(b) Method of Exercise. The Holder hereof may exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, by delivery to the Company (or such other office or agency of the Issuer as it may designate by notice in writing to the Holder at the address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Issuers) of a duly executed facsimile copy of the Notice of Exercise Form annexed hereto (“Notice of Exercise Form”); and, within three (3) Trading Days of the date said Notice of Exercise Form is delivered to the Company, the Company shall have received payment of an amount of consideration therefor equal to the Warrant Price in effect on the date of such exercise multiplied by the number of shares of Warrant Stock with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised, payable at such Holder’s election by certified or official bank check or by wire transfer to an account designated by the Issuer. 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, or an indemnification reasonably acceptable to the Issuer undertaking with respect to such Warrant in the case of its loss, theft or destruction, to the Company for cancellation within three (3) Trading Days of the date the final Notice of Exercise Form 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. Subject to all rights of the Holder herein, the Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise Form within one (1) Business Day of receipt of such notice and such objection shall contain the reason for such objection along with documentation supporting the Company’s reason for objecting.

(c) Issuance of Stock Certificates. In the event of any exercise of this Warrant in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, certificates for the shares of Warrant Stock so purchased shall be dated the date of such exercise and delivered to the Holder’s Prime Broker as specified in the Holder’s exercise form within a reasonable time, not exceeding five (5) Trading Days after such exercise (the “Delivery Date”) or, at the request of the Holder (provided that a registration statement under the Securities Act providing for the resale of the Warrant Stock is then in effect or that the shares of Warrant Stock are otherwise exempt from registration), issued and delivered to the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) account on the Holder’s behalf via the Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission System (“DWAC”) within a reasonable time, not exceeding five (5) Trading Days after such exercise, and the Holder hereof shall be deemed for all purposes to be the holder of the shares of Warrant Stock so purchased as of the date of such exercise. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, the Issuer or its transfer agent shall only be obligated to issue and deliver the shares to the DTC on a holder’s behalf via DWAC if such exercise is in connection with sale in reliance upon an effective Registration Statement or other exemption from registration by which the shares may be issued without a restrictive legend and the Issuer and its transfer agent are participating in DTC through the DWAC system.
(d) Transferability of Warrant. Subject to Section 2(f) hereof, this Warrant may be transferred by a Holder, in whole or in part, without the consent of the Issuer. If transferred pursuant to this paragraph, this Warrant may be transferred on the books of the Issuer by the Holder upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Issuer or its designated agent, properly endorsed (by the Holder executing an assignment in the form attached hereto) and upon payment of any necessary transfer tax or other governmental charge imposed upon such transfer. This Warrant is exchangeable for Warrants to purchase the same aggregate number of shares of Warrant Stock, each new Warrant to represent the right to purchase such number of shares of Warrant Stock as the Holder hereof shall designate at the time of such exchange. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the Original Issue Date and shall be identical with this Warrant except as to the number of shares of Warrant Stock issuable pursuant thereto.
(e) Continuing Rights of Holder. The Issuer shall, at the time of or at any time after each exercise of this Warrant, upon the request of the Holder hereof, acknowledge in writing the extent, if any, of its continuing obligation to afford to such Holder all rights to which such Holder shall continue to be entitled after such exercise in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, provided that if any such Holder shall fail to make any such request, the failure shall not affect the continuing obligation of the Issuer to afford such rights to such Holder.
(f) Compliance with Securities Laws.
(i) The Holder of this Warrant, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges that this Warrant and the shares of Warrant Stock to be issued upon exercise hereof are being acquired solely for the Holder’s own account and not as a nominee for any other party, and for investment, and that the Holder will not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of this Warrant or any shares of Warrant Stock to be issued upon exercise hereof except pursuant to an effective registration statement, or an exemption from registration, under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws.
(ii) Except as provided in paragraph (iii) below, this Warrant and all certificates representing shares of Warrant Stock issued upon exercise hereof shall be stamped or imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:
THIS WARRANT AND THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE HEREOF HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF UNLESS REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR THE ISSUER SHALL HAVE RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER THAT REGISTRATION OF SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS IS NOT REQUIRED.
(iii) The Issuer agrees to reissue this Warrant or certificates representing any of the Warrant Stock, without the legend set forth above, if at such time, prior to making any transfer of any such securities, the Holder shall give written notice to the Issuer describing the manner and terms of such transfer and demonstrating that the following conditions are satisfied. Such proposed transfer will not be effected until: (a) either (i) the Issuer has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer, to the effect that the registration of such securities under the Securities Act is not required in connection with such proposed transfer, (ii) a registration statement under the Securities Act covering such proposed disposition has been filed by the Issuer with the Securities and Exchange Commission and has become and remains effective under the Securities Act, (iii) the Issuer has received other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer that such registration and qualification under the Securities Act and state securities laws are not required, or (iv) the holder provides the Issuer with reasonable assurances that such security can be sold pursuant to Rule 144(i) under the Securities Act, and (b) either (i) the Issuer has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer, to the effect that registration or qualification under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any state is not required in connection with such proposed disposition, or (ii) compliance with applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws has been effected or a valid exemption exists with respect thereto. The Issuer shall respond to any such notice from a holder within five (5) Trading Days. In the case of any proposed transfer under this Section 2(f), the Issuer shall use reasonable efforts to comply with any such applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws, but shall in no event be required, (x) to qualify to do business in any state where it is not then qualified, (y) to take any action that would subject it to tax or to the general service of process in any state where it is not then subject, or (z) to comply with state securities or “blue sky” laws of any state for which registration by coordination is unavailable to the Issuer. Whenever a certificate representing the Warrant Stock is required to be issued to the Holder without a legend, in lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Warrant Stock, the Issuer shall cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Warrant Stock to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder or Holder’s Prime Broker with DTC through its DWAC system (to the extent not inconsistent with any provisions of this Warrant or the Purchase Agreement).
(g) Accredited Investor Status. At the time of the exercise of this Warrant, the Holder (1) shall be an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act, or (2) exempt from registration under Regulation S.

3. Adjustment of Warrant Price. The Warrant Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 3. The Issuer shall give the Holder written notice of any event described below which requires an adjustment pursuant to this Section 3 in accordance with the notice provisions set forth in Section 11.
(a) Adjustments for Stock Splits, Combinations, Certain Dividends and Distributions. If the Issuer shall, at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date, effect a split of the outstanding Common Stock (or any other subdivision of its shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares of Common Stock), combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, or make or issue or set a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in shares of Common Stock, then, in each event (i) the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant shall be exercisable immediately after the occurrence of any such event shall be adjusted to equal the number of shares of Common Stock that a record holder of the same number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the occurrence of such event would own or be entitled to receive after the happening of such event, and (ii) the Warrant Price then in effect shall be adjusted to equal (A) the Warrant Price then in effect multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the adjustment divided by (B) the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after such adjustment.
(b) Adjustment for Other Dividends and Distributions. If the Issuer shall, at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date, make or issue or set a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in (i) cash, (ii) any evidences of indebtedness, or any other securities of the Company or any property of any nature whatsoever, other than, in each case, shares of Common Stock; or (iii) any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any evidences of indebtedness, or any other securities of the Company or any property of any nature whatsoever, other than, in each case, shares of Common Stock, then, and in each event, (A) the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant shall be exercisable shall be adjusted to equal the product of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such adjustment multiplied by a fraction (1) the numerator of which shall be the Per Share Market Value of Common Stock at the date of taking such record and (2) the denominator of which shall be such Per Share Market Value minus the amount allocable to one share of Common Stock of any such cash so distributable and of the fair value (as determined in good faith by the Board and supported by an opinion from an investment banking firm mutually agreed upon by the Issuer and the Holder) of any and all such evidences of indebtedness, shares of stock, other securities or property or warrants or other subscription or purchase rights so distributable, and (B) the Warrant Price then in effect shall be adjusted to equal (1) the Warrant Price then in effect multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the adjustment divided by (2) the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after such adjustment. A reclassification of the Common Stock (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value or from no par value to par value) into shares of Common Stock and shares of any other class of stock shall be deemed a distribution by the Issuer to the holders of its Common Stock of such shares of such other class of stock within the meaning of this Section 3(b) and, if the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be changed into a larger or smaller number of shares of Common Stock as a part of such reclassification, such change shall be deemed a subdivision or combination, as the case may be, of the outstanding shares of Common Stock within the meaning of Section 3(a).
(c) Adjustments for Reclassification, Exchange or Substitution. If the Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date shall be changed to the same or different number of shares of any class or classes of stock, whether by reclassification, exchange, substitution or otherwise (other than by way of a stock split or combination of shares or stock dividends provided for in Section 3(a), Section 3(b), or a reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale of assets provided for in Section 3(d)), then, and in each event, an appropriate revision to the Warrant Price shall be made and provisions shall be made (by adjustments of the Warrant Price or otherwise) so that, upon any subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, in lieu of Warrant Stock, the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities receivable upon reclassification, exchange, substitution or other change, by holders of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant was exercisable immediately prior to such reclassification, exchange, substitution or other change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.
(d) Adjustments for Reorganization, Merger, Consolidation or Sales of Assets. If at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date there shall be (i) a capital reorganization of the Issuer (other than by way of a stock split or combination of shares or stock dividends or distributions provided for in Section 3(a), and Section 3(b), or a reclassification, exchange or substitution of shares provided for in Section 3(c)), or (ii) a merger or consolidation of the Issuer with or into another corporation, where the holders of the Issuer’s outstanding voting securities prior to such merger or consolidation do not own over 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the merged or consolidated entity, immediately after such merger or consolidation, or (iii) the sale of all or substantially all of the Issuer’s properties or assets to any other person (an “Organic Change”), then, as a part of such Organic Change an appropriate revision to the Warrant Price shall be made if necessary and provision shall be made if necessary (by adjustments of the Warrant Price or otherwise) so that, upon any subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, in lieu of Warrant Stock, the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities or property of the Issuer or any successor corporation resulting from the Organic Change. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 3(d) with respect to the rights of the Holder after the Organic Change to the end that the provisions of this Section 3(d) (including any adjustment in the Warrant Price then in effect and the number of shares of stock or other securities deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall be applied after that event in as nearly an equivalent manner as may be practicable. In any such case, the resulting or surviving corporation (if not the Issuer) shall expressly assume the obligations to deliver, upon the exercise of this Warrant, such securities or property as the Holder shall be entitled to receive pursuant to the provisions hereof, and to make provisions for the protection of the rights of the Holder as provided above.
3
(e) Adjustments for Issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock. For so long as this Warrant remains outstanding (the “Anti-Dilution Period”), in the event the Company shall issue or sell any additional shares of Common Stock (otherwise than as provided in the foregoing subsections (a) through (d) of this Section 3) (“Additional Shares of Common Stock”) at a price per share less than the then-applicable Exercise Price or without consideration, then the Exercise Price upon each such issuance shall be reduced to that price (rounded to the nearest cent) determined by multiplying the Exercise Price by a fraction: (1) the numerator of which shall be equal to the sum of (A) the number of shares of Outstanding Common Stock, as hereinafter defined, immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Shares of Common Stock plus (B) the number of shares of Common Stock (rounded to the nearest whole share) which the aggregate consideration for the total number of such Additional Shares of Common Stock so issued would purchase at a price per share equal to the outstanding Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance; and (2) the denominator of which shall be equal to the number of shares of Outstanding Common Stock immediately after the issuance of such Additional Shares of Common Stock. No adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon the issuance of any Additional Shares of Common Stock which are issued pursuant to the exercise of any warrants or other subscription or purchase rights or pursuant to the exercise of any conversion or exchange rights in any Common Stock Equivalents, if any such adjustment shall previously have been made upon the issuance of such warrants or other rights or upon the issuance of such Common Stock Equivalents (or upon the issuance of any warrant or other rights therefore). For purposes of this Warrant, "Outstanding Common Stock" means, at any given time, the aggregate amount of outstanding shares of Common Stock, assuming full exercise, conversion or exchange (as applicable) of all Common Stock Equivalents that are outstanding at such time.
(f) Issuance of Common Stock Equivalents. If at any time during the Anti-Dilution Period, the Company or any subsidiary thereof, as applicable, 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 of) any Common Stock, preferred shares convertible into Common Stock, or debt, warrants, options or other instruments or securities which are convertible into or exercisable for shares of Common Stock (collectively, the “Common Stock Equivalents”) at a price per share less than the applicable Exercise Price then in effect, or if, after any such issuance of Common Stock Equivalents, the price per share for which Additional Shares of Common Stock may be issuable thereafter is amended or adjusted, and such price as so amended shall be less than the applicable Exercise Price in effect at the time of such amendment or adjustment, then the applicable Exercise Price upon each such issuance or amendment shall be adjusted as provided in Section 3(e). No adjustment shall be made to the Exercise Price upon the issuance of any Common Stock pursuant to the exercise, conversion or exchange of any Convertible Security or Common Stock Equivalent where an adjustment to the Conversion Price was made as a result of the issuance or purchase of such Convertible Security or Common Stock Equivalent.
(g) Exceptions to Adjustment. Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 3(e) and 3(f), no adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be effected as a result of an Excepted Issuance. “Excepted Issuances” shall mean, collectively, (i) the Company’s issuance of securities in connection with strategic license agreements and other partnering arrangements so long as such issuances are not for the purpose of raising capital and in which holders of such securities or debt are not at any time granted registration rights; (ii) the Company’s issuance of Common Stock or the issuances or grants of options to purchase Common Stock to employees, directors, and consultants,; (iii) securities issued (other than for cash) in connection with a merger, acquisition, or consolidation, (iv) securities issued pursuant to the conversion or exercise of convertible or exercisable securities issued or outstanding on or prior to the date of the Purchase Agreement, (v) any securities, including the Debenture, Warrants and Performance Warrants, as well as any shares of common stock issued as interest payment on the Debenture, issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (so long as the conversion or exercise price in such securities are not amended to lower such price and/or adversely affect the Holders), (v) the shares of Common Stock underlying the Debenture, the Warrants and the Performance Warrants, (vi) any shares of Common Stock issued as payment of dividends, (vii) any warrants issued to the Placement Agent or the shares of common stock underlying same, and (viii) shares issued pursuant to a Permitted Financing.
(h) 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 shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.
(i) Record Date. In case the Issuer shall take record of the holders of its Common Stock or any other preferred stock for the purpose of entitling them to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for, directly or indirectly, Common Stock, then the date of the issue or sale of the shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to be such record date.
(j) No Impairment. The Issuer shall not, by amendment of 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 to be observed or performed hereunder, but shall at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Section 3 and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect against impairment the right of the Holder to exercise this Warrant. In the event the Holder shall elect to exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, as provided herein, the Issuer cannot refuse exercise based on any claim that the Holder or anyone associated or affiliated with such holder has been engaged in any violation of law, unless (i) the Issuer receives an order from the Securities and Exchange Commission prohibiting such exercise or (ii) an injunction from a court, on notice, restraining and/or adjoining exercise of this Warrant.
(k) Certificates as to Adjustments. Upon occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Warrant Price or number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable pursuant to this Section 3, the Issuer at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to the Holder a certificate setting forth such adjustment and readjustment, showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Issuer shall, upon written request of the Holder, at any time, furnish or cause to be furnished to the Holder a like certificate setting forth such adjustments and readjustments, the Warrant Price in effect at the time, and the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other securities or property which at the time would be received upon the exercise of this Warrant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer shall not be obligated to deliver a certificate unless such certificate would reflect an increase or decrease of at least one percent of such adjusted amount; if the Issuer so postpones delivering a certificate, such prior adjustment shall be carried forward and made as soon as such adjustment, together with other adjustments required by this Section 3 and not previously made, would result in an adjustment of one percent or more.
4
(l) Issue Taxes. The Issuer shall pay any and all issue and other taxes, excluding federal, state or local income taxes, that may be payable in respect of any issue or delivery of shares of Common Stock on exercise of this Warrant; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be obligated to pay any transfer taxes resulting from any transfer requested by any holder in connection with any such conversion.
(m) Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon exercise of this Warrant. In lieu of any fractional shares to which the Holder would otherwise be entitled, the Holder shall round the number of shares to be issued upon exercise up to the nearest whole number of shares.
(n) Reservation of Common Stock. The Issuer shall, during the period within which this Warrant may be exercised, reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the exercise of this Warrant, such number of shares of Common Stock equal to at least one hundred ten percent (110%) of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the exercise of this Warrant.
(o) Retirement of this Warrant. Exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been effected on the date of exercise hereof. Upon exercise of this Warrant only in part, the Issuer shall issue and deliver to the Holder, at the expense of the Issuer, a new Warrant covering the unexercised balance of the Warrant Stock.
(p) Regulatory Compliance. If any shares of Common Stock to be reserved for the purpose of exercise of this Warrant require registration or listing with or approval of any governmental authority, stock exchange or other regulatory body under any federal or state law or regulation or otherwise before such shares may be validly issued or delivered upon conversion, the Issuer shall, at its sole cost and expense, in good faith and as expeditiously as possible, endeavor to secure such registration, listing or approval, as the case may be.
4. No Preemptive Rights. The Holder shall not be entitled to rights to subscribe for, purchase or receive any part of any new or additional shares of any class, whether now or hereinafter authorized, or of bonds or debentures, or other evidences of indebtedness convertible into or exchangeable for shares of any class, but all such new or additional shares of any class, or any bond, debentures or other evidences of indebtedness convertible into or exchangeable for shares, may be issued and disposed of by the Board on such terms and for such consideration (to the extent permitted by law), and to such person or persons as the Board in its absolute discretion may deem advisable.
5. Intentionally Left Blank
6. Exchange Cap.
(a) Exercise Limit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Warrant, the Company shall not be obligated to issue any shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant, and the holder of this Warrant shall not have the right to receive, upon such exercise, any shares of Common Stock, if the issuance of such shares of Common Stock would exceed the aggregate number of Shares of Common Stock which the Company may issue upon exercise or conversion, as applicable, of this Warrant, the other Warrants issuable pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Debentures, any interest payments payable pursuant to the Debentures, or any Performance Warrants, to remain in compliance with the Company's obligations under the rules or regulations of the Nasdaq OMX Market, which rules and regulations limit the amount of shares of Common Stock that the Company may issue to no more than an aggregate of 19.99% of the number of shares outstanding on the Closing Date (the "Exchange Cap"), except that such limitation shall not apply in the event that the Company (A) obtains the approval of its stockholders as required by the applicable rules of NASDAQ for issuances of Common Stock in excess of such amount or (B) obtains a written opinion from outside counsel to the Company that such approval is not required, which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to majority stockholders. Until such approval or written opinion is obtained, no Purchaser shall be issued in the aggregate, upon exercise or conversion, as applicable, of this Warrant, the Debenture, the Class C Warrant or the Performance Warrant, if any, shares of Common Stock in an amount greater than the product of the Exchange Cap multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Purchase Price paid by such Purchaser pursuant to the Purchase Agreement on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the aggregate offering amount pursuant to the Purchase Agreement on the Closing Date (with respect to each Purchaser, the "Exchange Cap Allocation"). In the event that any Purchaser shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such Purchaser's Warrant, the transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such Purchaser's Exchange Cap Allocation, and the restrictions of the prior sentence shall apply to such transferee with respect to the portion of the Exchange Cap Allocation allocated to such transferee. In the event that any holder of this Warrant shall exercise all of such holder's Warrant into a number of shares of Common Stock which, in the aggregate, is less than such holder's Exchange Cap Allocation, then the difference between such holder's Exchange Cap Allocation and the number of shares of Common Stock actually issued to such holder shall be allocated to the respective Exchange Cap Allocations of the remaining holders of this Warrant on a pro rata basis in proportion to the aggregate exercise price of shares of this Warrant then held by each such holder.
(b) Failed Exercise. In the event that the Holder exercises this Warrant in whole or in part pursuant to any provision of Section 2 hereof, and the Company is unable or otherwise fails to deliver all or part of the Warrant Shares (a “Failed Exercise”) due to limitations imposed on the Company by virtue of the NASDAQ Rule 5635 (the “Rule 5365 Limitations”), then the Company shall be obligated to (i) promptly, but in no event later than one hundred twenty (120) days from such Failed Exercise, obtain the required stockholder approval to remove the Rule 5635 Limitations, and (ii) on the first date that such Rule 5635 Limitations no longer apply, deliver to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares required by the Failed Exercise (without regard to the Rule 5635 Limitations); provided, however, that the Holder may elect to retract the Failed Exercise at any time prior to the delivery of the Warrant Shares, whereupon the Holder shall retain all rights under this Warrant as if the Failed Exercise had never occurred. If such approval is required, the Company shall not be obligated to issue any Shares until such approval is received

9. Amendment and Waiver.

No consideration shall be offered or paid to any person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of this Warrant unless the same consideration is also offered to all holders of the Warrants.
10. Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any of the conflicts of law principles which would result in the application of the substantive law of another jurisdiction. This Warrant shall not be interpreted or construed with any presumption against the party causing this Warrant to be drafted.

Nothing in this Section 10 shall affect or limit any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. The Issuer and the Holder hereby agree that the prevailing party in any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Warrant or the Purchase Agreement, shall be entitled to reimbursement for reasonable legal fees from the non-prevailing party. The parties hereby waive all rights to a trial by jury.
11. Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be given in the same manner provided in the subsection headed “Notices” in the Purchase Agreement, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.
Any party hereto may from time to time change its address for notices by giving written notice of such changed address to the other party hereto.
12. Warrant Agent. The Issuer may, by written notice to each Holder of this Warrant, appoint an agent having an office in New York, New York for the purpose of issuing shares of Warrant Stock on the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to subsection (b) of Section 2 hereof, exchanging this Warrant pursuant to subsection (d) of Section 2 hereof or replacing this Warrant pursuant to Section 13 hereof, or any of the foregoing, and thereafter any such issuance, exchange or replacement, as the case may be, shall be made at such office by such agent.
13. Lost or Stolen Warrant. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of any indemnification undertaking by the Holder to the Company and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company shall execute and deliver new Warrant of like tenor and date; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to re-issue warrant(s) if the Holder contemporaneously exercise this Warrant to purchase shares of Common Stock.
14. Remedies, Characterizations, Other Obligations, Breaches and Injunctive Relief. The remedies provided in this Warrant shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Warrant, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), no remedy contained herein shall be deemed a waiver of compliance with the provisions giving rise to such remedy and nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue actual damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Warrant. Amounts set forth or provided for herein with respect to payments, conversion and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by the Holder thereof and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any other obligation of the Company (or the performance thereof). The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Company therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.
15. Specific Shall Not Limit General; Construction. No specific provision contained in this Warrant shall limit or modify any more general provision contained herein.

17. Modification and Severability. If, in any action before any court or agency legally empowered to enforce any provision contained herein, any provision hereof is found to be unenforceable, then such provision shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to make it enforceable by such court or agency. If any such provision is not enforceable as set forth in the preceding sentence, the unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the other provisions of this Warrant, but this Warrant shall be construed as if such unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.
18. Headings. The headings of the Sections of this Warrant are for convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant.
