See also Section 4.1(b).

Credit Facility:    This Warrant to Purchase Common Stock (“Warrant”) is issued in connection with that certain Term Loan Credit Agreement dated as of the Issue Date by and among the Company, each of the Lenders from time to time party thereto and Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB, as Administrative Agent (as the same may from time to time be amended, modified, supplemented or restated, the “Loan Agreement”).
THIS WARRANT CERTIFIES THAT, for good and valuable consideration, [●] (together with any successor or permitted assignee or transferee of this Warrant or of any shares issued upon exercise hereof, the “Holder”) is entitled to purchase up to the number of duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares (the “Warrant Shares”) of the above-stated common stock (the “Common Stock”) of the above-named company (the “Company”) at the above-stated Warrant Price, all as set forth above and as adjusted pursuant to Section 2 of this Warrant, subject to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Warrant. Capitalized terms used, but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Loan Agreement.
SECTION 1. EXERCISE.
1.aMethod of Exercise. The Holder may at any time and from time to time prior to the Expiration Date exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, by delivering to the Company (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the Holder at the address of the Holder appearing on the books of the company) the original of this Warrant together with a duly executed Notice of Exercise in substantially the form attached hereto as Appendix 1 (such date of the Company’s receipt of the Notice of Exercise, the “Date of Exercise”) and, unless the Holder is exercising this Warrant pursuant to a cashless exercise set forth in Section 1.2, within three (3) Trading Days of the date such Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company, the Company shall have received payment of the aggregate Warrant Price of the Warrant Shares thereby purchased by wire transfer (to an account designated by the Company) or other form of payment acceptable to the Company. Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, if this Warrant was originally executed and/or delivered electronically, in no event shall the Holder be required to surrender or deliver an ink-signed paper copy of this Warrant in connection with its exercise hereof or of any rights hereunder, nor shall the Holder be required to surrender or deliver a paper or other physical copy of this Warrant in connection with any exercise hereof.



1.bCashless Exercise. On any exercise of this Warrant, in lieu of payment of the aggregate Warrant Price in the manner as specified in Section 1.1 above, but otherwise in accordance with the requirements of Section 1.1, the Holder may elect to receive Warrant Shares equal to the value of this Warrant, or portion hereof as to which this Warrant is being exercised. Thereupon, the Company shall issue to the Holder such number of duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable Warrant Shares as are computed using the following formula:
X = Y(A-B)/A
where:
X =    the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder;
Y =    the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is being exercised (inclusive of the Warrant Shares surrendered to the Company in payment of the aggregate Warrant Price);
A =    the fair market value (as determined pursuant to Section 1.3 below) of one Warrant Share; and
B =    the Warrant Price.
1.cFair Market Value. If the Company’s Common Stock is then listed on a Trading Market, the fair market value of a Warrant Share shall be the volume weighted average of the closing sales price of a share of Common Stock during the five (5) Trading Day period ending on the Trading Day prior to the applicable Date of Exercise (such period, the “Listed Averaging Period”). If the Company’s Common Stock is not then listed on a Trading Market, the fair market value of a Warrant Share shall be the average closing price per share of the Company’s Common Stock during the twenty (20) Trading Day period ending on the Trading Day prior to the applicable Date of Exercise as quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, the Pink OTC Markets or similar quotation system (such period, the “Unlisted Averaging Period”). If the Company’s Common Stock is not listed on a Trading Market and there have been no sales of the Company’s Common Stock on the OTC Bulletin Board, the Pink OTC Markets or similar quotation system or association during the period set forth in the preceding sentence, the fair market value of a Warrant Share shall be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company. For purposes of calculating the volume weighted average price over any multiple-day period, the number of shares of Common Stock shall be adjusted for any stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar transaction.
1.dDelivery of Certificate and New Warrant. After the Holder exercises this Warrant in the manner set forth in Section 1.1 or 1.2 above, the Warrant Shares issued to the Holder upon exercise shall be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system if the Company is then a participant in such system and the shares are eligible for resale by the Holder without volume or manner-of-sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144, and otherwise by book-entry or physical delivery to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that is three (3) Trading Days after the latest of (A) the end of the Listed Averaging Period or the Unlisted Averaging Period, as applicable, (B) surrender of this Warrant (if required), and (C) payment of the aggregate Warrant Price as set forth above (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”). This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised on the first date on which all of the foregoing have been delivered to the Company. The Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been issued, and the Holder or any other Person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a
    2



holder of record of such Warrant Shares for all purposes, as of the date the Warrant has been exercised, with payment to the Company of the Warrant Price and all taxes (other than transfer taxes) required to be paid by the Holder. If this Warrant has not been fully exercised and has not expired, a new warrant of like tenor representing the Warrant Shares not so acquired.
1.eReplacement of Warrant. On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form, substance and amount to the Company or, in the case of mutilation, on surrender of this Warrant to the Company for cancellation, the Company shall, within a reasonable time, execute and deliver to the Holder, in lieu of this Warrant, a new warrant of like tenor and amount.
1.fCharges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares or by book-entry registration shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such certificate or book-entry registration, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates or book-entry registration shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax or governmental charge which may be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of Warrant Shares in a name other than that of the Holder of the Warrant to be exercised, and no such issue or delivery shall be made unless and until the Holder requesting such issue 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; provided, further, that in the event certificates or book-entry registration for Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto as Appendix 2 duly executed by the Holder.
1.gClosing of Books. The Company will not close its stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof.
1.hRescission Rights. If the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder certificates or book-entry registration representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 1.4 by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then, the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.
SECTION 2. ADJUSTMENTS TO THE WARRANT SHARES AND WARRANT PRICE.
1.iStock Dividends, Splits, Etc. If the Company declares or pays a dividend or distribution on the outstanding shares of the Common Stock payable in securities or property (other than cash), then upon exercise of this Warrant, for each Warrant Share acquired, the Holder shall receive, without additional cost to the Holder, the total number and kind of securities and property which the Holder would have received had the Holder owned the Warrant Shares of record as of the date the dividend or distribution occurred. If the Company subdivides the outstanding shares of the Common Stock by reclassification or otherwise into a greater number of shares, the number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder shall be proportionately increased and the Warrant Price shall be proportionately decreased. If the outstanding shares of the Common Stock are combined or consolidated, by reclassification or otherwise, into a lesser number of shares, the Warrant Price shall be proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Shares shall be proportionately decreased.
1.jReclassification, Exchange, Combinations or Substitution. Upon any event whereby all of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock are reclassified, exchanged,
    3



combined, substituted, or replaced for, into, with or by Company securities of a different class and/or series, then from and after the consummation of such event, this Warrant will be exercisable for the number, class and series of Company securities that the Holder would have received had the Warrant Shares been outstanding on and as of the consummation of such event, and subject to further adjustment thereafter from time to time in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. The provisions of this Section 2.2 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, exchanges, combinations substitutions, replacements or other similar events.
1.kRecord Date. In case the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (A) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in Common Stock; warrants or other rights or options to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock (collectively, “Options”); or any securities (directly or indirectly) convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, but excluding Options (collectively, “Convertible Securities”), or (B) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, then such record date shall be deemed to be the date of the issue or sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may be; provided, that if before the distribution to its holders of Common Stock the Company legally abandons its plan to pay or deliver such dividend, distribution, subscription, or purchase rights, then thereafter no adjustment shall be required by the taking of such record and any such adjustment previously made in respect thereof shall be rescinded and annulled.
1.lTreasury Shares. The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any given time shall not include shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company or any of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, and the disposition of any such shares (other than the cancellation or retirement thereof or the transfer of such shares among the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries) shall be considered an issue or sale of Common Stock for the purpose of this Section 2.4.
1.mOther Dividends and Distributions. If the Company shall, at any time or from time to time after the Issue Date, make or declare, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or any other distribution payable in securities of the Company (other than a dividend or distribution of shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities in respect of outstanding shares of Common Stock), cash or other property, then, and in each such event, provision shall be made so that the Holder shall receive upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant, in addition to the number of Warrant Shares receivable thereupon, 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 or converted in full into Warrant Shares on the 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, cash, or other property receivable by them as aforesaid during such period, giving application to all adjustments called for during such period under this Section 2 with respect to the rights of the Holder; provided, that no such provision shall be made if the Holder receives, simultaneously with the distribution to the holders of Common Stock, a dividend or other distribution of such securities, cash, or other property in an amount equal to the amount of such securities, cash, or other property as the Holder would have received if the Warrant had been exercised in full into Warrant Shares on the date of such event.
1.nFundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, a Fundamental Transaction occurs, then, upon exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the
    4



surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.6 pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the Holder, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant which is exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an exercise price which applies the Warrant Price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the value of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of shares of capital stock and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Warrant referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Company or the Successor Entity, as applicable), and, as applicable, the Company or the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally, may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant with the same effect as if, as applicable, the Company or such Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally, had been named as the Company herein.
1.oNo Fractional Share. No fractional Warrant Share shall be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant and the number of Warrant Shares to be issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Warrant Share. If a fractional Warrant Share interest arises upon any exercise of the Warrant, the Company shall eliminate such fractional Warrant Share interest by paying the Holder in cash the amount computed by multiplying the fractional interest by (i) the fair market value (as determined in accordance with Section 1.3 above) of a full Warrant Share, less (ii) the then-effective Warrant Price.
1.pNo Impairment. The Company shall not, directly or indirectly, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or other governing or organizational documents, or through reorganization, consolidation, merger, dissolution, sale of assets, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (ii) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant and (iii) obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.
