of a commercial transaction, and agrees that if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing the Secured Party shall have the right to an immediate writ of possession without notice of a hearing. The Secured Party shall have the right to the appointment of a receiver for the properties and assets of each Grantor, and each Grantor hereby consents to such rights and such appointment and hereby waives any objection such Grantor may have thereto or the right to have a bond or other security posted by the Secured Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;17. <u>Remedies Cumulative</u>. Each right, power, and remedy of the Secured Party as provided for in this Agreement or in the other Note Documents or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power, or remedy provided for in this Agreement or in the other Note Documents or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Secured Party, of any one or more of such rights, powers, or remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by the Secured Party of any or all such other rights, powers, or remedies.

Each Grantor is entering into this Patent Security Agreement in order to induce the Holders to purchase the Notes and to secure the Secured Obligations;

**WHEREAS**, the Holders are willing to enter into the NPA and the Holders are willing to purchase the Notes, but only upon the condition, among others, that Grantors shall have executed and delivered to the Secured Party that certain Security and Pledge Agreement, dated as of February 21, 2023, by and among the Secured Party, the Company, the Co-Issuer, Gelesis 2012, Inc., a Delaware corporation, Gelesis, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and the other parties thereto from time to time (including all annexes, exhibits or schedules thereto, as from time to time amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, the "**Security and Pledge Agreement**"); and

**WHEREAS**, pursuant to the Security and Pledge Agreement, Grantors are required to execute and deliver to the Secured Party this Patent Security Agreement;

**NOW**, **THEREFORE**, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants herein contained and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each Grantor hereby agrees as follows:

2. <u>GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST IN PATENT COLLATERAL</u>.

If any Grantor shall obtain rights to any new patent application or issued patent or become entitled to the benefit of any patent application or patent for any divisional, continuation, continuation-in-part, reissue, or reexamination of any existing patent or patent application, the provisions of this Patent Security Agreement shall automatically apply thereto. Without limiting the Grantors' obligations under the Note Documents, each Grantor hereby authorizes the Secured Party to unilaterally modify this Patent Security Agreement by amending <u>Schedule I</u> to include any new patent rights of each Grantor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure to so modify this Patent Security Agreement or amend <u>Schedule I</u> shall in any way affect, invalidate or detract from the Secured Party's continuing security interest in all Collateral, whether or not listed on <u>Schedule I</u>.

6. <u>COUNTERPARTS</u>. This Patent Security Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Patent Security Agreement.

Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Patent Security Agreement by telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Patent Security Agreement but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Patent Security Agreement.

Without limiting the Grantors' obligations under the Note Documents, each Grantor hereby authorizes the Secured Party to unilaterally modify this Trademark Security Agreement by amending <u>Schedule I</u> to include any such new trademark rights of each Grantor.

Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Trademark Security Agreement by telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Trademark Security Agreement. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Trademark Security Agreement by telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Trademark Security Agreement but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Trademark Security Agreement.
