(i)            the surrender of this Warrant, together with a duly executed copy of the Exercise Notice attached hereto, to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company at its principal office (or at such other place as the Company shall notify the Holder in writing) specifying the number of Shares to be purchased; and

 

(ii)           the payment to the Company of an amount equal to the aggregate Exercise Price for the number of Shares being purchased in accordance with Section 5 below.

 

(b)         Each exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the day on which this Warrant is surrendered to the Company as provided in Section 4(a) above. At such time, the person or persons in whose name or names any certificate for the Shares shall be issuable upon such exercise as provided in Section 4(c) below shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of the Shares represented by such certificate.

 

(c)         As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in whole or in part, and in any event within twenty (20) days thereafter, the Company at its expense will cause to be issued in the name of, and delivered to, the Holder, or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct:

 

(i)            a certificate or certificates for the number of Shares to which such Holder shall be entitled, and

 

   

 

 

(ii)           in case such exercise is in part only, a new warrant or warrants (dated the date hereof) of like tenor, calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of Shares equal to the number of such Shares described in this Warrant minus the number of such Shares purchased by the Holder upon all exercises made in accordance with Section 4(a) above or Section 5 below.

 

5.            Payment of the Exercise Price.

 

(a)          Payment to the Company of an amount equal to the aggregate Exercise Price for the number of Shares being purchased shall be made, at the option of the Holder, by:

 

(i)           delivery to the Company of a certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company or by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Company, in the amount of such aggregate Exercise Price,

 

(ii)           instruction to the Company to issue shares then issuable upon exercise of all or any part of this Warrant on a net basis such that, without payment of any cash consideration or other immediately available funds, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant in exchange for the number of shares as is computed using the following formula:

 

  X Y (A - B)  
           A

 

Where:

 

X =         the number of Shares to be issued to the Holder.

 

Y =         the total number of Shares for which the Holder has elected to exercise this Warrant pursuant to Section 4(a).

 

A =        the fair market value (as defined in Section 5(b) below) of one (1) Share (as of the applicable exercise date).

 

B =        the Exercise Price in effect under this Warrant (as adjusted to the applicable exercise date).

 

(iii)          surrendering to the Company (A) Shares previously acquired by the Holder with an aggregate fair market value as of the applicable exercise date equal to such aggregate Exercise Price and/or (B) other securities of the Company having a value as of the applicable exercise date equal to the aggregate Exercise Price (which value in the case of debt securities shall be the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, in the case of preferred stock shall be the liquidation value thereof plus accumulated and unpaid dividends and in the case of shares of Common Stock shall be the fair market value thereof), or

 

(iv)          any combination of the foregoing.

 

   

 

 

(b)         For purposes of this Section 5, the fair market value of a Share shall mean the average of the closing prices of the Shares quoted on any exchange or electronic securities market on which the Shares are listed, as published in The Wall Street Journal for the thirty (30) trading days prior to the date of determination of fair market value (or such shorter period of time during which such Shares were traded on such exchange). In the event that this Warrant is exercised pursuant to this Section 5 in connection with the Initial Public Offering, the fair market value per Share shall be the per share offering price to the public of the Initial Public Offering. If the Shares are not traded on an exchange or an electronic securities market, the fair market value shall be the price per Share that the Company could obtain pursuant to a bona fide arm’s length transaction with a willing third party buyer not affiliated with the Company for Shares sold by the Company from authorized but unissued Shares, as such prices shall be reasonably determined jointly by the Company’s Board of Directors and the Holder.

 

(c)         In the event of any withholding of Shares or surrender of other equity securities pursuant to clause (ii), (iii) or (iv) of Section 5(a) above where the number of Shares whose value is equal to the aggregate Exercise Price is not a whole number, the number of Shares withheld by or surrendered to the Company shall be rounded up to the nearest whole Share and the Company shall make a cash payment to the Holder (by delivery of a certified or official bank check or by wire transfer of immediately available funds) based on the incremental fraction of a share being so withheld by or surrendered to the Company in an amount equal to the product of (i) such incremental fraction of a share being so withheld or surrendered multiplied by (ii) in the case of Common Stock, the fair market value per Share as of the applicable exercise date, and, in all other cases, the value thereof as of the applicable exercise date determined in accordance with Section 5(a)(iii)(B) above.

7.            Representations and Warranties of the Holder. In connection with the transactions provided for herein, the Holder hereby represents and warrants to the Company that:

 

(a)         Authorization. Holder represents that it has full power and authority to enter into this Warrant. This Warrant constitutes the Holder’s valid and legally binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms.

 

(b)         Purchase Entirely for Own Account. The Holder acknowledges that this Warrant is entered into by the Holder in reliance upon such Holder’s representation to the Company that the Warrant and the Shares (collectively, the “Securities”) will be acquired for investment for the Holder’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that the Holder has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in or otherwise distributing the same.

 

(c)         Disclosure of Information. The Holder acknowledges that it has received all the information it considers necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to acquire the Securities.

(d)         Investment Experience. The Holder is an investor in securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges that it is able to fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of its investment, and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Securities.

(e)         Accredited Investor. The Holder is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D, as presently in effect, as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Act.

 

(f)          Restricted Securities. The Holder understands that the Securities are characterized as “restricted securities” under the federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold without registration under the Act, only in certain limited circumstances. In this connection, the Holder represents that it is familiar with Rule 144, as presently in effect, as promulgated by the SEC under the Act (“Rule 144”), and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Act.

(i)            there is then in effect a registration statement under the Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with such registration statement;

 

(ii)           the Holder shall have notified the Company of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a detailed statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and if reasonably requested by the Company, the Holder shall have furnished the Company with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such disposition will not require registration of such shares under the Act. It is agreed that the Company will not require opinions of counsel for transactions made pursuant to Rule 144 except in extraordinary circumstances; or

 

(iii)          if other than an individual, the Holder shall not make any disposition to any of the Company’s competitors as such is reasonably determined by the Company.

 

   

 

 

(i)          Legends. It is understood that the Securities may bear the following legend:

 

“THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR QUALIFIED UNDER ANY STATE OR FOREIGN SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED UNLESS (I) A REGISTRATION STATEMENT COVERING SUCH SHARES IS EFFECTIVE UNDER THE ACT AND IS QUALIFIED UNDER APPLICABLE STATE AND FOREIGN LAW OR (II) THE TRANSACTION IS EXEMPT FROM THE REGISTRATION AND PROSPECTUS DELIVERY REQUIREMENTS UNDER THE ACT AND THE QUALIFICATION REQUIREMENTS UNDER APPLICABLE STATE AND FOREIGN LAW AND, IF THE COMPANY REQUESTS, AN OPINION SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY TO SUCH EFFECT HAS BEEN RENDERED BY COUNSEL.”

 

(j)          Market Stand Off. To the extent requested by the Company or an underwriter of securities of the Company, the Holder and any permitted transferee thereof shall not, without the prior written consent of the managing underwriters in the IPO (as hereafter defined), offer, sell, make any short sale of, grant or sell any option for the purchase of, lend, pledge, otherwise transfer or dispose of (directly or indirectly), enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership (whether any such transaction is described above or is to be settled by delivery of Securities or other securities, in cash, or otherwise), any Securities or other shares of stock of the Company then owned by the Holder or any transferee thereof, or enter into an agreement to do any of the foregoing, for up to 180 days following the effective date of the registration statement of the initial public offering of the Company (the “IPO”) filed under the Securities Act. For purposes of this paragraph, “Company” includes any wholly owned subsidiary of the Company into which the Company merges or consolidates. The Company may place restrictive legends on the certificates representing the shares subject to this paragraph and may impose stop transfer instructions with respect to the Securities and such other shares of stock of the Holder and any transferee thereof (and the shares or securities of every other person subject to the foregoing restriction) until the end of such period. The Holder and any transferee thereof shall enter into any agreement reasonably required by the underwriters to the IPO to implement the foregoing within any reasonable timeframe so requested. The underwriters for any IPO are intended third party beneficiaries of this paragraph and shall have the right, power and authority to enforce the provisions of this paragraph as though they were parties hereto.

 

8.            Adjustment to Exercise Price and Number of Shares. In order to prevent dilution of the purchase rights granted under this Warrant, the Exercise Price and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment until immediately following the Qualified Financing as follows (in each case, after taking into consideration any prior adjustments pursuant to this Section 8):

 

(a)         Adjustment to Exercise Price Upon Issuance of Common Stock. Except as provided in Section 8(c) and except in the case of an event described in either Section 8(e) or Section 8(f), if the Company shall, at any time or from time to time after the Original Issuance Date, issue or sell any shares of Common Stock without consideration or for consideration per share less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance or sale, then immediately upon such issuance or sale, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance or sale shall be reduced (and in no event increased) to an Exercise Price equal to the quotient obtained by dividing:

 

   

 

 

(i)            the sum of (A) the product obtained by multiplying the Common Stock Deemed Outstanding immediately prior to such issuance or sale by the Exercise Price then in effect plus (B) the aggregate consideration, if any, received by the Company upon such issuance or sale; by

 

(ii)           the sum of (A) the Common Stock Deemed Outstanding immediately prior to such issuance or sale plus (B) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issued or sold by the Company in such issuance or sale.

 

(b)         Adjustment to Number of Warrant Shares Upon Adjustment to Exercise Price. Upon any and each adjustment of the Exercise Price as provided in Section 8(a), the number of Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to any such adjustment shall be increased to a number of Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing:

 

(i)            the product of (A) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to any such adjustment multiplied by (B) the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to any such adjustment; by

 

(ii)           the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment.

 

(c)         Exceptions to Adjustment Upon Issuance of Common Stock.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, there shall be no adjustment to the Exercise Price or the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to any Excluded Issuance.

 

(d)         Subdivisions, Combinations or Dividends. If the Company shall at any time after the issuance but prior to the expiration of this Warrant subdivide its Common Stock, by split-up or otherwise, or combine its Common Stock, or issue additional shares of its Common Stock as a dividend with respect to any shares of its Common Stock, the number of Shares issuable on the exercise of this Warrant shall forthwith be proportionately increased in the case of a subdivision or stock dividend, or proportionately decreased in the case of a combination. Appropriate adjustments shall also be made to the Exercise Price payable per share, but the aggregate Exercise Price payable for the total number of Shares purchasable under this Warrant (as adjusted) shall remain the same. Any adjustment under this Section 8(d) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision, combination, issuance or sale becomes effective, or as of the record date of such dividend, or in the event that no record date is fixed, upon the making of such dividend.

 

   

 

 

(e)          Reclassification, Reorganization, Consolidation or Merger. In case of any reclassification, capital reorganization, merger or change in the capital stock of the Company (other than as a result of a subdivision, combination or stock dividend provided for in Section 8(d) above), then, as a condition of such reclassification, reorganization, merger or change, lawful provision shall be made, and duly executed documents evidencing the same from the Company or its successor shall be delivered to the Holder, so that the Holder shall have the right at any time prior to the expiration of this Warrant to purchase, at a total price equal to that payable upon the exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities or property receivable in connection with such reclassification, reorganization, merger or change by a holder of the same number and type of securities as were purchasable as Shares by the Holder immediately prior to such reclassification, reorganization, merger or change. In any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interest of the Holder so that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable with respect to any shares of stock or other securities or property deliverable upon exercise hereof, and appropriate adjustments shall be made to the Exercise Price per Share payable hereunder, provided that the aggregate Exercise Price shall remain the same.

 

(f)          Certain Events. If any event of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section 8 but not expressly provided for by such provisions (including, without limitation, the issuance of options, the issuance of convertible securities, the granting of stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features) occurs, then the Company’s Board of Directors shall make an appropriate adjustment in the Exercise Price and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant so as to protect the rights of the Holder in a manner consistent with the provisions of this Section 8; provided, that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 8(f) shall increase the Exercise Price or decrease the number of Shares issuable as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 8.

 

(g)          Notice of Adjustment. Whenever following the Original Issuance Date, any adjustment is required to be made in the number or kind of shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrant, or in the Exercise Price, the Company shall promptly prepare a certificate signed by an executive officer setting forth in reasonable detail such adjustment, including the number of Shares or other securities or property thereafter purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant, the facts upon which it is based and certifying the calculation thereof and shall cause copies of such certificate to be mailed to the Holder at the address specified in Section 21 hereof or at such other address as may be provided to the Company in writing by the Holder.

 

9.            No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but in lieu of such fractional shares the Company shall make a cash payment therefor on the basis of the Exercise Price then in effect.

 

10.          Company Covenants.

 

(a)          Payment of Taxes. The Company shall pay all expenses in connection with, and all taxes and other governmental charges that may be imposed with respect to, the issuance or delivery of Shares upon exercise of this Warrant; provided, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed with respect to any applicable withholding or the issuance or delivery of the Shares to any person other than the Holder, and no such issuance or delivery shall be made unless and until the person requesting such issuance has paid to the Company the amount of any such tax, or has established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.

 

   

 

 

(b)          Financial Information Rights. The Company shall provide the Holder with financial statements of the Company as such financial information becomes available to Company and any additional information requested by the Holder that Holder reasonably deems necessary to enable Holder to comply with Holder’s accounting or reporting requirements or that Holder may otherwise reasonably request, provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated pursuant to this section 10(b) to provide access to any information the disclosure of which, could adversely affect the attorney client privilege between the Company and its counsel; and provided further that all information received by the holder under this Section 10(b) shall be treated and held by the Holder in confidence in accordance with the terms of Section 11.

 

11.          Confidentiality.

Prior to exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall not be entitled to any rights of a stockholder with respect to the Shares, including (without limitation) the right to vote such Shares, receive dividends or other distributions thereon, exercise preemptive rights or be notified of stockholder meetings. In addition, nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing any liabilities on the Holder to purchase any securities (upon exercise of this Warrant or otherwise) or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company. Notwithstanding this Section 12, the Company shall provide the Holder with copies of the same notices and other information given to the stockholders of the Company generally, contemporaneously with the giving thereof to the stockholders.
