2.3 RESTRICTIONS ON EXERCISE. This Warrant may not be exercised if the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon such exercise would (i) constitute a violation of any applicable federal or state securities laws or other laws or regulations or (ii) in the reasonable determination of the Company, violate or otherwise breach any provision (including covenants) of any loan agreement, credit facility or other financing agreement or arrangement to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or to which any of their material assets are subject.

The Company will keep a copy of this Warrant on file with the Transfer Agent.
SECTION 6. ADJUSTMENT OF NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES AND EXERCISE PRICE. The number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price per Warrant Share are subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of the events set forth in Section 6.1 or 6.2 below.
6.1 Adjustment to Number of Warrant Shares and Exercise Price Upon Dividend, Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company shall, at any time or from time to time after the Warrant Issue Date but prior to the Expiration Date, (a) pay a dividend or make any other distribution upon the Common Stock or any other capital stock of the Company payable in shares of Common Stock, or (b) subdivide (by any stock split, recapitalization or otherwise) its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to any such dividend, distribution or subdivision shall be proportionately increased and the Exercise Price shall be proportionally decreased. If the Company at any time prior to the Expiration Date combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately decreased and the Exercise Price shall be proportionally increased. Any adjustment under this Section 6.1 shall become effective at the close of business on the date the dividend, subdivision or combination becomes effective.
3 |
6.2 Adjustment for Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger, etc. In the event of, prior to the Expiration Date, any (a) capital reorganization of the Company, (b) reclassification of the stock of the Company (other than a change in par value or from par value to no par value or from no par value to par value or as a result of a stock dividend or subdivision, split-up or combination of shares), (c) consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another Person, (d) sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to another Person (other than a sale/leaseback, mortgage or other financing transaction) or (e) other similar transaction (other than any such transaction covered by Section 6.1), in each case which entitles the holders of Common Stock to receive (either directly or upon subsequent liquidation) stock, securities or assets (other than cash) with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock, this Warrant shall, immediately after such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or similar transaction, remain outstanding and shall thereafter, in lieu of or in addition to (as the case may be) the number of Warrant Shares then exercisable under this Warrant, be exercisable for the kind and number of shares of stock or other securities or assets (other than cash) of the Company or of the successor Person resulting from such transaction to which the Holder would have been entitled upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or similar transaction if the Holder had exercised this Warrant in full immediately prior to the time of such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or similar transaction and acquired the applicable number of Warrant Shares then issuable hereunder as a result of such exercise (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the exercisability of this Warrant); and, in such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made with respect to the Holder’s rights under this Warrant to ensure that the provisions of this Section 6 hereof shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as possible, to this Warrant in relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets (other than cash) thereafter acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant. The provisions of this Section 6.2 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, sales or similar transactions that occur prior to the Expiration Date. The Company shall not affect any such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or similar transaction unless, the shareholders of the Company are entitled to receive only cash as a result thereof or prior to the consummation thereof, the successor Person (if other than the Company) resulting from such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or similar transaction, shall assume, by written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant, the obligation to deliver to the Holder such shares of stock, securities or assets which, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such Holder shall be entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant (as adjusted described above). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, with respect to any corporate event or other transaction contemplated by the provisions of this Section 6.2, the Holder shall have the right prior to the Expiration Date to elect prior to the consummation of such event or transaction, to give effect to the exercise rights contained in Section 2.1 instead of giving effect to the provisions contained in this Section 6.2 with respect to this Warrant. With respect to any corporate event or other transaction contemplated by the provisions of this Section 6.2 the result of which is that the shareholders of the Company shall receive only cash, the Holder shall only have the right prior to the Expiration Date to elect prior to the consummation of such event or transaction, to give effect to the exercise rights contained in Section 2.1. For purposes hereof, “Person” means any individual, sole proprietorship, partnership, limited liability company, corporation, joint venture, trust, incorporated organization or government or department or agency thereof.
6.3 Notice as to Adjustments. In case of any adjustment or readjustment in the price, number or kind of securities issuable on the exercise of this Warrant, the Company will promptly give written notice thereof to the holder of this Warrant in the form of a notice, certified and confirmed by the Board of Directors of the Company, setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in reasonable detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based.
4 |
6.4 When No Adjustment Required.
(a) No adjustment need be made for a transaction referred to in Section 6.1 or Section 6.2 if the Holder is able to participate in the transaction on a basis and with notice that the Board of Directors of the Company determines to be fair and appropriate in light of the basis and notice on which holders of Common Stock participate in the transaction.
(b) Other than as described in Section 6.1 and Section 6.2 (but subject to Section 6.4(a)), no adjustment need be made for the issuance of any additional shares of Common Stock, preferred shares convertible into Common Stock, or debt, warrants, options or other instruments or securities which are convertible into or exercisable for shares of Common Stock. No adjustment need be made for the issuance of any other securities of the Company (other than as described in Section 6.1 and Section 6.2, subject to Section 6.4(a)).
SECTION 7. FRACTIONAL INTERESTS. No fractional shares may be issued upon any exercise of this Warrant, and any fractions shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares. If upon any exercise of this Warrant, a fraction of a share results, the Company will pay the cash value of any such fractional shares, calculated on the basis of the proportional amount of the Exercise Price for a full share of Common Stock.
SECTION 8. REDEMPTION OF WARRANTS. The Company shall be under no obligation under this Warrant to redeem this Warrant, and this Warrant shall not be redeemable at the Company’s option.
SECTION 9. REPRESENTATION, WARRANTIES AND CERTAIN AGREEMENTS OF THE HOLDER.
The Holder hereby represents and warrants to the Company that:

The Holder represents that such Holder has full power and authority to enter into this Warrant.
9.2 Non-U.S. Person. The Holder is a non-U.S. person (as defined in Regulation S (“Regulation S”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
5 |
9.3 Investment. This Warrant and the Warrant Shares (collectively, the “Securities”) are being acquired for the Holder’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and with no present intention of distributing the Securities or any part thereof, and the Holder has no present intention of selling or granting any participation in or otherwise distributing the same. The Holder was not formed for the purpose of acquiring any of the Securities. If the Holder should in the future decide to dispose of any of the Securities, the Holder understands and agrees (a) that it may do so only in compliance with the Securities Act and applicable state or other securities laws, as then in effect, including a sale contemplated by any registration statement pursuant to which such securities are being offered, or pursuant to an exemption from the Securities Act, and (b) that stop-transfer instructions to that effect will be in effect with respect to such Securities. The Holder further understands and agrees that there is no public trading market for this Warrant, that none is expected to develop, and that this Warrant must be held indefinitely unless and until it is duly exercised and the Warrant Shares are registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from registration is available.
9.4 Disclosure of Information. The Holder conducted its own due diligence on the Company and was afforded: (i) the opportunity to ask such questions as it deemed necessary of, and to receive answers from, representatives of the Company concerning the terms and conditions contained herein and the merits and risks of investing in the Company, (ii) access to information about the Company and its subsidiaries and their respective financial condition, results of operations, business, properties, vessels, management and prospects sufficient to enable you to evaluate the investment, and (iii) the opportunity to obtain such additional information that the Company possesses or can acquire that is necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to the investment and has received all the information requested in connection with your decision to obtain the Securities. The Holder did not receive from the Company or its agents any offering materials or other documents in connection with the issuance of this Warrant.
9.5 Nature of Holder. The Holder understands that the purchase of the Securities involves substantial risk. The Holder represents and warrants to, and covenants and agrees with, the Company that, (i) it is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act, (ii) by reason of its business and financial experience it has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in making similar investments and in business and financial matters generally so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Securities, (iii) was advised by the Company to obtain United States counsel, either obtained United States counsel or had a full and fair opportunity and the means to obtain United States counsel, (iv) is able to bear the economic risk of such investment, (v) would be able to afford a complete loss of such investment, and (vi) was provided access to all information regarding the Company and its business as the Holder desired, and was offered the opportunity to ask questions of management of the Company and to receive any documents and information on the Company. The questionnaire concerning accredited investor status previously signed by the Holder was true when furnished to the Company, remains true on the date hereof, and is not misleading. The Holder has no reason to believe that any statements contained in such questionnaire will change in any material way at any point in the foreseeable future.
6 |
9.6 Restricted Securities; Affiliate Status. The Holder understands that the Securities may be characterized as “restricted securities” under the Securities Act inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations such Securities may be resold (i) without registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances or (ii) if such resale is registered under the Securities Act. In this connection, the Holder represents that it is a sophisticated party knowledgeable with respect to the exemptions from registration available under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws (including, if available, the rules and regulations promulgated under the Securities Act by which securities may be sold without filing a registration statement, including but not limited to §§3-4 of the Securities Act, Regulation A, Regulation D, Rule 701, Regulation S, Rule 144, and Rule 144A). The Holder (i) acknowledges that after the Warrant Issuance Date and/or after issuance of the Warrant Shares, the Holder may be deemed an “affiliate” of the Company under the Securities Act, (ii) acknowledges understanding the additional restrictions under the Securities Act applicable to affiliates of the Company, and (iii) either (a) confirms having discussed such restrictions with United States securities counsel or (b) acknowledges that it both the means and a full and fair opportunity to obtain United States securities counsel and discuss such restrictions prior to entering into this Warrant.
9.7 No General Solicitation or General Advertising; No Directed Selling Efforts. The Holder is not aware any form of general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act) or directed selling efforts (as defined in Regulation S) relating to this Warrant.
9.8 Legends. The Holder understands that any certificates or statements evidencing any Warrant Shares may bear a legend in substantially the following form: “These securities have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). These securities may not be sold or offered for sale except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption from registration thereunder, in each case in accordance with all applicable securities laws of the states or other jurisdictions, and in the case of a transaction exempt from registration, such securities may only be transferred if the Company and transfer agent for such securities has received documentation satisfactory to it that such transaction does not require registration under the Securities Act.”
9.9 Bad Actor. The Holder and its beneficial owners of 20% or more of the Company’s outstanding voting equity securities, calculated on the basis of voting power (each, a “Covered Person”) is not subject to any of the “Bad Actor” disqualifications described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i) to (viii) under the Securities Act (a “Disqualification Event”), except for a Disqualification Event covered by Rule 506(d)(2) or (d)(3) under the Securities Act. The Holder has exercised reasonable care to determine whether any Covered Person is subject to a Disqualification Event. The purchase of the Securities by the Holder will not subject the Company to any Disqualification Event. There are no matters that would have triggered disqualification under Rule 506(d)(1) under the Securities Act but occurred before September 23, 2013.
9.10 No Assignment or Transfer. This Warrant shall not be transferred or assigned by the Holder without prior written consent of the Company.
SECTION 10. NO RIGHTS AS SHAREHOLDER; NO NOTICES TO HOLDER. Nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as conferring upon the Holder or its permitted transferees the right to vote or to receive dividends or to consent to or receive notice as a shareholder in respect of any meeting of shareholders for the election of directors of the Company or any other matter, or any rights whatsoever as a shareholder of the Company.

The undersigned, _______________ (the “Holder”), intends to acquire _______ shares of common stock, US$0.004 par value per share (the “Warrant Shares”), of Globus Maritime Limited, a Xxxxxxxx Islands corporation (the “Company”), from the Company pursuant to the exercise of a certain Warrant to purchase Common Shares held by the Holder dated [l], 2016. The Warrant Shares will be issued to the Holder in a transaction not involving a public offering and pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Securities Act”), and applicable state securities laws. In connection with such purchase and in order to comply with the exemptions from registration relied upon by the Company, the Holder represents, warrants and agrees as follows:
1. The Warrant Shares are being acquired for the Holder’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and with no present intention of distributing the Warrant Shares or any part thereof, and the Holder has no present intention of selling or granting any participation in or otherwise distributing the same. The Holder was not formed for the purpose of acquiring any of the Warrant Shares. If the Holder should in the future decide to dispose of any of the Warrant Shares, the Holder understands and agrees (a) that it may do so only in compliance with the Securities Act and applicable state or other securities laws, as then in effect, including a sale contemplated by any registration statement pursuant to which such securities are being offered, or pursuant to an exemption from the Securities Act, and (b) that stop-transfer instructions to that effect will be in effect with respect to such Warrant Shares.
2. The Holder has received or has had full access to all the information it considers necessary or appropriate to make an informed investment decision with respect to the Warrant Shares. The Holder further has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the Warrant Shares and to obtain additional information (to the extent the Company possessed such information or could acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense) necessary to verify any information furnished to the Holder or to which the Holder had access.
3 |
3. The Holder understands that the purchase of the Warrant Shares involves substantial risk. The Holder represents and warrants to, and covenants and agrees with, the Company, that it (i) is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act, (ii) by reason of its business and financial experience has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in making similar investments and in business and financial matters generally so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Warrant Shares, (iii) was advised by the Company to obtain United States counsel, either obtained United States counsel or had a full and fair opportunity and the means to obtain United States counsel, (iv) is able to bear the economic risk of such investment, would be able to afford a complete loss of such investment, and (v) was provided access to all information regarding the Company and its business as the Holder desired, and was offered the opportunity to ask questions of management of the Company and to receive any documents and information on the Company. The questionnaire concerning accredited investor status previously signed by the Holder was true when furnished to the Company, remains true on the date hereof, and is not misleading. The Holder has no reason to believe that any statements contained in such questionnaire will change in any material way at any point in the foreseeable future.
4. The Holder understands that the Warrant Shares may be characterized as “restricted securities” under the Securities Act inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations such Warrant Shares may be resold (i) without registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances or (ii) if such resale is registered under the Securities Act. In this connection, the Holder represents that it is a sophisticated party knowledgeable with respect to the exemptions from registration under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws (including, if available, the rules and regulations promulgated under the Securities Act by which securities may be sold without filing a registration statement, including but not limited to §§3-4 of the Securities Act, Regulation A, Regulation D, Rule 701, Regulation S, Rule 144, and Rule 144A).
5. Exemptions. The Holder (i) acknowledges that after the Warrant Issuance Date and/or after issuance of the Warrant Shares, the Holder may be deemed an “affiliate” of the Company under the Securities Act, (ii) acknowledges understanding the additional restrictions under the Securities Act applicable to affiliates of the Company, and (iii) either (a) confirms having discussed such restrictions with United States securities counsel or (b) acknowledges that it both the means and a full and fair opportunity to obtain United States securities counsel and discuss such restrictions prior to exercising the relevant Warrant.
6. The Holder is not aware any form of general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act) or directed selling efforts (as defined in Regulation S) relating to the Warrant Shares.
4 |
7. The Holder understands that any certificates or statements evidencing any Warrant Shares may bear a legend in substantially the following form: “These securities have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). These securities may not be sold or offered for sale except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption from registration thereunder, in each case in accordance with all applicable securities laws of the states or other jurisdictions, and in the case of a transaction exempt from registration, such securities may only be transferred if the Company and transfer agent for such securities has received documentation satisfactory to it that such transaction does not require registration under the Securities Act.”
8.

The Holder has exercised reasonable care to determine whether any Covered Person is subject to a Disqualification Event. The purchase of the Warrant Shares by the Holder will not subject the Company to any Disqualification Event.
