FORM OF SENIOR SECURED CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE
​
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, TREES CORPORATION, a Colorado corporation (hereinafter  called  the  “Borrower”),  hereby  promises  to  pay  to  the  order  of TCM Tactical Opportunities Fund II LP, or its registered assigns (the “Holder”) the principal sum of $ 10,443,223.00 (TEN MILLION FOUR HUNDRED AND FOURTY THREE THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED AND TWENTY THREE DOLLARS WITH NO 0/100) (the “Principal Amount”), together with interest at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum on the aggregate unconverted and then outstanding Principal Amount of this Note, at maturity or upon acceleration or otherwise, as set forth herein (this “Note”).
​
This Note is one of a series of Notes issued pursuant to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement entered into by the Borrower and the Holder (the “Purchase Agreement”), and capitalized terms not defined herein will have the meanings set forth in the Purchase Agreement.
​
The maturity date of this Note shall be on that day that is forty-eight (48) months after the Issue Date (the “Maturity Date”), and is the date upon which the Principal Amount, as well as all accrued and unpaid interest and other fees, shall be due and payable.
​
Interest on the outstanding Principal Amount shall be paid quarterly in arrears. Interest will accrue for the first six months and then be payable on a current basis quarterly thereafter (i.e. months 9, 12, 15, etc.). The interest accrued over the first six months will be payable over the next four quarters in arrears (i.e. months 9, 12, 15, 18). Both the accrued interest and the current interest due on the Note will be payable in arrears. The accrued interest will earn an additional 1% per
​

1

​
​

month on its outstanding balance to be paid in arrears with other interest payments.
​
Any amount of principal or interest on this Note, which is not paid by the Maturity Date, shall bear interest at the rate of the lesser of (i) eighteen percent (18%) per annum or (ii) the
maximum amount allowed by law, from the due date thereof until the same is paid (“Default Interest”).
​
The Borrower shall have the right to prepay all or any portion of this Note.  The following procedure shall apply in connection with any such prepayment.  The Borrower shall first provide notice of its intention to prepay all or any portion of this Note (“Prepayment Notice”).  Within two (2) business days following delivery of the Prepayment Notice, the Borrower shall provide the “Requisite Information” as set forth in Exhibit B annexed hereto.  The Holder may elect to exercise its conversion right (as set forth in Article II below) within five (5) business days following the delivery of the Requisite Information.  In the event the Holder does not so exercise within such time period, the Borrower may proceed with the prepayment as specified in the Prepayment Notice.
All payments due hereunder (to the extent not converted into the Borrower’s common stock (the “Common Stock”) in accordance with the terms hereof) shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America. All payments shall be made at such address as the Holder shall hereafter give to the Borrower by written notice made in accordance with the provisions of this Note. Whenever any amount expressed to be due by the terms of this Note is due on any day which is not a business day, the same shall instead be due on the next succeeding day which is a business day and, in the case of any interest payment date which is not the date on which this Note is paid in full, the extension of the due date thereof shall not be taken into account for purposes of determining the amount of interest due on such date. As used in this Note, the term “business day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which commercial banks in the city of New York, New York are authorized or required by law or executive order to remain closed.
Upon the Issue Date, with respect only to the Holder who is also the Lead Investor, the Lead Investor shall be entitled to a cash fee equal to five percent (5%) of the Principal Amount (“Fee”), payable as follows:  (i) One-half of the Fee shall be payable by the Borrower to the Lead Investor in cash upon the Issue Date (or netted out of the Principal Amount upon the parties’ mutual consent); and (ii) the other one-half of the Fee (“Deferred Cash Fee”) may be deferred in whole or in part in the sole discretion of the Borrower, upon written notice to the Lead Investor at any time or from time to time following the Issue Date setting forth that portion of the Deferred Cash Fee to be so deferred, for a period not to exceed the five-month anniversary of the Issue Date (“Deferred Fee Due Date”).  Interest shall accrue on any outstanding amount of the Deferred Cash Fee at the rate of one percent (1%) per month.  Both the Deferred Cash Fee and any interest accrued thereon shall be due and payable in full no later than the Deferred Fee Due Date.
​
​

​
​

The following additional terms shall also apply to this Note:
​
ARTICLE I
SENIORITY
​
1.1Seniority. This Note shall rank senior in right of payment to all other “Borrower Debt” as further set forth in that certain Security Agreement between the Borrower and the Holders of even date herewith (the “Security Agreement”).  “Borrower Debt” means any indebtedness now or during the term hereof for borrowed money of any kind whether evidenced by notes, debentures, bonds or similar instruments, and any guaranty of any of the foregoing, excluding (i) any other Notes issued in the Offering pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, (ii)  accounts payable and trade debt and/or related cost, expenditures or payments incurred in the day-to-day operations of the business of the Borrower, (iii) operating, real estate and/or capex or similar leases, (iv) royalties existing as of the date hereof or ordinary course of business operating licenses and (vi) any other indebtedness for borrowed money incurred upon the written consent of the Holders of more than sixty-six percent (66%) of the then aggregate outstanding Principal Amount of the Notes and the Lead Investor.   Notwithstanding the above, the Borrower shall not make any interest payments with respect to Borrower Debt that is junior to the Purchaser’s right of payment hereunder without Purchaser’s prior written consent.
​
1.2Borrower Covenant. Borrower agrees that so long as any of the obligations evidenced hereby remain outstanding it will not become obligated or a guarantor with respect to any Borrower Debt that is not, by its terms, junior in right of payment to the obligations hereunder; provided however that nothing herein shall prohibit the Borrower from repaying or refinancing any or all of its Current Outstanding Notes as contemplated in the Purchase Agreement, so long as Borrower receives the prior written consent of the Lead Investor.
​
ARTICLE II
CONVERSION RIGHT
​
2.1Optional Conversion by the Holder.  Commencing as of the six-month anniversary of the Issue Date, the Holder shall have the right at any time prior to the Maturity Date, to convert up to a total of fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding and unpaid Principal Amount of this Note and unpaid accrued interest on this Note (such amount, the “Conversion Amount”) into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, as such Common Stock exists on the Issue Date, or any shares of capital stock or other securities of the Borrower into which such Common Stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified (“Conversion Shares”), at the Conversion Price set forth below. The number of Conversion Shares to be issued upon each conversion of this Note shall be determined by dividing the Conversion Amount by the applicable Conversion Price then in effect on the date specified in the notice of conversion, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Notice of Conversion”), delivered to the Borrower by the Holder in accordance with Section 2.3 below; provided that the Notice of Conversion is submitted by e-mail (or by other means resulting in, or reasonably expected to result in, notice) to the Borrower before 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time on such conversion date (the “Conversion Date”). The shares of Common Stock issuable
​

​
​

upon conversion of this Note may not be sold or transferred except in accordance with Section 2.4 below.
​
		2.2
	Conversion Price, Adjustments.

​
(a)Conversion Price. The “Conversion Price” per share is equal to $1.00, subject to adjustment as provided below.
​
(b)Authorized Shares. The Borrower covenants that during the period the Conversion rights exist, the Borrower will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of this Note.
​
(c)Adjustments for Subdivisions or Combinations of Common Stock. In the event the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided (by stock split, by payment of stock dividend or otherwise), into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such subdivision, be proportionately decreased such that the Holder of this Note shall be entitled to receive the number of shares of Common Stock or other capital stock of the Borrower which such Holder would have owned or been entitled to receive immediately following such action had this Note been converted immediately prior to the occurrence of such event. In the event the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be combined (by reclassification or otherwise) into a lesser number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such combination, be proportionately increased such that the Holder of this Note shall be entitled to receive the number of shares of Common Stock or other capital stock of the Borrower which such Holder would have owned or been entitled to receive immediately following such action had this Note been converted immediately prior to the occurrence of such event.
​
(d)Adjustments for Reorganization, Merger or Sale of Assets. If at any time while this Note, or any portion thereof, is outstanding there shall be (i) a reorganization (other than a combination, reclassification, exchange or subdivision of shares otherwise provided for in subsection (d) above), (ii) a merger or consolidation with or into another corporation in which the Borrower is not the surviving entity, or a reverse triangular merger in which the Borrower is the surviving entity but the shares of the Borrower’s capital stock outstanding immediately prior to the merger are converted by virtue of the merger into other property, whether in the form of securities, cash or otherwise, or (iii) a sale or transfer of the Borrower’s properties and assets as, or substantially as, an entirety to any other person, then, as a part of such reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale or transfer, lawful provision shall be made so that the holder of this Note shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of this Note the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the successor corporation resulting from such reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale or transfer that a holder of the shares deliverable upon conversion of this Note would have been entitled to receive in such reorganization, consolidation, merger, sale or transfer if this Note had been converted immediately before such reorganization, merger, consolidation,
​

4

​
​

sale or transfer, all subject to further adjustment as provided in this Section 2.2. The foregoing provisions of this Section 2.2(d) shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, consolidations, mergers, sales and transfers and to the stock or securities of any other corporation that are at the time receivable upon the conversion of this Note. If the per-share consideration payable to the Holder for shares in connection with any such transaction is in a form other than cash or marketable securities, then the value of such consideration shall be determined in good faith by the Borrower’s Board of Directors. In all events, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Borrower’s Board of Directors) shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Note with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder after the transaction, to the end that the provisions of this Note shall be applicable after that event, as near as reasonably may be, in relation to any shares or other property deliverable after that event upon conversion of this Note.
​
		2.3
	Mechanics of Conversion.

​
(a)Surrender of Note Upon Conversion. The Holder and the Borrower shall maintain records showing the updated current unpaid and unconverted Principal Amount of the Note. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Borrower unless the entire unpaid Principal Amount of this Note is so converted. The Holder and the Borrower shall maintain records showing the Principal Amount so converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Borrower, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon each such conversion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any portion of this Note is converted as aforesaid, the Holder may not transfer this Note unless the Holder first physically surrenders this Note to the Borrower, whereupon the Borrower will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the Holder a new Note of like tenor, registered as the Holder (upon payment by the Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may request, representing in the aggregate the remaining unpaid Principal Amount of this Note. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of a portion of this Note, the unpaid and unconverted Principal Amount of this Note represented by this Note may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
​
(b)Payment of Taxes. The Borrower shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of shares of Common Stock or other securities or property on conversion of this Note, and the Borrower shall not be required to issue or deliver any such shares or other securities or property unless and until the person or persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Borrower the amount of any such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Borrower that such tax has been paid.
​
(c)Delivery of Common Stock Upon Conversion. Upon receipt by the Borrower from the Holder of an e-mail (or other reasonable means of communication) of a Notice of Conversion meeting the requirements for conversion as provided in this Section 2.3 and Section 2.4 (and, solely in the case of conversion of the entire unpaid Principal Amount hereof, surrender
​

5

​
​

of this Note), the Borrower shall issue and deliver or cause to be issued and delivered to or upon the order of the Holder certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion in accordance with the terms hereof within fourteen (14) days.
​
2.4Concerning the Shares. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note may not be sold or transferred unless (i) such shares are sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or (ii) the Borrower or its transfer agent shall have been furnished with an opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope satisfactory to the Borrower) to the effect that the shares to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration or (iii) such shares are sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or a successor rule) (“Rule 144”) or (iv) such shares are transferred to an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 144) of the Borrower who agrees to sell or otherwise transfer the shares only in accordance with this Section 2.4 and who is an “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a) of the Securities Act). Except as otherwise provided (and subject to the removal provisions set forth below), until such time as the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note have been registered under the Securities Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, each certificate for shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note that has not been so included in an effective registration statement or that has not been sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption that permits removal of the legend, shall bear a legend substantially in the following form, as appropriate:
​
“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO: (1) RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (2) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE SATISFACTORY TO THE BORROWER, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.”
​
The legend set forth above shall be removed and the Borrower shall issue to the Holder a new certificate therefore free of any transfer legend if (i) the Borrower or its transfer agent shall have received an opinion of counsel, in form, substance and scope satisfactory to the Borrower, to the effect that a public sale or transfer of such Common Stock may be made without registration under the Securities Act, which opinion shall be accepted by the Borrower so that the
​

6

​
​

sale or transfer is effected or (ii) in the case of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, such security is registered for sale by the Holder under an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold.
​
2.5Status as Shareholder. Upon submission of a Notice of Conversion by a Holder, the Holder’s rights as a Holder of such converted portion of this Note shall cease and terminate, excepting only the right to receive certificates for such shares of Common Stock and to any remedies provided herein or otherwise available at law or in equity to such Holder because of a failure by the Borrower to comply with the terms of this Note.

TREES CORPORATION, a Colorado corporation (the “Company”), for value received, hereby certifies that TCM Tactical Opportunities Fund II LP, or its registered assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled to purchase from the Company, at the Exercise Price, 4,912,349 (FOUR MILLION NINE HUNDRED AND TWELVE THOUSAND THREE HUNDRED AND FORTY NINE) shares of the duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares the Company’s common stock with a par value of $0.001 (“Common Stock”), at any time or from time to time prior to 11:59 P.M., New York City time, on the Expiration Date, all subject to the terms, conditions and adjustments set forth below.
​
This Warrant is one of a series of warrants of like tenor that have been issued in connection with the Company’s private offering solely to accredited investors of senior secured convertible promissory notes and warrants in accordance with, and subject to, the terms and conditions described in the Securities Purchase Agreement between the Holder and the Company, as the same may be amended and supplemented from time to time (the “Purchase Agreement”). This Warrant is entitled to the benefits of the Purchase Agreement and is also subject to the obligations imposed by the Purchase Agreement, including as it relates to any restrictions on transfer of ownership of this Warrant.

2.Exercise of Warrant.
​
2.1Manner of Exercise; Payment of the Exercise Price.
​
(a)This Warrant may be exercised by the Holder hereof, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time prior to the Expiration Date, by surrendering to the Company at its principal office, this Warrant, with the form of Election to Purchase Shares attached hereto as Exhibit A, duly executed by the Holder and accompanied by payment of the Exercise Price for the number of shares of Common Stock specified in such form.
​
(b)Payment of the Exercise Price shall be made in United States currency by cash or delivery of a check payable to the order of the Company or by wire transfer to the Company.
​
2.2When 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 have been surrendered to, and the Exercise Price shall have been received by, the Company 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 shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record thereof for all purposes.
​

2.3Delivery of Stock Certificates, Etc.; Charges, Taxes and Expenses.
​

(a)As soon as practicable after each exercise of this Warrant, in whole or in part, the Company shall cause to be issued in such denominations as may be requested by the Holder in the Election to Purchase Shares, in the name of and delivered to the Holder or, subject to applicable securities laws, as the Holder may direct, the following:
​

(i)a certificate or certificates for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder shall be entitled upon such exercise plus, if applicable, in lieu of issuance of any fractional share to which the Holder would otherwise be entitled, a Company check pursuant to Section 7.5, and
​

(ii)in case such exercise is for less than all of the Warrant Shares a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor, covering the balance of the Warrant Shares.
​

(b)Issuance of Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Holder hereof for any issue tax or other incidental expense, in respect of the issuance of such certificates, all of which such taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company; provided, however, the Holder shall pay any applicable transfer or similar tax resulting from the issuance of Warrant Shares to any Person other than the Holder.
​

3.Adjustment to Exercise Price and Warrant Shares Upon Stock Dividends, Splits or Combination of Common Stock. In the event that the Company shall (a) issue additional shares of 

​

the Common Stock to those issued and outstanding as of the date hereof, either as a dividend or other distribution on the outstanding Common Stock, or otherwise (b) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock, or (c) combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, then, in each such event, the Exercise Price shall, simultaneously with the happening of such event, be adjusted by multiplying the then Exercise Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the product so obtained shall thereafter be the Exercise Price then in effect. The Exercise Price, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of any successive event or events described herein in this Section 3. The number of Warrant Shares that the Holder shall thereafter, be entitled to receive on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 2, shall be adjusted to a number determined by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 3) be issuable on such exercise by a fraction of which the numerator is the Exercise Price that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 3) be in effect, and the denominator is the Exercise Price in effect on the date of such exercise.
​
4.Acquisition of Company. In the event of a proposed Acquisition of the Company, the Company shall provide the Holder with all information with respect to the Acquisition that is otherwise provided to shareholders of the Company at such time and from time to time during the pendency of the Acquisition, including (but not limited to) the proposed closing date (the “Proposed Closing Date”) and the proposed price to be paid in the proposed Acquisition. The Company shall provide the Holder with such information no less than fifteen (15) days prior to the Proposed Closing Date. The Holder shall have the right to exercise this Warrant in accordance with Section 2 no less than five (5) days prior to the closing date with respect to the proposed Acquisition; if the Warrant is not exercised on or before the fifth (5th) day preceding the closing date with respect to the proposed Acquisition, then the Warrant shall expire upon the occurrence of the closing of the Acquisition.
​

5.Certificate as to Adjustments. In each case of any adjustment or readjustment pursuant to Section 3, the Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms of this Warrant and prepare a certificate, signed by the Chief Financial Officer, or Corporate Secretary of the Company, setting forth such adjustment or readjustment (including but not limited to the Exercise Price and number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder after giving effect to such adjustment or readjustment) and showing in reasonable detail the method of calculation thereof. Such certificate shall constitute an amendment to this Warrant and shall be delivered to the Holder in the manner provided in Section 8. Upon request of the Holder, the Company shall issue a new Warrant that reflects the terms of any such adjustment or readjustment reflected in any such certificate issued hereunder.
​
Regardless of any adjustment or readjustment in the Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares or other securities actually purchasable under the Warrant (or the issuance of any certificate with respect thereto pursuant to this Section 5), any Warrant may continue to express the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares purchasable under the Warrant as the price and number of shares were expressed on the Warrant when initially issued, subject to the Holder’s rights hereunder to exchange the Warrant for a new Warrant that reflects the terms of any such adjustment or readjustment.
​

​

6.Reservation of Stock, Etc. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery upon exercise of the Warrants, 100% of the number of Warrant Shares from time to time issuable upon exercise of all Warrants at the time outstanding. All Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of any Warrants shall be duly authorized and, when issued upon such exercise, shall be validly issued and, in the case of shares, fully paid and nonassessable with no liability on the part of the holders thereof, and, in the case of all securities, shall be free from all taxes, liens, security interests, encumbrances, preemptive rights and charges, except for the payment of applicable transfer or similar taxes by the Holder upon issuance to a Person other than the Holder. Subsequent to the Expiration Date, no shares of stock need be reserved in respect of any unexercised portion of this Warrant.
​
7.Registration and Transfer of Warrants, Etc.
​
7.1Warrant Register; Ownership of Warrants. Each Warrant issued by the Company shall be numbered and shall be registered in a warrant register (the “Warrant Register”) as it is issued and transferred, which Warrant Register shall be maintained by the Company at its principal office or, at the Company’s election and expense, by a warrant agent or the Company’s Transfer Agent. The Company shall be entitled to treat the registered Holder of any Warrant on the Warrant Register as the owner in fact thereof for all purposes and shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such Warrant on the part of any other Person, and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary, except that, if and when any Warrant is properly assigned in blank, the Company may (but shall not be obligated to) treat the bearer thereof as the owner of such Warrant for all purposes. A Warrant, if properly assigned, may be exercised by a new holder without a new Warrant first having been issued.
​

7.2Transfer of Warrants and Compliance with Securities Laws.
​

(a)Neither this Warrant nor any interest therein may be transferred or assigned in whole or in part without compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws by the Holder and the transferee or assignee thereof. Subject to such compliance, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable in whole or in part, without charge to the Holder hereof, upon surrender of this Warrant with a properly executed Form of Assignment, attached hereto as Exhibit B, at the principal office of the Company. Upon any partial transfer, the Company shall at its expense issue and deliver to the Holder a new Warrant of like tenor, in the name of the Holder, which shall be exercisable for such number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which rights under this Warrant were not so transferred and to the transferee a new Warrant of like tenor, in the name of the transferee, which shall be exercisable for such number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which rights under this Warrant were so transferred.
​

(b)The Holder, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledges that neither this Warrant nor the Warrant Shares have been registered under the Securities Act and represents and warrants to the Company that this Warrant is being acquired for investment and not for distribution or resale, solely for Holder’s own account and not as a nominee for any other person, and that Holder will not offer, sell, pledge or otherwise transfer this Warrant or any Warrant Shares except (i) in compliance with the requirements for an available exemption from the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws, or (ii) pursuant to an effective registration statement or qualification under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws.

​

​

7.3Registration Rights. The Holder shall be entitled to the rights and subject to the obligations set forth in Article IV of the Purchase Agreement.
​

7.4Replacement of Warrants. On receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction of this Warrant, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of any such mutilation, on surrender of such Warrant to the Company at its principal office and cancellation thereof, the Company at its expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.
​
7.5Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding any adjustment pursuant to Section 3, if the Common Stock shall be listed on a national securities exchange, the Company then shall not be required to issue fractions of shares upon exercise of this Warrant or to distribute certificates which evidence fractional shares. In lieu of fractional shares, the Company then shall make payment to the Holder of an amount in cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the closing bid price on the principal trading market of a share of Common Stock on the date of exercise of this Warrant.
​
8.Notices. Any notices, consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted to be given hereunder must be in writing and will be deemed to have been given (i) upon receipt, when delivered personally or via email to the email address designated below; (ii) three days after being sent by U.S. certified mail, return receipt requested; or (iii) one day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight delivery service, in each case properly addressed to the party to receive the same.

9.Amendments. This Warrant and any term hereof may not be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, except by written instrument duly executed by the party against which enforcement of such amendment, modification, supplement, termination or consent to departure is sought.

​

​
10.Descriptive Headings, Etc. The headings in this Warrant are for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning of terms contained herein. Unless the context of this Warrant otherwise requires: (a) words of any gender shall be deemed to include each other gender; (b) words using the singular or plural number shall also include the plural or singular number, respectively; (c) the words “hereof”, “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Warrant shall refer to this Warrant as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Warrant, and Section and paragraph references are to the Sections and paragraphs of this Warrant unless otherwise specified; (d) the word “including” and words of similar import when used in this Warrant shall mean “including, without limitation,” unless otherwise specified; (e) ”or” is not exclusive; and (f) provisions apply to successive events and transactions.
​

​

12.Judicial Proceedings. Any legal action, suit or proceeding brought against the Company with respect to this Warrant may be brought in any court located in Denver County, State of Colorado, and by execution and delivery of this Warrant, the Company hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any claim (by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise) of improper venue, that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of such court, that such courts are an inconvenient forum or that this Warrant or its subject matter may not be enforced in or by such court.
