Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Effective August 5, 2024, MetAlert, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Carl LaRue (the “Investor”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue to Investor a Convertible Promissory Note (the “Note”), dated August 5, 2024, in the principal amount of $345,000, including $45,000 of original issue discount (OID). The Note was funded by Investor on August 6, 2024, with the Company receiving the first of six scheduled $50,000 tranches, a total of $300,000, the last of such tranches being scheduled for January 10, 2025, with each tranche bearing interest at 5% per annum and having a due date two years after the funding date. The Note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a fixed conversion price of $0.035 per share or, if converted into shares of Company common stock that shall have been qualified in Regulation A offering, at a fixed price equal to the fixed offering price in such Regulation A offering; provided, however, that Investor may not convert the Note to the extent that such conversion would result in Investor’s beneficial ownership of the Company’s common stock being in excess of 4.99% of the Company’s then-issued and outstanding common stock.

 

In addition, the Purchase Agreement contains the following further agreements:

 

Royalty. The Company agreed to pay Investor a royalty per unit of inventory (a “Unit”) sold (the “Royalty”), as follows:

 

(a) from the Issue Date of the Note until the Partial Vesting Date (the date on which Investor shall have delivered $150,000 under the Note), the Company shall accrue a Royalty in favor of Investor of $5.00 per Unit and, within ten (10) business days from the Partial Vesting Date, the Company shall pay such accrued Royalty amount to Investor; and

 

(b) from and after the Partial Vesting Date, the Company shall pay a Royalty in favor of Investor of $5.00 per Unit; provided, however, that the Company’s obligation to pay a Royalty to Investor shall expire on the date that is six months immediately following the date on which Investor shall have received Royalty payments equal to $345,000; provided, further, however, that, should Investor deliver less than all six tranches (the “Lesser Loan Amount”) contemplated in the Note, the Company’s obligation to pay a Royalty to Investor shall expire on the date that is six months immediately following the date on which Investor shall have received Royalty payments equal to the Lesser Loan Amount.

 

Ownership Dilution Protection. The Company agreed that, beginning on the Issue Date of the Note and continuing through the date on which Investor shall have received payments equal to $345,000, either through cash repayments and/or conversions of the Note, (the “Anti-Dilution Period”), Investor shall be issued a cashless warrant (each a “Warrant”) to purchase shares of Company common stock, as follows: with respect to all shares of Company common stock issued as compensation (the “Compensation Shares”) to employees, consultants and/or advisors (each a “Relevant Person”) during the Anti-Dilution Period, Investor shall be issued a cashless warrant to purchase a number of shares of Company common stock equal to 20%)of the number of Compensation Shares issued to a Relevant Person.

 

Security Agreement. As required by the Purchase Agreement, the Company and Investor entered into a security agreement (the “Security Agreement”), which grants Investor a security interest in all of the Company’s Gun AlertTM inventory and all proceeds therefrom.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the Purchase Agreement, the Note, the Security Agreement and the Warrant do not purport to be complete and are qualified in its entireties by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement, the Note, the Security Agreement and the Warrant which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 10.3 and 10.4, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

 

The information contained above in Item 1.01 is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02.

 

The issuance of the Note by the Company to the Investor (Carl La Rue) was made without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), or the securities laws of the applicable state, in reliance on the exemptions provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Act and Regulation D promulgated thereunder, and in reliance on similar exemptions under applicable state law, based on the offering of such securities to only one person, the lack of any general solicitation or advertising in connection with such issuance, that the issuee is an accredited investor (as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D), and that the issuee is acquiring the securities for his own account and without a view to distribute them.

1. Amount and Terms of the Note.

 

1.1 Purchase of the Note. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, for consideration of up to Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000.00) in cash (the “Consideration”) to be paid in one or more tranches by wire transfer to the account of the Company (each, a “Tranche”) with the first Tranche of $50,000 paid on the Issue Date (as defined in the Note), and the remainder pursuant to the terms described in the Note, the Purchaser agrees to subscribe for and purchase from the Company on the Closing Date (as defined below), and the Company agrees to issue and sell to the Purchaser the Note.

2. Closing and Delivery.

 

2.1 Closing Date. Subject to the satisfaction (or written waiver) of the conditions thereto set forth in Section 6 and Section 7 below, the date and time of the issuance and sale of the Note, pursuant to this Agreement (the “Closing Date”) shall be 10:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on the date first written above, or such other mutually agreed upon time.

2.3 Delivery. At the Closing, the Purchaser shall deliver the Consideration to the Company and the Company shall deliver the Note to the Purchaser.

 

3. Representations and Warranties of the Company. Except as set forth in the corresponding section of the Disclosure Schedule delivered to the Purchaser concurrently herewith and attached hereto as Schedule I (the “Disclosure Schedule”) or as disclosed in the Disclosure Materials (as defined below), the Company hereby makes the following representations and warranties as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date to the Purchaser:

 

3.1 Organization, Good Standing and Qualification. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries (as defined below) is a corporation or limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries has the requisite corporate power to own and operate its properties and assets and to carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries is duly qualified and is authorized to do business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation in all jurisdictions in which the nature of its activities and of its properties (both owned and leased) makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing, as the case may be, would not have or reasonably be expected to result in (i) a material adverse effect on the legality, validity or enforceability of any Subscription Document, (ii) a material adverse effect on the results of operations, assets, business or financial condition of the Company and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (iii) adversely impair the Company’s ability to perform in any material respect on a timely basis its obligations under any Subscription Document (any of (i), (ii) or (iii), a “Material Adverse Effect”).

 

3.2 Corporate Power. The Company has all requisite corporate power to execute and deliver this Agreement, to issue the Note and the other instruments, documents and agreements being entered into at the Closing (each a “Subscription Document” and, collectively, the “Subscription Documents”) and to carry out and perform its obligations under the terms of the Subscription Documents.

 

In addition, the Company has all requisite corporate power to execute and deliver such common stock purchase warrants (the “Warrants”), in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto, as may be required under this Agreement.

 

3.3 Subsidiaries and Affiliates. Section 3.3 of the Disclosure Schedule sets forth a true and correct description of all of the Company’s Subsidiaries and Affiliates and the capitalization (including options, warrants and other such equity), pro forma as of the date hereof reflecting all pending acquisitions. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Subsidiary” means, with respect to the Company, any corporation or other entity of which at least a majority of the outstanding shares of stock or other ownership interests having by the terms thereof ordinary voting power to elect a majority of the board of directors (or persons performing similar functions) of such corporation or entity (regardless of whether or not at the time, in the case of a corporation, stock of any other class or classes of such corporation shall have or might have voting power by reason of the happening of any contingency) is at the time directly or indirectly owned or controlled by the Company or one or more of its Affiliates and the term “Affiliate” means, as to any person (the “Subject Person”), any other person that directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries controls or is controlled by, or is under direct or indirect common control with, the Subject Person. For the purposes of this definition, “control” when used with respect to any person means the power to direct the management and policies of such person, directly or indirectly, whether through the ownership of voting securities, through representation on such person’s board of directors or other management committee or group, by contract or otherwise. All references contained herein to the terms Subsidiary or Affiliate, shall be applicable to all Subsidiaries and Affiliates whether they existed as of the date hereof or were created, acquired, or otherwise came to be included in the foregoing terms subsequent to the date hereof.

 

 

3.4 Authorization. All corporate action on the part of the Company, its directors and its stockholders necessary for the authorization of the Subscription Documents and the execution, delivery and performance of all obligations of the Company under the Subscription Documents, including, but not limited to, the issuance and delivery of the Note, any Warrants and the reservation of the equity securities issuable upon the conversion and/or exercise thereof (collectively, the “Underlying Securities”) has been taken or will be taken prior to the issuance of such Underlying Securities. The Subscription Documents, when executed and delivered by the Company, shall constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to laws of general application relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, the relief of debtors and, with respect to rights to indemnity, subject to federal and state securities laws. The Underlying Securities, when issued in compliance with the provisions of the Subscription Documents, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free of any liens, encumbrances, security interests or other adverse claim (a “Lien”) and issued in compliance with all applicable federal and securities laws.

 

3.5 Governmental Consents. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or registration with, any court or other foreign, federal, state, local or other governmental authority or other person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Subscription Documents, other than (a) applicable Blue Sky filings, (b) such as have already been obtained or such exemptive filings as are required to be made under applicable securities laws, (c) such other filings that have been made pursuant to applicable state securities laws and post-sale filings pursuant to applicable state and federal securities laws which the Company undertakes to file within the applicable time periods. Subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Purchaser set forth in Section 4 hereof, the Company has taken all action necessary to exempt: (i) the issuance and sale of the Note, (ii) the issuance of the Underlying Securities upon due conversion of the Note and (iii) the other transactions contemplated by the Subscription Documents from the provisions of any preemptive rights, stockholder rights plan or other “poison pill” arrangement, any anti-takeover, business combination or control share law or statute binding on the Company or to which the Company or any of its assets and properties may be subject and any provision of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, or other organizational documentation, as the case may be, that is or could reasonably be expected to become applicable to the Purchaser as a result of the transactions contemplated hereby, including without limitation, the issuance of the Note, any Warrants and the Underlying Securities (collectively, the “Securities”) and the ownership, disposition or voting of the Securities by the Purchaser or the exercise of any right granted to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement or the other Subscription Documents.

 

3.6 Compliance with Laws. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in violation of any applicable statute, rule, regulation, order or restriction of any domestic or foreign government or any instrumentality or agency thereof in respect of the conduct of its business or the ownership of its properties, which violation would materially and adversely affect the business, assets, liabilities, financial condition or operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

 

3.7 Compliance with Other Instruments. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in violation or default of any term of its organizational documents, or of any provision of any mortgage, indenture or contract to which it is a party and by which it is bound or of any judgment, decree, order or writ, other than such violations that would not individually or in the aggregate have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company. Except as set forth in Section 3.7 of the Disclosure Schedule or disclosed in SEC Reports (as defined herein), the execution, delivery and performance of the Subscription Documents, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Subscription Documents will not result in any such violation or be in conflict with, or constitute, with or without the passage of time and giving of notice, either a default under any such provision, instrument, judgment, decree, order or writ or an event that results in the creation of any Lien upon any assets of the Company or the suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture, or nonrenewal of any material permit, license, authorization or approval applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, its business or operations or any of its assets or properties. The sale of the Note and the subsequent issuance of the Underlying Securities are not and will not be subject to any preemptive rights or rights of first refusal that have not been properly waived or complied with.

 

 

3.8 Offering. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Purchaser contained in Section 4 hereof, the offer, issue, and sale of Securities are and will be exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act, and have been registered or qualified (or are exempt from registration and qualification) under the registration, permit, or qualification requirements of all applicable state securities laws.

 

No “bad actor” disqualifying event described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i)-(viii) of the Securities Act (a “Disqualification Event”) is applicable to the Company or, to the Company’s knowledge, any person listed in the first paragraph of Rule 506(d)(1) of the Securities Act, except for a Disqualification Event as to which Rule 506(d)(2)(ii-iv) or (d)(3), is applicable.

 

3.9 Capitalization. The Company has authorized shares as set forth in Section 3.9 of the Disclosure Schedule. All outstanding shares of capital stock are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and have been issued in compliance with all applicable securities laws. Except for the Equity Interests and the Underlying Securities or as otherwise listed in Section 3.9 of the Disclosure Schedule, there are no outstanding options, warrants, script rights to subscribe to, calls or commitments of any character whatsoever relating to, or securities, rights or obligations convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or giving any person any right to subscribe for or acquire, any shares of common stock, or contracts, commitments, understandings or arrangements by which the Company or any Subsidiary is or may become bound to issue additional shares of common stock, or securities or rights convertible or exchangeable into shares of common stock. Except as set forth in Section 3.9 of the Disclosure Schedule or disclosed in SEC Reports (as defined herein), there are no price based anti-dilution or price adjustment provisions contained in any security issued by the Company (or in any agreement providing rights to security holders) and the issue and sale of the Securities will not obligate the Company to issue shares of common stock or other securities to any person (other than the Purchaser) and will not result in a right of any holder of the Company’s securities to adjust the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price under such securities. Except as set forth in Section 3.9 of the Disclosure Schedule, the Company owns, directly or indirectly, all of the capital stock of each Subsidiary free and clear of any Liens, and all the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of each Subsidiary are validly issued and are fully paid, non-assessable and free of preemptive and similar rights.

As of their respective dates, the Disclosure Materials complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder, or the Alternative Reporting Standard as applicable, and none of the Disclosure Materials, when filed, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary, nor any director or officer thereof, is or has been the subject of any Action involving a claim of violation of or liability under federal or state securities laws or a claim of breach of fiduciary duty. There has not been, and to the knowledge of the Company, there is not pending or contemplated, any investigation by governmental authority, or any litigation civil or otherwise, involving the Company or any current or former director or officer of the Company or its Subsidiaries.

Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has violated in any material respect any laws, regulations, orders or contract terms, affecting the collective bargaining rights of employees, labor organizations or any laws, regulations or orders affecting employment discrimination, equal opportunity employment, or employees’ health, safety, welfare, wages and hours. No material labor dispute exists or, to the knowledge of the Company, is imminent with respect to any of the employees of the Company which could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

 

3.14 Regulatory Permits. The Company and the Subsidiaries possess all certificates, authorizations and permits issued by the appropriate federal, state, local or foreign regulatory authorities necessary to conduct their respective businesses, except where the failure to possess such permits would not have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect (“Material Permits”), and neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any Material Permit.

 

 

3.15 Title to Assets. Except as set forth in Section 3.15 of the Disclosure Schedule, the Company and the Subsidiaries have good and marketable title in fee simple to all real property owned by them that is material to the business of the Company and the Subsidiaries and good and marketable title in all personal property owned by them that is material to the business of the Company and the Subsidiaries, in each case free and clear of all Liens, except for Liens as do not materially affect the value of such property and do not materially interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property by the Company and the Subsidiaries and Liens for the payment of federal, state or other taxes, the payment of which is neither delinquent nor subject to penalties. Any real property and facilities held under lease by the Company and the Subsidiaries are held by them under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases of which the Company and the Subsidiaries are in compliance.

 

3.16 Taxes.

(b) Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to any tax-sharing agreement or similar arrangement with any other Person.

3.17 Patents and Trademarks. The Company and the Subsidiaries have, or have rights to use, all patents, patent applications, trademarks, trademark applications, service marks, trade names, copyrights, licenses and other similar rights that are necessary or material for use in connection with their respective businesses and which the failure to so have could have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect (collectively, the “Intellectual Property Rights”). Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received a written notice that the Intellectual Property Rights used by the Company or any Subsidiary violates or infringes upon the rights of any Person. All such Intellectual Property Rights are enforceable.

 

 

The Company and its Subsidiaries have taken reasonable steps to protect the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ rights in their Intellectual Property Rights and confidential information (the “Confidential Information”). Each employee, consultant and contractor who has had access to Confidential Information which is necessary for the conduct of the Company’s and each of its Subsidiaries’ respective businesses as currently conducted or as currently proposed to be conducted has executed an agreement to maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information and has executed appropriate agreements that are substantially consistent with the Company’s standard forms thereof. Except under confidentiality obligations, there has been no material disclosure of any of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ Confidential Information to any third party.

 

3.18 Environmental Matters.

The Company and the Subsidiaries are insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as are prudent and customary in the businesses in which the Company and the Subsidiaries are engaged. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has any reason to believe that it will not be able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its business without a significant increase in cost.

5. Further Agreements; Post-Closing Covenants.

 

5.1 Royalty. For purposes of this Section 5.1, the date on which Purchaser shall have delivered $150,000.00 under the Note is referred to as the “Partial Vesting Date”.

 

As further consideration for Purchaser’s entering into this Agreement, the Company agrees that it shall pay to Purchaser a royalty per unit of inventory (a “Unit”) sold (the “Royalty”), as follows:

 

(a) from the Issue Date (as defined in the Note) until the Partial Vesting Date, the Company shall accrue a Royalty in favor of Purchase of $5.00 per Unit and, within ten (10) business days from the Partial Vesting Date, the Company shall pay such accrued Royalty amount to Purchaser; and

 

(b) from and after the Partial Vesting Date, the Company shall pay a Royalty in favor of Purchaser of $5.00 per Unit; provided, however, that the Company’s obligation to pay a Royalty to Purchaser shall expire on the date that is six (6) months immediately following the date on which Purchaser shall have received Royalty payments equal to $345,000; provided, further, however, that, should Purchaser deliver less than all six (6) Tranches (the “Lesser Loan Amount”) contemplated in the Note, the Company’s obligation to pay a Royalty to Purchaser shall expire on the date that is six (6) months immediately following the date on which Purchaser shall have received Royalty payments equal to the Lesser Loan Amount.

 

Royalty amounts payable otherwise than pursuant to subparagraph (a) shall be payable to Purchaser on a calendar quarterly basis, within fifteen (15) days for the immediately preceding calendar quarter.

 

5.2 Ownership Dilution Protection. As further consideration for Purchaser’s entering into this Agreement, beginning on the Issue Date (as defined in the Note) and continuing through the date on which Purchaser shall have received payments equal to $345,000, either through cash repayments and/or conversions of the Note, (the “Anti-Dilution Period”), Purchaser shall be issued a (cashless) Warrant to purchase shares of Company common stock, as follows:

 

With respect to all shares of Company common stock issued as compensation (the “Compensation Shares”) to employees, consultants and/or advisors (each a “Relevant Person”) during the Anti-Dilution Period, Purchaser shall be issued a (cashless) Warrant to purchase a number of shares of Company common stock equal to twenty percent (20%) of the number of Compensation Shares issued to a Relevant Person.

 

By way of example only, should the Company issue 1,000,000 Compensation Shares to a Relevant Person during the Anti-Dilution Period, then the Company would issue a (cashless) Warrant to purchase 200,000 shares of Company common stock.

 

 

5.3 Security Agreement. As further consideration for Purchaser’s entering into this Agreement, the Company and Purchaser shall have entered into a separate Security Agreement.

 

5.4 Form D; Blue Sky Laws. The Company agrees to file a Form D with respect to the Securities as required under Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof to the Purchaser promptly after such filing. The Company shall take such action as the Company shall reasonably determine is necessary to qualify the Securities for sale to the Purchaser at the applicable closing pursuant to this Agreement under applicable securities or “blue sky” laws of the states of the United States (or to obtain an exemption from such qualification), and shall provide evidence of any such action so taken to the Purchaser on or prior to the initial closing.

 

5.5 Usury. To the extent it may lawfully do so, the Company hereby agrees not to insist upon or plead or in any manner whatsoever claim, and will resist any and all efforts to be compelled to take the benefit or advantage of, usury laws wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, in connection with any action or proceeding that may be brought by the Purchaser in order to enforce any right or remedy under the Note. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in the Note, it is expressly agreed and provided that the total liability of the Company under the Note for payments which under Nevada law are in the nature of interest shall not exceed the maximum lawful rate authorized under applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”), and, without limiting the foregoing, in no event shall any rate of interest or default interest, or both of them, when aggregated with any other sums which under Nevada law in the nature of interest that the Company may be obligated to pay under the Note exceed such Maximum Rate. It is agreed that if the maximum contract rate of interest allowed by Nevada law and applicable to the Note is increased or decreased by statute or any official governmental action subsequent to the date hereof, the new maximum contract rate of interest allowed by law will be the Maximum Rate applicable to the Note from the effective date thereof forward, unless such application is precluded by applicable law. If under any circumstances whatsoever, interest in excess of the Maximum Rate is paid by the Company to the Purchaser with respect to indebtedness evidenced by the Note, such excess shall be applied by the Purchaser to the unpaid principal balance of any such indebtedness or be refunded to the Company, the manner of handling such excess to be at the Purchaser’s election.

 

5.6 Legal Counsel Opinions. Upon the request of the Purchaser from to time to time, the Company shall be responsible (at its cost) for promptly supplying to the Company’s transfer agent and the Purchaser a customary legal opinion letter of its counsel (the “Legal Counsel Opinion”) to the effect that the resale of the Underlying Securities by the Purchaser or its affiliates, successors and assigns is exempt from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act pursuant to Rule 144 (provided the requirements of Rule 144 are satisfied and provided the Underlying Securities are not then registered under the 1933 Act for resale pursuant to an effective registration statement). Should the Company’s legal counsel fail for any reason to issue the Legal Counsel Opinion, the Purchaser may (at the Company’s cost) secure another legal counsel to issue the Legal Counsel Opinion, and the Company will instruct its transfer agent to accept such opinion. The Company shall not impede the removal by its stock transfer agent of the restricted legend from any common stock certificate upon receipt by the transfer agent of a Rule 144 Opinion Letter.

 

5.7 Listing. The Company will, for so long as the Purchaser owns any of the Securities, maintain the listing and trading of its common stock on its primary trading platform. The Company shall promptly provide to the Purchaser copies of any notices it receives regarding the continued eligibility of its common stock for listing on such quotation systems or exchanges.

5.9 Breach of Covenants. The Company acknowledges and agrees that if the Company breaches any covenants set forth in this Section, in addition to any other remedies available to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, it will be considered an Event of Default under Section 4.1 of the Note.

 

5.11 Further Assurances. The Purchaser agrees and covenants that at any time and from time to time it will execute and deliver to the Company such further instruments and documents and take such further action as the Company may reasonably require within three (3) business days of any such request in order to carry out the full intent and purpose of this Agreement and to comply with state or federal securities laws or other regulatory approvals.

Debtor authorizes the Secured Party to enter the premises where any of the Collateral is located, take and maintain possession of the Collateral, or any part thereof, and pay, purchase, contest or compromise any encumbrance, claim, right or lien which, in the reasonable opinion of the Secured Party, appears to be prior or superior to its security interest in violation of this Agreement, and to pay all reasonable expenses incurred in connection therewith.

 

(B) The Secured Party shall be automatically deemed to be granted a license or other appropriate right to use, without charge or representation or warranty, Debtor’s labels, patents, copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks and advertising matter, and any other property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing advertising for sale and selling any of the Collateral.

 

(C) The Secured Party may ship, store, finish, prepare for sale, advertise for sale and sell (in the manner provided for herein) the Collateral.

 

(D) The Secured Party may sell the Collateral at either a public or private sale, or both, for cash or on terms, in such manner and at such places (including Debtor’s premises) as is commercially reasonable (it not being necessary that the Collateral be present at any such sale) for the purposes of satisfying obligations under the Note.

 

(E) The Secured Party shall be entitled to give notice of the disposition of the Collateral as follows: (1) the Secured Party shall give Debtor a notice in writing of the time and place of public sale or, if the sale is a private sale or some other disposition other than a public sale is to be made of the Collateral, the time on or after which the private sale or other disposition is to be made, (2) the notice shall be personally delivered or mailed, postage prepaid, to Debtor at least ten (10) days before the date fixed for the sale, or at least ten (10) days before the date on or after which the private sale or other disposition is to be made.

 

(F) The Secured Party may purchase all or any portion of the Collateral at any public sale by credit bid or other appropriate payment therefor.

 

(G) The Secured Party shall have the following rights and remedies regarding the appointment of a receiver: (1) the Secured Party may have a receiver appointed as a matter of right, (2) the receiver may be an employee of the Secured Party and may serve without bond, and (3) all fees of the receiver and his or her attorney shall be Secured Party Expenses, with interest at the rate specified in the Note from the date of expenditure until repaid. Debtor acknowledges and agrees that the Secured Party shall have the rights with respect to the appointment of a receiver as described herein, even if such right is not statutorily provided under applicable law.

 

 

(H) The Secured Party, either itself or through a receiver, may collect the payments and revenues (together, “Revenue”) from the Collateral. The Secured Party may at any time, in its reasonable discretion, transfer any Collateral into its own name or that of its nominee(s) and receive the Revenue therefrom and hold the same as security for the payment of the Note.

 

(2) The Secured Party may deduct from the proceeds of any sale of the Collateral all Secured Party Expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement and exercise of any of the rights and remedies of the Secured Party provided for herein, irrespective of whether suit is commenced. Any deficiency which exists after disposition of the Collateral as provided herein will be paid immediately by Debtor, and any excess that exists will be returned, without interest and subject to the rights of third parties, to Debtor by the Secured Party.

 

(b) Rights and Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies of the Secured Party under this Agreement and the Note shall be cumulative. The Secured Party shall also have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as are provided under applicable law or in equity. No exercise by the Secured Party of any one right or remedy shall be deemed an election.

 

7. Additional Waivers. The Secured Party shall not in any way or manner be liable or responsible for (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral, (b) any loss or damage thereto occurring or arising in any manner or fashion from any cause, (c) any diminution in the value thereof or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, forwarding agency or other person whomsoever, except to the extent that such loss, damage, liability, cost or expense has resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Secured Party or its affiliates. If the Secured Party at any time has possession of any Collateral, whether before or after an Event of Default, the Secured Party shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral if the Secured Party takes such action for that purpose as Debtor shall request or as the Secured Party, in its reasonable discretion, shall deem appropriate under the circumstances, but failure to honor any request by Debtor shall not of itself be deemed to be a failure to exercise reasonable care. The Secured Party shall not be required to take any steps necessary to preserve any rights in the Collateral against prior parties, nor to protect, preserve or maintain any security interest given to secure the Obligations.

 

8. Notices. All notices or demands by any party relating to this Agreement shall be made in writing as provided in the Note, and such notices shall be delivered to the addresses indicated therein. Each party shall provide written notice to the other party of any change in address.

 

9. Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of Nevada, without giving effect to conflicts of laws principles. Each party to this Agreement hereby irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in California for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection with any transaction contemplated hereby, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof (certified or registered mail, return receipt requested) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law.

(a) Effectiveness. This Agreement shall be binding and deemed effective against Debtor when executed by Debtor and the Secured Party.

 

(b) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the successors and permitted endorsees, transferees and assigns of the Secured Party.

Warrant to Purchase __________ Shares of Common Stock

 

Issue Date: ____________

 

METALERT, INC.

 

Common Stock Purchase Warrant

 

This Common Stock Purchase Warrant (the “Warrant”) certifies that, for value received, Carl LaRue or its assigns (“Holder”) is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after the Issue Date set forth above (the “Initial Exercise Date”),

 

and until the earlier of (a) the date that is five years from the Initial Exercise Date and (b) the date that is six (6) months after the Full Vesting Date, as that term defined in the Purchase Agreement (defined below) (the “Termination Date”) but not thereafter, to subscribe for and purchase from MetAlert, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), up to __________ shares (as subject to adjustment hereunder) of Common Stock (the “Warrant Shares”). The purchase price of one share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be equal to the Exercise Price, as defined in Section 2(b).

 

1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of August 1, 2024, between the Company and Holder (the “Purchase Agreement”).

 

2. Exercise.

 

(a) Exercise of Warrant. Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Termination Date by delivery to the Company (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered Holder at the address of Holder appearing on the books of the Company) of a duly executed facsimile copy of the Notice of Exercise in the form annexed hereto and within three (3) Business Days of the date said Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company, the Company shall have received payment of the aggregate Exercise Price of the shares thereby purchased by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank. No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise form be required. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and this Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation within three (3) Business Days of the date the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise within one (1) Business Day of receipt of such notice. Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.

 

 

(b) Exercise Price. The aggregate exercise price of this Warrant, except for a nominal exercise price of $0.00001 per Warrant Share, was pre-funded to the Company on or prior to the Issue Date and, consequently, no additional consideration (other than the nominal exercise price of $0.00001 per Warrant Share) shall be required to be paid by the Holder to any person to effect any exercise of this Warrant. Holder shall not be entitled to the return or refund of all, or any portion, of such pre-paid aggregate exercise price under any circumstance or for any reason whatsoever, including in the event this Warrant shall not have been exercised prior to the Termination Date. The remaining unpaid exercise price per Warrant Share shall be $0.00001, subject to adjustment hereunder (the “Exercise Price”).

 

(c) Cashless Exercise. This Warrant may be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares equal to the number of Warrants Shares stated in the applicable Notice of Exercise. For purposes hereof, the cashless exercise price shall be deemed to be the VWAP¹ of the Common Stock on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise.

 

(c) Mechanics of Exercise.

 

(1) Delivery of Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. Within one (1) Business Day of receiving a Notice of Exercise, the Company shall have provided instructions to the Transfer Agent for the issuance of the Warrant Shares. Warrant Shares purchased hereunder shall be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to Holder by crediting the account of Holder’s prime broker with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by Holder or (B) the shares are eligible for resale by Holder without volume or manner-of-sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144, and otherwise by physical delivery to the address specified by Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that is two (2) Business Days after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”), provided that the Company shall not be obligated to deliver Warrant Shares hereunder unless the Company has received the aggregate Exercise Price on or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date. The Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been issued, and Holder or any other person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such shares for all purposes, as of the date the Warrant has been exercised, with payment to the Company of the Exercise Price and all taxes required to be paid by Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 2(c)(vi) prior to the issuance of such shares, having been paid.

 

(2) Delivery of New Warrants Upon Exercise. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request of a Holder and upon surrender of this Warrant certificate, at the time of delivery of the Warrant Shares, deliver to Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant.

 

¹“VWAP” means, for any date, the daily volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the trading market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (based on a trading day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time).

 

 

(3) Rescission Rights. If the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to Holder the Warrant Shares by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.

 

(4) No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall, at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Exercise Price or round up to the next whole share.

 

(5) Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of Warrant Shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such Warrant Shares shall be issued in the name of Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by Holder; provided, however, that in the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Exercise and all fees to the Depository Trust Company (or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions) required for same-day electronic delivery of the Warrant Shares.

 

(6) Closing of Books. The Company will not close its stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

(d) Holder’s Exercise Limitations. The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 2 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise as set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, Holder (together with Holder’s Affiliates, and any other persons acting as a group together with Holder or any of Holder’s Affiliates), would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Holder and its Affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, non-exercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by Holder or any of its Affiliates and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or non-converted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other Common Stock Equivalents) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by Holder or any of its Affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 2(d), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by Holder that the Company is not representing to Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 2(d) applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by Holder together with any Affiliates) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be Holder’s determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by Holder together with any Affiliates) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 2(d), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (A) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (C) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within two Business Days confirm orally and in writing to Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by Holder or its Affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. Holder, upon not less than 61 days’ prior notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 2(d). Any such increase or decrease will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 2(d) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.

 

 

3. Certain Adjustments.

 

(a) Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company upon exercise of the Warrants or the Note), (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues by reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then in each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant shall remain unchanged. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification.

 

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

 

 

(c) Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another person, (ii) the Company, directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or more of the outstanding Common Stock, (iv) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, or (v) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with another person or group of persons whereby such other person or group acquires more than 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (not including any shares of Common Stock held by the other person or other persons making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other persons making or party to, such stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination) (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent exercise of this Warrant, Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the option of Holder (without regard to any limitation in Section 2(d) on the exercise of this Warrant), the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation in Section 2(d) on the exercise of this Warrant). For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other transaction documents (the “Transaction Documents”) in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3(c) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Holder and approved by Holder (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of Holder, deliver to Holder in exchange for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant which is exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an exercise price which applies the exercise price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of shares of capital stock and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein.

 

(d) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 3 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section 3, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.

 

(e) Notice to Holder.

 

(1) Adjustment to Exercise Price. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 3, the Company shall promptly mail to Holder a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and any resulting adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

 

(2) Notice to Allow Exercise by Holder. If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Common Stock, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock, (C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property, or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be mailed to Holder at its last address as it shall appear upon the Warrant Register (defined below) of the Company, at least 20 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; provided that the failure to mail such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. To the extent that any notice provided hereunder constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K. Holder shall remain entitled to exercise this Warrant during the period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein.

 

 

4. Transfer of Warrant.

 

(a) Transferability. Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws and the conditions set forth in Section 4(d) hereof, this Warrant and all rights hereunder (including, without limitation, any registration rights) are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company or its designated agent, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable, and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company unless Holder has assigned this Warrant in full, in which case, Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company within three (3) Business Days of the date Holder delivers an assignment form to the Company assigning this Warrant full. The Warrant, if properly assigned in accordance herewith, may be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued.

 

(b) New Warrants. This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the Company, together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section 4(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance with such notice. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the Initial Exercise Date and shall be identical with this Warrant except as to the number of Warrant Shares issuable pursuant thereto.

 

(c) Warrant Register. The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the “Warrant Register”), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.

 

(d) Transfer Restrictions. If, at the time of the surrender of this Warrant in connection with any transfer of this Warrant, the transfer of this Warrant shall not be either (i) registered pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and under applicable state securities or blue sky laws or (ii) eligible for resale without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions or current public information requirements pursuant to Rule 144, the Company may require, as a condition of allowing such transfer, that Holder or transferee of this Warrant, as the case may be, comply with the provisions of Rule 144.

 

(e) Representation by Holder. Holder, by the acceptance hereof, represents and warrants that it is acquiring this Warrant and, upon any exercise hereof, will acquire the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, for its own account and not with a view to or for distributing or reselling such Warrant Shares or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law, except pursuant to sales registered or exempted under the Securities Act.

 

 

5. Miscellaneous.

 

(a) No Rights as Stockholder Until Exercise. This Warrant does not entitle Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 2(c)(i), except as expressly set forth in Section 3.

 

(b) Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of the Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.

 

(c) Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a Business Day, then, such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Business Day.

 

(d) Authorized Shares. The Company covenants that, during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of issuing the necessary Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Trading Market upon which the Common Stock may be listed. The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant and payment for such Warrant Shares in accordance herewith, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by the Company in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).

 

Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (ii) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.

 

Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.

 

(e) Governing Law; Jurisdiction. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be determined under Nevada Laws. This provision does not, nor is intended to, apply to claims under the Federal securities laws. This exclusive legal forum provision could add significant cost, discourage claims, and limits the ability of investors to bring a claim in a more favorable legal forum or jurisdiction. This provision does not apply to purchasers in secondary transactions.

 

(f) Restrictions. Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws.

 

 

(g) Non-waiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice Holder’s rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding the fact that all rights hereunder terminate on the Termination Date. If the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material damages to Holder, the Company shall pay to Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.

 

(h) Notices. Any notice, request or other document required or permitted to be given or delivered to Holder by the Company shall be delivered in accordance with the terms of this Warrant.

 

(i) Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of Holder, shall give rise to any liability of Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

 

(j) Remedies. Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive and not to assert the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.

 

(k) Successors and Assigns. Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder. The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of any Holder from time to time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by Holder or holder of Warrant Shares.

 

(l) Amendment. This Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company and Holder.

 

(m) Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.

 

(n) Headings. The headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant.

 

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Warrant to be executed by its officer thereunto duly authorized as of the Initial Exercise Date.
