2.1 Reclassification. In case of any reclassification or change of outstanding securities of the class issuable upon exercise of this Warrant then, and in any such case, the Holder, upon the exercise hereof at any time after the consummation of such reclassification or change, shall be entitled to receive in lieu of each Share theretofore issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities, money and/or property received upon such reclassification or change by a holder of one Share. The provisions of this Section 2.1 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications or changes.
2.2 Subdivision or Combination of Shares. If the Company at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired shall subdivide or combine its Shares, the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased in the case of a subdivision or increased in the case of a combination.
2.3 Stock Dividends. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding shall pay a dividend with respect to its Shares payable in Shares, or make any other distribution of Shares with respect to Shares (except any distribution specifically provided for in Section 2.1 and Section 2.2 above), then the Exercise Price shall be adjusted, effective from and after the date of determination of shareholders entitled to received such dividend or distribution, to that price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such date of determination by a fraction, (a) the numerator of which shall be the total number of Shares outstanding immediately prior to such dividend or distribution, and (b) the denominator of which shall be the total number of Shares outstanding immediately after such dividend or distribution.
2.4 Non-Cash Dividends.

2.5 Effect of Reorganization and Asset Sales. If any (i) reorganization or reclassification of the Common Stock (ii) consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation, or (iii) sale or all or substantially all of the Company’s operating assets to another corporation followed by a liquidation of the Company (any such transaction shall be followed by a liquidation of the Company (any such transaction shall be referred to herein as an “Event”, is effected in such a way that holders of common Stock are of Common Stock are entitled to receive securities and/or assets as a result of their Common Stock ownership, the Holder, upon exercise of this Warrant, shall be entitled to receive such shares of stock securities or assets which the Holder would have received had it fully exercised this Warrant on or prior the record date for such Event. The Company shall not merge into or consolidate with another corporation or sell all of its assets to another corporation for a consideration consisting primarily of securities or such corporation, unless the successor or acquiring corporation, as the case may be, shall expressly assume the due and punctual observance and performance of each and every covenant and condition of this Warrant to be performed or observed by the Company and all of the obligations and liabilities hereunder, subject to such modification as shall be necessary to provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 2. The foregoing provisions shall similarly apply to successive mergers, consolidations or sales of assets.
2.6 Adjustment of Number of Shares Upon each adjustment in the Exercise Price, the number of Shares shall be adjusted, to the nearest whole share, to the product obtained by multiplying the number of Shares, purchasable immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which shall be the Exercise Price immediately thereafter.
2.7 No Impairment. The Company shall not, by amendment of its articles of incorporation or through a 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 under this Warrant by the Company, but shall at all times in good faith assist in carrying out all of the provisions of this Warrant and in taking all such action as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to protect Holder’s rights hereunder against impairment. If the Company takes any action affecting its Common Stock other than as described above that adversely affects Holder’s rights under this Warrant, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted downward and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted upward in such a manner that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant is unchanged.
