The Cash Redemption Value of the Warrants shall be due and payable within ten (10) Business Days after the date of the applicable Change of Control Event. If a Holder of Warrants does not elect to receive the Cash Redemption Value for such Holder’s Warrants as provided by this Section 6.1, such Warrants will remain outstanding as adjusted pursuant to the provisions of Article 5 hereof.
