"In addition to the shares immediately exercisable under Section 1.1(a), this Warrant shall also be immediately exercisable for an additional
108,051 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (subject to adjustment as provided herein) (such shares, the "Additional Shares")."
(b) Section 1.6 of the Warrant is hereby amended by deleting the text "(including Shares deemed exercisable by virtue of the last sentence of Section 1.1(b))" from clause (a) of such Section.
3. Force and Effect. The Company reconfirms, restates, and ratifies the Warrant and all of the representations and warranties contained therein. Except as expressly provided for herein, the parties hereto do not intend to amend or otherwise alter any of the provisions of the Warrant.
