 Common Stock Purchase Warrant 
  

  
 Article 1. General Provisions. 
  
 Section 1.01 This certifies that PET ZONE PRODUCTS LTD., a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Ohio
(the “Holder”), is entitled to purchase, at any time on or after January 4, 2006 (the “Effective Date”) and on or before January 3, 2011 (the “Expiration Date”), that number of
fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, without par value, of OURPET’S COMPANY, a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado (the “Company”), as set forth above, at the exercise price
of $0.335 U.S. per share subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided. 

 Article 2. Duration and Exercise of Warrants. 
  
 Section 2.01 Duration of Warrants. This Warrant may be exercised at any time on
or after the Effective Date and prior to the close of business on the Expiration Date. 
  
 Section 2.02 Terms of Exercise. This Warrant shall entitle the holder hereof to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock set forth in Article 1, subject to adjustment as herein provided (the
“Warrant Shares”), upon payment of the amount per share set forth in Section 1.01, subject to adjustment as herein provided (the “Exercise Price”). 

 
 Section 2.03 Exercise of Warrant. 
  
 (a) This warrant may be exercised in whole or in part by surrendering
it, together with a subscription in the form attached hereto duly executed, accompanied by a certified or official bank check (or such other form of payment as the Company may accept) in payment of the Exercise Price. Warrants may be surrendered at
the Company’s corporate offices indicated in Section 7.02 hereof, or as such corporate office may be relocated from time to time. 
  
 (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holder may, without the payment of cash or other consideration (other than the surrender of the right to
purchase certain Warrant Shares implicit in the following formula), exercise this Warrant for “Net Warrant Shares”. The Holder shall provide written notice to the Company specifying the gross number of Warrant Shares as to which this
Warrant is then exercised. The number of Net Warrant Shares deliverable upon such exercise will be determined by the following formula: Net Warrant Shares = [WS x (CP - EP)]/CP, where “WS” is the gross number of Warrant Shares as to which
this Warrant is to be exercised; “CP” is the average market price of the Common Stock on the ten (10) trading days preceding the date of the request to exercise this Warrant; and “EP” shall mean the then applicable Exercise
Price. 
  
 (c) This Warrant shall be exercisable during the
period provided in Section 2.01 at any time or in whole or from time to time in part. As soon as practicable after the Warrant has been so exercised, the Company shall issue and deliver or cause to be delivered to, or upon the order of,
the holder of the Warrant, in such name or names as may be directed by such holder, a certificate or certificates for the number of full Warrant Shares to which such holder is entitled and, if this Warrant shall not have been exercised in full, a
new Warrant for the number of shares of Common Stock as to which this Warrant shall not have been exercised, subject to the surrender of the right to purchase certain Warrant Shares implicit in the exercise of this Warrant under
Section 2.03(b). This Warrant, when so surrendered, shall be cancelled by or on behalf of the Company. 
  
 Section 2.04 Common Stock Issued Upon Exercise of Warrant. 
  
 (a) All Warrant Shares shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. The Company shall pay all documentary stamp taxes
attributable to the initial issuance of Warrant Shares. The Company shall not be required, however, to pay any tax imposed in connection with any transfer involved in the issue of the Warrant Shares in a name other than that of that holder of this
Warrant upon exercise. In such case, the Company shall not be required to issue any certificate for Warrant Shares until the person or persons requesting the same shall have paid to the Company the amount of any such tax or shall have established to
the Company’s satisfaction that the tax has been paid or that no tax is due. 

 (b) Irrespective of the date of issue of certificates for any Warrant Shares acquired upon
exercise of this Warrant, each person in whose name any certificate is issued shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares represented thereby on the date on which this Warrant was exercised and payment of the Exercise
Price was tendered as provided in Section 2.03 with respect to such Warrant Shares. 
  
 Article 3. Anti-Dilution Provisions. 
  
 Section 3.01 Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Warrant Shares. The Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Article 3. Upon each adjustment of the Exercise
Price, the holder of this Warrant shall be entitled to purchase, at the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment, the number of Warrant Shares, calculated to the nearest full share, obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of Warrant Shares purchasable pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the product thereof by the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment.

  
 Section 3.02 Stock Dividends. If the Company shall
declare a dividend or any other distribution upon any capital stock which is payable in shares of Common Stock, the Exercise Price shall be reduced to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such declaration multiplied by the then effective Exercise Price by (ii) the total Common Stock and all convertible securities issuable in payment of any dividend or other distribution upon the capital stock of the Company
shall be deemed to have been issued or sold without consideration. 
  
 Section
3.03 Stock Splits and Reverse Stock Splits. If the Company shall subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price shall be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Shares
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased. If the Company shall combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price shall be proportionately increased and the number of
Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately decreased. 
  
 Section 3.04 Reorganizations. If any capital reorganization or reclassification of the Company, or any consolidation or merger of the Company with another corporation, shall be affected in such a
way that the holders of the Common Stock shall be entitled to receive securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for shares of Common Stock, adequate provision shall be made, prior to and as a condition of such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation or merger whereby the holder of this Warrant shall have the right to receive, upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the Warrant Shares otherwise receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant,
such securities or assets as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Warrant Shares otherwise receivable had such reorganization, reclassification,
consolidation or merger not taken place. In any such case appropriate provision shall be made 

 with respect to the rights and interests of such holder so that the provisions of this Warrant shall be applicable with
respect to any securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall not affect any such consolidation or merger unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof the survivor or successor
corporation resulting from such consolidation or merger shall assume by written instrument delivered to the holder of this Warrant the obligation to deliver to such holder such securities or assets as such holder may be entitled to receive.

  
 Section 3.05 Form of Warrant. This Warrant need not be
changed because of any adjustment to the Exercise Price or any change in the amount or nature of securities issuable or deliverable pursuant to this Article 3. The Company may, however, in its discretion, at any time change the form of
Warrants to reflect any such change in the amount or nature of securities issuable or deliverable upon exercise, provided such change in form does not otherwise affect the substance thereof. 
  
 Article 4. Other Provisions for Protection of Warrantholders.

  
 Section 4.01 Reservation of Shares. The Company shall
at all times reserve and keep available such number of shares of its authorized but unissued Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to permit the exercise of all outstanding Warrants. If at any time the number of authorized but
unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient for such purpose, the Company will take such action as, in the opinion of its counsel, may be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be
sufficient for such purpose. 
  
 Section 4.02 Lost and Misplaced
Warrant Certificates. If any Warrant becomes lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed, the Company will, on such terms as to indemnify or otherwise as it may in its discretion impose, issue a new Warrant of like denomination, tenor and dates as
the Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed. Any such new Warrant shall constitute an original contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the allegedly lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed Warrant shall at any time be enforceable
by anyone. 
  
 Section 4.03 Enforcement of Warrant Rights.
All rights of action are vested in the respective holders of the Warrants. Any holder of any Warrant may, in his own behalf and for his own benefit, enforce, and may institute and maintain any suit, action or proceeding against the Company suitable
to enforce, or otherwise in respect of, his right to exercise his Warrant for the purchase of the number of Warrant Shares issuable or deliverable in exchange therefor. 
  
 Article 5. Transfer and Ownership of Warrants. 
  
 Section 5.01 Negotiability and Ownership. The Warrants have been, and, if the Warrants are exercised, the Warrant
Shares will be, acquired for the account of the holder for investment and not with a view to resale or further distribution thereof. This Warrant shall be transferable by the holder hereof only in compliance with applicable securities laws. Any
attempted transfer in contravention of this Section shall be null and void. Any such transferee may be required to execute an investment letter containing representations and warranties as to his or her investment intent, financial sophistication
and ability to bear the risk of any investment in the Warrants or the Warrant Shares and to satisfy the Company of the bona fide nature of such representations. 

 Section 5.02 Exchange of Warrants. At any time after the issuance and prior to expiration, this
Warrant may be surrendered at the corporate offices of the Company for exchange and, upon cancellation hereof, one or more new Warrants shall be issued as requested by the holder for the same aggregate number of shares. 
  
 Article 6. Miscellaneous Provisions. 
  
 Section 6.01 Closing of Books. The Company will at no time close its
transfer books against the transfer of any warrant or of any shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of any warrant in any manner which interferes with the timely exercise of this Warrant. 
  
 Section 6.02 Modification and Waiver. This Warrant and any provision
hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which enforcement of the same is sought. 
  
 Section 6.03 Descriptive Headings and Governing Law. The description headings of the several articles, sections and paragraphs of this Warrant are
inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a part of this Warrant. This Warrant shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the laws of the State of Ohio, without regard to
conflict of laws principles. 
  
 Section 6.04 Notices. Any
notice given pursuant to this Agreement shall be made in accordance with the terms of the notice provision set forth in Section 10.3 of the Asset Purchase Agreement between the Company and Holder dated January 3, 2006. 
  
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Warrant has been executed on behalf of the Company
on January 4, 2006.

	 	  	January 4, 2006
	 $250,000
	  	Cleveland, Ohio

  
 FOR VALUE
RECEIVED, the undersigned, OURPET’S COMPANY, a Colorado corporation (“Maker”), promises to pay to the order of PET ZONE PRODUCTS LTD., an Ohio limited liability company (“Holder”), the
principal sum of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($250,000), together with interest at the rate of seven and three-quarters percent (7.75%) per annum, in accordance with the following terms and conditions. This Subordinated
Promissory Note (this “Note”) is made pursuant to that certain Asset Purchase Agreement, of even date herewith, by and between Maker and Holder (the “Purchase Agreement”). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in
this Note shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Purchase Agreement. 
  
 1. Payment of Principal and Interest. Interest on this Note shall accrue from and including the date of issuance through and until the repayment of the principal amount of this Note and shall be computed
on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. The principal and interest on this Note shall be paid in twenty (20) equal quarterly installments in such amounts and upon such dates as set forth on Exhibit A attached
hereto, under which such payments shall commence and be due and payable on last business day of the third (3rd) month after the Closing (“First Installment Date”) and the remaining installments shall be due and payable on the last business day of each successive fiscal quarter. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions
of this Section 1, but subject to applicable law, any overdue principal of and overdue interest on this Note shall bear interest, payable on demand in immediately available funds, for each day from the date of payment thereof was due to
the date of actual payment, at a rate of eleven and three-quarters percent (11.75%) per annum (such sum being referred to as the “Default Rate”), and, upon and during the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined below),
this Note shall bear interest from the date of the occurrence of such Event of Default until such Event of Default is cured or waived, payable on demand in immediately available funds, at a rate equal to the Default Rate. In the event that any
interest rate provided in this Section 1, shall be determined to be unlawful, such interest rate shall be computed at the highest rate permitted by applicable law. Any payment by Maker of any interest amount in excess of that permitted
by law shall be considered a mistake, with the excess being applied to the principal amount of this Note without prepayment premium or penalty; if no such principal amount is outstanding, such excess shall be returned to Maker. 
  
 2. Prepayment. Maker may, at any time or from time to time,
prepay all or any part of the principal amount due hereunder without any premium or penalty whatsoever. 

 3. Place of Payment. All payments on or in respect of this Note shall be made to Holder at
the address set forth in Section 8 of this Note, or, at the option of Holder, at such other place as Holder may, at any time or from time to time, designate to Maker in writing. 
  
 4. Events of Default and Remedies. 
  
 (a) The occurrence and continuance of the following events shall be
considered events of default under this Note (each an “Event of Default”): (i) any failure of Maker to pay any principal or interest on this Note when due or within five (5) business days thereof; (ii) there shall
been filed or commenced against Maker, an involuntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect or an action shall have been commenced to appoint a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian,
trustee or similar official of Maker or for any substantial part of Maker’s property or assets or for the winding-up or liquidation of Maker’s affairs and such action or proceeding shall not have been dismissed within sixty (60) days;
(iii) Maker shall commence a voluntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereinafter in effect, or shall consent to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee,
custodian or other similar official of Maker or of any substantial part of Maker’s property or assets, or shall make any general assignment of the benefit of creditors, or shall take any action in furtherance of any of the foregoing; or
(iv) Maker shall be in material default of any other term and/or condition of this Note, and such default shall remain uncured for thirty (30) days following notice of such default by Holder. 
  
 (b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, all of the principal and
interest due or to become due under this Note shall become at once due and payable at the option of Holder without notice, demand, presentment or dishonor, which Maker hereby waives. 
  
 (c) Maker hereby irrevocably waives all right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim arising out of or
relating to this Note and, upon any Event of Default, agrees to pay Holder’s costs of collection including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, paralegals’ fees and expenses. 
  
 5. Subordination. Notwithstanding anything in this Note or
under any other agreement to the contrary, the obligations of Maker in respect of this Note, including, without limitation, Maker’s obligations of payment with respect to principal and interest, will be subordinate and junior in right of
payment to any and all existing and future superior indebtedness, including, without limitation, all of Maker’s existing and future indebtedness to First Merit Bank, N.A. (or any successor lender) and Maker’s existing indebtedness to the
U.S. Small Business Administration (collectively, “Superior Indebtedness”); provided that regularly scheduled payments of principal and interest hereunder shall be permitted by Maker’s lenders at all times other than
during the continuation of a payment default under the Superior Indebtedness. Any delay in any payment under this Note resulting from the restrictions set forth in this Section shall not result in a default hereunder, and Holder agrees not to seek
any remedies against Maker or otherwise with respect to Maker’s failure to pay to the extent such failure to pay is as a result of such restrictions. 
  

 2 

 6. Amendment and Waiver. No modification or amendment of this Note shall be valid unless
made in writing and signed by the parties hereto. The failure of Holder to exercise any of its rights hereunder shall constitute a waiver of the same and of any other right in that or any subsequent instance. No extension of time for payment of all
or part of the amount owed under this Note at any time shall affect the liability of the Maker. 
  
 7. Assignability. Holder may assign its rights under this Note to an affiliated entity(ies) (including, without limitation, Holder’s
members) without the consent of Maker; provided that any subsequent Holder shall be subject to the terms hereof including, without limitation, the subordination provisions set forth in Section 5. Maker may not assign its duties
and responsibilities pursuant to this Note without the prior written consent of Holder. 
  
 8. Notices. All payments, notices, demands or other communications required or permitted to be given or made hereunder shall be in writing and (i) delivered personally, or (ii) sent by
pre-paid, first class, certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, or (iii) by priority overnight national express courier service, or (iv) by facsimile transmission (followed by a hard copy by U.S. mail or priority overnight
delivery as aforesaid), to the intended recipient thereof at its address or facsimile number set forth below:

jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Note. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Note shall be construed as if drafted jointly by Maker and Holder, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise

 13. Remedies. No remedy herein conferred upon Holder, or otherwise available to Holder at law or in equity, is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy and each and every such remedy shall be
cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise. No delay or omission on the part of Holder in exercising any right under this Note shall operate
as a waiver of such right or of any other right of Holder, nor shall any delay, omission or waiver on any one occasion be deemed a bar to or waiver of the same or any other right on any future occasion. No course of dealing between Maker and Holder
or any delay on the part of Holder in exercising any rights hereunder shall operate as a waiver of any right.
