MEREDITH CORPORATION

WARRANT TO PURCHASE CLASS A COMMON STOCK

Warrant No. 1 January 31, 2018 (the “Issue Date”)

Meredith Corporation, an Iowa corporation (the “Company”), for value received, certifies and agrees (this warrant and any other warrants delivered in substitution or exchange herefor as provided herein, this “Warrant”) that KED MDP Investments, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Holder”), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company 1,625,000 duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Class A Common Stock (such shares, subject to adjustment as provided herein, the “Warrant Shares”) for $1.00 per Warrant Share (the “Exercise Price”). Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms in this Warrant have the meanings set forth in Section 21. This Warrant has been issued pursuant to the terms of the Series A Securities Purchase Agreement.

1. Term. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Holder may exercise this Warrant for all or any part of the Warrant Shares at any time or from time to time after the Issue Date until the Expiration Date (the “Exercise Period”); provided that, subject to Section 2.2 and Section 10 with respect to a Competition Law Filing, if this Warrant has not been fully exercised by 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date described in clause (a) of the definition of Expiration Date, this Warrant will be deemed automatically exercised pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(i) as of such time without any action required of the Holder or the Company.

2. Exercise.

2.1 Method of Exercise. This Warrant may be exercised by the Holder, in whole or in part:

(a) by surrendering (i) this Warrant and (ii) a duly executed Notice of Exercise in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Notice of Exercise”) to the Company (or its agent) via delivery in accordance with Section 16; and

(b) by:

(i) instructing the Company to withhold a number of Warrant Shares then issuable upon exercise of this Warrant equal to (A) the Aggregate Exercise Price divided by (B) the Per Share Price;

(ii) surrendering to the Company a number of Warrant Shares previously acquired by the Holder equal to (A) the Aggregate Exercise Price divided by (B) the Per Share Price; or

(iii) any combination of the foregoing.

In the event of any withholding of Warrant Shares pursuant to this Section 2.1(b) in which the number of shares whose value is equal to the Aggregate Exercise Price is not a whole number, the Company will withhold a fraction of a Warrant Share such that the value of the total number of Warrant Shares (including such fraction of a Warrant Share) withheld equals the Aggregate Exercise Price.

2.2 Exercise Date.

(a) Each exercise of this Warrant will be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the day (i) on which the Notice of Exercise pursuant to Section 2.1 is deemed to be delivered pursuant to Section 16, (ii) if a later date is specified in the Notice of Exercise, such later date, or (iii) if this Warrant has not previously been exercised prior to the Expiration Date, on the Business Day immediately preceding the Expiration Date, but in any event, if a Competition Law Filing is required to permit the Holder to exercise this Warrant for Warrant Shares in compliance with applicable Law, not earlier than the date that all applicable waiting periods have expired or been terminated or required approvals have been received, provided that in such instance the Expiration Date shall automatically be extended until the day following the expiration or termination of any such applicable waiting periods (each such date, an “Exercise Date”).

(b) At such time, each Person in whose name any certificates for Warrant Shares are issuable upon such exercise as provided in Section 2.3 will become a holder of record of the Warrant Shares represented by such certificates (or such lesser number of Warrant Shares as specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise). If the Holder determines that no Competition Law Filings are required, on or prior to the Exercise Date, the Holder shall provide a written representation to the Company that (i) the Holder’s holdings of voting securities of the Company after the exercise of the Warrant will be below the then applicable size-of-transaction threshold under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (the “HSR Act”) and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder or (ii) the Holder will hold the voting securities solely for the purpose of investment, in accordance with 15 U.S.C. §18a(c)(9) and 16 CFR 802.9.

-2-

2.3 Certificates and New Warrants. As soon as practicable after an Exercise Date (and in any event within five Business Days thereafter), the Company, at its expense, will cause to be issued in the name of, and delivered to, the Holder, or otherwise as the Holder may direct (subject to Section 5):

(a) a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Class A Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon such exercise (it being agreed that each certificate so delivered will be in such denominations of shares of Class A Common Stock as may be requested by the Holder) or, in lieu of certificates, maintaining the Warrant Shares’ inclusion in the book entry settlement system of DTC if the Company is then a participant in such system; and

(b) if such exercise is in part only, a new Warrant or Warrants substantially identical in form hereto for the purchase of a number of Warrant Shares equal to the difference of the number of Warrant Shares subject to this Warrant less the number of Warrant Shares that are issued to the Holder pursuant to such partial exercise.

2.4 Conditional Exercise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an exercise of any portion of this Warrant is to be made in connection with a public offering or a sale of the Company (pursuant to a merger, sale of stock, or otherwise), such exercise may at the election of the Holder be conditioned upon the consummation of such transaction, in which case the Exercise Date will be the date of such consummation and such exercise will not be deemed to be effective until immediately prior to such consummation on the Exercise Date.

2.5 Company Redemption Right. Notwithstanding any of the provisions in this Section 2 (other than Section 2.6(c)), the Company may elect, by delivery of written notice (the “Redemption Notice”) to the Holder no later than two Business Days after receipt of the Notice of Exercise, to pay to the Holder (in lieu of delivery of the applicable number of Warrant Shares) an amount per such Warrant Share equal to the greater of (a) the volume weighted average price (rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of one cent) of the Class A Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange for the 30 trading days immediately preceding the date on which the Holder delivers the Notice of Exercise, as calculated by Bloomberg Financial LP under the function “VWAP” or any successor page or function, and (b) the closing price of the Class A Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the date the Company delivers the Redemption Notice (such greater amount, the “Redemption Share Price”). Any such election will not be for less than all of the Warrant Shares to be issued in connection with such Notice of Exercise. Such cash payment to Holder will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account(s) provided by Holder, no later than ten Business Days following the delivery of the Redemption Notice.

2.6 Ownership Cap.

(a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, unless and until the Company obtains the Shareholder Approval, the Company shall not issue to the Holder any Warrant Shares to the extent such Warrant Shares, after giving effect to such issuance and when added to the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issued and issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock or exercise of the Options, would (a) exceed 19.9% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of the date of the Closing Date (the “Maximum Aggregate Ownership Amount”) or (b) exceed 19.9% of the total voting power of the Company’s securities outstanding as of the date of the Closing Date that are entitled to vote on a matter being voted on by holders of the Common Stock (the “Maximum Aggregate Voting Amount”).

(b) For purposes of this Section 2, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

(c) If any attempted exercise of this Warrant would result in the issuance of Warrant Shares exceeding the Maximum Aggregate Ownership Amount or the Maximum Aggregate Voting Amount, and the Company has not obtained the Shareholder Approval prior to the time of such exercise (the “Excess Condition”), then (i) the Company will issue to the Holder such number of Warrant Shares as may be issued below the Maximum Aggregate Ownership Amount or Maximum Aggregate Voting Amount, as the case may be, and (ii) at the election of the Holder made at any time while the Excess Condition exists, either (A) the Company will pay to the Holder by wire transfer of immediately available funds (in lieu of delivery of the Excess Shares or of replacement Warrant) an amount per Excess Share equal to the Redemption Share Price as of the date of such election or (B) this Warrant will be deemed to have not been exercised with respect to the remaining portion of the Warrant Shares (the “Excess Shares”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Warrant, if the Excess Condition exists as of the Expiration Date, the Expiration Date will be extended until the date that is 30 days after the Excess Condition no longer exists.

(d) Prior to the first annual meeting of shareholders of the Company to occur following the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Shareholder Meeting”), the Company will provide each holder of Common Stock or other securities entitled to vote at such meeting a proxy statement meeting the requirements of Section 14 of the Exchange Act and the related rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Proxy Statement”) soliciting each such shareholder’s affirmative vote at the Shareholder Meeting for approval of resolutions approving the Company’s issuance of the Warrant Shares and Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock or exercise of the Options in excess of the Maximum Aggregate Ownership Amount and Maximum Aggregate Voting Amount in accordance with their respective terms (the “Shareholder Approval”) in accordance with applicable rules and regulations of the New York Stock Exchange (or any other applicable successor entity), the Articles of Incorporation, the Company’s bylaws and applicable Iowa and New York law, and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to solicit its shareholders’ approval of such resolutions and to cause the Board to

-4-

recommend to the shareholders that they approve such resolutions. If any Warrant Shares are issued prior to the time the Shareholder Approval is obtained, such Warrant Shares will not be voted in connection with any subsequent meeting of shareholders of the Company, to the extent owned by Holder at such time, to obtain the Shareholder Approval in accordance with applicable rules and regulations of the New York Stock Exchange.

(e) The Proxy Statement shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to the Holder and accordingly, the Company shall provide the Holder and a single counsel designated by the Holder with reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the relevant portions of the Proxy Statement. The Company shall keep the Holder apprised of the status of matters relating to the Proxy Statement and the Shareholder Meeting, including promptly furnishing the Holder and its counsel with copies of notices or other communications related to the Proxy Statement, the Shareholder Meeting or the transactions contemplated hereby received by the Company from the Securities and Exchange Commission or the New York Stock Exchange.

(f) If, despite the Company’s best efforts, Shareholder Approval is not obtained at the Shareholder Meeting, the Company shall, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Holder, cause an additional meeting of shareholders of the Company to be held every six months thereafter until such Shareholder Approval is obtained, and the Company will hire a reputable proxy solicitor for the purpose of pursuing such approval.

3. Shares to be Fully Paid; Reservation of Shares. The Company represents, warrants, covenants and agrees that:

(a) this Warrant is, and any Warrant issued in substitution for or replacement of this Warrant will be, upon issuance, duly authorized and validly issued;

(b) all Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of this Warrant will, upon issuance, be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and free from preemptive or similar rights and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect thereto (other than liens and charges arising solely from the actions and circumstances of the Holder or holder of such Warrant Shares);

(c) the Company will at all times during the Exercise Period have authorized, and reserved, free from preemptive or similar rights and solely for the purpose of effecting the exercise of this Warrant, out of its authorized but unissued Class A Common Stock, a sufficient number of shares of Class A Common Stock to provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, which shares have not been subscribed for or otherwise committed to be issued;

-5-

(d) the Company will take all such action as may be necessary to ensure that the par value per Warrant Share will at all times during the Exercise Period be less than or equal to the applicable Exercise Price;

(e) the Company will take all such actions as may be necessary to ensure that all such Warrant Shares are issued without violation by the Company of any applicable Law or any requirements of any securities exchange upon which shares of Common Stock or other securities constituting Warrant Shares may be listed at the time of such exercise (except for official notice of issuance which will be immediately delivered by the Company upon each such issuance);

(f) the Company will use its best efforts to cause the Warrant Shares, immediately upon such exercise, to be listed on any securities exchange upon which shares of Class A Common Stock or other securities constituting Warrant Shares are listed at the time of such exercise; and

(g) the Company will 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 Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant; provided, however, that in the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, the Company may, as a condition thereto, require the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.

4. Adjustment. To prevent dilution of the exercise rights granted under this Warrant, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant will be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 4 (in each case, after taking into consideration any prior adjustments pursuant to this Section 4).

4.1 Adjustment to Number of Warrant Shares Upon Subdivision or Combination of Class A Common Stock.

(i) If Company at any time subdivides (by stock split, recapitalization or otherwise) its outstanding number of shares of Class A Common Stock into a greater number of shares of Class A Common Stock, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to any such subdivision shall be proportionately increased.

(ii) If Company at any time combines or reclassifies (by reverse stock split, combination or otherwise) its outstanding number of shares of Class A Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Class A Common Stock, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately decreased.

(iii) Any adjustment under this Section 4.1 shall be conditioned on, and become effective immediately upon, the effectiveness of the subdivision or combination.

-6-

4.2 Business Combination. In the event of any Business Combination, (i) this Warrant will, immediately after such Business Combination, remain outstanding and thereafter, in lieu of or in addition to (as the case may be) the number of Warrant Shares then exercisable under this Warrant, be exercisable for the kind and number of shares of stock or other securities or assets of the Company or of the successor Person (including cash) resulting from such Business Combination to which the Holder would have been entitled upon such Business Combination if the Holder had exercised this Warrant in full immediately prior to the time of such Business Combination and acquired the applicable number of Warrant Shares then issuable hereunder as a result of such exercise (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the exercisability of this Warrant) and (ii) in such case, appropriate adjustment (in form and substance satisfactory to the Holder) will be made with respect to the Holder’s rights under this Warrant to ensure that the provisions of this Section 4 are thereafter applicable, as nearly as possible, to this Warrant in relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Company will not effect any Business Combination described in this Section 4.2 unless either, prior to the consummation thereof, the successor Person (if other than the Company) resulting from such Business Combination, will assume, by written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant and satisfactory to the Holder, the obligation to deliver to the Holder such shares of stock, securities or assets that, in accordance with this Section 4, the Holder will be entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant, or upon consummation thereof, the Holder will be entitled to receive the same kind and number of shares of stock or other securities or assets (including cash) resulting from such Business Combination as the Holder would have been entitled upon such the Business Combination if the Holder had exercised this Warrant in full immediately prior to the time of such Business Combination and acquired the applicable number of Warrant Shares then issuable hereunder (assuming exercise pursuant to Section 2.1(b)). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, with respect to any Business Combination, the Holder will have the right to elect prior to the consummation of such Business Combination, to give effect to the exercise rights contained in Section 2 instead of giving effect to the provisions contained in this Section 4.2 with respect to this Warrant.

4.3 Certain Events. If any event of the type contemplated by Section 4.1 or 4.2 but not expressly provided for by this Section 4 occurs, then the Board and the Holder will jointly determine in good faith an appropriate adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant so as to protect the rights of the Holder in a manner consistent with this Section 4.

4.4 Adjustment to Exercise Price. In connection with any adjustment described in this Section 4, the Exercise Price per Warrant Share shall be automatically adjusted so that the aggregate Exercise Price for all outstanding Warrant Shares as of immediately prior to such adjustment shall equal the aggregate Exercise Price for all outstanding Warrant Shares as of immediately following such conversion.

4.5 Dividends and Distributions. If the Company, at any time after the issuance of this Warrant, makes or declares, or fixes a record date for the determination of holders of Class A Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or any other

-7-

distribution payable in securities of the Company, cash or other property, then, and in each such event, the Holder will receive at the same time as the holders of Class A Common Stock, the kind and amount of securities of the Company, cash or other property which the Holder would have been entitled to receive had the Warrant been exercised in full into Warrant Shares on the date of such event (and the record date therefor).

4.6 Certificates.

(a) Adjustment Certificates. As promptly as practicable following any adjustment of the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant (but in any event not later than five Business Days thereafter), the Company will furnish to the Holder a certificate reasonably satisfactory to the Holder executed by a duly authorized officer thereof (i) certifying the Exercise Price then in effect and the number of Warrant Shares or the amount, if any, of other shares of stock, securities or assets then issuable upon exercise of the Warrant and (b) setting forth in reasonable detail such adjustment and the facts upon which it is based and certifying the calculation thereof.

4.7 Notices. In the event, prior to the earlier of the Expiration Date and the date on which this Warrant has been exercised in full, (a) that the Company sets a record date (or a record date will otherwise occur) for any (i) dividend or other distribution, (ii) vote at a meeting (or action by written consent), (iii) right to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or any other securities or (iv) right to receive any other security or right in or to a security, or (b) of a potential Business Combination or the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company, then the Company will send or cause to be sent to the Holder at least 15 days prior to the applicable record date or the expected effective date, as applicable, for the event described above, a written notice in accordance with Section 16 specifying, as applicable, (A) the record date for such dividend, distribution, meeting or consent or other right or action and a description of such dividend, distribution or other right or such action to be taken at such meeting or by written consent or (B) the effective date on which such Business Combination or dissolution, liquidation or winding up is proposed to take place, and the date, if any is to be fixed, as of which the books of the Company will close or a record will be taken with respect to which the holders of record of Class A Common Stock (or such other capital stock or securities at the time issuable upon exercise of the Warrant) will be entitled to exchange their shares of Class A Common Stock (or such other capital stock or securities) for securities or other property deliverable upon such Business Combination or dissolution, liquidation or winding up, and the amount per share and character of such exchange applicable to the Warrant and the Warrant Shares. To the extent the Company discloses any of these matters to its stockholders by means of a press release or SEC filing, the Company’s notice obligations to the Holder under this Section 4.7 will be deemed satisfied.

4.8 Successive Adjustments. Any adjustments made pursuant to this Section 4 will be made successively whenever an event referred to in this Section 4 occurs.

5. Warrant Register; Transfer.

5.1 Warrant Register. The Company will keep and properly maintain at its principal executive office books and records for the registration of this Warrant and any transfers thereof. The Company (i) may deem and treat the Person in whose name this Warrant is registered on such books as the Holder thereof for all purposes and (ii) will not be affected by any notice to the contrary, except any assignment, division, combination or other transfer of this Warrant effected in accordance with the provisions hereof.

Upon request of a Holder, the Company will use reasonable best efforts to assist such Holder in any sale without registration of all or any portion of this Warrant (a “Resale”) under the Securities Act in accordance with applicable securities Laws including any sale under any of Rule 144, Rule 144A or Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act. The Company will cooperate with and assist each such Holder in connection with any Resale by such Holder, including, subject to prospective purchasers’ execution of a customary confidentiality agreement in a form acceptable to the Company, by (A) providing direct contact between its senior management and advisors and prospective purchasers, (B) responding to reasonable inquiries of, and providing answers to, prospective purchasers, (C) providing assistance in completion of the prospective purchasers’ reasonable due diligence review, (D) hosting one or more meetings of prospective purchasers at the Company’s facilities or such other location selected by the Company, provided that the Company shall not be required to host more than two of such meetings with respect to any single prospective purchaser and (E) providing all reasonable information and access required or advisable to comply with applicable securities Laws.

5.3 Warrant Share Transfer.

(a) All Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant will be freely transferable subject to registration pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement and compliance with applicable securities Laws. Subject to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company will take all action necessary to ensure all Warrant Shares are, upon issuance hereunder, freely transferrable by the holder thereof. Compliance by the Company with its obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement and the other provisions of this Warrant will satisfy the Company’s obligations under this Section 5.3(a).

(b) Upon request of a Holder of Warrant Shares, the Company will use reasonable best efforts to assist such Holder in any sale of all or any portion of any Warrant Shares owned by such Holder (a “Share Resale”) under the Securities Act in accordance with applicable securities Laws, including any sale under any of Rule 144, Rule 144A or Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act, including (i) maintaining the Warrant Shares’ inclusion in the book entry settlement system of DTC, (ii) complying with all obligations set forth in the Company’s representations letter to DTC relating to such inclusion and (iii) maintaining appropriate CUSIP numbers for the Warrant Shares. The Company will cooperate with and assist each such holder in connection with any Share Resale by such Holder, including by (A) providing direct contact between its senior management and advisors and prospective purchasers, (B) responding to reasonable inquiries of, and providing answers to, prospective purchasers, (C) providing assistance in completion of the prospective purchasers’ reasonable due diligence review, (D) hosting one or more meetings of prospective purchasers at the Company’s facilities or such other location selected by the Company, provided that the Company shall not be required to host more than two of such meetings with respect to any single prospective purchaser and (E) providing all reasonable information and access required or advisable to comply with applicable securities Laws.

6. [Reserved.]

7. Holder Not Deemed a Shareholder; Limitations on Liability. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, prior to the issuance to the Holder of the Warrant Shares to which the Holder is then entitled to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder (in its capacity as such) will not be entitled to vote or be deemed the holder of shares of capital stock of the Company for any purpose, and nothing in this Warrant will be construed to confer upon the Holder (in its capacity as such) any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether any Business Combination or issuance or reclassification of stock), receive notice of meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise. Nothing in this Warrant will be construed as imposing any liabilities on the Holder to purchase any securities (upon exercise of this Warrant or otherwise) or as a shareholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company, creditors of the Company or any other third Persons.

8. Effect of Violation. Any action or attempted action by the Company in violation of this Warrant will be null and void ab initio and of no force or effect whatsoever.

10. Competition Law Filings. Upon at least 15 Business Days’ notice, at the request of the Holder, the Company will, in consultation and cooperation with the Holder, file or submit, and assist the Holder with any filing, submission or notification it makes, in connection with the exercise of this Warrant (alone or in conjunction with the exercise of any options held by the Holder) with or to any governmental entity any filing, report or notification necessary or advisable in connection with any antitrust, competition or merger control Law applicable to such exercise, including the notification and report form, if any, required to be filed with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”) and the U.S. Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) under the HSR Act (such applicable Laws, collectively, “Competition Laws,” and such filings and submissions, collectively, the “Competition Law Filings”). Any such Competition Law Filings made by each of the Holder and the Company will be in substantial compliance with the requirements of the Competition Laws. Each of the Holder and the Company will use its reasonable best efforts, and cooperate with each other, to obtain as promptly as practicable all approvals, authorizations, terminations of applicable periods and clearances in connection with the Competition Law Filings, including (a) cooperating and consulting with each other and furnishing to each other or each other’s counsel information and reasonable assistance as each may request in connection with the preparation of any Competition Law Filing, (b) giving the other reasonable prior notice of, and the opportunity to review and discuss in advance (including considering in good faith the views of the other), any such Competition Law Filings to be made and, to the extent reasonably practicable, of any communication with, or any responses to inquiries or requests for additional information from, the FTC, the DOJ and any other governmental entity regarding such Competition Law Filings or the transactions contemplated by this Warrant, (c) permitting the other or the other’s counsel to participate in all communications and meetings with any governmental entity to the extent not prohibited by such governmental entity and (d) subject to clauses (b) and (c) of this Section 10, responding as promptly as

11. Entire Agreement; Parties in Interest. This Warrant, the Series A Securities Purchase Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement and the Series A Investors Rights Agreement constitute the entire agreement of, and supersede all other prior agreements and understandings (both written and oral and including, without limitation, that certain commitment letter and fee letter relating to the terms hereof) between, the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. In the event of any inconsistency between this Warrant, the Series A Securities Purchase Agreement and the Series A Investors Rights Agreement with respect to the subject matter hereof, this Warrant will control. This Warrant will be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of the Company and the Holder and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and nothing in this Warrant, express or implied, is intended to or will confer upon any other Person any rights, benefits or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Warrant.

12. Governing Law. This Warrant, and all Proceedings (whether based in contract, tort or statute) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Warrant or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Warrant, will be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the Laws of the State of New York without regard to the Laws of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction that would call for the application of the substantive Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York.

13. Jurisdiction. Each Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally, for itself and its property, submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or Federal court of the United Stated of America sitting, in each case in the Borough of Manhattan in New York City, and any appellate court from any thereof (such courts in such jurisdictional priority, the “Forum”), in any Proceeding (whether based in contract, tort or statute) based upon, arising out of or relating to this Warrant or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Warrant, or any transaction contemplated hereby, and agrees that all claims in respect of such Proceeding may be heard and determined in the Forum, and each of the Company and the Holder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (a) agrees not to commence any such Proceeding except in the Forum, (b) agrees that any claim in respect of any such Proceeding may be heard and determined in the Forum, (c) waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such Proceeding in the Forum, and (d) waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such Proceeding in the Forum. Each of the Company and Holder hereby agrees that service of summons, complaint or other process in connection with any Proceedings contemplated hereby may be made by registered or certified mail addressed to such Person at the address specified pursuant to Section 16, and that service so made will be effective as if personally made in the State of New York.

14. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE COMPANY AND THE HOLDER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDING (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) BETWEEN OR AMONG SUCH PERSONS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS WARRANT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

15. Remedies.

(a) Remedies Cumulative. Except as set forth in Section 15(a), all remedies available under this Warrant, at Law, in equity or otherwise will be deemed cumulative and not alternative or exclusive of other remedies, and the exercise by any party hereto of a particular remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

(b) Injunctive Relief. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Holder would be irreparably damaged if any of the provisions of this Warrant are not performed in accordance with their specific terms and that any breach of this Warrant by the Company could not be adequately compensated in all cases by monetary damages alone. Accordingly, in addition to any other right or remedy to which the Holder may be entitled, at Law or in equity, it will be entitled to enforce any provision of this Warrant by a decree of specific performance and temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of any of the provisions of this Warrant, without posting any bond or other undertaking.

The parties hereto further agree to replace such illegal, void, invalid or unenforceable provision of this Warrant with a legal, valid and enforceable provision that achieves, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such illegal, void, invalid or unenforceable provision.
