Section 2. Exercise.
a) Exercise
of Warrant. Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or (subject to the limitation
set forth in this paragraph 2(a)) in part, at any time or times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Termination
Date by (i) informing the Company (via email sent to XxxxxXxxxx@xxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx) about the Holder’s intention to submit
(or release from escrow, as applicable) a Notice of Exercise and, at least one (1) Trading Day following such information, delivery
to the Company (or such other office, agency or bank of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered
Holder at the address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Company) of the duly executed original of the Notice of Exercise
in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A and (ii) payment of the aggregate Exercise Price for the Common Shares specified in such
Notice of Exercise in cash by wire transfer to the bank account in Switzerland as specified in the Notice of Exercise (or to any
other bank account in Switzerland as specified by the Company) (the “Bank Account”); provided, that
any single exercise shall be for Common Shares with an aggregate Exercise Price of no less than CHF 25,000 (or if the Holder’s
purchase rights hereunder shall then be for Common Shares with an aggregate Exercise Price of less than CHF 25,000, such exercise
shall be for all Common Shares then subject to purchase hereunder). At the Holder’s election, such Xxxxxx may deposit an
executed Notice of Exercise in escrow with the Company and may thereafter provide irrevocable instructions to the Company with
information necessary to complete such Notice of Exercise via email sent to XxxxxXxxxx@xxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx. The Company will
complete such Notice of Exercise with such information and thereafter release such Notice of Exercise from escrow such that the
Notice of Exercise shall be delivered to the Company. Within one (1) Trading Day following the date that a Notice of Exercise
is sent to the Company or, if the Notice of Exercise is held in escrow by the Company, the date that the relevant instruction
to complete the Notice of Exercise is sent via email to the Company, the Holder shall deliver the aggregate Exercise Price for
the Common Shares specified in such Notice of Exercise to the Bank Account. No medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee
or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise form shall be required. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder
shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares
available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the
Company for cancellation within three (3) Trading Days of the date the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company. Partial
exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall
have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable
number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased
and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise within one (1) Business Day
of receipt of such notice. If there is no effective registration statement under the Securities Act permitting the issuance of
Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant, a Holder may not exercise the purchase rights represented by this Warrant unless
such Holder, at the time of such exercise, is an Accredited Investor and such Holder, at the Company’s request, represents
the same to the Company in writing. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that,
by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number
of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
b) Exercise
Price. The exercise price per Common Share under this Warrant shall be CHF [_____], subject to adjustment hereunder
(the “Exercise Price”). In no event shall the Exercise Price be adjusted below the nominal value (or U.S. dollar
equivalent) of the Common Shares, which is CHF 0.02 as of the Initial Exercise Date.
c) If
an executed Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company in accordance with the provisions of Section 2(a) at a time when there
is no effective registration statement registering, or the prospectus contained therein is not available for, the issuance of the
Warrant Shares to the Holder (“Registration Unavailability Period”), then, (i) the Company shall pay to the
Holder, in cash, an amount equal to the product of (A-B) and (X) and (ii) the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder
shall be decreased by an amount equal to (X), where:
(A) = the
last VWAP immediately preceding the time of delivery of the executed Notice of Exercise during the Registration Unavailability
Period (to clarify, the “last VWAP” will be the last VWAP as calculated over an entire Trading Day such that, in the
event the Notice of Exercise is delivered at a time that the Trading Market is open, the prior Trading Day’s VWAP shall be
used in this calculation);
(B) = the
Exercise Price of this Warrant, as adjusted hereunder; and
(X) = the number
of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant pursuant to the executed Notice of Exercise delivered during
the Registration Unavailability Period.
i. Delivery
of Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. Following the date that the Company receives the latter of the executed Notice of Exercise
and the applicable Exercise Price, the board of directors of the Company shall carry out and file the capital increase based on
the Company’s authorized share capital, and the register of commerce of the canton of Zug, Switzerland, shall record the
respective capital increase and the amended articles of incorporation, respectively, in the commercial register, all in accordance
with Swiss law. The Company shall cause the Warrant Shares purchased hereunder to be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Holder
by crediting the account of the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company through
its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and
there is an effective registration statement under the Securities Act permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale
of the Warrant Shares by Holder, and otherwise by physical delivery of a certificate, registered in the Company’s share register
in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise
to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that is seven (7) Trading Days following the date
that the Company receives the latter of the executed Notice of Exercise and the applicable Exercise Price (such date, the “Warrant
Share Delivery Date”). With respect to a Holder that elects to deposit an executed Notice of Exercise with the Company,
such Holder shall be deemed, for purposes of Regulation SHO, to have become a holder of the Warrant Shares with respect to which
this Warrant has been exercised upon the email delivery of the relevant instruction necessary to complete the Notice of Exercise
to the Company. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the Warrant Shares subject to a Notice of Exercise
by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for
each CHF 1,000 of Warrant Shares subject to such exercise (based on the VWAP of the Common Shares on the date of the applicable
Notice of Exercise), CHF 5 per Trading Day (increasing to CHF 10 per Trading Day on the seventh Trading Day after such liquidated
damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after such Warrant Share Delivery Date until such Warrant Shares are delivered. The
Company agrees to maintain a transfer agent that is a participant in the FAST program so long as this Warrant remains outstanding
and exercisable.
ii. Delivery
of New Warrants Upon Exercise. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request of a Holder
and upon surrender of this Warrant, at the time of delivery of the Warrant Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing
the rights of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all
other respects be identical with this Warrant.
iii. [Reserved].
iv. Compensation
for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. In addition to any other rights available to the Holder,
if the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares in accordance with the provisions
of Section 2(d)(i) above pursuant to an exercise on or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date, and if after such date the Holder
is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise
purchases, Common Shares to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated
receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder the amount,
if any, by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the Common Shares so
purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver
to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to
such purchase obligation was executed (without deducting brokerage commissions, if any), and (B) at the option of the Holder, either
reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored (in which
case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of Common Shares that would have been issued
had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases Common
Shares having a total purchase price of CHF 11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of Common Shares with
an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of CHF 10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence
the Company shall be required to pay the Holder CHF 1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts
payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein
shall limit a Xxxxxx’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without
limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver
Common Shares upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
v. No
Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise
of this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the
Company shall, at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction
multiplied by the Exercise Price or round up to the next whole share.
vi. Charges,
Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or
other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such Warrant Shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the
Company, and such Warrant Shares shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder;
provided, however, that in the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder,
this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto as Exhibit B duly executed
by the Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer
tax incidental thereto. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Exercise
and all fees to the Depository Trust Company (or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions) required
for same-day electronic delivery of the Warrant Shares.
vii. Closing
of Books. The Company will not close its shareholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this
Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof.
e) Xxxxxx’s
Exercise Limitations. The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise
any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 2 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after
exercise as set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any other
Persons acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates (such Persons, “Attribution
Parties”)), would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below), provided that
this restriction shall not apply with respect to exercises of this Warrant by a Holder to the extent such Holder together with
its Affiliates and Attribution Parties beneficially owned in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation prior to the Initial
Exercise Date. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of Common Shares beneficially owned by the Holder and its
Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the number of Common Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect
to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of Common Shares which would be issuable upon (i) exercise
of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution
Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including,
without limitation, any other Common Share Equivalents) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation
contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in
the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 2(e), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section
13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Company
is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Holder
is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained
in this Section 2(e) applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by
the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in
the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination
of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution
Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and
the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to
any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 2(e), in determining the number of outstanding Common Shares,
a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding Common Shares as reflected in (A) the Company’s most recent annual report
filed with the Commission, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (C) a more recent written notice by the Company
or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of Common Shares outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder,
the Company shall within two Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of Common Shares then outstanding.
In any case, the number of outstanding Common Shares shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities
of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its Affiliates or Attribution Parties since the date as of which such
number of outstanding Common Shares was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% of the
number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of Common Shares issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant. The Holder, upon notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of
this Section 2(e), provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of Common Shares outstanding
immediately after giving effect to the issuance of Common Shares upon exercise of this Warrant held by the Holder and the provisions
of this Section 2(e) shall continue to apply. Any increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the
61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented
in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 2(e) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof)
which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or
supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall
apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.
Section 3. Certain
Adjustments.
a) Share
Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) pays a share dividend or otherwise
makes a distribution or distributions on Common Shares or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in Common Shares
(which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any Common Shares issued by the Company upon exercise of this Warrant), (ii)
subdivides outstanding Common Shares into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of reverse share split) outstanding
Common Shares into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues by reclassification of the Common Shares any shares of capital share
of the Company, then in each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number
of Common Shares (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall
be the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after such event, and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise
of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant shall remain unchanged.
Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination
of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date
in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.
b) Subsequent
Equity Sales. If the Company or any subsidiary thereof, as applicable, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, shall
sell or grant any option to purchase, or sell or grant any right to reprice, or otherwise dispose of or issue (or announce any
offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition) any Common Shares or Convertible Securities, at an effective
price per share less than the Exercise Price then in effect (such lower price, the “Base Share Price” and such issuances
collectively, a “Dilutive Issuance”) (it being understood and agreed that if the holder of the Common Shares or Convertible
Securities so issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase price adjustments, reset provisions, floating conversion,
exercise or exchange prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options or rights per share which are issued in connection with
such issuance, be entitled to receive Common Shares at an effective price per share that is less than the Exercise Price, such
issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Exercise Price on such date of the Dilutive Issuance at such effective
price), then simultaneously with the consummation of each Dilutive Issuance the Exercise Price shall be reduced to equal the higher
of (i) the Base Share Price or (ii) CHF 0.05 (the “Floor Price” (such Floor Price to subject to adjustment in accordance
with Section 3(a)). For the avoidance of doubt, if more than one security is issued in a transaction that is being analyzed to
determine whether a Dilutive Issuance has occurred and/or to determine a Base Share Price, each security so issued shall be analyzed
separately with respect to such determinations such that the lowest effective price per share with respect to each such security
shall be used. For example, if the existing exercise price under this Warrant is CHF 1.00 and the Company issues units for CHF
0.90 per unit, with each unit comprised of one (1) Common Share and one (1) Warrant exercisable for one (1) Common Share, which
new warrant has an exercise price of CHF 1.50 per share, the Base Share Price will be CHF 0.90. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
no adjustments shall be made, paid or issued under this Section 3(b) in respect of an Exempt Issuance. The Company shall notify
the Holder, in writing, no later than the Trading Day following the issuance or deemed issuance of any Common Shares or Convertible
Securities subject to this Section 3(b), indicating therein the applicable issuance price, or applicable reset price, exchange
price, conversion price and other pricing terms (such notice, the “Dilutive Issuance Notice”). For purposes of clarification,
whether or not the Company provides a Dilutive Issuance Notice pursuant to this Section 3(b), upon the occurrence of any Dilutive
Issuance, the Holder is entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares based upon the Base Share Price regardless of whether the
Holder accurately refers to the Base Share Price in the Notice of Exercise. For all purposes of the foregoing (including, without
limitation, determining the Base Share Price under this Section 3(b)), the following shall be applicable:
i. Issuance of Options. If the Company in any manner grants or sells any Options and the lowest price per share for which Common Share is at any time issuable upon the exercise of any such Option or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of any such Option or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof is less than the Exercise Price then in effect, then such Common Share shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the granting or sale of such Option for such price per share. For purposes of this Section 3(b)(i), the “lowest price per share for which one Common Share is issuable upon the exercise of any such Options or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of any such Option or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof” shall be equal to (1) the lower of (x) the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to any one Common Share upon the granting or sale of such Option, upon exercise of such Option and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Security issuable upon exercise of such Option or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof and (y) the lowest exercise price set forth in such Option for which one Common Share is issuable upon the exercise of any such Options or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of any such Option or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof minus (2) the sum of all amounts paid or payable to the holder of such Option (or any other Person) upon the granting or sale of such Option, upon exercise of such Option and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Security issuable upon exercise of such Option or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof plus the value of any other consideration received or receivable by, or benefit conferred on, the holder of such Option (or any other Person). Except as contemplated below, no further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such Common Shares or of such Convertible Securities upon the exercise of such Options or otherwise pursuant to the terms of or upon the actual issuance of such Common Shares upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Securities.
ii. Issuance of Convertible Securities. If the Company in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities and the lowest price per share for which one Common Share is at any time issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof is less than the Exercise Price then in effect, then such Common Share shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities for such price per share. For the purposes of this Section 3(b)(ii), the “lowest price per share for which one Common Share is issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof” shall be equal to (1) the lower of (x) the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to one Common Share upon the issuance or sale of the Convertible Security and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Security or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof and (y) the lowest conversion price set forth in such Convertible Security for which one Common Share is issuable upon conversion, exercise or exchange thereof or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof minus (2) the sum of all amounts paid or payable to the holder of such Convertible Security (or any other Person) upon the issuance or sale of such Convertible Security plus the value of any other consideration received or receivable by, or benefit conferred on, the holder of such Convertible Security (or any other Person). Except as contemplated below, no further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such Common Shares upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Securities or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof, and if any such issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities is made upon exercise of any Options for which adjustment of this Warrant has been or is to be made pursuant to other provisions of this Section 3(b), except as contemplated below, no further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made by reason of such issuance or sale.
iii. Change in Option Price or Rate of Conversion. If the purchase or exercise price provided for in any Options, the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issue, conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities, or the rate at which any Convertible Securities are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Shares increases or decreases at any time (other than proportional changes in conversion or exercise prices, as applicable, in connection with an event referred to in Section 3(a)), the Exercise Price in effect at the time of such increase or decrease shall be adjusted to the Exercise Price which would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible Securities provided for such increased or decreased purchase price, additional consideration or increased or decreased conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold. For purposes of this Section 3(b)(iii), if the terms of any Option or Convertible Security that was outstanding as of the Initial Exercise Date are increased or decreased in the manner described in the immediately preceding sentence, then such Option or Convertible Security and the Common Shares deemed issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date of such increase or decrease. No adjustment pursuant to this Section 3(b) shall be made if such adjustment would result in an increase of the Exercise Price then in effect.
iv. Calculation of Consideration Received. If any Common Shares, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of such consideration received by the Company will be the fair value of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of publicly traded securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by the Company for such securities will be the Market Price immediately preceding the date of receipt. If any Common Shares, Options or Convertible Securities are issued to the owners of the non-surviving entity in connection with any merger in which the Company is the surviving entity, the amount of consideration therefor will be deemed to be the fair value of such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving entity as is attributable to such Common Shares, Options or Convertible Securities (as the case may be); provided that this provision shall not apply to any merger executed for the primary purpose of effectuating a reverse stock split. The fair value of any consideration other than cash or publicly traded securities will be determined jointly by the Company and the Holder. If such parties are unable to reach agreement within ten (10) days after the occurrence of an event requiring valuation (the “Valuation Event”), the fair value of such consideration will be determined within five (5) Trading Days after the tenth (10th) day following such Valuation Event by an independent, reputable appraiser jointly selected by the Company and the Holder. The determination of such appraiser shall be final and binding upon all parties absent manifest error and the fees and expenses of such appraiser shall be borne by the Company.
v. Record Date. If the Company takes a record of the holders of Common Shares for the purpose of entitling them (A) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in Common Shares, Options or in Convertible Securities or (B) to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares, Options or Convertible Securities, then such record date will be deemed to be the date of the issuance or sale of the Common Shares deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase (as the case may be).
c) Cash
Dividends. During such time as this Warrant is outstanding, if the Company shall declare or make any cash dividend or other
cash distribution to holders of Common Shares (a “Cash Dividend”), at any time after the issuance of this Warrant,
then, then (i) any Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination
of holders of Common Shares entitled to receive the Cash Dividend shall be reduced, effective as of the close of business on such
record date, to a price determined by multiplying such Exercise Price by a fraction of which (A) the numerator shall be the
Market Price of the Common Shares on the Trading Day immediately preceding such record date minus the amount of the Cash Dividend
applicable to one Common Share, and (B) the denominator shall be the Market Price of the Common Shares on the Trading Day
immediately preceding such record date; and (ii) the number of Warrant Shares shall be increased to a number of Common Shares
equal to the number of Common Shares obtainable immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed
for the determination of holders of Common Shares entitled to receive the Cash Dividend multiplied by the reciprocal
of the fraction set forth in the immediately preceding clause (i).
d) Fundamental
Transaction. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related
transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company, directly or indirectly,
effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets
in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether
by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Shares are permitted to sell, tender or exchange
their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or more of the outstanding Common
Shares, (iv) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization
or recapitalization of the Common Shares or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Shares are effectively converted
into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, or (v) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions
consummates a share or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization,
recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with another Person or group of Persons whereby such other Person or group
acquires more than 50% of the outstanding Common Shares (not including any Common Shares held by the other Person or other Persons
making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other Persons making or party to, such share or share purchase agreement
or other business combination) (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent exercise of this
Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately
prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the option of the Holder (without regard to any limitation in Section
2(e) on the exercise of this Warrant), the number of Common Shares of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company,
if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable
as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of Common Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately
prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation in Section 2(e) on the exercise of this Warrant). For purposes
of any such exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration
based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one Common Share in such Fundamental Transaction, and the
Company shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value
of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Shares are given any choice as to the securities,
cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate
Consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary, in the event of a Fundamental Transaction (other than a Fundamental Transaction resulting from the merger of the
Company with a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company in which the common shares of the surviving entity remain listed or quoted
on a Trading Market), the Company or any Successor Entity (as defined below) shall, at the Holder’s option, exercisable at
any time concurrently with, or within 30 days after, the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, purchase this Warrant from
the Holder by paying to the Holder an amount of cash equal to the Black Scholes Value of the remaining unexercised portion of this
Warrant on the date of the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction. “Black Scholes Value” means the value
of this Warrant based on the Black and Scholes Option Pricing Model obtained from the “OV” function on Bloomberg, L.P.
(“Bloomberg”) determined as of the day of consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction for pricing
purposes and reflecting (A) a risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the time between
the date of the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date, (B) an expected volatility
equal to the greater of 100% and the 100 day volatility obtained from the HVT function on Bloomberg as of the Trading Day immediately
following the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, (C) the underlying price per share used in such calculation
shall be the sum of the price per share being offered in cash, if any, plus the value of any non-cash consideration, if any, being
offered in such Fundamental Transaction and (D) a remaining option time equal to the time between the date of the public announcement
of the applicable Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date. The payment of the Black Scholes Value will be made by wire
transfer of immediately available funds within five Business Days of the Holder’s election (or, if later, on the effective
date of the Fundamental Transaction). The Company shall cause any successor
entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume
in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3(e) pursuant
to written agreements prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the Holder, deliver to the Holder in exchange
for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance
to this Warrant which is exercisable for a corresponding number of shares in the share capital of such Successor Entity (or its
parent entity) equivalent to the Common Shares acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations
on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an exercise price which applies the exercise price
hereunder to such shares (but taking into account the relative value of the Common Shares pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction
and the value of such shares, such number of shares and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value
of this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction). Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental
Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental
Transaction, the provisions of this Warrant referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity),
and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant
with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein.
e) Calculations.
All calculations under this Section 3 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be.
For purposes of this Section 3, the number of Common Shares deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the
sum of the number of Common Shares (excluding treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.
i. Adjustment
to Exercise Price. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 3, the Company shall promptly
publish on its website at xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and any resulting
adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.
ii. Notice
to Allow Exercise by Xxxxxx. If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the
Common Shares, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Shares, (C)
the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Shares rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any
shares of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any shareholders of the Company shall be required in connection with
any reclassification of the Common Shares, any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, any sale or transfer of
all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Shares is converted
into other securities, cash or property, or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation
or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be published on its website at xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx,
at least 20 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date
on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record
is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Shares of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions,
redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale,
transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the
Common Shares of record shall be entitled to exchange their Common Shares for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon
such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; provided that the failure to deliver such notice
or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified
in such notice. To the extent that any notice required by this Warrant constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information
regarding the Company, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Report on Form 6-K.
The Holder shall remain entitled to exercise this Warrant during the period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective
date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein.
g) Applicability
of article 653d para. 2 Swiss Code Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that article
653d para. 2 Swiss Code Obligations shall apply.
Section 4. Transfer
of Warrant.
a) Transferability.
Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or
in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company or its designated agent, together with a written
assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney and funds
sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment,
the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable, and in
the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing
the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company unless the Holder has assigned this
Warrant in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company within three (3) Trading Days of the date
on which the Holder delivers an assignment form to the Company assigning this Warrant in full. The Warrant, if properly assigned
in accordance herewith, may be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued.
b) New
Warrants. This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the
Company, together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by
the Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section 4(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in such
division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants
to be divided or combined in accordance with such notice. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the initial
issuance date of this Warrant and shall be identical with this Warrant except as to the number of Warrant Shares issuable pursuant
thereto.
c) Warrant
Register. The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the “Warrant
Register”), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the registered
Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and
for all other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.
Section 5. Miscellaneous.
a) No
Rights as Shareholder Until Exercise. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights
as a shareholder of the Company. Upon receipt by the Company of a Notice of Exercise executed by a Holder and the applicable Exercise
Price, such Holder shall be entitled to the voting rights, dividends and other rights as a shareholder of the Company with respect
to the Common Shares specified in such Notice of Exercise.
b) Loss,
Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any share certificate relating to the Warrant
Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of
the Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or share certificate,
if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or share certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation,
in lieu of such Warrant or share certificate.
c) Saturdays,
Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or
granted herein shall not be a Business Day, then, such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding
Business Day.
d) Authorized
Capital.
| e) | During the term of this Warrant, the Company will at all times have authorized and reserved a sufficient
number of its Common Shares as authorized capital (genehmigtes Kapital) to allow for the issuance of Common Shares following the
exercise of Warrants as provided for herein. In view of this requirement, the Company's board of directors will propose to its
shareholders' meeting from time to time, but at the latest one (1) month prior to the expiration of authorized capital in an amount
that leaves insufficient authorized capital for the issuance of all Common Shares following the exercise of all Warrants as provided
for herein, to increase or create authorized capital in an amount sufficient to cover all Warrants as provided for herein. Should
the shareholders meeting not approve the proposal of the Company's board of directors, the Company will immediately, but no later
than one (1) Trading Day following the respective shareholders' meeting, publicly announce such fact in a press release, post the
press release on its website and file the press release on a Report on Form 6-K with the Commission. The Company acknowledges that
compensation for damages may not be sufficient remedy for the Holder in case of the Company’s failure to comply with its
obligations under this paragraph and therefore expressly confirms that the Holder may in such case request specific performance
(Realerfüllung) upon due exercise of its purchase rights pursuant to Section 2 hereof from time to time by obligating the
Company to deliver such number of shares as would have been issued to the Holder in connection with such exercise of its purchase
rights from time to time. |
| f) | The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant
Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, including by maintaining an effective
registration statement under the Securities Act permitting the issuance of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant from the
Initial Exercise Date until the Termination Date, or of any requirements of the Trading Market upon which the Common Shares may
be listed. The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented
by this Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant and payment for such Warrant Shares in accordance
herewith, after the board of directors of the Company has carried out the capital increase and the competent register of commerce
has recorded the respective capital increase and the issuance of the Warrant Shares, respectively, in the commercial register,
all in accordance with Swiss law, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens
and charges created by the Company in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously
with such issue). |
| g) | Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any
action, including, without limitation, amending its articles of incorporation or through any 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 of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such
terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Xxxxxx as set forth in
this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the nominal
value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in nominal
value, (ii) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully
paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant, payment for such Warrant Shares and registration of the
respective capital increase in the commercial register and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations,
exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may be, necessary to enable the Company
to perform its obligations under this Warrant. |
Before taking
any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the
Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary
from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.
h) Governing
Law. This Warrant shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, excluding
conflict of laws principles that would cause the application of laws of any other jurisdiction. For the avoidance of doubt, matters
involving the rights of shareholders, issuance of Common Shares and the validity of Common Shares shall be governed by the laws
of Switzerland.
i) Restrictions.
The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered, will have restrictions
upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws.
j) Nonwaiver
and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate
as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the Holder’s rights, powers or remedies. Without limiting any other provision
of this Warrant, if the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any
material damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to the Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and
expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by
the Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.
k) Notices.
Any notice, request or other document required or permitted to be given or delivered to the Holder by the Company shall be delivered
to the address of the Holder set forth in the Warrant Register.
l) Limitation
of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase
Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Holder
for the purchase price of any Common Share or as a shareholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company
or by creditors of the Company.
m) Remedies.
The Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled
to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation
for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive and not to assert
the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.
n) Successors
and Assigns. Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure
to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns
of Holder. The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of any Holder from time to time of this Warrant and
shall be enforceable by the Holder or holder of Warrant Shares.
o) Amendment.
This Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company and the Holder.
p) Severability.
Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable
law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective
to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions
of this Warrant.
q) Headings.
The headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of
this Warrant.
