Femasys Inc.
Senior Secured Convertible Note
|
Issuance Date: [•], 2025
|
Original Principal Amount: U.S. $[•]
|
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Femasys Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby promises to pay to
________________________ or registered assigns (“Holder”) the amount set forth above as the Original Principal Amount (as reduced pursuant to the terms hereof pursuant to redemption, conversion or otherwise,
the “Principal”) when due, whether upon the Maturity Date or upon acceleration, redemption or otherwise (in each case in accordance with the terms hereof) and to pay interest (“Interest”) on any outstanding Principal at the applicable Interest Rate (as defined below) from the date set forth above as the Issuance Date (the “Issuance Date”)
until the same becomes due and payable, as set forth herein. This Senior Secured Convertible Note (including all Senior Secured Convertible Notes issued in exchange, transfer or replacement hereof, this “Note”)
is issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of November 3, 2025, by and among the Company and the Holder, as amended from time to time. Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section 28.
1.
PAYMENTS OF PRINCIPAL. On the Maturity Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash representing all outstanding and unpaid Principal,
accrued and unpaid Interest and accrued and unpaid Late Charges (as defined in
Section 21(c) hereof). Other than as specifically permitted by this Note, the Company may not prepay any portion of the
outstanding Principal, accrued and unpaid Interest or accrued and unpaid Late Charges on Principal and Interest;
provided,
however, that beginning on the seven and one half year anniversary of the Issuance Date and upon not less
than ten (10) days prior written notice to the Holder, the Company, at its option, may prepay the outstanding Principal, accrued and unpaid Interest and applicable Late Charges at a premium price equal to 112% of the then-outstanding principal.
2.
INTEREST; INTEREST RATE.
(a) Interest on this Note (the “
Stated Interest”) shall accrue and be payable annually in arrears
commencing on the Issuance Date and shall be computed on the basis of a
360-day year and twelve
30-day months. Accrued but unpaid interest shall be payable in kind annually on each Interest
Date through the addition of the Stated Interest to the then outstanding Principal Amount in accordance with this
Section 2 (“
PIK Interest”). PIK Interest
shall be payable in kind to the Holder of this Note on each such Interest Date by capitalizing such PIK Interest and adding it to (and thereby increasing) the outstanding Principal Amount of this Note. For the avoidance of doubt, effective as of,
and from and after, any Interest Date, the outstanding Principal Amount of this Note shall be increased by the amount of PIK Interest paid in kind on such Interest Date for all purposes of this Note.
(b) From and after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Interest Rate shall automatically be increased to ten percent (10.0%) per annum
(the “Default Rate”). In the event that such Event of Default is subsequently cured (and no other Event of Default then exists, including, without limitation, for the Company’s failure to pay such Interest at
the Default Rate on the applicable Interest Date), the Default Rate shall cease to be effective as of the date of such cure; provided that the Interest as calculated and unpaid at such increased rate during the continuance of such Event of
Default shall continue to apply to the extent relating to the days after the occurrence of such Event of Default through and including the date of such cure of such Event of Default.
3.
CONVERSION OF NOTES. At any time after the Issuance Date, this Note shall be convertible into validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of
Common Stock (as defined below), on the terms and conditions set forth in this
Section 3.
(a)
Conversion Right. Subject to the provisions of
Section 3(d), at any time or
times on or after the Issuance Date, the Holder, at its option, shall be entitled to convert all, or from time to time, part of the outstanding and unpaid Conversion Amount (as defined below) into validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable
shares of Common Stock in accordance with
Section 3(c), at the Conversion Rate (as defined below). The Company shall not issue any fraction of a share of Common Stock upon any conversion. If the
issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Common Stock, the Company shall round such fraction of a share of Common Stock down to the nearest whole share. The Company shall pay any and all transfer, stamp, issuance and
similar taxes, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of the Transfer Agent (as defined below)) that may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of any Conversion
Amount.
(b)
Conversion Rate. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any Conversion Amount pursuant to
Section 3(a) shall be determined by dividing
(x) such Conversion Amount by
(y) the Conversion Price (the “
Conversion Rate”).
(i) “
Conversion Amount” means the sum of
(x) the portion of the
Principal to be converted, redeemed or otherwise with respect to which this determination is being made,
provided that such amount shall not be less than $25,000,
(y) all accrued and unpaid Interest with respect
to such portion of the Principal amount and any accrued and unpaid Late Charges with respect to such portion of such Principal and such Interest, and (z) any other unpaid amounts that are payable to the Holder pursuant to the Transaction Documents,
if any.
(ii) “
Conversion Price” means, as of any Conversion Date or other date of determination, $0.73,
subject to adjustment as provided herein.
(c) Mechanics of Conversion.
(i)
Optional Conversion. To convert any Conversion Amount into shares of Common Stock on any date (a “
Conversion Date”), the Holder shall deliver (whether via electronic mail or otherwise), for receipt on or prior to
12:00 p.m., New York time, on such date, a copy of an executed notice of conversion in
the form attached hereto as
Exhibit I (each, a “
Conversion Notice”) to the Company. If required by
Section 3(c)(iii), within two
(2) Trading Days following a conversion of this Note as aforesaid, the Holder shall surrender this Note to a nationally recognized overnight delivery service for delivery to the Company (or an indemnification undertaking
with respect to this Note in the case of its loss, theft or destruction as contemplated by
Section 15(b). On or before the first (1st) Trading Day following the date of receipt of a Conversion Notice, the
Company shall transmit by electronic mail an acknowledgment, in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit II, of confirmation of receipt of such Conversion Notice and representation as to whether such shares of Common Stock may then be resold
without limitation pursuant to Rule
144 or an effective and available registration statement to the Holder and the Company’s transfer agent (the “
Transfer Agent”) which
confirmation shall constitute an instruction to the Transfer Agent to process such Conversion Notice in accordance with the terms herein. On or before the second (2nd) Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received a properly
completed Conversion Notice (or such earlier date as required pursuant to the 1934 Act or other applicable law, rule or regulation for the settlement of a trade initiated on the applicable Conversion Date of such shares of Common Stock issuable
pursuant to such Conversion Notice) (the “
Share Delivery Deadline”), the Company shall
(1)
provided that the Transfer Agent is participating in The Depository Trust
Company’s (“
DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program (“
FAST”) and such shares of Common Stock are eligible to be resold pursuant to Rule
144 or an effective registration statement, credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled pursuant to such conversion to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with
DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian system or
(2) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in FAST or such shares of Common Stock are not eligible to be resold pursuant to Rule
144
or an effective registration statement, upon the request of the Holder, issue and deliver (via reputable overnight courier) to the address as specified in the Conversion Notice, a certificate, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee,
for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled pursuant to such conversion. If this Note is physically surrendered for conversion pursuant to
Section 3(c)(iii) and
the outstanding Principal of this Note is greater than the Principal portion of the Conversion Amount being converted, then the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than two (2) Business Days after receipt of this Note and at
its own expense, issue and deliver to the Holder (or its designee) a new Note (in accordance with
Section 15(d)) representing the outstanding Principal not converted. The Person or Persons entitled to
receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion of this Note shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock on the Conversion Date to the extent permitted by applicable law. The
Conversion Amount shall be deemed converted upon delivery of the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled to pursuant to such conversion regardless of any failure by the Holder to surrender this Note. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Note or the Registration Rights Agreement, after the effective date of the Registration Statement (as such term is defined in the Registration Rights Agreement, the “
Registration
Statement”) and prior to the Holder’s receipt of the notice of a Grace Period (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), the Company shall cause the Transfer Agent to deliver unlegended shares of Common Stock to the Holder (or its
designee) in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) with respect to which the Holder has entered into a contract for sale, and delivered a copy of the prospectus included as part of the
particular Registration Statement to the extent applicable, and for which the Holder has not yet settled.
(ii)
Company’s Failure to Timely Convert. If the Company shall fail, for any reason or for no reason (other than due to the action or
inaction on the part of the Holder), on or prior to the applicable Share Delivery Deadline, either
(I) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in FAST, to issue and deliver to the Holder (or its designee) a
certificate for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled and register such shares of Common Stock on the Company’s share register or, if the Transfer Agent is participating in FAST and such shares of Common Stock are
eligible to be resold without limitation pursuant to Rule
144 or an effective registration statement, to credit the balance account of the Holder or the Holder’s designee with DTC for such number of shares of Common
Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s conversion of this Note (as the case may be) or (II) if the Registration Statement covering the resale of the shares of Common Stock that are the subject of the Conversion Notice (the “
Unavailable Conversion Shares”) is not available for the resale of such Unavailable Conversion Shares and the Company fails to promptly, but in no event later than as required pursuant to the Registration Rights
Agreement
(x) so notify the Holder and
(y) deliver the shares of Common Stock electronically without any restrictive legend by crediting such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to
which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such conversion to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal At Custodian system (the event described in the immediately foregoing clause (ii) is hereinafter
referred as a “
Notice Failure” and together with the event described in clause (i) above, a “
Conversion Failure”), and if on or after such Share Delivery Deadline the
Holder acquires (in an open market transaction, stock loan or otherwise) shares of Common Stock corresponding to all or any portion of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion that the Holder is entitled to receive from
the Company and has not received from the Company in connection with such Conversion Failure or Notice Failure, as applicable (a “
Buy-In”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Holder, the
Company shall, within two (2) Business Days after receipt of the Holder’s request and in the Holder’s discretion, either: (I) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, stock
loan costs and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so acquired (including, without limitation, by any other Person in respect, or on behalf, of the Holder) (the “
Buy-In Price”),
at which point the Company’s obligation to so issue and deliver such certificate (and to issue such shares of Common Stock) or credit the balance account of such Holder or such Holder’s designee, as applicable, with DTC for the number of shares of
Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s conversion hereunder (as the case may be) (and to issue such shares of Common Stock) shall terminate, or (II) promptly honor its obligation to so issue and deliver to the Holder a
certificate or certificates representing such shares of Common Stock or credit the balance account of such Holder or such Holder’s designee, as applicable, with DTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the
Holder’s conversion hereunder (as the case may be) and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (x) such number of shares of Common Stock multiplied by (y) the lowest Closing Sale
Price of the Common Stock on any Trading Day during the period commencing on the date of the applicable Conversion Notice and ending on the date of such issuance and payment under this clause (II) (the “
Buy-In
Payment Amount”). Nothing shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity, including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to
the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock (or to electronically deliver such shares of Common Stock) upon the conversion of this Note as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
(iii)
Registration; Book-Entry. The Company shall maintain a register (the “
Register”) for the recordation of the names and
addresses of the holders of each Note and the principal amount of the Notes held by such holders (the “
Registered Notes”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent
manifest error. The Company and the holders of the Notes shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of a Note for all purposes (including, without limitation, the right to receive payments of Principal and Interest
hereunder) notwithstanding notice to the contrary. A Registered Note may be assigned, transferred or sold in whole or in part only by registration of such assignment or sale on the Register. Upon its receipt of a written request, which shall
contain all necessary information with respect to the name, address and contact information with respect to the assignee or transferee, sent via electronic mail with confirmation of receipt received, to assign, transfer or sell all or part of any
Registered Note by the holder thereof, the Company shall record the information contained therein in the Register and issue one or more new Registered Notes in the same aggregate principal amount as the principal amount of the surrendered
Registered Note to the designated assignee or transferee pursuant to
Section 15,
provided that if the Company does not so record an assignment, transfer or sale (as the case may be) of all or part of any Registered Note within two
(2) Business Days of such a request, then the Register shall be automatically deemed updated to reflect such assignment, transfer or sale (as the case may be). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this
Section 3, following conversion of any portion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Company unless
(A)
the full Conversion Amount represented by this Note is being converted (in which event this Note shall be delivered to the Company following conversion thereof as contemplated by
Section 3(c)(i))
or
(B) the Holder has provided the Company with prior written notice (which notice may be included in a Conversion Notice) requesting reissuance of this Note upon physical surrender of this Note. The Holder and the
Company shall maintain records showing the Principal, Interest and Late Charges converted and/or paid (as the case may be) and the dates of such conversions and/or payments (as the case may be) or shall use such other method, reasonably
satisfactory to the Holder and the Company, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon conversion. If the Company does not update the Register to record such Principal, Interest and Late Charges converted and/or paid (as the case may
be) and the dates of such conversions and/or payments (as the case may be) within two (2) Business Days of such occurrence, then the Register shall be automatically deemed updated to reflect such occurrence.
(iv)
Pro Rata Conversion; Disputes. In the event that the Company receives a Conversion Notice from more than one holder of Notes for
the same Conversion Date and the Company can convert some, but not all, of such portions of the Notes submitted for conversion, the Company, subject to
Section 3(d), shall convert from each
holder of Notes electing to have Notes converted on such date a pro rata amount of such holder’s portion of its Notes submitted for conversion based on the principal amount of Notes submitted for conversion on such date by such holder relative to
the aggregate principal amount of all Notes submitted for conversion on such date. In the event of a dispute as to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable to the Holder in connection with a conversion of this Note, the Company shall issue to
the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock not in dispute and resolve such dispute in accordance with
Section 20.
(d) Limitations on Conversions.
(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note, the Company shall not effect any exercise of this Note, and the Holder
shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Note, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to the exercise or conversion of the Warrants and
Notes would exceed 19.99% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding as of the date of the Securities Purchase Agreement, unless and until the Company has obtained the approval of its stockholders as required by the applicable rules and regulations
of the Principal Market, including, as applicable, Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d); provided that the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such stockholder approval as soon as reasonably practicable to the extent necessary.
(ii)
Further Limitations on Conversions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note, this Note shall not be
convertible by the Holder hereof, and the Company shall not affect any conversion of this Note or otherwise issue any shares of Common Stock pursuant hereto, to the extent (but only to the extent) that after giving effect to such conversion or
other share issuance hereunder the Holder together with its Attribution Parties would beneficially own in excess of [
4.99][9.99]
1% (the “
Maximum Percentage”) of the Common Stock. To the extent the above limitation applies, the determination of whether this Note shall be convertible (vis-à -vis other
convertible, exercisable or exchangeable securities owned by the Holder or any of its affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which such securities shall be convertible, exercisable or exchangeable (as among all such securities owned by the
Holder and its affiliates and Attribution Parties ) shall, subject to such Maximum Percentage limitation, be determined on the basis of the first submission to the Company for conversion, exercise or exchange (as the case may be). No prior
inability to convert this Note, or to issue shares of Common Stock, pursuant to this paragraph shall have any effect on the applicability of the provisions of this paragraph with respect to any subsequent determination of convertibility. For
purposes of this paragraph, beneficial ownership and all determinations and calculations (including, without limitation, with respect to calculations of percentage ownership) shall be determined in accordance with Section
13(d)
of the 1934 Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section
13(d) of the 1934 Act and
the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The provisions of this paragraph shall be implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this paragraph to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be
defective or inconsistent with the intended Maximum Percentage beneficial ownership limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such Maximum Percentage limitation. The limitations
contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor Holder of this Note. By written notice to the Company, at any time the Holder may increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage specified in such notice, subject to
compliance with
Section 3(d);
provided, that
(i) any such increase will not be effective until the sixty-first (61
st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company, and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder sending such notice and not to any other holder of Notes.
1 As elected by Lender.
(e)
Mandatory Conversion. The Company shall have the right, at its sole discretion, to require the Holder to convert all, or any part, of the Conversion Amount of
this Note, as designated in a written notice to the Holder (the “
Mandatory Conversion Notice”) into fully paid, validly issued and nonassessable shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms of
Section
3(c) herein at the Conversion Rate as of the applicable date (a “
Mandatory Conversion”), if at any time
(i) the Registration
Statement required to be filed pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement is effective, (ii) for the immediately preceding thirty
(30) consecutive trading days, the VWAP has exceeded 450% of the then-effective
Conversion Price on each such trading day, (iii) the total daily trading volume of the Common Stock is at least $1,500,000.00, and (iv) the Equity Conditions are satisfied;
provided, that no Event of Default or event which with the passage
of time or giving of notice could become an Event of Default has occurred. The Mandatory Conversion Notice shall specify the aggregate principal amount of the Note which is subject to Mandatory Conversion. Upon the Company's delivery of a Mandatory
Conversion Notice to the Holder, the Mandatory Conversion Trigger Conditions shall be deemed irrevocably satisfied and locked in for purposes of such Mandatory Conversion, and the Holder's obligation to convert shall not be affected or extinguished
by any subsequent failure of any of the Mandatory Conversion Trigger Conditions to be satisfied at any time following delivery of the Mandatory Conversion Notice. If, as upon the delivery of a Mandatory Conversion Notice, the conversion of all or
any portion of the Conversion Amount specified in the Mandatory Conversion Notice would be prohibited by the limitations set forth in
Section 3(d) (the “
Ownership Blocker Provisions”), then the Holder
shall convert that portion of the Conversion Amount that may be converted without violating the Ownership Blocker Provisions (the “
Permitted Conversion Amount”) on the Mandatory Conversion Date and the Holder
shall deliver a Conversion Notice to the Company to convert the maximum portion of the remaining unconverted Conversion Amount that may be converted without violating the Ownership Blocker Provisions (taking into account any sales, transfers, or
dispositions of Common Stock by the Holder and its Attribution Parties since the most recent conversion) on a rolling basis thereafter.
(f)
Pre-funded Warrant Election. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Holder would be prohibited from
converting this Note in whole or in part pursuant to the beneficial ownership limitation set forth in this
Section 3, then, in lieu of such conversion, the Holder may elect, by written notice to the Company, to receive, upon payment of the
Conversion Price otherwise due in respect of the portion of this Note that would exceed such limitation less $0.01 per share
, a pre-funded warrant (each, a “
Pre-Funded Warrant”)
in substantially the form attached hereto as
Exhibit III exercisable for the number of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be issuable upon such conversion.
4.

Event of Default. Each of the following events shall constitute an “
Event of Default”;
provided,
however, that any default, redemption or acceleration under the November 2023 Notes shall not constitute an Event of Default hereunder:

the Company is using commercially reasonable efforts to cure such suspension or failure and to regain listing or trading on the Principal Market or another eligible market;

Note by delivering written notice thereof (the “Event of Default Redemption Notice”) to the Company within 30 days of the earlier of such Holder’s receipt of an Event of Default Notice and the Holder becoming
aware of an Event of Default, which Event of Default Redemption Notice shall indicate the portion of this Note the Holder is electing to redeem. Each portion of this Note subject to redemption by the Company pursuant to this Section 4(b)
shall be redeemed by the Company at a price equal to 100% of the Conversion Amount on the date immediately preceding such Event of Default (the “Event of Default Redemption
Price”). To the extent redemptions required by this Section 4(b) are deemed or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prepayments of this Note by the Company, such redemptions shall be deemed to be voluntary
prepayments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4(b), but subject to Section 3(d), until the Event of Default Redemption Price (together with any Late Charges
thereon) is paid in full, the Conversion Amount submitted for redemption under this Section 4(b) (together with any Late Charges thereon) may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into shares of Common Stock pursuant to the terms
of this Note.
(c) Mandatory Redemption upon Bankruptcy Event of Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, and notwithstanding any conversion that is then required
or in process, upon any Event of Default pursuant to Sections 4(a)(viii), 4(a)(ix), or 4(a)(x) (a “Bankruptcy Event of Default”), whether occurring prior to or following the Maturity
Date, the Company shall immediately pay to the Holder an amount in cash representing all outstanding Principal, accrued and unpaid Interest and accrued and unpaid Late Charges on such Principal and Interest, in addition to any and all other amounts
due hereunder, without the requirement for any notice or demand or other action by the Holder or any other person or entity, provided that the Holder may, in its sole discretion, waive such right to receive payment upon a Bankruptcy Event of
Default, in whole or in part, and any such waiver shall not affect any other rights of the Holder hereunder, including any other rights in respect of such Bankruptcy Event of Default, any right to conversion, and any right to payment of the Event
of Default Redemption Price or any other redemption price, as applicable.
5. SECURITY.
(a)
Grant of Security Interest. To secure the payment in full and performance of all of the Obligations
(as defined below), the Company hereby grants to Pointillist Global Macro Series of Pointillist Partners LLC, as payee representative and collateral agent (in such capacities, including any successor thereto, the “
Payee
Representative”), for itself and on behalf of the Payees, a continuing security interest in all of the following property of the Company, whether tangible or intangible, real or personal, now or hereafter owned, existing, acquired or
arising and wherever now or hereafter located, and whether or not eligible for lending purposes, including:

general intangibles (including all intellectual property, contracts rights, payment intangibles, security interests, security deposits and rights to indemnification); (iii) all inventory; (iv) all goods, including equipment, vehicles and fixtures;
(v) all investment property, including all rights, privileges, authority, and powers of the Company as an owner or as a holder of any equity interests pledged by the Company hereunder, including all economic rights, all

investment property; (vi) all deposit accounts, bank accounts, deposits, money and cash; (vii) all letter-of-credit rights; (viii) all commercial tort claims; (ix) all supporting obligations;

and replacements, products and proceeds of the foregoing property, and all of the Company’s books and records relating to any of the foregoing and to the Company’s business (collectively, the “
Collateral”);
provided,
that, notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, prior to the date that is the fifth anniversary of the Issuance Date, neither the Payee Representative nor any Payee shall
take any actions to perfect a security interest on any assets located outside of the United States or any Material Foreign Jurisdiction (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, the filing and/or recording of any UCC financing statements in the
United States or intellectual property security agreement filings at the United States Patent and Trademark Office or United States Copyright Office);
provided, further, that, notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the
contrary, no “intent-to-use” applications for registration of Trademarks filed under Section 1(b) of the Trademark Act, prior to the filing and acceptance of a statement of use or amendment to allege use shall constitute Collateral. For the
purposes hereof, “
Material Foreign Jurisdiction” means any non-U.S. jurisdiction in which the value of the Collateral held in such jurisdiction is equal to or greater than [30]% of the value of the Company’s
total consolidated assets (as estimated in good faith by the Company) as of the date of the Company’s most recent financial statements contained in a Form
10-K or
10-Q. For purposes hereof,
“
Obligations” means principal, interest, fees and all other amounts owing by the Company under this Note (including any interest and fees that accrue after the commencement by or against the Company or a
substantial part of the property or assets of the Company (including any direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries) of any proceeding under any bankruptcy laws, regardless of whether such interest and fees are allowed claims in such proceeding)
and all fees, costs and expenses incurred by the Payee Representative and the Payees under or in respect of this Note. Capitalized terms used in this
Section 5(a) that are defined in the Uniform
Commercial Code as in effect in the State of New York (the “
UCC”) shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the UCC.
(b) Further Assurances. The Company shall, at its own cost and expense, promptly and duly take, execute, acknowledge and deliver (or cause each other applicable
person to take, execute, acknowledge and deliver) all such further acts (including the filing and recording of UCC financing statements, mortgages and intellectual property security agreement filings at the United States Patent and Trademark Office
or United States Copyright Office, in each case, as requested by the Payee Representative), documents, agreements and instruments as may from time to time be necessary or desirable or as Payee Representative may from time to time reasonably require
in order to establish, create, preserve and perfect a first priority lien in favor of Payee Representative in all the Collateral from time to time owned by the Company. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company shall, at its own cost and expense,
promptly and duly take, execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Payee Representative (or cause each such other applicable person to take, executed, acknowledge and deliver) all promissory notes, security agreements, subordination and intercreditor
agreements and other agreements, mortgages, instruments and documents, in each case in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Payee Representative, as Payee Representative may reasonably request from time to time to perfect and maintain Payee
Representative’s security interests in the Collateral.
(c) UCC Financing Statements. The Company authorizes the Payee Representative to file, transmit or communicate, as applicable, from time to time, UCC financing
statements, along with amendments and modifications thereto, in all filing offices selected by the Payee Representative, listing the Company as the “debtor” and the Payee Representative as the “secured party” and describing the Collateral covered
thereby in such manner as Payee Representative may elect, including using descriptions such as “all personal property of debtor”, “all assets of debtor” or words of similar effect, in each case, without the Company’s signature.
(d)
Remedies with respect to Collateral. Without limiting any rights or remedies the Payee Representative or any Payee may have
pursuant to this Note, under applicable law or otherwise, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default:
(i)
Any and All Remedies. Payee Representative may take any and all actions and avail itself of any and all rights and remedies
available to Payee Representative under this Note, under law or in equity, and the rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by applicable law or otherwise.
(ii)
Collections; Modifications of Terms. Payee Representative may, but shall be under no obligation to:
(A)
notify all appropriate parties that the Collateral, or any part thereof, has been assigned to, or is subject to a security interest in favor of, Payee Representative;
(B) demand, sue for, collect and give receipts for
and take all necessary or desirable steps to collect any Collateral or proceeds in its or the Company’s name, and apply any such collections against the Obligations as Payee Representative may elect;
(C) take control of
any Collateral and any cash and non-cash proceeds of any Collateral;
(D) enforce, compromise, extend, renew settle or discharge any rights or benefits of the Company with respect to or in and to any Collateral or deal
with the Collateral as the Payee Representative may deem advisable; and
(E) make any compromises, exchanges, substitutions or surrenders of Collateral as the Payee Representative deems necessary or proper in its
reasonable discretion, including extending the time of payment, permitting payment in installments or otherwise modifying the terms or rights relating to any of the Collateral, all of which may be effected without notice to, consent of, or any
other action of the Company and without otherwise discharging or affecting the Obligations, the Collateral or the security interests granted to Payee Representative under this Note.
(iii)
Insurance. The Payee Representative may file proofs of loss and claim with respect to any of the Collateral with the appropriate
insurer and may endorse in its own and the Company’s name any checks or drafts constituting proceeds of insurance. Any proceeds of insurance received by Payee Representative may be applied by Payee Representative against payment of all or any
portion of the Obligations as Payee Representative may elect in its reasonable discretion.
(iv) Possession and Assembly of Collateral. Payee Representative may take possession of the Collateral. Upon Payee
Representative’s reasonable request, the Company shall assemble the Collateral and make it available to Payee Representative at one or more places designated by Payee Representative.
(e) Disposition of Collateral.
(i) Payee Representative may, without demand, advertising or notice, all of which the Company hereby waives (except as the same may be required by the UCC or
other applicable law and is not waivable under the UCC or such other applicable law), at any time or times in one or more public or private sales or other dispositions, for cash, on credit or otherwise, at such prices and upon such terms as
determined by Payee Representative (provided such price and terms are commercially reasonable within the meaning of the UCC to the extent such sale or other disposition is subject to the UCC requirements that such sale or other disposition must be
commercially reasonable),
(A) sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of any and all Collateral and/or
(B) deliver and grant options to a third party to purchase, lease, license or
otherwise dispose of any and all Collateral. Payee Representative may sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of any Collateral in its then-present condition or following any preparation or processing deemed necessary by Payee Representative in
its reasonable discretion. Payee Representative and any agent or contractor, in conjunction with any such sale, may augment the inventory with other goods (all of which other goods shall remain the sole property of Payee Representative or such
agent or contractor), and any amounts realized from the sale of such goods which constitute augmentations to the inventory (net of an allocable share of the costs and expenses incurred in their disposition) shall be the sole property of Payee
Representative or such agent or contractor and neither the Company nor any person claiming under or in right of the Company shall have any interest therein. Payee Representative may be the purchaser at any such public or private sale or other
disposition of Collateral, and in such case Payee Representative may make payment of all or any portion of the purchase price therefor by the application of all or any portion of the Obligations to the purchase price payable in connection with such
sale or disposition. Payee Representative may, if it deems it reasonable, postpone or adjourn any sale or other disposition of any Collateral from time to time by an announcement at the time and place of the sale or disposition to be so postponed
or adjourned without being required to give a new notice of sale or disposition;
provided that Payee Representative shall provide the Company with written notice of the time and place of such postponed or adjourned sale or disposition. The
Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that Payee Representative’s compliance with any requirements of applicable law in connection with a sale, lease, license or other disposition of Collateral will not be considered to adversely affect the
commercial reasonableness of any sale, lease, license or other disposition of such Collateral.
A. The Company shall remain liable for all amounts of the Obligations remaining unpaid as a result of any deficiency of the proceeds of the sale, lease, license or other
disposition of Collateral after such proceeds are applied to the Obligations as provided in this Note.
B. Payee Representative may sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of the Collateral without giving any warranties and may specifically disclaim any and all
warranties, including but not limited to warranties of title, possession, merchantability and fitness. The Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that Payee Representative’s disclaimer of any and all warranties in connection with a sale, lease,
license or other disposition of Collateral will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any such disposition of the Collateral. If Payee Representative sells, leases, licenses or otherwise disposes of any of the
Collateral on credit, the Company will be credited only with payments actually made in cash by the recipient of such Collateral and received by Payee Representative and applied to the Obligations.
(f)
Election of Remedies. Payee Representative shall have the right in Payee Representative’s sole discretion to determine which
rights, security, liens or remedies Payee Representative may at any time pursue, foreclose upon, relinquish, subordinate, modify or take any other action with respect to, without in any way impairing, modifying or affecting any of Payee
Representative’s other rights, security, liens or remedies with respect to any Collateral or any of Payee Representative’s rights or remedies under this Note.
(g)
Payee Representative’s Obligations. The Company agrees that Payee Representative shall not have any obligation to preserve rights
to any Collateral against prior parties or to marshal any Collateral of any kind for the benefit of any other creditor of the Company or any other person. Payee Representative shall not be responsible to the Company or any other person for loss or
damage resulting from Payee Representative’s failure to enforce its liens or collect any Collateral or proceeds or any monies due or to become due under the Obligations or any other liability or obligation of the Company to Payee Representative.
(h)
Waiver of Rights by the Company. Except as otherwise expressly provided for in this Note or by non-waivable applicable law, the Company waives
(i) presentment, demand and protest and notice of presentment, dishonor, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, protest, default, nonpayment, maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension or
renewal of any or all commercial paper, accounts, contract rights, documents, instruments, chattel paper and guaranties at any time held by Payee Representative on which the Company may in any way be liable, and hereby ratifies and confirms
whatever Payee Representative may do in this regard, (ii) all rights to notice and a hearing prior to Payee Representative’s taking possession or control of, or to Payee Representative’s replevy, attachment or levy upon, the Collateral or any bond
or security which might be required by any court prior to allowing Payee Representative to exercise any of its remedies and (iii) the benefit of all valuation, appraisal, marshaling and exemption laws. If any notice of a proposed sale or other
disposition of any part of the Collateral is required under applicable law, the Company agrees that ten (10) calendar days’ prior notice of the time and place of any public sale and of the time after which any private sale or other disposition is
to be made is commercially reasonable.
6.
RIGHTS UPON FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTION.
(a)
Fundamental Transaction Payment.
Upon the consummation of a Fundamental Transaction, the Company
shall redeem all, but not less than all, of the Notes then outstanding in an amount equal to the sum of (i) the Principal amount of the Notes being redeemed and accrued and unpaid Interest, Late Charges on the Principal and Interest of the Notes
through the date of the Fundamental Transaction plus (ii) (1) 200% of the principal amount outstanding being redeemed if the Fundamental Transaction occurs on or prior to the first anniversary of the First Closing Date; (2) 150% of the principal
amount outstanding being redeemed if the Fundamental Transaction occurs after the first anniversary of the First Closing Date and on or prior to the second anniversary of the First Closing Date; (3) 100% of the principal amount outstanding being
redeemed if the Fundamental Transaction occurs after the second anniversary of the First Closing Date and on or prior to the third anniversary of the First Closing Date; (4) 50% of the principal amount outstanding being redeemed if the Fundamental
Transaction occurs after the third anniversary of the First Closing Date and on or prior to the fourth anniversary of the First Closing Date; and (5) 25% of the principal amount outstanding being redeemed if the Fundamental Transaction occurs after
the fourth anniversary of the First Closing Date and on or prior to the fifth anniversary of the First Closing Date (such amount, the “
Fundamental Transaction Premium” and, together with (i), (the “
Fundamental Transaction Payment”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Fundamental Transaction Premium after the fifth anniversary of the First Closing Date shall be zero. The Company shall provide the Holders with
notice (the “
Fundamental Transaction Notice”) of the redemption at least fifteen (15) days prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction and simultaneously with consummation of such Fundamental
Transaction, the Company shall make such Fundamental Transaction Payment in cash in full to each such Holder. In connection with any Fundamental Transaction where the Common Stock is converted into, or exchanged for, or represents solely the right
to receive, other securities, cash or other property, or any combination of the foregoing (such Fundamental Transaction, a “
Common Stock Fundamental Transaction,” and such other securities, cash or property,
the “
Reference Property”) and at any time during which any Holder is unable to convert their Note in full due to the limitations set forth in
Section 3(d) of the Note, such Holder shall receive, at
each Holder’s option, simultaneously with the consummation of such Common Stock Fundamental Transaction, such Reference Property as the shares of the Common Stock into which such Note could have been converted immediately prior to such Common Stock
Fundamental Transaction would have been entitled if such conversion were permitted. In the event a Holder issues a Conversion Notice after such Holder has received a Fundamental Transaction Notice, such Conversion Notice must be received by the
Company no later than one (1) Business Day before the date of the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction specified in such Fundamental Transaction Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event the Company receives the Conversion Notice
referred to in the preceding sentence later one (1) Business Day before the date of the Fundamental Transaction specified in the Fundamental Transaction Notice, the Holder will not be able to convert its Note. The Company shall not consummate any
Fundamental Transaction without complying with the provisions of this
Section 6(a).
7. RIGHTS UPON ISSUANCE OF PURCHASE RIGHTS AND OTHER CORPORATE EVENTS.
(a)
Purchase Rights. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to
Sections 8 and
12 below, if at any time the Company
grants, issues or sells any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to all or substantially all of the record holders of any class of Common Stock (the “
Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of
Common Stock acquirable upon complete conversion of this Note (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the convertibility of this Note and assuming for such purpose that the Note was converted at the Conversion Price as of
the applicable record date) immediately prior to the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to
be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (
provided,
however, that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties
exceeding the Maximum Percentage, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to the extent of the Maximum Percentage (and shall not be entitled to beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of
such Purchase Right (and beneficial ownership) to the extent of any such excess) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance up to one hundred eighty
(180) Trading Days (and, if such Purchase Right
has an expiration date, maturity date or other similar provision, such term shall be extended by such number of days held in abeyance, if applicable) for the benefit of the Holder until such time or times during such extension period, if any, as
its right thereto would not result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, at which time or times the Holder shall be granted such right (and any Purchase Right granted, issued or sold on such initial
Purchase Right or on any subsequent Purchase Right held similarly in abeyance (and, if such Purchase Right has an expiration date, maturity date or other similar provision, such term shall be extended by such number of days held in abeyance, if
applicable)) to the same extent as if there had been no such limitation). The Holder shall be deemed to have waived the right to receive any such Purchase Rights that remain held in abeyance at the end of such abeyance period if not granted prior
to such time.
(b)
Other Corporate Events. In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the consummation of any
Fundamental Transaction pursuant to which holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive securities or other assets with respect to or in exchange for shares of Common Stock (a “
Corporate Event”),
the Company shall make appropriate provision to ensure that the Holder will thereafter have the right to receive upon a conversion of this Note, at the Holder’s option
(i) in addition to the shares of Common Stock
receivable upon such conversion, such securities or other assets to which the Holder would have been entitled with respect to such shares of Common Stock had such shares of Common Stock been held by the Holder upon the consummation of such
Corporate Event (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the convertibility of this Note) or (ii) in lieu of the shares of Common Stock otherwise receivable upon such conversion, such securities or other assets received by
the holders of shares of Common Stock in connection with the consummation of such Corporate Event in such amounts as the Holder would have been entitled to receive had this Note initially been issued with conversion rights for the form of such
consideration (as opposed to shares of Common Stock) at a conversion rate for such consideration commensurate with the Conversion Rate. Provision made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be in a form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
the Holder. The provisions of this
Section 6 shall apply similarly and equally to successive Corporate Events and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the conversion or
redemption of this Note.
8.
RIGHTS UPON ISSUANCE OF OTHER SECURITIES.
(a)
Adjustment of Conversion Price upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. Without limiting any provision of
Section 7
or
Section 12, if the Company at any time on or after the Subscription Date subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, stock combination, recapitalization or other similar transaction) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of
Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. Without limiting any provision of
Section 7 or
Section 12, if the Company at any
time on or after the Subscription Date combines (by any stock split, stock dividend, stock combination, recapitalization or other similar transaction) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares,
the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased. Any adjustment pursuant to this
Section 8(b) shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or
combination. If any event requiring an adjustment under this
Section 8(b) occurs during the period that a Conversion Price is calculated hereunder, then the calculation of such Conversion Price shall be adjusted appropriately to reflect
such event.
(b) Share Combination Event Adjustment. In addition to the adjustments set forth in this Section 8, if at any time on or after the Subscription Date
there occurs any share split, reverse share split, share dividend, share combination recapitalization or other similar transaction involving the Common Stock (each, a “Share Combination Event”, and such date
on which the Share Combination Event is effected, the “Share Combination Event Date”) and the lowest VWAP of the Common Stock during the period commencing on the Trading Day immediately following the
applicable Share Combination Event Date and ending on the fifth (5th) Trading Day immediately following the applicable Share Combination Event Date (such period the “Share Combination Adjustment Period” and
such price the “Event Market Price”) is less than the Conversion Price then in effect, then, at the close of trading on the Trading Market on the last day of the Share Combination Adjustment Period, the
Conversion Price then in effect on such fifth (5th) Trading Day shall be reduced (but in no event increased) to the Event Market Price and the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon exercise of this Note hereunder (such resulting number, the “Share Combination Issuable Shares”) shall be increased such that the aggregate Conversion Price payable hereunder, after taking into account the decrease in the Conversion Price, shall be equal to the aggregate
Conversion Price on the Subscription Date for the Conversion Shares then outstanding. For the avoidance of doubt, if the adjustment in this Section 8(b) would otherwise result in an increase in the Conversion Price hereunder, no adjustment
shall be made, and if this Note is exercised, on any date on which the Holder delivers a Conversion Notice to the Company during the Share Combination Adjustment Period, solely with respect to such portion of this Note exercised on such applicable
Conversion Date, such applicable Share Combination Adjustment Period shall be deemed to have ended on, and include, the Trading Day immediately prior to such Conversion Date and the Event Market Price on such applicable Conversion Date will be the
lowest VWAP of the Common Stock immediately prior to the Share Combination Event Date and ending on, and including the Trading Day immediately prior to such Conversion Date.
(c) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 8 shall be made by rounding to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as applicable. 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, and the disposition of any such shares shall be considered an issue or sale of shares of Common Stock.
9.
NONCIRCUMVENTION. Except to the extent waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by
amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement), Bylaws (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of
arrangement, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Note, and will at all times in good faith carry out all of the provisions of this
Note and take all commercially reasonable action as may be required to protect the rights of the Holder of this Note. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other provision of this Note or the other Transaction Documents, the
Company
(a) shall not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon conversion of this Note above the Conversion Price then in effect, and
(b) shall take all such
commercially reasonable actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of this Note. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, if after the sixty (60) calendar day anniversary of the Issuance Date, the Holder is not permitted to convert this Note in full for any reason (other than pursuant to restrictions set forth in
Section 3(d) hereof), the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to promptly remedy such failure, including, without limitation, obtaining such consents or approvals as necessary to permit such conversion into
shares of Common Stock.
10.
VOTING RIGHTS. The Holder shall have no voting rights as the holder of this Note, except as required by law (including, without limitation, the
Delaware General Corporation Law) and as expressly provided in this Note.
11.

Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete conversion of this Note (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the convertibility of this Note) immediately prior to the date on which a record
is taken for such Distribution or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for such Distributions (provided, however, that to the extent that the Holder’s
right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the extent of the Maximum
Percentage (and shall not be entitled to beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Distribution (and beneficial ownership) to the extent of any such excess) and the portion of such Distribution shall be held in
abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time or times, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, at which time or times the Holder shall be granted
such Distribution (and any Distributions declared or made on such initial Distribution or on any subsequent Distribution held similarly in abeyance) to the same extent as if there had been no such limitation).

provided,
however, that this Note may not be amended, modified or supplemented in any manner that would impose or result in any restriction, limitation
or prohibition on short sales or other shorting activity by any Holder, except to the extent expressly provided in this Note as of the date hereof.
14.
TRANSFER. This Note and any shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of this Note may be offered, sold, assigned or transferred by the Holder

forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the Holder a new Note (in accordance with

the Holder and, if less than the entire outstanding Principal is being transferred, a new Note (in accordance with
Section 15(d)) to the Holder representing the outstanding Principal not being

Section 3(c)(iii) following conversion or redemption of any

Note, and each such new Note will represent such portion of such outstanding Principal as is designated by the Holder at the time of such surrender.

(i)
shall be of like tenor with this Note, (ii) shall represent, as indicated on the face of such new Note, the Principal remaining outstanding (or in the case of a new Note being issued pursuant to
Section 15(a)

16.
REMEDIES, CHARACTERIZATIONS, OTHER OBLIGATIONS, BREACHES AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. The remedies provided in this Note shall be cumulative and in
addition to all other remedies available under this Note and any of the other Transaction Documents at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the Holder’s right
to pursue actual and consequential damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Note. No failure on the part of the Holder to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a
waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Holder of any right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. In addition, the exercise of any right or
remedy of the Holder at law or equity or under this Note or any of the documents shall not be deemed to be an election of Holder’s rights or remedies under such documents or at law or equity. Amounts set forth or provided for herein with respect to
payments, conversion and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by the Holder and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any other obligation of the Company (or the performance thereof).
The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Company therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach
or threatened breach, the Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to specific performance and/or temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction in
any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages and without posting a bond or other security. Upon reasonable request, the Company shall provide the Holder with such additional information as is reasonably necessary to enable the
Holder to verify the Company's compliance with the material terms of this Note, subject to applicable confidentiality restrictions and attorney-client privilege.
17.
PAYMENT OF COLLECTION, ENFORCEMENT AND OTHER COSTS. If
(a) this Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for
collection or enforcement or is collected or enforced through any legal proceeding or the Holder otherwise takes action to collect amounts due under this Note or to enforce the provisions of this Note or
(b) there
occurs any bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership of the Company or other proceedings affecting Company creditors’ rights and involving a claim under this Note, then the Company shall pay the costs incurred by the Holder for such collection,
enforcement or action or in connection with such bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership or other proceeding, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements. The Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that no amounts due under
this Note shall be affected, or limited, by the fact that the purchase price paid for this Note was less than the original Principal amount hereof.
18.
CONSTRUCTION; HEADINGS. This Note shall be deemed to be jointly drafted by the Company and the initial Holder and shall not be construed against any
such Person as the drafter hereof. The headings of this Note are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Note. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, each pronoun herein shall be
deemed to include the masculine, feminine, neuter, singular and plural forms thereof. The terms “including,” “includes,” “include” and words of like import shall be construed broadly as if followed by the words “without limitation.” The terms
“herein,” “hereunder,” “hereof” and words of like import refer to this entire Note instead of just the provision in which they are found. Unless expressly indicated otherwise, all section references are to sections of this Note. Terms used in this
Note and not otherwise defined herein, but defined in the other Transaction Documents, shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms on the Closing Date in such other Transaction Documents unless otherwise consented to in writing by the Holder.
19. FAILURE OR INDULGENCE NOT WAIVER. No failure or delay on the part of the Holder in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor
shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized
representative of the waiving party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 19 shall permit any waiver of any provision of Section 3(d).
(a)
Submission to Dispute Resolution.
(i) In the case of a dispute relating to a Closing Bid Price, a Closing Sale Price, a Conversion Price, a VWAP or a fair market value or the
arithmetic calculation of a Conversion Rate or the Event of Default Redemption Price (as the case may be) (including, without limitation, a dispute relating to the determination of any of the foregoing), the Company or the Holder (as the case may
be) shall submit the dispute to the other party via electronic mail at any time after the Company or Holder learned of the circumstances giving rise to such dispute. If the Holder and the Company are unable to promptly resolve such dispute relating
to such Closing Bid Price, such Closing Sale Price, such Conversion Price, such VWAP or such fair market value, or the arithmetic calculation of such Conversion Rate or the Event of Default Redemption Price (as the case may be), at any time after
the second (2nd) Business Day following such initial notice by the Company or the Holder (as the case may be) of such dispute to the Company or the Holder (as the case may be), then the Company may, at its sole option, select an independent,
reputable investment bank to resolve such dispute.
(ii) The Holder and the Company shall each deliver to such investment bank
(A) a copy of the initial dispute
submission so delivered in accordance with the first sentence of this
Section 20 and
(B) written documentation supporting its position with respect to such dispute, in each case, no later than 5:00 p.m. (New
York time) by the fifth (5th) Business Day immediately following the date on which the Holder selected such investment bank (the “
Dispute Submission Deadline”) (the documents referred to in the immediately
preceding clauses (A) and
(B) are collectively referred to herein as the “
Required Dispute Documentation”) (it being understood and agreed that if either the Holder or the
Company fails to so deliver all of the Required Dispute Documentation by the Dispute Submission Deadline, then the party who fails to so submit all of the Required Dispute Documentation shall no longer be entitled to (and hereby waives its right
to) deliver or submit any written documentation or other support to such investment bank with respect to such dispute and such investment bank shall resolve such dispute based solely on the Required Dispute Documentation that was delivered to such
investment bank prior to the Dispute Submission Deadline). Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by both the Company and the Holder or otherwise requested by such investment bank, neither the Company nor the Holder shall be entitled to deliver or
submit any written documentation or other support to such investment bank in connection with such dispute (other than the Required Dispute Documentation).
(iii) The Company and the Holder shall cause such investment bank to determine the resolution of such dispute and notify the Company and the
Holder of such resolution no later than ten (10) Business Days immediately following the Dispute Submission Deadline. The fees and expenses of such investment bank shall be borne solely by the non-prevailing party, and such investment bank’s
resolution of such dispute shall be final and binding upon all parties absent manifest error.

Section 20 above, the parties hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts
sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert
in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is
improper. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by
law. Nothing contained herein

to the Holder, to realize on any collateral or any other security for such obligations, or to enforce a judgment or other court ruling in favor of the Holder or (ii) shall limit, or shall be deemed or construed to limit, any provision of

OUT OF THIS NOTE OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

convert into any other currency (such other currency being hereinafter in this
Section 25 referred to as the “
Judgment Currency”) an amount due in U.S. dollars under this Note, the conversion shall be
made at the Exchange Rate prevailing on the Trading Day immediately preceding:
(i) the date actual payment of the amount due, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of Delaware or in the courts of any other
jurisdiction that will give effect to such conversion being made on such date: or
(ii) the date on which the foreign court determines, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any other jurisdiction (the date as of
which such conversion is made pursuant to this
Section 25(a)(ii) being hereinafter referred to as the “
Judgment Conversion Date”).
(b) If in the case of any proceeding in the court of any jurisdiction referred to in
Section 25(a)(ii)
above, there is a change in the Exchange Rate prevailing between the Judgment Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, the applicable party shall pay such adjusted amount as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid
in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the Exchange Rate prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of US dollars which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial order
at the Exchange Rate prevailing on the Judgment Conversion Date.
(c) Any amount due from the Company under this provision shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained
for any other amounts due under or in respect of this Note.
26.
SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Note is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent
jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall
not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Note so long as this Note as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature,
invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon
the parties. The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or
unenforceable provision(s).
27.
MAXIMUM PAYMENTS. Without limiting Section
9(d) of the Securities Purchase Agreement, nothing contained herein shall be
deemed to establish or require the payment of a rate of interest or other charges in excess of the maximum permitted by applicable law. In the event that the rate of interest required to be paid or other charges hereunder exceed the maximum
permitted by such law, any payments in excess of such maximum shall be credited against amounts owed by the Company to the Holder and thus refunded to the Company.

“regular trading hours” on a Trading Day and is delivered within two (2) hours thereafter (including until two (2) hours after the close of “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day) pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof or (iii) the
VWAP on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if the date of such Notice of Exercise is a Trading Day and such Notice of Exercise is both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof after the close of “regular
trading hours” on such Trading Day;

“Bid Price” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Common Stock is then
listed or quoted on a Trading Market, the bid price of the Common Stock for the time in question (or the nearest preceding date) on the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a
Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if OTCQB or OTCQX is not a Trading Market, the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on
OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported on The Pink Open Market (or a similar organization or agency succeeding
to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per share of the Common Stock so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent appraiser selected in
good faith by the Holder, reasonably acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.
“VWAP” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Common Stock is then listed or quoted on a Trading
Market, the daily volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a Trading Day
from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if OTCQB or OTCQX is not a Trading Market, the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX
as applicable, (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported on The Pink Open Market (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its
functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per share of the Common Stock so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good
faith by the Holder, reasonably acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.
If Warrant Shares are issued in such a cashless exercise, the parties acknowledge and agree that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the
Securities Act, the Warrant Shares shall take on the registered characteristics of the Warrants being exercised. The Company agrees not to take any position contrary to this Section 2(c).
d) Mechanics of Exercise.
i. Delivery of Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. The Company shall cause the Warrant Shares purchased
hereunder to be transmitted by the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or
Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant
Shares by the Holder or (B) this Warrant is being exercised via cashless exercise, and otherwise by physical delivery of a certificate, registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number
of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that is the earlier of (i) one (1) Trading Day after the delivery to the Company of
the Notice of Exercise, and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”), in each case subject
to the delivery to the Company of the aggregate Exercise Price to the Company (if applicable). Upon delivery of the Notice of Exercise, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the
Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the Warrant Shares, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is
received by the Warrant Share Delivery Date. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the Warrant Shares subject to a Notice of Exercise by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in
cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Warrant Shares subject to such exercise (based on the VWAP of the Common Stock on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20
per Trading Day on the third Trading Day after the Warrant Share Delivery Date) for each Trading Day after such Warrant Share Delivery Date until such Warrant Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise. The Company agrees to
maintain a transfer agent that is a participant in the FAST program so long as this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable. As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means the standard settlement period, expressed in a
number of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary Trading Market with respect to the Common Stock as in effect on the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Notice(s) of Exercise
delivered on or prior to 04:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Trading Day immediately prior to the Initial Exercise Date, which may be delivered at any time after the time of execution of that underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting
Agreement”), dated August 25, 2025, by and among the Company and the underwriters signatory thereto, the Company agrees to deliver the Warrant Shares subject to such notice(s) by 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Initial Exercise Date
and the Initial Exercise Date shall be the Warrant Share Delivery Date for purposes hereunder, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received by such Warrant Share
Delivery Date.
ii. Delivery of New Warrants Upon Exercise. If this Warrant shall have been
exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request of a Holder and upon surrender of this Warrant certificate, at the time of delivery of the Warrant Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to
purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant.
iii. Rescission Rights. If the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to
transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 2(d)(i) by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.
iv. Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Warrant Shares Upon Exercise.
In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 2(d)(i) above pursuant to an exercise on
or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date, and if after such date the Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to
deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder the amount, if any, by which (x) the
Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver
to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and
equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored (in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company
timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $[●] to cover a Buy-In with respect to an
attempted exercise of shares of Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $[●] under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall
be required to pay the Holder $[●]. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company,
evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or
injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
v. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be
issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall, at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such
final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Exercise Price or round up to the next whole share.
vi. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Warrant Shares 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 Warrant Shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such Warrant Shares 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 in the event that 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 duly executed by the Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax
incidental thereto. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Exercise and all fees to the Depository Trust Company (or another established clearing corporation performing similar
functions) required for same-day electronic delivery of the Warrant Shares.
vii. Closing 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.
e) Holder’s Exercise Limitations. The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a
Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 2 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise as set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, the
Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any other Persons acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates (such Persons, “Attribution Parties”)), would beneficially own in excess of the
Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the number of
shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining,
nonexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company
(including, without limitation, any other Common Stock Equivalents) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution
Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 2(e), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder, it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules
required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 2(e) applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder
together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be the Holder’s
determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to
the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in
accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 2(e), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Holder may rely on the number
of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (A) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement
by the Company or (C) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within one (1)
Trading Day confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or
exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its Affiliates or Attribution Parties since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership
Limitation” shall be [4.99% or 9.99%] of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Holder, upon notice
to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 2(e), provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock
outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant held by the Holder and the provisions of this Section 2(e) shall continue to apply. Any increase in the Beneficial
Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company. The provisions of this paragraph shall be
construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 2(e) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership
Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.
Section 3. Certain Adjustments.
a) Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is
outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt,
shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company upon exercise of this Warrant), (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of reverse stock split)
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues by reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then in each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a
fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately after such event, and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant shall remain unchanged. Any adjustment
made pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective
date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re‑classification.
b) Subsequent Rights Offerings. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section
3(a) above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Common Stock Equivalents or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase
Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock
acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the
grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided,
however, that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such
Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if
ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).
c) Pro Rata Distributions. During such time as this Warrant is outstanding, if the Company shall declare
or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of shares of Common Stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or
other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after the issuance of this
Warrant, then, in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable
upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date of which a record is taken for such Distribution,
or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution (provided, however, that to the extent that the Holder’s
right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (or in the beneficial
ownership of any shares of Common Stock as a result of such Distribution to such extent) and the portion of such Distribution shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not
result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).
d) Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) the Company, directly
or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company or any of its subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license,
assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the
Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or more of the
outstanding Common Stock or 50% or more of the voting power of the common equity of the Company, (iv) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization or
recapitalization of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, or (v) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one
or more related transactions consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off, merger or scheme of arrangement) with another Person
or group of Persons whereby such other Person or group acquires 50% or more of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or 50% or more of the voting power of the common equity of the Company (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), then,
upon any subsequent 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, at the
option of the Holder (without regard to any limitation in Section 2(e) on the exercise of this Warrant), the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the 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 (without regard to any limitation in Section 2(e) on the exercise of this Warrant). For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such
Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration
in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. 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 3(d) pursuant
to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder (without unreasonable delay) 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 exercise price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative 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 be added to the term “Company” under this Warrant (so that from
and after the occurrence or consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, each and every provision of this Warrant referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to each of the Company and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities,
jointly and severally), and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally with the Company, may exercise every right and power of the Company prior thereto and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities shall assume
all of the obligations of the Company prior thereto under this Warrant with the same effect as if the Company and such Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally, had been named as the Company herein. For the avoidance
of doubt, the Holder shall be entitled to the benefits of the provisions of this Section 3(e) regardless of (i) whether the Company has sufficient authorized shares of Common Stock for the issuance of Warrant Shares and/or (ii) whether a
Fundamental Transaction occurs prior to the Initial Exercise Date.
e) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 3 shall be made to the nearest
cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section 3, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common
Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.
f) Notice to Holder.
i. Adjustment to Exercise Price. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to
any provision of this Section 3, the Company shall promptly deliver to the Holder by email a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and any resulting adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares and setting forth a
brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.
ii. Notice to Allow Exercise by Holder. If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other
distribution in whatever form) on the Common Stock, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock, (C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock
rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock,
any consolidation or merger to which the Company (or any of its Subsidiaries) is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of its assets, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other
securities, cash or property, or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be delivered by email to
the Holder at its last email address as it shall appear upon the Warrant Register of the Company, at least 20 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a
record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend,
distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which
it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer
or share exchange; provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. To the extent that any
notice provided in this Warrant constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current
Report on Form 8-K. The Holder shall remain entitled to exercise this Warrant during the period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly set
forth herein.
Section 4. Transfer of Warrant.
a) Transferability. This Warrant and all rights hereunder (including, without
limitation, any registration rights) are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company or its designated agent, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in
the form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall
execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable, and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant
evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company
unless the Holder has assigned this Warrant in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company within three (3) Trading Days of the date on which the Holder delivers an assignment form to the Company assigning
this Warrant in full. The Warrant, if properly assigned in accordance herewith, may be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued.
b) New Warrants. This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon
presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the Company, together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to
compliance with Section 4(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in
accordance with such notice. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the Issue Date of this Warrant and shall be identical with this Warrant except as to the number of Warrant Shares issuable pursuant thereto.
c) Warrant Register. The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the
Company for that purpose (the “Warrant Register”), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any
exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.
Section 5. Miscellaneous.
a) No Rights as Stockholder Until Exercise; No Settlement in Cash. This Warrant
does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 2(d)(i), except as expressly set forth in Section 3. Without limiting any
rights of a Holder to receive Warrant Shares on a “cashless exercise” pursuant to Section 2(c) or to receive cash payments pursuant to Section 2(d)(i) and Section 2(d)(iv) herein, in no event shall the Company be required to net cash
settle an exercise of this Warrant.
b) Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company covenants that
upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of
indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of the Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will
make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.
c) Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking
of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a Business Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Business Day.
d) Authorized Shares.
The Company covenants that, during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares
to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are
charged with the duty of issuing the necessary Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be
issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Trading Market upon which the Common Stock may be listed. The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued
upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant and payment for such Warrant Shares in accordance herewith, be duly authorized, validly issued,
fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by the Company in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).
Except and to the extent as waived or consented
to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of
securities 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 and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against
impairment. 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 nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant and (iii) use commercially reasonable
efforts to 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.
Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the
Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.
e) Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Jury Trial. This Warrant shall be governed by and
construed and enforced in accordance with, and all questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and performance of this Warrant shall be governed by, the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to
any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York. The Company hereby
irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York and of the United States of America sitting in The City and County of New York for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection
herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any
such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. The Company hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to
process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to the Company at the address set forth in Section 5(h) below or such other address as the Company subsequently delivers to the Holder and agrees that
such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. Nothing contained herein
shall be deemed or operate to preclude the Holder from bringing suit or taking other legal action against the Company in any other jurisdiction to collect on the Company’s obligations to the Holder, to realize on any collateral or any
other security for such obligations, or to enforce a judgment or other court ruling in favor of the Holder. If either party shall commence an action, suit or proceeding to enforce any provisions of this Warrant, the prevailing party in
such action, suit or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for their reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding. THE COMPANY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS WARRANT OR ANY
TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
f) Restrictions. The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this
Warrant, if not registered, and the Holder does not utilize cashless exercise, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws.
g) Nonwaiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise
any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the Holder’s rights, powers or remedies. Without limiting any other provision of this Warrant, if the Company willfully and
knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to the Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not
limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by the Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.
h) Notices. A Whenever notice is required to be given under this Warrant,
including, without limitation, an Exercise Notice, unless otherwise provided herein, such notice shall be given in writing, (i) if delivered (a) from within the domestic United States, by first-class registered or certified airmail, or
nationally recognized overnight express courier, postage prepaid, electronic mail or (b) from outside the United States, by International Federal Express, electronic mail, and (ii) will be deemed given (A) if delivered by first-class
registered or certified mail domestic, three (3) Business Days after so mailed, (B) if delivered by nationally recognized overnight carrier, one (1) Business Day after so mailed, (C) if delivered by International Federal Express, two (2)
Business Days after so mailed and (D) at the time of transmission, if delivered by electronic mail to each of the email addresses specified in this Section 5(h) prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on a Trading Day, and (E) the next Trading
Day after the date of transmission, if delivered by electronic mail to each of the email addresses specified in this Section 8 on a day that is not a Trading Day or later than 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on any Trading Day, and will be
delivered and addressed as follows:

The Company shall provide the Holder with prompt written notice of all actions taken pursuant to this Warrant, including in reasonable detail a description of such
action and the reason therefor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will give written notice to the Holder (i) promptly upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price, setting forth in reasonable detail, and
certifying, the calculation of such adjustment and (ii) at least fifteen (15) days prior to the date on which the Company closes its books or takes a record (A) with respect to any dividend or distribution upon the shares of Common Stock,
(B) with respect to any grants, issuances or sales of any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property to holders of shares of Common Stock or (C) for determining rights to vote with
respect to any Fundamental Transaction, dissolution or liquidation; provided in each case that such information shall be made known to the public prior to or in conjunction with such notice being provided to the Holder. It is
expressly understood and agreed that the time of exercise specified by the Holder in each Exercise Notice shall be definitive and may not be disputed or challenged by the Company.
i) Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative
action by the Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock or as
a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.
j) Remedies. The Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights
granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a
breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive and not to assert the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.
k) Successors and Assigns. Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and
the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder. The provisions of this Warrant are
intended to be for the benefit of any Holder from time to time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by the Holder or holder of Warrant Shares.
l) Amendment. This Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof
waived with the written consent of the Company, on the one hand, and the Holder of this Warrant, on the other hand.
m) Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be
interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such
prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.
n) Headings. The headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference
only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant.
