3.1.

	
Reservation of Shares. The Company hereby agrees that, at all times prior to the expiration or exercise of this Warrant, it will maintain and reserve, free from pre-emptive or similar rights, such number of authorized but unissued shares so that this Warrant may be exercised without additional authorization of shares.

(a)

	
Bonus Shares. In the event that during the Warrant Period the Company shall distribute a non-cash dividend or shares pursuant to a reclassification of its share capital, to all of the holders of shares of the Company (i.e., bonus shares), then this Warrant shall represent the right to acquire, in addition to the number of Warrant Shares indicated in the caption of this Warrant, the amount of such bonus shares that are distributed to persons holding the class of share capital for which the Warrant is exerciseable and/or to receive the stock dividends which are distributed to persons holding the class of share capital for which the Warrant is exerciseable, without payment of any additional consideration therefor, to which the Holder would have been entitled had this Warrant been exercised prior to the distribution of the stock dividends or the bonus shares.

 

	
  

	
(b)

	
Consolidation and Division. In the event that during the Warrant Period the Company consolidates its share capital into shares of greater par value, or subdivides them into shares of lesser par value, then the number of Warrant Shares to be allotted on exercise of this Warrant after such consolidation or subdivision shall be reduced or increased accordingly, as the case may be, and in each case the Exercise Price shall be adjusted appropriately such that the aggregate consideration hereunder to the Company shall not change.

 

	
  

	
(c)

	
Capital Reorganization. In the event that during the Warrant Period a reorganization of the share capital of the Company is effected (other than subdivision, combination or reclassification provided for elsewhere in this Section 4) and the Preferred D1 Shares are exchanged for other securities of the Company, then, as part of such reorganization, provision shall be made so that the Holder shall be entitled to purchase upon exercise of this Warrant such kind and number of shares or other securities of the Company to which the Holder would have been entitled had this Warrant been exercised without taking into effect such reorganization.

 

	
4.2.

	
Whenever an adjustment is effected hereunder, the Company shall promptly compute such adjustment and deliver to the Holder a certificate setting forth the number of Warrant Shares (or any other securities) for which this Warrant is exercisable and the Exercise Price as a result of such adjustment, a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment and the computation thereof and when such adjustment has or will become effective.

 

	
5.

	
NOTICE OF CERTAIN EVENTS

 

	
5.1.

	
If at any time during the Warrant Period, any of the Notice Events set forth in Section 5.2 below shall occur, then, in any one or more of such events, the Company shall deliver to the Holder written notice thereof, including the date on which (a) a record shall be taken in connection with such event (if applicable); and (b) the consummation date of such event. Such written notice shall be delivered to the Holder at least (if possible under the circumstances) thirty (30) days prior to the consummation of the applicable event and not less than thirty (30) days prior to the record date in respect thereto.
