New Senior Secured Credit Agreement
On June 6, 2025, the Company entered into a senior secured credit agreement (the “Financing Agreement”) by and among the Company, as borrower (the “Borrower”), TCW Asset Management Company LLC, a leading global asset manager (“TCW”), as collateral agent for the lenders (in such capacity, together with its successors and assigns in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”) and as administrative agent for the lenders (in such capacity, together with its successors and assigns in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”, and together with the Collateral Agent, each an “Agent” and collectively, the “Agents”), and certain other parties signatory thereto. The Financing Agreement provides for (a) $150 million of new five-year term loan facilities (the “Term Loan Facilities”), (b) a new $20 million delayed draw term loan facility (the “Delayed Draw Facility”) and (c) a new $20 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility” and, together with the Term Loan Facilities and Delayed Draw Facility, the “Facilities”).
The proceeds of the Term Loan Facilities will be used to fully refinance the Company’s existing senior secured indebtedness and to consummate the Exchange. It is intended that the proceeds of the Delayed Draw Facility may be used to fund any future repurchases of outstanding 2026 Notes. The proceeds of loans drawn under the Revolving Credit Facility will be used to fund the general working capital needs and general corporate purposes of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Facilities’ stated maturity date is June 6, 2030.
The Borrower’s obligations under the Financing Agreement are secured by first-priority liens on substantially all assets of the Borrower, subject to certain exceptions. The Financing Agreement requires the Borrower to cause certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries to, within 90 days of the closing date of the Financing Agreement, grant first-priority liens on substantially all of their assets, in each case, subject to certain exceptions.
Interest on the borrowings under the Facilities is payable in arrears on the applicable interest payment date at an interest rate equal to, at the Company’s option, either: (i) a term SOFR-based rate (subject to a 2.00% per annum floor), plus an applicable margin of 8.50%, per annum or (ii) a base rate (subject to a 3.00% per annum floor), plus an applicable margin of 7.50% per annum, up to 6.00% per annum of which may be paid in kind by capitalizing such interest and adding it to the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan Facility or Delayed Draw Facility, as applicable (subject to an increase in applicable margin of ^1^/3 of 1.00% per annum for each 1.00% per annum of interest elected to be paid in kind). The Financing Agreement requires the Borrower to pay the lenders with commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility an unused commitment fee equal to 0.50% per annum of the average unused portion of the Revolving Credit Facility.
The Financing Agreement contains restrictions and covenants applicable to the Company and its subsidiaries. Among other requirements, the Company may not permit (i) the Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Financing Agreement) to be greater than a certain specified ratio for each fiscal quarter during the term of the Financing Agreement, (ii) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Financing Agreement) to be less than a certain specified ratio for each fiscal quarter during the term of the Financing Agreement or (iii) Liquidity (as defined in the Financing Agreement) to be less than a certain specified threshold for each month during the term of the Financing Agreement.
The Financing Agreement also contains customary covenants that limit, among other things, the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to (i) incur indebtedness, (ii) incur liens on their property, (iii) pay dividends or make other distributions, (iv) sell their assets, (v) make certain loans or investments, (vi) merge or consolidate, (vii) voluntarily repay or prepay certain indebtedness and (viii) enter into transactions with affiliates, in each case subject to certain exceptions. The Financing Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and events of default.
The foregoing summary of the terms of the Financing Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Financing Agreement, a copy of which will be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending June 30, 2025.

The foregoing summary of the terms of the Governance Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Governance Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

1. Exercise of Warrants.
1.1 General Exercise. Subject to Section 1.6, this Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part by the Holder at any time and from time to time on and after the Eligible Exercise Date and on or prior to the close of business on the Expiration Date; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the Eligible Exercise Date, this Warrant shall entitle the Holder to the rights set forth in Section 7 in the event of a Change of Control that occurs before or after the Eligible Exercise Date. Any exercise of this Warrant may be conditioned upon the occurrence of (a) a Public Sale of the Warrant Shares or (b) any event described in Section 8.3(iii). Such conditional exercise shall be deemed revoked if such event or transaction does not occur on the date, or within
6
the dates, specified in the applicable notice provided by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to Section 8 (if such a notice was provided).
1.2 Exercise for Cash. This Warrant may be exercised (a “Cash Exercise”) by delivering this Warrant to the Company at its principal executive office, or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, accompanied by (i) the “Purchase Form” attached as Exhibit A hereto duly completed and executed on behalf of the Holder and (ii) a payment to the Company in the amount equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of whole Warrant Shares in respect of which this Warrant is then exercised, plus all taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 2. This Warrant may not be exercised for a fraction of a Warrant Share.
1.3 Exercise by Net Share Settlement. This Warrant may be exercised, in whole or in part (an “Exerciseby Net Share Settlement”), into the number of Warrant Shares determined in accordance with this Section 1.3 by delivering this Warrant to the Company at its principal executive office, or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, accompanied by (i) the “Notice of Exercise by Net Share Settlement” attached hereto as Exhibit B duly completed and executed on behalf of the Holder and (ii) a payment to the Company for any taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 2. In the event of an Exercise by Net Share Settlement, the Company shall issue to the Holder a number of Warrant Shares (subject to Section 5) computed using the following formula:
| X = Y (A - B) |
|---|
| A |
where:
X = the net number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder pursuant to the Exercise by Net Share Settlement;
Y = the gross number of Warrant Shares in respect of which the Exercise by Net Share Settlement is made;
A = the Market Price as of the Exercise Date; and
B = the Exercise Price.
1.4 Issuance of Certificate(s); Authorization. Upon surrender of this Warrant and full compliance with each of the other requirements in Section 1.2, in the case of a Cash Exercise, and Section 1.3, in the case of an Exercise by Net Share Settlement, the Company shall, promptly, and in any event, within two (2) Trading Days, either (i) issue and cause to be delivered a certificate or certificates to the Holder, or upon the written request of the Holder, in and to such name or names as the Holder may designate, a certificate or certificates for the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the Cash Exercise or the Exercise by Net Share Settlement, as the case may be, or (ii) instruct its transfer agent to register in book entry form and, if such transfer agent is participating in The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, credit such aggregate number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the Cash Exercise or the Exercise by Net Share Settlement, as the case may be, to the Holder’s (or, upon the written request of the Holder, to its designee’s or designees’) balance account(s) with DTC through its Deposit /
7
Withdrawal At Custodian System. Such certificate or certificates (or book entry shares) shall not be deemed to have been issued, and any Person so designated to be named therein shall not be deemed to have become or have any rights of a holder of record of such Warrant Shares, until all requirements set forth in Section 1.2, in the case of a Cash Exercise, and Section 1.3, in the case of an Exercise by Net Share Settlement, have been fully met by the Holder. The certificate(s) (or book entry shares) representing the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant shall bear the restrictive legend substantially in the form set forth on Exhibit C hereto; provided that, upon the reasonable request of the Holder, at any time, and from time to time, when such legend is no longer required under the Securities Act or applicable state laws, the Company shall promptly remove such legend from any certificate representing the Warrant Shares (or issue one or more new certificates representing such Warrant Shares, which certificate(s) shall not contain a legend). The Company hereby represents and warrants that any shares of Common Stock issued upon the exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the provisions of Sections 1.2 and/or 1.3 will be duly and validly authorized and issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges (other than taxes, liens or charges created by the Holder or taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously therewith). The Company agrees that the Warrant Shares so issued will be deemed to have been issued to the Holder (and the Holder shall be the beneficial owner thereof) as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant and payment of the Exercise Price are delivered to the Company in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, notwithstanding that the stock transfer books of the Company may then be closed or certificates representing such Warrant Shares may not be actually delivered on such date.
1.5 Full or Partial Exercise. This Warrant shall be exercisable, at the election of the Holder, either in full or in part and, in the event that this Warrant is exercised in respect of fewer than all of the Warrant Shares issuable on such exercise at any time prior to the Expiration Date, the Company shall promptly issue a new certificate evidencing the remaining Warrant or Warrants, in a form substantially identical hereto, in the name of the Holder, and delivered to the Holder or to another Person that the Holder has designated for delivery as soon as practicable, and in any event not exceeding three (3) Business Days from such exercise.
1.6 Restrictions on Exercise. The Holder will not be permitted to exercise the right to purchase Warrant Shares if and to the extent, as a result of such exercise, either (i) such Holder’s, together with such Holder’s Affiliates’, aggregate voting power on any matter that could be voted on by holders of the Common Stock would exceed 19.9% of the Maximum Voting Power or (ii) such Holder, together with such Holder’s Affiliates, would beneficially own more than 19.9% of the then outstanding Common Stock; provided, however, that such exercise restriction shall not apply in connection with and subject to completion of (A) a Public Sale of the Warrant Shares to be issued upon such exercise, (B) a bona fide third party tender offer for the Common Stock issuable thereupon, or (C) a Change of Control if, in the case of each of clauses (A), (B) and (C), such Holder and its Affiliates will not beneficially own in excess of 19.9% of the then outstanding Common Stock following the consummation of such event. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates shall include the number of Warrant Shares to be issued with respect to which a Notice of Exercise by Net Share Settlement or Purchase Form has been given and the shares of Common Stock to be issued in connection with the exercise of any other outstanding warrants beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its Affiliates. Upon the written request of the Holder, the Company shall within two (2) Trading Days confirm in writing to the Holder the number of
8
shares of Common Stock then outstanding. The restrictions contained in this paragraph shall automatically terminate upon the consummation of a Change of Control with respect to the surviving Person (if other than the Company).
In no event shall this Warrant be exercised for a number of Warrant Shares that would require shareholder approval pursuant to Nasdaq Rule 5635 (or successor rule) unless such shareholder approval is obtained. The Company covenants that it will not take any action that would result in an adjustment to the Exercise Price or number of Warrant Shares that would require such shareholder approval without first obtaining shareholder approval.
1.7 Automatic Cashless Exercise upon Expiration. In the event that, upon the Expiration Date, the Market Price is greater than the Exercise Price in effect on such date, then this Warrant shall automatically be deemed on and as of the Expiration Date to be exercised pursuant to Section 1.3 above as to all Warrant Shares for which it shall not previously have been exercised (the “Automatic Exercise”), and the Company shall take such other actions as required pursuant to Section 1.4 in connection with such Automatic Exercise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Automatic Exercise shall be subject to the provisions and limitations set forth in Section 1.6.
2. Payment of Taxes. Issuance of certificates for 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 certificate, all of which taxes (other than any such taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously therewith) and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates 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 certificates for Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by a properly executed assignment form in the form attached as Exhibit D hereto, and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.
3. Mutilated, Missing or Lost Warrant. In the event that this Warrant shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue and countersign, in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of the mutilated Warrant, or in lieu of and substitution for its loss, theft or destruction, a new Warrant with identical terms, representing an equivalent number of Warrant Shares and dated the same date as this Warrant that was mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, but only upon receipt of evidence and indemnity or other security reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft or destruction of this Warrant; provided, however, that in the event a new Warrant is issued pursuant to this Section 3 in a name other than the name of the Holder on the date the Warrant was mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Holder shall present to the Company, in addition to the requirements of this Section 3, a properly executed assignment form in the form attached as Exhibit D hereto, and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.
4. Reservation of Warrant Shares.
4.1 At all times prior to the Expiration Date, the Company shall at all times
9
reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon the exercise of this Warrant, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the aggregate Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary to assure that all such shares of Common Stock may be so issued without violating the Company’s governing documents, any agreements to which the Company is a party on the date hereof, any requirements of any national securities exchange upon which shares of Common Stock may be listed or any applicable laws. The Company shall not take any action which would cause the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to be less than the number of such shares required to be reserved hereunder for issuance upon exercise of the Warrants.
4.2 The Company covenants that it will take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that all Warrant Shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant will, upon issuance in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, be fully paid and non-assessable, and free from any and all (i) security interests created by or imposed upon the Company and (ii) taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof. If at any time prior to the Expiration Date the number and kind of authorized but unissued shares of the Company’s Common Stock shall not be sufficient to permit exercise in full of this Warrant, the Company will as promptly as reasonably practicable take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be reasonably necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will not increase the stated or par value per share, if any, of the Common Stock above the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such increase in stated or par value.
4.3 The Company represents and warrants to the Holders that the issuance of this Warrant and the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise thereof in accordance with the terms hereof will not constitute a breach of, or a default under, any other material agreements to which the Company is a party on the date hereof and that this Warrant constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company.
5. Fractional Shares. No fractional Warrant Shares, or scrip for any such fractional Warrant Shares, shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. If any fraction of a share of Common Stock would, except for the provisions of this Section 5, be issuable on the exercise of any Warrant, the Holder shall be entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the Market Price of the Common Stock less the Exercise Price for such fractional Warrant Share.
6. Anti-dilution Adjustments and Other Rights. The Exercise Price and number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:
6.1 Adjustment to Exercise Price. Upon any adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable pursuant to Sections 6.2, 6.3, 6.4 and 6.5, the Exercise Price shall immediately be adjusted to equal the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the aggregate Exercise Price of the maximum number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant was exercisable immediately prior to such adjustment by (ii) the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after such adjustment (without giving effect to the limitations in Section 1.6); provided, however, that the Exercise Price with respect to the new
10
number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable resulting from any such adjustment shall not be less than the par value per share of Common Stock at such time (which, for the avoidance of doubt, is $0.001 as of the Issue Date).
6.2 Changes to Common Stock. If the Company (i) declares, orders, pays or makes a dividend or a distribution on its Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of the Warrants), (ii) splits, subdivides or reclassifies its outstanding Common Stock into a larger number of shares of Common Stock, (iii) combines or reclassifies its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock or (iv) increases or decreases the number of Common Stock outstanding by reclassification of its shares of Common Stock, then in each case, the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable will be adjusted based on the following formula:
| NS’ = NS0 x OS’ |
|---|
| OS0 |
where:
| NS’ | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable in effect immediately after such<br>event; |
|---|---|---|
| NS0 | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is<br>exercisable in effect immediately prior to such event; |
| --- | --- | --- |
| OS’ | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event; and |
| --- | --- | --- |
| OS0 | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately<br>prior to such event. |
| --- | --- | --- |
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day following the date fixed for such determination. The Company will not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in treasury by the Company. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this Section 6.2 is declared but not so paid or made, the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall again be adjusted to be the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant would be exercisable if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.
6.3 Options. If the Company issues to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock any Options entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock, subject to the last paragraph of this Section 6.3, at a price per share of Common Stock less than the Market Price per share of Common Stock on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance, the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable will be adjusted based on the following formula:
| NS’ = NS0 x OS0+X |
|---|
| OS0+Y |
11
where:
| NS’ | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant<br>is exercisable in effect immediately after such event; |
|---|---|---|
| NS0 | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is<br>exercisable in effect immediately prior to such event; |
| --- | --- | --- |
| OS0 | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately<br>prior to such event; |
| --- | --- | --- |
| X | = | the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant<br>to such Options; and |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Y | = | the number of shares of Common Stock equal to (i)(A) the<br>total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such Options multiplied by (B) the price per share of Common Stock<br>payable to exercise such Options, divided by (ii) the Market Price per share of Common Stock as of the record date. |
| --- | --- | --- |
Such adjustment shall be successively made whenever any such Options are issued and shall become effective immediately after 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day following the date fixed for such determination. The Company shall not issue any such Options in respect of shares of Common Stock held in treasury by the Company. To the extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such Options, the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be readjusted to be the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant would be exercisable had the adjustments made upon the issuance of such Options been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered. If such Options are not so issued, the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall again be adjusted to be the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant would be exercisable if such date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such Options had not been fixed. No adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section 6.3 which shall have the effect of decreasing the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.
In determining whether any Options entitle the Holder to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at less than such Market Price, and in determining the aggregate price payable to exercise such Options, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such Options and any amount payable on exercise thereof, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.
In the event the Company adopts or implements a shareholder rights agreement (a “Shareholder Rights Plan”) pursuant to which rights (“Rights”) are distributed to the holders of Common Stock of the Company and such Shareholder Rights Plan provides that each Warrant Share issued upon exercise of this Warrant at any time prior to the distribution of separate certificates representing such Rights will be entitled to receive such Rights, then there shall not be any adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant or Exercise Price at any time prior to the distribution of separate certificates representing such Rights. If, however, prior to any exercise, the Rights have separated from the Common Stock, the number of Warrant Shares for
12
which this Warrant is exercisable shall be adjusted at the time of separation as described in this Section 6.3.
6.4 Other Distributions. If the Company fixes a record date for the making of any distribution of shares of its Common Stock, other securities, evidences of indebtedness or other assets or property of the Company to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, excluding:
| (i) | dividends or distributions and Options referred to in Sections 6.2 or 6.3; and |
|---|---|
| (ii) | dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash referred to in Section 6.5; |
| --- | --- |
then the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable will be adjusted based on the following formula:
| NS’ = NS0 x SP0 |
|---|
| SP0 - FMV |
where:
| NS’ | = the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable in effect immediately after such<br>distribution; |
|---|
NS0 = the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable in effect immediately prior to such distribution;
SP0 = the Market Price per share of Common Stock on the last Trading Day immediately preceding the first date on which the Common Stock trades regular way without the right to receive such distribution; and
| FMV | = a number equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the aggregate fair market value (as determined<br>in good faith by the Board) of all the distributed shares of capital stock, other securities, evidences of indebtedness, assets or property<br>by (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the record date for such distribution. |
|---|
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately prior to 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day following the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed with respect to a subsequent event.
With respect to an adjustment pursuant to this Section 6.4 where there has been a payment of a dividend or other distribution on the Common Stock of shares of capital stock of any class or series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to a subsidiary or other business unit (a “Spin-Off”), the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable in effect immediately before
13
5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive the distribution will be increased based on the following formula:
| NS’ = NS0 x FMV0+ MP0 |
|---|
| MP0 |
where:
| NS’ | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable in effect immediately after such<br>distribution; |
|---|---|---|
| NS0 | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is<br>exercisable in effect immediately prior to such distribution; |
| --- | --- | --- |
| FMV0 | = | the average Market Price per share of the capital stock<br>or similar equity interest distributed to holders of Common Stock over the first ten (10) consecutive Trading Days after the effective<br>date of the Spin-Off; and |
| --- | --- | --- |
| MP0 | = | the average Market Price per share of Common Stock over<br>the first ten (10) consecutive Trading Days after the effective date of the Spin-Off. |
| --- | --- | --- |
Such adjustment shall occur on the tenth consecutive Trading Day from, and including, the effective date of the Spin-Off. No adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section 6.4 which shall have the effect of decreasing the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.
6.5 Cash Dividend. If the Company makes any cash dividend or distribution (excluding any cash distributions in connection with the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up) during any quarterly fiscal period to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock, the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable will be adjusted based on the following formula:
| NS’ = NS0 x SP0 |
|---|
| SP0<br>- C |
where:
| NS’ | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable in effect immediately after the<br>record date for such distribution; |
|---|---|---|
| NS0 | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is<br>exercisable in effect immediately prior to the record date for such distribution; |
| --- | --- | --- |
| SP0 | = | the Market Price per share of the Common Stock on the last<br>Trading Day immediately preceding the first date on which the Common Stock trades regular way without the right to receive such distribution;<br>and |
| --- | --- | --- |
14
| C | = | the amount in cash per share of Common Stock the Company<br>distributes to holders of Common Stock. |
|---|
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date for such determination. No adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section 6.5 which shall have the effect of decreasing the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.
6.6 Adjustment Upon Issuance of Common Stock. Except in the case of (i) Common Stock issued by the Company in connection with any Excluded Securities and (ii) an event described in either Section 6.2 or Section 6.3, if the Company shall, at any time or from time to time after the Issue Date, issue or sell any shares of Common Stock or is deemed to have issued or sold any shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 6.6.3, in each case, without consideration or for consideration or having a combined purchase and conversion, exchange or exercise price of less than $1.25 per share of Common Stock (the “Minimum Price”), the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable will be adjusted based on the following formula:
| NS’ = NS0 x DOS’ |
|---|
| DOS0<br>+ Z |
where:
| NS’ | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant<br>is exercisable in effect immediately after such issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale); |
|---|---|---|
| NS0 | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is<br>exercisable in effect immediately prior to such issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale); |
| --- | --- | --- |
| DOS’ | = | the Common Stock Deemed Outstanding as of immediately<br>after such issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale); |
| --- | --- | --- |
| DOS0 | = | the Common Stock Deemed Outstanding as of immediately prior<br>to such issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale); and |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Z | = | the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock which the<br>aggregate amount of consideration, if any, received by the Company upon such issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale) would purchase<br>at the Minimum Price. |
| --- | --- | --- |
For the purposes of any adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a Warrant pursuant to this Section 6, the following provisions shall be applicable:
6.6.1 In the case of the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities for cash, the amount of the consideration received by the Company shall be deemed to be the amount of the gross cash proceeds received by the Company for such securities before deducting from such amount any discounts or commissions allowed, paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale of such Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities.
15
6.6.2 In the case of the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities (other than upon the conversion of stock or other securities of the Company) for consideration in whole or in part other than cash, including securities acquired in exchange for such shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities (other than securities by their terms so exchangeable), the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair market value thereof.
6.6.3 In the case of the issuance of Convertible Securities or Options (in each case, whether or not at the time so convertible, exchangeable or exercisable): (i) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion, exchange or exercise of such Convertible Securities or Options shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such Convertible Securities or Options are issued and for consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in this Section 6.6), if any, received by the Company upon the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities or Options plus the minimum purchase price provided in such Convertible Securities or Options for shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion, exchange or exercise by such Convertible Securities or Options; and (ii) if the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a Warrant shall have been adjusted upon the issuance or sale of any Convertible Securities or Options, no further adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a Warrant shall be made for the actual issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities or Options.
6.7 No Adjustment if Participating. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6, no adjustment shall be made thereunder, nor shall an adjustment be made to the ability of a Holder to exercise, for any distribution described therein if the Holder will otherwise participate in the distribution with respect to its Warrant Shares without exercise of this Warrant (without giving effect to any separate exercise of preemptive rights).
6.8 No Adjustment. No adjustment to the Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable need be made:
6.8.1 upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on securities of the Company and the investment of additional optional amounts in shares of Common Stock under any plan;
6.8.2 upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or Options to purchase shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future employee, director or consultant benefit plan or program of or assumed by the Company or any of its subsidiaries;
6.8.3 upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any Option, or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security not described in Section 6.3 and outstanding as of the Issue Date or issued in exchange for (or as a replacement of) any such security outstanding as of the Issue Date; or
6.8.4 for a change in the par value of the Common Stock.
16
6.9 Calculations. All adjustments made to the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 6 shall be calculated to the nearest one-ten thousandth of a cent ($0.000001), and all adjustments made to the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of each Warrant pursuant to this Section 6 shall be calculated to the nearest one-ten thousandth of a Warrant Share (0.0001). Except as described in this Section 6, the Company will not adjust the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable.
No adjustments of the Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant that would otherwise be required shall be made unless and until such adjustment either by itself or with other adjustments not previously made increases or decreases by at least 0.1% the Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to the making of such adjustment. Any adjustment representing a change of less than such minimum amount shall be carried forward and made as soon as such adjustment, together with other adjustments required by this Section 6 and not previously made, would result in such minimum adjustment.
6.10 Adjustment Event. In any case in which this Section 6 provides that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after (i) a record date or record date for an event, (ii) the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive a dividend or distribution pursuant to this Section 6 or (iii) a date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive Options pursuant to this Section 6 (each, a “Determination Date”), the Company may elect to defer until the occurrence of the applicable Adjustment Event (x) issuing to the Holder of any Warrant exercised after such Determination Date and before the occurrence of such Adjustment Event, the additional shares of Common Stock or other securities issuable upon such exercise by reason of the adjustment required by such Adjustment Event over and above the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion before giving effect to such adjustment and (y) paying to such Holder any amount in cash in lieu of any fraction pursuant to Section 5. For purposes of this Section 6, the term “Adjustment Event” shall mean:
| (A) | in any case referred to in clause (i) hereof, the occurrence of such event; |
|---|---|
| (B) | in any case referred to in clause (ii) hereof, the date any such dividend or distribution is paid<br>or made; and |
| --- | --- |
| (C) | in any case referred to in clause (iii) hereof, the earlier of the date of expiration or the date<br>of full exercise of such Options. |
| --- | --- |
6.11 Number of Shares Outstanding. For purposes of this Section 6, the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company will not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company.
6.12 Successive Adjustments. Successive adjustments in the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be made, without duplication, whenever any event specified in this Section 6 shall occur.

6.13 Adjustment for Unspecified Actions. If the Company takes any action affecting the Common Stock, other than any action described in this Section 6, which in the opinion of the Board would materially adversely affect the exercise rights of the Holder, then the Exercise Price for this Warrant and/or the number of Warrant Shares received upon exercise of this Warrant may be adjusted, to the extent permitted by law, in such manner, if any, and at such time as the Board may determine in good faith to be equitable in the circumstances; provided, however, that in no event shall any adjustment have the effect of increasing the Exercise Price or decreasing the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant may be exercised.
7. Treatment of Warrant Upon a Change of Control. In the event of a Change of Control, whether such Change of Control occurs before or after the Eligible Exercise Date, in which the consideration to be received by all of the Company’s stockholders consists solely of cash, solely of Marketable Securities or a combination of cash and Marketable Securities (a “Cash/PublicAcquisition”), which for the avoidance of doubt shall not include a Change of Control in which the consideration to be received by any of the Company’s stockholders consists of consideration other than cash or Marketable Securities, including an equity rollover, the Holder may elect, by giving notice to the Company within fifteen (15) calendar days prior to such Cash/Public Acquisition, to exchange this Warrant for the kind and amount of cash or Marketable Securities payable at the closing of such Cash/Public Acquisition (the “SaleConsideration”) which the Holder would have received with respect to the Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant if the Holder had exercised this Warrant on a cashless basis immediately prior to the occurrence of such Cash/Public Acquisition, and the Company had issued to such Holder a number of Warrant Shares computed using the following formula:
| X = Y (A - B) |
|---|
| A |
where:
X = the number of Warrant Shares deemed to have been issued to the Holder;
Y = the number of Warrant Shares purchasable under this Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised, the portion of the Warrant being cancelled;
A = the amount of Sale Consideration payable per share of Common Stock in the Change of Control, with (i) such amount expressed in U.S. dollars and, if applicable, rounded to the nearest whole cent, and (ii) any non-cash portion of such Sale Consideration valued at the value attributed thereto in the Change of Control; and
B = the lesser of (i) the Exercise Price and (ii) the Black Scholes Adjusted Exercise Price.
Upon the closing of any Change of Control or any other merger, business combination or consolidation involving the Company that does not amount to a Change of Control (in each case, other than a Cash/Public Acquisition), whether such transaction occurs before or after the Eligible Exercise Date, the acquiring, surviving or successor entity shall assume the obligations of this Warrant, and this Warrant shall thereafter be exercisable for the same securities and/or other property as would have been paid for the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the unexercised portion of this Warrant as if such Warrant Shares were outstanding on and as of the closing of such
18
Change of Control or such other transaction, subject to further adjustment from time to time in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant.
8. Notices.
8.1 Notices Generally. Except as otherwise expressly provided hereunder, all notices referred to herein shall be in writing and shall be delivered by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid, or by reputable overnight courier service, charges prepaid, and shall be deemed to have been given when so mailed or sent (i) to the Company, at its principal executive offices and (ii) to the Holder, at the Holder’s address as it appears in the stock records of the Company (unless otherwise indicated by the Holder in writing), and to such other Persons identified in Exhibit E hereto (as may be revised by the Holder in writing).
8.2 Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares and other property, if any, issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company shall deliver to the Holder a certificate of its Chief Financial Officer setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment and the method by which such adjustment was calculated and specifying the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants after giving effect to such adjustment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Holder objects to the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (after giving effect to the proposed adjustment) set forth in the certificate provided by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, the Company shall promptly obtain a certificate of an Independent Financial Expert appointed for such purpose setting forth the same information and detail as required in the immediately preceding sentence, and such certificate shall be used for the basis to effect the applicable adjustment to the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. The costs and expenses of such Independent Financial Expert shall be paid by the Holder, unless the calculations of the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (after giving effect to the proposed adjustment) set forth in the certificate of the Independent Financial Expert differ by 3% or more from the calculations set forth in the certificate provided by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, in which case such costs and expenses shall be paid by the Company.
8.3 Notice of Certain Transactions. In the event the Company shall propose to (i) distribute any dividend or other distribution to all holders of its Common Stock or options, warrants or other rights to receive such dividend or distribution, (ii) offer to all holders of its Common Stock Options to subscribe for or to purchase any Convertible Securities or shares of stock of any class or any other securities, rights or options, (iii) effect any capital reorganization, reclassification, consolidation or merger, (iv) effect the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company or (v) make a tender offer or exchange offer with respect to the Common Stock, the Company shall promptly send to the Holder a notice of such proposed action or offer in accordance with Section 8.1, which shall specify the record date for the purposes of such dividend, distribution or rights, or the date such issuance or event is to take place and the date of participation therein by the holders of Common Stock, if any such date is to be fixed, and shall briefly indicate the effect, if any, of such action on the Common Stock and on the number and kind of any other shares of stock and other property of the Company, if any, and the number of shares of Common Stock and other property, if any, issuable upon exercise of each Warrant and
19
the Exercise Price after giving effect to any such adjustment pursuant to Section 6 which will be required as a result of such action. Such notice shall be given as promptly as possible and, in any case, not less than fourteen (14) days prior to the date of the taking of such action, or participation therein, by the holders of Common Stock.
9. Certain Tax Covenants*.*
9.1 Tax Treatment. In accordance with Section 2.01(d) of the Financing Agreement, the parties hereto agree that (i) the Warrants issued hereunder, the Warrants issued under that certain “Common Stock Purchase Warrant” dated as of [·], 2025 and the Term Loan A and the Term Loan B issued under the Financing Agreement shall be treated as an “investment unit” within the meaning of Section 1273(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, (ii) the issue price of the investment unit will be allocated between the Term Loan A, the Term Loan B and such Warrants based on their relative fair market values on the Effective Date (as defined in the Financing Agreement) for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as determined collectively by the Company and the Required Lenders (as defined in the Financing Agreement) acting in good faith and (iii) no party hereto shall take a position contrary to the foregoing on any tax return unless required by an applicable change in law after the Effective Date or the good faith resolution of a tax audit or other tax proceeding.
9.2 Withholding. Each Holder shall at all times be a
“United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code and agrees to deliver to the Company a duly completed and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor form) with respect to such Holder (i) on or before the Issue Date, (ii) upon reasonable request by the Company and (iii) promptly upon learning that any such tax form previously provided by a Holder has become obsolete. The Company (or the applicable withholding agent) shall be entitled to withhold from any actual or deemed distributions with respect to Warrants or any payment in redemption of Warrants, in each case as determined for applicable tax purposes, any applicable withholding taxes and any such withheld amounts shall be treated as paid to the applicable payee for all purposes of this Warrant.
10. Registration Rights.
10.1 Registration Statement. The Company shall file, within 60 calendar days of the Eligible Exercise Date, a registration statement for a shelf registration on Form S-3 (the “Form S-3 Shelf”), or if the Company is ineligible to use a Form S-3 Shelf, a registration statement for a shelf registration on Form S-1 (the “Form S-1 Shelf” and, together with the Form S-3 Shelf (and any Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement (as defined below)), each, a “Shelf” or “Registration Statement”), in each case, covering the resale of all the Warrant Shares (determined as of two (2) Business Days prior to such filing) on a delayed or continuous basis; provided that the Holder shall have delivered to the Company all reasonably requested information regarding the Holder and its beneficial ownership of Warrant Shares not later than five (5) Business Days prior to the filing of the Registration Statement. The Shelf shall provide for the resale of the Warrant Shares pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by, the Holder.
20
10.2 Effectiveness of Registration Statement. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Shelf to become effective as soon as practicable after such filing, but no later than the earlier of (i) 45 calendar days after the filing thereof (or, in the event the Commission reviews and has written comments to the Registration Statement, the 90th calendar day following the filing thereof), (ii) the fifth Business Day after the date the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review, or (iii) if the day determined under clause (i) or clause (ii) falls on a Saturday, Sunday or other day that the Commission is closed for business, the next Business Day immediately following the day determined under clause (i) or clause (ii) on which the Commission is open for business (the date determined under clause (i), (ii) or (iii), the “EffectivenessDeadline”). The Company shall maintain a Shelf in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and shall prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and supplements as may be reasonably necessary to keep such Shelf continuously effective, available for use and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the Warrant Shares held by a Holder until the earlier of (A) such time as all Warrant Shares issuable to such Holder have been sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of pursuant to a Registration Statement or Rule 144, or (B) such time as all remaining Warrant Shares held by, or issuable to, such Holder may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without regard to any volume or manner of sale requirement thereunder assuming all Warrants held by the Holder with respect to such Warrant Shares were or will be exercised in accordance with Section 1.3 and all restrictive legends on Warrants and/or Warrant Shares have been removed.
10.3 Conversion of Registration Statement. In the event the Company files a Form S-1 Shelf, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to convert the Form S-1 Shelf (and any Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement) to a Form S-3 Shelf as soon as reasonably practicable after the Company is eligible to use Form S-3.
10.4 Continued Effectiveness. If any Shelf ceases to be effective under the Securities Act for any reason at any time during the period described in Section 10.2 and while there are any Warrants outstanding, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as promptly as is reasonably practicable cause such Shelf to again become effective under the Securities Act (including using its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf), and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to, as promptly as is reasonably practicable, amend such Shelf in a manner reasonably expected to result in the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf or file an additional registration statement as a Shelf (a “Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement”) registering the resale of all Warrant Shares from time to time, and pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and reasonably requested by, any Holder whose Warrant Shares are included therein. Any such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be on Form S-3 to the extent that the Company is eligible to use such form. Otherwise, such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be on another appropriate form.
If a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement is filed, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement to become effective under the Securities Act as promptly as is reasonably practicable after the filing
21
thereof and (ii) keep such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective and available for use for the remainder of the period set forth in Section 10.2.
10.5 Notice of Stop Order. The Company shall provide to the Holder prompt written notice of any time that (i) the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) has issued a stop order with respect to the Registration Statement, (ii) the Commission otherwise has suspended or withdrawn the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, either temporarily or permanently, or (iii) the Company has suspended or withdrawn the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, either temporarily or permanently. In the event of such notice, the Company shall, at the election of the Holder, which shall be given within five (5) days of receipt of such notice, either (y) rescind any previously submitted (and outstanding) Notice of Exercise and the Company shall return all consideration paid by the Holder for the applicable Warrant Shares upon such rescission or (z) treat the attempted exercise as a cashless exercise as described in Section 1.3 and refund the cash portion of the Exercise Price to the Holder.
10.6 Expenses. In connection with any registration pursuant to this Section 10, the Company shall pay any applicable filing fee with respect to the Registration Statement and any Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement, and pay its own direct costs, including the professional fees of its own counsel and independent registered accountants. The Holder shall bear the cost of its own counsel, other advisors and any broker or other intermediary involved in any resale, including all applicable underwriting discounts and commissions, brokers’ commissions and stock transfer taxes, if any, on the Warrant Shares sold by the Holder in any such resale.
10.7 Updating Registration Statement. Upon receipt of written notice from the Company that a Registration Statement or prospectus contains a Misstatement, the Holder shall forthwith discontinue disposition of securities pursuant to such Registration Statement or prospectus until it has received copies of a supplemented or amended prospectus correcting the Misstatement (and the Company covenants to prepare and file such supplement or amendment as soon as reasonably practicable after giving such notice), or until it is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the prospectus may be resumed.
10.8 Adverse Disclosure. If the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement in respect of any registration at any time would require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure or would require the inclusion in such Registration Statement of financial statements that are unavailable to the Company, the Company may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holder, delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, such Registration Statement for the shortest period of time, but in no event more than three times or an aggregate of 120 days in any 12-month period, determined in good faith by the Board to be necessary for such purpose. In the event the Company exercises its rights under the preceding sentence, the Holder agrees to suspend, immediately upon its receipt of the notice referred to above, its use of the prospectus relating to such registration in connection with any sale of, or offer to sell, securities pursuant to such Registration Statement or prospectus. The Company shall immediately notify the Holder of the expiration of any period during which it exercised its rights under this Section 10.
10.9 Indemnification. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Holder, its officers, managers, directors, trustees, equityholders, beneficiaries, Affiliates, agents
22
and representatives and each Person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) (or actions in respect thereto) caused by, resulting from, arising out of or based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or similar document incident to any registration, qualification, compliance or sale effected pursuant to this Section 10 or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (ii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act or any other similar federal or state securities laws, and will reimburse, as incurred, the Holder, its officers, managers, directors, trustees, equityholders, beneficiaries, Affiliates, agents and representatives and each Person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is caused by or arises out of or is based on any untrue statement or omission made in reliance and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the Holder expressly for use therein.
10.10 Restrictive Legends. The Company shall, upon the Holder’s request, deliver all the necessary documentation to cause the Company’s transfer agent to remove any restrictive legend on the Warrants or Warrant Shares, as promptly as reasonably practicable and no later than two (2) Trading Days after such request, when the Warrants or Warrant Shares are sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or a Registration Statement, in each case in accordance with customary practice and in each case upon receipt by the Company of customary certifications from the Holder and any broker or other intermediary involved in the sale as to Holder’s and such broker’s or intermediary’s compliance with Rule 144 or such Registration Statement. In connection therewith, if required by the Company’s transfer agent, the Company will, at its sole cost and expense, promptly cause an opinion of counsel in customary form to be delivered to and maintained with its transfer agent, together with any other authorizations, certificates and directions required by the transfer agent that authorize and direct the transfer agent to deliver such Warrants or Warrant Shares without any such legend. If restrictive legends are no longer required for the Warrants or Warrant Shares pursuant to the foregoing, the Company shall, reasonably promptly following any request therefor from the Holder accompanied by such customary and reasonably acceptable representations and other documentation referred to above establishing that restrictive legends are no longer required, deliver to the transfer agent irrevocable instructions that the transfer agent shall make a new entry for the securities free of any restrictive legend. The Holder, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges and agrees that the removal of any restrictive legend from any securities as set forth herein is predicated upon the Company’s reliance that the Holder will sell such securities pursuant either to the registration requirements of the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom, and that if such securities are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement, they will be sold when such Registration Statement is effective and available for resales of such securities, in compliance with the plan of distribution set forth therein. The Company and its counsel and transfer agent shall be entitled to rely on the foregoing agreement and/or such certificate of the Holder and any broker or other intermediary involved in such sale in issuing instruction letters and opinions.
23
11. No Rights as Stockholder until Exercise. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any of the rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof, including, without limitation, the right to receive dividends or other distributions, exercise any rights to vote or to consent or to receive notice as stockholders in respect of the meetings of stockholders or the election of directors of the Company or any other matter. No provision hereof and no mere enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the Exercise Price hereunder or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.
12. Successors and Assigns. Subject to the transfer conditions referred to in the legend on the Warrant, the Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, by the Holder, upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company; provided, however, that the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment by the Holder of a sum sufficient to reimburse the Company for any transfer tax incidental thereto; provided, further, that this Warrant may only be transferred to a Person that is a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code. Upon such compliance, surrender and delivery, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees and in the denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant, if any, not so assigned and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. The terms and provisions of this Warrant shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the Company and the Holder and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
13. Governing Law. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to conflict of law principles.
14. Severability. In the event that one or more of the provisions of this Warrant shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Warrant, but this Warrant shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. Furthermore, in lieu of any such invalid or unenforceable term or provision, the parties hereto intend that there shall be added as a part of this Agreement a provision as similar in terms to such invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be valid and enforceable.
15. Change or Waiver. Any term of this Warrant may be changed or waived only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which enforcement is sought.
16. Headings. The headings in this Warrant are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning of any provision of this Warrant.
17. Counterparts. This Warrant may be executed in any number of original or facsimile counterparts and each of such counterparts shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.
18. Remedies. The remedies provided in this Warrant shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Warrant, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the right of the parties to pursue actual damages for any failure by the other party to comply with the terms of
24
this Warrant. The parties acknowledge that a breach or threatened breach by it of its obligations hereunder would give rise to irreparable harm to the other party, and monetary damages for any such breach would not be an adequate remedy. The parties therefore agree that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the other party shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to equitable relief, including an injunction restraining any breach, specific performance, and any other relief that may be available from a court of competent jurisdiction, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required. In the event of any dispute between the parties concerning the terms and provisions of this Warrant, the party prevailing in such dispute shall be entitled to collect from the other party all costs incurred in such dispute, including reasonable attorneys’ fees.
19. No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company shall not, on or after the date hereof, enter into any agreement with respect to its securities which conflicts with the rights granted to the Holder hereunder. The Company represents and warrants to the Holder that the rights granted hereunder do not in any way conflict with the rights granted to holders of the Company’s securities under any other agreements.

1.1 General Exercise. Subject to Section 1.6, this Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part by the Holder at any time and from time to time after the Issue Date and on or prior to the close of business on the Expiration Date. Any exercise of this Warrant may be conditioned upon the occurrence of (a) a Public Sale of the Warrant Shares or (b) any event described in Section 8.3(iii). Such conditional exercise shall be deemed revoked if such event or transaction does not occur on the date, or within the dates, specified in the applicable notice provided by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to Section 8 (if such a notice was provided).
1.2 Exercise for Cash. This Warrant may be exercised (a “Cash Exercise”) by delivering this Warrant to the Company at its principal executive office, or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, accompanied by (i) the “Purchase Form” attached as Exhibit A hereto duly completed and executed on behalf of the Holder and (ii) a payment to the Company in the amount equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of whole Warrant Shares in respect of which this Warrant is then exercised, plus all taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 2. This Warrant may not be exercised for a fraction of a Warrant Share.
1.3 Exercise by Net Share Settlement. This Warrant may be exercised, in whole or in part (an “Exercise by Net Share Settlement”), into the number of Warrant Shares determined in accordance with this Section 1.3 by delivering this Warrant to the Company at its principal executive office, or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, accompanied by (i) the “Notice of Exercise by Net Share Settlement” attached hereto as Exhibit B duly completed and executed on behalf of the Holder and (ii) a payment to the Company for any taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 2. In the event of an Exercise by Net Share Settlement, the Company shall issue to the Holder a number of Warrant Shares (subject to Section 5) computed using the following formula:
X = Y (A - B)
A
where:
5
X = the net number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder pursuant to the Exercise by Net Share Settlement;
Y = the gross number of Warrant Shares in respect of which the Exercise by Net Share Settlement is made;
A = the Market Price as of the Exercise Date; and
B = the Exercise Price.
1.4 Issuance of Certificate(s); Authorization. Upon surrender of this Warrant and full compliance with each of the other requirements in Section 1.2, in the case of a Cash Exercise, and Section 1.3, in the case of an Exercise by Net Share Settlement, the Company shall, promptly, and in any event, within two (2) Trading Days, either (i) issue and cause to be delivered a certificate or certificates to the Holder, or upon the written request of the Holder, in and to such name or names as the Holder may designate, a certificate or certificates for the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the Cash Exercise or the Exercise by Net Share Settlement, as the case may be, or (ii) instruct its transfer agent to register in book entry form and, if such transfer agent is participating in The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, credit such aggregate number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the Cash Exercise or the Exercise by Net Share Settlement, as the case may be, to the Holder’s (or, upon the written request of the Holder, to its designee’s or designees’) balance account(s) with DTC through its Deposit / Withdrawal At Custodian System. Such certificate or certificates (or book entry shares) shall not be deemed to have been issued, and any Person so designated to be named therein shall not be deemed to have become or have any rights of a holder of record of such Warrant Shares, until all requirements set forth in Section 1.2, in the case of a Cash Exercise, and Section 1.3, in the case of an Exercise by Net Share Settlement, have been fully met by the Holder. The certificate(s) (or book entry shares) representing the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant shall bear the restrictive legend substantially in the form set forth on Exhibit C hereto; provided that, upon the reasonable request of the Holder, at any time, and from time to time, when such legend is no longer required under the Securities Act or applicable state laws, the Company shall promptly remove such legend from any certificate representing the Warrant Shares (or issue one or more new certificates representing such Warrant Shares, which certificate(s) shall not contain a legend). The Company hereby represents and warrants that any shares of Common Stock issued upon the exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the provisions of Sections 1.2 and/or 1.3 will be duly and validly authorized and issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges (other than taxes, liens or charges created by the Holder or taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously therewith). The Company agrees that the Warrant Shares so issued will be deemed to have been issued to the Holder (and the Holder shall be the beneficial owner thereof) as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant and payment of the Exercise Price are delivered to the Company in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, notwithstanding that the stock transfer books of the Company may then be closed or certificates representing such Warrant Shares may not be actually delivered on such date.
1.5 Full or Partial Exercise. This Warrant shall be exercisable, at the election of the Holder, either in full or in part and, in the event that this Warrant is exercised in respect of fewer than all of the Warrant Shares issuable on such exercise at any time prior to the Expiration
6
Date, the Company shall promptly issue a new certificate evidencing the remaining Warrant or Warrants, in a form substantially identical hereto, in the name of the Holder, and delivered to the Holder or to another Person that the Holder has designated for delivery as soon as practicable, and in any event not exceeding three (3) Business Days from such exercise.
1.6 Restrictions on Exercise. The Holder will not be permitted to exercise the right to purchase Warrant Shares if and to the extent, as a result of such exercise, either (i) such Holder’s, together with such Holder’s Affiliates’, aggregate voting power on any matter that could be voted on by holders of the Common Stock would exceed 19.9% of the Maximum Voting Power or (ii) such Holder, together with such Holder’s Affiliates, would beneficially own more than 19.9% of the then outstanding Common Stock; provided, however, that such exercise restriction shall not apply in connection with and subject to completion of (A) a Public Sale of the Warrant Shares to be issued upon such exercise, (B) a bona fide third party tender offer for the Common Stock issuable thereupon, or (C) a Liquidity Event if, in the case of each of clauses (A), (B) and (C), such Holder and its Affiliates will not beneficially own in excess of 19.9% of the then outstanding Common Stock following the consummation of such event. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates shall include the number of Warrant Shares to be issued with respect to which a Notice of Exercise by Net Share Settlement or Purchase Form has been given and the shares of Common Stock to be issued in connection with the exercise of any other outstanding warrants beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its Affiliates. Upon the written request of the Holder, the Company shall within two (2) Trading Days confirm in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. The restrictions contained in this paragraph shall automatically terminate upon the consummation of a Liquidity Event with respect to the surviving Person (if other than the Company).
In no event shall this Warrant be exercised for a number of Warrant Shares that would require shareholder approval pursuant to Nasdaq Rule 5635 (or successor rule) unless such shareholder approval is obtained. The Company covenants that it will not take any action that would result in an adjustment to the Exercise Price or number of Warrant Shares that would require such shareholder approval without first obtaining shareholder approval.
1.7 Automatic Cashless Exercise upon Expiration. In the event that, upon the Expiration Date, the Market Price is greater than the Exercise Price in effect on such date, then this Warrant shall automatically be deemed on and as of the Expiration Date to be exercised pursuant to Section 1.3 above as to all Warrant Shares for which it shall not previously have been exercised (the “AutomaticExercise”), and the Company shall take such other actions as required pursuant to Section 1.4 in connection with such Automatic Exercise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Automatic Exercise shall be subject to the provisions and limitations set forth in Section 1.6.
2. Paymentof Taxes. Issuance of certificates for 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 certificate, all of which taxes (other than any such taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously therewith) and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates 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 certificates for Warrant Shares are to
7
be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by a properly executed assignment form in the form attached as Exhibit D hereto, and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.
3. Mutilated,Missing or Lost Warrant. In the event that this Warrant shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue and countersign, in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of the mutilated Warrant, or in lieu of and substitution for its loss, theft or destruction, a new Warrant with identical terms, representing an equivalent number of Warrant Shares and dated the same date as this Warrant that was mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, but only upon receipt of evidence and indemnity or other security reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft or destruction of this Warrant; provided, however, that in the event a new Warrant is issued pursuant to this Section 3 in a name other than the name of the Holder on the date the Warrant was mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Holder shall present to the Company, in addition to the requirements of this Section 3, a properly executed assignment in the form attached as Exhibit D hereto, and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.
4. Reservationof Warrant Shares.
4.1 At all times prior to the Expiration Date, the Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon the exercise of this Warrant, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the aggregate Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary to assure that all such shares of Common Stock may be so issued without violating the Company’s governing documents, any agreements to which the Company is a party on the date hereof, any requirements of any national securities exchange upon which shares of Common Stock may be listed or any applicable laws. The Company shall not take any action which would cause the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to be less than the number of such shares required to be reserved hereunder for issuance upon exercise of the Warrants.
4.2 The Company covenants that it will take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that all Warrant Shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant will, upon issuance in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, be fully paid and non-assessable, and free from any and all (i) security interests created by or imposed upon the Company and (ii) taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof. If at any time prior to the Expiration Date the number and kind of authorized but unissued shares of the Company’s Common Stock shall not be sufficient to permit exercise in full of this Warrant, the Company will as promptly as reasonably practicable take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be reasonably necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will not increase the stated or par value per share, if any, of the Common Stock above the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such increase in stated or par value.
4.3 The Company represents and warrants to the Holders that the issuance of this Warrant and the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise thereof in accordance
8
with the terms hereof will not constitute a breach of, or a default under, any other material agreements to which the Company is a party on the date hereof and that this Warrant constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company.
5. FractionalShares. No fractional Warrant Shares, or scrip for any such fractional Warrant Shares, shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. If any fraction of a share of Common Stock would, except for the provisions of this Section 5, be issuable on the exercise of any Warrant, the Holder shall be entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the Market Price of the Common Stock less the Exercise Price for such fractional Warrant Share.
6. Anti-dilutionAdjustments and Other Rights. The number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:
6.1 Changes to Common Stock. If the Company (i) declares, orders, pays or makes a dividend or a distribution on its Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of the Warrants), (ii) splits, subdivides or reclassifies its outstanding Common Stock into a larger number of shares of Common Stock, (iii) combines or reclassifies its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock or (iv) increases or decreases the number of Common Stock outstanding by reclassification of its shares of Common Stock, then in each case, the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable will be adjusted based on the following formula:
NS’ = NS0 x OS’
OS0
where:
| NS’ | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable in effect immediately after such event; |
|---|---|---|
| NS0 | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable in effect immediately prior to such event; |
| --- | --- | --- |
| OS’ | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event; and |
| --- | --- | --- |
| OS0 | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event. |
| --- | --- | --- |
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day following the date fixed for such determination. The Company will not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in treasury by the Company. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this Section 6.1 is declared but not so paid or made, the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall again be adjusted to be the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant would be exercisable if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.
9
6.2 Options. If the Company issues to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock any Options entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock, subject to the last paragraph of this Section 6.2, at a price per share of Common Stock less than the Market Price per share of Common Stock on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance, the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable will be adjusted based on the following formula:
NS’ = NS0 x OS0+X
OS0+Y
where:
| NS’ | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable in effect immediately after such event; |
|---|---|---|
| NS0 | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable in effect immediately prior to such event; |
| --- | --- | --- |
| OS0 | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event; |
| --- | --- | --- |
| X | = | the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such Options; and |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Y | = | the number of shares of Common Stock equal to (i)(A) the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such Options multiplied by (B) the price per share of Common Stock payable to exercise such Options, divided by (ii) the Market Price per share of Common Stock as of the record date. |
| --- | --- | --- |
Such adjustment shall be successively made whenever any such Options are issued and shall become effective immediately after 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day following the date fixed for such determination. The Company shall not issue any such Options in respect of shares of Common Stock held in treasury by the Company. To the extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such Options, the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be readjusted to be the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant would be exercisable had the adjustments made upon the issuance of such Options been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered. If such Options are not so issued, the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall again be adjusted to be the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant would be exercisable if such date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such Options had not been fixed. No adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section 6.2 which shall have the effect of decreasing the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.
In determining whether any Options entitle the Holder to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at less than such Market Price, and in determining the aggregate price payable to exercise such Options, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the
10
Company for such Options and any amount payable on exercise thereof, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.
In the event the Company adopts or implements a shareholder rights agreement (a “Shareholder Rights Plan”) pursuant to which rights (“Rights”) are distributed to the holders of Common Stock of the Company and such Shareholder Rights Plan provides that each Warrant Share issued upon exercise of this Warrant at any time prior to the distribution of separate certificates representing such Rights will be entitled to receive such Rights, then there shall not be any adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant or Exercise Price at any time prior to the distribution of separate certificates representing such Rights. If, however, prior to any exercise, the Rights have separated from the Common Stock, the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be adjusted at the time of separation as described in this Section 6.2.
6.3 Cash and Other Distributions. If the Company fixes a record date for the making of any distribution of cash, shares of its Common Stock, other securities, evidences of indebtedness or other assets or property of the Company to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, excluding:
| (i) | dividends or distributions and Options referred to in Sections 6.1 or 6.2; and |
|---|---|
| (ii) | cash distributions in connection with the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up; |
| --- | --- |
then the Holder shall receive, simultaneously with the distribution to the holders of the Company’s Common Stock, a dividend or other distribution of such cash or securities in an amount equal to the amount of such cash or securities as the Holder would have received if the Warrant had been exercised in full into Warrant Shares on the date of such event.
6.4 Adjustment Upon Issuance of Common Stock. Except in the case of (i) Common Stock issued by the Company in connection with any Excluded Securities and (ii) an event described in either Section 6.1 or Section 6.2, if the Company shall, at any time or from time to time after the Issue Date, issue or sell any shares of Common Stock or is deemed to have issued or sold any shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 6.4.3, in each case, without consideration or for consideration or having a combined purchase and conversion, exchange or exercise price of less than $1.00 per share of Common Stock (the “Minimum Price”), the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable will be adjusted based on the following formula:
NS’ = NS0 x DOS’
DOS0 + Z
where:
| NS’ | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable in effect immediately after such issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale); |
|---|
11
| NS0 | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable in effect immediately prior to such issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale); |
|---|---|---|
| DOS’ | = | the Common Stock Deemed Outstanding as of immediately after such issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale); |
| --- | --- | --- |
| DOS0 | = | the Common Stock Deemed Outstanding as of immediately prior to such issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale); and |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Z | = | the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate amount of consideration, if any, received by the Company upon such issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale) would purchase at the Minimum Price. |
| --- | --- | --- |
For the purposes of any adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a Warrant pursuant to this Section 6, the following provisions shall be applicable:
6.4.1 In the case of the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities for cash, the amount of the consideration received by the Company shall be deemed to be the amount of the gross cash proceeds received by the Company for such securities before deducting from such amount any discounts or commissions allowed, paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale of such Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities.
6.4.2 In the case of the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities (other than upon the conversion of stock or other securities of the Company) for consideration in whole or in part other than cash, including securities acquired in exchange for such shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities (other than securities by their terms so exchangeable), the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair market value thereof.
6.4.3 In the case of the issuance of Convertible Securities or Options (in each case, whether or not at the time so convertible, exchangeable or exercisable): (i) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion, exchange or exercise of such Convertible Securities or Options shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such Convertible Securities or Options are issued and for consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in this Section 6.4), if any, received by the Company upon the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities or Options plus the minimum purchase price provided in such Convertible Securities or Options for shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion, exchange or exercise by such Convertible Securities or Options; and (ii) if the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a Warrant shall have been adjusted upon the issuance or sale of any Convertible Securities or Options, no further adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a Warrant shall be made for the actual issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities or Options.
6.5 No Adjustment if Participating. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6, no adjustment shall be made thereunder, nor shall an adjustment be made to the ability of a Holder to exercise, for any distribution described therein if the Holder will otherwise
12
participate in the distribution with respect to its Warrant Shares without exercise of this Warrant (without giving effect to any separate exercise of preemptive rights).
6.6 No Adjustment. No adjustment to the Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable need be made:
6.6.1 upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on securities of the Company and the investment of additional optional amounts in shares of Common Stock under any plan;
6.6.2 upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or Options to purchase shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future employee, director or consultant benefit plan or program of or assumed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries;
6.6.3 upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any Option, or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security not described in Section 6.2 and outstanding as of the Issue Date or issued in exchange for (or as a replacement of) any such security outstanding as of the Issue Date; or
6.6.4 for a change in the par value of the Common Stock.
6.7 Calculations. All adjustments made to the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of each Warrant pursuant to this Section 6 shall be calculated to the nearest one-ten thousandth of a Warrant Share (0.0001). Except as described in this Section 6, the Company will not adjust the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable.
No adjustments of the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant that would otherwise be required shall be made unless and until such adjustment either by itself or with other adjustments not previously made increases or decreases by at least 0.1% the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to the making of such adjustment. Any adjustment representing a change of less than such minimum amount shall be carried forward and made as soon as such adjustment, together with other adjustments required by this Section 6 and not previously made, would result in such minimum adjustment.
6.8 Adjustment Event. In any case in which this Section 6 provides that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after (i) a record date or record date for an event, (ii) the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive a dividend or distribution pursuant to this Section 6 or (iii) a date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive Options pursuant to this Section 6 (each, a “Determination Date”), the Company may elect to defer until the occurrence of the applicable Adjustment Event (x) issuing to the Holder of any Warrant exercised after such Determination Date and before the occurrence of such Adjustment Event, the additional shares of Common Stock or other securities issuable upon such exercise by reason of the adjustment required by such Adjustment Event over and above the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion before giving effect to such adjustment and (y) paying to such Holder any amount in cash in lieu of any fraction pursuant to Section 5. For purposes of this Section 6, the term “Adjustment Event” shall mean:
13
| (A) | in any case referred to in clause (i) hereof, the occurrence of such event; |
|---|---|
| (B) | in any case referred to in clause (ii) hereof, the date any such dividend or distribution is paid<br>or made; and |
| --- | --- |
| (C) | in any case referred to in clause (iii) hereof, the earlier of the date of expiration or the date<br>of full exercise of such Options. |
| --- | --- |
6.9 Number of Shares Outstanding. For purposes of this Section 6, the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company will not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company.
6.10 Successive Adjustments. Successive adjustments in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be made, without duplication, whenever any event specified in this Section 6 shall occur.
6.11 Adjustment for Unspecified Actions. If the Company takes any action affecting the Common Stock, other than any action described in this Section 6, which in the opinion of the Board would materially adversely affect the exercise rights of the Holder, then the number of Warrant Shares received upon exercise of this Warrant may be adjusted, to the extent permitted by law, in such manner, if any, and at such time as the Board may determine in good faith to be equitable in the circumstances; provided, however, that in no event shall any adjustment have the effect of increasing the Exercise Price or decreasing the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant may be exercised.
7. LiquidityEvent. Any recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, or other transaction, which, in each case, is effected in such a way that all of the holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive (either directly or upon subsequent related dividend, distribution or liquidation) cash, stock, securities or assets (or a combination of the foregoing) with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock (other than a transaction that triggers an adjustment pursuant to Sections 6.1 or 6.2) is referred to herein as a “Liquidity Event”. In connection with any Liquidity Event, each Holder shall have the right to acquire and receive, upon exercise of such Warrants, such cash, stock, securities or other assets or property as would have been issued or payable in such Liquidity Event (if such Holder had exercised such Warrant immediately prior to such Liquidity Event) with respect to or in exchange, as applicable, for the number of Warrant Shares that would have been issued upon exercise of such Warrants. The Company shall not effect any Liquidity Event unless simultaneously with the consummation thereof, the surviving or resulting Person (if other than the Company) resulting from such Liquidity Event shall assume in all material respects (including with respect to the provisions of Section 6 and this Section 7), the obligation to deliver to the Holder such cash, stock, securities or other assets or property which, in accordance with the foregoing provision, the Holder shall be entitled to receive upon exercise of the Warrants. The provisions of this Section 7 shall similarly apply to successive Liquidity Events.

Except as otherwise expressly provided hereunder, all notices referred to herein shall be in writing and shall be delivered by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid, or by reputable overnight courier service, charges prepaid, and shall be deemed to have been given when so mailed or sent (i) to the Company, at its principal executive offices and (ii) to the Holder, at the Holder’s address as it appears in the stock records of the Company (unless otherwise indicated by the Holder in writing), and to such other Persons identified in Exhibit E hereto (as may be revised by the Holder in writing).

The Shelf shall provide for the resale of the Warrant Shares pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by, the Holder.

10.3 Conversion of Registration Statement. In the event the Company files a Form S-1 Shelf, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to convert the Form S-1 Shelf (and any Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement) to a Form S-3 Shelf as soon as reasonably practicable after the Company is eligible to use Form S-3.
10.4 Continued Effectiveness. If any Shelf ceases to be effective under the Securities Act for any reason at any time during the period described in Section 10.2 and while there are any Warrants outstanding, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as promptly as is reasonably practicable cause such Shelf to again become effective under the Securities Act (including using its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf), and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to, as promptly as is reasonably practicable, amend such Shelf in a manner reasonably expected to result in the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf or file an additional registration statement as a Shelf (a “SubsequentShelf Registration Statement”) registering the resale of all Warrant Shares from time to time, and pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and reasonably requested by, any Holder whose Warrant Shares are included therein. Any such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be on Form S-3 to the extent that the Company is eligible to use such form. Otherwise, such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be on another appropriate form.
If a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement is filed, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement to become effective under the Securities Act as promptly as is reasonably practicable after the filing thereof and (ii) keep such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective and available for use for the remainder of the period set forth in Section 10.2.

17
Registration Statement, either temporarily or permanently.

10.6 Expenses. In connection with any registration pursuant to this Section 10, the Company shall pay any applicable filing fee with respect to the Registration Statement and any Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement, and pay its own direct costs, including the professional fees of its own counsel and independent registered accountants. The Holder shall bear the cost of its own counsel, other advisors and any broker or other intermediary involved in any resale, including all applicable underwriting discounts and commissions, brokers’ commissions and stock transfer taxes, if any, on the Warrant Shares sold by the Holder in any such resale.
10.7 Updating Registration Statement. Upon receipt of written notice from the Company that a Registration Statement or prospectus contains a Misstatement, the Holder shall forthwith discontinue disposition of securities pursuant to such Registration Statement or prospectus until it has received copies of a supplemented or amended prospectus correcting the Misstatement (and the Company covenants to prepare and file such supplement or amendment as soon as reasonably practicable after giving such notice), or until it is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the prospectus may be resumed.
10.8 Adverse Disclosure. If the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement in respect of any registration at any time would require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure or would require the inclusion in such Registration Statement of financial statements that are unavailable to the Company, the Company may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holder, delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, such Registration Statement for the shortest period of time, but in no event more than three times or an aggregate of 120 days in any 12-month period, determined in good faith by the Board to be necessary for such purpose. In the event the Company exercises its rights under the preceding sentence, the Holder agrees to suspend, immediately upon its receipt of the notice referred to above, its use of the prospectus relating to such registration in connection with any sale of, or offer to sell, securities pursuant to such Registration Statement or prospectus. The Company shall immediately notify the Holder of the expiration of any period during which it exercised its rights under this Section 10.
10.9 Indemnification. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Holder, its officers, managers, directors, trustees, equityholders, beneficiaries, Affiliates, agents and representatives and each Person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) (or actions in respect thereto) caused by, resulting from, arising out of or based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or similar document incident to any registration, qualification, compliance or sale effected pursuant to this Section 10 or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (ii) any violation or alleged
18
violation by the Company of the Securities Act or any other similar federal or state securities laws, and will reimburse, as incurred, the Holder, its officers, managers, directors, trustees, equityholders, beneficiaries, Affiliates, agents and representatives and each Person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is caused by or arises out of or is based on any untrue statement or omission made in reliance and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the Holder expressly for use therein.
10.10 Restrictive Legends. The Company shall, upon the Holder’s request, deliver all the necessary documentation to cause the Company’s transfer agent to remove any restrictive legend on the Warrants or Warrant Shares, as promptly as reasonably practicable and no later than two (2) Trading Days after such request, when the Warrants or Warrant Shares are sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or a Registration Statement, in each case in accordance with customary practice and in each case upon receipt by the Company of customary certifications from the Holder and any broker or other intermediary involved in the sale as to Holder’s and such broker’s or intermediary’s compliance with Rule 144 or such Registration Statement. In connection therewith, if required by the Company’s transfer agent, the Company will, at its sole cost and expense, promptly cause an opinion of counsel in customary form to be delivered to and maintained with its transfer agent, together with any other authorizations, certificates and directions required by the transfer agent that authorize and direct the transfer agent to deliver such Warrants or Warrant Shares without any such legend. If restrictive legends are no longer required for the Warrants or Warrant Shares pursuant to the foregoing, the Company shall, reasonably promptly following any request therefor from the Holder accompanied by such customary and reasonably acceptable representations and other documentation referred to above establishing that restrictive legends are no longer required, deliver to the transfer agent irrevocable instructions that the transfer agent shall make a new entry for the securities free of any restrictive legend. The Holder, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges and agrees that the removal of any restrictive legend from any securities as set forth herein is predicated upon the Company’s reliance that the Holder will sell such securities pursuant either to the registration requirements of the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom, and that if such securities are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement, they will be sold when such Registration Statement is effective and available for resales of such securities, in compliance with the plan of distribution set forth therein. The Company and its counsel and transfer agent shall be entitled to rely on the foregoing agreement and/or such certificate of the Holder and any broker or other intermediary involved in such sale in issuing instruction letters and opinions.
11. NoRights as Stockholder until Exercise. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any of the rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof, including, without limitation, the right to receive dividends or other distributions, exercise any rights to vote or to consent or to receive notice as stockholders in respect of the meetings of stockholders or the election of directors of the Company or any other matter. No provision hereof and no mere enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the Exercise Price hereunder or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.
19
12. Successorsand Assigns. Subject to the transfer conditions referred to in the legend on the Warrant, the Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, by the Holder, upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company; provided, however, that the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment by the Holder of a sum sufficient to reimburse the Company for any transfer tax incidental thereto; provided, further, that this Warrant may only be transferred to a Person that is a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code. Upon such compliance, surrender and delivery, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees and in the denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant, if any, not so assigned and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. The terms and provisions of this Warrant shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the Company and the Holder and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
13. GoverningLaw. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to conflict of law principles.
14. Severability. In the event that one or more of the provisions of this Warrant shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Warrant, but this Warrant shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. Furthermore, in lieu of any such invalid or unenforceable term or provision, the parties hereto intend that there shall be added as a part of this Agreement a provision as similar in terms to such invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be valid and enforceable.
15. Changeor Waiver. Any term of this Warrant may be changed or waived only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which enforcement is sought.
16. Headings. The headings in this Warrant are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning of any provision of this Warrant.
17. Counterparts. This Warrant may be executed in any number of original or facsimile counterparts and each of such counterparts shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.
18. Remedies. The remedies provided in this Warrant shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Warrant, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the right of the parties to pursue actual damages for any failure by the other party to comply with the terms of this Warrant. The parties acknowledge that a breach or threatened breach by it of its obligations hereunder would give rise to irreparable harm to the other party, and monetary damages for any such breach would not be an adequate remedy. The parties therefore agree that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the other party shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to equitable relief, including an injunction restraining any breach, specific performance, and any other relief that may be available from a court of competent jurisdiction, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required. In the event of any dispute between the parties concerning the terms and provisions of
20
this Warrant, the party prevailing in such dispute shall be entitled to collect from the other party all costs incurred in such dispute, including reasonable attorneys’ fees.
19. NoInconsistent Agreements. The Company shall not, on or after the date hereof, enter into any agreement with respect to its securities which conflicts with the rights granted to the Holder hereunder. The Company represents and warrants to the Holder that the rights granted hereunder do not in any way conflict with the rights granted to holders of the Company’s securities under any other agreements.

1. Exercise of Warrants.
1.1 General Exercise. Subject to Section 1.6, this Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part by the Holder at any time and from time to time on and after the Eligible Exercise Date and on or prior to the close of business on the Expiration Date; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the Eligible Exercise Date, this Warrant shall entitle the Holder to the rights set forth in Section 7 in the event of a Change of Control that occurs before or after the Eligible Exercise Date. Any exercise of this Warrant may be conditioned upon the occurrence of (a) a Public Sale of the Warrant Shares or (b) any event described in Section 8.3(iii). Such conditional exercise shall be deemed revoked if such event or transaction does not occur on the date, or within the dates, specified in the applicable notice provided by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to Section 8 (if such a notice was provided).
1.2 Exercise for Cash. This Warrant may be exercised (a “Cash Exercise”) by delivering this Warrant to the Company at its principal executive office, or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, accompanied by (i) the “Purchase Form” attached as Exhibit A hereto duly completed and executed on behalf of the Holder and (ii) a payment to the Company in the amount equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of whole Warrant Shares in respect of which this Warrant is then exercised, plus all taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 2. This Warrant may not be exercised for a fraction of a Warrant Share.
6
1.3 Exercise by Net Share Settlement. This Warrant may be exercised, in whole or in part (an “Exerciseby Net Share Settlement”), into the number of Warrant Shares determined in accordance with this Section 1.3 by delivering this Warrant to the Company at its principal executive office, or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, accompanied by (i) the “Notice of Exercise by Net Share Settlement” attached hereto as Exhibit B duly completed and executed on behalf of the Holder and (ii) a payment to the Company for any taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 2. In the event of an Exercise by Net Share Settlement, the Company shall issue to the Holder a number of Warrant Shares (subject to Section 5) computed using the following formula:
| X = Y (A - B) |
|---|
| A |
where:
X = the net number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder pursuant to the Exercise by Net Share Settlement;
Y = the gross number of Warrant Shares in respect of which the Exercise by Net Share Settlement is made;
A = the Market Price as of the Exercise Date; and
B = the Exercise Price.
1.4 Issuance of Certificate(s); Authorization. Upon surrender of this Warrant and full compliance with each of the other requirements in Section 1.2, in the case of a Cash Exercise, and Section 1.3, in the case of an Exercise by Net Share Settlement, the Company shall, promptly, and in any event, within two (2) Trading Days, either (i) issue and cause to be delivered a certificate or certificates to the Holder, or upon the written request of the Holder, in and to such name or names as the Holder may designate, a certificate or certificates for the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the Cash Exercise or the Exercise by Net Share Settlement, as the case may be, or (ii) instruct its transfer agent to register in book entry form and, if such transfer agent is participating in The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, credit such aggregate number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the Cash Exercise or the Exercise by Net Share Settlement, as the case may be, to the Holder’s (or, upon the written request of the Holder, to its designee’s or designees’) balance account(s) with DTC through its Deposit / Withdrawal At Custodian System. Such certificate or certificates (or book entry shares) shall not be deemed to have been issued, and any Person so designated to be named therein shall not be deemed to have become or have any rights of a holder of record of such Warrant Shares, until all requirements set forth in Section 1.2, in the case of a Cash Exercise, and Section 1.3, in the case of an Exercise by Net Share Settlement, have been fully met by the Holder. The certificate(s) (or book entry shares) representing the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant shall bear the restrictive legend substantially in the form set forth on Exhibit C hereto; provided that, upon the reasonable request of the Holder, at any time, and from time to time, when such legend is no longer required under the Securities Act or applicable state laws, the Company shall promptly remove such legend from any certificate representing the Warrant Shares (or issue one
7
or more new certificates representing such Warrant Shares, which certificate(s) shall not contain a legend). The Company hereby represents and warrants that any shares of Common Stock issued upon the exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the provisions of Sections 1.2 and/or 1.3 will be duly and validly authorized and issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges (other than taxes, liens or charges created by the Holder or taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously therewith). The Company agrees that the Warrant Shares so issued will be deemed to have been issued to the Holder (and the Holder shall be the beneficial owner thereof) as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant and payment of the Exercise Price are delivered to the Company in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, notwithstanding that the stock transfer books of the Company may then be closed or certificates representing such Warrant Shares may not be actually delivered on such date.
1.5 Full or Partial Exercise. This Warrant shall be exercisable, at the election of the Holder, either in full or in part and, in the event that this Warrant is exercised in respect of fewer than all of the Warrant Shares issuable on such exercise at any time prior to the Expiration Date, the Company shall promptly issue a new certificate evidencing the remaining Warrant or Warrants, in a form substantially identical hereto, in the name of the Holder, and delivered to the Holder or to another Person that the Holder has designated for delivery as soon as practicable, and in any event not exceeding three (3) Business Days from such exercise.
1.6 Restrictions on Exercise. The Holder will not be permitted to exercise the right to purchase Warrant Shares if and to the extent, as a result of such exercise, either (i) such Holder’s, together with such Holder’s Affiliates’, aggregate voting power on any matter that could be voted on by holders of the Common Stock would exceed 19.9% of the Maximum Voting Power or (ii) such Holder, together with such Holder’s Affiliates, would beneficially own more than 19.9% of the then outstanding Common Stock; provided, however, that such exercise restriction shall not apply in connection with and subject to completion of (A) a Public Sale of the Warrant Shares to be issued upon such exercise, (B) a bona fide third party tender offer for the Common Stock issuable thereupon, or (C) a Change of Control if, in the case of each of clauses (A), (B) and (C), such Holder and its Affiliates will not beneficially own in excess of 19.9% of the then outstanding Common Stock following the consummation of such event. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates shall include the number of Warrant Shares to be issued with respect to which a Notice of Exercise by Net Share Settlement or Purchase Form has been given and the shares of Common Stock to be issued in connection with the exercise of any other outstanding warrants beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its Affiliates. Upon the written request of the Holder, the Company shall within two (2) Trading Days confirm in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. The restrictions contained in this paragraph shall automatically terminate upon the consummation of a Change of Control with respect to the surviving Person (if other than the Company).
In no event shall this Warrant be exercised for a number of Warrant Shares that would require shareholder approval pursuant to Nasdaq Rule 5635 (or successor rule) unless such shareholder approval is obtained. The Company covenants that it will not take any action that would result in an adjustment to the Exercise Price or number of Warrant Shares that would require such shareholder approval without first obtaining shareholder approval.
8
1.7 Automatic Cashless Exercise upon Expiration. In the event that, upon the Expiration Date, the Market Price is greater than the Exercise Price in effect on such date, then this Warrant shall automatically be deemed on and as of the Expiration Date to be exercised pursuant to Section 1.3 above as to all Warrant Shares for which it shall not previously have been exercised (the “Automatic Exercise”), and the Company shall take such other actions as required pursuant to Section 1.4 in connection with such Automatic Exercise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Automatic Exercise shall be subject to the provisions and limitations set forth in Section 1.6.
2. Payment of Taxes. Issuance of certificates for 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 certificate, all of which taxes (other than any such taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously therewith) and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates 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 certificates for Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by a properly executed assignment form in the form attached as Exhibit D hereto, and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.
3. Mutilated, Missing or Lost Warrant. In the event that this Warrant shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue and countersign, in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of the mutilated Warrant, or in lieu of and substitution for its loss, theft or destruction, a new Warrant with identical terms, representing an equivalent number of Warrant Shares and dated the same date as this Warrant that was mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, but only upon receipt of evidence and indemnity or other security reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft or destruction of this Warrant; provided, however, that in the event a new Warrant is issued pursuant to this Section 3 in a name other than the name of the Holder on the date the Warrant was mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Holder shall present to the Company, in addition to the requirements of this Section 3, a properly executed assignment form in the form attached as Exhibit D hereto, and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.
4. Reservation of Warrant Shares.
4.1 At all times prior to the Expiration Date, the Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon the exercise of this Warrant, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the aggregate Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary to assure that all such shares of Common Stock may be so issued without violating the Company’s governing documents, any agreements to which the Company is a party on the date hereof, any requirements of any national securities exchange upon which shares of Common Stock may be listed or any applicable laws. The Company shall not take any action which would cause the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to be less than the number of such shares required to be reserved hereunder for issuance upon exercise of the Warrants.
9
4.2 The Company covenants that it will take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that all Warrant Shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant will, upon issuance in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, be fully paid and non-assessable, and free from any and all (i) security interests created by or imposed upon the Company and (ii) taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof. If at any time prior to the Expiration Date the number and kind of authorized but unissued shares of the Company’s Common Stock shall not be sufficient to permit exercise in full of this Warrant, the Company will as promptly as reasonably practicable take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be reasonably necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will not increase the stated or par value per share, if any, of the Common Stock above the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such increase in stated or par value.
4.3 The Company represents and warrants to the Holders that the issuance of this Warrant and the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise thereof in accordance with the terms hereof will not constitute a breach of, or a default under, any other material agreements to which the Company is a party on the date hereof and that this Warrant constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company.
5. Fractional Shares. No fractional Warrant Shares, or scrip for any such fractional Warrant Shares, shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. If any fraction of a share of Common Stock would, except for the provisions of this Section 5, be issuable on the exercise of any Warrant, the Holder shall be entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the Market Price of the Common Stock less the Exercise Price for such fractional Warrant Share.
6. Anti-dilution Adjustments and Other Rights. The Exercise Price and number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:
6.1 Adjustment to Exercise Price. Upon any adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable pursuant to Sections 6.2, 6.3, 6.4 and 6.5, the Exercise Price shall immediately be adjusted to equal the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the aggregate Exercise Price of the maximum number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant was exercisable immediately prior to such adjustment by (ii) the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after such adjustment (without giving effect to the limitations in Section 1.6); provided, however, that the Exercise Price with respect to the new number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable resulting from any such adjustment shall not be less than the par value per share of Common Stock at such time (which, for the avoidance of doubt, is $0.001 as of the Issue Date).
6.2 Changes to Common Stock. If the Company (i) declares, orders, pays or makes a dividend or a distribution on its Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of the Warrants), (ii) splits, subdivides or reclassifies its outstanding Common Stock into a larger number of shares of Common Stock, (iii) combines or reclassifies its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock or (iv) increases or decreases the number of Common Stock outstanding by reclassification of its shares of Common Stock, then
10
in each case, the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable will be adjusted based on the following formula:
| NS’ = NS0 x OS’ |
|---|
| OS0 |
where:
| NS’ | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable in effect immediately after such<br>event; |
|---|---|---|
| NS0 | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is<br>exercisable in effect immediately prior to such event; |
| --- | --- | --- |
| OS’ | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event; and |
| --- | --- | --- |
| OS0 | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately<br>prior to such event. |
| --- | --- | --- |
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day following the date fixed for such determination. The Company will not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in treasury by the Company. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this Section 6.2 is declared but not so paid or made, the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall again be adjusted to be the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant would be exercisable if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.
6.3 Options. If the Company issues to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock any Options entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock, subject to the last paragraph of this Section 6.3, at a price per share of Common Stock less than the Market Price per share of Common Stock on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance, the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable will be adjusted based on the following formula:
| NS’ = NS0 x OS0+X |
|---|
| OS0+Y |
where:
| NS’ | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable in effect immediately after such<br>event; |
|---|---|---|
| NS0 | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is<br>exercisable in effect immediately prior to such event; |
| --- | --- | --- |
| OS0 | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately<br>prior to such event; |
| --- | --- | --- |
11
| X | = | the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such Options; and |
|---|---|---|
| Y | = | the number of shares of Common Stock equal to (i)(A) the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable<br>pursuant to such Options multiplied by (B) the price per share of Common Stock payable to exercise such Options, divided by<br>(ii) the Market Price per share of Common Stock as of the record date. |
| --- | --- | --- |
Such adjustment shall be successively made whenever any such Options are issued and shall become effective immediately after 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day following the date fixed for such determination. The Company shall not issue any such Options in respect of shares of Common Stock held in treasury by the Company. To the extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such Options, the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be readjusted to be the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant would be exercisable had the adjustments made upon the issuance of such Options been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered. If such Options are not so issued, the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall again be adjusted to be the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant would be exercisable if such date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such Options had not been fixed. No adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section 6.3 which shall have the effect of decreasing the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.
In determining whether any Options entitle the Holder to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at less than such Market Price, and in determining the aggregate price payable to exercise such Options, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such Options and any amount payable on exercise thereof, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.
In the event the Company adopts or implements a shareholder rights agreement (a “Shareholder Rights Plan”) pursuant to which rights (“Rights”) are distributed to the holders of Common Stock of the Company and such Shareholder Rights Plan provides that each Warrant Share issued upon exercise of this Warrant at any time prior to the distribution of separate certificates representing such Rights will be entitled to receive such Rights, then there shall not be any adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant or Exercise Price at any time prior to the distribution of separate certificates representing such Rights. If, however, prior to any exercise, the Rights have separated from the Common Stock, the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be adjusted at the time of separation as described in this Section 6.3.
6.4 Other Distributions. If the Company fixes a record date for the making of any distribution of shares of its Common Stock, other securities, evidences of indebtedness or other assets or property of the Company to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, excluding:
| (i) | dividends or distributions and Options referred to in Sections 6.2 or 6.3; and |
|---|
12
| (ii) | dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash referred to in Section 6.5; |
|---|
then the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable will be adjusted based on the following formula:
| NS’ = NS0 x SP0 |
|---|
| SP0 - FMV |
where:
| NS’ | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable in effect immediately after such<br>distribution; |
|---|---|---|
| NS0 | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is<br>exercisable in effect immediately prior to such distribution; |
| --- | --- | --- |
| SP0 | = | the Market Price per share of Common Stock on the last<br>Trading Day immediately preceding the first date on which the Common Stock trades regular way without the right to receive such distribution;<br>and |
| --- | --- | --- |
| FMV | = | a number equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the aggregate fair market value (as determined<br>in good faith by the Board) of all the distributed shares of capital stock, other securities, evidences of indebtedness, assets or property<br>by (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the record date for such distribution. |
| --- | --- | --- |
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately prior to 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day following the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed with respect to a subsequent event.
With respect to an adjustment pursuant to this Section 6.4 where there has been a payment of a dividend or other distribution on the Common Stock of shares of capital stock of any class or series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to a subsidiary or other business unit (a “Spin-Off”), the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable in effect immediately before 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive the distribution will be increased based on the following formula:
| NS’ = NS0 x FMV0<br>+ MP0 |
|---|
| MP0 |
where:
| NS’ | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable in effect immediately after such<br>distribution; |
|---|
13
| NS0 | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is<br>exercisable in effect immediately prior to such distribution; |
|---|---|---|
| FMV0 | = | the average Market Price per share of the capital stock<br>or similar equity interest distributed to holders of Common Stock over the first ten (10) consecutive Trading Days after the effective<br>date of the Spin-Off; and |
| --- | --- | --- |
| MP0 | = | the average Market Price per share of Common Stock over<br>the first ten (10) consecutive Trading Days after the effective date of the Spin-Off. |
| --- | --- | --- |
Such adjustment shall occur on the tenth consecutive Trading Day from, and including, the effective date of the Spin-Off. No adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section 6.4 which shall have the effect of decreasing the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.
6.5 Cash Dividend. If the Company makes any cash dividend or distribution (excluding any cash distributions in connection with the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up) during any quarterly fiscal period to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock, the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable will be adjusted based on the following formula:
| NS’ = NS0 x SP0 |
|---|
| SP0<br>- C |
where:
| NS’ | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable in effect immediately after the<br>record date for such distribution; |
|---|---|---|
| NS0 | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is<br>exercisable in effect immediately prior to the record date for such distribution; |
| --- | --- | --- |
| SP0 | = | the Market Price per share of the Common Stock on the last<br>Trading Day immediately preceding the first date on which the Common Stock trades regular way without the right to receive such distribution;<br>and |
| --- | --- | --- |
| C | = | the amount in cash per share of Common Stock the Company distributes to holders of Common Stock. |
| --- | --- | --- |
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date for such determination. No adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section 6.5 which shall have the effect of decreasing the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.
6.6 Adjustment Upon Issuance of Common Stock. Except in the case of (i) Common Stock issued by the Company in connection with any Excluded Securities and (ii) an event described in either Section 6.2 or Section 6.3, if the Company shall, at any time or from time to time after the Issue Date, issue or sell any shares of Common Stock or is deemed to have issued or sold any shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 6.6.3, in each case, without consideration
14
or for consideration or having a combined purchase and conversion, exchange or exercise price of less than $1.25 per share of Common Stock (the “Minimum Price”), the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable will be adjusted based on the following formula:
| NS’ = NS0 x DOS’ |
|---|
| DOS0<br>+ Z |
where:
| NS’ | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable in effect immediately after such<br>issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale); |
|---|---|---|
| NS0 | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is<br>exercisable in effect immediately prior to such issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale); |
| --- | --- | --- |
| DOS’ | = | the Common Stock Deemed Outstanding as of immediately after such issuance or sale (or deemed issuance<br>or sale); |
| --- | --- | --- |
| DOS0 | = | the Common Stock Deemed Outstanding as of immediately prior<br>to such issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale); and |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Z | = | the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate amount of consideration, if any,<br>received by the Company upon such issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale) would purchase at the Minimum Price. |
| --- | --- | --- |
For the purposes of any adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a Warrant pursuant to this Section 6, the following provisions shall be applicable:
6.6.1 In the case of the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities for cash, the amount of the consideration received by the Company shall be deemed to be the amount of the gross cash proceeds received by the Company for such securities before deducting from such amount any discounts or commissions allowed, paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale of such Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities.
6.6.2 In the case of the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities (other than upon the conversion of stock or other securities of the Company) for consideration in whole or in part other than cash, including securities acquired in exchange for such shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities (other than securities by their terms so exchangeable), the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair market value thereof.
6.6.3 In the case of the issuance of Convertible Securities or Options (in each case, whether or not at the time so convertible, exchangeable or exercisable): (i) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion, exchange or exercise of such Convertible Securities or Options shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such Convertible Securities or Options are issued and for consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in this Section 6.6), if any, received by the Company upon the
15
issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities or Options plus the minimum purchase price provided in such Convertible Securities or Options for shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion, exchange or exercise by such Convertible Securities or Options; and (ii) if the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a Warrant shall have been adjusted upon the issuance or sale of any Convertible Securities or Options, no further adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a Warrant shall be made for the actual issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities or Options.
6.7 No Adjustment if Participating. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6, no adjustment shall be made thereunder, nor shall an adjustment be made to the ability of a Holder to exercise, for any distribution described therein if the Holder will otherwise participate in the distribution with respect to its Warrant Shares without exercise of this Warrant (without giving effect to any separate exercise of preemptive rights).
6.8 No Adjustment. No adjustment to the Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable need be made:
6.8.1 upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on securities of the Company and the investment of additional optional amounts in shares of Common Stock under any plan;
6.8.2 upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or Options to purchase shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future employee, director or consultant benefit plan or program of or assumed by the Company or any of its subsidiaries;
6.8.3 upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any Option, or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security not described in Section 6.3 and outstanding as of the Issue Date or issued in exchange for (or as a replacement of) any such security outstanding as of the Issue Date; or
6.8.4 for a change in the par value of the Common Stock.
6.9 Calculations. All adjustments made to the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 6 shall be calculated to the nearest one-ten thousandth of a cent ($0.000001), and all adjustments made to the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of each Warrant pursuant to this Section 6 shall be calculated to the nearest one-ten thousandth of a Warrant Share (0.0001). Except as described in this Section 6, the Company will not adjust the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable.
No adjustments of the Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant that would otherwise be required shall be made unless and until such adjustment either by itself or with other adjustments not previously made increases or decreases by at least 0.1% the Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to the making of such adjustment. Any adjustment representing a change of less than such minimum amount shall be carried forward and made as soon as such
16
adjustment, together with other adjustments required by this Section 6 and not previously made, would result in such minimum adjustment.
6.10 Adjustment Event. In any case in which this Section 6 provides that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after (i) a record date or record date for an event, (ii) the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive a dividend or distribution pursuant to this Section 6 or (iii) a date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive Options pursuant to this Section 6 (each, a “Determination Date”), the Company may elect to defer until the occurrence of the applicable Adjustment Event (x) issuing to the Holder of any Warrant exercised after such Determination Date and before the occurrence of such Adjustment Event, the additional shares of Common Stock or other securities issuable upon such exercise by reason of the adjustment required by such Adjustment Event over and above the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion before giving effect to such adjustment and (y) paying to such Holder any amount in cash in lieu of any fraction pursuant to Section 5. For purposes of this Section 6, the term “Adjustment Event” shall mean:
| (A) | in any case referred to in clause (i) hereof, the occurrence of such event; |
|---|---|
| (B) | in any case referred to in clause (ii) hereof, the date any such dividend or distribution is paid<br>or made; and |
| --- | --- |
| (C) | in any case referred to in clause (iii) hereof, the earlier of the date of expiration or the date<br>of full exercise of such Options. |
| --- | --- |
6.11 Number of Shares Outstanding. For purposes of this Section 6, the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company will not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company.
6.12 Successive Adjustments. Successive adjustments in the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be made, without duplication, whenever any event specified in this Section 6 shall occur.
6.13 Adjustment for Unspecified Actions. If the Company takes any action affecting the Common Stock, other than any action described in this Section 6, which in the opinion of the Board would materially adversely affect the exercise rights of the Holder, then the Exercise Price for this Warrant and/or the number of Warrant Shares received upon exercise of this Warrant may be adjusted, to the extent permitted by law, in such manner, if any, and at such time as the Board may determine in good faith to be equitable in the circumstances; provided, however, that in no event shall any adjustment have the effect of increasing the Exercise Price or decreasing the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant may be exercised.
7. Treatment of Warrant Upon a Change of Control. In the event of a Change of Control, whether such Change of Control occurs before or after the Eligible Exercise Date, in which the consideration to be received by all of the Company’s stockholders consists solely of cash, solely of Marketable Securities or a combination of cash and Marketable Securities (a
17
“Cash/Public Acquisition”), which for the avoidance of doubt shall not include a Change of Control in which the consideration to be received by any of the Company’s stockholders consists of consideration other than cash or Marketable Securities, including an equity rollover, the Holder may elect, by giving notice to the Company within fifteen (15) calendar days prior to such Cash/Public Acquisition, to exchange this Warrant for the kind and amount of cash or Marketable Securities payable at the closing of such Cash/Public Acquisition (the “Sale Consideration”) which the Holder would have received with respect to the Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant if the Holder had exercised this Warrant on a cashless basis immediately prior to the occurrence of such Cash/Public Acquisition, and the Company had issued to such Holder a number of Warrant Shares computed using the following formula:
| X = Y (A - B) |
|---|
| A |
where:
X = the number of Warrant Shares deemed to have been issued to the Holder;
Y = the number of Warrant Shares purchasable under this Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised, the portion of the Warrant being cancelled;
A = the amount of Sale Consideration payable per share of Common Stock in the Change of Control, with (i) such amount expressed in U.S. dollars and, if applicable, rounded to the nearest whole cent, and (ii) any non-cash portion of such Sale Consideration valued at the value attributed thereto in the Change of Control; and
B = the lesser of (i) the Exercise Price and (ii) the Black Scholes Adjusted Exercise Price.
Upon the closing of any Change of Control or any other merger, business combination or consolidation involving the Company that does not amount to a Change of Control (in each case, other than a Cash/Public Acquisition), whether such transaction occurs before or after the Eligible Exercise Date, the acquiring, surviving or successor entity shall assume the obligations of this Warrant, and this Warrant shall thereafter be exercisable for the same securities and/or other property as would have been paid for the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the unexercised portion of this Warrant as if such Warrant Shares were outstanding on and as of the closing of such Change of Control or such other transaction, subject to further adjustment from time to time in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant.
8. Notices.
8.1 Notices Generally. Except as otherwise expressly provided hereunder, all notices referred to herein shall be in writing and shall be delivered by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid, or by reputable overnight courier service, charges prepaid, and shall be deemed to have been given when so mailed or sent (i) to the Company, at its principal executive offices and (ii) to the Holder, at the Holder’s address as it appears in the stock records of the Company (unless otherwise indicated by the Holder in writing), and to such other Persons identified in Exhibit E hereto (as may be revised by the Holder in writing).
18
8.2 Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares and other property, if any, issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company shall deliver to the Holder a certificate of its Chief Financial Officer setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment and the method by which such adjustment was calculated and specifying the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants after giving effect to such adjustment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Holder objects to the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (after giving effect to the proposed adjustment) set forth in the certificate provided by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, the Company shall promptly obtain a certificate of an Independent Financial Expert appointed for such purpose setting forth the same information and detail as required in the immediately preceding sentence, and such certificate shall be used for the basis to effect the applicable adjustment to the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. The costs and expenses of such Independent Financial Expert shall be paid by the Holder, unless the calculations of the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (after giving effect to the proposed adjustment) set forth in the certificate of the Independent Financial Expert differ by 3% or more from the calculations set forth in the certificate provided by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, in which case such costs and expenses shall be paid by the Company.
8.3 Notice of Certain Transactions. In the event the Company shall propose to (i) distribute any dividend or other distribution to all holders of its Common Stock or options, warrants or other rights to receive such dividend or distribution, (ii) offer to all holders of its Common Stock Options to subscribe for or to purchase any Convertible Securities or shares of stock of any class or any other securities, rights or options, (iii) effect any capital reorganization, reclassification, consolidation or merger, (iv) effect the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company or (v) make a tender offer or exchange offer with respect to the Common Stock, the Company shall promptly send to the Holder a notice of such proposed action or offer in accordance with Section 8.1, which shall specify the record date for the purposes of such dividend, distribution or rights, or the date such issuance or event is to take place and the date of participation therein by the holders of Common Stock, if any such date is to be fixed, and shall briefly indicate the effect, if any, of such action on the Common Stock and on the number and kind of any other shares of stock and other property of the Company, if any, and the number of shares of Common Stock and other property, if any, issuable upon exercise of each Warrant and the Exercise Price after giving effect to any such adjustment pursuant to Section 6 which will be required as a result of such action. Such notice shall be given as promptly as possible and, in any case, not less than fourteen (14) days prior to the date of the taking of such action, or participation therein, by the holders of Common Stock.
9. Certain Tax Covenants*.*
9.1 Tax Treatment. In accordance with Section 2.01(d) of the Financing Agreement, the parties hereto agree that (i) the Warrants issued hereunder, the Warrants issued under that certain “Common Stock Purchase Warrant” dated as of [·] and the Term Loan A and the Term Loan B issued under the Financing Agreement shall be treated as an “investment unit” within the meaning of Section 1273(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, (ii) the issue price of the investment unit will
19
be allocated between the Term Loan A, the Term Loan B and such Warrants based on their relative fair market values on the Effective Date (as defined in the Financing Agreement) for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as determined collectively by the Company and the Required Lenders (as defined in the Financing Agreement) acting in good faith and (iii) no party hereto shall take a position contrary to the foregoing on any tax return unless required by an applicable change in law after the Effective Date or the good faith resolution of a tax audit or other tax proceeding.
9.2 Withholding. Each Holder shall at all times be a
“United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code and agrees to deliver to the Company a duly completed and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor form) with respect to such Holder (i) on or before the Issue Date, (ii) upon reasonable request by the Company and (iii) promptly upon learning that any such tax form previously provided by a Holder has become obsolete. The Company (or the applicable withholding agent) shall be entitled to withhold from any actual or deemed distributions with respect to Warrants or any payment in redemption of Warrants, in each case as determined for applicable tax purposes, any applicable withholding taxes and any such withheld amounts shall be treated as paid to the applicable payee for all purposes of this Warrant.
10. Registration Rights.
10.1 Registration Statement. The Company shall file, within 60 calendar days of the Eligible Exercise Date, a registration statement for a shelf registration on Form S-3 (the “Form S-3 Shelf”), or if the Company is ineligible to use a Form S-3 Shelf, a registration statement for a shelf registration on Form S-1 (the “Form S-1 Shelf” and, together with the Form S-3 Shelf (and any Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement (as defined below)), each, a “Shelf” or “Registration Statement”), in each case, covering the resale of all the Warrant Shares (determined as of two (2) Business Days prior to such filing) on a delayed or continuous basis; provided that the Holder shall have delivered to the Company all reasonably requested information regarding the Holder and its beneficial ownership of Warrant Shares not later than five (5) Business Days prior to the filing of the Registration Statement. The Shelf shall provide for the resale of the Warrant Shares pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by, the Holder.
10.2 Effectiveness of Registration Statement. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Shelf to become effective as soon as practicable after such filing, but no later than the earlier of (i) 45 calendar days after the filing thereof (or, in the event the Commission reviews and has written comments to the Registration Statement, the 90th calendar day following the filing thereof), (ii) the fifth Business Day after the date the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review, or (iii) if the day determined under clause (i) or clause (ii) falls on a Saturday, Sunday or other day that the Commission is closed for business, the next Business Day immediately following the day determined under clause (i) or clause (ii) on which the Commission is open for business (the date determined under clause (i), (ii) or (iii), the “EffectivenessDeadline”). The Company shall maintain a Shelf in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and shall prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and supplements as may be reasonably necessary to keep such Shelf continuously effective, available for use and in
20
compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the Warrant Shares held by a Holder until the earlier of (A) such time as all Warrant Shares issuable to such Holder have been sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of pursuant to a Registration Statement or Rule 144, or (B) such time as all remaining Warrant Shares held by, or issuable to, such Holder may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without regard to any volume or manner of sale requirement thereunder assuming all Warrants held by the Holder with respect to such Warrant Shares were or will be exercised in accordance with Section 1.3 and all restrictive legends on Warrants and/or Warrant Shares have been removed.
10.3 Conversion of Registration Statement. In the event the Company files a Form S-1 Shelf, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to convert the Form S-1 Shelf (and any Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement) to a Form S-3 Shelf as soon as reasonably practicable after the Company is eligible to use Form S-3.
10.4 Continued Effectiveness. If any Shelf ceases to be effective under the Securities Act for any reason at any time during the period described in Section 10.2 and while there are any Warrants outstanding, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as promptly as is reasonably practicable cause such Shelf to again become effective under the Securities Act (including using its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf), and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to, as promptly as is reasonably practicable, amend such Shelf in a manner reasonably expected to result in the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf or file an additional registration statement as a Shelf (a “Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement”) registering the resale of all Warrant Shares from time to time, and pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and reasonably requested by, any Holder whose Warrant Shares are included therein. Any such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be on Form S-3 to the extent that the Company is eligible to use such form. Otherwise, such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be on another appropriate form.
If a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement is filed, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement to become effective under the Securities Act as promptly as is reasonably practicable after the filing thereof and (ii) keep such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective and available for use for the remainder of the period set forth in Section 10.2.
10.5 Notice of Stop Order. The Company shall provide to the Holder prompt written notice of any time that (i) the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) has issued a stop order with respect to the Registration Statement, (ii) the Commission otherwise has suspended or withdrawn the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, either temporarily or permanently, or (iii) the Company has suspended or withdrawn the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, either temporarily or permanently. In the event of such notice, the Company shall, at the election of the Holder, which shall be given within five (5) days of receipt of such notice, either (y) rescind any previously submitted (and outstanding) Notice of Exercise and the Company shall return all consideration paid by the Holder for the applicable Warrant Shares upon such rescission or (z) treat the attempted exercise as a cashless exercise as described in Section 1.3 and refund the cash portion of the Exercise Price to the Holder.
21
10.6 Expenses. In connection with any registration pursuant to this Section 10, the Company shall pay any applicable filing fee with respect to the Registration Statement and any Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement, and pay its own direct costs, including the professional fees of its own counsel and independent registered accountants. The Holder shall bear the cost of its own counsel, other advisors and any broker or other intermediary involved in any resale, including all applicable underwriting discounts and commissions, brokers’ commissions and stock transfer taxes, if any, on the Warrant Shares sold by the Holder in any such resale.
10.7 Updating Registration Statement. Upon receipt of written notice from the Company that a Registration Statement or prospectus contains a Misstatement, the Holder shall forthwith discontinue disposition of securities pursuant to such Registration Statement or prospectus until it has received copies of a supplemented or amended prospectus correcting the Misstatement (and the Company covenants to prepare and file such supplement or amendment as soon as reasonably practicable after giving such notice), or until it is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the prospectus may be resumed.
10.8 Adverse Disclosure. If the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement in respect of any registration at any time would require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure or would require the inclusion in such Registration Statement of financial statements that are unavailable to the Company, the Company may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holder, delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, such Registration Statement for the shortest period of time, but in no event more than three times or an aggregate of 120 days in any 12-month period, determined in good faith by the Board to be necessary for such purpose. In the event the Company exercises its rights under the preceding sentence, the Holder agrees to suspend, immediately upon its receipt of the notice referred to above, its use of the prospectus relating to such registration in connection with any sale of, or offer to sell, securities pursuant to such Registration Statement or prospectus. The Company shall immediately notify the Holder of the expiration of any period during which it exercised its rights under this Section 10.
10.9 Indemnification. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Holder, its officers, managers, directors, trustees, equityholders, beneficiaries, Affiliates, agents and representatives and each Person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) (or actions in respect thereto) caused by, resulting from, arising out of or based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or similar document incident to any registration, qualification, compliance or sale effected pursuant to this Section 10 or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (ii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act or any other similar federal or state securities laws, and will reimburse, as incurred, the Holder, its officers, managers, directors, trustees, equityholders, beneficiaries, Affiliates, agents and representatives and each Person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is caused by or arises out of or
22
is based on any untrue statement or omission made in reliance and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the Holder expressly for use therein.
10.10 Restrictive Legends. The Company shall, upon the Holder’s request, deliver all the necessary documentation to cause the Company’s transfer agent to remove any restrictive legend on the Warrants or Warrant Shares, as promptly as reasonably practicable and no later than two (2) Trading Days after such request, when the Warrants or Warrant Shares are sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or a Registration Statement, in each case in accordance with customary practice and in each case upon receipt by the Company of customary certifications from the Holder and any broker or other intermediary involved in the sale as to Holder’s and such broker’s or intermediary’s compliance with Rule 144 or such Registration Statement. In connection therewith, if required by the Company’s transfer agent, the Company will, at its sole cost and expense, promptly cause an opinion of counsel in customary form to be delivered to and maintained with its transfer agent, together with any other authorizations, certificates and directions required by the transfer agent that authorize and direct the transfer agent to deliver such Warrants or Warrant Shares without any such legend. If restrictive legends are no longer required for the Warrants or Warrant Shares pursuant to the foregoing, the Company shall, reasonably promptly following any request therefor from the Holder accompanied by such customary and reasonably acceptable representations and other documentation referred to above establishing that restrictive legends are no longer required, deliver to the transfer agent irrevocable instructions that the transfer agent shall make a new entry for the securities free of any restrictive legend. The Holder, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges and agrees that the removal of any restrictive legend from any securities as set forth herein is predicated upon the Company’s reliance that the Holder will sell such securities pursuant either to the registration requirements of the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom, and that if such securities are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement, they will be sold when such Registration Statement is effective and available for resales of such securities, in compliance with the plan of distribution set forth therein. The Company and its counsel and transfer agent shall be entitled to rely on the foregoing agreement and/or such certificate of the Holder and any broker or other intermediary involved in such sale in issuing instruction letters and opinions.
11. No Rights as Stockholder until Exercise. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any of the rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof, including, without limitation, the right to receive dividends or other distributions, exercise any rights to vote or to consent or to receive notice as stockholders in respect of the meetings of stockholders or the election of directors of the Company or any other matter. No provision hereof and no mere enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the Exercise Price hereunder or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.
12. Successors and Assigns. Subject to the transfer conditions referred to in the legend on the Warrant, the Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, by the Holder, upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company; provided, however, that the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment by the Holder of a sum sufficient to reimburse the Company for any transfer tax incidental thereto; provided, further, that this Warrant may only be transferred to a Person that is a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code. Upon such compliance, surrender and delivery, the Company shall execute and deliver a
23
new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees and in the denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant, if any, not so assigned and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. The terms and provisions of this Warrant shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the Company and the Holder and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
13. Governing Law. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to conflict of law principles.
14. Severability. In the event that one or more of the provisions of this Warrant shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Warrant, but this Warrant shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. Furthermore, in lieu of any such invalid or unenforceable term or provision, the parties hereto intend that there shall be added as a part of this Agreement a provision as similar in terms to such invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be valid and enforceable.
15. Change or Waiver. Any term of this Warrant may be changed or waived only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which enforcement is sought.
16. Headings. The headings in this Warrant are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning of any provision of this Warrant.
17. Counterparts. This Warrant may be executed in any number of original or facsimile counterparts and each of such counterparts shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.
18. Remedies. The remedies provided in this Warrant shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Warrant, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the right of the parties to pursue actual damages for any failure by the other party to comply with the terms of this Warrant. The parties acknowledge that a breach or threatened breach by it of its obligations hereunder would give rise to irreparable harm to the other party, and monetary damages for any such breach would not be an adequate remedy. The parties therefore agree that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the other party shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to equitable relief, including an injunction restraining any breach, specific performance, and any other relief that may be available from a court of competent jurisdiction, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required. In the event of any dispute between the parties concerning the terms and provisions of this Warrant, the party prevailing in such dispute shall be entitled to collect from the other party all costs incurred in such dispute, including reasonable attorneys’ fees.
19. No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company shall not, on or after the date hereof, enter into any agreement with respect to its securities which conflicts with the rights granted to the Holder hereunder. The Company represents and warrants to the Holder that the rights granted hereunder do not in any way conflict with the rights granted to holders of the Company’s securities under any other agreements.

Common Stock Purchase Warrant
Accuray Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), for value received, hereby certifies that [●] (the “Holder”), subject to the terms and conditions hereof (including, without limitation, Section 1.6), shall be entitled to purchase from the Company, at any time and from time to time after the Issue Date and on or prior to the close of business on [●] (the “Expiration Date”), [●] fully paid and nonassessable shares (individually, a “Warrant Share” and collectively, the “Warrant Shares”) of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”), at a price per share equal to the Exercise Price. The number of Warrant Shares is subject to adjustment as provided herein, and all references to “Common Stock” herein shall be deemed to include any such adjustment or series of adjustments.
This warrant (this “Warrant” and, together with all such Warrants issued on the Issue Date, the “Warrants”) is being issued by the Company to the Holder in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Financing Agreement (as defined below). The following terms used herein shall have the meanings set forth below when used in this Warrant:
“Adjustment Event” has the meaning set forth in Section 6.8.
“Adverse Disclosure” means any public disclosure of material non-public information, which disclosure, in the good faith determination of the Board, after consultation with counsel to the Company, (i) would be required to be made in any Registration Statement or prospectus in order for the applicable Registration Statement or prospectus not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein (in the case of any prospectus and any preliminary prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, (ii) would not be required to be made at such time if the Registration Statement were not being filed, and (iii) the Company has a bona fide business purpose for not making public.

The term “control” (including, with correlative meanings, the terms “controlling”, “controlled by” and “under common control with”), when used with respect to a specified Person, means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such specified Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by
contract, or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company, its Subsidiaries and its other Affiliates shall not be considered Affiliates of the Holder or any of its Affiliates (other than the Company, its Subsidiaries and its other Affiliates).

Any exercise of this Warrant may be conditioned upon the occurrence of (a) a Public Sale of the Warrant Shares or (b) any event described in Section 8.3(iii). Such conditional exercise shall be deemed revoked if such event or transaction does not occur on the date, or within the dates, specified in the applicable notice provided by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to Section 8 (if such a notice was provided).
1.2 Exercise for Cash. This Warrant may be exercised (a “Cash Exercise”) by delivering this Warrant to the Company at its principal executive office, or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, accompanied by (i) the “Purchase Form” attached as Exhibit A hereto duly completed and executed on behalf of the Holder and (ii) a payment to the Company in the amount equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of whole Warrant Shares in respect of which this Warrant is then exercised, plus all taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 2. This Warrant may not be exercised for a fraction of a Warrant Share.
1.3 Exercise by Net Share Settlement. This Warrant may be exercised, in whole or in part (an “Exercise by Net Share Settlement”), into the number of Warrant Shares determined in accordance with this Section 1.3 by delivering this Warrant to the Company at its principal executive office, or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, accompanied by (i) the “Notice of Exercise by Net Share Settlement” attached hereto as Exhibit B duly completed and executed on behalf of the Holder and (ii) a payment to the Company for any taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 2. In the event of an Exercise by Net Share Settlement, the Company shall issue to the Holder a number of Warrant Shares (subject to Section 5) computed using the following formula:
X = Y (A - B)

where:
X = the net number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder pursuant to the Exercise by Net Share Settlement;
Y = the gross number of Warrant Shares in respect of which the Exercise by Net Share Settlement is made;
A = the Market Price as of the Exercise Date; and
5
B = the Exercise Price.
1.4 Issuance of Certificate(s); Authorization. Upon surrender of this Warrant and full compliance with each of the other requirements in Section 1.2, in the case of a Cash Exercise, and Section 1.3, in the case of an Exercise by Net Share Settlement, the Company shall, promptly, and in any event, within two (2) Trading Days, either (i) issue and cause to be delivered a certificate or certificates to the Holder, or upon the written request of the Holder, in and to such name or names as the Holder may designate, a certificate or certificates for the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the Cash Exercise or the Exercise by Net Share Settlement, as the case may be, or (ii) instruct its transfer agent to register in book entry form and, if such transfer agent is participating in The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, credit such aggregate number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the Cash Exercise or the Exercise by Net Share Settlement, as the case may be, to the Holder’s (or, upon the written request of the Holder, to its designee’s or designees’) balance account(s) with DTC through its Deposit / Withdrawal At Custodian System. Such certificate or certificates (or book entry shares) shall not be deemed to have been issued, and any Person so designated to be named therein shall not be deemed to have become or have any rights of a holder of record of such Warrant Shares, until all requirements set forth in Section 1.2, in the case of a Cash Exercise, and Section 1.3, in the case of an Exercise by Net Share Settlement, have been fully met by the Holder. The certificate(s) (or book entry shares) representing the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant shall bear the restrictive legend substantially in the form set forth on Exhibit C hereto; provided that, upon the reasonable request of the Holder, at any time, and from time to time, when such legend is no longer required under the Securities Act or applicable state laws, the Company shall promptly remove such legend from any certificate representing the Warrant Shares (or issue one or more new certificates representing such Warrant Shares, which certificate(s) shall not contain a legend). The Company hereby represents and warrants that any shares of Common Stock issued upon the exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the provisions of Sections 1.2 and/or 1.3 will be duly and validly authorized and issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges (other than taxes, liens or charges created by the Holder or taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously therewith). The Company agrees that the Warrant Shares so issued will be deemed to have been issued to the Holder (and the Holder shall be the beneficial owner thereof) as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant and payment of the Exercise Price are delivered to the Company in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, notwithstanding that the stock transfer books of the Company may then be closed or certificates representing such Warrant Shares may not be actually delivered on such date.
1.5 Full or Partial Exercise. This Warrant shall be exercisable, at the election of the Holder, either in full or in part and, in the event that this Warrant is exercised in respect of fewer than all of the Warrant Shares issuable on such exercise at any time prior to the Expiration Date, the Company shall promptly issue a new certificate evidencing the remaining Warrant or Warrants, in a form substantially identical hereto, in the name of the Holder, and delivered to the Holder or to another Person that the Holder has designated for delivery as soon as practicable, and in any event not exceeding three (3) Business Days from such exercise.
1.6 Restrictions on Exercise. The Holder will not be permitted to exercise the right to purchase Warrant Shares if and to the extent, as a result of such exercise, either (i) such Holder’s, together with such Holder’s Affiliates’, aggregate voting power on any matter that could
6
be voted on by holders of the Common Stock would exceed 19.9% of the Maximum Voting Power or (ii) such Holder, together with such Holder’s Affiliates, would beneficially own more than 19.9% of the then outstanding Common Stock; provided, however, that such exercise restriction shall not apply in connection with and subject to completion of (A) a Public Sale of the Warrant Shares to be issued upon such exercise, (B) a bona fide third party tender offer for the Common Stock issuable thereupon, or (C) a Liquidity Event if, in the case of each of clauses (A), (B) and (C), such Holder and its Affiliates will not beneficially own in excess of 19.9% of the then outstanding Common Stock following the consummation of such event. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates shall include the number of Warrant Shares to be issued with respect to which a Notice of Exercise by Net Share Settlement or Purchase Form has been given and the shares of Common Stock to be issued in connection with the exercise of any other outstanding warrants beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its Affiliates. Upon the written request of the Holder, the Company shall within two (2) Trading Days confirm in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. The restrictions contained in this paragraph shall automatically terminate upon the consummation of a Liquidity Event with respect to the surviving Person (if other than the Company).
In no event shall this Warrant be exercised for a number of Warrant Shares that would require shareholder approval pursuant to Nasdaq Rule 5635 (or successor rule) unless such shareholder approval is obtained. The Company covenants that it will not take any action that would result in an adjustment to the Exercise Price or number of Warrant Shares that would require such shareholder approval without first obtaining shareholder approval.
1.7 Automatic Cashless Exercise upon Expiration. In the event that, upon the Expiration Date, the Market Price is greater than the Exercise Price in effect on such date, then this Warrant shall automatically be deemed on and as of the Expiration Date to be exercised pursuant to Section 1.3 above as to all Warrant Shares for which it shall not previously have been exercised (the “AutomaticExercise”), and the Company shall take such other actions as required pursuant to Section 1.4 in connection with such Automatic Exercise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Automatic Exercise shall be subject to the provisions and limitations set forth in Section 1.6.
2. Paymentof Taxes. Issuance of certificates for 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 certificate, all of which taxes (other than any such taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously therewith) and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates 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 certificates for Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by a properly executed assignment form in the form attached as Exhibit D hereto, and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.
3. Mutilated,Missing or Lost Warrant. In the event that this Warrant shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue and countersign, in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of the mutilated Warrant, or in lieu of and substitution for
7
its loss, theft or destruction, a new Warrant with identical terms, representing an equivalent number of Warrant Shares and dated the same date as this Warrant that was mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, but only upon receipt of evidence and indemnity or other security reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft or destruction of this Warrant; provided, however, that in the event a new Warrant is issued pursuant to this Section 3 in a name other than the name of the Holder on the date the Warrant was mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Holder shall present to the Company, in addition to the requirements of this Section 3, a properly executed assignment in the form attached as Exhibit D hereto, and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.
4. Reservationof Warrant Shares.
4.1 At all times prior to the Expiration Date, the Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon the exercise of this Warrant, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the aggregate Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary to assure that all such shares of Common Stock may be so issued without violating the Company’s governing documents, any agreements to which the Company is a party on the date hereof, any requirements of any national securities exchange upon which shares of Common Stock may be listed or any applicable laws. The Company shall not take any action which would cause the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to be less than the number of such shares required to be reserved hereunder for issuance upon exercise of the Warrants.
4.2 The Company covenants that it will take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that all Warrant Shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant will, upon issuance in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, be fully paid and non-assessable, and free from any and all (i) security interests created by or imposed upon the Company and (ii) taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof. If at any time prior to the Expiration Date the number and kind of authorized but unissued shares of the Company’s Common Stock shall not be sufficient to permit exercise in full of this Warrant, the Company will as promptly as reasonably practicable take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be reasonably necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will not increase the stated or par value per share, if any, of the Common Stock above the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such increase in stated or par value.
4.3 The Company represents and warrants to the Holders that the issuance of this Warrant and the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise thereof in accordance with the terms hereof will not constitute a breach of, or a default under, any other material agreements to which the Company is a party on the date hereof and that this Warrant constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company.
5. FractionalShares. No fractional Warrant Shares, or scrip for any such fractional Warrant Shares, shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. If any fraction of a share of Common Stock would, except for the provisions of this Section 5, be issuable on the exercise of any Warrant, the Holder shall be entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the Market Price of the Common Stock less the Exercise Price for such fractional Warrant Share.
8
6. Anti-dilutionAdjustments and Other Rights. The number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:
6.1 Changes to Common Stock. If the Company (i) declares, orders, pays or makes a dividend or a distribution on its Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of the Warrants), (ii) splits, subdivides or reclassifies its outstanding Common Stock into a larger number of shares of Common Stock, (iii) combines or reclassifies its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock or (iv) increases or decreases the number of Common Stock outstanding by reclassification of its shares of Common Stock, then in each case, the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable will be adjusted based on the following formula:
NS’ = NS0 x OS’
OS0
where:
| NS’ | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable in effect immediately after such event; |
|---|---|---|
| NS0 | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable in effect immediately prior to such event; |
| --- | --- | --- |
| OS’ | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event; and |
| --- | --- | --- |
| OS0 | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event. |
| --- | --- | --- |
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day following the date fixed for such determination. The Company will not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in treasury by the Company. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this Section 6.1 is declared but not so paid or made, the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall again be adjusted to be the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant would be exercisable if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.
6.2 Options. If the Company issues to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock any Options entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock, subject to the last paragraph of this Section 6.2, at a price per share of Common Stock less than the Market Price per share of Common Stock on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance, the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable will be adjusted based on the following formula:
9
NS’ = NS0 x OS0+X
OS0+Y
where:
| NS’ | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable in effect immediately after such event; |
|---|---|---|
| NS0 | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable in effect immediately prior to such event; |
| --- | --- | --- |
| OS0 | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event; |
| --- | --- | --- |
| X | = | the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such Options; and |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Y | = | the number of shares of Common Stock equal to (i)(A) the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such Options multiplied by (B) the price per share of Common Stock payable to exercise such Options, divided by (ii) the Market Price per share of Common Stock as of the record date. |
| --- | --- | --- |
Such adjustment shall be successively made whenever any such Options are issued and shall become effective immediately after 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day following the date fixed for such determination. The Company shall not issue any such Options in respect of shares of Common Stock held in treasury by the Company. To the extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such Options, the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be readjusted to be the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant would be exercisable had the adjustments made upon the issuance of such Options been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered. If such Options are not so issued, the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall again be adjusted to be the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant would be exercisable if such date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such Options had not been fixed. No adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section 6.2 which shall have the effect of decreasing the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.
In determining whether any Options entitle the Holder to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at less than such Market Price, and in determining the aggregate price payable to exercise such Options, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such Options and any amount payable on exercise thereof, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.
In the event the Company adopts or implements a shareholder rights agreement (a “Shareholder Rights Plan”) pursuant to which rights (“Rights”) are distributed to the holders of Common Stock of the Company and such Shareholder Rights Plan provides that each Warrant Share issued upon exercise of this Warrant at any time prior to the distribution of separate certificates representing such Rights will be entitled to receive such Rights, then there shall not be any adjustment to the
10
number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant or Exercise Price at any time prior to the distribution of separate certificates representing such Rights. If, however, prior to any exercise, the Rights have separated from the Common Stock, the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be adjusted at the time of separation as described in this Section 6.2.
6.3 Cash and Other Distributions. If the Company fixes a record date for the making of any distribution of cash, shares of its Common Stock, other securities, evidences of indebtedness or other assets or property of the Company to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, excluding:
| (i) | dividends or distributions and Options referred to in Sections 6.1 or 6.2; and |
|---|---|
| (ii) | cash distributions in connection with the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up; |
| --- | --- |
then the Holder shall receive, simultaneously with the distribution to the holders of the Company’s Common Stock, a dividend or other distribution of such cash or securities in an amount equal to the amount of such cash or securities as the Holder would have received if the Warrant had been exercised in full into Warrant Shares on the date of such event.
6.4 Adjustment Upon Issuance of Common Stock. Except in the case of (i) Common Stock issued by the Company in connection with any Excluded Securities and (ii) an event described in either Section 6.1 or Section 6.2, if the Company shall, at any time or from time to time after the Issue Date, issue or sell any shares of Common Stock or is deemed to have issued or sold any shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 6.4.3, in each case, without consideration or for consideration or having a combined purchase and conversion, exchange or exercise price of less than $1.00 per share of Common Stock (the “Minimum Price”), the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable will be adjusted based on the following formula:
NS’ = NS0 x DOS’
DOS0
- Z
where:
| NS’ | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable in effect immediately after such issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale); |
|---|---|---|
| NS0 | = | the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable in effect immediately prior to such issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale); |
| --- | --- | --- |
| DOS’ | = | the Common Stock Deemed Outstanding as of immediately after such issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale); |
| --- | --- | --- |
| DOS0 | = | the Common Stock Deemed Outstanding as of immediately prior to such issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale); and |
| --- | --- | --- |
11
| Z | = | the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate amount of consideration, if any, received by the Company upon such issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale) would purchase at the Minimum Price. |
|---|
For the purposes of any adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a Warrant pursuant to this Section 6, the following provisions shall be applicable:
6.4.1 In the case of the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities for cash, the amount of the consideration received by the Company shall be deemed to be the amount of the gross cash proceeds received by the Company for such securities before deducting from such amount any discounts or commissions allowed, paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale of such Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities.
6.4.2 In the case of the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities (other than upon the conversion of stock or other securities of the Company) for consideration in whole or in part other than cash, including securities acquired in exchange for such shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities (other than securities by their terms so exchangeable), the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair market value thereof.
6.4.3 In the case of the issuance of Convertible Securities or Options (in each case, whether or not at the time so convertible, exchangeable or exercisable): (i) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion, exchange or exercise of such Convertible Securities or Options shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such Convertible Securities or Options are issued and for consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in this Section 6.4), if any, received by the Company upon the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities or Options plus the minimum purchase price provided in such Convertible Securities or Options for shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion, exchange or exercise by such Convertible Securities or Options; and (ii) if the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a Warrant shall have been adjusted upon the issuance or sale of any Convertible Securities or Options, no further adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a Warrant shall be made for the actual issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities or Options.
6.5 No Adjustment if Participating. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6, no adjustment shall be made thereunder, nor shall an adjustment be made to the ability of a Holder to exercise, for any distribution described therein if the Holder will otherwise participate in the distribution with respect to its Warrant Shares without exercise of this Warrant (without giving effect to any separate exercise of preemptive rights).
6.6 No Adjustment. No adjustment to the Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable need be made:
6.6.1 upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on securities
12
of the Company and the investment of additional optional amounts in shares of Common Stock under any plan;
6.6.2 upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or Options to purchase shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future employee, director or consultant benefit plan or program of or assumed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries;
6.6.3 upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any Option, or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security not described in Section 6.2 and outstanding as of the Issue Date or issued in exchange for (or as a replacement of) any such security outstanding as of the Issue Date; or
6.6.4 for a change in the par value of the Common Stock.
6.7 Calculations. All adjustments made to the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of each Warrant pursuant to this Section 6 shall be calculated to the nearest one-ten thousandth of a Warrant Share (0.0001). Except as described in this Section 6, the Company will not adjust the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable.
No adjustments of the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant that would otherwise be required shall be made unless and until such adjustment either by itself or with other adjustments not previously made increases or decreases by at least 0.1% the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to the making of such adjustment. Any adjustment representing a change of less than such minimum amount shall be carried forward and made as soon as such adjustment, together with other adjustments required by this Section 6 and not previously made, would result in such minimum adjustment.
6.8 Adjustment Event. In any case in which this Section 6 provides that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after (i) a record date or record date for an event, (ii) the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive a dividend or distribution pursuant to this Section 6 or (iii) a date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive Options pursuant to this Section 6 (each, a “Determination Date”), the Company may elect to defer until the occurrence of the applicable Adjustment Event (x) issuing to the Holder of any Warrant exercised after such Determination Date and before the occurrence of such Adjustment Event, the additional shares of Common Stock or other securities issuable upon such exercise by reason of the adjustment required by such Adjustment Event over and above the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion before giving effect to such adjustment and (y) paying to such Holder any amount in cash in lieu of any fraction pursuant to Section 5. For purposes of this Section 6, the term “Adjustment Event” shall mean:
| (A) | in any case referred to in clause (i) hereof, the occurrence of such event; |
|---|---|
| (B) | in any case referred to in clause (ii) hereof, the date any such dividend or distribution is paid<br>or made; and |
| --- | --- |

| --- | --- |
13
6.9 Number of Shares Outstanding. For purposes of this Section 6, the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company will not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company.
6.10 Successive Adjustments. Successive adjustments in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be made, without duplication, whenever any event specified in this Section 6 shall occur.
6.11 Adjustment for Unspecified Actions. If the Company takes any action affecting the Common Stock, other than any action described in this Section 6, which in the opinion of the Board would materially adversely affect the exercise rights of the Holder, then the number of Warrant Shares received upon exercise of this Warrant may be adjusted, to the extent permitted by law, in such manner, if any, and at such time as the Board may determine in good faith to be equitable in the circumstances; provided, however, that in no event shall any adjustment have the effect of increasing the Exercise Price or decreasing the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant may be exercised.
7. LiquidityEvent. Any recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, or other transaction, which, in each case, is effected in such a way that all of the holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive (either directly or upon subsequent related dividend, distribution or liquidation) cash, stock, securities or assets (or a combination of the foregoing) with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock (other than a transaction that triggers an adjustment pursuant to Sections 6.1 or 6.2) is referred to herein as a “Liquidity Event”. In connection with any Liquidity Event, each Holder shall have the right to acquire and receive, upon exercise of such Warrants, such cash, stock, securities or other assets or property as would have been issued or payable in such Liquidity Event (if such Holder had exercised such Warrant immediately prior to such Liquidity Event) with respect to or in exchange, as applicable, for the number of Warrant Shares that would have been issued upon exercise of such Warrants. The Company shall not effect any Liquidity Event unless simultaneously with the consummation thereof, the surviving or resulting Person (if other than the Company) resulting from such Liquidity Event shall assume in all material respects (including with respect to the provisions of Section 6 and this Section 7), the obligation to deliver to the Holder such cash, stock, securities or other assets or property which, in accordance with the foregoing provision, the Holder shall be entitled to receive upon exercise of the Warrants. The provisions of this Section 7 shall similarly apply to successive Liquidity Events.
8. Notices.
8.1 Notices Generally. Except as otherwise expressly provided hereunder, all notices referred to herein shall be in writing and shall be delivered by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid, or by reputable overnight courier service, charges prepaid, and shall be deemed to have been given when so mailed or sent (i) to the Company, at its principal executive offices and (ii) to the Holder, at the Holder’s address as it appears in the stock records of the Company (unless otherwise indicated by the Holder in writing), and to such other Persons identified in Exhibit E hereto (as may be revised by the Holder in writing).
14
8.2 Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares and other property, if any, issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company shall deliver to the Holder a certificate of its Chief Financial Officer setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment and the method by which such adjustment was calculated and specifying the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants after giving effect to such adjustment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Holder objects to the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (after giving effect to the proposed adjustment) set forth in the certificate provided by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, the Company shall promptly obtain a certificate of an Independent Financial Expert appointed for such purpose setting forth the same information and detail as required in the immediately preceding sentence, and such certificate shall be used for the basis to effect the applicable adjustment to the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. The costs and expenses of such Independent Financial Expert shall be paid by the Holder, unless the calculations of the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (after giving effect to the proposed adjustment) set forth in the certificate of the Independent Financial Expert differ by 3% or more from the calculations set forth in the certificate provided by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, in which case such costs and expenses shall be paid by the Company.
8.3 Notice of Certain Transactions. In the event the Company shall propose to (i) distribute any dividend or other distribution to all holders of its Common Stock or options, warrants or other rights to receive such dividend or distribution, (ii) offer to all holders of its Common Stock Options to subscribe for or to purchase any Convertible Securities or shares of stock of any class or any other securities, rights or options, (iii) effect any capital reorganization, reclassification, consolidation or merger, (iv) effect the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company or (v) make a tender offer or exchange offer with respect to the Common Stock, the Company shall promptly send to the Holder a notice of such proposed action or offer in accordance with Section 8.1, which shall specify the record date for the purposes of such dividend, distribution or rights, or the date such issuance or event is to take place and the date of participation therein by the holders of Common Stock, if any such date is to be fixed, and shall briefly indicate the effect, if any, of such action on the Common Stock and on the number and kind of any other shares of stock and other property of the Company, if any, and the number of shares of Common Stock and other property, if any, issuable upon exercise of each Warrant and the Exercise Price after giving effect to any such adjustment pursuant to Section 6 which will be required as a result of such action. Such notice shall be given as promptly as possible and, in any case, not less than fourteen (14) days prior to the date of the taking of such action, or participation therein, by the holders of Common Stock.

10. RegistrationRights.
10.1 Registration Statement. The Company shall file, within 60 calendar days of the Issue Date, a registration statement for a shelf registration on Form S-3 (the “Form S-3 Shelf”), or if the Company is ineligible to use a Form S-3 Shelf, a registration statement for a shelf registration on Form S-1 (the “Form S-1 Shelf” and, together with the Form S-3 Shelf (and any Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement (as defined below)), each, a “Shelf” or “RegistrationStatement”), in each case, covering the resale of all the Warrant Shares (determined as of two (2) Business Days prior to such filing) on a delayed or continuous basis; provided that the Holder shall have delivered to the Company all reasonably requested information regarding the Holder and its beneficial ownership of Warrant Shares not later than five (5) Business Days prior to the filing of the Registration Statement. The Shelf shall provide for the resale of the Warrant Shares pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by, the Holder.
10.2 Effectiveness of Registration Statement. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Shelf to become effective as soon as practicable after such filing, but no later than the earlier of (i) 45 calendar days after the filing thereof (or, in the event the Commission reviews and has written comments to the Registration Statement, the 90th calendar day following the filing thereof), (ii) the fifth Business Day after the date the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review, or (iii) if the day determined under clause (i) or clause (ii) falls on a Saturday, Sunday or other day that the Commission is closed for business, the next Business Day immediately following the day determined under clause (i) or clause (ii) on which the Commission is open for business (the date determined under clause (i), (ii) or (iii), the “Effectiveness Deadline”). The Company shall maintain a Shelf in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and shall prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and supplements as may be reasonably necessary to keep such Shelf continuously effective, available for use and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the Warrant Shares held by a Holder until the earlier of (A) such time as all Warrant Shares issuable to such Holder have been
16
sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of pursuant to a Registration Statement or Rule 144, or (B) such time as all remaining Warrant Shares held by, or issuable to, such Holder may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without regard to any volume or manner of sale requirement thereunder assuming all Warrants held by the Holder with respect to such Warrant Shares were or will be exercised in accordance with Section 1.3 and all restrictive legends on Warrants and/or Warrant Shares have been removed.
10.3 Conversion of Registration Statement. In the event the Company files a Form S-1 Shelf, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to convert the Form S-1 Shelf (and any Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement) to a Form S-3 Shelf as soon as reasonably practicable after the Company is eligible to use Form S-3.
10.4 Continued Effectiveness. If any Shelf ceases to be effective under the Securities Act for any reason at any time during the period described in Section 10.2 and while there are any Warrants outstanding, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as promptly as is reasonably practicable cause such Shelf to again become effective under the Securities Act (including using its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf), and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to, as promptly as is reasonably practicable, amend such Shelf in a manner reasonably expected to result in the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf or file an additional registration statement as a Shelf (a “SubsequentShelf Registration Statement”) registering the resale of all Warrant Shares from time to time, and pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and reasonably requested by, any Holder whose Warrant Shares are included therein. Any such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be on Form S-3 to the extent that the Company is eligible to use such form. Otherwise, such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be on another appropriate form.
If a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement is filed, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement to become effective under the Securities Act as promptly as is reasonably practicable after the filing thereof and (ii) keep such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective and available for use for the remainder of the period set forth in Section 10.2.
10.5 Notice of Stop Order. The Company shall provide to the Holder prompt written notice of any time that (i) the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) has issued a stop order with respect to the Registration Statement, (ii) the Commission otherwise has suspended or withdrawn the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, either temporarily or permanently, or (iii) the Company has suspended or withdrawn the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, either temporarily or permanently. In the event of such notice, the Company shall, at the election of the Holder, which shall be given within five (5) days of receipt of such notice, either (y) rescind any previously submitted (and outstanding) Notice of Exercise and the Company shall return all consideration paid by the Holder for the applicable Warrant Shares upon such rescission or (z) treat the attempted exercise as a cashless exercise as described in Section 1.3 and refund the cash portion of the Exercise Price to the Holder.
10.6 Expenses. In connection with any registration pursuant to this Section 10, the Company shall pay any applicable filing fee with respect to the Registration Statement and any
17
Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement, and pay its own direct costs, including the professional fees of its own counsel and independent registered accountants. The Holder shall bear the cost of its own counsel, other advisors and any broker or other intermediary involved in any resale, including all applicable underwriting discounts and commissions, brokers’ commissions and stock transfer taxes, if any, on the Warrant Shares sold by the Holder in any such resale.
10.7 Updating Registration Statement. Upon receipt of written notice from the Company that a Registration Statement or prospectus contains a Misstatement, the Holder shall forthwith discontinue disposition of securities pursuant to such Registration Statement or prospectus until it has received copies of a supplemented or amended prospectus correcting the Misstatement (and the Company covenants to prepare and file such supplement or amendment as soon as reasonably practicable after giving such notice), or until it is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the prospectus may be resumed.
10.8 Adverse Disclosure. If the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement in respect of any registration at any time would require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure or would require the inclusion in such Registration Statement of financial statements that are unavailable to the Company, the Company may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holder, delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, such Registration Statement for the shortest period of time, but in no event more than three times or an aggregate of 120 days in any 12-month period, determined in good faith by the Board to be necessary for such purpose. In the event the Company exercises its rights under the preceding sentence, the Holder agrees to suspend, immediately upon its receipt of the notice referred to above, its use of the prospectus relating to such registration in connection with any sale of, or offer to sell, securities pursuant to such Registration Statement or prospectus. The Company shall immediately notify the Holder of the expiration of any period during which it exercised its rights under this Section 10.
10.9 Indemnification. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Holder, its officers, managers, directors, trustees, equityholders, beneficiaries, Affiliates, agents and representatives and each Person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) (or actions in respect thereto) caused by, resulting from, arising out of or based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or similar document incident to any registration, qualification, compliance or sale effected pursuant to this Section 10 or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (ii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act or any other similar federal or state securities laws, and will reimburse, as incurred, the Holder, its officers, managers, directors, trustees, equityholders, beneficiaries, Affiliates, agents and representatives and each Person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is caused by or arises out of or is based on any untrue statement or omission made in reliance and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the Holder expressly for use therein.
18
10.10 Restrictive Legends. The Company shall, upon the Holder’s request, deliver all the necessary documentation to cause the Company’s transfer agent to remove any restrictive legend on the Warrants or Warrant Shares, as promptly as reasonably practicable and no later than two (2) Trading Days after such request, when the Warrants or Warrant Shares are sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or a Registration Statement, in each case in accordance with customary practice and in each case upon receipt by the Company of customary certifications from the Holder and any broker or other intermediary involved in the sale as to Holder’s and such broker’s or intermediary’s compliance with Rule 144 or such Registration Statement. In connection therewith, if required by the Company’s transfer agent, the Company will, at its sole cost and expense, promptly cause an opinion of counsel in customary form to be delivered to and maintained with its transfer agent, together with any other authorizations, certificates and directions required by the transfer agent that authorize and direct the transfer agent to deliver such Warrants or Warrant Shares without any such legend. If restrictive legends are no longer required for the Warrants or Warrant Shares pursuant to the foregoing, the Company shall, reasonably promptly following any request therefor from the Holder accompanied by such customary and reasonably acceptable representations and other documentation referred to above establishing that restrictive legends are no longer required, deliver to the transfer agent irrevocable instructions that the transfer agent shall make a new entry for the securities free of any restrictive legend. The Holder, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges and agrees that the removal of any restrictive legend from any securities as set forth herein is predicated upon the Company’s reliance that the Holder will sell such securities pursuant either to the registration requirements of the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom, and that if such securities are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement, they will be sold when such Registration Statement is effective and available for resales of such securities, in compliance with the plan of distribution set forth therein. The Company and its counsel and transfer agent shall be entitled to rely on the foregoing agreement and/or such certificate of the Holder and any broker or other intermediary involved in such sale in issuing instruction letters and opinions.
11. NoRights as Stockholder until Exercise. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any of the rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof, including, without limitation, the right to receive dividends or other distributions, exercise any rights to vote or to consent or to receive notice as stockholders in respect of the meetings of stockholders or the election of directors of the Company or any other matter. No provision hereof and no mere enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the Exercise Price hereunder or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.
12. Successorsand Assigns. Subject to the transfer conditions referred to in the legend on the Warrant, the Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, by the Holder, upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company; provided, however, that the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment by the Holder of a sum sufficient to reimburse the Company for any transfer tax incidental thereto; provided, further, that this Warrant may only be transferred to a Person that is a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code. Upon such compliance, surrender and delivery, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees and in the denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant, if any, not so assigned and this Warrant shall
19
promptly be cancelled. The terms and provisions of this Warrant shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the Company and the Holder and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
13. GoverningLaw. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to conflict of law principles.
14. Severability. In the event that one or more of the provisions of this Warrant shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Warrant, but this Warrant shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. Furthermore, in lieu of any such invalid or unenforceable term or provision, the parties hereto intend that there shall be added as a part of this Agreement a provision as similar in terms to such invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be valid and enforceable.
15. Changeor Waiver. Any term of this Warrant may be changed or waived only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which enforcement is sought.
16. Headings. The headings in this Warrant are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning of any provision of this Warrant.
17. Counterparts. This Warrant may be executed in any number of original or facsimile counterparts and each of such counterparts shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.
18. Remedies. The remedies provided in this Warrant shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Warrant, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the right of the parties to pursue actual damages for any failure by the other party to comply with the terms of this Warrant. The parties acknowledge that a breach or threatened breach by it of its obligations hereunder would give rise to irreparable harm to the other party, and monetary damages for any such breach would not be an adequate remedy. The parties therefore agree that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the other party shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to equitable relief, including an injunction restraining any breach, specific performance, and any other relief that may be available from a court of competent jurisdiction, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required. In the event of any dispute between the parties concerning the terms and provisions of this Warrant, the party prevailing in such dispute shall be entitled to collect from the other party all costs incurred in such dispute, including reasonable attorneys’ fees.
19. NoInconsistent Agreements. The Company shall not, on or after the date hereof, enter into any agreement with respect to its securities which conflicts with the rights granted to the Holder hereunder. The Company represents and warrants to the Holder that the rights granted hereunder do not in any way conflict with the rights granted to holders of the Company’s securities under any other agreements.

Exhibit 10.1
Confidential
Exchange Agreement
[●], 2025
Accuray Incorporated
3.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026
The undersigned investor (the “Investor”), for itself and on behalf of the beneficial owners listed on Exhibit A hereto (“Accounts”) for whom the Investor holds contractual and investment authority (each, including the Investor if it is a party exchanging Notes (as defined below), an “Exchanging Investor”), hereby agrees to exchange, with Accuray Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), certain 3.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026, CUSIP No. 004397 AK1 (the “Notes”) for the Exchange Consideration (as defined below) pursuant to this exchange agreement (this “Agreement” or the “Exchange Agreement”). The Investor understands that the exchange (the “Exchange”) is being made without registration of the offer or sale of the Shares (as defined below) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any securities laws of any state of the United States or of any other jurisdiction in a private placement pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and that each Exchanging Investor participating in the Exchange is required to be an institutional “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Regulation D under the Securities Act that is also a “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement have the respective meanings set forth in the Indenture, dated as of May 13, 2021 (the “Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., a national banking association organized under the laws of the United States, as trustee (the “Trustee”).
1. Exchange. On the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements herein contained and subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Investor hereby agrees to exchange for itself and on behalf of the Exchanging Investors, an aggregate principal amount of the Notes set forth on Exhibit A hereto (the “Exchanged Notes”) for:
(a) an amount of cash as set forth on Exhibit A hereto (the “Cash Payment”); and
(b) a number of shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share as set forth on Exhibit A hereto (the “Shares”, and together with the Cash Payment, the “Exchange Consideration”)).
The parties hereto hereby agree that any accrued and unpaid interest on the Exchanged Notes shall be included in the Cash Payment and no separate payment will be made in respect of any accrued and unpaid interest on the Exchanged Notes.
The Investor agrees that neither it nor any Exchanging Investor will deliver a Notice of Conversion with respect to any Exchanged Notes and the Investor and each Exchanging Investor shall hold the Exchanged Notes until the Closing (as defined below). In consideration for the performance of their obligations hereunder (including as described in the immediately preceding sentence), the Company agrees to deliver the Exchange Consideration on the Closing Date (as defined below) to each Exchanging Investor in exchange for its Exchanged Notes. For the avoidance of doubt, no additional interest shall be payable on the Exchange Notes for any delay in the delivery of the Exchange Consideration beyond the Closing Date regardless of the reason therefor.
1
The Exchange shall occur in accordance with the procedures set forth in Exhibit B.2 hereto (the “Exchange Procedures”); provided that each of the Company and the Investor acknowledges that the delivery of the Shares to any Exchanging Investor may be delayed due to procedures and mechanics within the system of the transfer agent, The Depositary Trust Company (“DTC”) or The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) or other events beyond the Company’s control and that such a delay will not be a default under this Agreement so long as (i) the Company is using its reasonable efforts to effect such delivery, or (ii) such delay arises due to a failure by Investor to deliver settlement instructions in accordance with Section 3(q); provided, further, that no delivery of the Exchange Consideration will be made until the Exchanged Notes have been properly submitted for exchange in accordance with the Exchange Procedures.
The closing of the Exchange (the “Closing”) shall take place remotely via the exchange of documents and signatures at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on June 11, 2025 (the “ClosingDate”), or at such other time and place as the Company and the Investor may mutually agree. On the Closing Date, subject to satisfaction of the conditions precedent specified herein, the Company shall deliver the Shares to the DTC account and the Cash Payment by wire transfer to the account, in each case specified by the Investor for each relevant Exchanging Investor in Exhibit B.1. All questions as to the form of all documents and the validity and acceptance of the Exchanged Notes will be determined by the Company, in its sole discretion, which determination shall be final and binding. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, upon the Closing, the Investor hereby, for itself and on behalf of its Accounts, (a) waives any and all other rights with respect to such Exchanged Notes and (b) releases and discharges the Company and J. Wood Capital Advisors LLC (the “Exchange Agent”) from any and all claims, actions, causes or rights, whether known or unknown, contingent or matured, that the undersigned and its Accounts may now have, or may have in the future, arising out of, or related to, such Exchanged Notes.
2. Representations and Warranties and Covenants of the Company. As of the date hereof and the Closing Date, the Company represents and warrants to, and covenants with, the Exchanging Investors that:
(a) The Company is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation and has the requisite power and authority to its properties and to carry on its business as now being conducted. The Company is duly qualified as a foreign entity to do business (where such concept exists) and is in good standing in every jurisdiction (where such concept exists) in which its ownership of property or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary, except to the extent that the failure to be so qualified or be in good standing would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business, properties, assets, liabilities, operations (including results thereof), or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company or its subsidiaries, taken as a whole. The Company has the power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement, to perform its obligations hereunder, and to consummate the Exchange contemplated hereby.
(b) This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except that such enforcement may be subject to (A) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting or relating to enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (B) general principles of equity, whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity (the “Enforceability Exceptions”).
2
(c) This Agreement and the consummation of the Exchange will not violate, conflict with or result in a breach of or default under (i) the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Company, (ii) any agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which the Company or any of its assets are bound, or (iii) assuming the truth and accuracy of the representations and warranties and compliance with the covenants of the Investor and each Exchanging Investor herein, any laws, regulations or governmental or judicial decrees, injunctions or orders applicable to the Company, except in the case of clauses (ii) or (iii), where such violations, conflicts, breaches or defaults as would not materially impair the ability of the Company to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration, declaration or filing with any governmental entity is required on the part of the Company in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement and the consummation by the Company of the Exchange, except as may be required under any state or federal securities laws or that may be made or obtained after the Closing without penalty or such that would not reasonably be expected to materially impair the ability of the Company to perform its obligations under this Agreement or to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
(d) When issued, delivered and paid for in the manner set forth in this Agreement, the Shares will (i) be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, (ii) be free and clear of any Liens (as defined in Section 3(c) below), option, equity or other adverse claim thereto, including claims or rights under any voting trust agreements, shareholder agreements or other agreements to which the Company is a party, and (iii) will not be subject to any preemptive, participation, rights of first refusal or other similar rights under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or any agreements to which the Company is a party (other than any such rights that will be waived prior to the Closing).

The Investor and each Exchanging Investor has considered the suitability of the Shares as an investment in light of the Investor and such Exchanging Investor’s circumstances and financial condition and is able to bear the risks associated with an investment in the Shares.
(h) The Investor confirms that it and each Exchanging Investor is not relying on any communication (written or oral) of the Company, the Exchange Agent or any of their respective affiliates or representatives as investment advice or as a recommendation to acquire the Shares or the Cash Payment in the Exchange. It is understood that information provided by the Company, the Exchange Agent or any of their respective affiliates and representatives shall not be considered investment advice or a recommendation to participate in the Exchange, and that none of the Company, the Exchange Agent or any of their respective affiliates or representatives is acting or has acted as an advisor to the Investor or any Exchanging Investor in deciding to participate in the Exchange.

The Investor confirms that it and each Exchanging Investor is not relying and has not relied, upon any statement, advice (whether accounting, tax, financial legal or other), representation or warranty by the Company or any of its affiliates or representatives, including, without limitation, the Exchange Agent, its affiliates and its or their directors, officers, employees, representatives and controlling persons, except for the representations and warranties made by the Company in this Agreement, and that the Investor has made its own independent decision that the investment in the Shares and the receipt of the Cash Payment is suitable and appropriate for the Investor and the Exchanging Investors.

To the Investor’s knowledge, no Exchanging Investor acquired any of the Notes, directly or indirectly, from an Affiliate of the Company.
(m) Each Exchanging Investor is acquiring the Shares solely for its own beneficial account, for investment purposes, and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution of the Shares. The Investor and each Exchanging Investor understands that the offer and sale of the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and are being issued without registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, which exemption depends in part upon the investment intent of the Exchanging Investors and the accuracy of the other representations and warranties made by the Investor or on behalf of the Exchanging Investors in this Agreement. The Investor and the Exchanging Investors understand that the Company is relying upon the representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement (and any supplemental information provided to the Company by the Investor or the Exchanging Investors) for the purpose of determining whether this transaction meets the requirements for such exemption(s) and to issue the Shares without legends as set forth herein.
(n) The Investor acknowledges that the terms of the Exchange have been mutually negotiated between the Investor and the Company. The Investor was given a meaningful opportunity to negotiate the terms of the Exchange.
(o) The Investor acknowledges that it and each Exchanging Investor had a sufficient amount of time to consider whether to participate in the Exchange and that neither the Company nor the Exchange Agent has placed any pressure on the Investor or any Exchanging Investor to respond to the opportunity to participate in the Exchange.

(p) The Investor will, upon request, execute and deliver, for itself and on behalf of any Exchanging Investor, any additional documents deemed by the Company and the Trustee or
6
the transfer agent to be reasonably necessary to complete the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
(q) No later than one (1) business day after the date hereof, the Investor agrees to deliver to the Company settlement instructions substantially in the form of Exhibit B.1 attached to this Agreement for each of the Exchanging Investors and the tax information and forms specified in Section 20.
(r) The Investor acknowledges that it and each Exchanging Investor understands that the Company intends to pay the Exchange Agent a fee in respect of the Exchange.
(s) The Investor acknowledges and agrees that it and each Exchanging Investor has not disclosed, and will not disclose, to any third party any information regarding the Exchange, and has not transacted, and will not transact in any securities of the Company, including, but not limited to, any hedging transactions, from the time the Investor was first contacted by the Company or the Exchange Agent with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement until after the confidential information (as described in the confirmatory wall-crossing email received by the Investor from the Exchange Agent) is made public.
(t) The Investor and each Exchanging Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Exchange Agent has not acted as a financial advisor or fiduciary to the Investor or any Exchanging Investor and that the Exchange Agent, its affiliates and its or their respective directors, officers, employees, representatives and controlling persons have no responsibility for making, and have not made, any independent investigation of the information contained herein or in the Company’s SEC Filings and make no representation or warranty to the Investor or any Exchanging Investor, express or implied, with respect to the Company, the Exchanged Notes or the Shares or the accuracy, completeness or adequacy of the information provided to the Investor or any Exchanging Investor or any other publicly available information, nor shall any of the foregoing persons be liable for any loss or damages of any kind resulting from the use of the information contained herein or otherwise supplied to the Investor or any Exchanging Investor or in connection with the Exchange.

The Investor and each Exchanging Investor acknowledges that they have not relied upon the non-disclosure of any such Information for purposes of making their decision to participate in the Exchange. The Investor and each Exchanging Investor understands, based on its experience, the disadvantage to which the Investor and each Exchanging Investor is subject due to the disparity of information between the Company, on the one hand, and the Investor and each Exchanging Investor, on the other hand. Notwithstanding this, the Investor and each Exchanging Investor has deemed it appropriate to participate in the Exchange. The Investor agrees that the Company and its directors, officers, employees, agents, stockholders and affiliates shall have no liability to the Investor or any Exchanging Investor or their respective beneficiaries whatsoever due to or in connection with the Company’s use or non-disclosure of the Information or otherwise as a result of the Exchange, and the Investor hereby irrevocably waives any claim that it or any Exchanging Investor might have based on the failure of the Company to disclose the Information. The Investor and each Exchanging Investor also specifically acknowledges that the Company would not enter
7
into this Agreement or any related documents in the absence of such Investor’s representations and acknowledgments set out in this Agreement, and that this Agreement, including such representations and acknowledgments, are a fundamental inducement to the Company, and a substantial portion of the consideration provided by such Investor, in this transaction, and that the Company would not enter into this transaction but for this inducement.
(v) The Investor and each Exchanging Investor understands that no federal, state, local or foreign agency has passed upon the merits or risks of an investment in the Shares or made any finding or determination concerning the fairness or advisability of this investment.
(w) The operations of the Investor and each Exchanging Investor have been conducted in material compliance with the applicable rules and regulations administered or conducted by the U.S. Department of Treasury Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”), the applicable rules and regulations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”) and the applicable Anti-Money Laundering (“AML”) rules in the Bank Secrecy Act. The Investor has performed due diligence necessary to reasonably determine that the Exchanging Investors are not named on the lists of denied parties or blocked persons administered by OFAC, resident in or organized under the laws of a country that is the subject of comprehensive economic sanctions and embargoes administered or conducted by OFAC (“Sanctions”), are not otherwise the subject of Sanctions and have not been found to be in violation or under suspicion of violating OFAC, FCPA or AML rules and regulations.
(x) The Investor and each Exchanging Investor acknowledges that the Company may issue appropriate stop-transfer instructions to its transfer agent, if any, and may make appropriate notations to the same effect in its books and records to ensure compliance with the provisions of this Section 3.
(y) The Investor and each Exchanging Investor is a resident of the jurisdiction set forth on Exhibit B.1 attached to this Agreement.
(z) The Investor and each Exchanging Investor understands that the Company, the Exchange Agent and others will rely upon the truth and accuracy of the foregoing representations, warranties and covenants and agrees that if any of the representations and warranties deemed to have been made by it or the Exchanging Investors are no longer accurate, the Investor shall promptly notify the Company and the Exchange Agent prior to the Closing. The Investor understands that, unless the Investor notifies the Company in writing to the contrary before the Closing, each of the Investor’s and Exchanging Investors’ representations and warranties contained in this Agreement will be deemed to have been reaffirmed and confirmed as of the Closing. If the Investor is exchanging any Exchanged Notes and acquiring the Shares as a fiduciary or agent for one or more accounts (including for purposes of this Section 3(z), the Accounts which are Exchanging Investors), it represents that (i) it has sole investment discretion with respect to each such account, (ii) it has full power to make the foregoing representations, warranties and covenants on behalf of such account and (iii) it has contractual authority with respect to each such account.

Upon the execution of this Agreement, the following rights and obligations shall apply:
(a) Prior to the first meeting of the Board scheduled to occur after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall take or have taken all corporate and other action necessary to increase the size of the Board to nine (9) members and the number of authorized Class III directors to three (3) members.
(b) Prior to the first meeting of the Board scheduled to occur after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall take or have taken all corporate and other action reasonably necessary to cause the TCW Director to be appointed as a director to the Board and to fill the vacancy on the Board. The TCW Director shall be designated as a Class III director, with a term expiring at the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders.
(c) The Company shall nominate the TCW Director (or any replacement thereof as provided for in this Agreement) for re-election to the Board at each subsequent meeting of the stockholders of the Company held to consider a vote on the election of the class of directors of which the TCW Director is a member.
(d) The Company shall use the same level of effort that is used by the Company to cause the election of the other directors that are not the TCW Director, but in any event no less than commercially reasonable efforts, to cause the election of the TCW Director (including by (i) recommending that the Company’s stockholders vote in favor of the election of the TCW Director to the Board, (ii) including the TCW Director in the Company’s proxy statement and proxy card for such annual meeting, (iii) undertaking efforts to solicit from the stockholders of the Company eligible to vote for the election of directors proxies in favor of the TCW Director to the same extent it does for all other Company directors and (iv) otherwise supporting the TCW Director for election in a manner no less rigorous and favorable than the manner in which the Company supports its other nominees in the aggregate).
(e) If at any time a vacancy occurs on the Board with respect to the directorship of the TCW Director (by reason of such director’s death, disability, resignation or removal), TCW shall have the right to designate a replacement TCW Director for appointment to fill such vacancy. The TCW Director may resign from the Board at any time, and, subject to applicable law and the Governing Documents, TCW shall have the right at any time to remove (with or without cause) the TCW Director.
(f) If the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Company determines in good faith that the TCW Director designated by TCW (i) is not qualified to
5
serve on the Board consistent with its duly adopted policies and procedures applicable to all directors or (ii) does not satisfy the applicable requirements of the national securities exchange on which the Shares are listed for trading, regarding service as a director of the Company, the Company shall notify TCW and TCW shall withdraw its Board Designation Notice (or, if the TCW Director has already been appointed, cause such director to resign), and TCW shall have the right to designate a different TCW Director.
(g) The Company shall take or cause to be taken all lawful action reasonably necessary to ensure at all times that the Governing Documents are not at any time inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement.
(h) In the event any law, rule or regulation comes into force or effect (including by amendment) which conflicts with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to revise the Agreement to achieve the parties’ intention set forth herein.
Section 2.02. Board Observer. Following the Effective Date and throughout the term of this Agreement, at any time during which a TCW Director is serving on the Board, TCW shall have the right to designate two individuals (such individuals, the “TCW Observers”), each to be appointed as a non-voting observer to the Board by delivery of written notice to the Company. The TCW Observers shall have the right to attend all meetings of the Board, except as otherwise required by applicable law or Stock Exchange Rules, and may participate in discussions at such meetings at the discretion of the Board. The TCW Observers shall have the right to receive all notices, minutes, consents, information and materials relating to meetings of the Board that the TCW Observers have the right to attend at the same time that such notices, minutes, consents, information and materials are distributed to the members of the Board; provided, however, that the Company reserves the right to withhold any information and to exclude such TCW Observers from any meeting or portion thereof if the Board determines in good faith that access to such information or attendance at such meeting would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the attorney-client privilege between the Company and its counsel, where the sole purpose of such meeting or portion thereof is to address matters that may reasonably be deemed to constitute actual or potential conflicts of interest between the TCW Director, such TCW Observer or TCW (solely in its capacity as a lender or agent under the Financing Agreement), on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, including, without limitation, discussions regarding the refinancing or repayment of, covenant negotiations with respect to, defaults under or amendment, waiver or forbearance negotiations with respect to, the Loan Documents (as defined in the Financing Agreement). The TCW Observers may share the materials received pursuant to the preceding sentence with Affiliates of TCW, for the purposes of such Persons’ interests in the loans to, or equity investment in, the Company, including TCW’s and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, managers, partners, employes, advisors, consultants, accountants and attorneys; provided, however, that such recipients must be subject to confidentiality restrictions no less onerous than those applicable to the TCW Observers. In the event that a TCW Observer is excluded from access to any materials or meetings pursuant to this Section 2.02, the Company will, prior to such exclusion, and to the extent practicable, provide such TCW Observer with a
6
notice of the occurrence of and basis for the exclusion, along with a general description of the matter for which the exclusion occurred. The Company shall reimburse the TCW Observers for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including travel expenses) incurred in connection with the TCW Observers’ attendance at meetings of the Board. The presence of the TCW Observers shall not be taken into account or required for the purposes of establishing a quorum.

Exhibit 99.1
Accuray AnnouncesConvertible Notes Exchange and Refinancing of Existing Credit Facilities ****
MADISON, Wis., June 6, 2025 -- Accuray Incorporated (NASDAQ: ARAY) today announced that, after an extensive review over the last several months, including the evaluation of numerous potential financing partners, it has entered into privately negotiated agreements with the holders of its existing 3.75% senior convertible notes due 2026 (the “Notes”) to exchange an aggregate of $82.0 million principal amount of Notes for an aggregate of 8,881,579 shares of the Accuray’s common stock (the “Shares”). As part of the exchange consideration, Accuray will pay exchanging holders an aggregate of approximately $68.6 million in cash. The Exchange is expected to close on or about June 11, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions.
In connection with the Exchange, the Company has entered into a new senior secured credit agreement (the “Financing Agreement”) by and among the Company, as borrower, TCW Asset Management Company LLC, a leading global asset manager (“TCW”), as collateral agent for the lenders and as administrative agent for the lenders and certain other parties party thereto.
The Financing Agreement provides for (a) $150 million of new five-year term loan facilities (the “Term Loan Facilities”), (b) a new $20 million delayed draw term loan facility (the “Delayed Draw Facility”) and (c) a new $20 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility” and, together with the Term Loan Facilities and Delayed Draw Facility, the “Facilities”). The proceeds from the Facilities, plus available cash on hand, will be used to repay in full all outstanding indebtedness under that certain senior secured credit agreement by and among the Company, as borrower, Silicon Valley Bank, individually as a lender and agent, and the other lenders from time to time party thereto, dated as of May 6, 2021.
Interest on the borrowings under the Facilities is payable in arrears on the applicable interest payment date at an interest rate equal to, at the Borrower’s option, either: (i) a term SOFR-based rate (subject to a 2.00% per annum floor), plus an applicable margin of 8.50%, per annum or (ii) a base rate (subject to a 3.00% per annum floor), plus an applicable margin of 7.50% per annum, up to 6.00% per annum of which may be paid in kind by capitalizing such interest and adding it to the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan Facility or Delayed Draw Facility, as applicable (subject to an increase in applicable margin of ^1^/3 of 1.00% per annum for each 1.00% per annum of interest elected to be paid in kind).
The Financing Agreement contains customary restrictions and covenants applicable to the Company and its subsidiaries.
In accordance with the Financing Agreement, Accuray has entered into a governance agreement (the “Governance Agreement”) with TCW, which provides for the
appointment of one director to Accuray’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), as well as two individuals to be appointed as non-voting board observers, to be designated by TCW. Pursuant to the Governance Agreement, TCW has designated, and Accuray has appointed, Steven F. Mayer to its Board.
Mr. Mayer serves as Chairman of the Operations Advisory Council and senior advisor to the private credit group of TCW. Previously, Mr. Mayer was the Executive Chairman of Grifols, SA, a publicly traded global healthcare company, and Co-Head of Global Private Equity and Chairman of the Investment Committee of Cerberus Capital Management, L.P., a private investment firm with approximately $60 billion of capital under management. He has extensive governance experience, having served as a member of the Boards of Directors of more than 30 other public and private companies spanning a range of industries, including medical technology and biotherapeutics.
“I am thrilled to have Steven join the Board. He brings valuable experience that will be an asset to the company and I look forward to working with him, and my fellow directors, on the achievement of two key strategic priorities ― transforming radiation therapy care and creating long term shareholder value,” said Suzanne Winter, president and CEO of Accuray. “Our expanded solution portfolio is the strongest in our company’s history. I am very pleased with the new financing agreement, which we believe positions Accuray well to execute on the long term growth strategies we have laid out, and helps provide the necessary resources to further invest in key business areas.
