With respect to any offer, sale or other disposition of this Note or securities into which this Note may be converted, the Investor will give written notice to the Company prior thereto, describing briefly the manner thereof, together with, to the extent requested by the Company, a written opinion of the Investor’s counsel, or other evidence if reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such offer, sale or other distribution may be effected without registration or qualification (under any federal or state law then in effect). Upon receiving such written notice and reasonably satisfactory opinion, if so requested, or other evidence, the Company, as promptly as practicable, shall notify the Investor that the Investor may sell or otherwise dispose of this Note or such securities, all in accordance with the terms of the notice delivered to the Company.

Subject to the foregoing, transfers of this Note shall be registered upon registration books maintained for such purpose by or on behalf of the Company. Prior to presentation of this Note for registration of transfer, the Company shall treat the registered holder hereof as the owner and holder of this Note for the purpose of receiving all payments of principal and interest hereon and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not this Note shall be overdue and the Company shall not be affected by notice to the contrary.

 

9.   Lock-Up Agreement. The Investor agrees, in connection with the Company’s initial public offering of the Company’s securities, upon request of the Company or the underwriters managing any underwritten offering of the Company’s securities, not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any of the Company’s securities (other than those included in the registration) without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) from the effective date of such registration as may be requested by the underwriters; provided however that such 180 day period may be extended to the extent necessary to permit any managing underwriter to comply with FINRA Rule 2241, if applicable, or any similar or successor rule or amendment thereto. The obligations of Investor under this section shall be conditioned upon similar agreements being in effect with each stockholder who is an officer, director or 5% stockholder of the Company. The Investor agrees to execute a market standoff agreement with said underwriters in customary form consistent with the provisions of this Section 9. The Investor acknowledges that the Company will be caused to be placed on any securities issued directly or indirectly on conversion of this Note the following legend:

 

THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY AND RESALE, INCLUDING A LOCK-UP PERIOD OF UP TO 180 DAYS (SUBJECT TO EXTENSION IN CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES) IN THE EVENT OF A PUBLIC OFFERING, AS SET FORTH IN AN AGREEMENT WITH THE COMPANY, COPIES OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE COMPANY.

 

10.  Governing Law. This Note and all actions arising out of or in connection with this Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflicts of law provisions of the State of New York, or of any other state.

WARRANT TO PURCHASE SHARES

 

This Warrant is issued to the individual or entity identified in the signature page hereto (the “Investor”), by PogoTec, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) on November __, 2017 (the “Date of Issuance”).

 

WHEREAS, the Company and Investor have entered into a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement dated as of November __, 2017 (the “Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which the Investor is purchasing a promissory note of even date herewith (the “Note”), and to induce the Investor to purchase the Note, the Company has agreed to issue this Warrant to Purchase Shares (this “Warrant”). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

 

1. Purchase of Shares. Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth and set forth in the Purchase Agreement and upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company (or at such other place as the Company shall notify the holder hereof in writing), to purchase from the Company up to the number of fully paid and nonassessable Shares (as defined below) equal to the Maximum Number of Shares (as defined below). Upon exercise hereof, the Investor shall execute and deliver such documentation as is reasonably requested by the Company setting forth certain representations and warranties and customary restrictions on transfer.

 

2. Definitions.

 

(a) Exercise Price. The exercise price for the Shares shall be $5.09 (such price, as adjusted from time to time pursuant to the terms hereof, is herein referred to as the “Exercise Price”).

 

(b) Exercise Period. This Warrant shall be exercisable, in whole or in part, during the term commencing on the Date of Issuance of the Warrant and terminating in accordance with Section 15 hereof.

 

(c)   Qualified Financing. The term “Qualified Financing” is defined in the Note.

 

 

(d) Sale Transaction. The term “Sale Transaction” means (a) a Change of Control or (b) any other transaction that is a “liquidation event” under the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation dated August 24, 2016, as amended from time to time.

 

(e) The Shares. “Shares” shall mean the Common Stock of the Company.

 

(f)   Warrant Coverage Amount. The term “Warrant Coverage Amount” means that amount which equals twenty percent (20%) of the original principal amount of the Note. In the event that the Company does not pay outstanding principal and accrued interest within ten (10) days after demand made by the Investor made after the first anniversary of the Initial Closing, the Warrant Coverage Amount shall mean the amount which equals twenty-five percent (25)% of the original principal amount of the Note.

 

(g) Maximum Number of Shares. The “Maximum Number of Shares” equals a quotient, the numerator of which is the Warrant Coverage Amount, and the denominator of which is $1.10, such calculation to be rounded down to the nearest whole number.

 

(h) Change of Control. The term “Change of Control” shall mean (i) any consolidation or merger involving the Company pursuant to which the Company’s stockholders prior to such transaction own less than fifty percent (50%) of the voting securities of the surviving entity, (ii) the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or (iii) any other event that constitutes a “Liquidation Event” as set forth in the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation dated August 24, 2016, as amended from time to time (the “Certificate of Incorporation”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change of Control shall not be occasioned by the sale by the Company of its equity securities for the primary purpose of raising operating capital.

 

3. Method of Exercise. While this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable in accordance with Section 2 above, the holder may exercise, in whole or in part, the purchase rights evidenced hereby. Such exercise shall be effected by:

 

(a) the surrender of the Warrant, together with a notice of exercise, a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A, to the Secretary of the Company at its principal offices;

 

(b) the payment to the Company of an amount equal to the aggregate Exercise Price for the number of Shares being purchased; and

 

(c)   execution of any standard shareholder agreement reasonably acceptable to the Investor and generally applicable to all similarly situated shareholders, as applicable.

 

4. Net Exercise. In lieu of cash exercising this Warrant, the holder of this Warrant may elect to receive Shares equal to the value of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being canceled) by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with notice of such election, in which event the Company shall issue to the holder hereof a number of Shares computed using the following formula:

 

	Y (A - B)
X =	A

 

Where

 

X -- The number of Shares to be issued to the holder of this Warrant.

Y -- The number of Shares purchasable under this Warrant.

A -- The fair market value of one Share.

B -- The Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculations).

 

 

For purposes of this Section 4, the fair market value of a Share shall mean the average of the closing bid and asked prices of Shares quoted in the over-the-counter market in which the Shares are traded or the closing price quoted on any exchange on which the Shares are listed, whichever is applicable, as published in the Western Edition of The Wall Street Journal for the ten (10) trading days prior to the date of determination of fair market value (or such shorter period of time during which such stock was traded over-the-counter or on such exchange). If the Shares are not traded on the over-the-counter market or on an exchange, the fair market value shall be the price per Share that the Company could obtain from a willing buyer for Shares sold by the Company from authorized but unissued Shares, as such prices shall be determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors.

 

5. Certificates for Shares. Upon the exercise of the purchase rights evidenced by this Warrant, one or more certificates for the number of Shares so purchased shall be issued as soon as practicable thereafter, and in any event within thirty (30) days of the delivery of the exercise notice.

 

6. Issuance of Shares. The Company covenants that the Shares, and the shares of the Company’s capital stock issuable upon conversion of the Shares, when issued pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant, and upon conversion of the Shares, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, free of preemptive rights and other rights and free from all taxes, liens, charges, security interests and adverse claims with respect to the issue thereof.

 

7. Reservation of Stock. The Company agrees during the term the rights under this Warrant are exercisable to reserve and keep available from its authorized and unissued shares of the capital stock of the Company for the purpose of effecting the exercise of this Warrant such number of Shares as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the exercise of the rights under this Warrant and such number of shares of capital stock issuable upon conversion of the Shares; and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of capital stock shall not be sufficient for purposes of the exercise of this Warrant and conversion of the Shares in accordance with its terms, without limitation of such other remedies as may be available to the holder, the Company will use its best efforts to take such corporate action as may be necessary to increase its authorized and unissued capital stock to a number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes.

 

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

 

(a) Merger, Reorganization or Sale of Assets. If at any time there shall be any reorganization, recapitalization, merger or consolidation involving the Company in which shares of the Company’s stock are converted into or exchanged for securities, cash or other property, or the Company shall sell all or substantially all of its assets to any other person or entity (other than as would cause the expiration of this Warrant under Section 15) (a “Reorganization”), then, as a part of such Reorganization, lawful provision shall be made so that the holder shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property of the successor corporation resulting from such Reorganization, equivalent in value to that which a holder of the Shares deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant would have been entitled in such Reorganization if the right to purchase the Shares hereunder had been exercised immediately prior to such Reorganization. In any such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors of the successor corporation) shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Warrant with respect to the rights and interests of the holder after such Reorganization to the end that the provisions of this Warrant shall be applicable after the event, as near as reasonably may be, in relation to any shares or other securities deliverable after that event upon the exercise of this Warrant.

 

 

(b) Subdivisions, Combinations and Other Issuances. If the Company shall at any time prior to the expiration of this Warrant subdivide the Shares, by split-up or otherwise, or combine its Shares, or issue additional shares of its Shares as a dividend, the number of Shares issuable on the exercise of this Warrant shall forthwith be proportionately increased in the case of a subdivision or stock dividend, or proportionately decreased in the case of a combination. Appropriate adjustments shall also be made to the purchase price payable per share, but the aggregate purchase price payable for the total number of Shares purchasable under this Warrant (as adjusted) shall remain the same. Any adjustment under this Section 8(b) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective, or as of the record date of such dividend, or in the event that no record date is fixed, upon the making of such dividend.

 

(c) Reclassification, Reorganization and Consolidation. In case of any reclassification, capital reorganization, or change in the capital stock of the Company whether by exchange, substitution or otherwise (other than as a result of a subdivision, combination, or stock dividend provided for in Section 8(b) above), then the Company shall make appropriate provision so that the holder of this Warrant shall have the right at any time prior to the expiration of this Warrant to purchase, at a total price equal to that payable upon the exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property receivable in connection with such reclassification, reorganization, or change by a holder of the same number of Shares as were purchasable by the holder of this Warrant immediately prior to such reclassification, reorganization, or change. In any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interest of the holder of this Warrant so that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable with respect to any shares of stock or other securities and property deliverable upon exercise hereof, and appropriate adjustments shall be made to the purchase price per share payable hereunder, provided the aggregate purchase price shall remain the same.

 

(d) Notice of Adjustment. The Company shall promptly provide written notification to the holder of this Warrant of such event and of the number of Shares or other securities or property purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant.

 

9. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but in lieu of such fractional shares the Company shall make a cash payment therefor on the basis of the Exercise Price then in effect.

 

10. Representations of the Company. The Warrant has been duly authorized and executed by the Company and is a valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to laws of general application relating to bankruptcy, insolvency and the relief of debtors and the rules of law or principles at equity governing specific performance, injunctive relief and other equitable remedies. The Shares underlying the Warrant have been duly authorized and reserved for issuance by the Company and, when issued in accordance with the terms hereof, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from preemptive rights.

 

11. Representations and Warranties by the Holder. The holder of this Warrant represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

 

(a) Investment Intent. This Warrant and the Shares issuable upon exercise thereof are being acquired for its own account, for investment and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution or public offering thereof within the meaning of the Act. Upon exercise of this Warrant, the holder of this Warrant shall, if so requested by the Company, confirm in writing, in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that the securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are being acquired for investment and not with a view toward distribution or resale.

 

 

(b) No Registration. The holder of this Warrant understands that the Warrant, the Shares and the underlying securities have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) by reason of their issuance in a transaction exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof, and that they must be held by the holder of this Warrant indefinitely, and that the holder of this Warrant must therefore bear the economic risk of such investment indefinitely, unless a subsequent disposition thereof is registered under the Securities Act or is exempted from such registration. The holder of this Warrant further understands that the Shares and the underlying securities have not been and will not be qualified under the California Securities Law of 1968 (the “California Law”) by reason of their issuance in a transaction exempt from the qualification requirements of the California Law pursuant to Section 25102(f) thereof, which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the holder’s investment intent expressed above.

 

(c)   Investment Experience. The holder of this Warrant has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the issuance of this Warrant and the Shares purchasable pursuant to the terms of this Warrant and of protecting its interests in connection therewith.

 

(d) Speculative Nature of Investment. The holder of this Warrant understands and acknowledges that its investment in the Company is highly speculative and involves substantial risks. The holder of this Warrant is able to bear the economic risk of the purchase of the Shares pursuant to the terms of this Warrant.

 

(e) Access to Data. The holder of this Warrant has had an opportunity to ask questions of officers of the Company, which questions were answered to its satisfaction. The holder of this Warrant believes that it has received all the information that it considers necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to acquire the Shares. The holder of this Warrant understands that any such discussions, as well as any information issued by the Company, were intended to describe certain aspects of the Company’s business and prospects, but were not necessarily a thorough or exhaustive description. The holder of this Warrant acknowledges that any business plans prepared by the Company have been, and continue to be, subject to change and that any projections included in such business plans or otherwise are necessarily speculative in nature, and it can be expected that some or all of the assumptions underlying the projections will not materialize or will vary significantly from actual results.

 

(f)   Accredited Investor. The holder of this Warrant is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act and agrees to submit to the Company such further assurances of such status as may be reasonably required by the Company.

 

(g) Residency. The residency of the holder of this Warrant (or, in the case of a partnership, limited liability company or corporation, such entity’s principal place of business) is correctly set forth on the signature page to the Purchase Agreement.

 

(h) Restrictions on Resales. The holder of this Warrant acknowledges that the Shares must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. The holder of this Warrant is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Act, which permit resale of shares purchased in a private placement subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, which may include, among other things, the availability of certain current public information about the Company; the resale occurring not less than a specified period after a party has purchased and paid for the security to be sold; the number of shares being sold during any three-month period not exceeding specified limitations; the sale being effected through a “broker’s transaction,” a transaction directly with a “market maker” or a “riskless principal transaction” (as those terms are defined in the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder); and the filing of a Form 144 notice, if applicable. The holder of this Warrant acknowledges and understands that the Company may not be satisfying the current public information requirement of Rule 144 at the time the holder of this Warrant wishes to sell the Shares and that, in such event, the holder of this Warrant may be precluded from selling the Shares under Rule 144 even if the other applicable requirements of Rule 144 have been satisfied. The holder of this Warrant acknowledges that, in the event the applicable requirements of Rule 144 are not met, registration under the Securities Act or an exemption from registration will be required for any disposition of the Shares. The holder of this Warrant understands that, although Rule 144 is not exclusive, the Securities and Exchange Commission has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell restricted securities received in a private offering other than in a registered offering or pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales and that such persons and the brokers who participate in the transactions do so at their own risk.

 

 

(i)   Brokers and Finders. The holder of this Warrant has not engaged any brokers, finders or agents in connection with this Warrant or the Shares, and the Company has not incurred nor will incur, directly or indirectly, as a result of any action taken by the holder of this Warrant, any liability for brokerage or finders’ fees or agents’ commissions or any similar charges in connection with this Warrant or the Shares.

 

(j)   Legal Counsel. The holder of this Warrant has had the opportunity to review this Warrant, the exhibits and schedules attached hereto and the transactions contemplated by this Warrant with its own legal counsel. The holder of this Warrant is not relying on any statements or representations of the Company or its agents for legal advice with respect to this investment or the transactions contemplated by this Warrant.

 

(k) Tax Advisors. The holder of this Warrant has reviewed with its own tax advisors the U.S. federal, state and local and non-U.S. tax consequences of this investment and the transactions contemplated by this Warrant. With respect to such matters, the holder of this Warrant relies solely on any such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents, written or oral. The holder of this Warrant understands that it (and not the Company) shall be responsible for its own tax liability that may arise as a result of this investment and the transactions contemplated by this Warrant.

 

12.   Restrictive Legend.

 

The Shares and underlying securities (unless registered under the Securities Act) shall be stamped or imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:

 

THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF, AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”) OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE. SUCH SHARES MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. COPIES OF THE AGREEMENT COVERING THE PURCHASE OF THESE SHARES AND RESTRICTING THEIR TRANSFER MAY BE OBTAINED AT NO COST BY WRITTEN REQUEST MADE BY THE HOLDER OF RECORD OF THIS CERTIFICATE TO THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY AT THE PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE OFFICES OF THE COMPANY.

 

 

The shares represented by this certificate are subject to restrictions on transferability and resale, including a lock-up period of up to 180 days (SUBJECT TO EXTENSION IN CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES) in the event of a public offering, as set forth in an AGREEMENT WITH THE COMPANY, copies of which MAY BE OBTAINED AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE COMPANY.

 

13.   Warrants Transferable. Subject to compliance with the terms and conditions of this Section 13, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, without charge to the holder hereof (except for transfer taxes), upon surrender of this Warrant properly endorsed or accompanied by written instructions of transfer. With respect to any offer, sale or other disposition of this Warrant or any Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant prior to registration of such Warrant or Shares, the holder hereof agrees to give written notice to the Company prior thereto, describing briefly the manner thereof, together with a written opinion of such holder’s counsel, or other evidence, if requested by the Company, to the effect that such offer, sale or other disposition may be effected without registration or qualification (under the Securities Act as then in effect or any federal or state securities law then in effect) of this Warrant or the Shares and indicating whether or not under the Securities Act certificates for this Warrant or the Shares to be sold or otherwise disposed of require any restrictive legend as to applicable restrictions on transferability in order to ensure compliance with such laws. Upon receiving such written notice and reasonably satisfactory opinion or other evidence, if so requested, the Company, as promptly as practicable, shall notify such holder that such holder may sell or otherwise dispose of this Warrant or such Shares, all in accordance with the terms of the notice delivered to the Company. If a determination has been made pursuant to this Section 13 that the opinion of counsel for the holder or other evidence is not reasonably satisfactory to the Company, the Company shall so notify the holder promptly with details thereof after such determination has been made. Each certificate representing this Warrant or the Shares transferred in accordance with this Section 13 shall bear a legend as to the applicable restrictions on transferability in order to ensure compliance with such laws, unless in the aforesaid opinion of counsel for the holder, such legend is not required in order to ensure compliance with such laws. The Company may issue stop transfer instructions to its transfer agent in connection with such restrictions. Moreover, new holders are subject to any obligation of original holder.

 

14.   Rights of Stockholders. No holder of this Warrant shall be entitled, as a Warrant holder, to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of the Shares or any other securities of the Company which may at any time be issuable on the exercise hereof for any purpose, nor shall anything contained herein be construed to confer upon the holder of this Warrant, as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether upon any recapitalization, issuance of stock, reclassification of stock, change of par value, consolidation, merger, conveyance, or otherwise) or to receive notice of meetings, or to receive dividends or subscription rights or otherwise until the Warrant shall have been exercised and the Shares purchasable upon the exercise hereof shall have become deliverable, as provided herein.

 

 

15.   Expiration of Warrant; Notice of Certain Events Terminating This Warrant.

 

(a) This Warrant shall expire and shall no longer be exercisable upon the earlier to occur of:

 

(i)   5:00 p.m., Delaware local time, on the seventh (7^th) anniversary of the Date of Issuance of this Warrant; or

(b) The Company shall provide at least twenty (20) days prior written notice of any event set forth in Section 15(a)(ii); provided, however, that if the holder of this Warrant has not exercised this Warrant prior to a Sale Transaction in which the sole consideration to be received by the holder of this Warrant for the Shares is immediately available funds or freely tradable securities (except as may be retained in escrow or as a hold back on the same terms and conditions as any other holder of Shares).

 

16.   Notices. All notices and other communications given or made hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively given: (a) upon personal delivery to the party to be notified; (b) when sent by confirmed electronic mail or facsimile if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, and if not so confirmed, then on the next business day, with a copy to be sent by United States first class mail, postage prepaid; (c) five (5) days after being sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt required, postage prepaid; or (d) one (1) day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier, specifying next day delivery, with written verification of receipt.

17.  Market Standoff. The holder of this Warrant or any shares issued on exercise of this Warrant agrees, in connection with the Company’s initial public offering of the Company’s securities, upon request of the Company or the underwriters managing any underwritten offering of the Company’s securities, not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any of the Company’s securities (other than those included in the registration) without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) from the effective date of such registration as may be requested by the underwriters; provided however that such 180 day period may be extended to the extent necessary to permit any managing underwriter to comply with FINRA Rule 2241, if applicable, or any similar or successor rule or amendment thereto. The obligations of Investor under this section shall be conditioned upon similar agreements being in effect with each stockholder who is an officer, director or 5% stockholder of the Company. Such holder agrees to execute a market standoff agreement with said underwriters in customary form consistent with the provisions of this Section 17.

 

18.   Governing Law. This Warrant and all actions arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflicts of law provisions of the State of New York or of any other state.

 

19.   Rights and Obligations Survive Exercise of Warrant. Unless otherwise provided herein, the rights and obligations of the Company, of the holder of this Warrant and of the holder of the Shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant, shall survive the exercise of this Warrant.

 

20.   Amendments. Except as expressly provided herein, neither this Warrant nor any term hereof may be amended, waived, discharged or terminated other than by a written instrument referencing this Warrant and signed by the Company and the Investor; provided however, that if the Notes are no longer outstanding, this Warrant may be amended, and the terms thereof may be waived, only with written consent of all of the Investors.

 

 

21.   Waivers. No waiver of any single breach or default shall be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring.

23.   Severability. If any provision of this Warrant becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable or void, portions of such provision, or such provision in its entirety, to the extent necessary, shall be severed from this Warrant, and such illegal, unenforceable or void provision shall be replaced with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the same economic, business and other purposes of the illegal, unenforceable or void provision. The balance of this Warrant shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.

 

24.   Entire Agreement. This Warrant (including the exhibits attached hereto) together with the Warrant Acquisition Agreement, as of even date herewith, between the Investor and the Company, all documents referred to herein and therein and all documents required to be executed hereto and thereto constitute and contain the entire agreement among the Company and the holder of this Warrant and supersede any and all prior agreements, negotiations, correspondence, understandings and communications among the parties, whether written or oral, respecting the subject matter hereof.
