On behalf of the Board of Directors of Energy Recovery Inc. (“ERI”) or (“Company”), I am pleased to offer you the position of President and Chief Executive Officer, reporting to the Board of Directors, subject to the following terms and conditions.

Salary and Effective Date.  We would like your promotion to begin on May 2, 2018.  You will receive an annual base salary of $425,000.00, less deductions authorized or required by law, which will be paid bi-weekly in accordance with our standard payroll practices.  

Executive Bonus Plan.  You will also be eligible to participate in the Company’s annual Executive Bonus Plan, under which you will be eligible to receive from 0% - to 100% of your base salary based on your achievement toward Company annual financial targets and/or other performance goals. 

Stock Option Grant.  As part of your promotion, you will be granted an option to purchase $100,000 worth of shares of the Company’s Common Stock under the terms of the Company’s 2016 Incentive Plan. The grant date shall be May 4, 2018 and will vest over four (4) years with twenty-five percent (25%) of the shares vesting on the one year anniversary of the grant date and 1/36th of the remaining shares vesting each month thereafter.  The exercise price per share will equal the closing price of the Company’s Common Stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market on May 4, 2018.

Benefits.  As a full-time employee, you will continue to be eligible to receive employee benefits which include discretionary time off, medical, dental and vision insurance for you and your dependents, as well as long-term disability and life insurance. 

Change of Control Plan.  Under this offer, you will continue to participate in the Company’s Change in Control Severance Plan. 
 
Employment Status Although your status may change, your employment with the Company remains “at will”, meaning that either you or the Company will be entitled to terminate your employment at any time and for any reason, with or without cause. Any contrary representations which may have been made to you are superseded by this offer letter. In addition, although your job duties, title, compensation, benefits, as well as the Company’s personnel policies and procedures, may change in the future, the “at will” nature of your employment may not be changed.

Termination for Convenience.  In the event that you are terminated without Cause (as defined in the CIC Plan, as amended) and not as part of an Anticipatory Termination, you will be entitled to receive the greater of the severance benefits provided in any then-existing and applicable Company severance plan, or as defined in this section, specifically: all payments required by applicable local law, including all earned and unpaid salary, any accrued and unused vacation pay and all earned but unpaid and un-deferred bonus attributable to the year that ends immediately before the year in which the termination occurs, less deductions required or permitted by law; and (without altering the “at will” nature of your employment), the following additional benefits (“Additional Benefits”), in exchange for a mutually agreeable form of release of all claims known or unknown, and satisfying any other conditions or restrictive covenants set forth in any Company severance plan, provided that ERI receives the signed, unrevoked agreement within forty five (45) days of your termination date:  

(A) a severance amount payable in a lump sum equal to twelve (12) months’ salary based on your annual base salary in effect as of the date of the employment termination, less deductions required or permitted by applicable law;

1

(B) the immediate vesting of twenty five (25%) of all unvested equity compensation held by you as of the date of termination, including unvested equity compensation where the amount payable is based on the satisfaction of performance criteria to the extent such vesting acceleration would not cause any award intended to constitute “qualified performance-based compensation,” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) to fail to so qualify, less deductions required or permitted by applicable law, with the vesting acceleration to occur in the following order: stock options and similar equity awards would vest before “full” value equity awards and, within each category of awards, equity awards would vest in the order that they were granted.  All other provisions of the option will continue in effect in accordance with the original terms of the agreement evidencing the option.

To the extent the Additional Benefits compensation is subject to Section 409A of the Code, the severance payment or the distribution of the equity compensation shall be paid or made, as applicable, on the 45th day following “separation from service” (within the meaning of Code Section 409A and any the regulations or other guidance thereunder (“Section 409A”).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no such payment or distribution will be made to you prior to the earlier of (a) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of your separation from service or (b) the date of your death, if you are deemed at the time of such separation from service to be a “specified employee” (within the meaning of Section 409A) and to the extent such delayed commencement is otherwise required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Section 409A. All payments which had been delayed pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence will be paid to you in a lump sum upon expiration of such six-month period (or, if earlier, upon your death).

In the event that you voluntarily resign (other than under the circumstances described in the Change in Control Severance Plan) or are terminated by ERI for Cause, you will only be entitled to payment required by applicable local law, including all earned and unpaid salary, any accrued and unused vacation pay and all earned but unpaid and un-deferred bonus attributable to the year that ends immediately before the year in which the termination occurs, less deductions required or permitted by law.

Then return this letter to me by email or fax within by May 14, 2018.  If your acceptance is not received by this date, we shall assume that you have declined the offer and the offer shall be null and void.

12.Adjustments and Other Rights.  The Exercise Price and Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows; provided that if more than one subsection of this Section 12 is applicable to a single event, the subsection shall be applied that produces the largest adjustment and no single event shall cause an adjustment under more than one subsection of this Section 12 so as to result in duplication.

(i)Stock Splits, Subdivisions, Reclassifications or Combinations.  If the Company shall at any time or from time to time (a) declare, order, pay or make a dividend or make a distribution on Common Stock in additional shares of Common Stock, (b) split, subdivide or reclassify the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares or (c) combine or reclassify the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant at the time of the record date for such dividend or distribution or the effective date of such split, subdivision, combination or reclassification shall be proportionately adjusted so that the Warrantholder immediately after such record date or effective date, as the case may be, shall be entitled to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock which such holder would have owned or been entitled to receive in respect of the shares of Common Stock subject to this Warrant after such date had this Warrant been exercised in full immediately prior to such record date or effective date, as the case may be (disregarding whether or not this Warrant had been exercisable by its terms at such time); provided that such product shall be rounded to the nearest whole Warrant Share.  In the event of such adjustment, the Exercise Price in effect at the time of the record date for such dividend or distribution or the effective date of such split, subdivision, combination or reclassification shall be immediately adjusted to the number obtained by dividing (x) the product of (1) the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant in full before the adjustment determined pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence (disregarding whether or not this Warrant was exercisable by its terms at such time) and (2) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the record or effective date, as the case may be, for the dividend, distribution, split, subdivision, combination or reclassification giving rise to such adjustment by (y) the new number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant in full determined pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence (disregarding whether or not this Warrant is exercisable by its terms at such time); provided that such product shall be rounded to the nearest whole Warrant Share.

(ii)Certain Issuances of Common Stock or Convertible Securities.  If the Company shall at any time or from time to time issue shares of Common Stock (or rights or warrants or any other securities or rights exercisable or convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock (collectively, a “conversion”)), including through distributions on outstanding securities (collectively, “Convertible Securities”) (other than in Permitted Transactions or transactions to which the adjustments set forth in Section 12(i) are applicable), without consideration or at a consideration per share (or having a conversion price per share) that is less than the Exercise Price (the date of such issuance, the “Pricing Date”) then, in such event:

(A)the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to the Pricing Date (the “Initial Number”) shall be increased to the number obtained by multiplying the Initial Number by a fraction (I) the numerator of which shall be the sum of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Pricing Date and (y) the number of additional shares of Common Stock issued (or into which Convertible Securities may be converted) and (II) the denominator of which shall be the sum of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Pricing Date and (y) the number of shares of Common Stock (rounded to the nearest whole share) which the Aggregate Consideration in respect of such issuance of shares of Common Stock (or Convertible Securities) would purchase at the Market Price of Common Stock immediately prior to the Pricing Date; and

	
		
	[***]
	Information has been omitted and submitted separately to the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.

(B)the Exercise Price payable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted by multiplying such Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the Pricing Date by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in full immediately prior to the adjustment pursuant to clause (A) above (disregarding whether or not this Warrant was exercisable by its terms at such time), and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in full immediately after the adjustment pursuant to clause (A) above (disregarding whether or not this Warrant is exercisable by its terms at such time).

For purposes of the foregoing, (1) the “Aggregate Consideration” in respect of such issuance of shares of Common Stock (or Convertible Securities) shall be deemed to be equal to the sum of the gross offering price (before deduction of any related expenses payable to third parties, including discounts and commissions) of all such shares of Common Stock and Convertible Securities, plus the aggregate amount, if any, payable upon conversion of any such Convertible Securities (assuming conversion in accordance with their terms immediately following their issuance (and further assuming for this purpose that such Convertible Securities are convertible at such time)); (2) in the case of the issuance of such shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities for, in whole or in part, any non-cash property (or in the case of any non-cash property payable upon conversion of any such Convertible Securities), the consideration represented by such noncash property shall be deemed to be the Market Price (in the case of securities) and/or Fair Market Value (in all other cases), as applicable, of such non-cash property as of immediately prior to the Pricing Date (before deduction of any related expenses payable to third parties, including discounts and commissions); (3) if the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall have been adjusted upon the issuance of any Convertible Securities in accordance with this Section 12, no further adjustment of the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made for the actual issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the actual conversion of such Convertible Securities in accordance with their terms; and (4) “Permitted Transactions” shall include (a) issuances of shares of Common Stock (including upon exercise of options) to directors, advisors, employees or consultants of the Company pursuant to a stock option plan, employee stock purchase plan, restricted stock plan, other employee benefit plan or other similar compensatory agreement or arrangement approved by the Board of Directors and (b) the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.  For the avoidance of doubt, except in connection with any transaction described in Section 12(i), no adjustment pursuant to this Section 12(ii) shall be made to an applicable Exercise Price or number of related Warrant Shares in the case of the issuance of Common Stock or Convertible Securities at a consideration per share (or having a conversion or exercise price per share) that is equal to or greater than such Exercise Price.  Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 12(ii) shall become effective immediately upon the date of such issuance.  For the avoidance of doubt, no increase to the Exercise Price or decrease in the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made pursuant to this Section 12(ii).
(iii)Distributions.  If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, declares or makes any dividend or distributes to holders of shares of Common Stock (and not to the Warrantholder) evidences of its indebtedness or assets (including cash and cash dividends or property) or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction other than dividends or distributions pursuant to Section 12(i)) (a “Distribution”), then the Warrantholder will be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Warrantholder would have participated therein if the Warrantholder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon exercise of the 

	
		
	[***]

Warrant solely to the extent exercisable immediately before the date as of which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution.

(iv)Repurchases.  If the Company shall at any time or from time to time effect Repurchases, then the Exercise Price shall be reduced to the price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the first purchase of Equity Interests comprising such Repurchases by a fraction of which the numerator shall be (a) the product of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the first purchase of Equity Interests comprising such Repurchases and (2) the Market Price per share of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the first public announcement by the Company of the intent to effect such Repurchases, minus (b) the Assumed Payment Amount, and of which the denominator shall be the product of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the first purchase of Equity Interests comprising such Repurchases minus the number of shares of Common Stock so repurchased and (y) the Market Price per share of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the first public announcement by the Company of the intent to effect such Repurchases.  In such event, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be increased to the number obtained by multiplying such number of Warrant Shares by the quotient of (A) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the first purchase of Equity Interests comprising such Repurchases divided by (B) the new Exercise Price determined in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.  For the avoidance of doubt, no increase to the Exercise Price or decrease in the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made pursuant to this Section 12(iv).  For purposes of the foregoing, the “Assumed Payment Amount” with respect to any Repurchases shall mean the aggregate Market Price (in the case of securities) and/or Fair Market Value (in the case of cash and/or any other property), as applicable, of the aggregate consideration paid to effect such Repurchases.

(v)Change of Control Transactions. In case of any Change of Control Transaction or reclassification of Common Stock (other than a reclassification of Common Stock subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 12(i)), notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (a) the Company shall notify the Warrantholder in writing of such Change of Control Transaction or reclassification as promptly as practicable (but in no event later than 10 Business Days prior to the effectiveness thereof), (b) the Warrant Shares shall immediately vest fully and become non-forfeitable and, subject to clause (c) below, become immediately exercisable upon consummation of such Change of Control Transaction or reclassification and (c) solely in the event of a Change of Control Transaction that is a Business Combination or a reclassification, the Warrantholder’s right to receive Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant shall be converted, effective upon the occurrence of such Business Combination or reclassification, into the right to exercise this Warrant to acquire the number of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) that the shares of Common Stock issuable (at the time of such Business Combination or reclassification) upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such Business Combination or reclassification would have been entitled to receive upon consummation of such Business Combination or reclassification.  In determining the kind and amount of stock, securities or the property receivable upon exercise of this Warrant upon and following adjustment pursuant to this paragraph, if the holders of Common Stock have the right to elect the kind or amount of consideration receivable upon consummation of such Business Combination, then the Warrantholder shall have the right to make the same election upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to the number of shares of stock or other securities or property which the Warrantholder shall receive upon exercise of this Warrant.  The Company, or the Person or Persons formed by the applicable Business Combination or reclassification, or that acquire(s) the applicable shares of Common Stock, as the case may be, shall make lawful provisions to establish such rights and to provide for such adjustments that, for events from and after such Business 

	
		
	[***]

Combination or reclassification, shall be as nearly equivalent as possible to the rights and adjustments provided for herein, and the Company shall not be a party to or permit any such Business Combination or reclassification to occur unless such provisions are made as a part of the terms thereof.

(vi)Rounding of Calculations; Minimum Adjustments.  All calculations under this Section 12 shall be made to the nearest one-tenth (1/10th) of a cent or to the nearest one-hundredth (1/100th) of a share, as the case may be.  Any provision of this Section 12 to the contrary notwithstanding, no adjustment in the Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares into which this Warrant is exercisable shall be made if the amount of such adjustment would be less than $0.01 or one-tenth (1/10th) of a share of Common Stock, but any such amount shall be carried forward and an adjustment with respect thereto shall be made at the time of and together with any subsequent adjustment which, together with such amount and any other amount or amounts so carried forward, shall aggregate $0.01 or 1/10th of a share of Common Stock, or more.

(vii)Timing of Issuance of Additional Securities Upon Certain Adjustments.  In any case in which (a) the provisions of this Section 12 shall require that an adjustment (the “Subject Adjustment”) shall become effective immediately after a record date (the “Subject Record Date”) for an event and (b) the Warrantholder exercises this Warrant after the Subject Record Date and before the consummation of such event, the Company may defer until the consummation of such event issuing to such Warrantholder the incrementally additional shares of Common Stock or other property issuable upon such exercise by reason of the Subject Adjustment; provided, however, that the Company upon request shall promptly deliver to such Warrantholder a due bill or other appropriate instrument evidencing such Warrantholder’s right to receive such additional shares (or other property, as applicable), upon the consummation of such event.

(viii)Statement Regarding Adjustments.  Whenever the Exercise Price or the Warrant Shares into which this Warrant is exercisable shall be adjusted as provided in Section 12, the Company shall promptly prepare a statement showing in reasonable detail the facts requiring such adjustment and the Exercise Price that shall be in effect and the Warrant Shares into which this Warrant shall be exercisable after such adjustment, and cause a copy of such statement to be delivered to the Warrantholder as promptly as practicable after the event giving rise to the adjustment.

(ix)Notice of Adjustment Event.  In the event that the Company shall propose to take any action of the type described in this Section 12 (but only if the action of the type described in this Section 12 would result in an adjustment in the Exercise Price or the Warrant Shares into which this Warrant is exercisable or a change in the type of securities or property to be delivered upon exercise of this Warrant), the Company shall provide written notice to the Warrantholder, which notice shall specify the record date, if any, with respect to any such action and the approximate date on which such action is to take place.  Such notice shall also set forth the facts with respect thereto as shall be reasonably necessary to indicate the effect on the Exercise Price and the number, kind or class of shares or other securities or property which shall be deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant.  In the case of any action which would require the fixing of a record date, such notice shall be given at least 10 days prior to the date so fixed.  In case of all other action, such notice shall be given at least 10 days prior to the taking of such proposed action unless the Company reasonably determines in good faith that, given the nature of such action, the provision of such notice at least 10 days in advance is not reasonably practicable from a timing perspective, in which case such notice shall be given as far in advance prior to the taking of such proposed action as is reasonably practicable from a timing perspective.

(x)Adjustment Rules.  Any adjustments pursuant to this Section 12 shall be made successively whenever an event referred to herein shall occur.  If an adjustment in Exercise Price made hereunder would reduce the Exercise Price to an amount below par value of the Common Stock, then such adjustment in Exercise Price made hereunder shall reduce the Exercise Price to the par value of the Common Stock.

(xi)No Impairment.  The Company shall not, by amendment of its certificate of incorporation, bylaws or any other organizational document, or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company, but shall at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant.  In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Company shall not take or permit to be taken any action which would (a) increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect or (b) entitle the Warrantholder to an adjustment under this Section 12 if the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable after such action upon exercise of this Warrant in full (disregarding whether or not this Warrant is exercisable by its terms at such time), together with all shares of Common Stock then outstanding and all shares of Common Stock then issuable upon the exercise in full of any and all outstanding Equity Interests (disregarding whether or not any such Equity Interests are exercisable by their terms at such time) would exceed the total number of shares of Common Stock then authorized by its certificate of incorporation.

(xii)Proceedings Prior to Any Action Requiring Adjustment.  As a condition precedent to the taking of any action which would require an adjustment pursuant to this Section 12, the Company shall take any and all action which may be necessary, including obtaining regulatory or other governmental, New York Stock Exchange or other applicable securities exchange, corporate or stockholder approvals or exemptions, in order that the Company may thereafter validly and legally issue as fully paid and nonassessable all shares of Common Stock, or all other securities or other property, that the Warrantholder is entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant pursuant to this Section 12.

13.Beneficial Ownership Limitation.  

(i)Notwithstanding anything in this Warrant to the contrary, the Company shall not honor any exercise of this Warrant, and a Warrantholder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, to the extent that, after giving effect to an attempted exercise set forth on an applicable Notice of Exercise, such Warrantholder (together with such Warrantholder’s Affiliates, and any other Person whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Warrantholder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) or Section 16 of the Exchange Act, and any other applicable regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), including any “group” of which the Warrantholder is a member (the foregoing, “Attribution Parties”)) would beneficially own a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation.  Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, for purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Warrantholder and its Attribution Parties shall include the number of Warrant Shares issuable under the Notice of Exercise with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon (a) exercise of the remaining, unexercised portion of any Warrant beneficially owned by such Warrantholder or any of its Attribution Parties, and (b) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including any warrants) beneficially owned by such Warrantholder or any of its Attribution Parties that are subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise similar to the limitation contained herein.  Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, for purposes of 

	
		
	[***]
	Information has been omitted and submitted separately to the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.

this Section 13, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and any other applicable regulations of the Commission.  In addition, for purposes hereof, “group” has the meaning set forth in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the applicable regulations of the Commission.  For purposes of this Section 13, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Warrantholder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as stated in the most recent of the following:  (x) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual filing with the Commission, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company that is filed with the Commission, or (z) a more recent notice by the Company or the Company’s transfer agent to the Warrantholder setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding.  Upon the written request of a Warrantholder (which may be by email), the Company shall, within three (3) Trading Days thereof, confirm in writing to such Warrantholder (which may be via email) the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding.  In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to any actual conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including exercise of this Warrant, by such Warrantholder or its Attribution Parties since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was last publicly reported or confirmed to the Warrantholder.  The Company shall be entitled to rely on representations made to it by the Warrantholder in any Notice of Exercise regarding its Beneficial Ownership Limitation.  The Warrantholder acknowledges that the Warrantholder is solely responsible for any schedules or statements required to be filed by it in accordance with Section 13(d) or Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act.

(ii)The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall initially be 4.999% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Notice of Exercise (to the extent permitted pursuant to this Section 13); provided, however, that by written notice to the Company, which will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is given by the Warrantholder to the Company, the Warrantholder may waive or amend the provisions of this Section 13 to change the Beneficial Ownership Limitation to any other number, and the provisions of this Section 13 shall continue to apply.  Upon any such waiver or amendment to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation may not be further waived or amended by the Warrantholder without first providing the minimum written notice required by the immediately preceding sentence.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time following notice of a Change of Control Transaction under Section 12(v) with respect to a Change of Control Transaction that is pursuant to any tender offer or exchange offer (by the Company or another Person (other than the Warrantholder or any Affiliate of the Warrantholder)), the Warrantholder may waive or amend the Beneficial Ownership Limitation effective immediately upon written notice to the Company and may reinstitute a Beneficial Ownership Limitation at any time thereafter effective immediately upon written notice to the Company.  

(iii)Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 13, none of the provisions of this Section 13 shall restrict in any way the number of shares of Common Stock which the Warrantholder may receive or beneficially own in order to determine the amount of securities or other consideration that the Warrantholder may receive in the event of a Change of Control Transaction as contemplated in Section 12 of this Warrant.

14.Governing Law and Jurisdiction.  This Warrant shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without regard to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York.  In addition, each of the parties (a) submits to the personal jurisdiction and venue of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York or any New York State court sitting in the 

	
		
	[***]

Borough of Manhattan, City of New York and appellate courts having jurisdiction of appeals from any of the foregoing (the “Chosen Courts”), in the event any dispute (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) arises out of this Warrant or the transactions contemplated hereby, (b) agrees that it shall not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, and (c) agrees that it shall not bring any claim, action or proceeding relating to this Warrant or the transactions contemplated hereby in any court other than the Chosen Courts.  Each party agrees that service of process upon such party in any such claim, action or proceeding shall be effective if notice is given in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant.

15.Binding Effect.  This Warrant shall be binding upon any successors or assigns of the Company.

16.Amendments.  This Warrant may be amended and the observance of any term of this Warrant may be waived only with the written consent of the Company and the Warrantholder.

17.Notices.  Any notice, request, instruction or other document to be given hereunder by any party to the other shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given (a) if sent by registered or certified mail in the United States return receipt requested, upon receipt, (b) if sent by nationally recognized overnight air courier, one Business Day after mailing, (c) if sent by email or facsimile, with a copy mailed on the same day in the manner provided in clauses (a) or (b) of this Section 17 when transmitted and receipt is confirmed, or (d) if otherwise personally delivered, when delivered.  All notices hereunder shall be delivered as set forth below, or pursuant to such other instructions as may be designated in writing by the party to receive such notice.

RE:    Election to Purchase Common Stock

Schedule 1

Exception to Vesting upon a Change of Control Transaction

For the first six months following the date of the Transaction Agreement only with respect to a single transaction or series of related transactions, a Business Combination or other negotiated transaction approved by the Board of Directors shall not constitute a Change of Control Transaction so long as (1) the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such Business Combination or other negotiated transaction continue to hold no less than 40% of the fully diluted Common Stock after the consummation of such Business Combination or other negotiated transaction, (2) the Common Stock continues to be traded on the New York Stock Exchange and (3) unless otherwise agreed in writing by Amazon and the Company, the Public Float of the Company remains no less than 40% of the outstanding Common Stock.  With respect to any Business Combination or other negotiated transaction approved by the Board of Directors that satisfies the exception set forth in the foregoing sentence, the second sentence to the definition of Fair Market Value will not apply.  For the avoidance of doubt, if an exception occurs pursuant to the first sentence of this Schedule 1, any subsequent event or transaction resulting in (i) the Common Stock no longer being traded on the New York Stock Exchange, (ii) unless otherwise agreed in writing by Amazon and the Company, the Public Float of the Company being less than 40% of the outstanding Common Stock, or (iii) any Person acquiring or beneficially owning, directly or indirectly, 60% or more of the outstanding Equity Interests in the Company, will constitute a Change of Control Transaction.
