EXHIBIT A Form of Warrant

WARRANT AGREEMENT, dated as of December 14, 2023 (this “Agreement”), between ▇▇▇▇▇ Shipping Inc., a corporation incorporated under the laws of The Republic of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Islands (the “Company”), Computershare Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Computershare”), and its affiliate, Computershare Trust Company, N.A., a federally chartered trust company, collectively as Warrant Agent (the “Warrant Agent”) (each a “Party” and collectively, the “Parties”).

The Board of Directors has declared a distribution (the “Warrant Distribution”) to the holders of record of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on December 6, 2023 (such date and time, the “Distribution Record Date”), in the form of warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock. The Company desires to issue the warrants on the terms and conditions described herein (the “Warrants”) in satisfaction of the Warrant Distribution. Pursuant to the Warrant Distribution, each holder of record will receive one Warrant for every five shares of Common Stock (equaling 0.2 of a Warrant per share of Common Stock) as of the Distribution Record Date. If any fractional Warrant would otherwise be required to be issued or distributed, the number of Warrants to be issued to the relevant Holder will be rounded down to the nearest whole number and no cash or other adjustment will be made in lieu of the fraction of a Warrant so rounded down. The Warrants will be issued on or about December 14, 2023 (the date of the actual distribution, the “Issue Date”).

The Company desires the Warrant Agent to act on behalf of the Company in connection with the issuance, registration, transfer, exchange, exercise and cancellation of the Warrants as provided herein, and the Warrant Agent is willing to so act.

Each Party hereto agrees for the benefit of the other Party and for the equal and ratable benefit of the registered holders of the Warrants (the “Holders”):

ARTICLE II

FORM OF WARRANT; BENEFICIAL INTERESTS

Section 2.01 Issuance and Registration.

(a) Warrants. The Warrants shall initially be issued to the Warrant Agent on behalf of the registered holders of shares of Common Stock as of the Distribution Record Date, as reflected in the Company’s direct registration system for the Common Stock. The Warrant Agent shall allocate the Warrants to, and register the Warrants in the names of, such registered holders in accordance with the Company’s direct registration system or the Warrant Agent’s other book-entry procedures pursuant to an allocation schedule approved by the Company. Any Warrants registered through the Company’s direct registration system or the Warrant Agent’s other book-entry procedures shall be issued in uncertificated form and shall not be represented by Warrant Certificates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, some or all of the Warrants may, at initial issuance or any time thereafter, be represented by one or more permanent Global Warrants, in definitive, fully registered form with the global securities legend set forth in Exhibit A hereto (each, a “Global Warrant”). Any such Global Warrant shall be deposited on behalf of the relevant Holders with the Warrant Agent, as custodian for the Depositary (or with such other custodian as the Depositary may direct), registered in the name of the Depositary or a nominee of the Depositary, and duly executed by the Company and countersigned by the Warrant Agent as hereinafter provided.

(b) Definitive Warrants. Holders of Warrants or holders of beneficial interests in any Global Warrant will not be entitled to physical delivery of Definitive Warrants (except as provided in Section 2.05).

(c) Procedures for Global Warrants. This Section 2.01(c) shall apply only to any Global Warrant deposited with or on behalf of the Depositary.

(i) If any Warrants are to be represented by a Global Warrant, the Company shall execute and the Warrant Agent shall, in accordance with Section 2.02, countersign and deliver initially one or more Global Warrants that (a) shall be registered in the name of the Depositary for such Global Warrant or Global Warrants or of the nominee of the Depositary and (b) shall be delivered by the Warrant Agent to the

Depositary or pursuant to the Depositary’s instructions or held by the Warrant Agent as custodian for the Depositary.

(ii) Members of, or participants in, the Depositary (“Agent Members”) shall have no rights under this Agreement with respect to any Global Warrant held on their behalf by the Depositary or by the Warrant Agent as the custodian of the Depositary or under such Global Warrant, and the Depositary may be treated by the Company, the Warrant Agent and any agent of the Company or the Warrant Agent as the absolute owner of such Global Warrant for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Warrant Agent or any agent of the Company or the Warrant Agent from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary, or impair, as between the Depositary and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices of the Depositary governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of a beneficial interest in any Global Warrant.

(d) No Fractional Warrants. The Company shall not issue fractional Warrants or distribute Warrant Certificates which evidence fractional Warrants. If any fractional Warrant would otherwise be required to be issued or distributed pursuant to the Warrant Distribution, the Company or Warrant Agent, as applicable, shall round down the total number of Warrants to be issued to the relevant Holder to the nearest whole number and no cash or other adjustment will be made in lieu of the fraction of a Warrant so rounded down.

Section 2.02 Warrant Certificates. If any Warrant Certificates are issued hereunder, then at least one Officer shall sign such Warrant Certificates for the Company by manual, facsimile or portable document format (“PDF”) signature or by means of other electronic transmission.

(a) If an Officer whose signature is on a Warrant Certificate no longer holds that office at the time the Warrant Agent countersigns the Warrant Certificate, the Warrants evidenced by such Warrant Certificate shall be valid, nevertheless.

(b) At any time and from time to time after the execution of this Agreement, the Warrant Agent shall, upon receipt of a written order of the Company signed by an Officer of the Company, countersign, either by manual, facsimile, PDF signature or by means of other electronic transmission, and issue a Warrant Certificate evidencing the number of Warrants specified in such order. Such order shall specify the number of Warrants to be evidenced on the Warrant Certificate to be countersigned, the date on which such Warrant Certificate is to be countersigned, whether such Warrant Certificate is to be a Global Warrant or a Definitive Warrant, and the number of Warrants then authorized. Each Warrant shall be dated the date of its countersignature.

(c) The Warrants (whether or not evidenced by a Warrant Certificate) shall not be valid until registered on the Warrant Register.

Section 2.03 Warrant Register. The Warrants shall be issued in registered form only. Upon the receipt of all relevant information from the Company or its agents, the Warrant Agent shall keep a register (the “Warrant Register”) of the Warrants (and Warrant Certificates, if

applicable) and of their transfer and exchange. The Warrant Register shall show the names and addresses of the respective Holders and the date and number of Warrants owned by such Holders (as evidenced on the face of each of the Warrant Certificates, if applicable). The Holder of any Global Warrant will be the Depositary or a nominee in whose name the Global Warrant is registered.

The Company and the Warrant Agent may deem and treat the Person in whose name Warrants are registered in the Warrant Register as the absolute owner of such Warrants for all purposes and regardless of any notice to the contrary.

Section 2.04 Transfer and Exchange.

(a) Transfer and Exchange of Warrants.

(i) The transfer and exchange of Warrants or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the Company’s direct registration system or the Warrant Agent’s other book-entry procedures and, in the case of any Global Warrants, the Depositary, in each case in accordance with this Agreement and the procedures of the Warrant Agent and, as applicable, the Depositary therefor. The Company may instruct the Warrant Agent from time to time that Warrants held by a member of the Board of Directors, an Officer of the Company or an Affiliate of the Company are subject to restrictions on transfers or exchanges related to compliance with applicable securities laws, in which case the Warrant Agent shall not permit the transfer or exchange of such Warrants without the consent of the Company.

(ii) Except as set forth in Section 2.04(a)(iii), a Global Warrant may only be transferred as a whole, and not in part, and only by (x) the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary, (y) a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or (z) the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or its nominee.

(iii) In the event that a Global Warrant is exchanged and transferred for Definitive Warrants pursuant to Section 2.05, such Warrants may be exchanged only in accordance with such procedures as are substantially consistent with the provisions of this Section 2.04 and such other procedures as may from time to time be adopted by the Company.

(iv) The Warrant Agent may register the transfer of any Definitive Warrant upon written request of the Holder delivered to the Warrant Agent and surrender of the Warrant Certificates to be transferred, split up, combined or exchanged, together with the form of assignment and certificate duly executed and properly completed and such other documentation that the Company or the Warrant Agent may reasonably request, at the office of the Warrant Agent designated for such purpose. Any requested transfer of Warrants shall be accompanied by reasonable evidence of authority of the party making such request, which evidence shall include a signature guarantee from an eligible guarantor institution participating in a signature guarantee program approved by the Securities

Transfer Association. Upon any such transfer, one or more new Definitive Warrants representing an equal aggregate number of Definitive Warrants shall be issued and the transferred certificate shall be canceled.

(b) Cancellation or Adjustment of Global Warrant. At such time as all beneficial interests in a Global Warrant have been exchanged for Definitive Warrants, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, such Global Warrant shall be returned to the Depositary for cancellation or retained and canceled by the Warrant Agent. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Warrant is exchanged for Definitive Warrants, repurchased or canceled, the number of Warrants represented by such Global Warrant shall be reduced and an adjustment shall be made on the books and records of the Warrant Agent (if it is then the Warrant Custodian for such Global Warrant) with respect to such Global Warrant, by the Warrant Agent, to reflect such reduction.

(i) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute and the Warrant Agent shall countersign, by either manual, facsimile or PDF signature or by means of other electronic transmission, any Global Warrants and Definitive Warrants, if applicable, as required subject to the provisions of Section 2.02 and this Section 2.04.

(ii) No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange. Any transfer tax, assessments, or similar governmental charge payable in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange shall be paid by the Holder.

(iii) The Company may require payment from the Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer, split up, combination or exchange of Warrants. The Warrant Agent shall not have any duty or obligation to take any action under any section of this Agreement or any Warrant that requires the payment of taxes and/or charges unless and until the Warrant Agent is reasonably satisfied that all such payments have been made.

(iv) Prior to the due presentation for registration of transfer of any Warrant, the Company and the Warrant Agent may deem and treat the Person in whose name Warrants are registered as the absolute owner of such Warrants, and neither the Company nor the Warrant Agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

(v) All Warrants issued upon any transfer or exchange pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be valid obligations of the Company, entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement as the Warrants surrendered upon such transfer or exchange.

(d) No Obligation of the Warrant Agent. The Warrant Agent shall have no responsibility or obligation to any beneficial owner of a Global Warrant, an Agent Member or other Person with respect to the accuracy of the records of the Depositary or its nominee or of any participant or member thereof, with respect to any ownership interest in the Warrants or with

respect to the delivery to any participant, member, beneficial owner or other Person (other than the Depositary) of any notice, or the payment of any amount, under or with respect to such Warrants. All notices and communications to be given to the Holders and all payments to be made to Holders under the Warrants shall be given or made only to or upon the order of the registered Holders (which shall be the Depositary or its nominee in the case of a Global Warrant). The rights of beneficial owners in any Global Warrant shall be exercised only through the Depositary subject to the applicable rules and procedures of the Depositary. The Warrant Agent may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the Depositary with respect to its members, participants and any beneficial owners.

Section 2.05 Definitive Warrants.

(a) Subject to Section 2.05(e), beneficial interests in a Global Warrant deposited with the Depositary or with the Warrant Agent as custodian shall be transferred to the beneficial owners thereof in the form of Definitive Warrants in a number equal to the number of Warrants represented by such Global Warrant, in exchange for such Global Warrant, only if such transfer complies with Section 2.04 and (i) the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for such Global Warrant or if at any time the Depositary ceases to be a “clearing agency” registered under the Exchange Act and, in each such case, a successor depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days of such notice, or (ii) the Company, in its sole discretion, notifies the Warrant Agent in writing that it elects to cause the issuance of Definitive Warrants under this Agreement. In such event, the transfer, exchange or exercise of the Warrants shall be conducted in accordance with the customary procedures of the Warrant Agent.

(b) Any Global Warrant that is transferable to the beneficial owners thereof pursuant to this Section 2.05 shall be surrendered by the Depositary to the Warrant Agent, to be so transferred, in whole or from time to time in part, without charge, and the Warrant Agent shall countersign, by either manual, facsimile or PDF signature or by means of other electronic transmission, and deliver to each beneficial owner in the name of such beneficial owner, upon such transfer of each portion of such Global Warrant, Definitive Warrants evidencing a number of Warrants equivalent to such beneficial owner’s beneficial interest in the Global Warrant. The Warrant Agent shall register such transfer in the Warrant Register, and upon such transfer the surrendered Global Warrant shall be canceled by the Warrant Agent. Any such Definitive Warrants shall bear such restrictive legends as the Company may instruct.

(c) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.05(b), the registered Holder of a Global Warrant may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Agent Members and Persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action that a Holder is entitled to take under this Agreement or the Warrants.

(d) In the event of the occurrence of either of the events specified in Section 2.05(a), the Company will promptly make available to the Warrant Agent a reasonable supply of Definitive Warrants in definitive, fully registered form.

(e) The Depositary shall notify the Warrant Agent of the names and the amounts in which the Definitive Warrants will be issued. Neither the Company nor the Warrant Agent will be liable or responsible for any names or any amounts provided by the Depositary.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in lieu of issuing a Definitive Warrant to any Person, the Warrant Agent may, upon the Company’s instruction, register Warrants in the name of such Person through the Company’s direct registration system or the Warrant Agent’s other book-entry procedures.

Section 2.06 Replacement Certificates. If a mutilated Warrant Certificate is surrendered to the Warrant Agent or if the Holder of a Warrant Certificate provides proof reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Warrant Agent that the Warrant Certificate has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company shall issue and the Warrant Agent shall countersign, by either manual, facsimile or PDF signature or by means of other electronic transmission, a replacement Warrant Certificate representing an equivalent number of Warrants, if the reasonable requirements of the Warrant Agent are met and absent notice to Warrant Agent that such certificates have been acquired by a bona fide purchaser. Such Holder shall furnish an open penalty surety bond sufficient in the judgment of the Company and the Warrant Agent to protect the Company and the Warrant Agent from any loss that either of them may suffer if a Warrant Certificate is replaced. The Warrant Agent may, at its option, issue replacement Warrants for mutilated certificates upon presentation thereof without such indemnity. The Company and the Warrant Agent may charge the Holder for their expenses in replacing a Warrant Certificate. Every replacement Warrant Certificate evidences an additional obligation of the Company.

Section 2.07 Outstanding Warrants. Warrants outstanding at any time are all Warrants evidenced as outstanding in the Warrant Register (which, in the case of Warrants represented by Warrant Certificates, shall include all Warrant Certificates authenticated by the Warrant Agent excluding those canceled by it and those delivered to it for cancellation). A Warrant does not cease to be outstanding because an Affiliate of the Company holds the Warrant. A Warrant ceases to be outstanding if the Company holds the Warrant.

If a Warrant Certificate is replaced pursuant to Section 2.06, the Warrants evidenced thereby cease to be outstanding unless the Warrant Agent and the Company receive proof satisfactory to them that the replaced Warrant Certificate is held by a protected purchaser (as defined for purposes of the Delaware Uniform Commercial Code).

Section 2.08 Cancellation. In the event the Company shall purchase or otherwise acquire Definitive Warrants, the Company may, at its option, deliver the same to the Warrant Agent for cancellation.

The Warrant Agent and no one else shall cancel all Warrant Certificates surrendered for transfer, exchange, replacement, exercise or cancellation. The Company may not issue new Warrant Certificates to replace Warrant Certificates to the extent they evidence Warrants which have been exercised or Warrants which the Company has canceled.

Section 2.09 CUSIP Numbers. The Company has assigned “CUSIP” numbers in connection with the issuance of the Warrants and the Warrant Agent may use such “CUSIP” numbers in notices as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that any such notice shall state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Warrant Certificates or as contained in any notice and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Warrant Certificates.

ARTICLE III

EXERCISE TERMS

Section 3.01 Exercise.

(a) Each Warrant shall entitle the Holder thereof to purchase, for each Warrant evidenced thereby, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Warrant Exercise Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the relevant Exercise Date, subject to Section 3.06, at an exercise price equal to (for the avoidance of doubt, whether or not such Warrant is exercised during the Bonus Share Period) $4.00 per Warrant (the “Exercise Price”). Holders may exercise all or a portion of their Warrants or choose not to exercise any Warrants at all, or may otherwise sell or transfer their Warrants, in each case, in their sole and absolute discretion. Any Warrant exercised with an Exercise Date that is not in the Bonus Share Period will not be entitled to any Bonus Share Fraction.

(b) The Company will make a public announcement via press release of the Bonus Share Expiration Date (i) at least 20 Business Days prior to such date, in the case of the Company setting a Bonus Share Expiration Date and (ii) prior to market open on the Bonus Share Expiration Date in the case of a Bonus Share Price Condition.

(c) The number of shares of Common Stock issuable in respect of any exercise of Warrants represented by a Global Warrant shall be determined by the Depository (or, as may be agreed from time to time between the Calculation Agent and the Company, the Calculation Agent) in accordance with this Agreement; and provided further, however, that in the event the Company disagrees in good faith with any such calculation, the Company’s calculation shall be determinative and final and binding on the Warrant Agent, the Calculation Agent and the Holders. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable in respect of any exercise of Warrants represented through the Company’s direct registration system or the Warrant Agent’s other book-entry procedures shall be determined by the Warrant Agent (or, as may be agreed from time to time between the Calculation Agent and the Company, the Calculation Agent) in accordance with this Agreement; and provided further, however, that in the event the Company disagrees in good faith with any such calculation, the Company’s calculation shall be determinative and final and binding on the Warrant Agent, the Calculation Agent and the Holders.

Section 3.02 Exercise Period.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Warrants shall be exercisable at any time and from time to time on or after the Issue Date until the earlier of (x) 5:00

p.m. New York City time on the Expiration Date and (y) 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the Business Day prior to the Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holders will be able to exercise the Warrants only if (i) the Common Stock Shelf Registration Statement relating to the Warrant Shares is effective and the Exercise Date does not fall in an Exercise Suspension Period and (ii) the Warrant Shares are qualified for sale or exempt from qualification under the applicable securities laws of the states or other jurisdictions in which such Holders reside. The Company may instruct the Warrant Agent in writing from time to time that Warrants held by a member of the Board of Directors, an Officer of the Company or an Affiliate of the Company are subject to further restrictions on exercise related to compliance with applicable securities laws, in which case the Warrant Agent shall not permit the exercise of such Warrants without the written consent of the Company.

(b) Subject to the other provisions of this Section 3.02, unless an earlier Redemption Date has been set in accordance with Article VI, the Warrants will expire and cease to be exercisable at the close of business on December 14, 2026 (the “Expiration Date”).

Section 3.03 Expiration. A Warrant shall terminate and become void as of the earliest of (i) the close of business on the Expiration Date, (ii) upon payment of the Redemption Price on the Redemption Date and (iii) the time such Warrant is exercised.

Section 3.04 Manner of Exercise.

(a) Subject to Sections 3.02(b) and 3.03, prior to the earlier of (x) the close of business on the Expiration Date and (y) the close of business on the Business Day prior to the Redemption Date, Warrants may be exercised by a Holder in full or in part, on any Business Day (the “Exercise Date”), by

(i) (x) delivery to the Warrant Agent at its office of the related Warrant Certificate, in the case of Warrants issued in certificated form, (y) delivery of the Warrant through the procedures of the Warrant Agent in the case of Warrants represented through the Company’s direct registration system or the Warrant Agent’s other book-entry procedures or (z) delivery of the Warrant through the systems of the Depositary, in the case of Warrants issued in global form;

(ii) delivery to the Warrant Agent of an election to purchase Warrant Shares in the applicable form included in Exhibit A (an “Exercise Notice”), duly completed and signed by the Holder;

(iii) payment by check payable to the order of the Company or by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account of the Company (as designated by the Company by notice in writing to the Holders pursuant to Section 8.04) in an amount equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrants so exercised;

provided that if any of (i), (ii) or (iii) above has occurred on or after the close of business on any day, it shall instead be deemed to have occurred on the immediately following Business Day; and

provided further that the Exercise Date shall be the first Business Day on which all of (i), (ii) and (iii) above have occurred, as determined by the Company in consultation with the Warrant Agent.

(b) In the case of a Global Warrant, any Person with a beneficial interest in such Global Warrant shall effect compliance with the requirements in Section 3.04(a)(i), (ii) and (iii) above through the relevant Agent Member in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary. If the Warrants are received or deemed to be received after the earlier of (x) the close of business on the Expiration Date and (y) the close of business on the Business Day prior to the Redemption Date, the exercise thereof will be null and void and any funds delivered to the Warrant Agent will be returned to the Holder as soon as practicable. In no event will interest accrue on funds deposited with the Warrant Agent in respect of an exercise or attempted exercise of Warrants.

(c) In the case of a Global Warrant, whenever some but not all of the Warrants represented by such Global Warrant are exercised in accordance with the terms thereof and of this Agreement, such Global Warrant shall be surrendered by the Holder to the Warrant Agent, which shall cause an adjustment to be made to such Global Warrant so that the number of Warrants represented thereby will be equal to the number of Warrants theretofore represented by such Global Warrant less the number of Warrants then exercised. The Warrant Agent shall thereafter promptly return such Global Warrant to the Holder or its nominee or custodian.

(d) In the case of a Definitive Warrant, whenever some but not all of the Warrants represented by such Definitive Warrant are exercised in accordance with the terms thereof and of this Agreement, the Holder shall be entitled, at the request of the Holder, to receive from the Company within a reasonable time, and in any event not exceeding ten (10) Business Days, a new Definitive Warrant in substantially identical form for the number of Warrants equal to the number of Warrants theretofore represented by such Definitive Warrant less the number of Warrants then exercised.

(e) If a Warrant Certificate shall have been exercised in full, the Warrant Agent shall promptly cancel such certificate following its receipt from the Holder or the Depositary, as applicable.

(f) If a Common Stock Shelf Registration Statement is not effective at any time or from time to time for any reason, the right to exercise Warrants shall be automatically suspended until such Common Stock Shelf Registration Statement becomes effective as specified in Section 5.01.

Section 3.05 Issuance of Warrant Shares.

(a) Subject to Section 3.02(a), upon any exercise of Warrants in compliance with this Agreement, the Company shall issue and cause the transfer agent for the Common Stock (the “Stock Transfer Agent,” which may be the Warrant Agent) to cause to be registered in the Company’s register of shareholders via the direct registration system a number of full Warrant Shares so purchased upon the exercise of such Warrants (determined in accordance with Section 3.06) or Units of Reference Property to which it is entitled, registered or otherwise, to the Holder or Holders entitled to receive the same or upon the written order of the Holder(s) in such

name or names as the Holder(s) may designate (including any depositary institution so designated by a Holder). In no event shall the Company have the right or be required to settle the exercise of Warrants through delivery of cash in lieu of Common Stock.

(b) Such Warrant Shares or Units of Reference Property shall be delivered as soon as commercially practicable following the Exercise Date, subject to Section 4.02(b).

(c) The Company hereby instructs the Warrant Agent to record cost basis for newly issued shares as the sum of (x) the Implied Per Share Exercise Price plus (y) the Holder’s cost basis in the exercised Warrant, if any, which the Warrant Agent shall request of the Holder, if necessary.

(d) The Depository’s (or the Calculation Agent’s, as applicable) determination of the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued on any exercise of Warrants and the validity of such exercise, pursuant to this Agreement, shall govern and the Warrant Agent shall have no duty or obligation to investigate or confirm whether such determinations are accurate or correct.

(e) The Person in whose name any shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon exercise of a Warrant shall be treated as a stockholder of record of such shares as of the close of business on the relevant Exercise Date, assuming the satisfaction of all conditions, including the payment of the Exercise Price. Upon the exercise of any Warrants, such Person shall no longer be a Holder of such Warrants as of the close of business on the relevant Exercise Date.

Section 3.06 Fractional Warrant Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue fractional shares of Common Stock on the exercise of Warrants or pay cash in lieu thereof. The number of full shares of Common Stock that shall be issuable upon an exercise of Warrants by a Holder at any time shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock which may be purchased pursuant to the Warrants being exercised by that Holder pursuant to any one Exercise Notice. If any fraction of a share of Common Stock would be issuable upon the exercise of Warrants, the total number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the relevant Holder shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number and no cash or other adjustment will be made in lieu of the fraction of a share so rounded down.

Section 3.07 Reservation of Warrant Shares.

(a) The Company shall at all times keep reserved out of its authorized Common Stock a number of shares of Common Stock sufficient to provide for the exercise of all outstanding Warrants, including the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued pursuant to the Bonus Share Fraction. The Company will keep a copy of this Agreement on file with the Stock Transfer Agent and will furnish to such Stock Transfer Agent a copy of all notices of adjustments (and certificates related thereto) transmitted to each Holder.

(b) The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares that may be issued upon proper exercise of Warrants (including payment of the Exercise Price) shall, upon issue, be fully paid, nonassessable, free of preemptive rights.

(c) The Company shall provide an opinion of counsel which shall state that all Warrants and Warrant Shares, as applicable, (i) were offered, sold or issued as part of an offering that was registered in compliance with the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act (as the case may be), (ii) were issued in compliance with all applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws, and (iii) are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

Section 3.08 Adjustments of Prices. Whenever any provision of this Agreement requires the Calculation Agent to calculate the average of the daily VWAPs or the Last Reported Sale Prices over a span of multiple days (including, without limitation, for determining the Average Market Price), if the Calculation Agent determines in its sole discretion that it is able to make such adjustment in its capacity as Calculation Agent, the Calculation Agent shall make appropriate adjustments, if any, to each to account for any adjustment to the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate that becomes effective, or any event requiring an adjustment to the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate where the Ex-Date or effective date, as the case may be, of the event occurs, at any time during or after the period when the daily VWAPs or the Last Reported Sale Prices are to be calculated. If the Calculation Agent is not able to make such adjustment, the Company may make such adjustment or appoint an Independent Advisor.

ARTICLE IV

ADJUSTMENT AND NOTICE PROVISIONS

Section 4.01 Adjustments.

Subject to the provisions of this Article IV, the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate shall be subject to adjustment, without duplication, as follows, except that the Company shall not make any such adjustments if each Holder has the opportunity to participate, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the shares of Common Stock and solely as a result of holding the Warrants in any of the transactions described in this Section 4.01, without having to exercise such Holder’s Warrants, as if such Holder held a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product (rounded down to the nearest whole multiple of a share of Common Stock) of (i) the Warrant Exercise Rate in effect on the record date for such transaction and (ii) the number of Warrants held by it on such record date:

(a) Stock Dividends, Splits, Subdivisions, Reclassifications and Combinations. If the Company shall (i) exclusively issue shares of Common Stock to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock as a dividend or distribution on shares of the Common Stock, (ii) subdivide or reclassify the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, or (iii) combine, consolidate or reclassify the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

where:

	=	the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate in effect at the open of business on the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution, or at the open of business on the effective date of such subdivision, combination, consolidation or reclassification, as applicable;
	=	the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution, or immediately prior to open of business on the effective date of such subdivision, combination, consolidation or reclassification, as applicable;
	=	the number of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such dividend, distribution, subdivision, combination, consolidation or reclassification, as applicable;
	=	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution or immediately prior to the open of business on the effective date of such subdivision, combination, consolidation or reclassification, as applicable (before giving effect to any such dividend, distribution, or subdivision, consolidation, combination or reclassification, as applicable).

Any adjustment made under this clause (a) shall become effective at the open of business on such Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution, or at the open of business on the effective date for such subdivision, consolidation, combination or reclassification, as applicable. If an adjustment to the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate is made in respect of any dividend or distribution of the type described in this clause (a) but such dividend or distribution, subdivision, consolidation, combination or reclassification is not so paid or made, the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to pay or make such dividend or distribution, subdivision, consolidation, combination or reclassification, to the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate that would then be in effect at such time had no such adjustment been made.

(b) Rights Issues. If the Company issues to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock any rights, options or warrants entitling them, for a period of not more than 45 calendar days after the announcement date of such issuance, to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Common Stock at a price per share that is less than the arithmetic average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock on each Trading Day comprised in the period of 10 consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance, the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

where:

	=	the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate in effect at the open of business on the Ex-Date for such issuance;
	=	the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Date for such issuance;
	=	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Date for such issuance;
	=	the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants; and
	=	the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, divided by the arithmetic average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock on each Trading Day comprised in the period of 10 consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding the date of announcement of the issuance of such rights, options or warrants.

Any adjustment to the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate made under this clause (b) shall be made whenever any such rights, options or warrants are issued and shall become effective at the open of business on the Ex-Date for such issuance. To the extent that shares of the Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights, options or warrants, the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate shall be decreased to the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate that would then be in effect had the increase with respect to the issuance of such rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered. If an adjustment to the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate is made in respect of any such issuance of rights, options or warrants but such rights, options or warrants are not so issued, the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to issue such rights, options or warrants, to the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate that would then be in effect at such time had no such adjustment been made.

For purposes of this clause (b), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle the holders of the Common Stock to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Common Stock at less than such arithmetic average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock on each Trading Day comprised in the period of 10 consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding the date of announcement for such issuance, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise or conversion

thereof, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors.

(i) Distributions Other than Spin-Offs. If the Company makes a distribution to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock, of its Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, other assets or property of the Company, or rights, options or warrants to acquire its Capital Stock or other securities, excluding:

(1) any dividends, distributions or issuances described in clause (a) above or clause (b) above;

(2) any dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash described in clause (c) below;

(3) any dividends or distributions in connection with a business combination, reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, sale, lease or other disposition resulting in the change in the securities or property receivable upon the exercise of a warrant as described in Section 4.03;

(4) any rights issued pursuant to a shareholders’ rights plan adopted by the Company, other than as described in clause (e); and

(5) any Spin-Offs described below in Section 4.01(c)(ii),

then the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

where:

	=	the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate in effect at the open of business on the Ex-Date for such distribution;

	=	the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Date for such distribution;

	=	the arithmetic average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock on each Trading Day comprised in the period of ten consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding the Ex-Date for such distribution; and

	=	the Fair Market Value, as of the open of business on the Ex-Date for such distribution, of the shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, assets or property of the Company, cash, rights or warrants distributed with respect to each outstanding share of Common Stock.

Any adjustment to the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate under this clause (c)(i) shall be become effective at the open of business on the Ex-Date for such distribution.

(ii) Spin-Offs. With respect to an adjustment pursuant to this clause (b) where there has been a payment of a dividend or other distribution by the Company to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock in shares of Capital Stock of any class or series, or similar equity interests, of or relating to a subsidiary or other business unit of the Company that will be, upon distribution, listed or quoted on a U.S. national or regional securities exchange (a “Spin-Off”), then the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

where:

= the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate in effect at the open of business on the Ex-Date of the Spin-Off;

= the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Date of the Spin-Off;

= the arithmetic average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Capital Stock or similar equity interest distributed to holders of the Common Stock applicable to one share of Common Stock on each day which is a Trading Day for both the Common Stock and the Capital Stock or similar equity interest so distributed (each, a “Valuation Trading Day”) comprised in the period of ten consecutive Valuation Trading Days commencing on the Ex-Date for such Spin-Off (or, if such Ex-Date is not a Valuation Trading Day, commencing on the immediately following Valuation Trading Day) (such period, the “Valuation Period”); and

= the arithmetic average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock on each Trading Day comprised in the Valuation Period.

Any adjustment to the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate under this clause (c)(ii) shall be made immediately after the close of business on the last day of the Valuation Period, but shall become effective at the open of business on the Ex-Date for the Spin-Off, subject to Section 4.02(b).

If an adjustment to the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate is made in respect of any distribution of the type described in this clause (c) but such distribution is not so made, the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to make such distribution, to the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate that would then be in effect at such time had no such adjustment been made.

(d) Cash Dividends or Distributions. If any cash dividend or distribution is paid to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock, then the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

where:

= the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate in effect at the open of business on the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution; and

= the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution;

= the arithmetic average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock on each Trading Day comprised in the period of ten consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution;

= the amount in cash per share the Company distributes to holders of the Common Stock;

Any adjustment to the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate made under this clause (iv) shall become effective at the open of business on the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution. If an adjustment to the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate is made in respect of any dividend or distribution of the type described in this clause (d) but such dividend or distribution is not so paid, the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to pay such dividend or distribution, to the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate that would then be in effect at such time had no such adjustment been made.

(e) Shareholder Rights Plan. If the Company has a shareholder rights plan, including the Company Rights Plan, in effect upon exercise hereof, each share of Common Stock, if any, issued upon such exercise shall be entitled to receive the appropriate number of rights, if any, and the certificates representing the Common Stock issued upon such exercise shall bear such legends, if any, in each case as may be provided by the terms of any such shareholder rights plan, as the same may be amended from time to time. However, if, prior to any exercise, the rights have separated from the shares of Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of the applicable shareholder rights plan so that the Holders of Warrants would not be entitled to receive any rights in respect of Common Stock, if any, issuable upon exercise, the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate shall be adjusted at the time of separation as if the Company had made a distribution to all holders of its Common Stock as provided in Section 4.01(b), subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights.

Section 4.02 Calculation of Adjustments; Timing of Issuance of Additional Warrant Shares Upon Certain Adjustments; Adjustment Rules.

(a) All adjustments to the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate under Section 4.01 shall be made by the Calculation Agent to the nearest whole multiple of 0.00001 (with 0.000005 being rounded upwards) share of Common Stock.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Warrants, if the Exercise Date in respect of any exercise of Warrants falls after the record date for any Spin-Off and on or before the last day of the relevant Valuation Period, delivery of the shares of Common Stock issuable (or amount of cash payable, as applicable) pursuant to such exercise shall occur as soon as practicable after the last day of such Valuation Period.

(c) Any adjustments pursuant to Section 4.01 shall be made successively whenever an event referred to therein shall occur. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Warrants, if an adjustment to the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate made under Section 4.01 would reduce the Implied Per Share Exercise Price in effect on the date on which such adjustment becomes effective to an amount below the par value of the Common Stock, then such adjustment to the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate shall instead increase (or, where applicable, maintain) the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate rounded to such whole multiple of 0.00001 share of Common Stock which is such that the Implied Per Share Exercise Price in effect at such time such adjustment becomes effective is equal to the par value of the Common Stock (or, if no such Warrant Exercise Rate is capable of being so determined, most nearly equal to (but greater than) the par value of the Common Stock).

Section 4.03 Business Combinations and Reorganizations. In case of any Business Combination or reclassification of Common Stock (other than a reclassification of Common Stock referred to in Section 4.01), the Holder’s right to receive Warrant Shares upon exercise of a Warrant shall be converted into the right to exercise a Warrant to acquire, per each Warrant, the number of shares or other securities or property (including cash) that a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Warrant Exercise Rate (in effect at the time of such Business Combination or reclassification) immediately prior to such Business Combination or reclassification would have been entitled to receive upon consummation of such Business Combination or reclassification (the amount of such shares, other securities or property in respect of a share of Common Stock being herein referred to as a “Unit of Reference Property”); and in any such case, if necessary, the provisions set forth herein with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Holder shall be appropriately adjusted so as to be applicable, as nearly as may reasonably be achievable, to the Holder’s right to exercise such Warrant in exchange for a Unit of Reference Property pursuant to this paragraph. If the Business Combination causes the Common Stock to be converted into, or exchanged for, the right to receive more than a single type of consideration (determined based in part upon any form of shareholder election), then the composition of the Unit of Reference Property into which the Warrants will be exercisable shall be deemed to be the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration actually received by the holders of Common Stock.

Section 4.04 Notice of Adjustments. Whenever any adjustment to the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate is made pursuant to this Article IV, the Company shall cause notice of such adjustment to be delivered to the Warrant Agent as soon as practicable following the effective date of such adjustment, such notice to include in reasonable detail (i) the reason for the adjustment,

(ii) the computation of any adjustments, and (iii) the new or amended exercise terms, including, as applicable, the adjusted Basic Warrant Exercise Rate, the adjusted Bonus Share Fraction and the resulting Warrant Exercise Rate or the number of shares or the Units of Reference Property purchasable upon exercise of each Warrant after giving effect to such adjustment. The calculations, adjustments and determinations included in the Company’s notice shall, absent manifest error, be final and binding on the Company, the Warrant Agent and the Holders. The Warrant Agent shall be entitled to rely on such notice and any adjustment therein contained and the Warrant Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any such adjustment unless and until it shall have received such notice. The Warrant Agent shall have no obligation under any section of this Agreement to determine whether an adjustment is required or to calculate any of the adjustments set forth herein. The Warrant Agent shall as soon as practicable after receipt of such notice from the Company (which notice must specifically direct the Warrant Agent to perform the mailing) cause a similar notice to be delivered to each Holder.

Section 4.05 Adjustment to Warrant Certificate. The form of Warrant Certificate need not be changed because of any adjustment made pursuant to this Article IV, and Warrant Certificates issued after such adjustment may state the same Warrant Exercise Rate as are stated in any Warrant Certificates issued prior to such adjustment. The Company, however, may at any time in its sole discretion make any change in the form of Warrant Certificate that it may deem appropriate to give effect to such adjustments and that does not affect the substance of the Warrant Certificate, and any Warrant Certificate thereafter issued or countersigned, whether in exchange or substitution for an outstanding Warrant Certificate or otherwise, may be in the form as so changed. For the avoidance of doubt, no change to the Warrant Certificate as a result of an adjustment pursuant to this Article IV shall require the consent of the Holders of the Warrants or the Warrant Agent.

Section 4.06 Amendments.

(a) The Company and the Warrant Agent, without the consent of the Holders, may from time to time and at any time amend this Agreement and/or the Warrant Certificate, which approvals of amendments to this Agreement by the Company and the Warrant Agent in each case shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, for one or more of the following purposes:

(i) to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency;

(ii) to provide for the assumption by a successor company in any Business Combination;

(iii) to extend or postpone the Expiration Date;

(iv) to decrease the Exercise Price or increase the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate or the Bonus Share Fraction;

(v) to reinstate a Bonus Share Period after the Bonus Share Expiration Date;

(vi) to provide for net share settlement upon exercise of the Warrants;

(vii) to provide for an alternate method of adjustment of the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate in respect of any distribution made to all or substantially all the holders of the Common Stock in the event the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that the provisions of Article IV do not operate to appropriately adjust the Basic Warrant Exercise Rate for such distribution;

(viii) to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder in any material respect;

(ix) to provide for a successor Warrant Agent or Calculation Agent;

(x) in connection with any Business Combination, to provide that the Warrants are exercisable for Units of Reference Property; or

(xi) to conform the provisions of this Agreement or the Warrant Certificate to the “Description of the Warrants” section of the prospectus supplement relating to the issuance and sale of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrants.

Any amendment authorized by the provisions of this Section 4.06(a) may be executed by the Company and the Warrant Agent without the consent of the Holders of any of the Warrants at the time outstanding, notwithstanding any of the provisions of Section 4.06(b).

(b) With the written consent of the Holders of a majority of the then outstanding Warrants, the Company may from time to time amend this Agreement and/or the Warrant Certificate in a manner that has a material adverse effect on the interests of any of the Holders. In determining whether the Holders of the required number of Warrants have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, only Warrants outstanding at the time shall be considered in any such determination, and Warrants known to the Warrant Agent to be owned by the Company shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding for such purpose.

ARTICLE V

REGISTRATION OF WARRANT SHARES

Section 5.01 Effectiveness of Registration Statement. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause a shelf registration statement (including, at the Company’s election, an existing registration statement or a replacement thereof), filed pursuant to Rule 415 (or any successor provision) of the Securities Act, covering the issuance of Warrant Shares to the Holders upon exercise of the Warrants by the Holders thereof (the “Common Stock Shelf Registration Statement”) to, subject to certain exceptions, (i) become effective as promptly as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement and (ii) remain effective until the earlier of (x) such time as all Warrants have been exercised and (y) the earlier of the Expiration Date and the Redemption Date. The Company shall promptly inform the Warrant Agent of any change in the status of the effectiveness or availability of the Common Stock Shelf Registration Statement. For the avoidance of doubt, no Warrants shall be exercisable at any time until a Common Stock Shelf Registration Statement becomes effective. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Common Stock Shelf Registration Statement is not effective at any time or from time to time for any reason, the right to exercise Warrants shall be automatically suspended until such Common Stock Shelf Registration Statement becomes effective (any such period, an “Exercise Suspension Period”). The Company shall provide notice by press release, with a copy to the Warrant Agent, of any Exercise Suspension Period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) no Bonus Share Expiration Date, and no calculation of the VWAP for purposes of determining the Bonus Share Expiration Date, shall occur during any Exercise Suspension Period, and (ii) if the Expiration Date or a Redemption Date would otherwise fall in an Exercise Suspension Period, the Expiration Date or the Redemption Date, as the case may be, shall be extended by the number of days comprised in such Exercise Suspension Period.

Section 5.02 Suspension. The Company shall be entitled to suspend the availability of the Common Stock Shelf Registration Statement from time to time if the Board of Directors determines in the exercise of its reasonable judgment that such suspension is necessary and provides notice that such determination was made to the Holders of the Warrants; provided, however, that (i) if the Company exercises such right in the 90 consecutive-day period immediately prior to the earlier of the Expiration Date and the Redemption Date, the Expiration Date or the Redemption Date, as the case may be, shall be delayed by the number of days during such 90-day period for which the availability of the Common Stock Shelf Registration Statement was suspended and (ii) in no event shall the Company be required to disclose the business purpose for such suspension if the Company determines in good faith that such business purpose must remain confidential.

Section 5.03 Expenses. Subject to Section 2.04(c)(ii), all expenses incident to the Company’s performance of or compliance with its obligations under this Article V relating to the issuance of the Warrant Shares will be borne by the Company, including without limitation: (i) all SEC, stock exchange or Financial Industry Regulatory Authority registration and filing fees, (ii) all fees and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with the compliance with state securities or blue sky laws, (iii) all expenses of any Persons incurred by or on behalf of the Company with the prior written consent of the Company in preparing or assisting in preparing, printing and distributing the Common Stock Shelf Registration Statement or any other registration statement, prospectus, any amendments or supplements thereto and other documents relating to the performance of and compliance with this Article V, (iv) the fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and (v) the fees and disbursements of the independent public accountants of the Company.

Section 5.04 Delivery of Documents to Holders. If requested in advance by the Company, the Warrant Agent agrees that concurrently with the issuance of Warrant Shares to any Holder and upon exercise of Warrants by any Holder, the Warrant Agent shall (unless otherwise instructed by the Company), at the Company’s expense, deliver a prospectus relating to the Warrant Shares (a “Prospectus”) to such Holder or such other notice or communication regarding the Warrants or the Warrant Shares as the Company may instruct. The Company shall furnish to the Warrant Agent sufficient copies of such Prospectus or such other notice or communication to satisfy this obligation.

ARTICLE VI

REDEMPTION

Section 6.01 Redemption. At its sole option, the Company may elect to redeem, the Warrants at any time following the last day of the first 30 consecutive Trading Day period in which the daily VWAPs Common Stock has been at least equal to the then applicable Redemption Trigger Price for at least 20 Trading Days (whether or not consecutive) (the “Redemption Price Condition”). The Company may redeem the Warrants at its sole option at any time after the Redemption Price Condition has first been met, even if the trading price of the Common Stock subsequently declines. The “Redemption Price” shall be $0.001 per Warrant.

Section 6.02 Redemption Notice. In case the Company exercises its right to redeem all the Warrants pursuant to Section 6.01, it shall fix a date for redemption (the “Redemption Date”) and shall issue a press release giving notice of such redemption (the “Redemption Notice”) not less than 20 calendar days prior to the Redemption Date. The Redemption Date must be a Business Day. The Redemption Notice, if issued in the manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. The Redemption Notice shall specify (i) the Redemption Date, (ii) the Redemption Price, (iii) that on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price will become due and payable with respect to each Warrant, and (iv) that Holders may exercise their Warrants until 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date. A Redemption Notice shall be irrevocable.

Section 6.03 Payment of Redeemed Warrants. Prior to the open of business on the Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Warrant Agent an amount of cash (in immediately available funds if deposited on the Redemption Date), sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of all of the Warrants outstanding on the Redemption Date. Subject to receipt of funds by the Warrant Agent, payment for the Warrants to be redeemed shall be made on the Redemption Date. The Warrant Agent shall, promptly after such payment and upon written demand by the Company, return to the Company any funds in excess of the Redemption Price.

Upon the appointment as aforesaid of a successor Warrant Agent and acceptance by the successor Warrant Agent of such appointment, the Warrant Agent shall cease to be Warrant Agent hereunder.

(d) Successor to Expressly Assume Duties. Any successor Warrant Agent appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to its predecessor and to the Company an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon such successor Warrant Agent, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights and obligations of such predecessor with like effect as if originally named as Warrant Agent hereunder, and such predecessor, upon payment of its charges and disbursements then unpaid, shall thereupon become obligated to transfer, deliver and pay over, and such successor Warrant Agent shall be entitled to receive, all monies, securities and other property on deposit with or held by such predecessor, as Warrant Agent hereunder; provided that, the predecessor Warrant Agent shall not be required to make any additional expenditure or assume any additional liability in connection with the foregoing.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, issuance by the Company of a press release in accordance with its customary procedures or as prescribed by this Agreement shall satisfy any requirement to provide public notice or notice in writing or by email under this Agreement (except for notices required to be delivered to the Warrant Agent).

Section 8.04 Governing Law. THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THIS AGREEMENT, THE WARRANT CERTIFICATES AND THE WARRANTS.

Section 8.08 Withholding Rights. In the event that the Company, the Warrant Agent or their agents determine that they are obligated to withhold or deduct any tax or other governmental charge under any applicable law on behalf of a Holder (whether upon the distribution of the Warrants under this Agreement, upon any adjustment made pursuant to Article IV, upon exercise or otherwise), the Company, the Warrant Agent or their agents shall be entitled, but not obligated, to deduct and withhold such amount by withholding a portion or all of the Warrants or Warrant

Shares otherwise deliverable or by otherwise using any property (including, without limitation, Warrants, Warrant Shares or cash) that would otherwise be delivered to or is owned by such Holder, in each case in such amounts as they deem necessary to meet their withholding obligations, and shall also be entitled, but not obligated, to sell all or a portion of such withheld Warrants, Warrant Shares or such other property by public or private sale in such amounts and in such manner as they deem necessary and practicable to pay such taxes and charges. In such case, (i) the Company, the Warrant Agent or their agents, as applicable, shall remit to the applicable tax or other authority the required withholding amount or other charge, and (ii) any withheld amounts (and, if applicable in connection with adjustments pursuant to Article IV, other property) shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been distributed to the Holders in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

WARRANTS TO PURCHASE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK OF
▇▇▇▇▇ SHIPPING INC.

THIS CERTIFIES THAT [ ], or its registered assigns, is the registered holder of the number of Warrants set forth above (the “Warrants”). Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof (the “Holder”), at its option and subject to the provisions contained herein and in the Warrant Agreement referred to below, to purchase from ▇▇▇▇▇ Shipping Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of The Republic of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Islands (including any successor thereto, the “Company”) a number of shares of common stock, par value of $0.01 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”) equal to the Warrant Exercise Rate (which is initially one (1) plus, in the Bonus Share Period, the initial Bonus Share Fraction, i.e., one half (0.5)) at an exercise price of $ (the “Exercise Price”), as described in the Warrant Agreement. This Warrant Certificate shall terminate and become void as of the earlier of (x) 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Expiration Date, (y) upon payment of the Redemption Price on the Redemption Date, (z) or upon the exercise hereof as to all the shares of Common Stock subject hereto. The number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in the Warrant Agreement.

This Warrant Certificate is issued under and in accordance with a Warrant Agreement, dated as of December , 2023 (the “Warrant Agreement”), between the Company and Computershare Inc. and Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (collectively, the “Warrant Agent,” which term includes any successor Warrant Agent under the Warrant Agreement), and is subject to the terms and provisions contained in the Warrant Agreement, to all of which terms and provisions the Holder of this Warrant Certificate consents by acceptance hereof. The Warrant Agreement is hereby incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof. Reference is hereby made to the Warrant Agreement for a full statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and obligations of the Company, the Warrant Agent and the Holders of the Warrants. In the event of an inconsistency between the terms of this Warrant Certificate and the Warrant Agreement, the terms of the Warrant Agreement shall prevail. The Company shall not amend any provisions of the Warrant Certificate without the prior consent of the Warrant Agent, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Warrant Agreement. A copy of the Warrant Agreement may be obtained for inspection by the Holder hereof upon written request to the Warrant Agent, Computershare Trust Company, N.A., ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇.

This Warrant is redeemable at the option of the Company on not less than 20 calendar days’ notice (any such date of redemption, the “Redemption Date”) at a price of 1/10 of $0.01 per Warrant in the circumstances set forth in the Warrant Agreement.

Subject to the terms of the Warrant Agreement, the Warrants may be exercised in whole or in part no later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on any Business Day (the “Exercise Date”), in accordance with Section 3.04 of the Warrant Agreement; provided however, that no Warrant

shall be exercisable after the earlier of (x) 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the Expiration Date and (y) 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the Business Day prior to the Redemption Date.

If the date specified as the Exercise Date is not a Business Day, the Warrants will be deemed to be received and exercised on the next succeeding Business Day. If a notice of Exercise of Warrants is received or deemed to be received after the earlier of (x) 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the Expiration Date and (y) 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the Business Day prior to the Redemption Date, the exercise thereof will be null and void and any funds delivered to the Warrant Agent will be returned to the Holder as soon as practicable. In no event will interest accrue on funds deposited with the Warrant Agent in respect of an exercise or attempted exercise of Warrants.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, holders of Warrants will be able to exercise their Warrants only if the Common Stock Shelf Registration Statement relating to the Warrant Shares is effective and not subject to suspension pursuant to the Warrant Agreement and such securities are qualified for sale or exempt from qualification under the applicable securities laws of any relevant states or other jurisdictions.

Upon any partial exercise of the Warrants, there shall be countersigned and issued to the Holder hereof a new Warrant Certificate representing those Warrants which were not exercised. This Warrant Certificate may be exchanged at the office of the Warrant Agent by presenting this Warrant Certificate properly endorsed with a request to exchange this Warrant Certificate for other Warrant Certificates evidencing an equal number of Warrants. No fractional Warrant Shares will be issued upon the exercise of the Warrants. If any fraction of a Warrant Share would be issuable upon the exercise of Warrants, the Company shall round down the total number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the relevant Holder to the nearest whole number.

All Warrant Shares shall, upon such issue, be duly and validly issued and fully paid and non-assessable.

The holder in whose name the Warrant Certificate is registered may be deemed and treated by the Company and the Warrant Agent as the absolute owner of the Warrant Certificate for all purposes whatsoever and neither the Company nor the Warrant Agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Holders of Warrants do not have any rights as a stockholder with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants prior to the time such warrants are validly exercised, and the exercise price is paid.
