                   A
 
Where:

1.5.
In the event that, upon the Last Date, the Fair Market Value of one Warrant Share (or other security issuable upon the exercise hereof) as determined in accordance with Section 1.4 above is greater than the Exercise Price in effect on such date, then, unless otherwise directed in writing by the Holder, this Warrant shall automatically be deemed on and as of such date to be exercised pursuant to Section 1.4 above with respect to all Warrant Shares (or such other securities) for which it shall not previously have been exercised, and the Company shall promptly deliver a certificate representing such number of Warrant Shares (or such other securities) issued upon such exercise to Holder.

3.
RESERVATION OF SHARES; PRESERVATION OF RIGHTS OF HOLDER
 
 
3.1.
Reservation of Shares. The Company hereby agrees that, at all times prior to the expiration or exercise of this Warrant, it will maintain and reserve, free from pre-emptive or similar rights, such number of authorized but unissued shares so that this Warrant may be exercised without additional authorization of shares.
 
 
3.2.
Preservation of Rights. The Company will not, by amendment of its organizational documents or through reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation, merger, dissolution, transfer of assets, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary act, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the covenants, stipulations, conditions or terms to be observed or performed hereunder, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions hereof and in taking of all such actions and making all such adjustments as may be necessary or appropriate in order to fulfill the provisions hereof.
 
4.
ADJUSTMENT
 
 
4.1.
The number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time or upon exercise, as follows:
 
 
(a)
If the Company at any time or from time to time after the date hereof effects a subdivision of the outstanding Shares or consolidates the outstanding Shares, then the Exercise Price shall be adjusted to that price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price immediately prior to such event by a fraction:
 
 
(i)
the numerator of which shall be the total number of outstanding Shares immediately prior to such event; and
 
 
(ii)
the denominator of which shall be the total number of outstanding Shares immediately after such event.
 
Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price as provided in this paragraph (a), the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to acquire, at the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment, the number of Shares (calculated to the nearest Share) obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of Shares which may be acquired hereunder immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the product thereof by the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment.
 
 
6

 
 
 
(b)
If the Company at any time or from time to time after the date hereof makes, or fixes a record date for the determination of holders of Shares entitled to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in additional Shares, then in each such event the Exercise Price that is then in effect shall be adjusted as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such record date is fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Exercise Price then in effect by a fraction:
 
 
(i)
the numerator of which is the total number of Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date; and
 
 
(ii)
the denominator of which is the total number of Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date plus the number of Shares issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution;
 
provided, however, that if such record date is fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, the Exercise Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date and thereafter the Exercise Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this section to reflect the actual payment of such dividend or distribution. Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price as provided in this paragraph (b), the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to acquire, at the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment, the number of Shares (calculated to the nearest Share) obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of Shares which may be acquired hereunder immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the product thereof by the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment.
 
 
7

 
 
 
(c)
If the Company at any time or from time to time after the date hereof makes, or fixes a record date for the determination of holders of Shares entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in securities of the Company other than Shares, then in each such event provision shall be made so that the Holder shall receive upon exercise of this Warrant, in addition to the number of Shares receivable thereupon, the amount of other securities of the Company which it would have received had this Warrant been exercised for such number of Shares immediately prior to the date of such event (or record 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 such securities receivable by it as aforesaid during such period, subject to all other adjustments called for during such period under this section and the Company's Articles of Association as shall be in effect from time to time, with respect to the rights of the Holder.
 
 
(d)
In case the Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are changed into the same or different number of shares of any class or classes of shares, whether by recapitalization, reclassification or otherwise (other than a subdivision or consolidation of shares, share dividend or other reorganization, provided for elsewhere in this Section), then in each such event this Warrant shall be exercised into the kind and amount of shares or other securities and property receivable on such recapitalization, reclassification or other change that the Holder would have been entitled to receive thereupon had the Holder been the registered holder of the number of Shares into which this Warrant might have been exercised immediately prior thereto.
 
 
4.2.
Whenever an adjustment is effected hereunder, the Company shall, at its expense, promptly compute such adjustment and deliver to the Holder a certificate setting forth the number of Warrant Shares (or any other securities) for which this Warrant is exercisable and the Exercise Price as a result of such adjustment, a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment and the computation thereof and when such adjustment has or will become effective.
 
 
4.3.
Except as otherwise provided herein, Sections 4.1(a) to 4.1(d) hereof are intended to operate independently of one another. If an event occurs that requires the application of more than one subsection, all applicable subsections shall be given independent effect, but there shall be no duplicate adjustments if two separate subsections provide the same protection.
 
 
8

 
 
 
4.4.
Notices of Certain Transactions. In case:
 
 
(a)
the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Shares (or other stock or securities at the time deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant) for the purpose of entitling or enabling them to receive any dividend or other distribution, or
 
 
(b)
of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company
 
then, and in each such case, the Company will mail or cause to be mailed to the Holder a notice specifying, as the case may be, (i) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend or distribution, and stating the amount and character of such dividend or distribution, or (ii) the effective date on which such voluntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is to take place, and the time, if any is to be fixed, as of which the holders of record of Shares (or such other shares or securities at the time deliverable upon such voluntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up) are to be determined. Such notice shall be mailed at least ten (10) days prior to the record date or effective date for the event specified in such notice.
 
5.
EXERCISE OF THE WARRANT UPON AN EXIT EVENT
 
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Warrant, if at any time during the Warrant Period, the Company consummates an Exit Event, or at the discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company, in the event that the Company believes that an Exit Event is likely to be consummated during such period, the Company shall provide written notice of such Exit Event (or, if applicable, an anticipated Exit Event) to the Holder (the "Exit Event Notice"). Within fourteen (14) days after Holder’s receipt of the Exit Event Notice, Holder must notify the Company if it intends to exercise this Warrant pursuant to Section 1.3 or 1.4 of this Warrant, in which case such exercise shall be effective contingent upon and immediately prior to the consummation of the Exit Event. Thereafter, so long as the Company consummates such Exit Event within one hundred and eighty (180) days after Holder’s receipt of the Exit Event Notice (to the extent the Exit Event shall not have occurred prior to the Exit Event Notice), Holder shall have no further rights hereunder and this Warrant shall be automatically terminated if not so exercised. If the Company fails to consummate such Exit Event within such time, then this Warrant shall remain in effect subject to the provisions contained herein
 
For the purposes hereof, an "Exit Event" shall mean the closing of (i) a merger of the Company with or into another corporation, (ii) an acquisition of all or substantially all of the shares of the Company, (iii) the sale or license of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, in all cases, other than a merger or transaction in which the persons that beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, a majority of the share capital of the Company immediately prior to such merger or transaction, beneficially own, directly or indirectly, a majority of the total shares of capital stock of the surviving or transferee entity. For greater certainty an initial public offering of the securities of the Company shall not be considered an "Exit Event".

6.

The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares shall be subject to such rights, privileges, restrictions and limitations as set forth in this Warrant and the organizational documents of the Company (or any other agreement with respect thereto), as may be amended from time to time, and that, as a result, inter alia, of such limitations, it may be difficult or impossible for the Holder to realize his investment and/or to sell or otherwise transfer the Warrant Shares. The Holder further acknowledges that the Company's shares are not currently publicly traded.

In the event that, upon the Last Date, the Fair Market Value of one Warrant Share (or other security issuable upon the exercise hereof) as determined in accordance with Section 1.4 above is greater than the Exercise Price in effect on such date, then, unless otherwise directed in writing by the Holder, this Warrant shall automatically be deemed on and as of such date to be exercised pursuant to Section 1.4 above with respect to all Warrant Shares (or such other securities) for which it shall not previously have been exercised, and the Company shall promptly deliver a certificate representing such number of Warrant Shares (or such other securities) issued upon such exercise to Holder.
 
 
1.6.
Issuance of Warrant Shares. Upon presentation and surrender of this Warrant, accompanied by (a) the duly executed Exercise Notice and the payment of the applicable Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares being purchased pursuant to Section 1.3 above; or (b) the duly executed Net Issuance Notice pursuant to Section 1.4 above, as the case may be, the Company shall promptly (i) issue to the Holder the Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled; and (ii) deliver to the Holder the share certificate evidencing such Warrant Shares.
 
Upon receipt by the Company of this Warrant and the applicable duly executed notice of exercise (and the Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares being purchased, if applicable), together with any other documents and/or approvals that may be required by law, the Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, notwithstanding that the share transfer books of the Company shall then be closed or that certificates representing such shares shall not then be actually delivered to the Holder.
 
 
1.7.
Fractional Shares. No fractions of shares shall be issued in connection with the exercise of this Warrant, and the number of shares issued shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number.

TAXES
 
 
2.1.
The Holder acknowledges that the grant of the Warrant, the issuance of the Warrant Shares and the execution and/or performance of this Warrant may have tax consequences to the Holder and that the Company is not able to ensure or represent to the Holder the nature and extent of such tax consequences.
 
 
2.2.
The Company shall pay all of the applicable taxes and other charges payable by the Company in connection with the issuance of the Warrant Shares and the preparation and delivery of share certificates in the name of the Holder (such as transfer taxes in respect of the issuance or delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant), if any, but shall not pay any taxes payable by the Holder by virtue of the holding, issuance, exercise or sale of this Warrant or the Warrant Shares by the Holder.
 
3.
RESERVATION OF SHARES; PRESERVATION OF RIGHTS OF HOLDER
 
 
3.1.
Reservation of Shares. The Company hereby agrees that, at all times prior to the expiration or exercise of this Warrant, it will maintain and reserve, free from pre-emptive or similar rights, such number of authorized but unissued shares so that this Warrant may be exercised without additional authorization of shares.
 
 
3.2.
Preservation of Rights. The Company will not, by amendment of its organizational documents or through reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation, merger, dissolution, transfer of assets, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary act, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the covenants, stipulations, conditions or terms to be observed or performed hereunder, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions hereof and in taking of all such actions and making all such adjustments as may be necessary or appropriate in order to fulfill the provisions hereof.

4.
ADJUSTMENT
 
 
4.1.
The number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time or upon exercise, as follows:
 
 
(a)
If the Company at any time or from time to time after the date hereof effects a subdivision of the outstanding Shares or consolidates the outstanding Shares, then the Exercise Price shall be adjusted to that price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price immediately prior to such event by a fraction:
 
 
(i)
the numerator of which shall be the total number of outstanding Shares immediately prior to such event; and
 
 
(ii)
the denominator of which shall be the total number of outstanding Shares immediately after such event.
 
 
 
Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price as provided in this paragraph (a), the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to acquire, at the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment, the number of Shares (calculated to the nearest Share) obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of Shares which may be acquired hereunder immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the product thereof by the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment.
 
 
(b)
If the Company at any time or from time to time after the date hereof makes, or fixes a record date for the determination of holders of Shares entitled to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in additional Shares, then in each such event the Exercise Price that is then in effect shall be adjusted as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such record date is fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Exercise Price then in effect by a fraction:
 
 
6

 
 
 
(i)
the numerator of which is the total number of Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date; and
 
 
(ii)
the denominator of which is the total number of Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date plus the number of Shares issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution;
 
 
 
provided, however, that if such record date is fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, the Exercise Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date and thereafter the Exercise Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this section to reflect the actual payment of such dividend or distribution. Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price as provided in this paragraph (b), the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to acquire, at the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment, the number of Shares (calculated to the nearest Share) obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of Shares which may be acquired hereunder immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the product thereof by the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment.
 
 
(c)
If the Company at any time or from time to time after the date hereof makes, or fixes a record date for the determination of holders of Shares entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in securities of the Company other than Shares, then in each such event provision shall be made so that the Holder shall receive upon exercise of this Warrant, in addition to the number of Shares receivable thereupon, the amount of other securities of the Company which it would have received had this Warrant been exercised for such number of Shares immediately prior to the date of such event (or record 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 such securities receivable by it as aforesaid during such period, subject to all other adjustments called for during such period under this section and the Company's Articles of Association as shall be in effect from time to time, with respect to the rights of the Holder.
 
 
7

 
 
 
(d)
In case the Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are changed into the same or different number of shares of any class or classes of shares, whether by recapitalization, reclassification or otherwise (other than a subdivision or consolidation of shares, share dividend or other reorganization, provided for elsewhere in this Section), then in each such event this Warrant shall be exercised into the kind and amount of shares or other securities and property receivable on such recapitalization, reclassification or other change that the Holder would have been entitled to receive thereupon had the Holder been the registered holder of the number of Shares into which this Warrant might have been exercised immediately prior thereto.
 
 
4.2.
Whenever an adjustment is effected hereunder, the Company shall, at its expense, promptly compute such adjustment and deliver to the Holder a certificate setting forth the number of Warrant Shares (or any other securities) for which this Warrant is exercisable and the Exercise Price as a result of such adjustment, a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment and the computation thereof and when such adjustment has or will become effective.
 
 
4.3.
Except as otherwise provided herein, Sections 4.1(a) to 4.1(d) hereof are intended to operate independently of one another. If an event occurs that requires the application of more than one subsection, all applicable subsections shall be given independent effect, but there shall be no duplicate adjustments if two separate subsections provide the same protection.
 
 
4.4.
Notices of Certain Transactions. In case:
 
 
(a)
the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Shares (or other stock or securities at the time deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant) for the purpose of entitling or enabling them to receive any dividend or other distribution, or
 
 
(b)
of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company
 
then, and in each such case, the Company will mail or cause to be mailed to the Holder a notice specifying, as the case may be, (i) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend or distribution, and stating the amount and character of such dividend or distribution, or (ii) the effective date on which such voluntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is to take place, and the time, if any is to be fixed, as of which the holders of record of Shares (or such other shares or securities at the time deliverable upon such voluntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up) are to be determined. Such notice shall be mailed at least ten (10) days prior to the record date or effective date for the event specified in such notice.

EXERCISE OF THE WARRANT UPON AN EXIT EVENT
 
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Warrant, if at any time commencing as of the consummation of the IPO and ending on the Last Date, the Company consummates an Exit Event, or at the discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company, in the event that the Company believes that an Exit Event is likely to be consummated during such period, the Company shall provide written notice of such Exit Event (or, if applicable, an anticipated Exit Event) to the Holder (the "Exit Event Notice"). Within fourteen (14) days after Holder’s receipt of the Exit Event Notice, Holder must notify the Company if it intends to exercise this Warrant pursuant to Section 1.3 or 1.4 of this Warrant, in which case such exercise shall be effective contingent upon and immediately prior to the consummation of the Exit Event. Thereafter, so long as the Company consummates such Exit Event within one hundred and eighty (180) days after Holder’s receipt of the Exit Event Notice (to the extent the Exit Event shall not have occurred prior to the Exit Event Notice), Holder shall have no further rights hereunder and this Warrant shall be automatically terminated if not so exercised. If the Company fails to consummate such Exit Event within such time, then this Warrant shall remain in effect subject to the provisions contained herein.
 
For the purposes hereof, an "Exit Event" shall mean the closing of (i) a merger of the Company with or into another corporation, (ii) an acquisition of all or substantially all of the shares of the Company, (iii) the sale or license of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, in all cases, other than a merger or transaction in which the persons that beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, a majority of the share capital of the Company immediately prior to such merger or transaction, beneficially own, directly or indirectly, a majority of the total shares of capital stock of the surviving or transferee entity. For greater certainty the IPO shall not be considered an "Exit Event."
