3.4 MGT Option.
(a) The MGT Option is exercisable in whole or in part at any time during the Exercise Period by notice in writing delivered to J&S in exchange for (i) a cash payment by MGT to J&S of $1,000,000 (the “Option Cash Payment”) and (ii) the grant by MGT to J&S of a four year warrant commencing on the date of grant thereof (the “MGT Option Warrant”) to purchase 250,000 shares of common stock of MGT (the “MGT Common Stock”) at a purchase price equal to the lower of six dollars ($6.00) or 110% of the closing price of the MGT Common Stock on the day prior to the exercise of the MGT Option.1 Upon the grant thereof, the MGT Option Warrant shall be exercisable and on such terms and conditions as set forth in the form attached as Exhibit F hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the exercise of the MGT Warrant and the MGT Option Warrant will result in the issuance of shares of MGT Common Stock to J&S representing more than the applicable percentage under the rules of the NYSE Amex, the issuance of shares of MGT Common Stock in excess of the applicable percentage shall be subject to the approval of the stockholders of MGT.2

Conversely, if the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date combine (by reverse stock split or otherwise) the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of the MGT Option shall be proportionately decreased. Any adjustment under this paragraph shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

2 The number of shares of MGT Common Stock outstanding as of May 9, 2012 was 2,105,187, and as such, MGT shall be required to obtain shareholder approval prior to J&S acquiring more than 421,016 shares (i.e. 19.999%) of MGT Common Stock pursuant to the MGT Warrant and the MGT Option Warrant.
6 |
(e) If at any time after the Closing Date and while the MGT Option remains outstanding and unexpired in whole or in part, the Option Shares are changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of stock, the MGT Option will thereafter represent the right to acquire such number and kind of securities into which the Option Shares are changed.

Upon exercise of the Repurchase Right, (i) J&S shall deliver to MGT the Repurchase Price, (ii) MGT shall deliver the certificate representing the MGT Company Shares to the Company for cancellation, together with any instruments of transfer associated with the transfer of the MGT Company Shares and (iii) the Company shall prepare and deliver to J&S a stock certificate representing the transfer of the MGT Company Shares from MGT to J&S. A “Qualified Action” means any of the following: (x) initiation of patent litigation in a U.S. federal court against a party alleged to have infringed the Patent; (y) a settlement agreement with a party alleged to have infringed the Patent; or (z) exercise by MGT, in whole or in part, of the MGT Option.
