receive dividends or subscription rights or otherwise until this Warrant shall have been exercised and the shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise hereof shall have become deliverable, as provided herein.

|
Adjustments.
|
| 7.1. |
Subdivisions of the Common Stock. If after the date hereof the Company shall subdivide the Common Stock, by split-up or otherwise, or combine the Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on the exercise of this Warrant shall forthwith be

increased in the case of a combination.
|
| 7.2. |
Stock Dividends. If and
whenever at any time the Company shall declare a dividend or make any other distribution upon any class or series of stock of the Company payable in shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on the exercise of
this Warrant shall forthwith be proportionately increased, and the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such dividend or distribution shall be proportionately decreased, as if such dividend or distribution had been made by way of
a subdivision pursuant to Section 7.1 above.
|
| 7.3. |
Adjustments for Other Dividends and Distributions. In the event the Company shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in securities of the
Company (other than shares of Common Stock) or in cash or other property (other than cash out of earnings or earned surplus, determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles), then and in each such event provision
shall be made so that the Holder of this Warrant shall receive upon exercise hereof, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder, the kind and amount of securities of the Company and/or cash and other property
which the Holder would have been entitled to receive had this Warrant been exercised into shares of Common Stock on the date of such event and had the Holder thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the
exercise date, retained any such securities receivable, giving application to all adjustments called for during such period under this Section 7 with respect to the rights of the Holder.
|

|
7.4.
|
Adjustments for Certain Issuances Below Purchase Price.
|
|
7.4.1.
|
Issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock. If at any time the Company (except as hereinafter provided) issues or sells any Additional Shares of Common Stock, in exchange for consideration in an amount per Additional
Shares of Common Stock less than the Purchase Price at the time the Additional Shares of Common Stock are issued, then the Purchase Price for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be reduced to a price equal to the price obtained by
multiplying (i) the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Shares of Common Stock by (ii) a fraction of which (x) the numerator equals the sum of (A) the number of shares of Common Stock
immediately prior to such issue or sale, determined on a fully-diluted basis and (B) the number of Additional Shares of Common Stock that the aggregate consideration received by the Company upon such issue or sale would purchase at
the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance and (y) the denominator equals the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such issue or sale.
|
| 7.4.2. |
Issuance of Warrants or Other Rights. If at any time the Company shall take a record of its stockholders for the purpose of entitling them to receive a distribution of, or shall in any manner (whether directly or by assumption in a merger where the
Company is the surviving corporation) issue or sell, any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any Additional Shares of Common Stock or any Convertible Securities, whether or not the rights to exchange or convert
thereunder are immediately exercisable, and the price per shares of Common Stock for which shares of Common Stock are issuable upon the exercise of such warrants or other rights or upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible
Securities shall be less than the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to the time of such issue or sale, then the Purchase Price shall be adjusted as provided in Section 7.4.1 on the basis that the maximum number of Additional
Shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to all such warrants or other rights or necessary to effect the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities shall be deemed to have been issued and outstanding and the Company shall
have received all of the consideration payable therefor, if any, as of the date of the actual issuance of such warrants or other rights. No further adjustments of the Purchase Price shall be made upon the actual issue of such shares of
Common Stock or of such Convertible Securities upon exercise of such warrants or other rights or upon the actual issue of such shares of Common Stock upon such conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.
|
| 7.4.3. |
Issuance of Convertible Securities. If at any time the Company shall take a record of its stockholders for the purpose of entitling them to receive a distribution of, or shall in any manner (whether directly or by assumption in a merger where the Company is the
surviving corporation) issue or sell, any Convertible Securities, whether or not the rights to exchange or convert thereunder are immediately exercisable, and the price per shares of Common Stock for which shares of Common Stock are
issuable upon such conversion or exchange shall be less than the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to the time of such issue or sale, then the Purchase Price shall be adjusted as provided in Section 7.4.1 on the basis that the
maximum number of Additional Shares of Common Stock necessary to effect the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities shall be deemed to have been issued and outstanding and the Company shall have received all of the
consideration payable therefor, if any, as of the date of actual issuance of such Convertible Securities. No further adjustments of the Purchase Price shall be made upon the actual issue of such shares of Common Stock upon conversion or
exchange of such Convertible Securities and, if any issue or sale of such Convertible Securities is made upon exercise of any warrant or other right to subscribe for or to purchase any such Convertible Securities for which the Purchase
Price has been or is to be made pursuant to other provisions of this Section 7.4, no further adjustments of the Purchase Price shall be made by reason of such issue or sale.
|
6
| 7.4.4. |
Superseding Adjustment.
If, at any time after any adjustment of the Purchase Price has been made pursuant to Section 7.4.2 or 7.4.3 as the result of any issuance of warrants, rights or Convertible Securities:
|
|
7.4.4.1.
|
such warrants or rights, or the right of conversion or exchange in such other Convertible Securities, shall expire, and all or a portion of such warrants or rights, or the right of conversion or exchange with respect to all or a
portion of such other Convertible Securities, as the case may be, shall not have been exercised, or
|
| 7.4.4.2. |
the consideration per shares of Common Stock for which shares of Common Stock are issuable pursuant to such warrants or rights, or the terms of such other Convertible Securities, shall be increased solely by virtue of provisions therein
contained for an automatic increase in such consideration per shares of Common Stock upon the occurrence of a specified date or event,
|
then for each outstanding warrant, right or Convertible Securities such previous adjustments shall be rescinded and annulled and the Additional Shares of Common Stock that were deemed to have been
issued by virtue of the computation made in connection with the adjustment so rescinded and annulled shall no longer be deemed to have been issued by virtue of such computation. Thereupon, a recomputation shall be made of the effect of such rights
or options or other Convertible Securities on the basis of:
|
7.4.4.2.1.
|
treating the number of Additional Shares of Common Stock or other property, if any, theretofore actually issued or issuable pursuant to the previous exercise of any such warrants or rights or any such right of conversion or
exchange, as having been issued on the date or dates of any such exercise and for the consideration actually received and receivable therefor, and
|
7
| 7.4.4.2.2. |
treating any such warrants or rights or any such other Convertible Securities that then remain outstanding as having been granted or issued immediately after the time of such increase of the consideration per shares of Common Stock for
which shares of Common Stock or other property are issuable under such warrants or rights or other Convertible Securities, whereupon a new adjustment of the Purchase Price shall be made, which new adjustment shall supersede the previous
adjustment so rescinded and annulled.
|
| 7.4.5. |
Other Provisions Applicable to Adjustments under This Section. Without prejudice to any other provision of this Section 7.4, the following provisions shall also apply to adjustments to the Purchase Price:
|
| 7.4.5.1. |
Computation of Consideration. To the extent that any Additional Shares of Common Stock or any Convertible Securities or any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any Additional Shares of Common Stock or any Convertible
Securities are issued for cash consideration, the consideration received by the Company therefor shall be the amount of the cash received by the Company therefor, or, if such Additional Shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities are
offered by the Company for subscription, the subscription price, or, if such Additional Shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities are sold to underwriters or dealers for public offering without a subscription offering, the initial
public offering price (in any such case subtracting any amounts paid or receivable for accrued interest or accrued distributions and without taking into account any compensation, discounts or expenses paid or incurred by the Company for
and in the underwriting of, or otherwise in connection with, the issuance thereof). To the extent that such issuance is for a consideration other than cash, then the amount of such consideration shall be deemed to be the fair market
value of such consideration at the time of such issuance as determined in good faith by unanimous action of the Board. In the case that any Additional Shares of Common Stock or any Convertible Securities or any warrants or other rights
to subscribe for or purchase such Additional Shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities shall be issued in connection with any merger where the Company issues any securities, the amount of consideration therefor shall be deemed to
be the fair market value, as determined in good faith by unanimous action of the Board. The consideration for any Additional Shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase the same
shall be the consideration received by the Company for issuing such warrants or other rights plus the additional consideration payable to the Company upon exercise of such warrants or other rights. The consideration for any Additional
Shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms of any Convertible Securities shall be the consideration received by the Company for issuing warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase such Convertible Securities, plus the
consideration paid or payable to the Company in respect of the subscription for or purchase of such Convertible Securities, plus the additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the exercise of the right of conversion or
exchange in such Convertible Securities. If any Additional Shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities are issued at any time in payment or satisfaction of any distributions upon any class of stock other than shares of Common Stock,
the Company shall be deemed to have received for such Additional Shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities a consideration equal to the amount of such distribution so paid or satisfied.
|
8
| 7.4.5.2. |
When Adjustments Shall Be Made. The adjustments required by this Section 7.4 shall be made whenever and as often as any specified event requiring an adjustment shall occur. For the purpose of any adjustment, any specified event shall be
deemed to have occurred at the close of business on the date of its occurrence.
|
| 7.4.5.3. |
When Adjustment Not Required. If the Company takes a record of its stockholders for the purpose of entitling them to receive a distribution or subscription or purchase rights and, thereafter and before the distribution to holders
thereof, legally abandons its plan to pay or deliver such distribution, subscription or purchase rights, then thereafter no adjustment shall be required by reason of the taking of such record and any such adjustment previously made in
respect thereof shall be rescinded and annulled.
|
| 8. |
Reorganizations. If after
the date hereof the Company shall enter into any Reorganization (as hereinafter defined), then, as a condition of such Reorganization, lawful provisions shall be made so that the Holder shall thereafter have the right to purchase, at a
total price not to exceed that payable upon the exercise of this Warrant in full, the kind and amount of shares of Common Stock and other securities and property receivable upon such Reorganization by a holder of the number of shares of
Common Stock which might have been purchased by the Holder immediately prior to such Reorganization. In the event that an offer is made to purchase all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or all or substantially all of the assets
of the Company, or the Company proposes to amalgamate or merge with another company, the Company shall have the right to require that in connection with, and subject to, the closing of any such transaction, the Holder shall accept in full
substitution for this Warrant, an equivalent warrant of the successor or purchasing company, in which case this Warrant shall be canceled upon the issuance of such substituted warrant to the Holder. In any such case, appropriate
adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions set forth herein with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Holder, to the end that the provisions set forth in this Section 8 (including provisions with
respect to changes in and other adjustments of the Purchase Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to any securities, cash or other interests thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of this
Warrant. For the purposes of this Section 8, the term “Reorganization” shall include without limitation any reclassification, capital reorganization or change of the shares of Common Stock (other than as a result of a subdivision,
combination or shares of Common Stock dividend provided for in Section 7 hereof), or any consolidation of the Company with, or merger of the Company into, another corporation or other business organization (other than a merger in which
the Company is the surviving entity and which does not result in any reclassification or change of the outstanding shares of Common Stock), or any sale or conveyance to another corporation or other business organization of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company.
|
9
| 9. |
Certificate of Adjustment.
Whenever the Purchase Price (or the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on the exercise of this Warrant) is adjusted and the Holder so requests, as herein provided, the Company shall promptly deliver to the Holder a certificate of
the Company’s chief executive officer or other responsible officer setting forth the Purchase Price (and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on the exercise of this Warrant) after such adjustment and setting forth a brief
statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.
|
| 10. |
Notices of Record Date, Etc. In the event of:
|
| 10.1. |
any taking by the Company of a record of the holders of the shares of Common Stock for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend or other distribution, or any right to subscribe for,
purchase, sell or otherwise acquire or dispose of any shares of Common Stock or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right;
|
| 10.2. |
any reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, capital reorganization of the Company, or any consolidation of the Company with, or merger of the Company into, another corporation or other business organization (other than a
merger in which the Company is the surviving entity and which does not result in any reclassification or change of the outstanding shares of Common Stock), or any sale or conveyance to another corporation or other business organization of
all or substantially all of the assets of the Company;
|
| 10.3. |
any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company; or
|
| 10.4. |
the occurrence or anticipated occurrence of a Liquidity Event;
|
then in each such event the Company will provide or cause to be provided to the Holder a written notice thereof. Such notice shall be provided at least ten (10) calendar days prior to the date specified in such
notice on which any such action is to be taken.
10
| 11. |
Exchange of Warrant. This
Warrant is exchangeable upon the surrender hereof by the Holder hereof at the principal office of the Company, for new Warrants of like tenor representing in the aggregate the rights to subscribe for and purchase the number of shares of
Common Stock which may be subscribed for and purchased hereunder, each of such new Warrants to represent the right to subscribe for and purchase such number of shares of Common Stock as shall be designated by said Holder or Holders hereof
at the time of such surrender.
|
| 12. |
Lost, Stolen, Mutilated or Destroyed Warrant. If this Warrant is lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed, the Company may, on such terms as to indemnity or otherwise as it may in its reasonable discretion impose (which shall, in the case of a mutilated Warrant,
include the surrender thereof), issue a new Warrant of like denomination and tenor as this Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed.
|
| 13. |
No Impairment. The
Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or through any reclassification, capital reorganization, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance of assets, dissolution, liquidation, issue or sale of securities or any
other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance of 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 action as may
be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder.

transfer, give, bequeath, devise, donate or otherwise dispose of, or pledge, deposit or otherwise encumber (collectively “Transfer”) this Warrant or any part hereof provided that the Holder shall have first complied with each of the
following: (1) the proposed transferee is an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act; (2) the Holder provides evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company that the Transfer complies with applicable
federal and state securities laws; (3) the proposed transferee agrees to be bound by all the terms and provisions of this Warrant; and (4) the Holder and the proposed transferee execute and deliver such customary documents and
instruments, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company, as the Company may reasonably deem necessary, appropriate or advisable. The Company shall be given written notice of any Transfer no less than ten (10) business days prior to
the consummation of such Transfer, and no Transfer will be consummated or be valid until the Company confirms in writing that the Transfer complies with items (1) through (5) above, which confirmation the Company shall not unreasonably
withhold.
|
| 17. |
Payment of Taxes. The
Company will pay all documentary stamp taxes attributable to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this 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 registration of any shares of Common Stock in a name other than that of the Holder. The Holder is responsible for all other tax liability that may arise as a result of holding or transferring this Warrant or
receiving shares of Common Stock upon exercise hereof.

| 18. |
“Market Stand-Off” Agreement. The Holder hereby agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of the managing underwriter, during the period commencing on the date of the final prospectus relating to the registration by the Company of shares of
its Common Stock or any other equity securities of the Company under the Securities Act on a registration statement on Form S-1 in connection with any public offering of the Company’s securities and ending on the date specified by the
Company and the managing underwriter (such period not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days), (i) lend, offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase; purchase any option or contract to sell; grant any
option, right, or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable (directly or indirectly) for Common Stock
(held immediately prior to the effectiveness of the registration statement for such offering) or (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership
of such securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or other securities, in cash, or otherwise. The foregoing provisions of this Section 18 shall not apply
to the sale of any shares to an underwriter pursuant to an underwriting agreement, and shall only be applicable to the Holder if all officers, directors and holders of more than one percent (1%) of the outstanding Common Stock (after
giving effect to the conversion into Common Stock of all outstanding Preferred Stock) enter into similar agreements. Holder further agrees to execute such agreements as may be reasonably requested by the underwriters in the public
offering that are consistent with this Section 18 or that are necessary to give further effect thereto. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the shares of Common Stock (or other securities) subject to the
foregoing restriction until the end of said one hundred eighty (180) day period. The Holder agrees that a legend regarding the foregoing shall be placed on any certificates representing any shares of Common Stock acquired by the Holder
pursuant to this Warrant.

Counterparts. This
Warrant may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall
constitute but one and the same Warrant. This Warrant may be in the form of an Electronic Record and may be executed using Electronic Signatures (including, without limitation, facsimile and .pdf) and shall be considered an original, and
