Item 3.02

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

On October 5, 2023, Complete Solaria, Inc. (the “Company”) amended certain warrants, dated November 2, 2022, originally issued by the Company to six warrantholders (the “Holders”), which warrants are exercisable for (a) an aggregate of 1,486,268 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), or (b) if designated and issued, a future series of preferred stock of the Company (the “Amendments”). The Amendments were made in connection with the Holders assigning loans they previously made to SolarCA LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (successor in interest to The Solaria Corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company) in order to provide the Holders with the benefits of the protective provisions of the original warrants to fix at a set number the number of shares of Common Stock issuable thereunder, as well as the exercise price per share. Pursuant to the Amendments, the warrants may be exercised for (a) Common Stock, at an exercise price of $0.75 per share, or (b) if designated and issued, a future series of preferred stock, at an exercise of 25% of the lowest price the Company receives for such share of future series of preferred stock. In connection with the Amendments, the Company agreed to provide the warrantholders with certain registration rights pursuant to that certain A&R Registration Rights Agreement, dated July 18, 2023, which the was previously filed by the Company as Exhibit 4.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 24, 2023.

The Company claims an exemption from registration for the Amendments, described above pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as a transaction by an issuer not involving a public offering. Each Holder represented that it is an “accredited investor,” as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act.

(iii) the execution by Holder and the Company of the investment documents to which other holders of Series D-7 Preferred Stock or Future Round Stock are bound, which may include without limitation a Series D-7 Preferred Stock purchase agreement, an investor rights agreement, a right of first refusal and co-sale agreement, and a voting agreement.

(b) Net Issue Exercise. In lieu of making the payment specified in Section 2(a)(ii)(A), if the fair market value of one share of Stock is greater than the Exercise Price (at the date of calculation as set forth below), Holder may elect to receive a number of shares of Stock equal to the value of this Warrant (or of any portion of this Warrant being canceled), in which event the Company shall issue to Holder that number of shares of Stock computed using the following formula:

 

 

X

  =    Y (A – B)      
   A          

Where:

 

  X    =    The number of shares of Stock to be issued to Holder
  Y    =    The number of shares of Stock purchasable under this Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised, the portion of the Warrant being canceled (at the date of such calculation)
  A    =    The fair market value of one share of Stock (at the date of such calculation)
  B    =    The Exercise Price

For purposes of the calculation above, the fair market value of one share of Stock shall be determined by the Board acting in good faith; provided, however, that:

(i) if the Warrant is exercised in connection with an IPO, the fair market value per share of Stock shall be the product of (x) the initial price to public specified in the final prospectus of the IPO and (y) the number of shares of Common Stock into which each share of Stock is convertible at the time of such exercise; and

(ii) if the exercise is after, and not in connection with, the IPO and:

(1) if the Common Stock is traded on a securities exchange, the fair market value shall be the product of (x) the average of the closing prices over a five day period ending three days before the day the current fair market value of the securities is being determined and (y) the number of shares of Common Stock into which each share of Stock is convertible at the time of such exercise; or

(2) if the Common Stock is traded over-the-counter, the fair market value shall be the product of (x) the average of the closing bid and asked prices quoted on the NASDAQ system (or similar system) over the five day period ending three days before the day the current fair market value of the securities is being determined and (y) the number of shares of Common Stock into which each share of Stock is convertible at the time of such exercise; or

(3) if neither (1) nor (2) is applicable, then the fair market value shall be as determined in good faith by the Board unless the Company shall become subject to a Merger Event, in which case the fair market value shall be as determined in Section 2(b)(iii); and

(iii) if the Warrant is exercised in connection with a Merger Event, the entirety of the cash and value of the property that could potentially be paid or distributed to the Company’s stockholders (in their capacities as such) in connection with such transaction, including any earn outs, holdbacks or other contingent consideration (whether or not actually received) and distributable to holders of the Stock into which the Warrant is then exercisable shall be the basis for determining fair market value of the Stock.

(c) Certificates. The rights under this Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised and the Stock issuable upon such exercise shall be deemed to have been issued immediately prior to the close of business on the date this Warrant is exercised in accordance with its terms, and the person entitled to receive the Stock issuable upon such exercise shall be treated for all purposes as the holder of record of such Stock as of the close of business on such date, and, as promptly as reasonably practicable on or after such date, but in no event greater than three (3) Business Days, the Company shall deliver a certificate evidencing such Stock (if such Stock is certificated) and cause appropriate book entries to be made in its records to reflect the same.

(d) No Fractional shares of Stock or Scrip. No fractional shares of Stock shall be issued upon the exercise of the rights under this Warrant. In lieu of such fractional share of Stock to which Holder would otherwise be entitled, the Company shall make a cash payment equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by such fraction.

(e) Reserved.

(f) Reservation of shares of Stock. The Company agrees during the term the rights under this Warrant are exercisable to take all reasonable action to reserve and keep available from its authorized and unissued Series D-7 Preferred Stock (or, Future Round Stock, as the case may be) for the purpose of effecting the exercise of this Warrant such number of shares of Stock (and Common Stock for issuance on conversion of such Stock) as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the exercise of the rights under this Warrant; and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued Series D-7 Preferred Stock, or Future Round Stock, as the case may be (and Common Stock for issuance on conversion of such Stock) shall not be sufficient for purposes of the exercise of this Warrant in accordance with its terms, without limitation of such other remedies as may be available to Holder, the Company shall increase its authorized and unissued Series D-7 Preferred Stock or Future Round Stock, as the case may be (and Common Stock for issuance on conversion of such Stock) to a number of shares of Stock as shall be sufficient for such purposes.

(g) Constructive Exercise. If there are insufficient shares of Stock into which this Warrant may be exercised at the closing of the IPO or a Merger Event, Holder shall be entitled to exchange this Warrant upon consummation of the IPO or Merger Event, as applicable, for the same consideration Holder would have been entitled to receive had a sufficient number of shares of Stock been available for issuance upon exercise of this Warrant notwithstanding that such number of shares Stock are not available, in all cases taking into account adjustments to the Exercise Price and Warrant Coverage as provided herein.

3. Replacement of the Warrant. Subject to the receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company or, in the case of mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company shall execute and deliver, in lieu of this Warrant, a new warrant of like tenor and amount.

requirements of the Securities Act is available, provided that no legal opinion shall be required for a transfer to any Affiliate of the Holder. By its acceptance of this Warrant, such transferee that becomes a Holder hereby makes to the Company each of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 5 and Section 11 hereof and agrees to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Warrant as if the original Holder hereof.

(b) Restricted Transfers. Unless an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement has occurred and is continuing, Holder shall not, without the Company’s prior written consent, sell or otherwise transfer this Warrant or any Underlying Securities to (i) a direct competitor of the Company, or (ii) any customer, distributor or supplier of the Company if, as determined in good faith by the Board, such transfer would result in such customer, distributor or supplier receiving information that would place the Company at a competitive disadvantage with respect to such customer, distributor or supplier. This Section 5(b) shall terminate upon the earlier of the IPO and the first public sale of any of the Company’s equity securities.

(c) Securities Law Legend. This Warrant and its Underlying Securities shall (unless otherwise permitted by the provisions of this Warrant) be stamped, imprinted, or electronically notated with a legend substantially similar to the following (in addition to any legend required by state securities laws):

THIS WARRANT AND THE UNDERLYING SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE. THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER THE ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OR AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM. THE ISSUER OF THESE SECURITIES MAY REQUIRE AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER THAT SUCH OFFER, SALE, TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR HYPOTHECATION OTHERWISE COMPLIES WITH THE ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THIS WARRANT MUST BE SURRENDERED TO THE COMPANY OR ITS TRANSFER AGENT AS A CONDITION PRECEDENT TO THE SALE, TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR HYPOTHECATION OF ANY INTEREST IN ANY OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY.

(d) Instructions Regarding Transfer Restrictions. Holder consents to the Company making a notation on its records and giving instructions to any transfer agent in order to implement the restrictions on transfer established in this Section 5.

- 7 -


(a) Merger or Reorganization. If at any time there shall be Merger Event, then, prior to closing of such Merger Event, lawful provision shall be made so that Holder shall thereafter be entitled to receive at its election, upon exercise of this Warrant, (i) the number of shares of Stock or Underlying Securities that Holder would have received in connection with such Merger Event if Holder had exercised this Warrant immediately prior to the Merger Event or (ii) the number of shares of stock or other equity interests Holder would be entitled to receive if the surviving entity in such Merger Event assumed this Warrant. In any such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors and reasonably acceptable to Holder) shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Warrant with respect to the rights and interests of Holder after the Merger Event to the end that the provisions of this Warrant (including adjustments of the Exercise Price, the ability of Holder to elect the class and series of Stock as set forth in the definition thereof, and adjustments to ensure that the provisions of this Section 6 shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as possible, to the purchase rights under this Warrant in relation to any Underlying Securities thereafter acquirable upon exercise of such purchase rights) shall continue to be applicable in their entirety, and to the greatest extent possible. Without limiting the foregoing, in connection with any Merger Event, upon the closing thereof, the successor or surviving entity shall assume the obligations of this Warrant. In connection with a Merger Event and upon Holder’s written election to the Company, the Company shall cause this Warrant to be exchanged for the consideration that Holder would have received if Holder had chosen to exercise its right to have shares issued pursuant to the Net Issuance provisions of Section 2(b) without actually exercising such right, acquiring such shares and exchanging such shares for such consideration. The provisions of this Section 6(a) shall similarly apply to successive Merger Events. The requirements of this Section 6(a) shall not be applicable in connection with a Qualified Merger which, pursuant to Section 7, would result in the termination of this Warrant.

(b) Reclassification of shares of Stock. Except for Merger Events subject to Section 6(a), if the Company at any time shall, by combination, reclassification, exchange or subdivision of securities or otherwise, change any of the securities as to which purchase rights under this Warrant exist into the same or a different number of securities of any other class or classes, this Warrant shall thereafter represent the right to acquire such number and kind of securities as would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the securities which were subject to the purchase rights under this Warrant immediately prior to such combination, reclassification, exchange, subdivision or other change; provided that, to the extent the Holder has the right to elect to receive upon exercise either Series D-7 Preferred Stock or Future Round Stock, the adjustment under this clause (b) shall apply solely to the class and series of Stock that has been so combined, reclassified, exchanged or subdivided and shall not impair Holder’s right to elect to exercise the purchase rights for any other class or series of Stock. The provisions of this Section 6(b) shall similarly apply to any successive combination, reclassification, exchange, subdivision or other change.

(c) Subdivisions and Combinations. In the event that the outstanding shares of Series D-7 Preferred Stock or Future Round Stock, as the case may be, are subdivided (by stock split, by payment of a stock distribution or otherwise) into a greater number of shares of Stock, the number of shares of Stock issuable upon exercise of the rights under this Warrant immediately prior to such subdivision shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such subdivision, be proportionately increased, and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased, and in the event that the outstanding Series D-7 Preferred Stock or Future Round Stock, as the case may be, are combined (by reclassification or otherwise) into a lesser number of shares of such securities, the number of shares of Stock issuable upon exercise of the rights under this Warrant immediately prior to such combination shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such combination, be proportionately decreased, and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately increased.

(d) Adjustments for Diluting Issuances and Charter Amendments. Without duplication of any adjustment otherwise provided for in this Section 6, the number of shares of Common Stock or other securities issuable upon conversion of the Stock shall be subject to the anti-dilution adjustment and protective

- 8 -


provisions in accordance with the Charter. To the extent permitted under applicable law, the Stock and the Underlying Securities shall not be subject to any “pay-to-play” provisions required under the Charter or otherwise, in order to achieve the benefits of this Section 6(d). The anti-dilution rights set forth in the Charter shall not be restated, amended or modified in any manner which affects Holder’s rights adversely and differently than all other holders of Stock without Holder’s consent. The Company shall provide Holder with any restatement, amendment or modification to the Charter promptly after the same has been made.

(e) Notice of Adjustments. If: (i) the Company shall declare any dividend or distribution upon its stock, whether in stock, cash, property or other securities; (ii) there shall be any Merger Event; (iii) there shall be an IPO; or (iv) there shall be any voluntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company; then, in connection with each such event, the Company shall send to Holder: (A) at least twenty (20) days’ prior written notice of the date on which the books of the Company shall close or a record shall be taken for such event described in (i), (ii) or (iv), above (specifying the date on which holders of the Company’s securities shall be entitled thereto or for determining rights to vote in respect of such event or for exchanging shares of stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such event); and (B) in the case of an IPO, the Company shall give Holder at least thirty (30) days’ written notice prior to the effective date thereof. Any such notice shall state the event giving rise to the adjustment, including adjustment of the Exercise Price as adjusted and the number of securities or other property purchasable upon the exercise of the rights under this Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation of each. The Company shall, upon the written request of Holder, furnish or cause to be furnished to Holder a certificate setting forth (x) such adjustments, (y) the Exercise Price at the time in effect, and (z) the number of securities and the amount, if any, of other property that at the time would be received upon exercise of this Warrant.

(f) Dividends/Distributions. If the Company at any time while this Warrant is outstanding and unexpired shall:

(i) pay a dividend with respect to the Stock payable in Stock, then the Exercise Price shall be adjusted, from and after the date of determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, to that price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such date of determination by a fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Stock outstanding immediately prior to such dividend or distribution and (B) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Stock outstanding immediately after such dividend or distribution; or

(ii) make any other dividend or distribution with respect to Underlying Securities, except any dividend covered by Section 6(f)(i), then, in each such case, provision shall be made by the Company such that the Holder shall receive upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant a proportionate share of any such dividend or distribution as though it were the holder of the Underlying Securities as of the record date fixed for the determination of the stockholders of the Company entitled to receive such dividend or distribution. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6(f)(ii) includes without limitation any subscription right in, or entitlement to receive, any securities that are afforded to Company stockholders in connection with any spin-off or similar transaction whereby Company stockholders receive a dividend or distribution in connection with the Transfer of a line of business, a Subsidiary (direct or indirect) or any other asset(s).

(g) IPO. If the Company shall effect an IPO, which results in the conversion of the Stock into Common Stock (or any other class or series of shares) pursuant to the provisions of the Charter in effect immediately prior to or upon such offering, then, effective upon such offering, this Warrant shall change from the right to purchase Stock to the right to purchase Common Stock (or such other class or series of shares, if applicable), and Holder shall thereupon have the right to purchase, at a total price equal to that payable upon

the exercise of this Warrant in full, the number of Common Stock (or such other class or series of shares, if applicable) which would have been receivable by Holder upon the exercise of this Warrant for Stock immediately prior to such conversion of such Stock into Common Stock (or such other class or series of shares, if applicable), and in such event appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interest of Holder to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, the provisions for the adjustment of the Exercise Price and of the number of shares of Stock purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant and the provisions relating to the net issue election) shall thereafter be applicable to Common Stock (or such other class or series of shares, if applicable) deliverable upon the exercise hereof.

(h) Notice of Certain Events. If the Company proposes at any time (i) to declare any dividend or distribution upon any class or series of its securities, whether in cash, property or other securities and whether or not a regular cash distribution; (ii) to offer for subscription pro rata to holders of its securities any additional securities; (iii) to effect any reclassification or recapitalization of its securities; or (iv) to complete a Merger Event or to liquidate, dissolve or wind up, then, in connection with each such event, the Company shall give Holder at least twenty (20) calendar days prior notice of the date when the same will take place (and specifying the expected date on which holders of securities will be entitled to exchange their securities for securities or other property deliverable upon the occurrence of such event).

(i) Information Rights; Confidentiality. For as long as Holder holds this Warrant or the Stock issuable upon exercise hereof (including any Underlying Securities), the Company shall deliver Holder the Company’s unaudited quarterly financial statements and a current capitalization table within forty-five (45) calendar days of the end of each quarter or sooner if available, and its unaudited annual financial statements within one-hundred and eighty (180) days of the end of each fiscal year or sooner if available, and Holder shall be permitted, periodically, to ask questions of management concerning such financial statements; provided, in each case, that such Holder shall be subject to the same confidentiality obligations set forth in Section 12.11 of the Loan Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no separate obligation hereunder to deliver to Holder any information the substantial equivalent of which shall have been provided to Holder pursuant to the Loan Agreement or, after an IPO, available through timely made publicly available filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

7. Expiration of the Warrant.

(a) Term. Subject to Section 7(b), this Warrant shall no longer be exercisable upon the earlier of (i) as of 5:00 p.m., Pacific time, on July 30, 2031, or (ii) the date that is twelve (12) months following the closing of the IPO.

(b) Early Termination. This Warrant shall no longer be exercisable upon the consummation of a Qualified Merger that results in a payment on account of the Underlying Securities in cash or Marketable Securities (or a combination of cash and Marketable Securities) to Holder in an amount not less than a per share price of at least two times (2x) the Stated Value of the Underlying Securities (the “Target Amount”), provided, however, that, if such payment would be less than the Target Amount, the Company may make up the difference with an additional cash payment (the “True Up Payment”), with all such payments to be made upon the consummation of the Qualified Merger. Upon consummation of the Qualified Merger this Warrant shall be deemed to be automatically exercised in accordance with the Net Issuance provisions of Section 2(b) above and Section 8 below if not otherwise exercised prior to the consummation of the Qualified Merger, whereupon Holder shall participate in the Qualified Merger as a holder of Stock (or other securities issuable upon exercise of this Agreement) on the same terms as the other holders of the same class of securities of the Company; provided that Holder shall also receive the True Up Payment if needed for the payments at the consummation of the Qualified Merger to total the Target Amount. Not less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the consummation of the Qualified Merger, Company shall provide Holder detailed information regarding the consideration to be received by holders of Stock in connection with the Qualified Merger.

8. Automatic Cashless Exercise upon Expiration. In the event that, upon the expiration of this Warrant, the fair market value of one share of Stock (or other security issuable upon the exercise hereof) as determined in accordance with Section 2(b) above is greater than the Exercise Price in effect on such date, then this Warrant shall automatically be deemed on and as of such date to be exercised pursuant to Section 2(b) above as to all shares of Stock (or such other securities) for which it shall not previously have been exercised at the Exercise Price for the most recently issued class or series of Stock, and the Company shall, within a reasonable time, but in no event greater than three (3) Business Days, deliver to Holder a certificate representing the shares of Stock (or such other securities) issued upon such exercise.

9. Rights as a Stockholder. In lieu of receiving the adjustment with regard to any particular dividend or distribution as provided in Section 6(f)(ii), Holder may by written election to the Company elect to receive any such dividend and/or distribution prior to exercising this Warrant and becoming a stockholder. Within two (2) Business Days after the Company’s receipt of such written election, the Company shall deliver to Holder such dividend and/or distribution as if Holder were a stockholder for the maximum number of shares of Stock into which this Warrant is then exercisable, whereupon Holder shall no longer be entitled to receive the adjustment provided in Section 6(f)(ii) for such dividend or distribution. Except as provided in this Warrant, until Holder exercises its right to purchase Stock as provided herein, Holder shall not have any rights as a stockholder of the Company, including the right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting.

10. Representations and Warranties of the Company. Company represents, warrants and covenants to the Company as follows:

(a) Capitalization; Issuance. The capitalization table attached hereto as Exhibit B correctly sets forth, as of the Date of Issuance, the authorized, issued and outstanding capital of the Company and all options, profits interests and warrants to acquire any Equity Interests of the Company. All issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock of the Company have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable, and were issued in full compliance with all federal and state securities laws.

(b) Reservation of Stock. The Series D-7 Preferred Stock issuable upon exercise of Holder’s rights hereunder has been or, in the case of Future Round Stock, will be duly and validly reserved and, when issued in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and will be free of any taxes, liens, charges or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever; provided, that the Stock issuable pursuant to this Warrant may be subject to restrictions on transfer under state and/or federal securities laws. The Company has made available to Holder true, correct and complete copies of its Charter and current bylaws.

(c) Consents and Approvals. No consent or approval of, giving of notice to, registration with, or taking of any other action in respect of any state, federal or other governmental authority or agency is required with respect to the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of its obligations under this Warrant, except for the filing of notices pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act and any filing required by applicable state securities law, which filings will be effective by the time required thereby.

(d) Due Authority. The execution and delivery by the Company of this Warrant and the performance of all obligations of the Company hereunder, including the issuance to Holder of the right to acquire the Underlying Securities into which it may be converted, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company. This Agreement: (i) does not violate the Charter or the Company’s current bylaws; (ii) does not contravene any law or governmental rule, regulation or order applicable to the Company; and (iii) does not and will not contravene any provision of, or constitute a default under, any indenture, mortgage, contract or other instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound. This Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms.

(e) Exempt Transaction. Subject to the accuracy of Holder’s representations in Section 11, the issuance of the Stock upon exercise of this Warrant, and the issuance of the Common Stock upon conversion of the Stock, will each constitute a transaction exempt from (i) the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act, in reliance upon Section 4(2) thereof, and (ii) the qualification requirements of the applicable state securities laws.

(f) Compliance with Rule 144. If Holder proposes to sell Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant, or the Common Stock into which it is convertible, in compliance with Rule 144 promulgated by the SEC, then, upon Holder’s written request to the Company, the Company shall furnish to Holder, within five (5) Business Days after receipt of such request, a written statement confirming or denying the Company’s compliance with the filing requirements of the SEC as set forth in such rule, as such rule may be amended from time to time.

(g) Registration Rights and Rights Agreement Amendments. The Company agrees that the shares of Common Stock issued and issuable upon conversion of the Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, and, at all times (if any) when the Stock shall be Common Stock, the Stock issued and issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, shall have the “Piggyback,” and S-3 registration rights pursuant to and as set forth in Sections 1.3 and 1.4 of the Rights Agreement on a pari passu basis with the stockholders of the Company who are parties thereto. The provisions set forth in the Rights Agreement in effect as of the Date of Issuance may not be amended, modified or waived without the prior written consent of Holder unless such amendment, modification or waiver affects the rights associated with the shares of Stock issued and issuable upon exercise hereof in the same manner as such amendment, modification, or waiver affects the rights associated with all outstanding shares of Stock whose holders are parties thereto.

11. Representations and Warranties of Holder. By acceptance of this Warrant, Holder represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

(a) No Registration. Holder understands that this Warrant and the Underlying Securities have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or qualified under applicable state securities laws by reason of the fact that the issuance of this Warrant is exempt from the registration and qualification provisions thereof, the availability of which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of Holder’s representations as expressed herein or otherwise made pursuant hereto.

(b) Investment Intent. Holder is acquiring this Warrant (and shall, if applicable, acquire the Underlying Securities) for investment for its own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof in violation of the Securities Act. Holder has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing this Warrant, or the Underlying Securities nor does it have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement for the same. Holder has not been formed for the specific purpose of acquiring this Warrant or the Underlying Securities.

(c) Investment Experience.

(d) Speculative Nature of Investment. Holder understands and acknowledges that its investment in the Company is highly speculative and involves substantial risks. Holder can bear the economic risk of its investment and is able, without impairing its financial condition, to hold this Warrant and its Underlying Securities an indefinite period of time and to suffer a complete loss of its investment.

(g) Restrictions on Resales. Holder acknowledges that this Warrant and the Underlying Securities must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. Holder is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, which permit resale of securities purchased in a private placement subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, which may include, among other things, the availability of certain current public information about the Company; the resale occurring not less than a specified period after a party has purchased and paid for the security to be sold; the number of securities being sold during any three-month period not exceeding specified limitations; the sale being effected through a “broker’s transaction,” a transaction directly with a “market maker” or a “riskless principal transaction” (as those terms are defined in the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder); and the filing of a Form 144 notice, if applicable.

(h) No Public Market. Holder understands and acknowledges that no public market now exists for any of the securities issued by the Company and that the Company has made no assurances that a public market will ever exist for the Company’s securities.

(i) Brokers and Finders. Holder has not engaged any brokers, finders or agents in connection with this Warrant, and the Company has not incurred nor will incur, directly or indirectly, as a result of any action taken by Holder, any liability for brokerage or finders’ fees or agents’ commissions or any similar charges in connection with this Warrant or the Underlying Securities.

(j) No Bad Actor Disqualification. Neither (i) Holder, (ii) any of its directors, executive officers, other officers that may serve as a director or officer of any company in which it invests, general partners or managing members, nor (iii) any beneficial owner of any of the Company’s voting equity securities (in accordance with Rule 506(d) of the Securities Act) held by Holder is subject to any of the “bad actor” disqualifications described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i) through (viii) under the Securities Act.
