Consolidation, Merger or Sale of Assets Nothing in this Agreement shall preclude the Company from consolidating or merging into or with, or transferring all or substantially all of its assets to, another corporation which assumes this Agreement, and all obligations of the Company hereunder, in writing. Upon such consolidation, merger, or transfer of assets and assumption, the term "the Company" as used herein, shall mean such other corporation and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect, subject to the provisions of Paragraph 6 hereof.
Reorganization, Reclassification, Merger, Consolidation or Disposition of Assets In case the Company shall reorganize its capital, reclassify its capital stock, consolidate or merge with or into another corporation (where the Company is not the surviving corporation or where there is a change in or distribution with respect to the Common Stock of the Company), or sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all its property, assets or business to another corporation and, pursuant to the terms of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation, or any cash, shares of stock or other securities or property of any nature whatsoever (including warrants or other subscription or purchase rights) in addition to or in lieu of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation ("Other Property"), are to be received by or distributed to the holders of Common Stock of the Company, then Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant, the number of shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and Other Property receivable upon or as a result of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such event. In case of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, the successor or acquiring corporation (if other than the Company) shall expressly assume the due and punctual observance and performance of each and every covenant and condition of this Warrant to be performed and observed by the Company and all the obligations and liabilities hereunder, subject to such modifications as may be deemed appropriate (as determined in good faith by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company) in order to provide for adjustments of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable which shall be as nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 11. For purposes of this Section 11, "common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation" shall include stock of such corporation of any class which is not preferred as to dividends or assets over any other class of stock of such corporation and which is not subject to redemption and shall also include any evidences of indebtedness, shares of stock or other securities which are convertible into or exchangeable for any such stock, either immediately or upon the arrival of a specified date or the happening of a specified event and any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any such stock. The foregoing provisions of this Section 11 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, mergers, consolidations or disposition of assets.
Consolidation, Merger or Sale In case of any consolidation of the Company with, or merger of the Company into any other corporation, or in case of any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company other than in connection with a plan of complete liquidation of the Company, then as a condition of such consolidation, merger or sale or conveyance, adequate provision will be made whereby the holder of this Warrant will have the right to acquire and receive upon exercise of this Warrant in lieu of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore acquirable upon the exercise of this Warrant, such shares of stock, securities or assets as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for the number of shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant had such consolidation, merger or sale or conveyance not taken place. In any such case, the Company will make appropriate provision to insure that the provisions of this Paragraph 4 hereof will thereafter be applicable as nearly as may be in relation to any shares of stock or securities thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant. The Company will not effect any consolidation, merger or sale or conveyance unless prior to the consummation thereof, the successor corporation (if other than the Company) assumes by written instrument the obligations under this Paragraph 4 and the obligations to deliver to the holder of this Warrant such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the holder may be entitled to acquire.
Consolidation, Merger, Sale of Assets (a) Neither the Borrower nor any of its Material Subsidiaries (in one transaction or series of transactions) will wind up, liquidate or dissolve its affairs, or enter into any transaction of merger or consolidation, except any merger, consolidation, dissolution or liquidation (i) in which the Borrower is the surviving entity or if the Borrower is not a party to such transaction then a Subsidiary is the surviving entity or the successor to the Borrower has unconditionally assumed in writing all of the payment and performance obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Fundamental Documents, (ii) in which the surviving entity becomes a Subsidiary of the Borrower immediately upon the effectiveness of such merger, consolidation, dissolution or liquidation, or (iii) involving a Subsidiary in connection with a transaction permitted by Section 6.4(b); provided, however, that immediately prior to and on a Pro Forma Basis after giving effect to any such transaction described in any of the preceding clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
(b) The Borrower and its Subsidiaries (either individually or collectively and whether in one transaction or series of related transactions) will not sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.
Effect of Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale If any of the following events occur, namely (i) any reclassification or change of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (other than (x) a subdivision or combination to which Section 14.05(c) applies) as a result of which holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash) with respect to or in exchange for such Common Stock, (ii) any consolidation, merger or combination of the Company with another Person as a result of which holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash) with respect to or in exchange for such Common Stock, or (iii) any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company to any other Person as a result of which holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash) with respect to or in exchange for such Common Stock, then the Company or the successor or purchasing Person, as the case may be, shall execute with the Trustee a supplemental indenture (in form satisfactory to the Trustee) providing that each Note shall be convertible into the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance by a holder of a number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such Notes (assuming, for such purposes, a sufficient number of authorized shares of Common Stock are available to convert all such Notes) immediately prior to such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance assuming such holder of Common Stock did not exercise such holder’s rights of election, if any, as to the kind or amount of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance (provided that, if the kind or amount of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance is not the same for each share of Common Stock in respect of which such rights of election shall not have been exercised (“Non-electing share”), then for the purposes of this Section the kind and amount of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance for each Non-electing share shall be deemed to be the kind and amount so receivable per share by a plurality of the Non-electing shares). Such supplemental indenture shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Article. The Company shall cause notice of the execution of such supplemental indenture to be mailed to each holder of Notes, at its address appearing on the Security Register provided for in Section 4.02 of this Indenture, within twenty (20) days after execution thereof. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of such supplemental indenture. The above provisions of this Section shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, changes, consolidations, mergers, combinations, sales and conveyances. If this Section applies to any event or occurrence, Section 14.05 shall not apply.

Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, this Section 4(a)(i) shall only apply if the surviving entity pursuant to any such Triggering Event is a public company that is registered pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and its common stock is listed or quoted on a national exchange or the OTC Bulletin Board. In the event that the surviving entity pursuant to any such Triggering Event is not a public company that is registered pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or its common stock is not listed or quoted on a national exchange or the OTC Bulletin Board, then the Holder shall have the right to demand that the Issuer pay to the Holder an amount equal to the value of this Warrant according to the Black-Scholes formula.

The foregoing provisions of this Section 11.1 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, consolidations, mergers, sales and transfers and to the stock or securities of any other corporation that are at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant. If the per-share consideration payable to the Holder hereof for shares in connection with any such transaction is in a form other than cash or marketable securities, then the value of such consideration shall be determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors. In all events, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors) shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Warrant with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder after the transaction, to the end that the provisions of this Warrant shall be applicable after that event, as near as reasonably may be, in relation to any shares or other property deliverable after that event upon exercise of this Warrant. In addition, if at any time while this Warrant, or any portion hereof, is outstanding and unexpired, (A) there shall be any transaction (other than the occurrence of conversion of the Bridge Loan as of the Warrant Exercisability Date) as described in clauses (ii) or (iii) above that constitutes a Sale of the Company and also constitutes either (x) a Liquidation Event, (y) an Acquisition or (z) an Asset Transfer (as each such term is defined in the Certificate of Designation for the Series A-1 Preferred Stock) for the Series A-1 Preferred Stock and the Series A-1 Preferred Stock is converted or redeemed for the Liquidation Amount (as defined in the Certificate of Designation for the Series A-1 Preferred Stock), and (B) this Warrant has not been exercised prior to the consummation thereof, this Warrant shall be deemed to be automatically exercised in whole through Net Issue Exercise as described in Section 3(c) hereof. The Company agrees that such shares to be issued to the Holder upon Net Issue Exercise as a result of a transaction described in clauses (ii) or (iii) above shall be deemed to be issued to the Holder as the record owner of such shares as of the close of business on the date of such transaction. A “Sale of the Company” shall mean the sale of the Company to an independent third party or group of independent third parties pursuant to which such party or parties acquire (a) Capital Stock (as defined in the Preferred Stock Right of First Refusal and Co-Sale Agreement) of the Company possessing the voting power under normal circumstances to elect a majority of the Company’s Board of Directors (whether by merger, consolidation or sale or transfer of the Capital Stock) or (b) all or substantially all of the Company’s assets determined on a consolidated basis. For purposes of this definition, “independent third party” means any Person who, immediately prior to such contemplated transaction, (w) does not own or have any voting or economic rights with respect to more than five percent (5%) of the Capital Stock on a fully-diluted and as converted to Common Stock basis, (x) is not an Affiliate of any Person who owns or has any voting or economic right with respect to more than five percent (5%) of the Capital Stock on a fully-diluted and as converted to Common Stock basis, (y) is not Parent, and (z) is not an Affiliate of Parent.
