If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request of the Holder and upon surrender of this Warrant, at the time of delivery of the certificate or certificates representing the Warrant Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant.
(b)The “Exercise Period” is that period beginning on the date hereof, and continuing up to and including 11:59.59 p.m., St. Louis Missouri time, on March 25, 2027 (the “Expiration Date”). The Company shall cause the Warrant Shares purchased hereunder to be issued by the Transfer Agent to the Holder by electronic book-entry, at the election of the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s prime broker with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder for the applicable number of Warrant Shares to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that is two (2) Trading Days after the latest of (1) the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise, (2) surrender of this Warrant (if required), (3) payment of the aggregate Exercise Price as set forth above and (4) two (2) Trading Days following a cashless exercise pursuant to Section 6, if applicable (such date in (1), (2), (3) or (4), the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”).  The applicable Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been issued, and the Holder or any other Person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such shares for all purposes, as of the applicable exercise date or the date that is two (2) Trading Days following a cashless exercise pursuant to Section 6, as applicable.
(c)The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise as set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any other Persons acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates (such Persons, the “Attribution Parties”)), would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below).  For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to 

which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Attribution Parties.  Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 3(c), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 3(c) applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination.  In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.  For purposes of this Section 3(c), in determining the number of Outstanding Shares of Common Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of Outstanding Shares of Common Stock as reflected in (A) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (C) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of Outstanding Shares of Common Stock.  In any case, the number of Outstanding Shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its Attribution Parties since the date as of which such number of Outstanding Shares of Common Stock was reported.  The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 9.99% of the number of Outstanding Shares of the Common Stock immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.  The Holder, upon notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 3(c), provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 19.99% of the number of Outstanding Shares of the Common Stock immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant held by the Holder and the provisions of this Section 3(c) shall continue to apply.  Any increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company.  The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 3(c) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.2
(d)In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails to issue or cause the issuance of the Warrant Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 3(b) on or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date, and if after such date the Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (i) pay in cash to the Holder the amount, if any, by which (A) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (B) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue, times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (ii) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored (in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder.  The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss.  Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

4.Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares.
(a)The Exercise Price and Warrant Shares shall be subject to the following adjustments:
(i)If, at any time during the Exercise Period, the Company shall declare and pay on the Company’s Common Stock a dividend or other distribution payable in shares of Common Stock, the Warrant Shares shall be proportionately increased so that the Holder shall be entitled to receive (upon exercise of this Warrant) the number of shares of Common Stock which the Holder would have owned or been entitled to receive after the declaration and payment of such dividend or other distribution if the Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or other distribution, and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased so that the aggregate Exercise Price payable upon exercise in full of this Warrant shall remain the same.
(ii)If, at any time during the Exercise Period, the Company shall subdivide the Outstanding Shares of the Company’s Common Stock into a greater number of shares, or combine the Outstanding Shares of Common Stock into a lesser number of shares, or issue by reclassification of its shares of Common Stock any shares of the Company’s Common Stock, the Warrant Shares shall be proportionately adjusted so that the Holder shall be entitled to receive (upon exercise of this Warrant) the number of shares of Common Stock or such other shares which the Holder would have owned or been entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events described above if the Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to the happening of such event on the day upon which such subdivision, combination or reclassification, as the case may be, becomes effective, and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately adjusted so that the aggregate Exercise Price payable upon exercise in full of this Warrant shall remain the same.
(b)Whenever the Warrant Shares or the Exercise Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this Section 4, the Company shall deliver to the Holder a written notice setting forth in reasonable detail the event requiring the adjustment and the method by which such adjustment was calculated and specifying the new Warrant Shares and Exercise Price.  All calculations under this Section 4 shall be made to the nearest one-one hundredth of a share.
(c)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Warrant or the Subscription Agreement, if the issuance of the Shares and Warrants pursuant to the Subscription Agreement Company is not compliant with the listing rules of the NYSE, including Section 312 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, then, to the extent that this Warrant is not exercisable in full, the Applicable Number of Warrant Shares shall be reduced as required to comply with such listing rules, and the Company shall compensate by payment in cash to the Holder of $0.125 for each Warrant Share by which the initial Applicable Number of Warrants Shares was reduced. 
5.No Fractional Shares or Scrip.  No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but in lieu of such fractional shares the Company shall make a cash payment therefor on the basis of the Exercise Price then in effect.
6.Cashless Exercise. [If at the time of any exercise of this Warrant (a) the Common Stock not listed on a Trading Market such that the Common Stock does not satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, or (b) a registration statement with respect to the Warrant Shares is not effective after the Effectiveness Deadline (and not during a permitted suspension in connection with a Suspension Event), then the Holder may, at its option, exercise the Warrant on a “cashless basis,” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption, for that number of shares of Common Stock equal to (i) the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants, multiplied by the excess of the Fair Market Value less the Exercise Price by (y) the Fair Market Value. For purposes of this Section 6, “Fair Market Value” shall mean the VWAP of the Common Stock as reported during the ten (10) Trading Day period ending on the Trading Day prior to the date that notice of exercise is received by the Warrant Agent from the holder of the Warrants or its securities broker or intermediary.  The date that notice of “cashless exercise” is received by the Warrant Agent shall be conclusively determined by the Warrant Agent. In connection with the “cashless exercise” of the Warrant, the Company shall, upon request, provide the Warrant Agent with an opinion of counsel for the Company (which shall be an outside law firm with securities law experience) stating that (i) the exercise of the Warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with this Section 6 is not required to be registered under the Securities Act and (ii) the shares of Common Stock issued upon such exercise shall be freely tradable under United States federal securities laws by anyone who is not an affiliate (as such term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act) of the Company and, accordingly, shall not be required to bear a restrictive 

legend.] / [Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Warrant shall not be exercisable on a “net exercise” or “cashless basis”.]3
7.Company Redemption.  
(a)In the event, for 20 Trading Days during any 30 consecutive Trading Days period, the VWAP for each of the 20 Trading Days exceeds $9.75 (subject to adjustment for forward and reverse stock splits and the like), the Company shall have the right to redeem this Warrant at a price of $0.10 per Warrant Share (the “Redemption Price”) upon written notice to the Holder as described below, provided there is an effective registration statement covering the issuance of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant, and a current prospectus relating thereto, available throughout the 30-day Redemption Period (as defined below). 
(b)If the Company elects to redeem the Warrants pursuant to Section 7(a), the Company shall fix a date for the redemption (the “Redemption Date”). Notice of redemption shall be mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid, by the Company not less than thirty (30) days prior to the Redemption Date (the “Redemption Period”) to the Holder at its last address as they shall appear on the registration books of the Company. Any notice mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given whether or not the Holder received such notice. 
(c)The Warrant may be exercised, for cash (or on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 6) at any time after notice of redemption shall have been given by the Company pursuant to Section 7(b) and prior to the Redemption Date. On and after the Redemption Date, the record holder of the Warrants shall have no further rights except to receive, upon surrender of the Warrants, the Redemption Price. 
8.Change of Control.  Upon the occurrence of any Change of Control (as hereinafter defined), the Successor Entity (as hereinafter defined) shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the occurrence or consummation of such Change of Control, each and every provision of this Warrant referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to each of the Company and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally), and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally with the Company, may exercise every right and power of the Company prior thereto and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities shall assume all of the obligations of the Company prior thereto under this Warrant with the same effect as if the Company and such Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally, had been named as the Company in this Warrant. In the event of a Change of Control, then, upon any subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Change of Control, the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration receivable as a result of such Change of Control by a holder of the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such Change of Control (without regard to any limitation in Section 3(d) on the exercise of this Warrant). For purposes of this Section 8, (1) “Change of Control” shall mean that (i) the Company shall, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions: (a) sell, license, assign, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of Company; (b) effect or consummate any reorganization, consolidation, merger or other transaction involving Company; (c) allow another Person to make a purchase, tender or exchange offer that is accepted by the holders of more than the 50% of the of the outstanding voting securities of the Company (not including any shares of voting securities held by the Person or Persons making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the Persons making or party to, such purchase, tender or exchange offer), or (d) consummate a stock purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with another Person whereby such other Person acquires more than the 50% of the outstanding of the voting securities of the Company (not including any shares of voting securities of the Company the held by the other Person or other Persons making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other Persons making or party to, such stock purchase agreement or other business combination), (e) reorganize, recapitalize or reclassify its Common Stock or (vi) allow any “person” or “group” (as these terms are used for purposes of Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) is or shall become the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), directly or indirectly, of 50% of the aggregate ordinary voting power represented by issued and outstanding Common Stock; and (2) “Successor Entity” means one or more Person or Persons (or, if so elected by the Holder, the Company) formed by, resulting from or surviving any Change of Control or one or more Person or Persons (or, if so elected by the Holder, the Company) with which such Change of Control shall have been entered into. 
9.Representations of the Company.  The Company represents that (i) all corporate actions on the part of the Company, its officers, directors and stockholders necessary for the sale and issuance of this Warrant have been taken; (ii) upon exercise of this Warrant, the Common Stock will be exempt from the registration requirements

The Holder shall not be entitled, as a warrant holder, to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of the Warrant Shares or any other securities of the Company which may at any time be issuable on the exercise hereof for any purpose, nor shall anything contained herein be construed to confer upon the Holder, as a warrant holder, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether upon any recapitalization, issuance of stock, reclassification of stock, change of par value, consolidation, merger, conveyance, or otherwise) or to receive notice of meetings, or to receive dividends or subscription rights or otherwise until this Warrant shall have been exercised and the Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise hereof shall have become deliverable, as provided herein.

The Company shall be under no obligation to take such action, other than a Required Action, and the Company shall have no liability whatsoever as a result of the non-issuance of such Warrant Shares as a result of not taking such action, other than a Required Action, except to refund to the Holder any consideration tendered in respect of the Exercise Price.

16.Warrant Agent.

19.Governing Law.  This Warrant shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of Delaware as applied to agreements entered into and to be performed entirely within Delaware.
20.Assignability and Binding Effect.  The Company and any Warrant Agent may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner of this Warrant, for the purpose of any exercise hereof, of any distribution to the holder of this Warrant, and for all other purposes.

DESCRIPTION
OF SECURITIES

  

The
following summary describes the material terms of the Company’s common stock and preferred stock. The description of common stock
and preferred stock is qualified by reference to our Articles of Incorporation, as amended and our Bylaws, which are incorporated by
reference as exhibits to the Annual Report on Form 10-K of which this exhibit is a part.

 

As
of the date of the Annual Report on Form 10-K of which this exhibit is a part, GZ6G Technologies Inc. (the “Company” or “we”
or “our”) has three classes of securities, its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, registered under Section 12 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and Special Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.004 and
Special 2018 Series B Preferred Stock, par value, $0.001; neither of the classes of Preferred Stock are registered under Section 12 of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

 

Common
Stock

 

Our
authorized capital stock includes 500,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $0.001 par value per Share. As of the filing date of this Form
10-K there are 25,188,742 shares of our Common Stock outstanding.

 

Voting

 

Our
Common Stockholders are entitled to one non-cumulative vote per share on all matters on which shareholders may vote. Holders of shares
of our Common Stock do not have cumulative voting rights, which means that the holders voting for the election of directors, may cast
such votes equal to the total number of shares owned by each shareholder for each of the duly nominated directors, if they so choose.

 

There
is no provision in our Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws that would delay, defer or prevent a change in control of our company. However,
there exists such provision in our charter that may make changes of control more difficult. Such provisions include the ability of our
Board of Directors to issue a series of preferred stock and the limited ability of stockholders to call a special meeting. Special meetings
of the shareholders may be called at any time by the President or by resolution of the Board of Directors, or by the President upon the
request in writing of one or more stockholders owning shares in the aggregate entitled to cast at least a majority of the votes at the
meeting. Business transacted at any special meeting of stockholders shall be limited to the purposes stated in the notice.

 

     

     

    

 

The
holders of our Common Stock have equal ratable rights to dividends from funds legally available if and when declared by our Board of
Directors and are entitled to share ratably in all of our assets available for distribution to holders of Common Stock upon liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of our affairs. Our Common Stock does not provide the right to preemptive, subscription or conversion rights
and there are no redemption or sinking fund provisions or rights.

 

Preferred
Stock

 

Our
Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of 10,000,000 shares of Special Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.004 per share,
of which 5,000,000 shares are issued and outstanding.  The Board of Directors is further authorized to issue 1 share of Special
2018 Series B Preferred Stock, par value $0.001, of which 1 share is issued and outstanding. Our Board of Directors is authorized to
determine or alter any or all of the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions granted to or imposed upon any wholly unissued
series of preferred stock and, within the limitations or restrictions stated in any resolution or resolutions of the Board of Directors
originally fixing the number of shares constituting any series, to increase or decrease (but not below the number of shares of any such
series then outstanding) the number of shares comprising any such series subsequent to the issue of shares of that series, to set the
designation of any series, and to provide for rights and terms of redemption, conversion, dividends, voting rights, and liquidation preferences
of the shares of any such series.
