(b) Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company (an affidavit of the Holder, including indemnification reasonably acceptable to the Company) of the ownership and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Warrant or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender of such Warrant, the Company shall (at its expense) execute and deliver in lieu of such Warrant a new Warrant of like kind and tenor representing the same rights represented by and dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant. Any such new Warrant shall constitute an original contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the allegedly lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed Warrant shall be at any time enforceable by any Person.

(a) The Company represents and warrants that the authorized Equity Interest of the Company consists solely of (i) 5,000,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of which only [__]¹common shares have been issued as of the date hereof and (ii) 500,000,000 shares of preferred stock, of which [__]² preferred shares have been issued as of the date hereof. The shares of common stock of the Company issued and outstanding as of the date hereof are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. The delivery to the Holder of certificates representing the Equity Interest that the Holder purchases pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant shall grant to the Holder good and valid title to the Equity Interest represented by such certificate, free and clear of any and all liens, pledges, security interests, charges or encumbrances of any kind or nature or any option, warrant or trust having the practical effect of any of the foregoing.

¹ To be updated accordingly as of the date of issuance of this Warrant.

² To be updated accordingly as of the date of issuance of this Warrant.

(b) Immediately upon the exercise of this Warrant in accordance with Section 3.1, the Company (the “Delivery Date”) shall issue the Equity Interest that the Holder has purchased pursuant to such exercise, deliver to the Holder the certificates representing such Equity Interest and reflect the issuance of such Equity Interest, which Equity Interest shall be duly authorized, validly issued, outstanding, fully paid and non-assessable, in the Company’s shareholder records (maintained by the Company or its duly appointed transfer agent), whereupon the Holder shall be deemed for all purposes, effective as of the Delivery Date, to be a holder of record and beneficial owner of the Equity Interest that it has purchased pursuant to such exercise.

(c) If a Holder shall exercise this Warrant for less than all of the Equity Interest which could be purchased or received hereunder, the Company shall issue to the Holder, within five (5) Business Days of the Delivery Date, a new Warrant of like kind and tenor to this Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining Equity Interest represented by the Warrant. This Warrant shall be cancelled upon surrender thereof pursuant to Section 3.1.

(d) The Company shall pay all Taxes (other than any applicable income or similar Taxes payable by a Holder of a Warrant) attributable to the initial issuance of any Equity Interest upon the exercise or exchange of this Warrant or any successor Warrant; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any Tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance of a successor to this Warrant in a name other than that of the Holder of the Warrant being exercised or exchanged.

(e) Except as set forth in any document that is un-redacted and publicly filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, neither the Company nor its Subsidiaries has any liabilities or obligations of any nature (whether absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise and whether due or to become due) which are not fully reflected or reserved against on the balance sheet as of June 30, 2014 in accordance with GAAP, except for liabilities and obligations incurred in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practice since the date thereof.

SECTION 3.3 Adjustment of Holder’s Equity Interest. The Equity Interest issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (such Equity Interest is referred to herein as the “Holder's Equity Interest”) shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in accordance with this Section 3.3. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the number of Equity Interests issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be decreased by any Equity Interests issued under the Initial Warrant prior to the date hereof.

SECTION 3.3.1 Issuance of Additional Equity Interest; Capital Reorganization or Capital Reclassifications. If, at any time after the date hereof, the Equity Interests of the Company shall be changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares of stock or other securities of the Company or of another corporation, whether through reorganization, recapitalization, stock split-up, combination of shares, merger or consolidation (including, without limitation, any subdivision or combination of Equity Interest), then in each case the Company shall cause effective provision to be made so that this Warrant shall, effective as of the effective date of such event retroactive to the record date, if any, of such event, be exercisable or exchangeable for the kind and number of equity securities, cash or other property to which a holder of the Equity Interest deliverable upon exercise or exchange of this Warrant would have been entitled upon such event and any such provision shall include adjustments in respect of such securities or other property that shall be equivalent to the adjustments provided for in this Warrant with respect to such Warrant.

SECTION 3.3.2 Consolidations and Mergers; Dissolution.

(a) If, at any time after the date hereof, the Company shall consolidate with, merge with or into, or sell all or substantially all of its assets or property to, another Person, then the Company shall cause effective provision to be made so that each Warrant shall, effective as of the effective date of such event retroactive to the record date, if any, of such event, be exercisable or exchangeable for the kind and number of shares of stock, membership or other equity interests, other securities, cash or other property to which a holder of the Equity Interest deliverable upon exercise or exchange of such Warrant would have been entitled upon such event. The Company shall not consolidate or merge unless, prior to consummation, the successor corporation (if other than the Company) assumes the obligations of this paragraph by written instrument executed and mailed to the Holder at the Holder’s address set forth in Section 5.1. A sale or lease of all or substantially all the assets of the Company for a consideration (apart from the assumption of obligations) consisting primarily of securities is a consolidation or merger for the foregoing purposes.

(b) In case a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation, or winding up of the Company (other than in connection with a consolidation or merger covered by subsection (a) above) is at any time proposed, the Company shall give at least 30 days’ prior written notice to the Holder. Such notice shall contain: (1) the date on which the transaction is to take place; (2) the record date (which shall be at least 30 days after the giving of the notice) as of which the Holder will be entitled to receive distributions as a result of the transaction; (3) a brief description of the transaction; (4) a brief description of the distributions to be made to the Holder as a result of the transaction and (5) an estimate of the fair value of the distributions.

SECTION 3.3.3 Adjustments to the Current Holder’s Equity Interest. Subject to the terms of this Section 3.3.3, the Current Holder’s Equity Interest (and the Warrant) shall be subject to increase (but not decrease) pursuant to the following:

(a) in the event the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ audited Adjusted EBITDA for the Fiscal Year ending December 31, 2018 does not equal or exceed $19,250,000 (the “Target EBITDA”), the new Current Holder’s Equity Interest applicable to the Warrant shall increase (but not decrease) by a percentage equal to the ratio (the “Conversion Ratio”) of (i)(a) the Target EBITDA, minus (b) the audited Adjusted EBITDA of the Company and its Subsidiaries for such Fiscal Year to (ii) the audited Adjusted EBITDA of the Company and its Subsidiaries for such Fiscal Year.

(b) Solely for the purposes of illustration, an example of the calculations described in this Section 3.3.3 is set forth on Schedule 3.3.3 attached hereto.

SECTION 3.3.4 Notice; Calculations; Etc. Whenever the Equity Interest issuable hereunder shall be adjusted as provided in this Section 3.3, the Company shall provide to the Holder a statement, signed by an Executive Officer, describing in detail the facts requiring such adjustment and setting forth a calculation of the Equity Interest applicable to each Warrant after giving effect to such adjustment. All calculations under this Section 3.3 shall be made to the nearest one hundredth of a cent or to the nearest one-tenth of a unit, as the case may be.

ARTICLE IV

CERTAIN OTHER RIGHTS

SECTION 4.1 Registration Rights.

(a) At any time at which this Warrant or the Equity Interest underlying the same remains outstanding, upon the request of the Holder, the Company will enter into a registration rights agreement with Holder (the “Rights Agreement”). Such Rights Agreement shall provide that beginning October 1, 2015, if the Company is eligible for the use of a registration statement on Form S-3, then the Holder shall have the right to request an initial registration and thereafter on a quarterly basis after such initial registration shall have been declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, registration of its Equity Interests on Form S-3 or any similar short-form registration (each, a "Demand Registration"). The Rights Agreement will provide that each request for a Demand Registration shall specify the approximate number of Equity Interests requested to be registered and that the Company shall cause a registration statement on Form S-3 (or any successor form) to be filed within twenty (20) days after the date on which the initial request is given and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Commission as soon as practicable thereafter. The Rights Agreement will provide that the Company may postpone for up to ninety (90) days the filing or effectiveness of a registration statement for a Demand Registration if the Company determines in its reasonable good faith judgment that such Demand Registration would (i) materially interfere with a significant acquisition, corporate reorganization or other similar transaction involving the Company; (ii) require premature disclosure of material information that the Company has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as confidential; or (iii) render the Company unable to comply with requirements under the Securities Act or Exchange Act. The Rights Agreement shall contain such other terms and conditions applicable to the Holder no less favorable to the Holder than registration rights made available to any other holder of any Equity Interest or other equity security of the Company.

(b) The rights to cause the Company to register Equity Interests pursuant hereto may be assigned (but only with all related obligations) by the Holder in a Qualified Assignment; provided, that, (i) the Company is, upon or within a reasonable time after such transfer, furnished with written notice of the name and address of such transferee and the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being assigned, (ii) such transferee or assignee agrees in writing to be bound by and subject to the terms and conditions of this Warrant, (iii) such assignment shall be effective only if immediately following such transfer the further disposition of such securities by transferee or assignee is restricted under the Securities Act, and (iv) such assignment shall be effective only if immediately following such transfer such Equity Interests continue to be Equity Interests of the Company.

SECTION 4.2 Put Rights.

(a) At any time during the period beginning after occurrence of a Put Event and ending on the fifth (5^th) anniversary of the First Warrant Effective Date, not less than twenty (20) days prior to a Put Event, the Company shall give to the Holder written notice of such Put Event (the “Put Event Notice”), which shall set forth in reasonable detail a description of the transactions expected to result in such Put Event and the anticipated effective date thereof.

(b) The Holder may (or, in the case of clause (e) of the definition of “Put Event”, the Holder shall), at any time and from time to time, require the Company to purchase all or any portion of its Equity Interest (issued or represented by this Warrant, including any successor Warrant(s)) by notifying the Company in writing (the “Put Notice”) of its desire to cause the Company to repurchase all (or any portion) of its Equity Interest (issued or represented by this Warrant, including any successor Warrant(s)) (the “Put”) at a price equal to the Put Price if all of Holder’s Equity Interest (issued or represented by this Warrant, including any successor Warrant(s)) are required to be purchased pursuant to the Put, or, if only a portion of the Holder’s Equity Interest (issued or represented by this Warrant, including any successor Warrant(s)) is required to be purchased pursuant to the Put, an amount equal to the percentage of the total Put Price corresponding to such portion (by way of example, if a 50% portion of the total of Holder’s Equity Interest (issued or represented by this Warrant, including any successor Warrant(s)) is required to be purchased pursuant to the Put, then the Company will pay 50% of the total Put Price for such portion of Holder’s Equity Interest). A Put Notice may not be given if the Company has previously provided the Holder with a Call Notice.

(c) The rights of the Holder pursuant to this Section 4.2 with respect to any Put Event may be waived by the Holder, notwithstanding delivery of a Put Notice, at any time on or prior to the tenth (10^th) Business Day after the determination of the Put Price applicable to such Put Event.

(d) Within ten (10) Business Days following the delivery of a Put Notice (or, if applicable, immediately upon consummation of the Put Event if later), the Company shall purchase, and the Holder shall sell, the Equity Interest (issued or represented by this Warrant, including any successor Warrant(s)) specified in the Put Notice at the offices of the Holder (the “Put Closing”).

(e) If the Company shall not have funds legally available in the amount necessary to purchase the Holder's entire Equity Interest (issued or represented by this Warrant, including any successor Warrant(s)) with respect to which the Put has been exercised, then the Equity Interest (issued or represented by this Warrant, including any successor Warrant(s)) with respect to which the Holder has exercised the Put shall be repurchased on a pro rata basis, in accordance with the Equity Interest (issued or represented by this Warrant, including any successor Warrant(s)) held by the Holder. Any Put not satisfied in full pursuant to the terms of this Section 4.2 shall remain an obligation of the Company in accordance with Section 4.2(f) hereof until such time as such satisfaction shall have occurred. The amount equal to the aggregate Put Price attributable to such not satisfied portion of the Put shall be added to the principal of the Note and shall be subject to all terms and conditions and be secured by the collateral as set forth in the Note (the Company shall promptly issue an amended and restated Note with such increased principal amount; all other terms of the Note shall be unchanged).

(f) Notwithstanding anything contained in Section 4.2(e) hereof to the contrary, if the Company is unable in accordance with Applicable Law to purchase all of the Warrants and/or Equity Interest underlying same which are the subject of a Put Notice, the Company shall if so requested in writing by the Holder exercising Put rights, (i) purchase in accordance with the Put Notice the maximum number of such put Warrants and/or Equity Interest underlying same which the Company may purchase and (ii) in one or more installments, at the earliest time that the Company may lawfully do so, purchase all remaining put Warrants and/or Equity Interest underlying same and pay interest at the rate of 15% (or the maximum rate of interest permitted by Applicable Law) per annum on the amount of the aggregate Put Price attributable to such remaining Warrants and/or Equity Interest underlying same from the Put Closing to the date on which such amount is paid in full; provided, however, that, to the extent the Company is unable to pay such amount or a portion thereof, such amount or a portion thereof, as applicable, shall be added to the principal of the Note and shall be subject to all terms and conditions and be secured by the collateral as set forth in the Note (the Company shall promptly issue an amended and restated Note with such increased principal amount; all other terms of the Note shall be unchanged). In the event that, based on the values of the Company's assets and liabilities reflected in the books and records of the Company, it would be unlawful, under applicable state laws, for it to purchase Warrants and/or the Equity Interest underlying same, or pay the Put Price therefor, the Company hereby agrees, if and to the extent permitted by borrowing agreements of the Company then in place and applicable law, to revalue its assets and liabilities based upon their current fair market value, and to take such other action as may be necessary, to cause such purchase to no longer be unlawful. In furtherance of this Section 4.2(f), within three (3) days following the determination of the Put Price, the Company will determine whether or not it will have legally available funds in an amount necessary to purchase all Warrants and/or Equity Interest underlying same at the Put Closing, and shall, within two days thereafter, notify the Holder in writing if such funds shall not be available.

(g) At the Put Closing, the Holder shall deliver to the Company the Warrant, if any, and the Company shall deliver to the Holder an amount equal to the Put Price corresponding to the Holder's Warrant and/or Equity Interest underlying same, by cashier's or certified check of a creditworthy financial institution payable to the Holder or by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Holder.

(h) Subject to the Subordination Agreement and the Senior Loan Documents, the Company shall not enter into any agreement, understanding, or transaction (including, without limitation, pursuant to any amendment or modification of the Organizational Documents) pursuant to which the Company shall be required, or makes a covenant, representation or warranty, to prevent or to impair (contractually or otherwise) the exercise of the Put rights provided for in this Section 4.2 or the obligation of the Company to pay the Put Price.

(i) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the rights set forth in this Section 4.2 shall be subject to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, and all of Holder's rights under this Warrant are subject to the Subordination Agreement and the Senior Loan Documents.

SECTION 4.3 Call Rights.

(a) At any time during the period beginning after occurrence of a Call Event and ending on the fifth (5^th) anniversary of the First Warrant Effective Date, not less than twenty (20) days prior to a Call Event, the Company shall give to the Holder written notice of such Call Event (the “Call Event Notice”), which shall set forth in reasonable detail a description of the transactions expected to result in such Call Event and the anticipated effective date thereof.

(b) The Company may require the Holder to sell all or any portion of its Equity Interest (issued or represented by this Warrant, including any successor Warrant(s)) to the Company by notifying the Holder in writing (the “Call Notice”) of its desire to cause the Holder to sell all (or any portion) of its Equity Interest (issued or represented by this Warrant, including any successor Warrant(s)) (the “Call”) at a price equal to the Call Price if all of the Holder’s Equity Interest (issued or represented by this Warrant, including any successor Warrant(s)) are required to be sold pursuant to the Call, or, if only a portion of the Holder’s Equity Interest (issued or represented by this Warrant, including any successor Warrant(s)) is required to be sold pursuant to the Call, an amount equal to the percentage of the total Call Price corresponding to such portion (by way of example, if a 50% portion of the total of Holder’s Equity Interest (issued or represented by this Warrant, including any successor Warrant(s)) is required to be purchased pursuant to the Call, then the Company will pay 50% of the total Call Price for such portion of the Holder’s Equity Interest). A Call Notice may not be given if the Holder has previously provided the Company with a Put Notice.

(c) The rights of the Company pursuant to this Section 4.3 may be waived by the Company, notwithstanding delivery of a Call Notice, at any time on or prior to the tenth (10^th) Business Day after the determination of the Call Price.

(d) Within ten (10) Business Days following the delivery of a Call Notice (or, if applicable, immediately upon consummation of the Call Event if later), the Company shall purchase, and the Holder shall sell, the Equity Interest (issued or represented by this Warrant, including any successor Warrant(s)) specified in the Call Notice at the offices of the Company (the “Call Closing”).

(e) At the Call Closing, the Holder shall deliver to the Company the Warrant, if any, and the Company shall deliver to the Holder an amount equal to the Call Price corresponding to the Holder's Warrant and/or Equity Interest underlying same, by cashier's or certified check of a creditworthy financial institution payable to the Holder or by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the Holder.

Schedule 3.3.3

Calculations for Adjustment of Current Holder’s Equity Interest

Section 3.3.3(a):

If the audited Adjusted EBITDA of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the Fiscal Year ending December 31, 2018 equals $15,000,000, the Current Holder’s Equity Interest is increased by a percentage equal to:

($19,250,000 - $15,000,000) / $15,000,000 = 0.28333333

Therefore, the Current Holder’s Equity Interest equals 4,960,740 shares * 1.28333333 = 6,366,283 shares.

Put Price:

If the audited Adjusted EBITDA (or if unavailable, the reviewed Adjusted EBITDA) of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the twelve trailing months for the quarter-end immediately preceding the Put Closing equals $15,000,000, the Current Holder’s Equity Interest is deemed to increase by a percentage equal to:

($19,250,000 - $15,000,000) / $15,000,000 = 0.28333333

Therefore, the Current Holder’s Equity Interest is deemed to equal 4,960,740 shares * 1.28333333 = 6,366,283 shares.
