JULY 3, 2019
THIS COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT (this “Warrant”) of DPW Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), is issued by the Company as of the date hereof pursuant to that certain Exchange Agreement dated of even date herewith, by and between the Company and the Holder (the “Exchange Agreement”). All terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Exchange Agreement.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the Company hereby certifies that [●], and its successors and assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled to purchase from the Company 1,000,000 duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a purchase price equal to $0.22 per share, as may be adjusted under this Warrant (the “Warrant Price”) or pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement. The Holder is registered on the records of the Company regarding registration and transfer of the Warrant (the “Warrant Register”) and is the owner and Holder for all purposes, except as described in Section 11 below.
1. Warrant. This Warrant shall be immediately exercisable once the Company shall have obtained Exchange Approval therefor.
2. Expiration of Warrant. This Warrant shall expire on July 2, 2024 (the “Expiration Date”).
3. Exercise of Warrant. This Warrant shall be exercisable under the terms of Section 1 and this Section 3.
Net Number = (A x B) - (A x C)
B
For purposes of the foregoing formula:
A = the total number of Warrant Shares that Holder is then purchasing.
B = the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date of the Exercise Notice.
C = the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Warrant Shares at the time of such exercise.
Anything to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Holder be entitled to exercise any portion of this Warrant in excess of that portion of this Warrant upon exercise of which the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and the Holder’s affiliates (other than shares of Common Stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the unexercised portion of the Warrant or the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other of the Company’s securities subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitations contained herein) and (2) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the portion of this Warrant with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made, would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 9.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (“Ownership Limitation”). Beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), and Regulations 13D - G thereunder, provided, further, however, that the limitations on exercised may be waived by the Holder upon, at the election of the Holder, not less than 61 days’ prior notice to the Company, and the provisions of the exercise limitation shall continue to apply until such 61st day (or such later date, as determined by the Holder, as may be specified in such notice of waiver).
The Warrant Price and the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment with respect to events after the date hereof as follows:
4.2 Number of Shares. Upon each adjustment of the Warrant Price as a result of the calculations made in Section 4.1, this Warrant shall thereafter evidence the right to purchase, at the adjusted Warrant Price, that number of shares (calculated to the nearest one-hundredth) obtained by dividing (i) the product obtained by multiplying the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant prior to adjustment of the number of shares by Warrant Price in effect prior to adjustment of the Warrant Price by (ii) the Warrant Price in effect after such adjustment of the Warrant Price.
5. Fractional Shares. If the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant is adjusted under Section 4, the Company shall nevertheless not be required to issue fractions of shares upon exercise of this Warrant or otherwise, or to distribute certificates that evidence fractional shares. Instead the Company will issue cash in the amount equal to the fractional share times the Closing Price on the trading day immediately preceding the exercise calculated to the nearest xxxxx.
7. Chief Financial Officer’s Report as to Adjustments. In the case of any adjustment or re-adjustment in the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants, the Company at its expense will promptly compute the adjustment or re-adjustment in accordance with the terms of the Warrants and cause its Chief Financial Officer to certify the computation (other than any computation of the fair value of property as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company) and prepare a report setting forth the adjustment or re-adjustment and showing in reasonable detail the method of calculation thereof and the facts upon which the adjustment or re-adjustment is based, including a statement of (a) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding or deemed to be outstanding and (b) the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to the deemed issuance or sale and as adjusted and re-adjusted (if required by Section 4 above) on account thereof. The Company will mail a copy of each report to the Holder promptly and will, upon the written request at any time of the Holder, furnish to the Holder a like report setting forth the Warrant Price at the time in effect and showing in reasonable detail how it was calculated. The Company will also keep copies of all reports at its office maintained under Section 11.2(a) hereof and will cause them to be available for inspection at the office during normal business hours upon reasonable notice by the Holder or any prospective purchaser of the Warrants designated by the Holder.
8. Reservation of Shares. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof and not be subject to preemptive rights or other similar rights of stockholders of the Company, solely for the purpose of effecting the exercise of the Warrants, such number of its shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the exercise thereof, and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the exercise of the Warrants, in addition to such other remedies as shall be available to the Holder, the Company will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes, including without limitation, using its best efforts to obtain the requisite stockholder approval necessary to increase the number of authorized shares of the Company’s Common Stock. All shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants shall be duly authorized and, when issued upon exercise, shall be validly issued and, in the case of shares, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all preemptive or similar rights, taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof, and that upon issuance such shares shall be listed on each securities exchange, if any, on which the other shares of outstanding Common Stock of the Company are then listed.
9. Listing. The Company shall always comply in all respects with the Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the by-laws or rules of each national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system upon which shares of Common Stock are then listed and shall list the shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants on such national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system.
