THIS WARRANT CERTIFIES THAT, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is
hereby acknowledged, COMERICA BANK or its assignee (“Holder”) is entitled to purchase the number of
fully paid and nonassessable shares of the class of securities (the “Shares”) of the corporation
(the “Company”) at the initial exercise price per Share (the “Warrant Price”) all as set forth
above and as adjusted pursuant to Article 2 of this warrant, subject to the provisions and upon the
terms and conditions set forth in this warrant. The number of Shares that may be purchased under
this Warrant is equal to (i) the dollar amount that is 5% of the aggregate Term Advances made by
Holder to the Company under the Loan and Security Agreement dated as of the Issue Date divided by
(ii) $0.75.
ARTICLE 1. EXERCISE.
1.1 Method of Exercise. Holder may exercise this warrant by delivering this warrant
and a duly executed Notice of Exercise in substantially the form attached as Appendix 1 to the
principal office of the Company. Unless Holder is exercising the conversion right set forth in
Section 1.2, Holder shall also deliver to the Company a check for the aggregate Warrant Price for
the shares being purchased.
1.2 Conversion Right. In lieu of exercising this warrant as specified in Section 1.1,
Holder may from time to time convert this warrant, in whole or in part, to a number of Shares
determined by dividing (a) the aggregate fair market value of the Shares or other securities
otherwise issuable upon exercise of this warrant minus the aggregate Warrant Price of such Shares
by (b) the fair market value of one Share. The fair market value of the Shares shall be determined
pursuant to Section 1.3.
1.3 Fair Market Value. If the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”) is traded
on a nationally recognized securities exchange or over the counter market, the fair market value of
a Share shall be the product of (x) the closing price of a share of the Company’s Common Stock
reported for the business day immediately before Holder delivers its Notice of Exercise to the
Company and (y) the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock into which each Share is
convertible at the time of exercise. If the Company’s Common Stock is not listed on a nationally
recognized trading system as of the date of exercise, the fair market value per Share shall be
deemed to be the product of (x) the amount most recently determined in good faith by the Board of
Directors to represent the fair market value per share of the Company’s Common Stock and (y) the
number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock into which each Share is convertible at the time of
exercise.
1.4 Delivery of Certificate and New Warrant. Promptly after Holder exercises or
converts this warrant, the Company shall deliver to Holder certificates for the Shares acquired
and, if this warrant has not been fully exercised or converted and has not expired, a new warrant
representing the Shares not so acquired.
1.5 Replacement of Warrants. On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the
Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this warrant and, in the case of loss,
theft or destruction, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and
amount to the Company or, in the case of mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this warrant,
the Company at its expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu of this warrant, a new warrant of
like tenor.
1.6 Assumption Upon Acquisition of the Company. If upon the closing of any
Acquisition, the successor entity assumes the obligations of this warrant, then this warrant shall
be exercisable for the same securities, cash and property as would be payable for the Shares
issuable upon exercise of the unexercised portion of this warrant as if such Sharps were
outstanding on the record date for the Acquisition. The Warrant Price shall be adjusted
accordingly. If upon the closing of any Acquisition the successor entity does not assume the
obligations of this warrant and Holder has not otherwise exercise this warrant in full, then this
warrant shall be deemed to have been automatically converted pursuant to Section 1.2 and thereafter
Holder shall participate in the Acquisition on the same terms as other holders of the same class of
securities of the Company. “Acquisition” means any acquisition, reorganization, consolidation, or
merger of the Company where the holders of the Company’s securities before the transaction
beneficially own less than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the surviving entity after
the transaction.
ARTICLE 2. ADJUSTMENTS TO THE SHARES.
2.1 Adjustment for Conversion of Shares. If all of the outstanding shares of the
Shares are converted into Common Stock of the Company in accordance with the terms of the
Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, then, effective upon such conversion, (i) this warrant
shall be exercisable for such number of shares of Common Stock as is equal to the number of shares
of Common Stock that each share of the same class of stock as the Shares was converted into,
multiplied by the number of Shares subject to this warrant immediately prior to such conversion,
(ii) the Warrant Price shall be the price in effect immediately prior to such conversion divided by
the number of shares of Common Stock into which each share of the same class of stock as the Shares
was converted, and (iii) all references in this warrant to “Shares” shall thereafter be deemed to
refer to “Common Stock.”
2.2 Stock Dividends, Splits, Etc. If the Company declares or pays a dividend on its
common stock payable in common stock, or other securities, or subdivides the outstanding common
stock into a greater amount of common stock, then upon exercise of this warrant, for each Shares
acquired, Holder shall receive, without cost to Holder, the total number and kind of securities to
which Holder would have been entitled had Holder owned the Shares of record as of the date the
dividend or subdivision occurred.
2.3 Reclassification, Exchange or Substitution. Upon any reclassification, exchange,
substitution, or other event that results in a change of the number auditor class of the securities
issuable upon exercise or conversion of this warrant, Milder shall be entitled to receive, upon
exercise or conversion of this warrant, the number and kind of securities and property that Holder
would have received for the Shares if this warrant bad been exercised immediately before such
reclassification, exchange, substitution, or other event. Such an event shall include any
automatic conversion of the outstanding securities of the Company of the same class or series as
the Shares into common stock pursuant to the terms of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation
upon the closing of a registered public offering of the Company’s common stock. The Company or its
successor shall promptly issue to
2
Holder a new warrant for such new securities or other property. The new warrant shall provide
for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments
provided for in this Article 2 including, without limitation, adjustments to the Warrant Price and
to the number of securities or property issuable upon exercise of the new warrant. The provisions
of this Section 2.2 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, exchanges,
substitutions, or other events.
2.4 Adjustments for Combinations, Etc. If the outstanding Shares are combined or
consolidated, by reclassification or otherwise, into a lesser number of shares, the Warrant Price
shall be proportionately increased. If the outstanding shares of the Shares are combined or
consolidated, by reclassification or otherwise, into a greater number of shares, the Warrant Price
shall be proportionately decreased.
2.5 Antidilution. Additional antidilution rights applicable to the Shares purchasable
hereunder are as set forth in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation as in effect from time to
time and shall be applicable with respect to the Shares issuable hereunder.
2.6 No Impairment. The Company shall not, by amendment of its Certificate of
Incorporation or through a reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution,
issue, or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance
or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed under this warrant by the Company,
but shall at all times in good faith assist in carrying out all the provisions of this Article 2
and in taking all such action as may be necessary or appropriate to protect Holder’s rights under
this Article against impairment.
2.7 Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon each adjustment of the Warrant Price, the
Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment, and furnish Holder with a
certificate of its principal financial officer setting forth such adjustment and the facts upon
which such adjustment is based. The Company shall, upon written request, furnish Holder a
certificate setting forth the Warrant Price in effect upon the date thereof and the series of
adjustments leading to such Warrant Price.
2.7 Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares shall be issuable upon exercise or
conversion of the Warrant and the Number of Shares to be issued shall be rounded down to the
nearest whole Share. If a fractional share interest arises upon any exercise or conversion of the
Warrant, the Company shall eliminate such fractional share interest by paying Holder amount
computed by multiplying the fractional interest by the fair market value of a full Share.
