NEITHER THE WARRANTS GRANTED HEREIN NOR THE UNDERLYING SECURITIES HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR ANY STATE OR OTHER SECURITIES LAW. THE HOLDER HEREOF, BY ACQUIRING THIS INSTRUMENT, AGREES THAT THESE WARRANTS MAY BE RESOLD, PLEDGED, EXERCISED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED SOLELY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS HEREOF, THE UNIT SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT AND (A) ONLY (1) PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR (2) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, IN EACH CASE IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES AND (B) PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION OR EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION UNDER ANY OTHER APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS.
This Warrant is granted pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Unit Subscription Agreement. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms have the definitions ascribed thereto in the Unit Subscription Agreement.
This certifies that the Investor is the holder of warrants to purchase (the “Warrants”) [________] shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (“Common Stock”) at a purchase price equal to the Exercise Price (such shares of Common Stock, the “Applicable Shares”). The exercise price, which shall be deliverable upon the exercise of each Warrant, shall be $0.15 per share of Common Stock as such price may be amended from time to time as provided herein (the “Exercise Price”). The Applicable Shares shall be deliverable upon surrender of this instrument and payment of such Exercise Price to the Company, but subject to the conditions set forth herein. Payment of the Exercise Price shall be made in immediately available funds and shall be accompanied by the Form of Exercise attached hereto properly completed by the holder.
The Warrants evidenced hereby shall be exercisable at any time and from time to time for Applicable Securities upon the exercise thereof in accordance with the terms hereof; provided however, that the Warrants may not be exercised after (and shall expire upon the occurrence of) the earlier to occur of (i) the fifth (5th) anniversary of the date hereof, and (ii) the closing of a Significant Corporate Event.

The Applicable Securities issued upon the exercise of the Warrants shall be subject to, and have all the benefits of, the rights, preferences and privileges of such series of securities.
Exercise of Warrants
The holder of Warrants evidenced hereby may exercise them, in part or in whole, by surrendering this instrument, with the Form of Exercise attached hereto properly completed and executed, and paying the Exercise Price. In the event that upon any exercise of Warrants evidenced hereby the number of Warrants exercised shall be less than the total number of Warrants evidenced hereby, there shall be issued to the holder hereof a new instrument evidencing the number of Warrants not exercised. No adjustment to the Exercise Price will be made for any declared and unpaid dividends or distributions on any Applicable Securities issuable upon exercise of Warrants evidenced hereby.
The Company shall, to the extent necessary, issue fractional Applicable Securities upon exercise of Warrants or pay the cash equivalent thereof, at the Company’s option.
Taxes upon Exercise
The Company shall pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of the Applicable Securities upon exercise of Warrants. Nothing herein shall preclude any tax withholding required by law or regulations.
Company to Provide Applicable Securities
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Unit Subscription Agreement, the Company shall from time to time as may be necessary, reserve, out of its authorized but unissued Common Stock, a sufficient number of Applicable Securities to permit the exercise of the entire number of Warrants evidenced hereby.
The certificates for Applicable Securities issued upon exercise, if any, may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule, agreements to which the Company is subject or as the Company may deem necessary or desirable. By acceptance of a certificate representing any Applicable Securities issued upon exercise of Warrants, the holder hereof acknowledges any restrictions on transfer set forth on such certificate and agrees that such holder will transfer such Applicable Securities only as provided thereon.
All Applicable Securities delivered upon exercise of Warrants shall be newly issued, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from any lien or adverse claim. The Company will endeavor promptly to comply with all federal and state securities laws regulating the offer and delivery of Applicable Securities upon exercise of Warrants, if any.
(a) Adjustments for Subdivisions, Combinations or Consolidations.
(i) Subdivisions. In the event that the Company shall effect a subdivision of outstanding Applicable Securities, the number of Applicable Securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately increased, and the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall concurrently with such subdivision be proportionately decreased.
(ii) Combinations or Consolidations. In the event that the outstanding Applicable Securities shall be combined or consolidated, by reclassification or otherwise, into a lesser number of Applicable Securities, the number of Applicable Securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such combination or consolidation shall be proportionately decreased, and the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination or consolidation shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such combination or consolidation, be proportionately increased.
(b) Adjustment for Reclassification, Exchange or Substitution. If the Applicable Securities shall be changed into the same or a different number of securities in any class or classes of securities, whether by capital reorganization, reclassification or otherwise (other than a reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale of assets provided for below), then and in each such event the holder of each Warrant shall have the right thereafter to exercise such Warrant for the kind and amount of securities and other securities and property receivable upon such reorganization, reclassification, or other change, by holders of the number of Applicable Securities for which such Warrants might have been exercised immediately prior to such reorganization, reclassification or change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.
(c) Adjustment for Merger or Reorganization, etc. In case of any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into a corporation or another entity or the conversion of the Company into a corporation by any other means, each Warrant shall thereafter be exercisable for the kind and amount of equity interests or other securities or property to which a holder of the number of Applicable Securities of the Company deliverable upon exercise of such Warrant would have been entitled upon such consolidation, merger or sale; and, in such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company) shall be made in the application of the provisions in this Paragraph (c) set forth with respect to the rights and interest thereafter of the holders of the Warrants, to the end that the provisions set forth in this Section (including provisions with respect to changes in and other adjustments of the number of Warrants evidenced hereby or the Exercise Price therefor) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to any equity interests or other property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of the Warrants.
(d) Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment pursuant to paragraphs (a) - (d) hereof, the Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to each holder of a Warrant or Warrants a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Company shall, upon the written request at any time of any holder of a Warrant, furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a similar certificate setting forth (i) such adjustments and readjustments, (ii) the Exercise Price then in effect, and (iii) the number of Applicable Securities and the amount, if any, of other property which then would be received upon the exercise of such Warrant.
Notice of Certain Transactions
In the event that (a) the Company takes any action which would require an adjustment in the Exercise Price, (b) the Company agrees to undertake any transaction regarding an adjustment hereunder, or (c) there is a dissolution of liquidation of the Company, then in each case, the Company shall mail to the holder a notice stating the proposed record or effective date, as the case may be. The Company shall mail the notice at least five days before the earlier of the proposed record date or the proposed effective date.

This instrument and the Warrants may not be transferred without the prior written consent of the Company, which may be granted or withheld in the sole and absolute discretion of the Company.

Any permitted Transfer shall be effected upon surrender of this instrument to the Company for such purpose, together with a written assignment on the Form of Assignment attached hereto, or in other form satisfactory to the Company, duly executed by the holder hereof, together with funds to pay any transfer, documentary, stamp or other taxes or government charges payable in connection with such transfer and any other amounts required pursuant to this instrument. Upon the surrender of this instrument and payment as aforesaid, the Company will deliver a new instrument, in the name of the assignee and evidencing Warrants in a permissible denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment. If less than all of the Warrants evidenced by this instrument are being transferred, the Company will deliver a new instrument for the portion of the Warrants not being transferred.
