(a)            Holder acknowledges that the Underlying Shares are being offered and sold by the Company in accordance with an applicable exemption or exemptions from registration under the Securities Act and that the Underlying Shares will constitute “restricted securities” as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act. Neither the offer and sale of this Warrant nor the Underlying Shares have been registered under the Securities Act, or any state securities laws (“Blue Sky Laws”). This Warrant has been acquired for the Holder’s own account for investment purposes and not with a current view to distribution or resale and may not be sold or otherwise transferred (i) without an effective registration statement for such Warrant under the Securities Act and such applicable Blue Sky Laws, or (ii) unless Holder shall have delivered to the Company an opinion of counsel to the effect that the Warrant or such portion of the Warrant to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred under an exemption from such registration; provided, that, subject to applicable law, the foregoing conditions shall not apply to any transfer of this Warrant from Purchaser to any Affiliate, managed fund or account of Oaktree Capital Management, L.P.

 

(b)            The Company covenants and agrees that all Underlying Shares will, upon issuance and payment therefor, be legally and validly issued and outstanding, free from all taxes, liens, charges and preemptive or similar rights, if any, with respect thereto or to the issuance thereof.

Section 7. Anti-Dilution Adjustments.

 

(a)            Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company shall at any time prior to the expiration of this Warrant (i) subdivide the Voting Common Stock (by stock split, recapitalization, or any other similar event) into a larger number of shares, (ii) combine the Voting Common Stock (by stock split or reverse stock split, recapitalization, combination of shares, or any other similar event) or (iii) issue by reclassification of shares of Voting Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company (with the exception of any reclassification that constitutes a Fundamental Change, as hereinafter defined), then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be adjusted by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the effective date of the subdivision, combination or re-classification by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Voting Common Stock outstanding immediately before such event and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Voting Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted such that the Aggregate Exercise Price shall remain unchanged. Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Underlying Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or to 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.

 

(b)            Subsequent Equity Sales. If the Company, while this Warrant is outstanding, shall sell, enter into an agreement to sell, or grant any option to purchase, or sell or grant any right to reprice, or otherwise dispose of or issue any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, at an effective price per share less than the Exercise Price then in effect (such lower price, the “Base Share Price” and such issuance collectively, a “Dilutive Issuance”) (it being understood and agreed that if the holder of the Voting Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents so issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase price adjustments, reset provisions, floating conversion, exercise or exchange prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options or rights per share which are issued in connection with such issuance, be entitled to receive shares of Voting Common Stock at an effective price per share that is less than the Exercise Price, such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Exercise Price on such date of the first Dilutive Issuance at such effective price), then simultaneously with the consummation of such Dilutive Issuance, the Exercise Price shall be reduced and only reduced to equal the Base Share Price. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustments shall be made, paid or issued under this Section 7(b) in respect of an Exempt Issuance or Permitted Transaction. “Exempt Issuance” means the issuance of (x) shares of Voting Common Stock or options to employees, officers, directors or consultants of the Company pursuant to any stock or option plan duly adopted for such purpose, by a majority of the non-employee members of the Board of Directors or a majority of the members of a committee of non-employee directors established for such purpose for services rendered to the Company or (y) securities upon the exercise or exchange of or conversion of Warrants of this series and/or other securities exercisable or exchangeable for or convertible into shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on the date of this Warrant, provided that such securities described in sections (x) and (y) above have not been amended since the date of this Warrant to increase the number of such securities or to decrease the exercise price, exchange price or conversion price of such securities or to extend the term of such securities. The Company shall notify the Holder, in writing, no later than the Trading Day following the issuance or deemed issuance of any shares of Voting Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents subject to this Section 7(b), indicating therein the applicable issuance price, or applicable reset price, exchange price, conversion price and other pricing terms (such notice, the “Dilutive Issuance Notice”). For purposes of clarification, whether or not the Company provides a Dilutive Issuance Notice pursuant to this Section 7(b), upon the occurrence of any Dilutive Issuance, the Holder is entitled to receive a number of Underlying Shares based upon the Exercise Price as adjusted in accordance with this Section 7(b) regardless of whether the Holder accurately refers to the adjusted Exercise Price in the Notice of Exercise.

(c)            During such time as this Warrant is outstanding, if the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to all (or substantially all) of holders of shares of Voting Common Stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after the issuance of this Warrant, then, in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of shares of Voting Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Maximum Percentage) immediately before the date as of which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Voting Common Stock are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution (provided, however, that, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder exceeding the Maximum Percentage, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (or in the beneficial ownership of any shares of Voting Common Stock as a result of such Distribution to such extent) and the portion of such Distribution shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Maximum Percentage).

 

(d)            If the Company shall at any time prior to the expiration of this Warrant (in each case, occurring after the date hereof) be a party to any merger, consolidation, exchange of shares of Voting Common Stock, sale of a majority of the Voting Common Stock, sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, separation, reorganization, recapitalization, winding up or liquidation of the Company, or other similar event or transaction (each, a “Fundamental Change”), as a result of which shares of Voting Common Stock shall be changed into the same or a different number or class or classes of securities of the Company or another entity, or the holders of shares of Voting Common Stock are entitled to receive cash or other property, then, upon the Exercise of this Warrant by the Holder, such Holder shall receive, for the Aggregate Exercise Price as in effect immediately prior to such Fundamental Change (subject to all other adjustments under this Warrant), the aggregate number of shares or such other securities, cash or other property which such Holder would have received if this Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to such Fundamental Change (collectively, the “Fundamental Change Receivable”), which, upon the Holder’s election, may be received net of the Aggregate Exercise Price (for the avoidance of doubt, without payment by the Holder of any cash in an amount equal to the then Exercise Price). In the case of any Fundamental Change, the successor or purchasing party of such merger, consolidation, exchange of shares of Voting Common Stock, sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or reorganization (if other than the Company) shall duly execute and deliver to the Holder a supplement to this Warrant acknowledging the Company and such party’s obligations under this Section 7(d). The terms of this Warrant shall be applicable to the Fundamental Change Receivable due to the Holder upon the consummation of any such Fundamental Change.

(e)            If any event of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section 7 but not expressly provided for by such provisions occurs, then the Board of Directors of the Company shall make an appropriate adjustment to the Exercise Price and the number of Underlying Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant so as to protect the rights of the Holder in a manner consistent with the provisions of this Section 7; provided that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 7(e) shall increase the Exercise Price or decrease the number of Underlying Shares issuable as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 7.

 

(f)            Not less than five (5) days prior to the record date or effective date, as the case may be, of any event which requires or might require an adjustment or readjustment pursuant to Section 7(a), Section 7(b) or Section 7(e) (each, an “Adjustment Event”), and not less than twenty (20) days prior to the record date or effective date, as the case may be, of any Fundamental Change, the Company shall give written notice of such Adjustment Event or Fundamental Change (as applicable) to the Holder or Holders, describing such Adjustment Event or Fundamental Change in reasonable detail and specifying the record date or effective date, as the case may be. Such notice shall additionally include the Company’s certification of the following computations, as applicable, each of which shall have been made by the Company in good faith: (i) in the case of an Adjustment Event, if determinable, the required adjustment and the computation thereof or, if the required adjustment is not determinable at the time of such notice, the Company shall give notice to the Holder or Holders of such adjustment and computation promptly after such adjustment becomes determinable, and (ii) in the case of a Fundamental Change, the number of shares or such other securities, cash or other property which is payable to the Holder or Holders upon exercise of this Warrant following the Fundamental Change, the computation thereof, and the computation of the then applicable Exercise Price. Except as otherwise prohibited by applicable laws, to the extent that any notice provided pursuant to this Section 7(f) contains material, non-public information regarding the Company, the Company shall disclose such information regarding the Company in a Current Report on Form 8-K and file such Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC no later than the second Trading Day following the date such notice is delivered to the Holder.

 

(g)            Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if an exercise of all or any portion of this Warrant is to be made in connection with a Fundamental Change or a public offering, such exercise may, at the election of the Holder, be conditioned upon the consummation of such transaction, in which case such exercise shall not be deemed to be effective until immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction.

(h)            At all times on and prior to the Expiration Date, the Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued Voting Common Stock (or other equity interests then constituting Underlying Shares), solely for the purpose of issuance upon the exercise of this Warrant, the maximum number of Underlying Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates or effectuating the book entry of uncertificated shares to execute and issue, or enter, the necessary certificates or book entries (as applicable) for the Underlying Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company shall not increase the par value of any Underlying Shares receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, and shall take all such actions within its power as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable Underlying Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant.

 

Section 8. Transfer of Warrant. Subject to compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws, the Holder may, from time to time, transfer this Warrant or the Underlying Shares, in each case, in whole or in part, by giving the Company a written notice of the portion of the Warrant or the shares of the Underlying Shares being transferred, such notice to set forth the name, address and taxpayer identification number of the transferee, the anticipated date of such transfer, and surrendering this Warrant or the certificates or book-entry records representing shares of the Underlying Shares, as applicable, to the Company for reissuance to the transferee(s). Upon surrender of this Warrant by a Holder to the Company for transfer, in whole or in part, the Company shall issue a new warrant to such Holder in such denomination as shall be requested by such Holder covering the number of Underlying Shares, if any, in respect of which this Warrant shall not have been transferred. Such new warrant shall be identical in all other respects to this Warrant. This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the office of the Company, together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with this Section 8 as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance with such notice. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated as of the Initial Issuance Date and shall be identical to this Warrant except as to the number of Underlying Shares issuable pursuant thereto. Any transferee or subsequent Holder will provide the Company with a duly executed and completed IRS Form W-9 or applicable IRS Form W-8, and any other form or certification reasonably requested by the Company in order for the Company to comply with its obligations under applicable tax law. Any and all documentary, stamp and similar issue or transfer taxes due on any transfer pursuant to this Section 8, or on the issuance of Underlying Shares to any transferee, shall be borne by the transferor, and no such transfer or issue shall be made unless and until the Person requesting such transfer or issue has paid to the Company the amount of any such tax or has established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid or is not payable.

Section 9. No Impairment. The Company may not, including, without limitation, by amendment of its certificate of incorporation or bylaws, or through a Fundamental Change or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, and the Company shall at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder or Holders against impairment.

No provision of this Warrant, in the absence of affirmative action by the Holder or Holders to purchase the Underlying Shares, and no mere enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder or Holders, shall give rise to any liability of such Holder or Holders for the Exercise Price or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.
