Each such loan shall mature and all unpaid principal and accrued interest shall be due in full two (2) years following the date of the applicable Additional Advance. Each Additional Advance shall be evidenced by a separate promissory note in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. If Investor does not make a particular Additional Advance on the date specified above, Players shall provide Investor with written notice and Investor shall have thirty (30) days from receipt of such notice within which to make such Additional Advance.

2. Warrants.
A. Issuance for Advances. As additional consideration for each Advance made by Investor, Players shall issue Investor warrants (each, an “Initial Warrant” and collectively, the “Initial Warrants”) to acquire shares Common Stock in the amount specified next to the amount of the Advance on Exhibit B-1 to this Agreement (reflected as A Warrants, B Warrants and C Warrants). Each Initial Warrant shall have the exercise price specified next to the applicable Initial Warrant on Exhibit B-1. The Initial Warrants shall vest and become exercisable four (4) months following the date of issuance thereof (the “Vesting Date”) and shall remain exercisable for two (2) years following the Vesting Date (the “Exercise Period”). For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein: (i) if Investor elects not to make an Advance pursuant to the schedule specified above (and after expiration of the notice and cure period specified in Section 1(B) above), then no Initial Warrants shall be issued in respect of such Advance; and (ii) the election by Investor not to make a particular Advance shall have no impact whatsoever on the rights of Investor to make future Advances (if any) or receive Initial Warrants in connection with such future Advances. No later than ten (10) days following the execution hereof, Players shall issue Investor the Initial Warrants in respect of the Initial Advance. The form of Initial Warrant is attached hereto as Exhibit C. For the purposes of this Agreement, the term “Common Stock” means: (i) the class of stock designated as the common stock of Players at the Effective Date; or (ii) any other class of stock resulting from successive changes or reclassifications of such shares consisting solely of changes in par value, or from no par value to par value, or from par value to no par value.
B. Issuance for Additional Advances. As additional consideration for each Additional Advance made by Investor, Players shall issue Investor additional warrants (each, an “Additional Warrant” and collectively, the “Additional Warrants” and together with the Initial Warrants, the “Warrants”) to acquire Common Stock in the amount specified next to the amount of the Additional Advance on Exhibit B-2 to this Agreement. Each Additional Warrant shall have an exercise price (the “Additional Warrant Exercise Price”) equal to One Hundred Twenty Five Percent (125%) of the average “Closing Price” (i.e., the final price at which a share of Players’ Common Stock traded on the applicable trading day) for Players’ Common Stock over the thirty (30) trading days immediately preceding the date of the applicable Additional Advance (the “Pre-Advance Closing Average”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if during the ninety (90) trading day period immediately following the date of the Additional Advance, the average Closing Price for Players’ Common Stock is equal to or less than Eighty Percent (80%) of the Pre-Advance Closing Average (the “Post-Advance Closing Average”), then the Additional Warrant Exercise Price shall be equal to One Hundred Twenty Five Percent (125%) of the Post-Advance Closing Average. The form of Additional Warrant is attached as Exhibit D.

B. Warrant Acceleration Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Closing Price for Players’ stock on each of the thirty (30) trading days preceding the Vesting Date of any Warrants issued hereunder (the “Pre-Vesting Pricing Period”) is equal to or in excess of two hundred percent (200%) over the strike price (i.e., three hundred percent (300%) of the strike price or more) of such Warrant, then Players shall have the right, by delivery of written notice (during the ten (10) Business Days immediately following the close of the Vesting Period) to Investor (the “Warrant Notice”), to reduce the length of the Exercise Period with respect to such Warrants to the forty five (45) day period (or if later until the first Business Day following such forty five (45) day period) following Investor’s receipt of such Warrant Notice (the “Reduced Exercise Period”). If Investor elects not to exercise any portion of such Warrants during such Reduced Exercise Period, any such unexercised Warrants shall lapse and be of no further effect. For the avoidance of doubt, if Players has the right to and elects not to provide or does not timely provide the Warrant Notice to Investor, the Exercise Period of such Warrants shall remain two (2) years. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Business Day” means any day other than Saturday or Sunday during which banks are open for business in Southeast Michigan. The following examples illustrate the provisions of this Section 2(B).
EXAMPLE 1: Assume that March 2, 2017 is the Vesting Date for Four Million One Hundred Sixty-Six Thousand Six Hundred Sixty-Six (4,166,666) Warrants with an exercise price of three cents ($0.03) per share. Assume further that on each day during the Pre-Vesting Period, the Closing Price for the Players’ stock is eleven cents per share ($0.11) per share (i.e., more than two hundred percent (200%) over, or three hundred percent (300%) of the Warrant exercise price). In that case, assuming Players provides Investor with a Warrant Notice on March 14, 2017 (i.e., during the ten (10) Business Days immediately following Vesting Date), Investor would have until April 24 (i.e., the first Business Day following the close of the Reduced Exercise Period) to exercise some or all of those Warrants that vested on the Vesting Date. Assuming that Investor elected not to exercise any of those Warrants during the Reduced Exercise Period, such Warrants would lapse and would no longer be exercisable upon the close of the Reduced Exercise Period.
EXAMPLE 2: Assume the same facts as in Example 1. Assume however, that the Closing Price for the Players stock dips to eight cents ($0.08) per share on three (3) days during the Pre-Vesting Pricing Period. In that case, since on each day during the Pre-Vesting Pricing Period, the Closing Price for the Players’ stock did not equal or exceed two hundred percent (200%) over the Three Cents ($0.03) per share exercise price for the Warrants (i.e., such Closing Price did not equal or exceed nine cents ($0.09) per share), Players would not have the right to reduce the Exercise Period and the Exercise Period with respect to such Warrants would remain two (2) years.
C. Exercise of Warrants. Once vested and exercisable, Investor shall have the right, from time to time during the Exercise Period or the Reduced Exercise Period (as applicable), to exercise all or any portion of the Warrants and pay the exercise price by any one or combination of the following means: (i) in cash; (ii) in previously owned whole shares of Players stock (for which Investor has good title, free and clear of all liens, claims and/or encumbrances of any kind (each, a “Lien”)); (iii) by authorizing Players to retain whole shares, which would otherwise be issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, having a fair market value (at the average high and low trading prices on the date of exercise) equal to the exercise price for such Warrants; and/or (iv) by applying to the exercise price that portion of the principal and interest accrued and unpaid in respect of one or more Advances equal to the exercise price for such Warrants.
D. Shares Issued on Warrant Exercise. All Common Stock to be issued upon exercise of the Warrants shall be the subject to Rule 144 (17 CFR 230.144, “Rule 144”) and/or a valid registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to be declared effective by the SEC within sixty (60) days of the issuance of the underlying Investor Shares (as defined below) so that such Investor Shares will be salable in open market transactions by Investor as soon as practicable after they are issued by Players.
