10.4 

 

FIRST
AMENDMENT (this “Amendment”) dated as of December 11, 2022 to the AMENDED AND RESTATED LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY AGREEMENT
OF WEBER HOLDCO LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”).

 

WHEREAS, the Company
has been heretofore formed as a limited liability company under the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act (6 Del. C. §18-101,
et seq.) pursuant to a certificate of formation which was executed and filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware
on April 27, 2021;

 

WHEREAS, the Company
is currently governed by that certain Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of the Company, dated as of August 9,
2021 (the “LLC Agreement”);

 

WHEREAS,
concurrently herewith, Weber Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Pubco”), has entered into that certain Agreement and Plan
of Merger, dated as of the date hereof, by and among Pubco, Ribeye Parent, LLC and Ribeye Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”),
whereby Merger Sub shall merge with and into Pubco;

 

WHEREAS, pursuant
to Section 13.10(a) of the LLC Agreement, (a) the LLC Agreement may be amended or modified by a written instrument signed by each of
the Members who together own a majority in interest of the Units then outstanding (the “Requisite Parties”) and (b)
BDT WSP Holdings, LLC and Byron D. Trott are the Requisite Parties as of the date hereof; and

 

WHEREAS, the Requisite
Parties wish to amend and modify the LLC Agreement as set forth herein.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, the
Requisite Parties agree as follows:

 

A.           AMENDMENTS

 

1.     Definitions.
Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the LLC Agreement.

 

2.     Redemption
Right of a Member. The first sentence of Section 10.01(a) of the LLC Agreement is hereby amended and restated as follows:

 

“(a)
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the Agreement but subject to the terms of Section 10.02, Section 10.05(d), Section 10.09,
Section 10.11 and/or any other agreement between such Member and the Company, Pubco or any of their controlled Affiliates, and without
the need for approval by the Managing Member or consent by any other Members, each Member (other than the Pubco Members) shall be entitled
to cause the Company to redeem (a “Redemption,” and, together with a Direct Exchange, as defined below, an “Exchange”)
all or any portion of its Units (the “Redemption Right”)

 

    	 	 

     

    

at
any time following the expiration of any contractual lock-up period relating to the shares of Pubco that may be applicable to such Member;
provided that the Managing Member may force a Member to exercise its Redemption Right at any time following the expiration of such contractual
lock-up period if such member holds fewer than 100,000 Common Units.”

 

3.     Tender
Offers and Other Events with Respect to Pubco. The following is hereby added to Section 10.05 of the LLC Agreement as a new clause
(d):

 

“(d) Notwithstanding
any other provision in this Agreement (including Section 10.05(a)), the merger of Ribeye Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”)
with and into Pubco (the “Merger”) pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 11,
2022 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Pubco, Ribeye Parent, LLC and Merger Sub, shall not be a Pubco Offer for
any purpose under this Agreement and from and after the execution of the Merger Agreement until the earlier of (i) the termination of
the Merger Agreement pursuant to its terms and (ii) the consummation of the Merger, no Member shall be entitled to exercise any Redemption
Right under Section 10.01 (including following a Profits Unit Exchange) except as provided in this Section 10.05(d). Each holder of Common
Units shall be permitted to participate in the Merger (including following a Profits Unit Exchange) in accordance with the terms and
subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement by delivery of a notice of participation (a “Participation Notice”)
on or prior to the date that is 11 days after Pubco first files the preliminary Information Statement (as defined in the Merger Agreement)
with the SEC. Each Participation Notice shall be effective immediately prior to the consummation of the Merger (and, for the avoidance
of doubt, shall be contingent upon the consummation of the Merger and not be effective if the Merger is not consummated) and shall set
forth the number of Common Units in respect of which the holder wishes to participate in the Merger. Immediately prior to the consummation
of the Merger, the Company shall redeem from each holder of Common Units who timely delivered a Participation Notice the number of Common
Units set forth therein in exchange for an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock and, upon the consummation of the Merger, such
shares of Class A Common Stock will be converted into a right to receive Merger Consideration (as defined in the Merger Agreement)
pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement.”

 

B.            MISCELLANEOUS

 

1.     Binding
Effect. Upon the execution and delivery of this Amendment by the Requisite Parties, this Amendment shall become effective as of the
date hereof. This Amendment shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable against, the Members and their respective
successors and assigns.

 

2.     Counterparts.
This Amendment may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures
thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. Until and unless each Requisite Party has received a counterpart hereof signed by the
other Requisite Party, this Amendment shall have no effect and no Requisite

 

    	 	 

     

    

Party
shall have any right or obligation hereunder (whether by virtue of any other oral or written agreement or other communication).

 

3.    Severability.
If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Amendment is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental
Authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Amendment
shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance
of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such a determination, the
Requisite Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Amendment so as to effect the original intent of the Requisite Parties
as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally contemplated
to the fullest extent possible.

 

4.    Governing
Law. This Amendment shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the
conflicts of law rules of such State that would result in the application of the laws of any other State.

  Dated as of

     December 9, 2022

  To the Purchasers signatory hereto:

  Ladies and Gentlemen:

  Kingstone
      Companies, Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of Delaware (the “Company”), agrees with the several owners of the Company’s
    outstanding 5.50% Senior Notes due 2022 (the “Existing Notes”) party hereto (the “Purchasers”), on the date specified above (the “Signing Date”) as follows:

  SECTION 1. Authorization of Notes and Warrants.

  Section 1.1. Authorization of
        Notes.   The Company has authorized the issuance and sale of $19,950,000 aggregate principal amount of 12.00% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “Notes”)
      pursuant to this Note and Warrant Exchange Agreement (this “Agreement”). The Notes will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as
      amended (the “Securities Act”). The Notes shall be substantially in the form set out in Exhibit 1.  Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Schedule A; references to an “Annex,” a
      “Schedule” or an “Exhibit” are, unless otherwise specified, to an Annex, a Schedule or an Exhibit attached to this Agreement.

  Section 1.2. Authorization of
        Warrants.   The Company has authorized the issuance and sale of an aggregate of 969,525 warrants pursuant to this Agreement, each warrant entitling the
      holder thereof to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Common Stock”), at an exercise price equal to
      $1.00 per share (such warrants, the “Warrants”), on the terms set forth in the Form of Warrant Certificate attached hereto as Exhibit 2.

  SECTION 2. The Exchange.

  Section 2.1. The Exchange.

  (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4 of this Agreement, at the Closing provided for in Section 3, each Purchaser
      agrees, severally and not jointly, to sell and deliver to the Company for cancellation the aggregate principal amount of Existing Notes set forth in the Purchaser Schedule (as defined below) of such Purchaser (the “Tender Amount”), and in exchange therefor (the “Exchange”), for every
      $1,000 principal amount of Existing Notes sold and delivered by each Purchaser to the Company pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall issue, sell and deliver to such Purchaser (A) $926.10 aggregate principal amount of Notes, (B) 45 Warrants,
      (C) $73.90 in cash, plus (D) accrued and unpaid interest on the Existing Notes from June 30, 2022 (the most recent interest payment date for the
      Existing Notes) to, but not including, the Closing Date (as defined below) in the amount of approximately $25.21 in cash, subject to adjustment pursuant to the immediately succeeding sentence, and as set forth in the Confirmation Email (as defined
      below) (collectively, the “Exchange Consideration”). The aggregate principal amount of Notes to be issued to each Purchaser in the Exchange
      Consideration shall be rounded down to the nearest multiple of $1,000, and the amount of cash adjusted upward dollar-for-dollar accordingly, such that the sum of the immediately preceding clause (A) (the aggregate principal of Notes issued to each
      Purchaser) and clause (C) (the amount of cash delivered to such Purchaser) shall equal the aggregate principal amount of Existing Notes sold and delivered by such Purchaser to the Company pursuant to this Agreement.  Prior to the Closing Date, the
      Company will send, or cause its agent to send, to each Purchaser an email confirming (the “Confirmation Email”) the (X) the principal amount of
      Existing Notes to be sold and delivered by such Purchaser and (Y) the amount of each component of Exchange Consideration such Purchaser shall receive from the Company, including (I) the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be received, (II) the
      total number of Warrants to be received, and (III) the total amount of cash to be received, which amount will be the sum of (i) the total cash portion of the Exchange Consideration described in clause (C) above (subject to rounding as described
      above), plus (ii) the aggregate amount of accrued and unpaid interest on the Existing Notes sold by such Purchaser in the Exchange from June 30, 2022 to, but not including, the Closing Date.

  (b) The obligations of each Purchaser hereunder are several and not joint obligations and no Purchaser shall have any obligation or liability to any
      Person for the performance or nonperformance by any other Purchaser hereunder.

  Section 2.2. Tax Treatment. 

      The parties hereto agree to treat the Notes as indebtedness of the Company for U.S. federal income tax purposes.  Each Purchaser and the Company hereby acknowledge and agree (i) to treat the Notes and the Warrants as part of an “investment unit”
      within the meaning of Section 1273(c)(2) of the Code and, correspondingly, the Notes as having been issued with original issue discount for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent of the fair market value of the Warrants at the time of the
      issuance thereof, and (ii) that the aggregate fair market value of the Warrants will be based on a valuation as of the Closing Date, which valuation shall be completed by the Company within thirty (30) calendar days of the Closing Date and that such
      amount will be allocable ratably to the Warrants pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1273-2(h), with the balance of the issue price of the investment unit allocable to the Notes.  The Purchasers and the Company shall prepare their respective
      U.S. federal and applicable state and local income tax returns in a manner consistent with the foregoing treatment.

  Section 2.3 Purchaser Schedule. 
      Prior to the Closing Date, each Purchaser shall complete and return to the Company the form attached hereto as Schedule B (the “Purchaser Schedule”).

  

  

  SECTION 3. Closing.

  Section 3.1. Closing.

  (a) Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section

  SECTION 7. TERMS AND
        CONDITIONS APPLICABLE TO GLOBAL NOTES.

  Section 7.1.   Global Notes.

  (a) Provided that applicable depository eligibility requirements are met, upon the written election of any Holder that is a Qualified Institutional
      Buyer, as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Notes owned by such Holders to be issued in the form of one or more Global Notes registered in the name of The Depository
      Trust Company or another organization registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act, and designated as Depositary by the Company or any successor thereto (the “Depositary”) or a nominee thereof and delivered to such Depositary or a nominee thereof.

  (b) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, no Global Note may be exchanged in whole or in part for Notes registered, and no transfer of a Global
      Note in whole or in part may be registered, in the name of any person other than the Depositary for such Global Note or a nominee thereof unless (i) such Depositary advises the Company in writing that such Depositary is no longer willing or able to
      properly discharge its responsibilities as Depositary with respect to such Global Note, and no qualified successor is appointed by the Company within ninety (90) days of receipt by the Company of such notice, (ii) such Depositary ceases to be a
      clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and no successor is appointed by the Company within ninety (90) days after obtaining knowledge of such event, (iii) the Company elects to terminate the book-entry system through the Depositary or (iv)
      an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.  Upon the occurrence of any event specified in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of this Section 7(b),
      the Company or its agent shall notify the Depositary and instruct the Depositary to notify all owners of beneficial interests in such Global Note of the occurrence of such event and of the availability of Notes to such owners of beneficial interests
      requesting the same.

  (c) If any Global Note is to be exchanged for other Notes or canceled in part, or if another Note is to be exchanged in whole or in part for a
      beneficial interest in any Global Note, then either (i) such Global Note shall be so surrendered for exchange or cancellation as provided in this Section 7 or
      (ii) the principal amount thereof shall be reduced or increased by an amount equal to the portion thereof to be so exchanged or canceled, or equal to the principal amount of such other Note to be so exchanged for a beneficial interest therein, as the
      case may be, by means of an appropriate adjustment made on the records of the Company or, if applicable, the Company’s registrar and transfer agent (“Registrar”),

      whereupon the Company or, if applicable, the Registrar, in accordance with the applicable rules and procedures of the Depositary (“Applicable Depositary
        Procedures”), shall instruct the Depositary or its authorized representative to make a corresponding adjustment to its records.  Upon any such surrender or adjustment of a Global Note by the Depositary, accompanied by registration
      instructions, the Company shall execute and deliver any Notes issuable in exchange for such Global Note (or any portion thereof) in accordance with the instructions of the Depositary.

  (d) Every Note executed and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion thereof shall be
      executed and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note, unless such Note is registered in the name of a person other than the Depositary for such Global Note or a nominee thereof.

  (e) The Depositary or its nominee, as the registered owner of a Global Note, shall be the holder of such Global Note for all purposes under this Note,
      and owners of beneficial interests in a Global Note shall hold such interests pursuant to Applicable Depositary Procedures. Accordingly, any such owner’s beneficial interest in a Global Note shall be shown only on, and the transfer of such interest
      shall be effected only through, records maintained by the Depositary or its nominee or its Depositary participants.  If applicable, the Registrar shall be entitled to deal with the Depositary for all purposes relating to a Global Note (including the
      payment of principal and interest thereon and the giving of instructions or directions by owners of beneficial interests therein and the giving of notices) as the sole holder of the Note and shall have no obligations to the owners of beneficial
      interests therein.  The Registrar shall have no liability in respect of any transfers undertaken by the Depositary.

  (f) The rights of owners of beneficial interests in a Global Note shall be exercised only through the Depositary and shall be limited to those
      established by law and agreements between such owners and the Depositary and/or its participants.

  (g) No holder of any beneficial interest in any Global Note held on its behalf by a Depositary shall have any rights with respect to such Global Note,
      and such Depositary may be treated by the Company and any agent of the Company as the owner of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever.  Neither the Company nor any agent of the Company will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of
      the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Global Note or maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein
      shall prevent the Company or any agent of the Company from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by a Depositary or impair, as between a Depositary and such holders of beneficial interests, the operation
      of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of the Depositary (or its nominee) as holder of any Note.

  SECTION 8. Offers to
        Purchase; Redemptions; Payment of the Notes.

  Section 8.1. Offers to Repurchase.

  (a)  Asset Sale Offer to Repurchase

  (i) When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $5,000,000 (the “Excess Proceeds Threshold”), within thirty days thereof, the Company will make an offer to all Holders to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds (an
      “Asset Sale Offer”).  The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100.0% of the principal amount of the Notes purchased plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase (subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant regular record date to receive
      interest due on the relevant interest payment date that is on or prior to the applicable date of repurchase), and will be payable in cash.  If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company may use those Excess
      Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Agreement.  If the aggregate principal amount of Notes tendered into such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Company will determine the amount of the Notes to be
      purchased on a pro rata basis or as nearly a pro

        rata basis as is practicable. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero.

  (ii) Within 30 days following the date upon which the amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds the Excess Proceeds Threshold, the Company must
      send a notice to each Holder, which notice shall govern the terms of the Asset Sale Offer.  Such notice shall state, among other things, the purchase date, which must be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is
      mailed (or, in the case of Notes in global form, delivered), other than as may be required by law (the “Asset Sale Offer Payment Date”).  Holders
      electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer will be required to surrender the Note to the Company at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third Business Day prior to the Asset Sale Offer
      Payment Date.  Holders will be entitled to withdraw their tendered Notes and their election to require the Company to purchase such Notes; provided that

      the Company receives, not later than the close of business on the last day of the offer period, a facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder of the Notes, the principal amount of the Notes tendered for purchase, and a
      statement that such Holder is withdrawing his tendered Notes and his election to have such Notes purchased.

  (iii) The Company will not be required to make an Asset Sale if an unconditional and irrevocable notice of redemption as to

      redemption date.  Each such notice shall specify such redemption date, the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed on such date, the principal amount of each Note held by such Holder to be redeemed (determined in accordance with Section 8.3), and the redemption price with respect to such principal amount being redeemed and, in the case of a mandatory redemption pursuant to Section 8.2(a), shall be accompanied by a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer of the Company setting forth the calculation of Excess Cash Flow.  Any
      redemption notice for any optional redemption pursuant to this Section 8.2 may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent,

  Section 8.3. Allocation of
        Partial Redemptions.  In the case of each partial redemption of the Notes pursuant to Section 8.2(b), the principal amount of the Notes to be
      redeemed shall be allocated among all of the Notes pro rata or, with respect to any Global Notes, otherwise in accordance with DTC’s Applicable Depositary Procedures.

  Section 8.4. Surrender, Etc.. In the case of each redemption of
      Notes pursuant to Section 8.2, subject to the last sentence of Section 8.2(c)
      and the ability of the Company to revoke a redemption notice at any time prior to the redemption date with respect to any optional redemption pursuant to Section 8.2(b),

      redemption premium as of the date of such redemption, if any.  From and after such date, unless the Company shall have revoked the redemption notice or shall have failed to pay such redemption price, interest on such principal amount shall cease to
      accrue.  Any Note redeemed in full or in part shall be surrendered to the Company on or prior to the redemption date and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no Note shall be issued in lieu of any redeemed principal amount of any Note and, in the
      case of Notes redeemed in part, the Company shall issue a new Note to the holder thereof for the unredeemed portion of the Note surrendered.

  

  

  Section 8.5. Stated Maturity;
        Interest.  The full principal balance outstanding on the Notes shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date.  At all times that there is a principal balance outstanding on the Notes, interest shall accrue and be due and payable from time to

      non-compliance with such Laws or the failure to obtain or maintain in effect such licenses, certificates, permits, franchises and other governmental authorizations could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material
      Adverse Effect.

      Person or any Person that is the target of sanctions imposed by the United Nations or by the European Union, or (b) directly or indirectly to have any investment in or engage in any dealing or transaction with any Person if such investment, dealing

      Sanctions, or (c) to engage, nor shall any Affiliate of either engage, in any activity that could subject such Person or any holder to sanctions under CISADA or any similar law or regulation with respect to Iran or any other country that is subject

      any Subsidiary from (i) selling or otherwise disposing of any of its properties or (ii) discontinuing the operation and the maintenance of any of its properties if such discontinuance is desirable in the conduct of its business and the Company has
      concluded that such discontinuance could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

        Claims. The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, file all material tax returns required to be filed in any jurisdiction and to pay and discharge all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns and all other taxes,
      assessments, governmental charges, or levies imposed on them or any of their properties, assets, income or franchises, in each case to the extent such taxes and assessments have become due and payable and before they have become delinquent and all
      claims for which sums have become due and payable that have or might become a Lien on properties or assets of the Company or any Subsidiary, provided that neither the Company nor any Subsidiary need pay any such tax, or assessment, charge, levy or
      claim if (i) the amount, applicability or validity thereof is contested by the Company or such Subsidiary on a timely basis in good faith and in appropriate proceedings, and the Company or a Subsidiary has established adequate reserves therefor in
      accordance with GAAP on the books of the Company or such Subsidiary or (ii) the nonpayment of all such taxes, assessments, charges, levies and claims in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

      existence, right or franchise would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

  Section 9.8 Board Observer/Governance.

  (a) Governance.  The Company (i) shall ensure
      that it operates in accordance with the terms of its governing documents and (ii) shall not permit the amendment or other modification of the governing documents of the Company and its Subsidiaries in a manner that is materially adverse to the
      Holders without the prior written consent of the Required Holders.

  (b) Board Observer.   Until all of the Notes
      are no longer outstanding, the holders of the Notes shall be permitted to appoint one board observer to the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board
        Observer”), with such Board Observer to be determined by the Required Holders and subject to the approval of the Company (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld). The Required Holders shall be permitted to remove any Board Observer
      and/or appoint any successor Board Observer as they shall elect in their sole discretion from time to time.  The Board Observer shall be permitted to attend and participate in all meetings of the Board of Directors (but shall not have voting rights),
      and shall receive all information, notices, reports, written consents, meeting minutes and other materials (the “Board Information”) provided to
      the members of the Board of Directors of the Company, in each case, substantially simultaneously with, and substantially in the same manner and to the same extent as, such Board Information is given to the members of the Board of Directors of the
      Company. Notices of any meeting of the Board of Directors shall be distributed to the Board Observer at least forty-eight hours in advance of any meeting of the Board of Directors, provided that in the event the Company determines, in good faith, it
      is advisable to hold a meeting on less than 48 hours advance notice, the Board Observer shall receive notice no later than the notice delivered to the Board of Directors.  The Company shall promptly reimburse the reasonable and documented expenses of
      the Board Observer in connection with attending any meeting of the Board of Directors. 

  (c) Right to Nominate One Director.  No later
      than six (6) months after the Closing Date, the Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to appoint one nominee selected by the Required Holders to the Board of Directors (“Noteholder Director”).  Upon the appointment of the Noteholder Director to the Board, the Holders’ right to appoint a Board Observer pursuant to Section 9.8(b) shall terminate.   Once the Notes are no longer outstanding, the Noteholder Director’s tenure on the Board of Directors shall cease and the right of the Holders to nominate one director to the
      Board of Directors pursuant to this Section 9.8(c) shall terminate.

  (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board Observer and the Noteholder Director shall not be entitled to attend or participate in any relevant
      portions of meetings or receive any relevant portions of Board Information in any instance if, but solely to the extent that, the Chairperson of the Board of Directors or the applicable Board committee reasonably determines that discussions of a
      specified matter in the presence of, or the sending of such Board Information to, the Board Observer, in each case, (x) will result, based on advice from counsel to the Company (including in-house counsel), in the loss of attorney-client privilege
      for the Company with respect to such specified matter or (y) would prejudice the Company’s negotiating position on matters in connection with the Notes or the Warrants as a result of the existence of a conflict of interest with respect to the
      applicable matter.  The Company shall make reasonable efforts to notify the Board Observer or the Noteholder Director in advance if the Company anticipates the Board Observer or the Noteholder Director will be excluded from a portion of a meeting.

  (e) Confidentiality.  Before attending any
      meetings of the Board of Directors or receiving any Board Information, the Board Observer and the Noteholder Director shall be required to enter into a confidentiality agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Company.  Before communicating
      any material non-public information regarding the Company obtained from any Board meeting or Board Information with any Holder of Notes, the Board Observer or Noteholder Director shall ensure that such Holder has signed a confidentiality agreement
      with the Company in form and substance satisfactory to the Company.

  Section 9.9 Priority
        Obligations. The Company will ensure that its payment obligations under this Agreement and the Notes will at all times rank at least pari passu, without preference or priority, with all other unsecured and unsubordinated Indebtedness of the
      Company.

  Section 9.10 Maintaining Books
        and Records. The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, maintain proper books of record and account in conformity with GAAP and all applicable requirements of any Governmental Authority having legal or regulatory
      jurisdiction over the Company or such Subsidiary, as the case may be.  The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, keep books, records and accounts which, in reasonable detail, accurately reflect all transactions and dispositions of
      assets.

      (a) If an Event of Default described in paragraph (h) or (i) of Section 11 in respect of the Company has occurred, all the Notes then outstanding shall
      automatically become immediately due and payable and all commitments or obligations of any Purchaser to purchase any Notes shall be terminated.

  (b) If any Event of Default (other than those described in paragraph (h) or (i) of Section 11) has occurred and is continuing, the Required Holders may at any time at its or their option, by notice or notices to the Company, declare all the Notes then outstanding to be immediately due and

  Section 12.2. Other Remedies. 
      If any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and irrespective of whether any Notes have become or have been declared immediately due and payable under Section 12.1,
      any Holder at the time outstanding may proceed to protect and enforce the rights of such Holder by an action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any agreement contained herein or in any
      Note, or for an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof or thereof, or in aid of the exercise of any power granted hereby or thereby or by law or otherwise.

  Section 12.3. Rescission. 
      At any time after any Notes have been declared due and payable pursuant to clause (b) of Section 12.1, the Required Holders, by written notice to the Company,

  Section 12.4. No Waivers or
        Election of Remedies, Expenses, Etc.No course of dealing and no delay on the part of any Holder in exercising any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice such Holder’s rights, powers or remedies.  No
      right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement or any Transaction Document upon any Holder shall be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy referred to herein or therein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or
      otherwise.  The Company will pay to the Holder of each Note on demand such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover all costs and expenses of such Holder incurred in any enforcement or collection under this Section 12, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements.

  SECTION 13. REGISTRATION;

        EXCHANGE; SUBSTITUTION OF NOTES.

  Section 13.1 Registration of
        Notes.  The Company shall keep at its principal executive office (or hire an agent for this purpose) a register for the registration and registration of transfers
        of Notes.  The name and address of each Holder of one or more Notes, each transfer thereof and the name and address of each transferee of one or more Notes shall be registered in such register.  If any Holder of one or more Notes is a nominee
        (other than with respect to a Global Note), then (i) the name and address of the beneficial owner of such Note or Notes shall also be registered in such register as an owner and Holder thereof and (ii) at any such beneficial owner’s option, either
        such beneficial owner or its nominee may execute any amendment, waiver or consent pursuant to this Agreement.  Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer, the Person in whose name any Note shall be registered (including for the avoidance
        of doubt, any Global Note) shall be deemed and treated as the owner and Holder thereof for all purposes hereof, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice or knowledge to the contrary.  The Company shall give to any Holder of a Note
        promptly upon request therefor, a complete and correct copy of the names and addresses of all registered Holders of Notes.  This Section 13.1 shall be construed so that the Notes are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the
        meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code.  In addition to and not in limitation of any representations contained herein, each Holder acknowledges and agrees that the Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act and
        may not be transferred except pursuant to registration or an exemption therefrom.

  Section 13.2 Transfer, Assignment
        and Exchange of Notes.

  (a) Subject to Section 13.2(b), upon surrender of any Note
      to the Company at the address and to the attention of the designated officer (all as specified in Section 18), for registration of transfer or exchange (and
      in the case of a surrender for registration of transfer accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly executed by the registered Holder of such Note or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing and accompanied by the relevant name,
      address and other information for notices of each transferee of such Note or part thereof), within ten (10) Business Days thereafter, the Company, to the extent the provisions of clause (a) above shall have been met, shall execute and deliver, at the
      Company’s expense (except as provided below), one or more new Notes (as requested by the Holder thereof) in exchange therefor, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of the surrendered Note.  Each such new Note shall be
      payable to such Person as such Holder may request and shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit 1.  Each such new Note shall be dated and bear interest
      from the date to which interest shall have been paid on the surrendered Note or the Closing Date if no interest shall have been paid thereon.  The Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp tax or governmental charge imposed
      in respect of any such transfer of Notes.  Notes shall not be transferred in denominations of less than $100,000, provided that if necessary to enable the registration of transfer by a Holder of its entire holding of Notes, one Note may be in a
      denomination of less than $100,000.  Any transferee, by its acceptance of a Note registered in its name (or the name of its nominee), shall be deemed to have made the representation set forth in Section 6.

  (b) The Notes have been issued and sold pursuant to this Agreement in a private placement transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the
      Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof and, as a result, the Notes are deemed to be “restricted securities” under the Securities Act. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 13.2 to the contrary, a Holder may only transfer Notes or any interest therein (i) to a Person that is a Qualified Institutional Buyer in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act, (ii) to an institutional
      “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (a)(2), (a)(3), (a)(7) or (a)(8) in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act or (iii) in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act and, in each case, in accordance
      with all applicable state securities laws and the securities laws of other applicable jurisdictions.  In connection with any transfer of Notes (other than a transfer made in accordance with the immediately preceding clause (i)) prior to the one year
      anniversary of the Closing Date, and assuming that neither the Company nor any Affiliate of the Company has acquired any Notes, the Company shall be entitled to receive information and documentation as the Company may reasonably request (including an
      opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company at the expense of the transferring Holder) to confirm that such transfer does not require registration under the Securities Act and such other applicable securities laws.

  Section 13.3 Replacement of Notes.  Upon receipt by the Company at the address and to the attention of the designated officer (all as specified in Section 18) of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note, and

  (a) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it (provided that if the Holder of such Note is, or is a nominee
      for, an original Purchaser or another Holder of a Note with a minimum net worth of at least $10,000,000 or an Institutional Investor, such Person’s own unsecured agreement of indemnity shall be deemed to be satisfactory), or

  (b) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation thereof, within ten (10) Business Days thereafter, the Company at its own expense shall
      execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Note, dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or the Closing Date if no interest shall have been paid thereon.

  SECTION 14. Payments

        on Notes.

  Section 14.1 Payment by Wire
        Transfer.  So long as any Purchaser or its nominee shall be the Holder of any Certificated Note, the Company will pay all sums becoming due on such Certificated Note for principal, premium, if any, and interest by the method and at the
      address specified for such purpose in such Purchaser’s signature page hereto, or by such other method or at such other address as such Purchaser shall have from time to time specified to the Company in writing for such purpose, subject to the
      presentation or surrender of such Certificated Note or the making of any notation thereon concurrently with any payment in full of any Certificated Note, in which case such Purchaser shall surrender such Certificated Note for cancellation
      concurrently with such payment to the Company at its principal executive office or at the place designated by the Company.  Prior to any sale or other disposition of any Certificated Note held by a Purchaser or its nominee, such Purchaser will
      surrender such Certificated Note to the Company in exchange for a new Certificated Note or Notes pursuant to Section 13.2.  The Company will afford the
      benefits of this Section 14.1 to any direct or indirect transferee of any Certificated Note purchased by a Purchaser under this Agreement and that has made
      the same agreement relating to such Certificated Note as the Purchaser has made in this Section 14.1.  The Company will pay all sums becoming due on any
      Global Note by wire transfer of immediately available funds to DTC or its nominee in accordance with the Applicable Depositary Procedures.

  Section 14.2 Tax Information. 

      Each Purchaser shall provide the Company with a properly completed IRS Form W-9 or applicable IRS Form W-8.

  Section 14.3 Payments Generally. 

      Unless otherwise provided for herein, if any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest
      thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension.  All payments hereunder shall be made in U.S. dollars

  SECTION 15. Expenses.    Each of the
      Company and the Purchasers shall be responsible for their own expenses incurred in connection with the Exchange.

  SECTION 16. Survival of Representations and
        Warranties; Entire Agreement.

  All representations and warranties contained herein and in the other Transaction Documents shall survive the
    execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Warrants and the Notes, the purchase or transfer by any Purchaser of any Note, any Warrant or any portion thereof or interest therein and the payment of any Note or exercise of any Warrant, and may be
    relied upon by any subsequent Holder or holder of a Warrant, regardless of any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of such Purchaser or any other Holder or holder of a Warrant; provided, that no representation or warranty shall be deemed to be made as of any time other than (i) the Signing Date or the date of execution and delivery of such other document, certificate,
    instrument or agreement containing such representation or warranty, or (ii) at the time of the Closing.  All statements contained in any certificate or other instrument delivered by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to this Agreement or the other
    Transaction Documents shall be deemed representations and warranties of the Company under this Agreement or the other Transaction Document, as applicable.  Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents embody the
    entire agreement and understanding between each Purchaser and the Company and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, in each case relating to the subject matter hereof.

  SECTION 17. Amendment and Waiver.

  Section 17.1. Requirements. 

      This Agreement, the Notes Documents and the Notes may be amended, and the observance of any term hereof or of the Notes Documents or the Notes may be waived (either retroactively or prospectively), with (and only with) the written consent of the
      Company and the Required Holders, except that (a) no amendment or waiver of any of the provisions of Section 1, 2, 3, 4A, 5, 6 or 21 hereof, or any defined term (as it is used therein), will be effective as to any Purchaser unless consented to by such Purchaser in writing and (b) no such amendment or waiver may, without the written consent of the
      Holder of each Note at the time outstanding affected thereby, (i) subject to the provisions of Section 12 relating to acceleration or rescission, change the
      amount or time of any redemption (other than as provided in Sections 8.2(c) and 8.4
      as in effect on the Signing Date), offer to purchase or payment of principal of, or reduce the rate or change the time of payment or method of computation of interest on the Notes, (ii) change the percentage of the principal amount of the Notes the
      Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or waiver, or (iii) amend any of Sections 8, 11(a), 11(b), 12 or
      this Section 17.

  Section 17.2. Solicitation of
        Holders.   The Company will promptly provide each Holder (irrespective of the amount of Notes then owned by it) with sufficient information sufficiently far in advance of the date a decision is required, to enable such Holder to make an
      informed and considered decision with respect to any proposed amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the provisions hereof or of the Notes.  The Company will deliver executed or true and correct copies of each amendment, waiver or consent
      effected pursuant to the provisions of this Section 17.2 to each Holder of outstanding Notes promptly following the date on which it is executed and delivered
      by, or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite Holders.

  Section 17.3. Binding Effect, Etc.Any
      amendment or waiver consented to as provided in this Section 17 applies equally to all Holders and is binding upon them and upon each future Holder and upon
      the Company without regard to whether such Note has been marked to indicate such amendment or waiver.  No such amendment or waiver will extend to or affect any obligation, covenant, agreement, Default or Event of Default not expressly amended or
      waived or impair any right consequent thereon.  No course of dealing between the Company and any Holder nor any delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under any Note shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any Holder of such Note.  As used
      herein, the term “this Agreement” and references thereto shall mean this Agreement as it may from time to time be amended or supplemented.

  Section 17.4. Notes Held by
        Company, Etc.Solely for the purpose of determining whether the Holders of the requisite percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding approved or consented to any amendment, waiver or consent to be given under this
      Agreement, the Notes Documents or the Notes, or have directed the taking of any action provided herein, the Notes Documents or in the Notes to be taken upon the direction of the Holders of a specified percentage of the aggregate principal amount of
      Notes then outstanding, Notes directly or indirectly owned by the Company or any of its Affiliates shall be deemed not to be outstanding.

  SECTION 18. Notices.

  All notices and communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing and sent by (1) e-mail and (2) accompanied
    by either (x) a registered or certified mailing with return receipt requested (postage prepaid) or (y) delivery by a recognized overnight delivery service (charges prepaid).  Any such notice must be sent: (i) if to any Holder to the e-mail and mail
    address provided by such Holder to the Company in writing, or (ii) if to the Company, at its e-mail address bgoldstein@kingstonecompanies.com or such other e-mail address provided to the Holders and the mail address set forth at the beginning hereof,
    addressed to the attention of the Chief Executive Officer. Notices under this Section 18 will be deemed given only when actually received.

  SECTION 19. Reproduction of Documents.

  This Agreement, the Transaction Documents and all documents relating thereto, including, without limitation,
    (a) consents, waivers and modifications that may hereafter be executed, (b) documents received by each Purchaser at the Closing (except the Notes themselves), and (c) financial statements, certificates and other information previously or hereafter
    furnished to each Purchaser, may be reproduced by such Purchaser by any photographic, photostatic, microfilm, microcard, miniature photographic or other similar process and such Purchaser may destroy any original document so reproduced.  The Company
    agrees and stipulates that, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, any such reproduction (other than the Notes) shall be admissible in evidence as the original itself in any judicial or administrative proceeding (whether or not the original is in
    existence and whether or not such reproduction was made by such Purchaser in the regular course of business) and any enlargement, facsimile or further reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be admissible in evidence.  This Section 19 shall not prohibit the Company or any other Holder from contesting any such reproduction to the same extent that it could contest the original, or from
    introducing evidence to demonstrate the inaccuracy of any such reproduction.

  SECTION 20. [Reserved].

  SECTION 21. Substitution of Purchaser.

  Each Purchaser shall have the right to substitute any one of such Purchaser’s Affiliates as the purchaser of the
    Notes that such Purchaser has agreed to purchase hereunder, by written notice to the Company, which notice shall be signed by both such Purchaser and such Purchaser’s Affiliate, shall contain such Affiliate’s agreement to be bound by this Agreement and
    shall contain a confirmation by such Affiliate of the accuracy with respect to it of the representations set forth in Section 6.  Upon receipt of such notice,
    wherever the word “Purchaser” is used in this Agreement (other than in this Section 21), such word shall be deemed to refer to such Affiliate in lieu of such
    Purchaser.  In the event that such Affiliate is so substituted as a purchaser hereunder and such Affiliate thereafter transfers to such Purchaser all of the Notes then held by such Affiliate, upon receipt by the Company of notice of such transfer,
    wherever the word “Purchaser” is used in this Agreement (other than in this Section 21), such word shall no longer be deemed to refer to such Affiliate, but
    shall refer to such Purchaser, and such Purchaser shall have all the rights of an original Holder under this Agreement.

  SECTION 22. Miscellaneous.

  Section 22.1. Successors and
        Assigns.  All covenants and other agreements contained in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns (including,
      without limitation, any subsequent Holder) whether so expressed or not.

  Section 22.2. Payments Due on
        Non-Business Days.  Anything in this Agreement, the Notes Documents or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding, any payment of principal of or interest on any Note that is due on a date other than a Business Day shall be made on the next
      succeeding Business Day without including the additional days elapsed in the computation of the interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day.

  Section 22.3. Severability. 

      Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any
      such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by law) not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

  Section 22.4. Construction. 

      Each covenant contained herein shall be construed (absent express provision to the contrary) as being independent of each other covenant contained herein, so that compliance with any one covenant shall not (absent such an express contrary provision)
      be deemed to excuse compliance with any other covenant.  Where any provision herein refers to action to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly
      or indirectly by such Person.  The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement.  If any ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly
      by the parties hereto, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

  Section 22.5. Counterparts. 

      This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one instrument.  Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof, each signed by fewer than all, but
      together signed by all, of the parties hereto. The exchange of copies of this Agreement and of signature pages by facsimile or PDF transmission shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this Agreement.  Signature pages hereto transmitted
      by facsimile or PDF shall be deemed to be original signatures for all purposes.

  Section 22.6. Governing Law. 

      This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the law of the State of New York excluding choice-of-law principles of the law of such State or any other jurisdiction that would
      require the application of the laws of a jurisdiction other than such State.

  Section 22.7. Venue.  Any
      legal action or proceeding arising under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents in any way connected or related or incidental to the dealings of the parties hereto or any of them with respect to this Agreement or the Transaction Documents,
      or the transactions related thereto, in each case whether or not existing or hereafter arising, shall be brought in the courts of the State of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan or of the United States District Court for the Southern
      District of New York of such State (provided that if none of such courts can and will exercise such jurisdiction, such exclusivity shall not apply), and by execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company, each Purchaser and each Holder
      consents, for itself and in respect of its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of those courts.  The Company, each Purchaser and each Holder irrevocably waives any objection, including any objection to the laying of venue or based on the grounds
      of forum non conveniens, which it may now or hereafter have to the bringing of any action or proceeding in such jurisdiction in respect of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or any other document related thereto.  Nothing in this
      Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall affect any right that any Purchaser or any Holder may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents against the Company or any of its
      properties in the courts of any jurisdiction (i) for purposes of enforcing a judgment, (ii) in connection with any pending bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding in such jurisdiction.

  Section 22.8. WAIVER

    Warrant Certificate

    KINGSTONE COMPANIES, INC.

    

    

  

  
    

    

    This Warrant Certificate (this “Warrant Certificate”) certifies that _________, or its registered assigns (collectively, the “Holder”),
      for value received, is the registered holder of the number of warrants (“Warrants”) set forth above to purchase shares of common stock, par value
      $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), of Kingstone
        Companies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 hereof. This Warrant Certificate
      and the Warrants issued thereunder are being issued pursuant to that certain Note and Warrant Exchange Agreement, dated as of December 9, 2022, among the Company and the several Purchasers party thereto (the “Exchange Agreement”). References in this Warrant Certificate to this “Warrant”
      shall mean any and all Warrants issued and outstanding and represented by this Warrant Certificate.

    

    

  

  1. EXERCISE.

  (a) Number and Exercise Price of Warrant Shares; Expiration Date. Subject to the terms and
      conditions set forth herein, each Warrant entitles the Holder upon exercise to receive from the Company (subject to the immediately succeeding sentence) one duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of Common Stock of the
      Company will be issued per Warrant, and if all Warrants represented by this Warrant Certificate are exercised, up to [●] shares of Common Stock of the Company, in each case, as may be adjusted from time to time pursuant to the terms herein (the “Warrant Shares”), at an initial purchase price of $1.00 per share (the “Exercise Price”), at any time and from time to time on or after the date hereof (the “Date of Issuance”) but not after
      5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on December 30, 2025 (such date, as may be adjusted from time to time in accordance with the terms herein, the “Expiration Date”)

      (subject to earlier termination as set forth herein).  In lieu of delivering any Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any Warrants by the Holder hereof, the Company, in its
        sole discretion, may pay such Holder cash in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of any Warrant Shares that would otherwise be deliverable upon such exercise as provided in Section 5(b) hereof.

  (b) Cash Exercise. While this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable in accordance with
      Section 1(a) above, the Holder may exercise this Warrant in accordance with Section

          5 herein, by paying the Exercise Price by wire transfer to the Company or cashier’s check drawn on a U.S. bank made payable to the order of the Company. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required
      to physically surrender this Warrant Certificate to the Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrants represented by this Warrant Certificate have been exercised in full, in which case, the
      Holder shall surrender this Warrant Certificate to the Company for cancellation within three Trading Days (as defined below) of the date the final Notice of Exercise (as defined below) is delivered to the Company. “Trading Day” means a day during which trading in securities generally occurs on the Trading Market, except a day on which a Market Disruption Event occurs. Partial exercises
      of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number
      of Warrant Shares purchased. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date of such purchases.

  (c) Net Exercise. In lieu of exercising this Warrant pursuant to Section 1(b), at any time, the Holder may elect to credit the Exercise Price against the Fair Market Value (as defined below) of the Warrant Shares at the time of exercise (the “Net Exercise”) pursuant to this Section 1(c). If the
      Company shall receive written notice from the Holder at the time of exercise of this Warrant that the Holder elects to Net Exercise this Warrant, the Company shall deliver to such Holder (without payment by the Holder of any Exercise Price in cash)
      that number of Warrant Shares computed using the following formula:

  
    

    

    

    

    

    

  

  
    

    

    Where:

    

    

  

  
    

    

    X = The number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder.

    Y = The number of Warrant Shares purchasable under this Warrant or, if only a portion of this
      Warrant is being exercised, the portion of this Warrant being cancelled (at the date of such calculation).

    

    

  

  
    

    

    A = The Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding
      the date on which the Holder elects to exercise this Warrant by Net Exercise.

      

      

      B = The Exercise Price (as adjusted hereunder).

    

    

  

  
    

    

    The “Fair Market
        Value” of one share of Common Stock, as of any date of determination,  shall mean (x)(i) the arithmetic average of the VWAPs (as defined below) for the ten consecutive Trading Days ending on the Trading Day immediately preceding such date of
      determination, (ii) if no VWAP of the Common Stock is reported for the Trading Market (as defined below), the last reported sale price of the Common Stock on the Trading Market and (iii) if there are no reported sales, the average of the reported
      closing bid and asked prices regular way of the Common Stock  on the Trading Market, in each of clause (ii) and (iii), for the Trading Day immediately preceding such date of determination as reported by Bloomberg Financial Markets (“Bloomberg”) (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), or (y) if the Fair Market Value cannot be calculated
      as of such date on the foregoing bases, the "Fair Market Value" of the Common Stock shall be the fair market value per share as determined jointly by the Holder and Board of Directors of the Company; provided that if the parties have not jointly
      agreed on a fair market value within 20 days then the Holder and the Company agree to retain a third party appraiser to determine such fair market value (with the costs of the appraiser to be divided equally between the Holder and the Company).

    

    

  

  
    

    

    “Market Disruption Event” means (a) a failure by the Trading Market
      to open for trading during its regular trading session or (b) the occurrence or existence prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on any trading day for the Common Stock
        for more than one half-hour period in the aggregate during regular trading hours of any suspension or limitation imposed on trading (by reason of movements in price exceeding limits permitted by the Trading Market or otherwise) in the Common Stock
        or in any options contracts or futures contracts relating to the Common Stock.

    

    

  

  
    

    

    “OTC

        Markets” shall mean either OTCQX or OTCQB of the OTC Markets Group Inc.

    “Trading

        Market” shall mean any of the following markets or exchanges on which the Common Stock is listed or quoted for trading on the date in question: the New York Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq Capital Market, the Nasdaq Global Market, the Nasdaq
      Global Select Market, the NYSE American or the OTC Markets (or any successors to any of the foregoing).

    “VWAP”
      means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Common Stock is then listed or quoted on the Nasdaq Capital Market, the daily volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or
      the nearest preceding date) on the Nasdaq Capital Market as reported by Bloomberg (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)) (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of
      reporting prices), or (b) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted on the Nasdaq Capital Market, then the daily volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the Trading Market on which the
      Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)) (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices).

    

    

  

  (d) Holder’s Exercise Limitations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
      herein, the Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and the Holder shall not be entitled to exercise this Warrant, for a number of Warrant Shares in excess of that number of Warrant Shares which, upon giving effect to such exercise,
      would cause (i) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates (as defined below) and any other persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes
      of Section 13(d) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), to exceed 9.9% of the total number of issued and
      outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company following such exercise or (ii) the combined voting power of the securities of the Company beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and any other persons whose beneficial ownership of
      Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act to exceed 9.9% of the combined voting power of all of the securities of the Company then outstanding following such exercise (clauses (i) and (ii),
      collectively, the “Ownership Percentage”). The term “Affiliate” as used herein means, with respect to any person, any other person that, directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by or is under common control with such person. For purposes of
      this Section 1(d) , the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock or voting securities beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and any other
      persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act shall include the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the 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 exercise of the remaining unexercised and non-cancelled portion of this Warrant by the Holder.

  (e) Delivery of New Warrants Upon Exercise. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in
      part, the Company shall, at the request of the Holder and upon surrender of this Warrant Certificate, at the time of delivery of the Warrant Shares, deliver to the Holder a new warrant certificate evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the
      unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new warrant certificate shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant Certificate.

  (f) Restricted Securities. The Warrants are expected to be issued in a transaction exempt
      from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to Rule 4(a)(2) thereunder. 
      Accordingly, the Warrants represented by this Warrant Certificate and the Warrants Shares issuable upon exercise of any Warrants will be restricted securities under the Securities Act.

  2. CERTAIN ADJUSTMENTS.

  
    

    

    (a) Adjustment of Number of Warrant Shares and Exercise Price. The number and
          kind of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:

        

    

    

    

  

  (i) Dividends, Subdivisions, Combinations and Other Issuances. If the Company shall at any
      time after the Date of Issuance but prior to the Expiration Date subdivide its shares of capital stock of the same class as the Warrant Shares, by stock split or otherwise, or combine such shares of capital stock, effect a reverse stock split, pay a
      stock dividend or issue additional shares of capital stock as a dividend with respect to any shares of such capital stock, or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent
      securities payable in Common Stock, the number of Warrant Shares issuable on the exercise of this Warrant shall forthwith be proportionately increased in the case of a subdivision, dividend or stock dividend, or proportionately decreased in the case
      of a combination or reverse stock split. Appropriate adjustments shall also be made to the Exercise Price payable per share, but the aggregate Exercise Price payable for the total number of Warrant Shares purchasable under this Warrant (as adjusted)
      shall remain the same. Any adjustment under this Section 2(a)(i) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination
      becomes effective, or as of the record date of such dividend, or in the event that no record date is fixed, upon the making of such dividend or distribution.

  (ii) Reclassification, Reorganizations and Consolidation. In case of any reclassification,
      capital reorganization or change in the capital stock of the Company (other than as a result of a subdivision, combination, stock split (forward or reverse) or stock dividend provided for in Section 2(a)(i) above) that occurs after the Date of Issuance, then, as a condition of such reclassification, reorganization or change, lawful provision shall be made, and duly executed documents evidencing the
      same from the Company or its successor shall be delivered to the Holder, so that the Holder shall thereafter have the right at any time prior to the expiration of this Warrant to purchase, at a total price equal to that payable upon the exercise of
      this Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock and/or other securities or property (including, if applicable, cash) receivable in connection with such reclassification, reorganization or change by a holder of the same number and type of
      securities as were purchasable as Warrant Shares by the Holder immediately prior to such reclassification, reorganization or change. In any such case, appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interest of the Holder so that
      the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable with respect to any shares of stock or other securities or property deliverable upon exercise hereof, and appropriate adjustments shall be made to the Exercise Price payable hereunder, provided the aggregate Exercise Price shall remain the same.

  (b) Pro Rata Distributions. Excluding dividends in the form of Common Stock provided in Section 2(a), if the Company shall declare
      or make, for fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Common Stock, by way of dividend, distribution,
      return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, property or other non-Common Stock distribution, or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights) (a
      “Distribution”), at any time after the issuance of this Warrant, then, in each such case, provision shall be made so that the Holder shall receive
      upon exercise of this Warrant, in addition to the number of Warrant Shares receivable thereupon, the kind and amount of securities of the Company, cash or other property which the Holder would have been entitled to receive had the Warrant been
      exercised in full into Warrant Shares on the date of such event and had the Holder thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the date of exercise, retained such securities, cash or other property receivable by them as
      aforesaid during such period, giving application to all adjustments called for during such period under this Section 2 with respect to the rights of the
      Holder; provided, that no such provision shall be made if the Holder receives, simultaneously with the distribution to the holders of Common Stock, a dividend or other distribution of such securities, cash or other property in an amount equal to the
      amount of such securities, cash or other property as the Holder would have received if the Warrant had been exercised in full into Warrant Shares on the date of such event.

  (c) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 2 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section

          2, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding.

  (d) Treatment of Warrant upon a Change of Control.

  (i) If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, the Company consummates a Change of Control, then a holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon exercise of this
      Warrant, the same amount and kind of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Change of Control if it had been, immediately prior to such Change of Control, a holder of the number of Warrant
      Shares then issuable upon exercise in full of this Warrant (the “Alternate Consideration”). If the holders of Common Stock are given any choice as
      to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Change of Control, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall not effect any such Change of
      Control unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof, any successor to the Company, surviving entity or the corporation purchasing or otherwise acquiring such assets or other appropriate corporation or entity (the “Successor Entity”) shall (i) assume the obligation to deliver to the Holder, such Alternate Consideration as, in accordance with the foregoing
      provisions, the Holder may be entitled to purchase, and the other obligations under this Warrant, and (ii) issue to the Holder a new warrant substantially in the form of this Warrant and consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the
      Holder’s right to purchase the Alternate Consideration for the aggregate Exercise Price upon exercise thereof.

  (ii) As used in this Warrant, a “Change of Control” means (1) a consolidation,
      merger or combination (including a spin-off) or statutory share exchange, in each case involving the Company, (2) a sale of all or substantially all of the direct or indirect assets of the Company (including by way of any reorganization, merger,
      consolidation, transfer, conveyance or other disposition or other similar transaction or series of related transactions), or (3) a direct or indirect acquisition of beneficial ownership of voting securities of the Company by another person or “group”
      (within the meaning of Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act) by means of any transaction or series of transactions (including any reorganization, merger, consolidation, joint venture, share transfer or other similar transaction), in each
      case, pursuant to which (x) the stockholders of the Company immediately preceding such transaction or transactions collectively own, following the consummation of such transaction or transactions, less than fifty percent (50%) of the total economic
      interests or total voting power of all securities of beneficial interest of the Company entitled to vote generally and / or (y) as a result of which the Common Stock would be converted into, or exchanged for, or would be reclassified or changed into,
      stock, other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof).

  (e) Notice to Allow Exercise by Holder. If (i) the Company shall declare a redemption of the
      Common Stock, (ii) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or
      substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property, or (iii) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation
      or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be delivered by facsimile or email to the Holder at its last facsimile number or email address as it shall appear upon the record to be maintained by the
      Company for the purposes of registering this Warrant (the “Warrant Register”), at least twenty (20) calendar days prior to the applicable record or
      effective date, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of
      record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or
      close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation,
      merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; provided that the failure
      to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that any notice provided hereunder
      constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, the Company shall consult with the Holder regarding the delivery of such material, non-public information at least two (2) days prior to
      delivery of such notice.

  3. NO FRACTIONAL SHARES; CHARGES, TAXES AND EXPENSES. No fractional Warrant Shares or scrip representing fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of this Warrant. In lieu of
      any fractional shares which would otherwise be issuable, the Company shall pay cash equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the Fair Market Value of one Warrant Share. Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder
      for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such Warrant Shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such Warrant Shares shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such
      name or names as may be directed by the Holder; provided, however,
      that in the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder and the Company may
      require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto. The Company shall pay all fees required for processing of any Notice of Exercise and all fees of the registrar and transfer
      agent for the Common Stock required for delivery of the Warrant Shares.

  4. NO STOCKHOLDER RIGHTS. Until the exercise of this Warrant or any portion of this Warrant, the Holder (in its capacity as such) shall not have, nor exercise, any rights as a
      stockholder of the Company (including without limitation the right to notification of stockholder meetings or the right to receive any notice or other communication concerning the business and affairs of the Company).

  5. MECHANICS OF EXERCISE.

  (a) Delivery of Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. This Warrant may be exercised by the Holder
      hereof, in whole or in part, by delivering to the Company (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered Holder at the address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Company) a duly
      executed copy of the Notice of Exercise in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Notice of Exercise”) by facsimile or e- mail attachment. Within two (2) Trading Days following the date of exercise as aforesaid, the Holder shall deliver the Exercise Price (unless the Holder has elected to Net
      Exercise, if applicable) then in effect with respect to the number of Warrant Shares as to which the Warrant is being exercised by wire transfer. No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor any medallion guarantee (or other type of
      guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise shall be required.  Subject to Section 5(b), upon payment of the Exercise Price (unless the Holder has elected to Net Exercise, if applicable), this Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised
      immediately prior to the close of business on the date of the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise as provided above, and the person entitled to receive the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise shall be treated for all purposes as
      the Holder of such shares of record as of the close of business on such date. Subject to Section 5(b), Warrant Shares purchased hereunder shall be transmitted by the Company’s transfer agent to 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 either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder or (B) the shares are eligible for resale by the holder without volume or
      manner-of-sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144, and otherwise by electronic book-entry form (unless the Holder requests that the Warrant Shares be issued in certificated form in the Notice of Exercise) by the end of the day on the date that is three
      (3) Trading Days from the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise (the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”); provided that the Company shall not be required to deliver the Warrant Shares until payment of the applicable Exercise Price (other than in the case of Net Exercise) is received by the
      Company.  Subject to Section 5(b), the 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 date the Warrant has been exercised (or by Net Exercise, if applicable) irrespective of the date of delivery of the Warrant Shares, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of Net Exercise) is received by the
      Company within two (2) Trading Days of delivery of the Exercise Notice.

  (b) Company’s Option to Settle in Cash.  In lieu of delivering any Warrant Shares upon the
      exercise of any Warrants by the Holder hereof, the Company, in its sole discretion, may pay such Holder cash in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of any Warrant Shares that would otherwise be deliverable upon such exercise (the “Cash
      Payment”).  In the event the Company elects to make a Cash Payment to a Holder in lieu of delivering any Warrant Shares upon exercise of any Warrants, the Company shall notify the Holder within two (2) Trading Days from the delivery to the Company of
      the Notice of Exercise and, within three (3) Trading Days the Company shall either (i) deliver to such Holder at its addresses set forth in the Warrant Registrar a check payable to the order of such Holder in the amount of the Cash Payment or (ii)
      wire immediately available funds in the amount of the Cash Payment to a U.S. bank account designated in the wire instructions provided by the Holder to the Company.  In calculating the amount of the Cash Payment, the Company shall assume a Net
      Exercise for such Warrant Shares.

  (c) Rescission Rights. If the Company fails to cause its transfer agent to transmit to the
      Holder the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 5(a) by the Warrant
      Share Delivery Date, then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.

  6. CERTIFICATE OF ADJUSTMENT. Whenever the Exercise Price or number or type of securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company shall,
      at its expense, promptly deliver to the Holder a certificate of an officer of the Company setting forth the nature of such adjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based.

  7. COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES LAWS.

  (a) Prior to the sale or transfer of the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the
        Holder shall furnish to the Company such certificates, representations, agreements and other information, as the Company or the Company’s transfer agent reasonably may require to confirm that such sale or transfer is being made pursuant to an
        exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

  (b) Until such time that the Warrant or the Warrant Shares have been sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or transferred pursuant to Rule 144
      promulgated under the Securities Act without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, the Holder acknowledges that (i) the Warrant and the Warrant Shares are “restricted securities”
      under federal securities laws and (ii) the Company shall place a restrictive legend on the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in order to comply with applicable securities laws, in substantially the following form and substance:

  
    

    

    “THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED
      (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR ANY OTHER APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS AND HAVE BEEN ISSUED IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND SUCH OTHER SECURITIES LAWS. NEITHER THIS SECURITY NOR ANY INTEREST OR
      PARTICIPATION HEREIN MAY BE REOFFERED, SOLD, ASSIGNED, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, ENCUMBERED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF, EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO A TRANSACTION WHICH IS
      EXEMPT FROM, OR NOT SUBJECT TO, SUCH REGISTRATION, IN EACH CASE IN ACCORDANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS, AND IN THE CASE OF A TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM, OR NOT SUBJECT TO, SUCH REGISTRATION, IN EACH CASE IN ACCORDANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE
      SECURITIES LAWS, AND IN THE CASE OF A TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM, OR NOT SUBJECT TO, SUCH REGISTRATION, UNLESS THE COMPANY HAS RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO IT THAT SUCH TRANSACTION DOES NOT REQUIRE REGISTRATION UNDER THE
      SECURITIES ACT AND SUCH OTHER APPLICABLE LAWS.”

    

    

  

  8. REPLACEMENT OF WARRANTS. On receipt 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 (but not the posting of any surety or other bond) or, in the case of any such mutilation, on surrender and
      cancellation of such Warrant, the Company at its expense will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.

  9. NO IMPAIRMENT. Except to the extent as may be waived by the Holder, the Company will not, by amendment of its charter or through a Change of Control, dissolution, sale of assets
      or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as may be
      necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder against impairment. The Company will not close its stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof.

  10. TRADING DAYS. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall be other than a day on which the Common
      Stock is traded on the Trading Market, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding day on which the Common Stock is so traded.

  11. TRANSFERS; EXCHANGES.

  
    

    

    (a) Subject to compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws and Section 7 hereof, the Holder may sell, assign, transfer, pledge or dispose of all or any portion of this Warrant at any time or from time to time to any person. For a transfer of this Warrant as an entirety by the Holder or any
          such subsequent Holder, upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company, together with the Notice of Assignment in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B duly completed and executed on behalf of the Holder or any such subsequent Holder, the
          Company shall issue a new Warrant of the same denomination to the assignee. For a transfer of this Warrant with respect to a portion of the Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder, upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company, together with the
          Notice of Assignment in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B duly completed and executed on behalf of the Holder, the Company shall issue a new Warrant to the assignee, in such denomination as shall be requested by the Holder, and shall
          issue to the Holder a new Warrant covering the number of shares in respect of which this Warrant shall not have been transferred.

        

    

    (b) Upon any transfer of all or any portion of this Warrant, this Warrant is exchangeable, without expense, at the option of the Holder, upon presentation
        and surrender hereof to the Company for other Warrants of different denominations entitling the holder thereof to purchase in the aggregate the same number of shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder. This Warrant may be divided or combined
        with other Warrants that carry the same rights upon presentation hereof at the principal office of the Company together with a written notice specifying the denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued to the Holder and signed by the Holder
        hereof. The term “Warrants” as used herein includes any Warrants into which this Warrant may be divided or exchanged.

        

        

        

    

    

    

  

  12. AUTHORIZED SHARES. The Company covenants that, during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of
      shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant (taking into account the adjustment provisions of Section

          2). The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of issuing the necessary Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under
      this Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, of any requirements of the Trading Market
      upon which the Common Stock may be quoted or listed, or any preemptive rights or other contingent purchase rights. The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant
      will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant and payment for such Warrant Shares in accordance herewith, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by
      the Company in respect of the issue thereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will: (i) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such
      increase in par value, and (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may be necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations
      under this Warrant.

  13. MISCELLANEOUS.

  (a) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
      laws of the United States of America and the State of New York, both substantive and remedial, without regard to New York conflicts of law principles. Any judicial proceeding brought under this Agreement or any dispute arising out of this Agreement
      or any matter related hereto shall be brought in the courts of the State of New York, New York County, or in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York.

  (b) Notices. All notices, requests, consents and other communications hereunder shall be in
      writing, shall be sent by confirmed facsimile or electronic mail, or mailed by first-class registered or certified airmail, or nationally recognized overnight express courier, postage prepaid, and shall be deemed given when so sent in the case of
      facsimile or electronic mail transmission, or when so received in the case of mail or courier, and addressed as follows: (a) if to the Company, at Kingston Companies, Inc., 15 Joys Lane, Kingston, New York, 12401, Attn: Chief Executive Officer,
      e-mail: bgoldstein@kingstonecompanies.com; with a copy to (which shall not constitute notice) Mayer Brown LLP, 1221 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10020, Attn: John P. Berkery, Esq., e-mail: jberkery@mayerbrown.com, and (b) if to the
      Holder, at such address or addresses (including copies to counsel) as may have been furnished by the Holder to the Company in writing.

  (c) The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of any other provisions.

  (d) No Voting Rights. Nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as conferring
      upon the Holder hereof the right to vote or to consent to receive notice as a stockholder of the Company.

  (e) Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action
      by the Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the purchase price of any such Warrant Shares or as a
      stockholder of the Company with respect to such Warrant Shares, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

  (f) Remedies. Each party, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by
      law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. Each party agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the
      provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive and not to assert the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be inadequate.

  (g) Amendment. This Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived only
      with the written consent of the Company and the Holder.

  (h) Nonwaiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any
      right hereunder on the part of a party shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice such party’s rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding the fact that the Holder’s right to exercise this Warrant terminates at 5:00 P.M New York
      time on the Expiration Date. If a party willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant or the Exchange Agreement, which results in any material damage to the other party, the defaulting party shall pay to the non-
      defaulting party such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by the non-defaulting party in collecting any amounts
      due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.

  EXHIBIT 3

  Form of Opinion of Counsel

  
    	
            A.

          	
            The Company is a corporation validly existing and in good standing  under the laws of the State of Delaware and has the
              corporate power to enter into and perform its obligations under the Note and Warrant Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”), the Notes and the Warrants (collectively, the “Transaction Documents”).

          

  

  
    	
            B.

          	
            The Exchange Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes the valid and binding
              obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that enforcement thereof may be limited by the laws of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium, or
              similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally (whether now or hereafter in effect), laws limiting rights of indemnity or contribution, or equitable principles of general applicability (regardless of whether enforceability
              is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity).

          

  

  
    	
            C.

          	
            The Notes have been duly authorized and executed by the Company and, when authenticated by the Paying Agent in accordance with
              the provisions of the Exchange Agreement and delivered and paid for as provided in the Exchange Agreement, will be valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, except as
              enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights and remedies generally (whether now or hereafter in effect), laws limiting
              rights of indemnity or contribution and general principles of equity regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

          

  

  
    	
            D.

          	
            The Warrants have been duly authorized and executed by the Company and, when delivered and paid for as provided in the
              Exchange Agreement, will be valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, except as enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance,
              reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the rights of equity holders (whether now or hereafter in effect), laws limiting rights of indemnity or contribution and general principles of equity regardless of whether
              enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

          

  

  
    	
            E.

          	
            The shares of common stock to be issued upon
                exercise of the Warrants have been duly authorized and reserved for issuance by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company and upon exercise
                of any Warrant, when issued and delivered against payment of the exercise price therefor in full in accordance with the terms of such Warrant, will be validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable.

          

  

  
    	
            F.

          	
            The execution and delivery of Transaction Documents by the Company, the issuance and sale of the Notes and Warrants by the
              Company and the performance by the Company of its obligations under the Transaction Documents (i) will not conflict with any provision of the amended and restated articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Company,  (ii) will not conflict
              with, constitute a breach or violation of, or default (with the giving of notice, passage of time or otherwise) under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Company pursuant to
              any of the agreements set forth in Schedule B hereto (collectively, the “Subject Agreements”)8, provided that we express no opinion in this clause (ii) as to compliance with any financial or accounting test, or any limitation or
              restriction expressed as a dollar (or other currency) amount, ratio or percentage in any Subject Agreement, and (iii) will not result in any violation of any United States federal or New York State law, rule or regulation or the Delaware
              General Corporation Law, in each case, that in our opinion based on our experience are normally applicable to transactions of the type contemplated by the Transaction Documents, other than United States federal and state securities laws
              (collectively, “Applicable Law”).

          

  

  
    	
            G.

          	
            No consent, approval, authorization or other order of, or registration or filing with, any court or other governmental
              authority or agency is required under Applicable Law for the execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents by the Company, the issuance and sale of the Notes and Warrants, and the performance by the Company of its obligations under the
              Transaction Documents, except for such consents, approvals, authorizations, orders, registration or filings which have been obtained or made or the failure of which to obtain or make would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or
              in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

          

  

  
    	
            H.

          	
            Assuming the accuracy of, and compliance with, the representations, warranties and covenants of the Company and the Purchasers
              contained in the Exchange Agreement, it is not necessary in connection with the issuance, sale and delivery of the Notes and Warrants by the Company, under the circumstances contemplated by the Exchange Agreement, to register the Notes and
              Warrants under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or to qualify an indenture in respect of the Notes under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended.

          

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  8   Subject Agreements shall be those agreements filed as exhibits under item 10 to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and
    any Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or Current Report on Form 8-K filed thereafter.
