1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 7, 2020, the Southern Ohio Port Authority (“SOPA”) issued certain revenue Bonds (as defined below) pursuant to an Indenture of Trust dated as of October 1, 2020 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Indenture”), between SOPA and UMB Bank, N.A., as Trustee (“Trustee”), and loaned the proceeds from their sale to PureCycle: Ohio LLC (“PCO”), an Ohio limited liability company and indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of PureCycle Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”), pursuant to a Loan Agreement dated as of October 1, 2020, between SOPA and PCO (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”) to be used to, among other things, acquire, construct and equip the Company’s first commercial-scale recycling facility in Lawrence County, Ohio (the “Ironton Facility”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture.

The Bonds were offered in three series, including (i) Exempt Facility Revenue Bonds (PureCycle Project), Tax-Exempt Series 2020A (“Series 2020A Bonds”); (ii) Subordinate Exempt Facility Revenue Bonds (PureCycle Project), Tax-Exempt Series 2020B (“Series 2020B Bonds”); and (iii) Subordinated Exempt Facility Revenue Bonds (PureCycle Project), Taxable Series 2020C (“Series 2020C Bonds” and, together with the Series 2020A Bonds and the Series 2020B Bonds, the “Bonds”).

All of the Bonds are Outstanding under the Indenture. PureCycle Technologies LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“PCT LLC”), purchased $246,750,000 in aggregate principal amount of Bonds Outstanding under the Indenture on March 5, 2024, of which $216,750,000 in aggregate principal amount are Series 2020A Bonds.

On May 7, 2024, PCT LLC and Pure Plastic LLC (“Pure Plastic”), a Delaware limited liability company, executed a bond purchase agreement (as subsequently amended and restated to reflect the appropriate denomination of bonds, the “Amended and Restated Bond Purchase Agreement”), whereby Pure Plastic purchased approximately $94.3 million in aggregate par amount of Bonds owned by PCT LLC (the “Purchased Bonds”), including (i) a portion of the Series 2020A Bonds, (ii) all of the Series 2020B Bonds, and (iii) all of the Series 2020C Bonds, at a purchase price of $800 per $1,000 principal amount of the Purchased Bonds. Affiliates of Pure Plastic are greater than 5% beneficial owners of the Company.

On May 10, 2024, Pure Plastic executed a Payoff and Release Letter (the “Payoff and Release Letter”), which memorialized extinguishment of the Company’s obligations under the $40 million term loan provided to the Company pursuant to the Term Loan Credit Agreement (“Term Loan Credit Agreement”) dated as of May 8, 2023, and subsequently amended, among the Guarantors (as defined therein) and Pure Plastic (as Lender, Administrative Agent, and Security Agent), which was scheduled to mature on December 31, 2025 (the “Term Loan Facility”).

The Company was also required to pay a 12% prepayment premium on the outstanding principal and interest paid in order to prepay the Term Loan Facility (the “Prepayment Premium”), plus certain expenses. The Company issued warrants (“Series B Warrants”) to Pure Plastic pursuant to the Series B Warrant Agreement to satisfy the Prepayment Premium (the “Series B Warrant Agreement”). The Series B Warrants entitle Pure Plastic to purchase approximately 3.1 million shares of the Company's Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share any time after six months from the execution of the Series B Warrant Agreement. The Series B Warrants are expected to expire on December 1, 2030.

The Company is also party to a Revolving Credit Facility pursuant to a credit agreement (the "Revolving Credit Agreement") dated as of March 15, 2023, with PureCycle Technologies Holdings Corp. and PCT LLC (the “Guarantors”), Sylebra Capital Partners Master Fund, LTD, Sylebra Capital Parc Master Fund, and Sylebra Capital Menlo Master Fund (collectively, the “Lenders”), and Madison Pacific Trust Limited (the “Administrative Agent” and “Security Agent”). In conjunction with PCT LLC’s sale of approximately $94.3 million of Bonds, on May 10, 2024, the Company, the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent, the Security Agent and the Lenders executed a Limited Consent and Fifth Amendment to the Credit Agreement (“Limited Consent and Fifth Amendment to Credit Agreement”) to permit the Disposition of Bonds (as defined therein), as well as to provide certain administrative revisions to eliminate the Intecreditor Agreement (as defined therein) and references to the Term Loan Credit Agreement. The lenders and their affiliates are greater than 5% beneficial owners of the Company.

The foregoing descriptions of the Amended and Restated Bond Purchase Agreement, Payoff and Release Letter, Series B Warrant Agreement, and Limited Consent and Fifth Amendment to Credit Agreement are not complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended and Restated Bond Purchase Agreement, Payoff and Release Letter, Series B Warrant Agreement, and Limited Consent and Fifth Amendment to Credit Agreement, which are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 through 10.4.

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

The information contained under “Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement” above is incorporated here by reference. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture), the amount outstanding under the Bonds may be accelerated.


Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

The information contained under “Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement” above is incorporated here by reference. The Company offered and sold the Series B Warrants to Pure Plastic in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Regulation D thereunder. Pure Plastic represented that it is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act and that it acquired the securities for investment purposes, and not with a current view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution, resale, pledging, fractionalization, subdivision or other disposition thereof. The securities are not registered under the Securities Act and such securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws.

The Company held its Annual Meeting of Shareholders on Wednesday, May 8, 2024, during which the following matters were submitted to a vote of the shareholders, with voting results listed below.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned, being the purchaser (the “Purchaser”) of the above-referenced Bonds from PureCycle Technologies LLC (the “Seller”) on this date, hereby represents and acknowledges to you as follows:

1.
The Purchaser has purchased the Bonds on the date hereof at the price of $800 per $1,000 principal amount of the Bonds purchased, said Bonds having been issued pursuant to that certain Indenture of Trust, dated as of October 1, 2020 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Trust Indenture”), between the Southern Ohio Port Authority (the “Issuer”) and UMB Bank, N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee”).
2.
The Purchaser has sufficient knowledge and experience in business and financial matters in general, and investments such as the Bonds in particular, to enable the Purchaser to evaluate the Bonds, the credit of PureCycle: Ohio LLC (the “Company”) and the Seller, the collateral and the terms of the Bonds. The Purchaser has made its own independent credit analysis and decision to purchase the Bonds based on its independent examination and evaluation of the Limited Offering Memorandum dated September 23, 2020 relating to the Bonds and the documents listed in paragraph 4 hereof.
3.
The Purchaser acknowledges that no credit rating has been sought or obtained with respect to the Bonds.
4.
The Purchaser acknowledges that it has been offered copies of the Financing Documents (as defined in the Trust Indenture), and such financial and other information by the Seller and the Company and has been provided the opportunity to ask such questions as Purchaser deems

 


 

necessary to enable the Purchaser to make an informed investment decision with respect to the purchase of the Bonds.
5.
The Purchaser acknowledges that at this date the Seller is the Majority Holder of Bonds under the terms of the Trust Indenture, and that upon execution and delivery of the Fifth Supplemental Indenture described in the This Agreement of even date herewith, by and between the Seller and the Purchaser, the definition of Majority Holders in the Trust Indenture will be revised and the Seller will no longer be the Majority Holder under the Trust Indenture.
6.
The Purchaser’s investment in the Bonds constitutes an investment that is suitable for and consistent with its investment program, and the Purchaser is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Bonds, including a complete loss of such investment.
7.
The Purchaser is an “Accredited Investor” within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or a “Qualified Institutional Buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act.
8.
The Purchaser is purchasing the Bonds for investment purposes, and not with a current view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution, resale, pledging, fractionalization, subdivision or other disposition thereof, provided that, although the Purchaser does not intend at this time to dispose of all or any part of the Bonds, the Seller acknowledges that the Purchaser has the right to sell and transfer the Bonds in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Trust Indenture. The Purchaser acknowledges that it is solely responsible for compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, and covenants and agrees with the Seller that it will comply with the Trust Indenture and all applicable federal or state securities laws then in effect with respect to any subsequent sale, transfer or other disposition of the Bonds, and will notify any subsequent purchaser of Bonds of the resale restriction referred to in the Trust Indenture.
9.
The Purchaser acknowledges that the Bonds (i) have not been registered under the Securities Act, and (ii) have not been registered or qualified for sale under any state securities or “Blue Sky” laws, and that the Trust Indenture has not been qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended.
10.
The Purchaser acknowledges that you will rely upon the accuracy and truthfulness of the representations and warranties contained herein and hereby consents to such reliance.

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 holders of a majority in interest of the Series B Warrants then outstanding and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.

Black Scholes Value” means the value of this Series B Warrant based on the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model obtained from the “OV” function on Bloomberg determined as of the day of consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction for pricing purposes and reflecting (A) a risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date, (B) an expected volatility equal to the greater of 100% and the 100 day volatility obtained from the HVT function on Bloomberg (determined utilizing a 365 day annualization factor) as of the Trading Day immediately following the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, (C) the underlying price per share used in such calculation shall be the greater of (i) the sum of the price per share being offered in cash, if any, plus the value of any non-cash consideration, if any, being offered in such Fundamental Transaction and (ii) the highest VWAP during the period beginning on the Trading Day immediately preceding the announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction (or the consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, if earlier) and ending on the Trading Day of the Holder’s request pursuant to this Section 3(d) and (D) a remaining option time equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date, and (E) a zero cost of borrow. The payment of the Black Scholes Value will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds (or such other consideration) within the later of (i) five business days of the Holder’s election and (ii) the date of consummation of the 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 Series B 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 Series B Warrant a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Series B 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 Series B Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Series B 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 Series B Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Series B Warrant referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Series B Warrant with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein.

Within the earlier of (i) two (2) Trading Days and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period (as defined in Section 2(d)(i) herein) following the date of exercise as aforesaid, the Holder shall deliver the aggregate Exercise Price for the shares specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank unless the cashless exercise procedure specified in Section 2(c) below is specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise. No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise be required.
(ii)
Exercise Procedures. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, subject to Section 2(d)(ii), the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Series B Warrant to the Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and this Series B Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Series B Warrant to the Company for cancellation within three (3) Trading Days of the date on which the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company (with a copy to the Warrant Agent). Partial exercises of this Series B Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise within one (1) business day of receipt of such notice. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Series B Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
(iii)
Maximum Percentage. The Holder may notify the Company in writing in the event it elects to be subject to the provisions contained in this Section 2(a)(iii); provided however, no Holder shall be subject to this Section 2(a)(iii) unless he, she or it makes such election. If the election is made by the Holder, the Warrant Agent shall not effect the exercise of all or a portion of this Series B Warrant, and such Holder shall not have the right to exercise all or a portion of this Series B Warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, such person (together with such person’s affiliates), to the Warrant Agent’s actual knowledge, would beneficially own in excess of 19.9% (or such other amount as a Holder may specify) (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such person and its affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of all or a portion of this Series B Warrant with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude Common Stock that would be issuable upon (x) exercise of the remaining, unexercised

4

 


portion of this Series B Warrant beneficially owned by such person and its affiliates and (y) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company beneficially owned by such person and its affiliates (including, without limitation, any convertible notes or convertible preferred shares or warrants), subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this paragraph, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. For purposes of this Series B Warrant, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (1) the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Current Report on Form 8-K or other public filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) as the case may be, (2) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (3) any other notice by the Company setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. For any reason at any time, upon the written request of the Holder, the Company shall, within five (5) Business Days, confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. By written notice to the Company, the Holder may from time to time increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage applicable to it to any other percentage specified in such notice; provided, however, that any such increase shall not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company.
(b)
Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of Common Stock under this Series B Warrant shall be $11.50, subject to adjustment hereunder (the “Exercise Price”).
(c)
Cashless Exercise. If at any time after the Initial Exercise Date, there is no effective registration statement registering, or the prospectus contained therein is not available for the resale of the Warrant Shares by the holder, then this Series B Warrant may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:

 

(A) =

as applicable: (i) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is (1) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof on a day that is not a Trading Day or (2) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof on a Trading Day prior to the opening of “regular trading hours” (as defined in Rule 600(b)(68) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, (ii) at the option of the Holder, either (y) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise or (z) the Bid Price of the Common Stock on the principal Trading Market as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (“Bloomberg”) as of the time of the Holder’s execution of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of

5

 


 

 

Exercise is executed during “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;

 

(B) =

the Exercise Price of this Series B Warrant, as adjusted hereunder; and

 

(X) =

the number of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of this Series B Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Series B Warrant if such exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise.

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 characteristics of this Series B Warrant being exercised, and the holding period of the Warrant Shares being issued may be tacked on to the holding period of this Series B Warrant. 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) the Warrant Shares are eligible for resale by the Holder without volume or manner-of-sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming cashless exercise of this Series B Warrant), 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 by the date that is the earliest of (i) two (2) Trading Days after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise, (ii) one (1) Trading Day after delivery of the aggregate Exercise Price to the Company and (iii) 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”). 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 Series B Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the Warrant Shares, provided that

6

 


payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received within the earlier of (i) two (2) Trading Days and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period following delivery of the Notice of Exercise. 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), $5.00 per Trading Day (increasing to $10.00 per Trading Day on the fifth Trading Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) 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 Series B 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.
(ii)
Delivery of New Series B Warrants Upon Exercise. If this Series B Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request of the Holder and upon surrender of this Series B Warrant certificate, at the time of delivery of the Warrant Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Series B Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Series B Warrant, which new Series B Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Series B 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 this Series B Warrant and

7

 


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 $11,000 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 $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. 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 this Series B Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
(v)
No Fractional Warrant Shares, Shares or Scrip. No fractional Warrant Shares, shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Series B Warrant. To the extent the Holder would be entitled to a fractional Warrant Share, the Company shall round down to the nearest whole number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder. 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 Series B Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto as Exhibit B 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 Series B Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof.

Section 3.
Certain Adjustments.
(a)
Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Series B 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 Series B 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 Series B Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Series B 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 Series B Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof) 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.
(c)
Pro Rata Distributions. During such time as this Series B 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 Series B 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 Series B Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof) 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

9

 


holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution.
(d)
Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Series B 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, directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company 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, (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 more than 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (not including any shares of Common Stock held by the other person or other persons making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other persons making or party to, such stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination) (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent exercise of this Series B 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 Series B 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 Series B Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation in Section 2(e) on the exercise of this Series B 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 Series B Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event of a Fundamental Transaction, the Company or any Successor Entity (as defined below) shall, at the Holder’s option, exercisable at any time concurrently with, or within 30 days after, the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction (or, if later, the date of the public

10

 


announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction), purchase this Series B Warrant from the Holder by paying to the Holder an amount of cash equal to the Black Scholes Value (as defined below) of the remaining unexercised portion of this Series B Warrant on the date of the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction; provided, however, that, if the Fundamental Transaction is not within the Company’s control, including not approved by the Company’s Board of Directors, Holder shall only be entitled to receive from the Company or any Successor Entity the same type or form of consideration (and in the same proportion), at the Black Scholes Value of the unexercised portion of this Series B Warrant, that is being offered and paid to the holders of Common Stock of the Company in connection with the Fundamental Transaction, whether that consideration be in the form of cash, stock or any combination thereof, or whether the holders of Common Stock are given the choice to receive from among alternative forms of consideration in connection with the Fundamental Transaction; provided, further, that if holders of Common Stock of the Company are not offered or paid any consideration in such Fundamental Transaction, such holders of Common Stock will be deemed to have received common stock of the Successor Entity (which Successor Entity may be the Company following such Fundamental Transaction) in such Fundamental Transaction.
(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 facsimile or 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 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 facsimile or email to the Holder at its last facsimile number or email address as it shall appear upon the Warrant Register of the Company, at least 20 calendar days prior to the

11

 


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 Series B Warrant constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company, 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 Series B 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.
(g)
Voluntary Adjustment By Company. Subject to the rules and regulations of the Trading Market, the Company may at any time during the term of this Series B Warrant, subject to the prior written consent of the Holder, reduce the then current Exercise Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the board of directors of the Company.
Section 4.
Redemption.
(a)
Redemption. Subject to Section 4(d), at any time following January 1, 2028 all (and not less than all) of the outstanding Series B Warrants may be redeemed, in whole and not in part, at the option of the Company, at any time after the Series B Warrants become exercisable, and prior to their expiration, at the office of the Warrant Agent, upon the notice referred to in Section 6(b), at the price of $0.01 per Warrant Share (“Redemption Price”); provided that the last sales price of the shares of Common Stock has been equal to or greater than $18.00 per share (subject to adjustment for splits, dividends, recapitalizations and other similar events) for any twenty (20) Trading Days within a thirty (30) Trading Day period commencing after the Series B Warrants become exercisable and ending on the third business day prior to the date on which notice of redemption is given and provided further that there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the shares of Common Stock underlying the Series B Warrants for each day in the 30-Trading Day period and continuing each day thereafter until the Redemption Date (defined below).
(b)
Date Fixed for, and Notice of, Redemption. In the event the Company shall elect to redeem all of the Series B Warrants, the Company shall fix a date for the redemption (the “Redemption Date”). Notice of redemption shall be mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid, by the Company not less than 30 days prior to the date fixed for

12

 


redemption to the holders of the Series B Warrants to be redeemed at their last addresses as they shall appear on the Warrant Register (defined below). Any notice mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the holder received such notice.
(c)
Exercise After Notice of Redemption. This Series B Warrant may be exercised in accordance with Section 2 at any time after notice of redemption shall have been given by the Company pursuant to Section 6(b) hereof and prior to the Redemption Date; provided that the Company may require the Holder to exercise this Series B Warrant to elect “cashless exercise” in accordance with the procedures of Section 2(c), and the Holder must exercise this Series B Warrant on a cashless basis if the Company so requires. On and after the Redemption Date, the Holder of this Series B Warrant shall have no further rights except to receive, upon surrender of this Series B Warrant, the Redemption Price.
(d)
No Other Rights to Cash Payment. Except for a redemption in accordance with this Section 4, the Holder shall not be entitled to any cash payment whatsoever from the Company in connection with the ownership, exercise or surrender of this Series B Warrant.
(e)
Exclusion of Certain Series B Warrants. The Company understands that the redemption rights provided for by this Section 4 apply only to outstanding Series B Warrants. To the extent a person holds rights to purchase Series B Warrants, such purchase rights shall not be extinguished by redemption. However, once such purchase rights are exercised, the Company may redeem the Series B Warrants issued upon such exercise provided that the criteria for redemption is met.
Section 5.
Transfer of Series B Warrant.
(a)
Transferability. Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws, this Series B Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Series B Warrant at the principal office of the Company or its designated Warrant Agent, which shall initially be the Company, together with a written assignment of this Series B 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 Series B Warrant or Series B 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 Series B Warrant evidencing the portion of this Series B Warrant not so assigned, and this Series B Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Series B Warrant to the Company unless the Holder has assigned this Series B Warrant in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Series B 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 Series B Warrant in full. The Series B Warrant, if properly assigned in accordance herewith, may be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Series B Warrant issued.

13

 


(b)
New Series B Warrants. This Series B Warrant may be divided or combined with other Series B Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the Company, together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Series B Warrants are to be issued, signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section 5(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Series B Warrant or Series B Warrants in exchange for the Series B Warrant or Series B Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance with such notice. All Series B Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the original issuance date and shall be identical with this Series B Warrant except as to the number of Warrant Shares issuable pursuant thereto.
(c)
Series B Warrant Register. The Company shall register this Series B Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the “Series B Warrant Register”), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company and the Warrant Agent may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Series B 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. The Company has appointed the Warrant Agent to maintain the Series B Warrant Register, as the Company’s agent. The Company shall remain responsible for the contents of the Series B Warrant Register, notwithstanding the appointment of a Warrant Agent. The Company shall provide thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Holder of any appointment of or change in Warrant Agent and the new Warrant Agent’s contact information, including if the Company shall itself directly maintain the Series B Warrant Register after a third-party Warrant Agent has been appointed.
Section 6.
Miscellaneous.
(a)
No Rights as Stockholder Until Exercise; No Settlement in Cash. This Series B 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, 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 Series B Warrant.
(b)
Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Series B 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 Series B 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 this Series B Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Series B Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Series B 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

14

 


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 this Series B 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 Series B Warrant. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Series B 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 Series B 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 Series B Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Series B 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 Series B 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 Series B 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 Series B 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 Series B Warrant.

Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Series B 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. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Series B Warrant shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated

15

 


by this Series B Warrant (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York. Each party 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 (including with respect to the enforcement of this Series B Warrant), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such action or proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient venue for such proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Series B Warrant 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 other manner permitted by law. If either party shall commence an action or proceeding to enforce any provisions of this Series B Warrant, the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the non-prevailing party for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.
(f)
Restrictions. The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Series B Warrant, if not registered or if 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 the 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 Series B Warrant, if the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Series B 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. Any notice or communication required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and either delivered personally, emailed or sent by overnight mail via a reputable overnight carrier, or sent by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, and shall be deemed to be given and received (i) when so delivered personally, (ii) when sent, with no mail undeliverable or other rejection notice, if sent by email, or (iii) three (3) business days after the date of mailing to the address below or to such other address or addresses as such person may hereafter designate by notice given hereunder:

(i)
Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Holder to exercise this Series B 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 Series B 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 Series B 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 Series B 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 Series B Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of any Holder from time to time of this Series B Warrant and shall be enforceable by the Holder or holder of Warrant Shares.
(l)
Amendment.

All other modifications or amendments to this Series B Warrant and the other Series B Warrants, including any amendment to increase the Exercise Price or move the Termination Date, shall require the written consent of the holders of a majority in interest of the then outstanding Series B Warrants; provided that any material and adverse modification, waiver or termination of the economic terms of the transactions contemplated under this Series B Warrant shall require the prior written consent of the Holder of this Series B Warrant.
(m)
Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Series B Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Series B 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 Series B Warrant.

SECTION 5.
[Reserved].
SECTION 6.
Ratification and Reaffirmation; Effect of this Amendment.

Each Loan Party hereby consents to the amendments effected hereby and confirms and agrees that, notwithstanding the effectiveness of this Amendment, each Loan Document to which such Loan Party is a party is, and the obligations of such Loan Party contained in the Credit Agreement and in any other Loan Document to which it is a party are, and shall continue to be, in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects, in each case as amended by this Amendment. For greater certainty and without limiting the foregoing, each Loan Party hereby (I) confirms that (i) the existing security interests granted by such Loan Party in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to the Loan Documents (as defined in the Credit Agreement) in the Collateral described therein shall continue to secure the obligations of the Loan Parties under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as and to the extent provided therein and (ii) neither the modifications effected pursuant to this Amendment nor the execution, delivery, performance or effectiveness of this Amendment (A) impairs the validity, effectiveness or priority of the Liens granted pursuant to any Loan Document, and such Liens continue unimpaired with the same priority to secure repayment of all Obligations, whether heretofore or hereafter incurred or (B) requires that any new filings be made or other action taken to perfect or to maintain the perfection of such Liens and (II) ratifies its guarantee of the Obligations as provided in any Guaranty that is effective immediately prior to the date hereof.
(b)
Except as expressly set forth or referenced herein, this Amendment shall not by implication or otherwise limit, impair, constitute a waiver or novation of, or otherwise affect the rights and remedies of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or the Security Agent under, the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, and shall not alter, modify, amend or in any way affect any of the terms, conditions, obligations,

3

 


 

covenants or agreements contained in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or any other provision of the Credit Agreement or of any other Loan Document, all of which are ratified and affirmed in all respects and shall continue in full force and effect. Nothing herein shall be deemed to entitle any party hereto to a consent to, or a waiver, amendment, modification or other change of, any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document in similar or different circumstances.
(c)
Unless the context otherwise requires, from and after the date hereof, each reference in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereunder”, “hereof”, “herein”, or words of like import, and each reference to the “Credit Agreement” or words of like import in any other Loan Document shall be deemed a reference to the Amended Credit Agreement.

Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Amendment by facsimile or other electronic imaging (including in .pdf format) means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in this Amendment shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

SECTION 10.
