14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Section
145(a) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), which Vapor is subject to, provides that a corporation
may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action,
suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation)
by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving
at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture,
trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement
actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the person acted in good
faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with
respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the person’s conduct was unlawful. Section
145(b) of the DGCL provides that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party
to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor
by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving
at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture,
trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the person in
connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except that no indemnification shall
be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation
unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine
upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is
fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.
To the extent that a present or former director or officer of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in
defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Section 145(a) and (b) of the DGCL, or in defense of any claim, issue
or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably
incurred by such person in connection therewith.
Any
indemnification under Section 145(a) and (b) of the DGCL (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by Vapor only as authorized
in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the present or director, officer, employee or agent is proper
in the circumstances because the person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 145(a) and (b). Such determination
shall be made, with respect to a person who is a director or officer at the time of such determination, (1) by a majority vote
of the directors who are not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (2) by a committee
of such directors designated by majority vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum, or (3) if there are no such directors,
or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (4) by the shareholders. Expenses (including
attorneys’ fees) incurred by an officer or director in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action,
suit or proceeding may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon
receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined
that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as authorized in this section. Such expenses (including
attorneys’ fees) incurred by former directors and officers or other employees and agents may be so paid upon such terms
and conditions, if any, as the corporation deems appropriate. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or
granted pursuant to, Section 145 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement
of expenses may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as
to action in such person’s official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office.
Section
145 of the DGCL also empowers a corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director,
officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer,
employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted
against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether
or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under Section 145.
Article
10 of the Vapor’s Certificate of Incorporation and Article 7 of Vapor’s Bylaws provide that directors, officers, employees
and agents shall be indemnified to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL.
Vapor
carries directors and officers liability coverages designed to insure its officers and directors and those of its subsidiaries
against certain liabilities incurred by them in the performance of their duties, and also providing for reimbursement in certain
cases to Vapor and its subsidiaries for sums paid to directors and officers as indemnification for similar liability. Vapor has
entered into Indemnification Agreements with its executive officers and directors providing for advancement of expenses and indemnification
to the fullest extent permissible under DGCL.
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling
persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, Vapor has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
Item
15. Recent Sales of Unregistered
Securities
On
June 25, 2015, the Company closed on a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of June 22, 2015, with certain purchasers pursuant
to which the Company sold, at a 5% original issue discount, a total of $1,750,000 convertible debentures (the “Debentures”).
Net proceeds to the Company from sale of the Debentures, after payment of commissions and legal fees of the lead investor, were
$1,466,250. The Debentures mature December 22, 2015, and accrue interest at 10% per year. Amounts of principal and accrued interest
under the Debentures are convertible into common stock of the Company at a price per share of $2.50. Principal and accrued interest
on the Debentures are payable in three approximately equal installments on September 22, 2015, October 22, 2015 and December 22,
2015, at the election of the holders of the Debentures, (i) in cash for an additional 25% premium, or (ii) in common stock of
the Company at a price per share of $2.50. As lead investor under the Securities Purchase Agreement, Redwood Management, LLC received
a right of first refusal to purchase up to 100% of the securities offered by the Company in future private placement offerings
through December 22, 2015.
The
Company’s obligations under the Debentures can be accelerated in the event the Company undergoes a change in control and
other customary events of default. In the event of default and acceleration of the Company’s obligations, the Company would
be required to pay 130% of amounts of principal and interest then outstanding under the Debentures. The Company’s obligations
under the Debentures are secured under a Security Agreement, under which Redwood Management, LLC acts as Collateral Agent, by
a second lien on substantially all of the Company’s assets, including all of the Company’s interests in its consolidated
subsidiaries.
For
acting as placement agent in the offering of the Debentures, the Company paid Chardan Capital Management, LLC (the “Placement
Agent”) a fee equal to 10% of the gross proceeds from the sale of the Debentures, and issued the Placement Agent 70,000
five-year warrants exercisable at $2.50 per share. In addition, the Company agreed to reduce the exercise price of 28,614 warrants
held by the Placement Agent to $2.50 from their original exercise prices ranging from $10.05 to $12.05.
On
June 19, 2015, the Company entered into agreements (the “Waivers”), with certain investors in each of its private
placement offerings under the Securities Purchase Agreement dated March 3, 2015 (the “2015 Agreement”) and the Securities
Purchase Agreement dated November 14, 2014 (the “2014 Agreement,” and with the 2015 Agreement, the “Agreements”).
Under the terms of the Waivers, the signatories thereto (the “Prior Investors”) agreed to amend the Agreements and
waive or modify certain terms thereunder, including certain price protection provisions and participation rights in subsequent
securities offerings. In exchange, the Company agreed to issue the Prior Investors a total of 647,901 shares of common stock (including
142,000 shares issued to the lead investor under each of the Agreements in its capacity as lead investor) and 595,685 five-year
warrants exercisable at $2.525 per share. In the event that, prior to November 14, 2015, the Company issues shares of common stock,
or securities convertible into common stock, at an effective price per share of less than $2.70, the Prior Investors will be entitled
to the issuance of additional shares (the “Additional Shares”), the exact amount of which will depend on the effective
price per share of such subsequent issuance, but which will not exceed a total of 2,328,598 shares. The Company will not issue
any shares of common stock requiring shareholder approval under the Rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market without receipt of such approval.
The Company will not issue any of the Additional Shares unless the 647,901 shares of common stock, the shares issuable upon conversion
of the Debentures and the Additional Shares are either within the 19.9% Nasdaq limitation or the issuance is approved by shareholders.
The Company agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission registering the shares and warrant
shares issued to the Prior Investors under the Waivers.
On
June 16, 2015, the Company issued a total of 292,191 shares of common stock upon the vesting of restricted stock units assumed
by the Company in connection with its merger with Vaporin, Inc. effective March 4, 2015. Recipients of the shares issued upon
vesting of the restricted stock units included Gregory Brauser, the Company’s President and a member of the Board. On May
27, 2015, the Company issued a total of 27,500 shares of common stock to consultants of the Company for consulting services.
The
shares and warrants issued under the Waivers, the shares issued upon vesting of the restricted stock units, and the shares issued
to consultants, were issued without registration under the Securities Act of 1933 in reliance upon the exemption provided in Section
4(a)(2).

17. Undertakings
The
undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
|
(1) |
To
file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
|
|
(i) |
to
include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; |
|
|
|
|
(ii) |
to
reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most
recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information
set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered
(if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low
or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant
to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate
offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;
and |
|
|
|
|
(iii) |
to
include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement
or any material change to such information in the registration statement. |
|
(2) |
That,
for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. |
|
|
|
|
(3) |
To
remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold
at the termination of the offering. |
|
(4) |
That,
for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution
of the securities, the undersigned undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant
to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the
securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant
will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser: |
|
(i) |
Any
preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant
to Rule 424; |
|
|
|
|
(ii) |
Any
free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred
to by the undersigned registrant; |
|
|
|
|
(iii) |
The
portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material
information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf
of the undersigned registrant; and |
|
|
|
|
(iv) |
Any
other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser. |
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons
of the registrant pursuant to the provisions described under Item 14 above, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that
in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment
by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful
defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the
securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy
as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
The
undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:
|
(1) |
For
purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus
filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the
registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration
statement as of the time it was declared effective. |
|
|
|
|
(2) |
For
the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form
of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering
of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. |

accordance with the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its

4.2
FORM
OF SERIES A WARRANT
VAPOR
CORP.
WARRANT
TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK
Warrant
No.:
Date of
Issuance: [ ], 2015 (“Issuance Date”)
Vapor
Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby certifies that, for good and valuable consideration,
the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, [ ], the registered holder hereof or its permitted assigns
(the “Holder”), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company, at the Exercise
Price (as defined below) then in effect, upon exercise of this Series A Warrant, to purchase Common Stock (including any Warrants
to Purchase Common Stock issued in exchange, transfer or replacement hereof, the “Warrant”), at any time or
times on or after the Issuance Date, but not after 11:59 p.m., New York time, on the Expiration Date (as defined below), [5 YEARS
FROM DATE OF THE PROSPECTUS] (subject to adjustment as provided herein) fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (as
defined below) (the “Warrant Shares”). Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms in this Warrant
shall have the meanings set forth in Section 16. This Warrant is one of the Warrants to Purchase Common Stock (the “Purchased
Warrants”) underlying certain Units issued pursuant to the Offering (as defined in that certain Underwriting Agreement,
dated as of [ ], 2015, by and between the Company and Dawson James Securities, Inc., as representative of the several underwriters
(the “Underwriting Agreement”)).
This
Warrant shall be issuable in book entry form (the “Book-Entry Warrant Certificate”) and shall initially be
represented by one or more Book-Entry Warrant Certificates deposited with Equity Stock Transfer (the “Warrant Agent”)
and registered in the name of the Holder, or as otherwise directed by the Warrant Agent. Ownership of beneficial interests in
this Warrant shall be shown on, and the transfer of such ownership shall be effected through, records maintained by the Warrant
Agent (the “Warrant Register”). 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 written notice to the contrary.
1.
EXERCISE OF WARRANT.
(a)
Mechanics of Exercise. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof (including, without limitation, the limitations set forth
in Section 1(f)), this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder, in whole or in part, upon the earlier of (but in no event earlier
than 30 days from the Date of Issuance) on (i) any day on or after the date that is six months after the Date of Issuance, (ii)
any day on or after the Early Exercise Trigger Date, or (iii) immediately if exercised for cash, in each case by delivery (whether
via e-mail, facsimile or otherwise) of a written notice, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Exercise
Notice”) to the Warrant Agent or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing
to the registered Holder at the address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Company or the Warrant Agent (or to the Company
if the exercise is made pursuant to a Cashless Exercise (as defined in Section 1(d)), of the Holder’s election to exercise
this Warrant. Within one (1) Trading Day following an exercise of this Warrant as aforesaid, the Holder shall deliver payment
to the Warrant Agent of an amount equal to the Exercise Price in effect on the date of such exercise multiplied by the number
of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant was so exercised (in respect of such specific exercise, the “Aggregate Exercise
Price”) in cash or via wire transfer of immediately available funds (to the account set forth on Schedule A
hereto) if the Holder did not notify the Company in such Exercise Notice that such exercise was made pursuant to a Cashless Exercise
(as defined in Section 1(d)). The Holder shall not be required to deliver the original of this Warrant in order to effect an exercise
hereunder. Execution and delivery of an Exercise Notice with respect to less than all of the Warrant Shares shall have the same
effect as cancellation of the original of this Warrant certificate and issuance of a new Warrant certificate evidencing the right
to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares. Execution and delivery of an Exercise Notice for all of the then-remaining
Warrant Shares shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original of this Warrant certificate after delivery of the Warrant
Shares in accordance with the terms hereof. The Holder and the Company or the Warrant Agent shall maintain records showing the
number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date of such purchases.
The
Company or the Warrant Agent shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise form within two Business Days of receipt of
the applicable Notice of Exercise. On or before the first (1st) Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received
an Exercise Notice for a Cashless Exercise, the Company shall transmit by e-mail or facsimile an acknowledgment of confirmation
of receipt of such Exercise Notice, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, to the Warrant Agent. On or before
the third (3rd) Trading Day following (A) in the event of a Cashless Exercise, the date on which the Company has received such
Exercise Notice or (B) in the event of an exercise for cash, the later of (i) the date on which the Warrant Agent has received
such Exercise Notice or (ii) the date on which the Warrant Agent receives the Aggregate Exercise Price (such date is referred
to herein as the “Delivery Date”), the Company shall, (X) provided that (I) the Transfer Agent is participating
in The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program and (II) either a registration
statement for the issuance to the Holder of the applicable Warrant Shares to be issued pursuant to such Exercise Notice is effective
and the prospectus contained therein is usable or such Warrant Shares to be so issued are otherwise freely tradable, cause the
Warrant Agent to credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise
to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian system, or
(Y) if either of the immediately preceding clauses (I) or (II) are not satisfied, issue and deliver to the Holder or, at the Holder’s
instruction pursuant to the Exercise Notice, the Holder’s agent or designee, in each case, sent by reputable overnight courier
to the address as specified in the applicable Exercise Notice, a certificate, registered in the Company’s share register
in the name of the Holder or its designee (as indicated in the applicable Exercise Notice), for the number of shares of Common
Stock to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise. Upon (A) in the event of a Cashless Exercise, the date on which
the Company has received such Exercise Notice or (B) in the event of an exercise for cash, the later of (i) the date on which
the Warrant Agent has received such Exercise Notice or (ii) the date on which the Warrant Agent receives the Aggregate Exercise
Price, 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 such Warrant Shares are credited to the Holder’s DTC
account or the date of delivery of the certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares (as the case may be); provided, however, that
if the date of such receipt is a date upon which the Common Stock transfer books of the Company are closed, such Holder shall
be deemed to have become the record holder of such shares on, the next succeeding day on which the Common Stock transfer books
of the Company are open. If this Warrant is submitted in connection with any exercise pursuant to this Section 1(a) and the number
of Warrant Shares represented by this Warrant submitted for exercise is greater than the number of Warrant Shares being acquired
upon an exercise, then, at the request of the Holder and upon surrender hereof by the Holder at the principal office of the Company,
the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than three (3) Business Days after any exercise and at its own
expense, issue and deliver to the Holder (or its designee) a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing the right
to purchase the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant, less the number of
Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is exercised. No fractional shares of Common Stock are to be issued upon the
exercise of this Warrant, but rather the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall be rounded up to the nearest whole
number. The Company shall pay any and all taxes and fees which may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Warrant
Shares upon exercise of this Warrant.
(b)
Exercise Price. For purposes of this Warrant, “Exercise Price” means $[ ], subject to adjustment
as provided herein.
(c)
Company’s Failure to Timely Deliver Securities. If the Company shall fail, for any reason or for no reason, to issue
to the Holder on or before the applicable Delivery Date, 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 to credit the Holder’s balance
account with DTC for such number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise of
this Warrant (as the case may be), then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Holder, the Company shall pay in cash
to the Holder on each day after such third (3rd) Trading Day that the issuance of such shares of Common Stock is not timely effected
an amount equal to 2% of the product of (A) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock not issued to the Holder on a timely
basis and to which the Holder is entitled and (B) the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding
the last possible date on which the Company could have issued such shares of Common Stock to the Holder without violating Section
1(a).
In
addition to the foregoing, if the Company shall fail to issue and deliver a certificate to the Holder and register such shares
of Common Stock on the Company’s share register or credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC for the number of
shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise or exchange hereunder (as the case may
be) on or prior to the applicable Delivery Date, and if on or after such Delivery Date the Holder (or any other Person in respect,
or on behalf, of the Holder) purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction
of a sale by the Holder of all or any portion of the number of shares of Common Stock, or a sale of a number of shares of Common
Stock equal to all or any portion of the number of shares of Common Stock, issuable upon such exercise or exchange that the Holder
so anticipated receiving from the Company, then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Holder, the Company shall,
within three (3) Business Days after 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 and other out-of-pocket
expenses, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased (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 or credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to
which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise or exchange 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 Holder’s balance account with DTC for the number of
shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise or exchange 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 (A) such number
of shares of Common Stock multiplied by (B) the lowest Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on any Trading Day during the period
commencing on the date of the applicable Exercise Notice or Exchange Notice, as the case may be, and ending on the date of such
issuance and payment under this clause (ii),
(d)
Cashless Exercise. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary (other than Section 1(f) below), on the
earlier of the Early Exercise Trigger Date or six months after the Date of Issuance, the Holder may, in its sole discretion
(and without limiting the Holder’s rights and remedies contained herein), exercise this Warrant in whole or in part and,
subject to the provisions of Section 1(a), in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company
upon such exercise in payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price, elect instead to receive upon such exercise a cash payment from
the Company equal to the product of (i) the total number of shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised
multiplied by (ii) the Black Scholes Value (as defined below) (the “Exchange Amount”). In the Company’s
sole discretion, so long as the Equity Conditions have occurred the Company may elect to treat such notice as a cashless exercise
of the Warrant with respect to the number of shares specified in “A” below for the “Net Number” of shares
of Common Stock determined according to the following formula with respect thereto (a “Cashless Exercise”),
as follows:
Net Number
= (A x B) / C
For purposes
of the foregoing formula:
A= the total
number of shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised.
B= Black
Scholes Value (as defined below).
C=
the Closing Bid Price of the Common Stock as of two (2) Trading Days prior to the time of such exercise (as defined below).
(e)
Disputes. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price or the arithmetic calculation of the number
of Warrant Shares to be issued pursuant to the terms hereof (including, without limitation, the Net Number), the Company shall
promptly issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares that are not disputed, provided that following such issuance to Holder
such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with Section 13.
(f)
Limitations on Exercises and Exchanges. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Warrant, this Warrant
shall not be exercisable or exchangeable by the Holder hereof to the extent (but only to the extent) that the Holder or any of
its Affiliates would beneficially own in excess of 4.9% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the Common Stock. To
the extent the above limitation applies, the determination of whether this Warrant shall be exercisable or exchangeable (vis-à-vis
other convertible, exercisable or exchangeable securities owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates) and of which such securities
shall be exercisable or exchangeable (as among all such securities owned by the Holder) 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 exercise or exchange this Warrant pursuant to this paragraph shall have any effect on the applicability
of the provisions of this paragraph with respect to any subsequent determination of exercisability or exchangeability.
For
the 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 Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (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 Warrant.
The holders of Common Stock shall be third party beneficiaries of this paragraph and the Company may not amend or waive this paragraph
without the consent of holders of a majority of its Common Stock. For any reason at any time, upon the written or oral request
of the Holder, the Company shall within one (1) Business Day confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares
of Common Stock then outstanding, including by virtue of any prior conversion or exercise or exchange of convertible or exercisable
or exchangeable securities into Common Stock, including, without limitation, pursuant to this Warrant or securities issued pursuant
to the Certificate of Designation for the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.
(g)
Insufficient Authorized Shares.
The
Company shall at all times keep reserved for issuance under this Warrant a number of shares of Common Stock as shall be necessary
to satisfy the Company’s obligation to issue shares of Common Stock hereunder (without regard to any limitation otherwise
contained herein with respect to the number of shares of Common Stock that may be acquirable upon exercise or exchange of this
Warrant). If, notwithstanding the foregoing, and not in limitation thereof, at any time while any of the Purchased Warrants remain
outstanding the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved shares of Common Stock to satisfy its obligation
to reserve for issuance upon exercise or exchange of the Purchased Warrants at least a number of shares of Common Stock equal
to the number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the exercise or exchange of all of the
Purchased Warrants then outstanding (the “Required Reserve Amount”) (an “Authorized Share Failure”),
then the Company shall immediately take all action necessary to increase the Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock
to an amount sufficient to allow the Company to reserve the Required Reserve Amount for all the Purchased Warrants then outstanding.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, as soon as practicable after the date of the occurrence of an Authorized
Share Failure, but in no event later than ninety (90) days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company
shall hold a meeting of its shareholders for the approval of an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. In
connection with such meeting, the Company shall provide each shareholder with a proxy statement and shall use its commercially
reasonable efforts to solicit its shareholders’ approval of such increase in authorized shares of Common Stock and to cause
its board of directors to recommend to the shareholders that they approve such proposal.
2.
ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES. The Exercise Price and number of Warrant Shares issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 2.
(a)
Stock Dividends and Splits. Without limiting any provision of Section 4, if the Company, at any time on or after the Issuance
Date, (i) pays a stock dividend on one or more classes of its then outstanding shares of Common Stock or otherwise makes a distribution
on any class of capital stock that is payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend,
recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its then outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares
or (iii) combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its then outstanding shares of Common
Stock into a smaller number of shares, then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the
numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator
shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to clause
(i) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled
to receive such dividend or distribution, and any adjustment pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph shall become effective
immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination. If any event requiring an adjustment under this paragraph
occurs during the period that an Exercise Price is calculated hereunder, then the calculation of such Exercise Price shall be
adjusted appropriately to reflect such event.
(b)
[RESERVED].
(c)
Number of Warrant Shares. Simultaneously with any adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section
2, the number of Warrant Shares that may be purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased or decreased proportionately,
so that after such adjustment the Aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder for the adjusted number of Warrant Shares shall be
the same as the Aggregate Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment (without regard to any limitations on
exercise contained herein). In addition, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (x) upon a Cashless Exercise
as set forth in Section 1(d) hereof, the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately following
such Cashless Exercise shall be equal to (i) the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant was exercisable immediately prior
to such Cashless Exercise less (ii) the number of Warrant Shares as to which such Cashless Exercise was exercised (such
number of Warrant Shares in this clause (ii) in respect of such Cashless Exercise being equal to “A” in such Cashless
Exercise formula in respect of such Cashless Exercise) and (y) the number of Warrant Shares issuable hereunder shall automatically
be increased, as necessary, to enable to the Company to comply with its obligations to issue the Net Number of shares of Common
Stock under Section 1(d) hereof upon any Cashless Exercise hereunder.
(d)
Calculations. All calculations under this Section 2 shall be made by rounding to the nearest 1/10000th of a cent and 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 Common Stock.
(e)
Other Events. In the event that the Company shall take any similar action to which the provisions hereof are not strictly
applicable, or, if applicable, would not operate to protect the Holder from dilution or if any event occurs of the type contemplated
by the provisions of this Section 2 but not expressly provided for by such provisions, then the Company’s board of directors
shall in good faith determine and implement an appropriate adjustment in the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares (if
applicable) so as to protect the rights of the Holder, provided that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 2(e) will increase
the Exercise Price or decrease the number of Warrant Shares as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 2, provided further
that if the Required Holders (as defined below) do not accept such adjustments as appropriately protecting its interests hereunder
against such dilution, then the Company’s board of directors and the Required Holders shall agree, in good faith, upon an
independent investment bank of nationally recognized standing to make such appropriate adjustments, whose determination shall
be final and binding and whose fees and expenses shall be borne by the Company.
3.
RIGHTS UPON DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 2 above, if the Company, at any
time prior to the Expiration Date, shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire
its assets) to all or substantially all of the 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, indebtedness, 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 Maximum Percentage) immediately before 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 the participation in such Distribution
(provided, however, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Distributions would result in the Holder
exceeding the Maximum Percentage, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (or
the beneficial ownership of any such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Distribution to such extent) and such Distribution
to such extent 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 Maximum Percentage), provided further, such Distribution shall be held in abeyance for the
benefit of the Holder until such time as the Holder exercises this Warrant (whether in whole or in part), and subject to the foregoing
proviso, upon each exercise of this Warrant the Company shall make such Distribution to the Holder with respect to each Warrant
Share for which this Warrant is so exercised until such time as this Warrant has been exercised in full).
4.
PURCHASE RIGHTS; FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTIONS.
(a)
Purchase Rights. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 2 above, if the Company, at any time prior to the Expiration
Date, 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 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 Maximum Percentage) 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, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result
in the Holder exceeding the Maximum Percentage, 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 Maximum Percentage), and provided further, that such Purchase Rights shall be held in abeyance
for the benefit of the Holder until such time as the Holder exercises this Warrant (whether in whole or in part), and subject
to the foregoing proviso, upon each exercise of this Warrant the Company shall deliver such Purchase Rights to the Holder with
respect to each Warrant Share for which this Warrant is so exercised until such time as this Warrant has been exercised in full).
(b)
Fundamental Transactions. The Company shall not enter into or be party to a Fundamental Transaction unless the Successor
Entity assumes in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant in accordance with the provisions of this Section
4(b) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders and approved by the
Required Holders prior to such Fundamental Transaction, including agreements confirming the obligations of the Successor Entity
as set forth in this paragraph (b) and (c) and elsewhere in this Warrant and an obligation to 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, including, without limitation, which is exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock 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 for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Warrant immediately
prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction). Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the election of the Holder upon
exercise of this Warrant following a Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall deliver to the Holder, in lieu of the
shares of Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property (except such items still issuable under Sections 3
and 4(a) above, which shall continue to be receivable thereafter)) issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant prior to the applicable
Fundamental Transaction, such shares of common stock (or its equivalent) of the Successor Entity (including its Parent Entity),
or other securities, cash, assets or other property, which the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of
the applicable Fundamental Transaction had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to the applicable Fundamental Transaction
(without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant).
(c)
Black Scholes Value—FT. Notwithstanding the foregoing and the provisions of Section 4(b) above, at the request of
the Holder delivered at any time commencing on the date of the consummation of any such Fundamental Transaction through the date
that is thirty (30) days after the consummation of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Company or the Successor Entity, at the
election of the Holder, shall purchase this Warrant from the Holder on the date of such request by paying to the Holder cash in
an amount equal to the Black Scholes Value—FT.
(d)
Application. The provisions of this Section 4 shall apply similarly and equally to successive Fundamental Transactions
and shall be applied as if this Warrant (and any such subsequent warrants issued hereunder) were fully exercisable and without
regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant (provided that the Holder shall continue to be entitled to the benefit
of the Maximum Percentage, applied however with respect to shares of capital stock registered under the 1934 Act and thereafter
receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (or any such other warrant)).
5.
NONCIRCUMVENTION. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its Charter (as defined
in the Underwriting Agreement), Bylaws (as defined in the Underwriting 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 Warrant, and will at all times in good faith carry out
all the provisions of this Warrant and take all action as may be required to protect the rights of the Holder. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the Company (i) shall not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon
the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, (ii) shall take all such actions as may be necessary or
appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock upon
the exercise of this Warrant, and (iii) shall, so long as any of the Purchased Warrants are outstanding, take all action necessary
to reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the
exercise of the Purchased Warrants, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be necessary to effect
the exercise of the Purchased Warrants then outstanding (without regard to any limitations on exercise).
6.
WARRANT HOLDER NOT DEEMED A SHAREHOLDER. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the Holder, solely in its capacity
as a holder of this Warrant, shall not be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of share capital of the
Company for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Warrant be construed to confer upon the Holder, solely in its capacity
as the Holder of this Warrant, any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent
to any corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue of stock, reclassification of stock, consolidation, merger, conveyance
or otherwise), receive notice of meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise, prior to the issuance to the
Holder of the Warrant Shares which it is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Warrant. In addition, nothing
contained in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing any liabilities on the Holder to purchase any securities (upon exercise
of this Warrant or otherwise) or as a shareholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors
of the Company. Notwithstanding this Section 6, the Company shall provide the Holder with copies of the same notices and other
information given to the shareholders of the Company generally, contemporaneously with the giving thereof to the shareholders;
provided however, that the Company shall not be obligated to provide such information if it is filed with the SEC through EDGAR
and available to the public through the EDGAR system.
7.

9.
AMENDMENT AND WAIVER. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, the provisions of this Warrant may be amended only
with the written consent of the Company and the Holders holding 100% of the then outstanding Warrants. Except as otherwise expressly
set forth herein, no waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving
party, and any waiver of any provision of this Warrant made in conformity with the provisions of this Section 9 shall be binding
on the Holder, provided that no such waiver shall be effective to the extent that it (1) applies to less than all Purchased Warrants
then outstanding (unless a party gives a waiver as to itself only) or (2) imposes any obligation or liability on the Holder without
the Holder’s prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in the Holder’s sole discretion). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 9 shall permit any amendment or waiver of any provision of Section 1(f).
10.
SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Warrant 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 Warrant so long as this Warrant 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).
11.
GOVERNING LAW. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with, and all questions concerning

The Company 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 (i) 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 or to enforce a judgment or other court ruling in favor of the Holder
or (ii) limit, or be deemed to limit, any provision of Section 13. THE COMPANY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE

or accounting firm (as the case may be) shall perform such disputed arithmetic calculation of the number of Warrant Shares based
solely on the Required Documentation that was delivered to such accountant or accounting firm (as the case may be) prior to the

by such accountant or accounting firm (as the case may be), neither the Company nor the Required Holders shall be entitled to
deliver or submit any written documentation or other support to such accountant or accounting firm (as the case may be) in connection
with such disputed arithmetic calculation of the number of Warrant Shares (other than the Required Documentation).

(c)
Miscellaneous. The Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that (i) this Section 13 constitutes an agreement to arbitrate
between the Company and the Required Holders (and constitutes an arbitration agreement) under § 7501, et seq. of the New
York Civil Practice Law and Rules (“CPLR”) and that each party is authorized to apply for an order to compel
arbitration pursuant to CPLR § 7503(a) in order to compel compliance with this Section 13, (ii) the terms of this Warrant
shall serve as the basis for the selected investment bank’s resolution of the applicable dispute, such investment bank shall
be entitled (and is hereby expressly authorized) to make all findings, determinations and the like that such investment bank determines
are required to be made by such investment bank in connection with its resolution of such dispute and in resolving such dispute
such investment bank shall apply such findings, determinations and the like to the terms of this Warrant, (iii) the terms of this
Warrant shall serve as the basis for the selected accountant’s or accounting firm’s performance of the applicable
arithmetic calculation of the number of Warrant Shares, (iv) for clarification purposes and without implication that the contrary
would otherwise be true, disputes relating to matters described in Section 13(a) shall be governed by Section 13(a) and not by
Section 13(b), (v) the Required Holders (and only the Required Holders), in their sole discretion, shall have the right to submit
any dispute described in this Section 13 to any state or federal court sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan in
lieu of utilizing the procedures set forth in this Section 13 and (vi) nothing in this Section 13 shall limit the Holder from
obtaining any injunctive relief or other equitable remedies (including, without limitation, with respect to any matters described
in Section 13(a) or Section 13(b)).
14.
REMEDIES, CHARACTERIZATION, OTHER OBLIGATIONS, BREACHES AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. The remedies provided in this Warrant shall
be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Warrant, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific
performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the right of the Holder to pursue damages for any
failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Warrant. The Company covenants to the Holder that there shall be no characterization
concerning this instrument other than as expressly provided herein. Amounts set forth or provided for herein with respect to payments,
exercises 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
of this Warrant shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any breach, without
the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required. The Company shall provide all information
and documentation to the Holder that is requested by the Holder to enable the Holder to confirm the Company’s compliance
with the terms and conditions of this Warrant (including, without limitation, compliance with Section 2 hereof). The issuance
of shares and certificates for shares as contemplated hereby upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to
the Holder or such shares for any issuance tax or other costs in respect thereof, provided that the Company shall not be required
to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any certificate in a name
other than the Holder or its agent on its behalf.

Re:
Registration Statement on Form S-1
Ladies
and Gentlemen:
We
have acted as counsel to Vapor Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with a Registration
Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-204599), (the “Registration Statement”), filed by the Company with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities
Act”), relating to the offer and sale by the Company of
|
(i) |
3,800,000
units (the “Units”), with each Unit consisting of (A) one-fourth of
a share of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001
per share (the “Preferred Stock”), with each share of Preferred Stock
convertible into five shares of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.001 per
share (the “Common Stock”; and the shares of Common Stock issuable
upon conversion of the Preferred Stock, the “Preferred Shares”) and
(B) 10 Series A Warrants, (the Series A Warrants collectively, the “Series A
Warrants”), with each Series A Warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock
(the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Series A Warrants, the “Warrant
Shares”), and
|
|
|
|
|
(ii) |
a
Unit Purchase Option (the “Unit Purchase Option”) to be issued to the representative of the underwriters
in the offering contemplated by the Registration Statement to purchase a number of Units (the “Representative’s
Units”) equal to an aggregate of 5% of the Units sold pursuant to the Registration Statement (the Preferred Stock
underlying the Representative’s Units, the “Representative’s Stock”; the shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion of the Representative’s Preferred Stock, the “Representative’s Preferred Shares”;
the Series A Warrants underlying the Representative’s Units, the “Representative’s Warrants”;
and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Representative’s Warrants, the “Representative’s
Warrant Shares” and, together with the Representative’s Preferred Shares, the “Representative’s
Shares”). |
We
have examined such documents and have reviewed such questions of law as we have considered necessary or appropriate for the purposes
of our opinions set forth below. In rendering our opinions set forth below, we have assumed the authenticity of all documents
submitted to us as originals, the genuineness of all signatures and the conformity to authentic originals of all documents submitted
to us as copies. We have also assumed the legal capacity for all purposes relevant hereto of all natural persons and, with respect

and authority (corporate or otherwise) to execute, deliver and perform such agreements or instruments, that such agreements or
instruments have been duly authorized by all requisite action (corporate or otherwise), executed and delivered by such parties
and that such agreements or instruments are the valid, binding and enforceable obligations of such parties. We have further assumed
that the Units will be priced by the Pricing Committee established by the authorizing resolutions adopted by the Company’s
Board of Directors in accordance with such resolutions. As to questions of fact material to our opinions, we have relied upon
certificates or comparable documents of officers and other representatives of the Company and of public officials.

of Designation of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designation”) to be filed
in connection with the offering contemplated by the Registration Statement and the Certificate of Incorporation, will be validly
issued, fully paid and non-assessable. |
|
|
|
|
6. |

as described in the Registration Statement, will constitute the valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against
the Company in accordance with its terms. |
|
|
|
|
7. |
The
Representative’s Units, when issued, will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against
the Company in accordance with their terms. |
|
|
|
|
8. |

|
9. |

are issued and delivered by the Company upon exercise of the Representative’s Warrant Shares in accordance with the
terms thereof and the Certificate of Incorporation, including, without limitation, the payment in full of applicable consideration,
the Representative’s Warrant Shares will be validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable. |

|
10. |

(a) |
Our
opinions set forth in paragraphs 1, 2, 6, 7 and 8 above are subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,

fraudulent conveyance laws). |
|
|
|
|
(b) |
Our
opinions set forth in paragraphs 1, 2, 6, 7 and 8 above are subject to the effect of general principles of equity,

|
|
|
|
(c) |
Our
opinions set forth in paragraphs 1, 2, 6, 7 and 8 above are subject to limitations regarding the availability of indemnification
and contribution where such indemnification or contribution may be limited by applicable law or the application of principles
of public policy. |
|
|
|
|
(d) |
We
express no opinion as to the enforceability of (i) provisions that relate to choice of law, forum selection or submission
to jurisdiction (including, without limitation, any express or implied waiver of any objection to venue in any court or of
any objection that a court is an inconvenient forum) to the extent that the validity, binding effect or enforceability of
any such provision is to be determined by any court other than a state court of the State of Florida, (ii) waivers by the
Company of any statutory or constitutional rights or remedies, (iii) terms which excuse any person or entity from liability
for, or require the Company to indemnify such person or entity against, such person’s or entity’s negligence or
willful misconduct or (iv) obligations to pay any prepayment premium, default interest rate, early termination fee or other
form of liquidated damages, if the payment of such premium, interest rate, fee or damages may be construed as unreasonable
in relation to actual damages or disproportionate to actual damages suffered as a result of such prepayment, default or termination. |
|
|
|
|
(e) |
We
draw your attention to the fact that, under certain circumstances, the enforceability of terms to the effect that provisions
may not be waived or modified except in writing may be limited. |
Our
opinions expressed above are limited to the laws of the State of Florida and the Delaware General Corporation Law.
We
hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement, and to the reference to our firm under
the heading “Legal Matters” in the prospectus constituting part of the Registration Statement. In giving this consent,
we do not admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or
