Article II

Number of Shares; Warrant Price; Duration; and Exercise of Warrant

 

Section 2.1     Number of Shares; Warrant Price; and Duration. This Warrant entitles the registered holder thereof, subject to the provisions hereof, to purchase from the Company at any time and from time to time prior to five (5) years after the date hereof, __________ shares of Common Stock for a price per share equal to $0.011 (the “Warrant Price”), as adjusted hereby from time to time, payable in full at the time of purchase. 

 

Section 2.2     Exercise.

 

(A)     This Warrant may be exercised, in whole or in part, by surrendering this Warrant at the principal office of the Company with the Election to Exercise form set forth at the end hereof duly executed, and by paying in full, the Warrant Price for each share of Common Stock as to which this Warrant is exercised. Such payment may be (i) in cash or by cashier’s or bank check, or (ii) by making a cashless exercise. 

 

(i)     Upon a cashless exercise, the Warrant Holder shall receive Common Stock on a net basis such that, without the payment of any funds, the Warrant Holder shall surrender this Warrant in exchange for the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product of (a) the number of shares of Common Stock as to which this Warrant is exercised, multiplied by (b) a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate Market Price of the Common Stock less the Warrant Price, and the denominator of which is such aggregate Market Price of the Common Stock. 

 

(ii)     In connection with a cashless exercise, the term “Market Price” shall mean at any applicable date: (a) if the Common Stock is at that time traded on a national securities exchange or NASDAQ market, then the last closing price of such security on the exchange or market on which such security is traded as reported by Bloomberg, or, if not so traded, then the average of the bid and asked prices of the market makers for such security as reported in the OTC Markets (formerly known as the “pink sheets”) or (b) in case no such reported sale takes place on such day, the average of the last reported sales prices, or average of the bid and asked prices, for the last three (3) trading days, as reported by Bloomberg, or (b) if the Common Stock is not so traded, then the fair market value of such Common Stock as reasonably determined by the Board of Directors of the Company and the Warrant Holder without any discount for lack of marketability or minority discount. If the Board of Directors of the Company and the holder are unable to agree upon the fair market value of the Common Stock, then the Board of Directors of the Company and the holder shall appoint a qualified appraiser who shall determine the fair market value of the Common Stock as provided in the preceding sentence. The cost of the appraiser shall be paid equally by the Company and the holder and the appraiser's determination shall be final.

 

(B)     As soon as practicable after the exercise or partial exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall cause to be issued to or upon the order of the holder of this Warrant a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Common Stock to which the Warrant Holder is entitled, registered in such name or names as may be directed by such Warrant Holder, and, if applicable, a substitute Warrant for the number of shares not exercised.

 

 

 

2

 

 

(C)     Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall not be required to issue any fraction of a share of Common Stock in connection with the exercise of this Warrant.

 

(D)     All shares of Common Stock issued upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and the Company shall pay all taxes related to the issuance thereof. The Company shall not be required, however, to pay any tax imposed in connection with any transfer involved in the issuance of a certificate for shares of Common Stock or any other securities in any name other than that of the Warrant Holder; and in such case, the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any such certificate until such tax shall have been paid.

 

(E)     Each person or entity in whose name any such certificate for shares of Common Stock is issued shall for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder of record of such shares on the date on which this Warrant was surrendered and payment of the Warrant Price and any applicable taxes was made, irrespective of the date of delivery of such certificate, except that if the date of such surrender and payment is a date when the stock transfer books of the Company are closed, such person or entity in whose name such certificate for shares of Common Stock is issued shall be deemed to have become the holder of such shares at the close of business on the next succeeding date on which the Company’s stock transfer books are open.

 

Article III

Section 3.1     Special Definitions. For the purposes of this Article III, the following definitions shall apply:

 

(A)     “Option” shall mean any right, option, or warrant to subscribe for, purchase, or otherwise acquire shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities.

 

(B)     “Original Issue Date” shall mean the date on which this Warrant is first issued.

 

(C)     “Convertible Securities” shall mean any evidence of indebtedness, shares, or other securities directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock.

 

(D)     “Additional Shares of Common Stock” shall mean all shares of Common Stock issued (or, pursuant to Section 3.2 hereof, deemed to be issued) by the Company after the Original Issue Date other than (i) shares of Common Stock issued to the holder of any of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, or Series D Preferred Stock issued prior to the date of this Warrant, or Series E Preferred Stock issued in the offering in connection with which this Warrant is issued, as a result of such Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, or Series E Preferred Stock being converted into Common Stock, and (ii) securities issued or granted pursuant to the Company’s 2012 Stock Incentive Plan or any subsequent equity compensation plans approved by the Company’s Board of Directors or Compensation Committee, including at least one of the directors elected or appointed by the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, and Series E Preferred Stock.

(E)     “Rights to Acquire Common Stock” (or “Rights”) shall mean all rights whenever issued by the Company to acquire Common Stock by exercise of a warrant, option, or similar call or conversion of any existing instruments, in either case for consideration fixed, in amount or by formula, as of the date of issuance.

 

Section 3.2     Issue of Securities Deemed Issue of Additional Shares of Common Stock. If the Company at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date shall issue any Options or Convertible Securities or other Rights to Acquire Common Stock, then the maximum number of shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instrument relating thereto without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise of such Options, Rights or, in the case of Convertible Securities, the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, shall be deemed to be Additional Shares of Common Stock (subject to the exclusions in Section 3.1(D)) issued as of the time of such issue.

 

Section 3.3     No Adjustment of Warrant Price or Number of Shares Issuable Upon Exercise. Except in the case of shares issued upon a stock split or combination as described in Section 3.4 or issued as a stock dividend described in Section 3.5, if the Company shall at any time after the Original Issue Date issue Additional Shares of Common Stock (including Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued pursuant to Section 3.2 hereof) without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Warrant Price, no adjustment shall be made to the Warrant Price or the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant. 

 

Section 3.4     Adjustment for Stock Splits and Combinations. If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date effect a subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately before that subdivision shall be proportionately increased. If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately before the combination shall be proportionately decreased. In the event of any such subdivision or combination, the Warrant Price shall be adjusted to an amount equal to the Warrant Price immediately prior to the occurrence of any such event multiplied by a fraction of which (A) the numerator is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such event, and (B) the denominator is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the adjustment. Any adjustment under this paragraph shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

 

Section 3.5     Adjustment for Certain Dividends and Distributions. In the event the Company at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date shall make or issue a dividend or other distribution payable in Additional Shares of Common Stock, then on each such occasion, (i) the Warrant Price shall be adjusted to equal the Warrant Price immediately prior to the occurrence of any such event multiplied by a fraction of which (A) the numerator is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such event, and (B) the denominator is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the adjustment, and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased as of the time of such issuance, to the product obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock originally issuable upon exercise of this Warrant by a fraction of which:

 

	 	
●
	
the numerator is the original Warrant Price, and

 

	 	
●
	
the denominator is the Warrant Price in effect immediately after the time of such adjustment.

Section 3.6     Adjustments for Other Dividends and Distributions. In the event the Company at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date shall make or issue a dividend or other distribution payable in securities of the Company other than shares of Common Stock, then and in each such event, unless waived by the Warrant Holder, provision shall be made so that the Warrant Holder shall receive upon exercise hereof in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable thereupon, the amount of securities of the Company that the Warrant Holder would have received had this Warrant been exercised on the date of such event and had thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the conversion date, retained such securities receivable by the Warrant Holder as aforesaid during such period given application to all adjustments called for during such period, under this Article III.

 

Section 3.7     Adjustment for Reclassification, Exchange, or Substitution. If the Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of stock, whether by capital reorganization, reclassification, or otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of shares or stock dividend provided for above, or a reorganization, merger, consolidation, share exchange or sale of assets provided for below), then and in each such event the holder of this Warrant shall have the right thereafter to exercise this Warrant for the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such reorganization, reclassification, or other change, by holders of the number of shares of Common Stock into which this Warrant might have been converted immediately prior to such reorganization, reclassification, or change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.

 

Section 3.8     Adjustment for Merger or Reorganization, etc. In case of any consolidation, merger, or share exchange of the Company with or into another corporation or the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to another person or entity, then this Warrant shall thereafter be convertible into the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property to which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant would have been entitled upon such consolidation, merger or sale; and, in such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors) shall be made in the application of the provisions in this Article III to the end that the provisions set forth in this Article III (including provisions with respect to changes in and other adjustments of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to any shares of stock or other property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant.

 

Section 3.9     No Impairment. The Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, share exchange, dissolution, issuance, 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 will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Article III and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the holder of this Warrant against impairment.

 

Section 3.10     Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant pursuant to this Article III, the Company and the Warrant Holder shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and shall jointly prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based and shall file a copy of such certificate with the Company’s corporate records. The Company shall, upon the written request at any time of the holder of this Warrant, furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a similar certificate setting forth (A) such adjustments and readjustments, (B) the Warrant Price then in effect, and (C) the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other property which then would be received upon the exercise of this Warrant. Despite such adjustment or readjustment, the form of this Warrant need not be changed in order for the adjustments or readjustments to be valued in accordance with the provisions hereof, which shall control.
