Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On July 26, 2024, ProMIS Neurosciences Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an Unit Purchase Agreement (the “Unit Purchase Agreement”) with selected investors that qualify as “accredited investors” (the “PIPE Investors”), as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), for the purpose of raising $30.3 million in aggregate gross proceeds for the Company (the “Offering”) before deducting placement agent fees and other expenses payable by the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the Unit Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to sell to PIPE Investors in the Offering, an aggregate of (x) 9,757,669 common share units (the “Common Share Units”), each consisting of (i) one Common Share, without par value (a “Common Share”), (ii) one Tranche A Common Share purchase warrant to purchase one Common Share, (iii) one Tranche B Common Share purchase warrant to purchase one Common Share and (iv) one Tranche C Common Share purchase warrant to purchase one Common Share (each, a “Warrant”, collectively, the “Warrants”) and, for certain investors, (y) 4,371,027 pre-funded units (the “Pre-Funded Units” and together with the the Common Share Units, the “Units”), each consisting of (i) one Pre-Funded Warrant to purchase one Common Share (each, a “Pre-Funded Warrant”, collectively, the “Pre-Funded Warrants”, and the Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and the Pre-Funded Warrants, the “Warrant Shares”), (ii) one Tranche A Common Share purchase warrant to purchase one Common Share, (iii) one Tranche B Common Share purchase warrant to purchase one Common Share and (iv) one Tranche C Common Share purchase warrant to purchase one Common Share.

The purchase price for each Common Share Unit was $2.15 per Common Share Unit, and the purchase price for each Pre-Funded Unit was $2.14 per Pre-Funded Unit. The Pre-Funded Warrants have an exercise price of $0.01 per Warrant Share, are immediately exercisable and will expire when exercised in full. The Tranche A Common Share purchase warrants have an exercise price of $2.02, for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $28.5 million, are exercisable immediately upon Shareholder Approval (as defined below) and will expire upon the earlier of (i) 18 months or (ii) within 60 days of the Tranche A Milestone Event (as defined below). The Tranche B Common Share purchase warrants have an exercise price of $2.02, for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $28.5 million, are exercisable immediately upon Shareholder Approval (as defined below)  and will expire upon the earlier of (i) 30 months or (ii) within 60 days of the Tranche B Milestone Event (as defined below). The Tranche C Common Share purchase warrants have an exercise price of $2.50, for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $35.3 million, are immediately exercisable and will expire July 31, 2029. The final closing of the sales of the Units pursuant to the Unit Purchase Agreement is expected to occur on July 31, 2024 (the “Closing Date”). The aggregate gross proceeds to the Company from the Offering are expected to be $30.3 million before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses and up to an additional $92.4 million in gross proceeds if the Warrants are fully exercised for cash, subject to Shareholder Approval of certain of the Warrants. For purposes of the foregoing, “Tranche A Milestone Event” means the public announcement via press release or the filing of a Current Report on Form 8-K of 6-month data from the cohorts treated with single ascending doses of PMN310, and “Tranche B Milestone Event” means the public announcement via press release or the filing of a Current Report on Form 8-K of 12-month data from the cohorts treated with single ascending doses of PMN310. Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), the exercise of the Tranche A and Tranche B Common Share purchase warrants is subject to shareholder approval (the “Shareholder Approval”). The Company has agreed to convene a shareholders’ meeting, or otherwise obtain written Shareholder Approval, on or before 90 days following the Closing Date, to obtain such approval.

Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with the Unit Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with each of the PIPE Investors (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company is required to prepare and file a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Act, covering the resale of the Common Shares issued to the PIPE Investors under the Unit Purchase Agreement, together with the Warrant Shares. The Company is required to file the Registration Statement with the SEC within 35 days after the date of the final closing of the Offering (the “Filing Date”) and is required to have the Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC within 45 days after the Filing Date (which deadline will be increased by an additional 30 days in the event the SEC notifies the Company in writing that it will conduct a review of the Registration Statement).

The foregoing descriptions of the material terms of the Unit Purchase Agreement, the Pre-Funded Warrants, the Warrants and the Registration Rights Agreement, do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full texts of the Form of Unit Purchase Agreement, the Form of Pre-Funded Warrant, Form of Tranche A Common Share purchase warrant, the Form of Tranche B Common Share purchase warrant, Form of Tranche C Common Share

purchase warrant and the Form of Registration Rights Agreement, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 10.1, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4 and 10.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Report”) and are incorporated herein by reference.

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities.

The information contained in Item 1.01 relating to the Offering is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02.

The Units, Common Shares, the Pre-Funded Warrants, the Warrants and Warrant Shares, are being sold and/or issued without registration under the Securities Act in reliance on the exemption provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act as a transaction not involving a public offering and/or Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated thereunder as well as available exemptions under applicable state securities laws.

Item 8.01 Other Information.

On July 26, 2024, the Company issued a press release announcing the pricing of the Offering. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Series 2 Preferred Shares Conversion

As previously disclosed in the Current Report Form 8-K filed by the Company with the SEC on December 8, 2023, the Company filed articles of amendment to create a new class of Series 2 Preferred Shares (the “Series 2 Preferred Shares”). All outstanding Series 2 Preferred Shares convert into 1,166,667 fully paid non-assessable Common Shares at the effective conversion rate upon the closing of a sale of equity securities or securities convertible into equity securities in one singular financing, including a financing with multiple tranches in which any subsequent tranches are closed within 18 months of the initial closing, which financing results in at least $14 million of gross proceeds to the Company (the “Mandatory Conversion Event”). The Offering is a Mandatory Conversion Event and all of the Company’s outstanding Series 2 Preferred Shares will automatically convert into Common Shares at the effective conversion rate.

By executing this Agreement, the Purchaser further represents that the Purchaser does not presently have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any Person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such Person or to any third Person, with respect to any of the Securities. The Purchaser has not been formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Securities.

The Purchaser acknowledges that the Company has no obligation to register or qualify the Securities for resale except as set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement. The Purchaser further acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various requirements including, but not limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Securities, and on requirements relating to the Company which are outside of the Purchaser’s control, and which the Company is under no obligation and may not be able to satisfy. The Purchaser also understands that the Securities have not been, and will not be, qualified for distribution by prospectus under the securities laws of any province or territory of Canada and will not be offered or sold in Canada during the course of their distribution except pursuant to a Canadian prospectus or prospectus exemption under National Instrument 45-106 Prospectus and Registration Exemptions.

The Purchaser fiduciary of the Plan (a) is responsible for the decision to invest in the Company; (b) is independent of the Company or any of its affiliates; (c) is qualified to make such investment decision; and (d) in making such decision, the fiduciary of the Plan has not relied primarily on any advice or recommendation of the Company or any of its affiliates.

3


(a)Mandatory Registration.

The registration rights under this Section 2 shall not apply or be available with respect to securities of the Company held by affiliates (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) and related persons (as defined in Rule 404 under the Securities Act) of the Placement Agents or the officers and directors of the Company and their affiliates.

(b)Allocation of Registrable Securities. The initial number of Registrable Securities included in any Registration Statement and any increase in the number of Registrable Securities included therein shall be allocated pro rata among the Holders based on the number of Registrable Securities held by each Holder at the time the Registration Statement covering such initial number of Registrable Securities or increase thereof is declared effective by the SEC. In the event that a Holder sells or otherwise transfers any of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in accordance with the Purchase Agreement, each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of the then remaining number of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement for such transferor. Any Shares included in a Registration Statement and which remain allocated to any Person which ceases to hold any Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement shall be allocated to the remaining Holders, pro rata based on the number of Registrable Securities then held by such Holders which are covered by such Registration Statement. In no event shall the Company include any securities other than Registrable Securities on any Registration Statement without the prior written consent of the Majority Holders.

(c)(1) if the Commission allows the Registration Statement to be declared effective, subject to the withdrawal of certain Registrable Securities from the Registration Statement, and the reason is the Commission’s determination that (x) the offering of any of the Registrable Securities constitutes a primary offering of securities by the Company, (y) Rule 415 may not be relied upon for the registration of the resale of any or all of the Registrable Securities, and/or (z) a Holder of any Registrable Securities must be named as an underwriter, the Holders understand and agree the Company may reduce, on a pro rata basis, the total number of Registrable Securities to be registered on behalf of each such Holder; provided, that if the Commission or another regulatory agency requests that a Purchaser be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement, Purchaser will have the opportunity to withdraw from the Registration Statement upon its prompt written request to the Company. In any such pro rata reduction, the number of Registrable Securities to be registered on such Registration Statement will be reduced (i) first, by the Registrable Securities represented by the Warrant Shares (applied, in the case that some Warrant Shares may be registered, to the Holders on a pro rata basis based on the total number of unregistered Warrant Shares held by such Holders on a fully diluted basis), and (ii) second, by the Registrable Securities represented by Shares (applied, in the case that some Shares may be registered, to the Holders on a pro rata basis based on the total number of unregistered Shares). In addition, any such affected Holder shall be entitled to Piggyback Registration rights after the Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission until such time as: (AA) all Registrable Securities have been registered pursuant to an effective registration statement, (BB) the Registrable Securities may be resold without restriction pursuant to Rule 144, or (CC) the Holder agrees to be named as an underwriter in any such registration statement; and

(2)For not more than fifteen (15) consecutive days or for a total of not more than forty-five (45) days in any twelve (12) month period, the Company may suspend the use of any prospectus included in any Registration Statement contemplated by this Section in the event that the Company determines in good faith that such suspension is necessary to (A) delay the disclosure of MNPI concerning the Company, the disclosure of which at the time is not, in the good faith opinion of the Company, in the best interests of the Company or (B) amend or supplement the affected Registration Statement or the related prospectus so that (i) such Registration Statement shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (ii) such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, including in connection with the filing of a post-effective

4


amendment to such Registration Statement in connection with the Company’s filing of an Annual Report on Form 10-K for any fiscal year (an “Allowed Delay”); provided, that the Company shall promptly (a) notify each Holder in writing of the commencement of an Allowed Delay, but shall not (without the prior written consent of a Holder) disclose to such Holder any MNPI giving rise to an Allowed Delay, (b) advise the Holders in writing to cease all sales under the Registration Statement until the end of the Allowed Delay and (c) use commercially reasonable efforts to terminate an Allowed Delay as promptly as practicable.

(3)Notwithstanding the registration obligations set forth in this Section 2(c), if the Commission informs the Company that all of the Registrable Securities cannot, as a result of the application of Rule 415, be registered for resale as a secondary offering on a single registration statement, the Company agrees to promptly inform each of the Holders thereof and use its commercially reasonable efforts to file amendments to the Initial Registration Statement as required by the Commission, covering the maximum number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered by the Commission, on Form S-3 or such other form available to register for resale the Registrable Securities as a secondary offering.

(d)Piggyback Registration Rights. In addition to the Company’s agreement pursuant to Section 2(a) above, if the Company shall, at any time during the Effectiveness Period or as contemplated pursuant to Section 2(c)(1), determine (i) to register for sale any of its Common Shares in an underwritten offering, or (ii) to file a registration statement covering the resale of any Common Shares held by any of its shareholders (other than the registration contemplated in Section 2(a) above), the Company shall provide written notice to the Holders, which notice shall be provided no less than fifteen (15) calendar days prior to the filing of such applicable registration statement (the “Company Notice”). In that event, the right of any Holder to include the Registrable Securities in such a registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s written request to participate which shall be delivered to the Company within ten (10) calendar days after the Company Notice, as well as such Holder’s participation in such underwriting (if applicable, for purposes of this paragraph) and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to sell any of their Registrable Securities through such underwriting shall (together with the Company and any other shareholders of the Company selling their securities through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter selected for such underwriting. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the underwriter determines that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of Common Shares or the amount of other securities to be underwritten, the underwriter may exclude some or all Registrable Securities from such registration and underwriting. The Company shall so advise all Holders (except those Holders who failed to timely elect to include their Registrable Securities through such underwriting or have indicated to the Company their decision not to do so), and indicate to each such Holder the number of Registrable Securities that may be included in the registration and underwriting, if any. The number of Registrable Securities to be included in such registration and underwriting shall be allocated first to the Company, then to all other selling shareholders, including the Holders, who have requested to sell in the registration on a pro rata basis according to the number of shares requested to be included therein. If any Holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, such Holder may elect to withdraw such Holder’s Registrable Securities therefrom by delivering a written notice to the Company and the underwriter. A Holder with Registrable Securities included in any registration shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of such securities as shall be required in order to comply with any applicable law or regulation in connection with the registration of such Holder’s Registrable Securities or any qualification or compliance with respect to such Holder’s Registrable Securities and referred to in this Agreement. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it before the effective date of such registration, whether or not any Holder has elected to include Registrable Securities in such registration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to register any Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2(d) that are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 without restriction (including, without limitation, volume restrictions) or that are the subject of a then-effective Registration Statement. The Company may postpone or withdraw the filing or the effectiveness of a Piggyback Registration at any time in its sole discretion.

(e)Liquidated Damages Following a Registration Default. If a Registration Default occurs, then the Company will make payments to each Holder of Registrable Securities, as liquidated damages for the amount of damages to such Holder by reason thereof, at a rate equal to 1.0% of the aggregate purchase price paid by such Holder in connection with his or her purchase of Units in the Offering for each full period of 30 days of the Registration Default Period (which shall be pro-rated for any period less than 30 days). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the maximum amount of liquidated damages that may be paid to any Holder pursuant to this Section 2(e) shall be an

5


amount equal to 6% of the aggregate purchase price paid by such Holder in the Offering for the Registrable Securities held by such Holder at the time of the first occurrence of a Registration Default. Each such payment shall be due and payable within five (5) Business Days after the end of each full 30-day period of the Registration Default Period until the termination of the Registration Default Period and within five (5) Business Days after such termination. Such payments shall constitute the Holder’s exclusive remedy for any damages resulting from a Registration Default. If the Company fails to pay any partial liquidated damages pursuant to this Section 2(e) in full within seven (7) Business Days after the date payable, the Company will pay interest thereon at a rate of 12% per annum (or such lesser maximum amount that is permitted to be paid by applicable law) to the Holder, accruing daily from the date such partial liquidated damages are due until such amounts, plus all such interest thereon, are paid in full. The Registration Default Period shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the filing of the Registration Statement (if the Registration Default was triggered by clause (a) of the definition thereof), (ii) the Effective Date (if the Registration Default was triggered by clause (b) of the definition thereof), (iii) the ability of the Holder to effect sales pursuant to the Registration Statement (if the Registration Default was triggered by clause (c) of the definition thereof and not excused pursuant to the proviso in the definition thereof or pursuant to Section 2(c)), and (iv) the listing or inclusion and/or trading of the Common Shares on an Approved Market, as the case may be (if the Registration Default was triggered by clause (d) of the definition thereof). The amounts payable as liquidated damages pursuant to this Section 2(e) shall be payable in lawful money of the United States.

3.Registration Procedures for Registrable Securities. The Company will keep each Holder reasonably advised as to the filing and effectiveness of the Registration Statement. At its expense with respect to the Registration Statement, the Company will:

(a)prepare and file with the Commission with respect to the Registrable Securities, a Registration Statement on Form S-3 or any other form for which the Company then qualifies or which counsel for the Company shall deem appropriate and which form shall be available for the sale of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended methods of distribution thereof, and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and remain effective during the Effectiveness Period. After the Effectiveness Period, the Company shall be entitled to withdraw such Registration Statement and the Holders shall have no further right to offer or sell any of the Registrable Securities registered for resale thereon pursuant to the Registration Statement (or any prospectus relating thereto);

(b)if the Registration Statement is subject to review by the Commission, respond in a commercially reasonable manner to all comments and diligently pursue resolution of any comments to the satisfaction of the Commission;

(e)use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify such registration under such other applicable securities laws of such jurisdictions as any Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement reasonably requests and as may be necessary for the marketability of the Registrable Securities (such request to be made by the Effective Date or such other time the applicable registration statement is deemed effective by the Commission) and to do any and all other acts and things reasonably necessary to enable such Holder to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder; provided, that the Company shall not be required to (i) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not

6


otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 3(e), (ii) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (iii) consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction;

(f)notify each Holder of Registrable Securities, the disposition of which requires delivery of a prospectus relating thereto under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event (as promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event), which comes to the Company’s attention, that will after the occurrence of such event cause the prospectus included in such Registration Statement, if not amended or supplemented, to contain an untrue statement of a material fact or an omission to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and the Company shall promptly thereafter prepare and furnish or make available to such Holder a supplement or amendment to such prospectus (or prepare and file appropriate reports under the Exchange Act) so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus shall not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, unless suspension of the use of such prospectus otherwise is authorized herein or in the event of a Blackout Period or an Allowed Delay, in which case no supplement or amendment need be furnished (or Exchange Act filing made) until the termination of such suspension or Blackout Period or Allowed Delay;

(g)comply, and continue to comply during the Effectiveness Period, in all material respects with the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement;

(h)as promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, notify each Holder of Registrable Securities being offered or sold pursuant to the Registration Statement of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of the Registration Statement;

(i)use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be listed on such Approved Market on which securities of the same class or series issued by the Company are then listed;

(j)provide a transfer agent and registrar, which may be a single entity, for the Common Shares registered hereunder;

(k)cooperate with the Holders to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates, direct registration system account statements (“DRS Statements”), or electronic book entry positions representing Registrable Securities to be delivered to a transferee pursuant to the Registration Statement, which certificates, DRS Statements or electronic book entry positions shall be free, if and to the extent permitted by applicable law, of all restrictive legends, and to enable such Registrable Securities to be in such denominations and registered in such names as any such Holders may request;

(l)subject to this Section 3(l), at its sole expense and upon appropriate notice to and receipt by the Company of documentation from a Holder (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company) stating that the Holder intends to begin to sell or transfer the Registrable Securities pursuant to the plan of distribution set forth in an effective Registration Statement, use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and deliver certificates or evidence of book-entry positions representing the Registrable Securities to be delivered to a transferee pursuant to such Registration Statement, which certificates or book-entry positions shall be free of any Securities Act restrictive legend and in such denominations and registered in such names as such Holder may request. Further, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts, at its sole expense, to cause its legal counsel to (i) issue to the Transfer Agent and maintain a “blanket” legal opinion or direction letter instructing the Transfer Agent that, in connection with the contemplated sale or transfer of Registrable Securities by a Holder pursuant to and in accordance with the plan of distribution set forth in an effective Registration Statement in which such Holder is a named selling shareholder, and upon receipt of a seller representation letter and/or a broker representation letter reasonably acceptable to the Company and other such documentation as the Company’s legal counsel deems reasonably necessary and appropriate and after confirming compliance with relevant prospectus delivery requirements or exemptions therefrom, the Transfer Agent is authorized to remove the Securities Act restrictive legend in connection with such sale or transfer and (ii) if such Registration Statement is not then effective or is otherwise not available to effect sales or transfers of the Registrable Securities, and in connection with a proposed sale or transfer of Registrable Securities by a Holder pursuant to and in

7


accordance with an exemption from the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act, issue to the Transfer Agent a legal opinion or direction letter in connection with such sale or transfer instructing the Transfer Agent to remove any restrictive Securities Act legend, upon receipt by the Company and its legal counsel of a seller representation letter and/or a broker representation letter reasonably acceptable to the Company and other such documentation as the Company’s legal counsel deems reasonably necessary and appropriate; provided, that in the case of a request to remove such Securities Act restrictive legends in connection with a contemplated sale or transfer of Registrable Securities pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to direct the Company’s transfer agent to remove any such legends in connection with such sale or transfer within two (2) Business Days following receipt of all required notice and documentation from the Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at its sole expense and upon appropriate notice to and receipt by the Company of documentation from a Holder (in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, including receipt by the Company of a Holder representation letter and a broker (which broker may be as provided by Holder) representation letter) stating that Registrable Securities have been registered pursuant to a Registration Statement that has been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to (x) prepare and deliver certificates or evidence of book-entry positions representing the Registrable Securities to be delivered to a transferee pursuant to such Registration Statement, which certificates or book-entry positions shall be free of any Securities Act restrictive legend and in such denominations and registered in such names as such Holder may request, and (y) cause its legal counsel to issue to the Transfer Agent a legal opinion or direction letter instructing the transfer agent that it is authorized to remove the Securities Act restrictive legend applicable to such Holder’s Registrable Securities. The Company shall be responsible for the fees of its Transfer Agent, its legal counsel and all Depositary Trust Company (“DTC”) fees associated with any legend removal requests under this Section 3(l); and

(m)take all other reasonable actions necessary to expedite and facilitate the disposition by the Holders of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement.

4.Suspension of Offers and Sales. Each Holder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(f) hereof or of the commencement of a Blackout Period or an Allowed Delay, such Holder shall discontinue the disposition of Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement until such Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3(f) hereof or notice of the end of the Blackout Period or Allowed Delay, and, if so directed by the Company, such Holder shall deliver to the Company (at the Company’s expense) all copies (including, without limitation, any and all drafts), other than permanent file copies, then in such Holder’s possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice.

5.Registration Expenses. The Company shall pay all expenses in connection with any registration obligation provided herein, including, without limitation, all registration, filing, stock exchange fees, printing expenses, all fees and expenses of complying with applicable securities laws, the reasonable fees and expenses, not to exceed $20,000 of one special counsel for the selling Holders and the fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and of its independent accountants; provided, that, in any registration, each party shall pay for its own underwriting discounts and commissions and transfer taxes. Except as provided in this Section 5 and Section 8, the Company shall not be responsible for the expenses of any attorney or other advisor employed by a Holder.

6.Assignment of Rights. The rights under this Agreement shall be assignable by the Holders to any transferee of all or any portion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities if: (i) the transfer of the Registrable Securities is permitted under the terms of the Purchase Agreement and, if required under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Holder has furnished to the Company an opinion of counsel in a form satisfactory to the Company that such transfer is exempt from or not subject to registration under the Securities Act; (ii) the Holder agrees in writing with the transferee or assignee to assign such rights, and a copy of such agreement is furnished to the Company within a reasonable time after such assignment; (iii) the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer or assignment, furnished with written notice of (a) the name and address of such transferee or assignee, and (b) the Registrable Securities with respect to which such registration rights are being transferred or assigned and (iii) immediately following such transfer or assignment the further disposition of such Registrable Securities by the transferee or assignee is restricted under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws; (iv) at or before the time the Company receives the written notice contemplated by clause (ii) of this sentence the transferee or assignee agrees in writing with the Company to be bound by all of the provisions contained herein.

8


7.Information by Holder. A Holder with Registrable Securities included in any registration shall furnish to the Company (and any managing underwriter(s), where applicable) such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it, the intended method of disposition of such Registrable Securities, and such other information as shall be required in order to comply with any applicable law or regulation in connection with the registration of such Holder’s Registrable Securities or any qualification or compliance with respect to such Holder’s Registrable Securities and referred to in this Agreement.

8.Indemnification.

(a)In the event of the offer and sale of Registrable Securities under the Securities Act, the Company shall, and hereby does, indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, each Holder, its directors, officers, partners, each other person who participates as an underwriter in the offering or sale of such securities, and each other person, if any, who controls or is under common control with such Holder or any such underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, and expenses to which the Holder or any such director, officer, partner or underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or any other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (1), in the case of any registration statement prepared and filed by the Company under which Registrable Securities were registered under the Securities Act, if such registration statement contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or (2) in the case of any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or prospectus supplement contained in such registration statement, or any amendment or supplement thereto, if such preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or prospectus supplement includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or any violation or alleged violation of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law in connection with this Agreement; and the Company shall reimburse the Holder, and each such director, officer, partner, underwriter and controlling person for any documented legal or any other documented expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating, defending or settling any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action or proceeding; provided, that such indemnity agreement found in this Section 8(a) shall in no event exceed the net proceeds from the Offering received by the Company; and provided further, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case (i) to a Holder to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) or expense arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement in or omission from such registration statement, any such preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, prospectus supplement, amendment or supplement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Holder specifically for use in the preparation thereof or (ii) if the person asserting any such loss, claim, damage, liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) who purchased the Registrable Securities that are the subject thereof did not receive a copy of the preliminary prospectus or the final prospectus (or the final prospectus as amended or supplemented) at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of such Registrable Securities to such person because of the failure of such Holder or underwriter to so provide such preliminary or final prospectus and the untrue statement or omission of a material fact made in such preliminary prospectus was corrected in the amended preliminary or final prospectus (or the final prospectus as amended or supplemented). Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Holders, or any such director, officer, partner, underwriter or controlling person and shall survive the transfer of such shares by the Holder.

(b)As a condition to including Registrable Securities in any registration statement filed pursuant to this Agreement, each Holder agrees to be bound by the terms of this Section 8 and to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company, its directors and officers, and each other person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, to which the Company or any such director or officer or controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or any other federal or state law, to the extent arising out of or based solely upon: (x) such Holder’s failure to comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act or (y)(1), in the case of any registration statement prepared and filed by the Company under which Registrable Securities were registered under the Securities Act, if such registration statement contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or (2) in the case of any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or prospectus supplement contained in such

9


registration statement, or any amendment or supplement thereto, such preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or prospectus supplement includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (i) to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission referred to in (y)(1) or (y)(2) above is contained in any information so furnished in writing by such Holder to the Company specifically for inclusion in the registration statement or such prospectus or (ii) to the extent that (1) such untrue statements or omissions referred to in (y)(1) or (y)(2) above are based solely upon information regarding such Holder furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein, or to the extent that such information relates to such Holder or such Holder’s proposed method of distribution of Registrable Securities and was reviewed and expressly approved in writing by such Holder for use in the Registration Statement, such prospectus or such form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or (2) in the case of an occurrence of an event of the type specified in Section 3(f) hereof, the use by such Holder of an outdated or defective prospectus after the Company has notified such Holder in writing that the prospectus is outdated or defective and prior to the receipt by such Holder of the advice contemplated in Section 3(f). Each Holder’s obligation to indemnify shall be individual, not joint and several, and in no event shall the liability of any selling Holder hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

(c)Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding involving a claim referred to in this Section (including any governmental action), such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party, give written notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement of such action; provided, that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under this Section, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. In case any such action is brought against an indemnified party, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof, unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties arises in respect of such claim after the assumption of the defenses thereof or the indemnifying party fails to defend such claim in a diligent manner. If, in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties arises in respect of such claim after the assumption of the defenses thereof, the indemnified party (together with all other indemnified parties that may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the reasonable and documented fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action or proceeding effected without its consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement, unless such consent to entry of judgment or settlement includes as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, and without limiting any of the rights set forth above, in any event any party shall have the right to retain, at its own expense, counsel with respect to the defense of a claim.

(d)If an indemnifying party does or is not permitted to assume the defense of an action pursuant to Section 8(c) or in the case of the expense reimbursement obligation set forth in Sections 8(a) and (b), the indemnification required by Sections 8(a) and 8(b) shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills received or expenses, losses, damages, or liabilities are incurred provided that the indemnifying party is provided appropriate and reasonably detailed documentation.

(e)If the indemnification provided for in Section 8(a) or 8(b) is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense referred to herein, the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party hereunder, shall (i) contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense as is appropriate to reflect the proportionate relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other (determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or

10


prevent such untrue statement or omission), or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law or provides a lesser sum to the indemnified party than the amount hereinafter calculated, not only the proportionate relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, but also the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. No indemnified party guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any indemnifying party who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

9.Rule 144. If and when Rule 144 and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Holders to sell the Registrable Securities to the public without registration may become available, the Company agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to: (i) to make and keep public information available as those terms are understood in Rule 144; (ii) to file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required to be filed by an issuer of securities registered under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act pursuant to Rule 144; (iii) as long as any Holder owns any Registrable Securities, to furnish in writing upon such Holder’s request a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 (and, if applicable, of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act), and to furnish to such Holder a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company as may be reasonably requested in availing such Holder of any rule or regulation of the SEC permitting the selling of any such Registrable Securities without registration; (iv) with respect to the sale of any Registrable Securities by a Holder pursuant to Rule 144 and subject to such Holder providing necessary documentation that meet the requirements of Rule 144, to promptly furnish, without any charge to such Holder, a written legal opinion of its counsel to facilitate such sale and, if necessary, instruct its transfer agent in writing that it may rely on said written legal opinion of counsel with respect to said sale; and (v) undertake any additional actions reasonably necessary to maintain the availability of Rule 144.

10.Independent Nature of Each Purchaser’s Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Purchaser under this Agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and each Purchaser shall not be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under this Agreement. Nothing contained herein and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute such Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture, or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

11.Miscellaneous.

(a)Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, 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 to such party at the address for such 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. If any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement in that jurisdiction or the validity or enforceability of any provision of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

11


(b)Remedies. In the event of a breach by the Company or by a Holder of any of their respective obligations under this Agreement, each Holder or the Company, as the case may be, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law and under this Agreement, including recovery of damages, shall be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. The Company and each Holder agree that monetary damages would not provide adequate compensation for any losses incurred by reason of a breach by it of any of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby further agrees that, in the event of any action for specific performance in respect of such breach, it shall not assert or shall waive the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

(c)Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors, permitted transferees and assignees, executors and administrators of the parties hereto.

(d)No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company has not entered, as of the date hereof, and shall not enter, on or after the date of this Agreement, into any agreement with respect to its securities that would have the effect of impairing the rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof.

(e)Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the full and entire understanding and agreement between the parties with regard to the subjects hereof.

(f)Notices, etc. All notices or other communications which are required or permitted under this Agreement shall be in writing and sufficient if delivered by hand, by facsimile transmission, by registered or certified mail, postage pre-paid, by electronic mail, or by courier or overnight carrier, to the persons at the addresses set forth below (or at such other address as may be provided hereunder), and shall be deemed to have been delivered as of the date so delivered:

(g)Delays or Omissions. No delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any Holder, upon any breach or default of the Company under this Agreement, shall impair any such right, power or remedy of such Holder nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of any similar breach or default thereunder occurring; nor shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any Holder of any breach or default under this Agreement, or any waiver on the part of any Holder of any provisions or conditions of this Agreement, must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be enforceable against the parties actually executing such counterparts, and all of which together shall constitute one instrument.

(i)Severability. In the case any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

(j)Amendments. The provisions of this Agreement may be amended at any time and from time to time, and particular provisions of this Agreement may be waived, with and only with an agreement or consent in writing signed by the Company and the Majority Holders, provided that no such amendment or wavier shall impact any Holder or Holders disproportionately without their written consent.

DURATION AND EXERCISE OF WARRANTS

(a)Exercise Period. Commencing on the Issuance Date, the Holder may exercise this Warrant in whole or in part on any Business Day on or before 11:59 P.M., Eastern Time, on the Expiration Date, at which time this Warrant shall become void and of no value.

(b)Exercise Procedures.

(i)While this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable in accordance with Section 1(a), in addition to the manner set forth in Section 1(b)(ii) below, the Holder may exercise this Warrant in whole or in part at any time and from time to time by delivery to the Company of a duly executed copy of the Notice of Exercise attached as Exhibit A (the “Notice of Exercise”). Within the earlier of (i) two (2) Trading Days and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period (as defined below) following the date of exercise as aforesaid (the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”), the Holder shall deliver the aggregate Exercise Price for the shares specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank unless the cashless exercise procedure specified in Section 1(b)(ii) below is specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise. No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise be required. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation as soon as reasonably practicable of the date on which 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. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise within one (1) Business Day of receipt of such notice. As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary trading market with respect to the Common Stock as in effect on the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise.


(ii)The Holder may, in its sole discretion, exercise all or any part of the Warrant in a “cashless” or “net-issue” exercise (a “Cashless Exercise”) by delivering to the Company a Notice of Exercise, in which case, the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder upon such exercise shall be calculated using the following formula:

 

X       =

Y * (A - B)

 

 

 

A

 

with: 

X =

the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder

Y =

the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which the Warrant is being exercised

A =

the fair value per Common Share on the date of exercise of this Warrant

B =

the then-current Exercise Price of the Warrant

Solely for the purposes of this paragraph, “fair value” per Common Share shall mean the Closing Price (as defined below) per Common Share for the Trading Day immediately preceding the date on which the Notice of Exercise is deemed to have been sent to the Company. “Closing Price” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies:  (a) if the Common Shares are then listed on a U.S. national securities exchange, the closing price per Common Share for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the primary exchange in the United States on which the Common Shares are then listed; (b) if prices for the Common Shares are then quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board or any tier of the OTC Markets in the United States, the closing bid price per Common Share for such date (or the nearest preceding date) so quoted; or (c) if prices for the Common Shares are then reported in the “Pink Sheets” published by the National Quotation Bureau Incorporated (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices) in the United States, the most recent closing bid price per share of the Common Shares so reported. If the Common Shares are not publicly traded as set forth above, the “fair value” per Common Share shall be reasonably and in good faith determined by the board of directors of the Company (the “Board of Directors”) as of the date which the Notice of Exercise is deemed to have been sent to the Company.

For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a Cashless Exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for such shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant was originally issued.

(iii Upon the exercise of this Warrant in compliance with the provisions of this Section 1(b), the Company shall cause the Warrant Shares purchased hereunder to be transmitted by the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company (the


DTC”) through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”), if the Transfer Agent is then a participant in such system, and either (A) there is an effective and available registration statement permitting the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder (as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement) and the Holder has contracted for such a resale, or (B) the Warrant Shares are eligible for resale by the Holder without volume or manner-of-sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming Cashless Exercise of the Warrants), and otherwise, at the election of the Holder, by physical delivery of a certificate or a direct registration system account statement (“DRS Statement”), registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise by the Holder. Each exercise of this Warrant shall be effective immediately prior to the close of business on the date (the “Date of Exercise”) that the Notice of Exercise has been delivered, so long as the Aggregate Exercise Price (if any) has been delivered within one Trading Day of the delivery of the Notice of Exercise. On or before the first (1st) Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received a Notice of Exercise, the Company shall transmit by electronic mail an acknowledgment of confirmation of receipt of such Notice of Exercise, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, to the Holder and the Transfer Agent, which confirmation shall constitute an instruction to the Transfer Agent to process such Notice of Exercise in accordance with the terms herein. On or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Company shall cause the Transfer Agent to issue and deliver via DWAC in connection with any resale of such Warrant Shares with respect to which the Holder has instructed a broker to sell such Warrant Shares, and for which the Holder has not yet settled (or via reputable overnight courier to the address as specified in the Notice of Exercise, a certificate or a DRS Statement, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee), for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder shall be entitled pursuant to such exercise, the Company shall cause the Transfer Agent to deliver the Warrant Shares to the Holder (or its designee). From the Issuance Date through and including the Expiration Date, the Company shall maintain a transfer agent that participates in DTC’s Fast Automated Securities Transfer (“FAST”) Program. Upon delivery of a Notice of Exercise; provided that the payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price (if any) has been made within one (1) Trading Day of the Notice of Exercise, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the certificates or DRS Statements evidencing such Warrant Shares, or crediting of such Holder’s (or designee’s) account with DTC (as the case may be). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company’s failure to deliver Warrant Shares to the Holder on or prior to the Warrant Share Delivery Date shall not be deemed to be a breach of this Warrant.

(iv)If the Company shall fail, for any reason or for no reason, on or prior to the Share Delivery Date, to deliver to the Holder the Warrant Shares subject to a Notice of Exercise and the applicable Aggregate Exercise Price has been delivered (other than in the case of a Cashless Exercise), then the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each US$1,000 of Warrant Shares subject to such exercise (based on the fair value of the Common Shares on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise), US$10 per Trading Day for each Trading Day after such Share Delivery Date until such Warrant Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise. In addition to the foregoing, if the Company fails to deliver the Warrant Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 1(b)(iii) above pursuant to an exercise on or before the Share Delivery Date, and if on or after such Share Delivery Date the Holder acquires (in an open market transaction, stock loan or otherwise) Common Shares corresponding to all or


any portion of the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise that the Holder is entitled to receive from the Company and has not received from the Company in connection with such failure to deliver (a “Buy-In”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Holder, the Company shall, within two (2) Business Days after the Holder’s request and in the Holder’s discretion, either (i) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, stock loan costs and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) for the Common Shares so acquired (including, without limitation, by any other Person in respect, or on behalf, of the Holder) (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to so issue and deliver such certificate or DRS Statement (and to issue such Warrant Shares) or credit the balance account of such Holder or such Holder’s designee, as applicable, with DTC for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise hereunder (as the case may be) (and to issue such Warrant Shares) shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to so issue and deliver to the Holder a certificate or DRS Statement representing such Warrant Shares or credit the balance account of such Holder or such Holder’s designee, as applicable, with DTC for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise hereunder (as the case may be) and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of Warrant Shares multiplied by (B) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed. Nothing shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity, including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates or DRS Statements representing Warrant Shares (or to electronically deliver such Warrant Shares) upon the exercise of this Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof. In addition to the foregoing rights, (i) if the Company fails to deliver the applicable number of Warrant Shares upon an exercise pursuant to Section 1 by the applicable Share Delivery Date, then the Holder shall have the right to rescind such exercise in whole or in part and retain and/or have the Company return, as the case may be, any portion of this Warrant that has not been exercised pursuant to such Notice of Exercise; provided that the rescission of an exercise shall not affect the Company’s obligation to make any payments that have accrued prior to the date of such Notice of Exercise pursuant to this Section 1(b) or otherwise, and (ii) if a registration statement covering the resale of the Warrant Shares that are subject to a Notice of Exercise is not available for the resale of such Warrant Shares and the Holder has submitted a Notice of Exercise prior to receiving notice of the non-availability of such registration statement and the Company has not already delivered the Warrant Shares underlying such Notice of Exercise electronically without any restrictive legend by crediting such aggregate number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its DWAC system, the Holder shall have the option, by delivery of notice to the Company, to (x) rescind such Notice of Exercise in whole or in part and retain or have returned, as the case may be, any portion of this Warrant that has not been exercised pursuant to such Notice of Exercise; provided that the rescission of a Notice of Exercise shall not affect the Company’s obligation to make any payments that have accrued prior to the date of such notice pursuant to this Section 1(b) or otherwise, and/or (y) switch some or all of such Notice of Exercise from a cash exercise to a Cashless Exercise.

(c)Partial Exercise. This Warrant shall be exercisable, either in its entirety or, from time to time, for part of the number of Warrant Shares referenced by this Warrant. If this Warrant is submitted in connection with any exercise pursuant to Section 1 and the number of Warrant


Shares represented by this Warrant submitted for exercise is greater than the actual number of Warrant Shares being acquired upon such an exercise and the Holder elects to receive a replacement Warrant, then the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after any exercise and at its own expense, issue a new Warrant of like tenor representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant, less the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is exercised.

(d)Disputes. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price or the arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall promptly issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares that are not disputed and resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 16.

2.

ISSUANCE OF WARRANT SHARES

(a)The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares will, upon issuance in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, be (i) duly authorized, fully paid and non-assessable, and (ii) free from all liens, charges and security interests, with the exception of claims arising through the acts or omissions of any Holder and except as arising from applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws, or applicable Canadian provincial securities laws.

(b)The Company shall register this Warrant upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose in the name of the record Holder of such Warrant from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the record Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner thereof for the purpose of any exercise thereof, any distribution to the Holder thereof and for all other purposes.

(c)The Company will not, by amendment of its articles of incorporation, by-laws or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, amalgamation, arrangement 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 to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant and in the taking of all action necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder to exercise this Warrant, or against impairment of such rights.

3.ADJUSTMENTS OF EXERCISE PRICE, NUMBER AND TYPE OF WARRANT SHARES

(a)The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain events described in this Section 3. If the Company does not have the requisite number of authorized but unissued Common Shares to make any adjustment, then the Company shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, take all action necessary to increase the Company’s authorized Common Shares to an amount sufficient to allow the Company to have the requisite number of authorized Common Shares to allow for such adjustment.


(i)

Subdivision or Combination of Common Shares. In case the Company shall at any time subdivide (whether by way of stock dividend, stock split or otherwise) its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Shares shall be proportionately increased, and conversely, in case the outstanding Common Shares of the Company shall be combined (whether by way of stock combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Shares shall be proportionately decreased. The Exercise Price and the Warrant Shares, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of any successive event or events described in this Section 3(a)(i).

(ii)

Subsequent Rights Offerings. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 3(a) above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Common Stock Equivalents or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).

(iii)

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, the Holder shall


be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this 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, that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the 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 the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).

(iv)

Fundamental Transaction. If any recapitalization, reclassification or reorganization of the capital of the Company, any consolidation or merger, amalgamation or arrangement of the Company with another corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets shall be effected in such a way that holders of Common Shares shall be entitled to receive shares, other securities, or other assets or property (a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, as a condition of such Fundamental Transaction, lawful and adequate provisions shall be made by the Company whereby the Holder hereof shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive (in lieu of the Common Shares of the Company immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant) such shares, other securities or other assets or property as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of outstanding Common Shares equal to the number of such shares immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable assuming the full exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant. In the event of any Fundamental Transaction, appropriate provision shall be made by the Company with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of this Warrant to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustments of the Exercise Price and of the number of shares purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the corresponding registration rights contained in the Registration Rights Agreement) shall thereafter be applicable, in relation to any shares, other securities, or assets or property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise hereof. The Company will not effect any such consolidation, merger, amalgamation, arrangement or sale unless, prior to the consummation thereof, the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger, amalgamation, arrangement or the entity purchasing such assets shall assume by written


instrument reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder executed and mailed or delivered to the registered Holder hereof at the last address of such Holder appearing on the books of the Company, the obligation to deliver to such Holder such shares, other securities, or assets or property as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such Holder may be entitled to purchase. If there is a Fundamental Transaction, then the Company shall cause to be mailed to the Holder at its last address as it shall appear on the books and records of the Company, at least 10 calendar days before the effective date of the Fundamental Transaction, a notice stating the date on which such Fundamental Transaction is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Shares of record shall be entitled to exchange their Common Shares for shares, other securities, assets or property delivered upon such Fundamental Transaction; provided, however, 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. The Holder is entitled to exercise this Warrant during the 10 calendar-day period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice, provided such exercise is in compliance with all applicable corporate and securities laws. In any event, the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger, amalgamation or arrangement, or the entity purchasing such assets shall be deemed to assume such obligation to deliver to such Holder such shares, other securities, or assets or property even in the absence of a written instrument assuming such obligation to the extent such assumption occurs by operation of law. 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 in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3(a)(iv) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the Holder, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this 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 the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall be added to the term “Company” under this Warrant (so that from and after the occurrence or consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, each and every provision of this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to each of the Company and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally), and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally with the Company, may exercise every right and power of the Company prior thereto and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities shall assume all of the obligations of the Company prior thereto under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if the Company and such Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally, had been named as the Company herein. For the avoidance of doubt, the Holder shall be entitled to the benefits of the provisions of this Section 3(a)(iv) regardless of (i) whether the Company has sufficient authorized shares of Common Stock for the issuance of Warrant Shares and/or (ii) whether a Fundamental Transaction occurs prior to the Initial Exercise Date.

(b)Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment pursuant to this Section 3, the Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to the Holder of this Warrant a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Company shall promptly furnish or cause to be furnished to such Holder a like certificate setting forth: (i) such adjustments and readjustments; and (ii) the number of shares and/or the amount, if any, of other securities, assets or property which at the time would be received upon the exercise of the Warrant.

(c)Certain Events. If any event occurs as to which the other provisions of this Section 3 are not strictly applicable but the lack of any adjustment would not fairly protect the purchase rights of the Holder under this Warrant in accordance with the basic intent and principles of such provisions, or if strictly applicable would not fairly protect the purchase rights of the Holder under this Warrant in accordance with the basic intent and principles of such provisions, then the Board of Directors will, in good faith, make an appropriate adjustment to protect the rights of the Holder, provided that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 3(c) will increase the Exercise Price or decrease the number of Warrant Shares except as determined pursuant to this Section 3.

4.

RESTRICTION ON EXERCISE

(a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and the Holder shall not be entitled to exercise this Warrant for a number of Warrant Shares in excess of that number of Warrant Shares that, upon giving effect or immediately prior to such exercise, would cause (i) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder, its Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act to exceed [4.99][9.99]% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the total number of


issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company following such exercise, or (ii) the combined voting power of the securities of the Company beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act to exceed [4.99][9.99]% of the combined voting power of all of the securities of the Company then outstanding following such exercise. For purposes of this Warrant, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Form 10-Q or Form 10-K, as the case may be, filed with the Commission prior to the date hereof, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other notice by the Company or its transfer agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written request of the Holder, the Company shall within three (3) Trading Days confirm in writing or by electronic mail to the 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 the Holder since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. By written notice to the Company, the Holder may from time to time increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage specified in such notice; provided that any such increase will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company. For purposes of this Section 4(a), the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock or voting securities beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act shall include the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock that would be issuable upon (x) exercise of the remaining unexercised and non-cancelled portion of this Warrant by the Holder and (y) exercise or conversion of the unexercised, non-converted or non-cancelled portion of any other securities of the Company that do not have voting power (including without limitation any securities of the Company that would entitle the holder thereof to acquire at any time Common Stock, including without limitation any debt, preferred stock, right, option, warrant or other instrument that is at any time convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to receive, Common Stock), is subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein and is beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates and other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act.

(b)This Section 4 shall not restrict the number of shares of Common Stock that a Holder may receive or beneficially own in order to determine the amount of securities or other consideration that such Holder may receive in the event of a Fundamental Transaction as contemplated in Section 3(a)(iv) of this Warrant.

5.TRANSFERS AND EXCHANGES OF WARRANT AND WARRANT SHARES

(a)Registration of Transfers and Exchanges. Subject to Section 5(c), upon the Holder’s surrender of this Warrant, with a duly executed copy of the Form of Assignment attached as Exhibit C, to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company at its principal offices or at such other office or agency as the Company may specify in writing to the Holder, the Company shall register


the transfer of all or any portion of this Warrant. Upon such registration of transfer, the Company shall issue a new Warrant, in substantially the form of this Warrant, evidencing the acquisition rights transferred to the transferee and a new Warrant, in similar form, evidencing the remaining acquisition rights, if any, not transferred, to the Holder requesting the transfer.

(b)Warrant Exchangeable for Different Denominations. The Holder may exchange this Warrant for a new Warrant or Warrants, in substantially the form of this Warrant, evidencing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares which may then be purchased hereunder, each of such new Warrants to be dated the date of such exchange and to represent the right to purchase such number of Warrant Shares as shall be designated by the Holder. The Holder shall surrender this Warrant with duly executed instructions regarding such re-certification of this Warrant to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company at its principal offices or at such other office or agency as the Company may specify in writing to the Holder.

(c)Restrictions on Transfers. This Warrant may not be transferred at any time without (i) registration under the Securities Act and all applicable state securities laws, or (ii) the availability of an exemption from such registration together with a written opinion of legal counsel addressed to the Company that the proposed transfer of the Warrant may be effected without registration under the Securities Act, which opinion will be in form and substance and from counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company. In addition, the Warrant and any Warrant Shares that have been issued upon exercise of the Warrant, may not be transferred at any time to any person located or resident in Canada except in compliance with all applicable Canadian securities laws.

(d)Permitted Transfers and Assignments. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Section 5, the Holder may transfer, with or without consideration, this Warrant or any of the Warrant Shares (or a portion thereof) to the Holder’s Affiliates without obtaining the opinion from counsel that may be required by Section 5(c)(ii), provided that the Holder delivers to the Company and its counsel certifications, documentation, and other assurances, acceptable to the Company, and reasonably required by the Holder’s counsel to enable the Holder’s counsel to render an opinion to the Company’s Transfer Agent that such transfer does not violate applicable U.S. federal securities laws, and provided that no transferee is located or a resident in Canada or such transfer is in compliance with all applicable Canadian securities laws.

6.

MUTILATED OR MISSING WARRANT CERTIFICATE

WARRANT TO PURCHASE COMMON SHARES

ProMIS Neurosciences Inc., a corporation incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) (the “Company”), for value received on [  ], 2024 (the “Issuance Date”), hereby issues to [  ] (the “Holder”) this Warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase [ ] Common Shares (as hereinafter defined) (each such share as from time to time adjusted as hereinafter provided being a “Warrant Share” and all such shares being the “Warrant Shares”), at the Exercise Price (as defined below), as from time to time adjusted as hereinafter provided, on or before the Expiration Date (as defined below), all subject to the following terms and conditions. This Warrant is one of a series of warrants of like tenor that have been issued in connection with the Company’s private offering solely to accredited investors (as defined under applicable U.S. federal securities laws) of units of Common Shares and Warrants in accordance with, and subject to, the terms and conditions described in that certain Unit Purchase Agreement between the Company and each purchaser thereunder, inclusive of all exhibits and all amendments, supplements and appendices thereto (the “Purchase Agreement”).

As used in this Warrant, (i) “Business Day” means any day other than Saturday, Sunday or any other day on which commercial banks in the City of New York, New York or the City of Toronto Ontario, are authorized or required by law or executive order to close; (ii) “Common Shares” means the common shares of the Company, no par value; (iii) “Exercise Price” means U.S. $2.02 per Warrant Share, subject to adjustment as provided herein; (iv) “Exercise

DURATION AND EXERCISE OF WARRANTS

(a)       Exercise Period. Commencing on the Exercise Commencement Date, the Holder may, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, exercise this Warrant in whole or in part on any Business Day on or before 11:59 P.M., Eastern Time, on the Expiration Date, at which time this Warrant shall become void and of no value.

(b)       Exercise Procedures.

(i)       While this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable in accordance with Section 1(a), in addition to the manner set forth in Section 1(b)(ii) below, the Holder may exercise this Warrant in whole or in part at any time and from time to time by delivery to the Company of a duly executed copy of the Notice of Exercise attached as Exhibit A (the “Notice of Exercise”).  Within the earlier of (i) two (2) Trading Days and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period (as defined below) following the date of exercise as aforesaid (the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”), the Holder shall deliver the aggregate Exercise Price for the shares specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank unless the cashless exercise procedure specified in Section 1(b)(ii) below is specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise.  No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise be required.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation as soon as reasonably practicable of the date on which 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. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares


purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise within one (1) Business Day of receipt of such notice.  As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary trading market with respect to the Common Stock as in effect on the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise.

(ii)       If at any time a registration statement is not effective or available (as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement) for the resale by the Holder of all of the Warrant Shares, then the Holder may, in its sole discretion, exercise all or any part of the Warrant in a “cashless” or “net-issue” exercise (a “Cashless Exercise”) by delivering to the Company a Notice of Exercise, in which case, the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder upon such exercise shall be calculated using the following formula:

 

X      =

Y * (A - B)

 

 

 

A

 

with: 

X =

the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder

Y =

the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which the Warrant is being exercised

A =

the fair value per Common Share on the date of exercise of this Warrant

B =

the then-current Exercise Price of the Warrant

Solely for the purposes of this paragraph, “fair value” per Common Share shall mean the Closing Price (as defined below) per Common Share for the Trading Day immediately preceding the date on which the Notice of Exercise is deemed to have been sent to the Company. “Closing Price” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies:  (a) if the Common Shares are then listed on a U.S. national securities exchange, the closing price per Common Share for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the primary exchange in the United States on which the Common Shares are then listed; (b) if prices for the Common Shares are then quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board or any tier of the OTC Markets in the United States, the closing bid price per Common Share for such date (or the nearest preceding date) so quoted; or (c) if prices for the Common Shares are then reported in the “Pink Sheets” published by the National Quotation Bureau Incorporated (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices) in the United States, the most recent closing bid price per share of the Common Shares so reported. If the Common Shares are not publicly traded as set forth above, the “fair value” per Common Share shall be reasonably and in good faith determined by the board of directors of the Company (the “Board of Directors”) as of the date which the Notice of Exercise is deemed to have been sent to the Company.

For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a Cashless Exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the


holding period for such shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant was originally issued.

(iii)       Upon the exercise of this Warrant in compliance with the provisions of this Section 1(b), the Company shall cause the Warrant Shares purchased hereunder to be transmitted by the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company (the “DTC”) through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”), if the Transfer Agent is then a participant in such system, and either (A) there is an effective and available registration statement permitting the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder (as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement) and the Holder has contracted for such a resale, or (B) the Warrant Shares are eligible for resale by the Holder without volume or manner-of-sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming Cashless Exercise of the Warrants), and otherwise, at the election of the Holder, by physical delivery of a certificate or a direct registration system account statement (“DRS Statement”), registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise by the Holder. Each exercise of this Warrant shall be effective immediately prior to the close of business on the date (the “Date of Exercise”) that the Notice of Exercise has been delivered, so long as the Aggregate Exercise Price (if any) has been delivered within one Trading Day of the delivery of the Notice of Exercise. On or before the first (1st) Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received a Notice of Exercise, the Company shall transmit by electronic mail an acknowledgment of confirmation of receipt of such Notice of Exercise, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, to the Holder and the Transfer Agent, which confirmation shall constitute an instruction to the Transfer Agent to process such Notice of Exercise in accordance with the terms herein. On or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Company shall cause the Transfer Agent to issue and deliver via DWAC in connection with any resale of such Warrant Shares with respect to which the Holder has instructed a broker to sell such Warrant Shares, and for which the Holder has not yet settled (or via reputable overnight courier to the address as specified in the Notice of Exercise, a certificate or a DRS Statement, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee), for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder shall be entitled pursuant to such exercise, the Company shall cause the Transfer Agent to deliver the Warrant Shares to the Holder (or its designee). From the Issuance Date through and including the Expiration Date, the Company shall maintain a transfer agent that participates in DTC’s Fast Automated Securities Transfer (“FAST”) Program. Upon delivery of a Notice of Exercise; provided that the payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price (if any) has been made within one (1) Trading Day of the Notice of Exercise, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the certificates or DRS Statements evidencing such Warrant Shares, or crediting of such Holder’s (or designee’s) account with DTC (as the case may be). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company’s failure to deliver Warrant Shares to the Holder on or prior to the Warrant Share Delivery Date shall not be deemed to be a breach of this Warrant.

(iv)       If the Company shall fail, for any reason or for no reason, on or prior to the Share Delivery Date, to deliver to the Holder the Warrant Shares subject to a Notice of Exercise and the applicable Aggregate Exercise Price has been delivered (other than in the case of a Cashless Exercise), then the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a


penalty, for each US$1,000 of Warrant Shares subject to such exercise (based on the fair value of the Common Shares on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise), US$10 per Trading Day for each Trading Day after such Share Delivery Date until such Warrant Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise. In addition to the foregoing, if the Company fails to deliver the Warrant Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 1(b)(iii) above pursuant to an exercise on or before the Share Delivery Date, and if on or after such Share Delivery Date the Holder acquires (in an open market transaction, stock loan or otherwise) Common Shares corresponding to all or any portion of the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise that the Holder is entitled to receive from the Company and has not received from the Company in connection with such failure to deliver (a “Buy-In”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Holder, the Company shall, within two (2) Business Days after the Holder’s request and in the Holder’s discretion, either (i) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, stock loan costs and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) for the Common Shares so acquired (including, without limitation, by any other Person in respect, or on behalf, of the Holder) (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to so issue and deliver such certificate or DRS Statement (and to issue such Warrant Shares) or credit the balance account of such Holder or such Holder’s designee, as applicable, with DTC for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise hereunder (as the case may be) (and to issue such Warrant Shares) shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to so issue and deliver to the Holder a certificate or DRS Statement representing such Warrant Shares or credit the balance account of such Holder or such Holder’s designee, as applicable, with DTC for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise hereunder (as the case may be) and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of Warrant Shares multiplied by (B) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed. Nothing shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity, including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates or DRS Statements representing Warrant Shares (or to electronically deliver such Warrant Shares) upon the exercise of this Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof. In addition to the foregoing rights, (i) if the Company fails to deliver the applicable number of Warrant Shares upon an exercise pursuant to Section 1 by the applicable Share Delivery Date, then the Holder shall have the right to rescind such exercise in whole or in part and retain and/or have the Company return, as the case may be, any portion of this Warrant that has not been exercised pursuant to such Notice of Exercise; provided that the rescission of an exercise shall not affect the Company’s obligation to make any payments that have accrued prior to the date of such Notice of Exercise pursuant to this Section 1(b) or otherwise, and (ii) if a registration statement covering the resale of the Warrant Shares that are subject to a Notice of Exercise is not available for the resale of such Warrant Shares and the Holder has submitted a Notice of Exercise prior to receiving notice of the non-availability of such registration statement and the Company has not already delivered the Warrant Shares underlying such Notice of Exercise electronically without any restrictive legend by crediting such aggregate number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its DWAC system, the Holder shall have the option, by delivery of notice to the Company, to (x) rescind such Notice of Exercise in whole or in part and retain or have returned, as the case may be, any portion of this Warrant that has not been exercised pursuant to such Notice of Exercise; provided that the rescission of a Notice


of Exercise shall not affect the Company’s obligation to make any payments that have accrued prior to the date of such notice pursuant to this Section 1(b) or otherwise, and/or (y) switch some or all of such Notice of Exercise from a cash exercise to a Cashless Exercise.

(c)       Partial Exercise. This Warrant shall be exercisable, either in its entirety or, from time to time, for part of the number of Warrant Shares referenced by this Warrant. If this Warrant is submitted in connection with any exercise pursuant to Section 1 and the number of Warrant Shares represented by this Warrant submitted for exercise is greater than the actual number of Warrant Shares being acquired upon such an exercise and the Holder elects to receive a replacement Warrant, then the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after any exercise and at its own expense, issue a new Warrant of like tenor representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant, less the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is exercised.

(d)       Disputes. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price or the arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall promptly issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares that are not disputed and resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 16.

2.

ISSUANCE OF WARRANT SHARES

(a)       The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares will, upon issuance in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, be (i) duly authorized, fully paid and non-assessable, and (ii) free from all liens, charges and security interests, with the exception of claims arising through the acts or omissions of any Holder and except as arising from applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws, or applicable Canadian provincial securities laws.

(b)       The Company shall register this Warrant upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose in the name of the record Holder of such Warrant from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the record Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner thereof for the purpose of any exercise thereof, any distribution to the Holder thereof and for all other purposes.

(c)       The Company will not, by amendment of its articles of incorporation, by-laws or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, amalgamation, arrangement 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 to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant and in the taking of all action necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder to exercise this Warrant, or against impairment of such rights.

3.

ADJUSTMENTS OF EXERCISE PRICE, NUMBER AND TYPE OF WARRANT SHARES


(a)       The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain events described in this Section 3. If the Company does not have the requisite number of authorized but unissued Common Shares to make any adjustment, then the Company shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, take all action necessary to increase the Company’s authorized Common Shares to an amount sufficient to allow the Company to have the requisite number of authorized Common Shares to allow for such adjustment.

(i)

Subdivision or Combination of Common Shares. In case the Company shall at any time subdivide (whether by way of stock dividend, stock split or otherwise) its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Shares shall be proportionately increased, and conversely, in case the outstanding Common Shares of the Company shall be combined (whether by way of stock combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Shares shall be proportionately decreased. The Exercise Price and the Warrant Shares, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of any successive event or events described in this Section 3(a)(i).

(ii)

Subsequent Rights Offerings.  In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 3(a) above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Common Stock Equivalents or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).


(iii)

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, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this 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, that to the extent that the Holder's right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the 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 the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).

(iv)

Fundamental Transaction. If any recapitalization, reclassification or reorganization of the capital of the Company, any consolidation or merger, amalgamation or arrangement of the Company with another corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets shall be effected in such a way that holders of Common Shares shall be entitled to receive shares, other securities, or other assets or property (a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, as a condition of such Fundamental Transaction, lawful and adequate provisions shall be made by the Company whereby the Holder hereof shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive (in lieu of the Common Shares of the Company immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant) such shares, other securities or other assets or property as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of outstanding Common Shares equal to the number of such shares immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable assuming the full exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant. In the event of any Fundamental Transaction, appropriate provision shall be made by the Company with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of this Warrant to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustments of the Exercise


Price and of the number of shares purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the corresponding registration rights contained in the Registration Rights Agreement) shall thereafter be applicable, in relation to any shares, other securities, or assets or property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise hereof. The Company will not effect any such consolidation, merger, amalgamation, arrangement or sale unless, prior to the consummation thereof, the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger, amalgamation, arrangement or the entity purchasing such assets shall assume by written instrument reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder executed and mailed or delivered to the registered Holder hereof at the last address of such Holder appearing on the books of the Company, the obligation to deliver to such Holder such shares, other securities, or assets or property as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such Holder may be entitled to purchase. If there is a Fundamental Transaction, then the Company shall cause to be mailed to the Holder at its last address as it shall appear on the books and records of the Company, at least 10 calendar days before the effective date of the Fundamental Transaction, a notice stating the date on which such Fundamental Transaction is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Shares of record shall be entitled to exchange their Common Shares for shares, other securities, assets or property delivered upon such Fundamental Transaction; provided, however, 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. The Holder is entitled to exercise this Warrant during the 10 calendar-day period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice, provided such exercise is in compliance with all applicable corporate and securities laws. In any event, the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger, amalgamation or arrangement, or the entity purchasing such assets shall be deemed to assume such obligation to deliver to such Holder such shares, other securities, or assets or property even in the absence of a written instrument assuming such obligation to the extent such assumption occurs by operation of law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event of a Fundamental Transaction, the Company or any Successor Entity (as defined below) shall, at the Holder’s option, exercisable at any time concurrently with, or within 30 days after, the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction (or, if later, the date of the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction), purchase this Warrant from the Holder by paying to the Holder an amount of cash equal to the Black Scholes Value (as defined below) of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date of the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction; provided, however, that, if the Fundamental Transaction is not within the Company's control, including not approved by the Company's Board of Directors, the Holder shall only be entitled to receive from the


Company or any Successor Entity the same type or form of consideration (and in the same proportion), at the Black Scholes Value of the unexercised portion of this Warrant, that is being offered and paid to the holders of Common Stock of the Company in connection with the Fundamental Transaction, whether that consideration be in the form of cash, stock or any combination thereof, or whether the holders of Common Stock are given the choice to receive from among alternative forms of consideration in connection with the Fundamental Transaction; provided, further, that if holders of Common Stock of the Company are not offered or paid any consideration in such Fundamental Transaction, such holders of Common Stock will be deemed to have received common stock of the Successor Entity (which Successor Entity may be the Company following such Fundamental Transaction) in such Fundamental Transaction.  “Black Scholes Value” means the value of this Warrant based on the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model obtained from the “OV” function on Bloomberg determined as of the day of consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction for pricing purposes and reflecting (A) a risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date, (B) an expected volatility equal to the 100 day volatility obtained from the HVT function on Bloomberg (determined utilizing a 365 day annualization factor) as of the Trading Day immediately following the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction, (C) the underlying price per share used in such calculation shall be the highest VWAP during the period beginning on the Trading Day immediately preceding the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction (or the consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, if earlier) and ending on the Trading Day of the Holder’s request pursuant to this Section 3(a)(iv), (D) a remaining option time equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date and (E) a zero cost of borrow. The payment of the Black Scholes Value will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds (or such other consideration) within the later of (i) five Business Days of the Holder’s election and (ii) the date of consummation of the Fundamental Transaction. The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3(a)(iv) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the Holder, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this 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 the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall be added to the term “Company” under this Warrant (so that from and after the occurrence or consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, each and every provision of this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to each of the Company and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally), and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally with the Company, may exercise every right and power of the Company prior thereto and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities shall assume all of the obligations of the Company prior thereto under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if the Company and such Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally, had been named as the Company herein. For the avoidance of doubt, the Holder shall be entitled to the benefits of the provisions of this Section 3(a)(iv) regardless of (i) whether the Company has sufficient authorized shares of Common Stock for the issuance of Warrant Shares and/or (ii) whether a Fundamental Transaction occurs prior to the Initial Exercise Date.

(b)       Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment pursuant to this Section 3, the Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to the Holder of this Warrant a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Company shall promptly furnish or cause to be furnished to such Holder a like certificate setting forth: (i) such adjustments and readjustments; and (ii) the number of shares and/or the amount, if any, of other securities, assets or property which at the time would be received upon the exercise of the Warrant.

(c)       Certain Events. If any event occurs as to which the other provisions of this Section 3 are not strictly applicable but the lack of any adjustment would not fairly protect the purchase rights of the Holder under this Warrant in accordance with the basic intent and principles of such provisions, or if strictly applicable would not fairly protect the purchase rights of the Holder under this Warrant in accordance with the basic intent and principles of such provisions, then the Board of Directors will, in good faith, make an appropriate adjustment to protect the rights of the Holder,


provided that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 3(c) will increase the Exercise Price or decrease the number of Warrant Shares except as determined pursuant to this Section 3.

4.

RESTRICTION ON EXERCISE

(a)       Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and the Holder shall not be entitled to exercise this Warrant for a number of Warrant Shares in excess of that number of Warrant Shares that, upon giving effect or immediately prior to such exercise, would cause (i) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder, its Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act to exceed [4.99][9.99]% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company following such exercise, or (ii) the combined voting power of the securities of the Company beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act to exceed [4.99][9.99]% of the combined voting power of all of the securities of the Company then outstanding following such exercise. For purposes of this Warrant, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Form 10-Q or Form 10-K, as the case may be, filed with the Commission prior to the date hereof, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other notice by the Company or its transfer agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written request of the Holder, the Company shall within three (3) Trading Days confirm in writing or by electronic mail to the 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 the Holder since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. By written notice to the Company, the Holder may from time to time increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage specified in such notice; provided that any such increase will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company. For purposes of this Section 4(a), the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock or voting securities beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act shall include the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock that would be issuable upon (x) exercise of the remaining unexercised and non-cancelled portion of this Warrant by the Holder and (y) exercise or conversion of the unexercised, non-converted or non-cancelled portion of any other securities of the Company that do not have voting power (including without limitation any securities of the Company that would entitle the holder thereof to acquire at any time Common Stock, including without limitation any debt, preferred stock, right, option, warrant or other instrument that is at any time convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to receive, Common Stock), is subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein and is beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates and other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act.


(b)       This Section 4 shall not restrict the number of shares of Common Stock that a Holder may receive or beneficially own in order to determine the amount of securities or other consideration that such Holder may receive in the event of a Fundamental Transaction as contemplated in Section 3(a)(iv) of this Warrant.

5.

TRANSFERS AND EXCHANGES OF WARRANT AND WARRANT SHARES

(a)       Registration of Transfers and Exchanges. Subject to Section 5(c), upon the Holder’s surrender of this Warrant, with a duly executed copy of the Form of Assignment attached as Exhibit C, to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company at its principal offices or at such other office or agency as the Company may specify in writing to the Holder, the Company shall register the transfer of all or any portion of this Warrant. Upon such registration of transfer, the Company shall issue a new Warrant, in substantially the form of this Warrant, evidencing the acquisition rights transferred to the transferee and a new Warrant, in similar form, evidencing the remaining acquisition rights, if any, not transferred, to the Holder requesting the transfer.

(b)       Warrant Exchangeable for Different Denominations. The Holder may exchange this Warrant for a new Warrant or Warrants, in substantially the form of this Warrant, evidencing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares which may then be purchased hereunder, each of such new Warrants to be dated the date of such exchange and to represent the right to purchase such number of Warrant Shares as shall be designated by the Holder. The Holder shall surrender this Warrant with duly executed instructions regarding such re-certification of this Warrant to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company at its principal offices or at such other office or agency as the Company may specify in writing to the Holder.

(c)       Restrictions on Transfers. This Warrant may not be transferred at any time without (i) registration under the Securities Act and all applicable state securities laws, or (ii) the availability of an exemption from such registration together with a written opinion of legal counsel addressed to the Company that the proposed transfer of the Warrant may be effected without registration under the Securities Act, which opinion will be in form and substance and from counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company. In addition, the Warrant and any Warrant Shares that have been issued upon exercise of the Warrant, may not be transferred at any time to any person located or resident in Canada except in compliance with all applicable Canadian securities laws.

(d)       Permitted Transfers and Assignments. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Section 5, the Holder may transfer, with or without consideration, this Warrant or any of the Warrant Shares (or a portion thereof) to the Holder’s Affiliates without obtaining the opinion from counsel that may be required by Section 5(c)(ii), provided that the Holder delivers to the Company and its counsel certifications, documentation, and other assurances, acceptable to the Company, and reasonably required by the Holder’s counsel to enable the Holder’s counsel to render an opinion to the Company’s Transfer Agent that such transfer does not violate applicable U.S. federal securities laws, and provided that no transferee is located or a resident in Canada or such transfer is in compliance with all applicable Canadian securities laws.

MUTILATED OR MISSING WARRANT CERTIFICATE


If this Warrant is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, upon request by the Holder, the Company will, at the Holder’s expense, issue, in exchange for and upon cancellation of the mutilated Warrant, or in substitution for the lost, stolen or destroyed Warrant, a new Warrant, in substantially the form of this Warrant, representing the right to acquire the equivalent number of Warrant Shares; provided, however, that, as a prerequisite to the issuance of a substitute Warrant, the Company may require satisfactory evidence of loss, theft or destruction as well as an indemnity from the Holder of a lost, stolen or destroyed Warrant.

7.

PAYMENT OF TAXES

[and if to Canadian Purchasers: “UNLESS PERMITTED UNDER SECURITIES LEGISLATION, THE HOLDER OF THIS SECURITY MUST NOT TRADE THE SECURITY BEFORE [THE DATE WHICH IS FOUR MONTHS AND ONE DAY AFTER THE CLOSING DATE.”]

RESERVATION OF SHARES

The Company shall reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued Common Shares for issuance upon the exercise of this Warrant, free from pre-emptive rights, such number of Common Shares for which this Warrant shall from time to time be exercisable. The Company will take all such commercially 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. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company covenants that it will promptly take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant and use best efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents, including but not limited to consents from the Board of Directors or any public regulatory body, as may be necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.

PROMIS NEUROSCIENCES INC.

1.DURATION AND EXERCISE OF WARRANTS

(a)       Exercise Period. Commencing on the Exercise Commencement Date, the Holder may, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, exercise this Warrant in whole or in part on any Business Day on or before 11:59 P.M., Eastern Time, on the Expiration Date, at which time this Warrant shall become void and of no value.

(b)       Exercise Procedures.

(i)       While this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable in accordance with Section 1(a), in addition to the manner set forth in Section 1(b)(ii) below, the Holder may exercise this Warrant in whole or in part at any time and from time to time by delivery to the Company of a duly executed copy of the Notice of Exercise attached as Exhibit A (the “Notice of Exercise”).  Within the earlier of (i) two (2) Trading Days and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period (as defined below) following the date of exercise as aforesaid (the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”), the Holder shall deliver the aggregate Exercise Price for the shares specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank unless the cashless exercise procedure specified in Section 1(b)(ii) below is specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise.  No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise be required.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation as soon as reasonably practicable of the date on which 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.  The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise within one (1) Business Day of receipt of such notice.  As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary trading market with respect to the Common Stock as in effect on the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise.

(ii)       If at any time a registration statement is not effective or available (as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement) for the resale by the Holder of all of the Warrant Shares, then the Holder may, in its sole discretion, exercise all or any part of the Warrant in a “cashless” or “net-issue” exercise (a “Cashless Exercise”) by delivering to the Company a Notice of Exercise, in which case, the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder upon such exercise shall be calculated using the following formula:

 

X        =

Y * (A - B)

 

 

 

A

 

with: 

X =

the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder

Y =

the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which the Warrant is being exercised

A =

the fair value per Common Share on the date of exercise of this Warrant

B =

the then-current Exercise Price of the Warrant

Solely for the purposes of this paragraph, “fair value” per Common Share shall mean the Closing Price (as defined below) per Common Share for the Trading Day immediately preceding the date on which the Notice of Exercise is deemed to have been sent to the Company. “Closing Price” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies:  (a) if the Common Shares are then listed on a U.S. national securities exchange, the closing price per Common Share for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the primary exchange in the United States on which the Common Shares are then listed; (b) if prices for the Common Shares are then quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board or any tier of the OTC Markets in the United States, the closing bid price per Common Share for such date (or the nearest preceding date) so quoted; or (c) if prices for the Common Shares are then reported in the “Pink Sheets” published by the National Quotation Bureau Incorporated (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices) in the United States, the most recent closing bid price per share of the Common Shares so reported. If the Common Shares are not publicly traded as set forth above, the “fair value” per Common Share shall be reasonably and in good faith determined by the board of directors of the Company (the “Board of Directors”) as of the date which the Notice of Exercise is deemed to have been sent to the Company.

For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a Cashless Exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the


holding period for such shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant was originally issued.

(iii)       Upon the exercise of this Warrant in compliance with the provisions of this Section 1(b), the Company shall cause the Warrant Shares purchased hereunder to be transmitted by the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company (the “DTC”) through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”), if the Transfer Agent is then a participant in such system, and either (A) there is an effective and available registration statement permitting the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder (as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement) and the Holder has contracted for such a resale, or (B) the Warrant Shares are eligible for resale by the Holder without volume or manner-of-sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming Cashless Exercise of the Warrants), and otherwise, at the election of the Holder,  by physical delivery of a certificate or a direct registration system account statement (“DRS Statement”), registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise by the Holder. Each exercise of this Warrant shall be effective immediately prior to the close of business on the date (the “Date of Exercise”) that the Notice of Exercise has been delivered, so long as the Aggregate Exercise Price (if any) has been delivered within one Trading Day of the delivery of the Notice of Exercise. On or before the first (1st) Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received a Notice of Exercise, the Company shall transmit by electronic mail an acknowledgment of confirmation of receipt of such Notice of Exercise, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, to the Holder and the Transfer Agent, which confirmation shall constitute an instruction to the Transfer Agent to process such Notice of Exercise in accordance with the terms herein. On or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date , the Company shall cause the Transfer Agent to issue and deliver via DWAC in connection with any resale of such Warrant Shares with respect to which the Holder has instructed a broker to sell such Warrant Shares, and for which the Holder has not yet settled (or via  reputable overnight courier to the address as specified in the Notice of Exercise, a certificate or a DRS Statement, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee), for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder shall be entitled pursuant to such exercise, the Company shall cause the Transfer Agent to deliver the Warrant Shares to the Holder (or its designee). From the Issuance Date through and including the Expiration Date, the Company shall maintain a transfer agent that participates in DTC’s Fast Automated Securities Transfer (“FAST”) Program. Upon delivery of a Notice of Exercise; provided that the payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price (if any) has been made within one (1) Trading Day of the Notice of Exercise, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the certificates or DRS Statements evidencing such Warrant Shares, or crediting of such Holder’s (or designee’s) account with DTC (as the case may be). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company’s failure to deliver Warrant Shares to the Holder on or prior to the Warrant Share Delivery Date shall not be deemed to be a breach of this Warrant.

(iv)       If the Company shall fail, for any reason or for no reason, on or prior to the Share Delivery Date, to deliver to the Holder the Warrant Shares subject to a Notice of Exercise and the applicable Aggregate Exercise Price has been delivered (other than in the case of a Cashless Exercise), then the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a


penalty, for each US$1,000 of Warrant Shares subject to such exercise (based on the fair value of the Common Shares on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise), US$10 per Trading Day for each Trading Day after such Share Delivery Date until such Warrant Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise. In addition to the foregoing, if the Company fails to deliver the Warrant Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 1(b)(iii) above pursuant to an exercise on or before the Share Delivery Date, and if on or after such Share Delivery Date the Holder acquires (in an open market transaction, stock loan or otherwise) Common Shares corresponding to all or any portion of the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise that the Holder is entitled to receive from the Company and has not received from the Company in connection with such failure to deliver (a “Buy-In”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Holder, the Company shall, within two (2) Business Days after the Holder’s request and in the Holder’s discretion, either (i) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, stock loan costs and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) for the Common Shares so acquired (including, without limitation, by any other Person in respect, or on behalf, of the Holder) (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to so issue and deliver such certificate or DRS Statement (and to issue such Warrant Shares) or credit the balance account of such Holder or such Holder’s designee, as applicable, with DTC for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise hereunder (as the case may be) (and to issue such Warrant Shares) shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to so issue and deliver to the Holder a certificate or DRS Statement representing such Warrant Shares or credit the balance account of such Holder or such Holder’s designee, as applicable, with DTC for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise hereunder (as the case may be) and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of Warrant Shares multiplied by (B) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed. Nothing shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity, including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates or DRS Statements representing Warrant Shares (or to electronically deliver such Warrant Shares) upon the exercise of this Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof. In addition to the foregoing rights, (i) if the Company fails to deliver the applicable number of Warrant Shares upon an exercise pursuant to Section 1 by the applicable Share Delivery Date, then the Holder shall have the right to rescind such exercise in whole or in part and retain and/or have the Company return, as the case may be, any portion of this Warrant that has not been exercised pursuant to such Notice of Exercise; provided that the rescission of an exercise shall not affect the Company’s obligation to make any payments that have accrued prior to the date of such Notice of Exercise pursuant to this Section 1(b) or otherwise, and (ii) if a registration statement covering the resale of the Warrant Shares that are subject to a Notice of Exercise is not available for the resale of such Warrant Shares and the Holder has submitted a Notice of Exercise prior to receiving notice of the non-availability of such registration statement and the Company has not already delivered the Warrant Shares underlying such Notice of Exercise electronically without any restrictive legend by crediting such aggregate number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its DWAC system, the Holder shall have the option, by delivery of notice to the Company, to (x) rescind such Notice of Exercise in whole or in part and retain or have returned, as the case may be, any portion of this Warrant that has not been exercised pursuant to such Notice of Exercise; provided that the rescission of a Notice


of Exercise shall not affect the Company’s obligation to make any payments that have accrued prior to the date of such notice pursuant to this Section 1(b) or otherwise, and/or (y) switch some or all of such Notice of Exercise from a cash exercise to a Cashless Exercise.

(c)       Partial Exercise. This Warrant shall be exercisable, either in its entirety or, from time to time, for part of the number of Warrant Shares referenced by this Warrant. If this Warrant is submitted in connection with any exercise pursuant to Section 1 and the number of Warrant Shares represented by this Warrant submitted for exercise is greater than the actual number of Warrant Shares being acquired upon such an exercise and the Holder elects to receive a replacement Warrant, then the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after any exercise and at its own expense, issue a new Warrant of like tenor representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant, less the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is exercised.

(d)       Disputes. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price or the arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall promptly issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares that are not disputed and resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 16.

2.ISSUANCE OF WARRANT SHARES

(a)       The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares will, upon issuance in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, be (i) duly authorized, fully paid and non-assessable, and (ii) free from all liens, charges and security interests, with the exception of claims arising through the acts or omissions of any Holder and except as arising from applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws, or applicable Canadian provincial securities laws.

(b)       The Company shall register this Warrant upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose in the name of the record Holder of such Warrant from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the record Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner thereof for the purpose of any exercise thereof, any distribution to the Holder thereof and for all other purposes.

(c)       The Company will not, by amendment of its articles of incorporation, by-laws or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, amalgamation, arrangement 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 to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant and in the taking of all action necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder to exercise this Warrant, or against impairment of such rights.

3.ADJUSTMENTS OF EXERCISE PRICE, NUMBER AND TYPE OF WARRANT SHARES


(a)       The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain events described in this Section 3. If the Company does not have the requisite number of authorized but unissued Common Shares to make any adjustment, then the Company shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, take all action necessary to increase the Company’s authorized Common Shares to an amount sufficient to allow the Company to have the requisite number of authorized Common Shares to allow for such adjustment.

(i)

Subdivision or Combination of Common Shares. In case the Company shall at any time subdivide (whether by way of stock dividend, stock split or otherwise) its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Shares shall be proportionately increased, and conversely, in case the outstanding Common Shares of the Company shall be combined (whether by way of stock combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Shares shall be proportionately decreased. The Exercise Price and the Warrant Shares, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of any successive event or events described in this Section 3(a)(i).

(ii)

Subsequent Rights Offerings.  In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 3(a) above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Common Stock Equivalents or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).


(iii)

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, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this 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, that to the extent that the Holder's right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the 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 the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).

(iv)

Fundamental Transaction. If any recapitalization, reclassification or reorganization of the capital of the Company, any consolidation or merger, amalgamation or arrangement of the Company with another corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets shall be effected in such a way that holders of Common Shares shall be entitled to receive shares, other securities, or other assets or property (a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, as a condition of such Fundamental Transaction, lawful and adequate provisions shall be made by the Company whereby the Holder hereof shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive (in lieu of the Common Shares of the Company immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant) such shares, other securities or other assets or property as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of outstanding Common Shares equal to the number of such shares immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable assuming the full exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant. In the event of any Fundamental Transaction, appropriate provision shall be made by the Company with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of this Warrant to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustments of the Exercise


Price and of the number of shares purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the corresponding registration rights contained in the Registration Rights Agreement) shall thereafter be applicable, in relation to any shares, other securities, or assets or property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise hereof. The Company will not effect any such consolidation, merger, amalgamation, arrangement or sale unless, prior to the consummation thereof, the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger, amalgamation, arrangement or the entity purchasing such assets shall assume by written instrument reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder executed and mailed or delivered to the registered Holder hereof at the last address of such Holder appearing on the books of the Company, the obligation to deliver to such Holder such shares, other securities, or assets or property as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such Holder may be entitled to purchase. If there is a Fundamental Transaction, then the Company shall cause to be mailed to the Holder at its last address as it shall appear on the books and records of the Company, at least 10 calendar days before the effective date of the Fundamental Transaction, a notice stating the date on which such Fundamental Transaction is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Shares of record shall be entitled to exchange their Common Shares for shares, other securities, assets or property delivered upon such Fundamental Transaction; provided, however, 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. The Holder is entitled to exercise this Warrant during the 10 calendar-day period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice, provided such exercise is in compliance with all applicable corporate and securities laws. In any event, the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger, amalgamation or arrangement, or the entity purchasing such assets shall be deemed to assume such obligation to deliver to such Holder such shares, other securities, or assets or property even in the absence of a written instrument assuming such obligation to the extent such assumption occurs by operation of law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event of a Fundamental Transaction, the Company or any Successor Entity (as defined below) shall, at the Holder’s option, exercisable at any time concurrently with, or within 30 days after, the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction (or, if later, the date of the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction), purchase this Warrant from the Holder by paying to the Holder an amount of cash equal to the Black Scholes Value (as defined below) of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date of the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction; provided, however, that, if the Fundamental Transaction is not within the Company's control, including not approved by the Company's Board of Directors, the Holder shall only be entitled to receive from the


Company or any Successor Entity the same type or form of consideration (and in the same proportion), at the Black Scholes Value of the unexercised portion of this Warrant, that is being offered and paid to the holders of Common Stock of the Company in connection with the Fundamental Transaction, whether that consideration be in the form of cash, stock or any combination thereof, or whether the holders of Common Stock are given the choice to receive from among alternative forms of consideration in connection with the Fundamental Transaction; provided, further, that if holders of Common Stock of the Company are not offered or paid any consideration in such Fundamental Transaction, such holders of Common Stock will be deemed to have received common stock of the Successor Entity (which Successor Entity may be the Company following such Fundamental Transaction) in such Fundamental Transaction.  “Black Scholes Value” means the value of this Warrant based on the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model obtained from the “OV” function on Bloomberg determined as of the day of consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction for pricing purposes and reflecting (A) a risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date, (B) an expected volatility equal to the 100 day volatility obtained from the HVT function on Bloomberg (determined utilizing a 365 day annualization factor) as of the Trading Day immediately following the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction, (C) the underlying price per share used in such calculation shall be the highest VWAP during the period beginning on the Trading Day immediately preceding the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction (or the consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, if earlier) and ending on the Trading Day of the Holder’s request pursuant to this Section 3(a)(iv), (D) a remaining option time equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date and (E) a zero cost of borrow. The payment of the Black Scholes Value will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds (or such other consideration) within the later of (i) five Business Days of the Holder’s election and (ii) the date of consummation of the Fundamental Transaction. The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3(a)(iv) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the Holder, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this 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 the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall be added to the term “Company” under this Warrant (so that from and after the occurrence or consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, each and every provision of this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to each of the Company and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally), and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally with the Company, may exercise every right and power of the Company prior thereto and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities shall assume all of the obligations of the Company prior thereto under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if the Company and such Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally, had been named as the Company herein. For the avoidance of doubt, the Holder shall be entitled to the benefits of the provisions of this Section 3(a)(iv) regardless of (i) whether the Company has sufficient authorized shares of Common Stock for the issuance of Warrant Shares and/or (ii) whether a Fundamental Transaction occurs prior to the Initial Exercise Date.

(b)       Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment pursuant to this Section 3, the Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to the Holder of this Warrant a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Company shall promptly furnish or cause to be furnished to such Holder a like certificate setting forth: (i) such adjustments and readjustments; and (ii) the number of shares and/or the amount, if any, of other securities, assets or property which at the time would be received upon the exercise of the Warrant.

(c)       Certain Events. If any event occurs as to which the other provisions of this Section 3 are not strictly applicable but the lack of any adjustment would not fairly protect the purchase rights of the Holder under this Warrant in accordance with the basic intent and principles of such provisions, or if strictly applicable would not fairly protect the purchase rights of the Holder under this Warrant in accordance with the basic intent and principles of such provisions, then the Board of Directors will, in good faith, make an appropriate adjustment to protect the rights of the Holder,


provided that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 3(c) will increase the Exercise Price or decrease the number of Warrant Shares except as determined pursuant to this Section 3.

4.RESTRICTION ON EXERCISE

(a)       Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and the Holder shall not be entitled to exercise this Warrant for a number of Warrant Shares in excess of that number of Warrant Shares that, upon giving effect or immediately prior to such exercise, would cause (i) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder, its Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act to exceed [4.99][9.99]% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company following such exercise, or (ii) the combined voting power of the securities of the Company beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act to exceed [4.99][9.99]% of the combined voting power of all of the securities of the Company then outstanding following such exercise. For purposes of this Warrant, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Form 10-Q or Form 10-K, as the case may be, filed with the Commission prior to the date hereof, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other notice by the Company or its transfer agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written request of the Holder, the Company shall within three (3) Trading Days confirm in writing or by electronic mail to the 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 the Holder since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. By written notice to the Company, the Holder may from time to time increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage specified in such notice; provided that any such increase will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company. For purposes of this Section 4(a), the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock or voting securities beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act shall include the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock that would be issuable upon (x) exercise of the remaining unexercised and non-cancelled portion of this Warrant by the Holder and (y) exercise or conversion of the unexercised, non-converted or non-cancelled portion of any other securities of the Company that do not have voting power (including without limitation any securities of the Company that would entitle the holder thereof to acquire at any time Common Stock, including without limitation any debt, preferred stock, right, option, warrant or other instrument that is at any time convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to receive, Common Stock), is subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein and is beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates and other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act.


(b)       This Section 4 shall not restrict the number of shares of Common Stock that a Holder may receive or beneficially own in order to determine the amount of securities or other consideration that such Holder may receive in the event of a Fundamental Transaction as contemplated in Section 3(a)(iv) of this Warrant.

5.TRANSFERS AND EXCHANGES OF WARRANT AND WARRANT SHARES

(a)       Registration of Transfers and Exchanges. Subject to Section 5(c), upon the Holder’s surrender of this Warrant, with a duly executed copy of the Form of Assignment attached as Exhibit C, to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company at its principal offices or at such other office or agency as the Company may specify in writing to the Holder, the Company shall register the transfer of all or any portion of this Warrant.

(b)       Warrant Exchangeable for Different Denominations. The Holder may exchange this Warrant for a new Warrant or Warrants, in substantially the form of this Warrant, evidencing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares which may then be purchased hereunder, each of such new Warrants to be dated the date of such exchange and to represent the right to purchase such number of Warrant Shares as shall be designated by the Holder. The Holder shall surrender this Warrant with duly executed instructions regarding such re-certification of this Warrant to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company at its principal offices or at such other office or agency as the Company may specify in writing to the Holder.

(c)       Restrictions on Transfers. This Warrant may not be transferred at any time without (i) registration under the Securities Act and all applicable state securities laws, or (ii) the availability of an exemption from such registration together with a written opinion of legal counsel addressed to the Company that the proposed transfer of the Warrant may be effected without registration under the Securities Act, which opinion will be in form and substance and from counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company. In addition, the Warrant and any Warrant Shares that have been issued upon exercise of the Warrant, may not be transferred at any time to any person located or resident in Canada except in compliance with all applicable Canadian securities laws.

(d)       Permitted Transfers and Assignments. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Section 5, the Holder may transfer, with or without consideration, this Warrant or any of the Warrant Shares (or a portion thereof) to the Holder’s Affiliates without obtaining the opinion from counsel that may be required by Section 5(c)(ii), provided that the Holder delivers to the Company and its counsel certifications, documentation, and other assurances, acceptable to the Company, and reasonably required by the Holder’s counsel to enable the Holder’s counsel to render an opinion to the Company’s Transfer Agent that such transfer does not violate applicable U.S. federal securities laws, and provided that no transferee is located or a resident in Canada or such transfer is in compliance with all applicable Canadian securities laws.

WARRANT TO PURCHASE COMMON SHARES

ProMIS Neurosciences Inc., a corporation incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) (the “Company”), for value received on [  ], 2024 (the “Issuance Date”), hereby issues to [  ] (the “Holder”) this Warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase [ ] Common Shares (as hereinafter defined) (each such share as from time to time adjusted as hereinafter provided being a “Warrant Share” and all such shares being the “Warrant Shares”), at the Exercise Price (as defined below), as from time to time adjusted as hereinafter provided, on or before the Expiration Date (as defined below), all subject to the following terms and conditions. This Warrant is one of a series of warrants of like tenor that have been issued in connection with the Company’s private offering solely to accredited investors (as defined under applicable U.S. federal securities laws) of units of Common Shares and Warrants in accordance with, and subject to, the terms and conditions described in that certain Unit Purchase Agreement between the Company and each purchaser thereunder, inclusive of all exhibits and all amendments, supplements and appendices thereto (the “Purchase Agreement”).

As used in this Warrant, (i) “Business Day” means any day other than Saturday, Sunday or any other day on which commercial banks in the City of New York, New York or the City of Toronto Ontario, are authorized or required by law or executive order to close; (ii) “Common Shares” means the common shares of the Company, no par value; (iii) “Exercise Price” means U.S. $2.50 per Warrant Share, subject to adjustment as provided herein; (iv) “Exercise

1.

DURATION AND EXERCISE OF WARRANTS

(a)       Exercise Period. Commencing on the Exercise Commencement Date, the Holder may, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, exercise this Warrant in whole or in part on any Business Day on or before 11:59 P.M., Eastern Time, on the Expiration Date, at which time this Warrant shall become void and of no value.

(b)       Exercise Procedures.

(i)       While this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable in accordance with Section 1(a), in addition to the manner set forth in Section 1(b)(ii) below, the Holder may exercise this Warrant in whole or in part at any time and from time to time by delivery to the Company of a duly executed copy of the Notice of Exercise attached as Exhibit A (the “Notice of Exercise”).  Within the earlier of (i) two (2) Trading Days and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period (as defined below) following the date of exercise as aforesaid (the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”), the Holder shall deliver the aggregate Exercise Price for the shares specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank unless the cashless exercise procedure specified in Section 1(b)(ii) below is specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise.  No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise be required.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation as soon as reasonably practicable of the date on which 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.  The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise within one (1) Business Day of receipt of such notice.  As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary trading market with respect to the Common Stock as in effect on the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise.

(ii)       If at any time a registration statement is not effective or available (as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement) for the resale by the Holder of all of the Warrant


Shares, then the Holder may, in its sole discretion, exercise all or any part of the Warrant in a “cashless” or “net-issue” exercise (a “Cashless Exercise”) by delivering to the Company a Notice of Exercise, in which case, the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder upon such exercise shall be calculated using the following formula:

 

X      =

Y * (A - B)

 

 

 

A

 

with: 

X =

the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder

Y =

the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which the Warrant is being exercised

A =

the fair value per Common Share on the date of exercise of this Warrant

B =

the then-current Exercise Price of the Warrant

Solely for the purposes of this paragraph, “fair value” per Common Share shall mean the Closing Price (as defined below) per Common Share for the  Trading Day immediately preceding the date on which the Notice of Exercise is deemed to have been sent to the Company. “Closing Price” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies:  (a) if the Common Shares are then listed on a U.S. national securities exchange, the closing price per Common Share for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the primary exchange in the United States on which the Common Shares are then listed; (b) if prices for the Common Shares are then quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board or any tier of the OTC Markets in the United States, the closing bid price per Common Share for such date (or the nearest preceding date) so quoted; or (c) if prices for the Common Shares are then reported in the “Pink Sheets” published by the National Quotation Bureau Incorporated (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices) in the United States, the most recent closing bid price per share of the Common Shares so reported. If the Common Shares are not publicly traded as set forth above, the “fair value” per Common Share shall be reasonably and in good faith determined by the board of directors of the Company (the “Board of Directors”) as of the date which the Notice of Exercise is deemed to have been sent to the Company.

For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a Cashless Exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for such shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant was originally issued.

(iii)       Upon the exercise of this Warrant in compliance with the provisions of this Section 1(b), the Company shall cause the Warrant Shares purchased hereunder to be transmitted by the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company (the “DTC”) through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”), if the Transfer Agent is then a participant in such system, and either (A) there is an effective and available registration


statement permitting the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder (as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement) and the Holder has contracted for such a resale, or (B) the Warrant Shares are eligible for resale by the Holder without volume or manner-of-sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming Cashless Exercise of the Warrants), and otherwise, at the election of the Holder, by physical delivery of a certificate or a direct registration system account statement (“DRS Statement”), registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise by the Holder. Each exercise of this Warrant shall be effective immediately prior to the close of business on the date (the “Date of Exercise”) that the Notice of Exercise has been delivered, so long as the Aggregate Exercise Price (if any) has been delivered within one Trading Day of the delivery of the Notice of Exercise . On or before the first (1st) Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received a Notice of Exercise, the Company shall transmit by electronic mail an acknowledgment of confirmation of receipt of such Notice of Exercise, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, to the Holder and the Transfer Agent, which confirmation shall constitute an instruction to the Transfer Agent to process such Notice of Exercise in accordance with the terms herein. On or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Company shall cause the Transfer Agent to issue and deliver via DWAC in connection with any resale of such Warrant Shares with respect to which the Holder has instructed a broker to sell such Warrant Shares, and for which the Holder has not yet settled (or via reputable overnight courier to the address as specified in the Notice of Exercise, a certificate or a DRS Statement, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee), for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder shall be entitled pursuant to such exercise, the Company shall cause the Transfer Agent to deliver the Warrant Shares to the Holder (or its designee). From the Issuance Date through and including the Expiration Date, the Company shall maintain a transfer agent that participates in DTC’s Fast Automated Securities Transfer (“FAST”) Program. Upon delivery of a Notice of Exercise; provided that the payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price (if any) has been made within one (1) Trading Day of the Notice of Exercise, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the certificates or DRS Statements evidencing such Warrant Shares, or crediting of such Holder’s (or designee’s) account with DTC (as the case may be). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company’s failure to deliver Warrant Shares to the Holder on or prior to the Warrant Share Delivery Date shall not be deemed to be a breach of this Warrant.

(iv)       If the Company shall fail, for any reason or for no reason, on or prior to the Share Delivery Date, to deliver to the Holder the Warrant Shares subject to a Notice of Exercise and the applicable Aggregate Exercise Price has been delivered (other than in the case of a Cashless Exercise), then the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each US$1,000 of Warrant Shares subject to such exercise (based on the fair value of the Common Shares on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise), US$10 per Trading Day for each Trading Day after such Share Delivery Date until such Warrant Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise. In addition to the foregoing, if the Company fails to deliver the Warrant Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 1(b)(iii) above pursuant to an exercise on or before the Share Delivery Date, and if on or after such Share Delivery Date the Holder acquires (in an open market transaction, stock loan or otherwise) Common Shares corresponding to all or any portion of the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise that the Holder is entitled to receive from the Company and has not received from the Company in connection with such


failure to deliver (a “Buy-In”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Holder, the Company shall, within two (2) Business Days after the Holder’s request and in the Holder’s discretion, either (i) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, stock loan costs and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) for the Common Shares so acquired (including, without limitation, by any other Person in respect, or on behalf, of the Holder) (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to so issue and deliver such certificate or DRS Statement (and to issue such Warrant Shares) or credit the balance account of such Holder or such Holder’s designee, as applicable, with DTC for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise hereunder (as the case may be) (and to issue such Warrant Shares) shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to so issue and deliver to the Holder a certificate or DRS Statement representing such Warrant Shares or credit the balance account of such Holder or such Holder’s designee, as applicable, with DTC for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise hereunder (as the case may be) and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of Warrant Shares multiplied by (B) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed. Nothing shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity, including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates or DRS Statements representing Warrant Shares (or to electronically deliver such Warrant Shares) upon the exercise of this Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof. In addition to the foregoing rights, (i) if the Company fails to deliver the applicable number of Warrant Shares upon an exercise pursuant to Section 1 by the applicable Share Delivery Date, then the Holder shall have the right to rescind such exercise in whole or in part and retain and/or have the Company return, as the case may be, any portion of this Warrant that has not been exercised pursuant to such Notice of Exercise; provided that the rescission of an exercise shall not affect the Company’s obligation to make any payments that have accrued prior to the date of such Notice of Exercise pursuant to this Section 1(b) or otherwise, and (ii) if a registration statement covering the resale of the Warrant Shares that are subject to a Notice of Exercise is not available for the resale of such Warrant Shares and the Holder has submitted a Notice of Exercise prior to receiving notice of the non-availability of such registration statement and the Company has not already delivered the Warrant Shares underlying such Notice of Exercise electronically without any restrictive legend by crediting such aggregate number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its DWAC system, the Holder shall have the option, by delivery of notice to the Company, to (x) rescind such Notice of Exercise in whole or in part and retain or have returned, as the case may be, any portion of this Warrant that has not been exercised pursuant to such Notice of Exercise; provided that the rescission of a Notice of Exercise shall not affect the Company’s obligation to make any payments that have accrued prior to the date of such notice pursuant to this Section 1(b) or otherwise, and/or (y) switch some or all of such Notice of Exercise from a cash exercise to a Cashless Exercise.

(c)       Partial Exercise. This Warrant shall be exercisable, either in its entirety or, from time to time, for part of the number of Warrant Shares referenced by this Warrant. If this Warrant is submitted in connection with any exercise pursuant to Section 1 and the number of Warrant Shares represented by this Warrant submitted for exercise is greater than the actual number of Warrant Shares being acquired upon such an exercise and the Holder elects to receive a


replacement Warrant, then the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after any exercise and at its own expense, issue a new Warrant of like tenor representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant, less the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is exercised.

(d)       Disputes. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price or the arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall promptly issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares that are not disputed and resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 16.

2.

ISSUANCE OF WARRANT SHARES

(a)       The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares will, upon issuance in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, be (i) duly authorized, fully paid and non-assessable, and (ii) free from all liens, charges and security interests, with the exception of claims arising through the acts or omissions of any Holder and except as arising from applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws, or applicable Canadian provincial securities laws.

(b)       The Company shall register this Warrant upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose in the name of the record Holder of such Warrant from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the record Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner thereof for the purpose of any exercise thereof, any distribution to the Holder thereof and for all other purposes.

(c)       The Company will not, by amendment of its articles of incorporation, by-laws or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, amalgamation, arrangement 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 to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant and in the taking of all action necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder to exercise this Warrant, or against impairment of such rights.

3.

ADJUSTMENTS OF EXERCISE PRICE, NUMBER AND TYPE OF WARRANT SHARES

(a)       The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain events described in this Section 3. If the Company does not have the requisite number of authorized but unissued Common Shares to make any adjustment, then the Company shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, take all action necessary to increase the Company’s authorized Common Shares to an amount sufficient to allow the Company to have the requisite number of authorized Common Shares to allow for such adjustment.


(i)

Subdivision or Combination of Common Shares. In case the Company shall at any time subdivide (whether by way of stock dividend, stock split or otherwise) its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Shares shall be proportionately increased, and conversely, in case the outstanding Common Shares of the Company shall be combined (whether by way of stock combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Shares shall be proportionately decreased. The Exercise Price and the Warrant Shares, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of any successive event or events described in this Section 3(a)(i).

(ii)

Subsequent Rights Offerings.  In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 3(a) above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Common Stock Equivalents or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).

(iii)

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, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the


Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this 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, that to the extent that the Holder's right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the 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 the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).

(iv)

Fundamental Transaction. If any recapitalization, reclassification or reorganization of the capital of the Company, any consolidation or merger, amalgamation or arrangement of the Company with another corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets shall be effected in such a way that holders of Common Shares shall be entitled to receive shares, other securities, or other assets or property (a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, as a condition of such Fundamental Transaction, lawful and adequate provisions shall be made by the Company whereby the Holder hereof shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive (in lieu of the Common Shares of the Company immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant) such shares, other securities or other assets or property as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of outstanding Common Shares equal to the number of such shares immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable assuming the full exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant. In the event of any Fundamental Transaction, appropriate provision shall be made by the Company with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of this Warrant to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustments of the Exercise Price and of the number of shares purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the corresponding registration rights contained in the Registration Rights Agreement) shall thereafter be applicable, in relation to any shares, other securities, or assets or property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise hereof. The Company will not effect any such consolidation, merger, amalgamation, arrangement or sale unless, prior to the consummation thereof, the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger, amalgamation, arrangement or the entity purchasing such assets shall assume by written instrument reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder


executed and mailed or delivered to the registered Holder hereof at the last address of such Holder appearing on the books of the Company, the obligation to deliver to such Holder such shares, other securities, or assets or property as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such Holder may be entitled to purchase. If there is a Fundamental Transaction, then the Company shall cause to be mailed to the Holder at its last address as it shall appear on the books and records of the Company, at least 10 calendar days before the effective date of the Fundamental Transaction, a notice stating the date on which such Fundamental Transaction is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Shares of record shall be entitled to exchange their Common Shares for shares, other securities, assets or property delivered upon such Fundamental Transaction; provided, however, 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. The Holder is entitled to exercise this Warrant during the 10 calendar-day period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice, provided such exercise is in compliance with all applicable corporate and securities laws. In any event, the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger, amalgamation or arrangement, or the entity purchasing such assets shall be deemed to assume such obligation to deliver to such Holder such shares, other securities, or assets or property even in the absence of a written instrument assuming such obligation to the extent such assumption occurs by operation of law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event of a Fundamental Transaction, the Company or any Successor Entity (as defined below) shall, at the Holder’s option, exercisable at any time concurrently with, or within 30 days after, the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction (or, if later, the date of the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction), purchase this Warrant from the Holder by paying to the Holder an amount of cash equal to the Black Scholes Value (as defined below) of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date of the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction; provided, however, that, if the Fundamental Transaction is not within the Company's control, including not approved by the Company's Board of Directors, the Holder shall only be entitled to receive from the Company or any Successor Entity the same type or form of consideration (and in the same proportion), at the Black Scholes Value of the unexercised portion of this Warrant, that is being offered and paid to the holders of Common Stock of the Company in connection with the Fundamental Transaction, whether that consideration be in the form of cash, stock or any combination thereof, or whether the holders of Common Stock are given the choice to receive from among alternative forms of consideration in connection with the Fundamental Transaction; provided, further, that if holders of Common Stock of the Company are not offered or paid any consideration in such Fundamental Transaction, such holders of Common


Stock will be deemed to have received common stock of the Successor Entity (which Successor Entity may be the Company following such Fundamental Transaction) in such Fundamental Transaction.  “Black Scholes Value” means the value of this Warrant based on the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model obtained from the “OV” function on Bloomberg determined as of the day of consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction for pricing purposes and reflecting (A) a risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date, (B) an expected volatility equal to the 100 day volatility obtained from the HVT function on Bloomberg (determined utilizing a 365 day annualization factor) as of the Trading Day immediately following the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction, (C) the underlying price per share used in such calculation shall be the highest VWAP during the period beginning on the Trading Day immediately preceding the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction (or the consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, if earlier) and ending on the Trading Day of the Holder’s request pursuant to this Section 3(a)(iv), (D) a remaining option time equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date and (E) a zero cost of borrow. The payment of the Black Scholes Value will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds (or such other consideration) within the later of (i) five Business Days of the Holder’s election and (ii) the date of consummation of the Fundamental Transaction. The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3(a)(iv) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the Holder, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this 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 the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall be added to the term “Company” under this Warrant (so that from and after the occurrence or consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, each and every provision of this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to each of the Company and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally), and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally with the Company, may exercise every right and power of the Company prior thereto and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities shall assume all of the obligations of the Company prior thereto under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if the Company and such Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally, had been named as the Company herein. For the avoidance of doubt, the Holder shall be entitled to the benefits of the provisions of this Section 3(a)(iv) regardless of (i) whether the Company has sufficient authorized shares of Common Stock for the issuance of Warrant Shares and/or (ii) whether a Fundamental Transaction occurs prior to the Initial Exercise Date.

(b)       Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment pursuant to this Section 3, the Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to the Holder of this Warrant a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Company shall promptly furnish or cause to be furnished to such Holder a like certificate setting forth: (i) such adjustments and readjustments; and (ii) the number of shares and/or the amount, if any, of other securities, assets or property which at the time would be received upon the exercise of the Warrant.

(c)       Certain Events. If any event occurs as to which the other provisions of this Section 3 are not strictly applicable but the lack of any adjustment would not fairly protect the purchase rights of the Holder under this Warrant in accordance with the basic intent and principles of such provisions, or if strictly applicable would not fairly protect the purchase rights of the Holder under this Warrant in accordance with the basic intent and principles of such provisions, then the Board of Directors will, in good faith, make an appropriate adjustment to protect the rights of the Holder, provided that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 3(c) will increase the Exercise Price or decrease the number of Warrant Shares except as determined pursuant to this Section 3.

4.

RESTRICTION ON EXERCISE

(a)       Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and the Holder shall not be entitled to exercise this Warrant for a number of Warrant Shares in excess of that number of Warrant Shares that, upon giving effect or immediately prior to such exercise, would cause (i) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder, its Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d)


of the Exchange Act to exceed [4.99][9.99]% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company following such exercise, or (ii) the combined voting power of the securities of the Company beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act to exceed [4.99][9.99]% of the combined voting power of all of the securities of the Company then outstanding following such exercise. For purposes of this Warrant, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Form 10-Q or Form 10-K, as the case may be, filed with the Commission prior to the date hereof, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other notice by the Company or its transfer agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written request of the Holder, the Company shall within three (3) Trading Days confirm in writing or by electronic mail to the 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 the Holder since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. By written notice to the Company, the Holder may from time to time increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage specified in such notice; provided that any such increase will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company. For purposes of this Section 4(a), the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock or voting securities beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act shall include the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock that would be issuable upon (x) exercise of the remaining unexercised and non-cancelled portion of this Warrant by the Holder and (y) exercise or conversion of the unexercised, non-converted or non-cancelled portion of any other securities of the Company that do not have voting power (including without limitation any securities of the Company that would entitle the holder thereof to acquire at any time Common Stock, including without limitation any debt, preferred stock, right, option, warrant or other instrument that is at any time convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to receive, Common Stock), is subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein and is beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates and other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act.

(b)       This Section 4 shall not restrict the number of shares of Common Stock that a Holder may receive or beneficially own in order to determine the amount of securities or other consideration that such Holder may receive in the event of a Fundamental Transaction as contemplated in Section 3(a)(iv) of this Warrant.

5.

TRANSFERS AND EXCHANGES OF WARRANT AND WARRANT SHARES

(a)       Registration of Transfers and Exchanges. Subject to Section 5(c), upon the Holder’s surrender of this Warrant, with a duly executed copy of the Form of Assignment attached as Exhibit C, to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company at its principal offices or at such other


office or agency as the Company may specify in writing to the Holder, the Company shall register the transfer of all or any portion of this Warrant. Upon such registration of transfer, the Company shall issue a new Warrant, in substantially the form of this Warrant, evidencing the acquisition rights transferred to the transferee and a new Warrant, in similar form, evidencing the remaining acquisition rights, if any, not transferred, to the Holder requesting the transfer.

(b)       Warrant Exchangeable for Different Denominations. The Holder may exchange this Warrant for a new Warrant or Warrants, in substantially the form of this Warrant, evidencing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares which may then be purchased hereunder, each of such new Warrants to be dated the date of such exchange and to represent the right to purchase such number of Warrant Shares as shall be designated by the Holder. The Holder shall surrender this Warrant with duly executed instructions regarding such re-certification of this Warrant to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company at its principal offices or at such other office or agency as the Company may specify in writing to the Holder.

(c)       Restrictions on Transfers. This Warrant may not be transferred at any time without (i) registration under the Securities Act and all applicable state securities laws, or (ii) the availability of an exemption from such registration together with a written opinion of legal counsel addressed to the Company that the proposed transfer of the Warrant may be effected without registration under the Securities Act, which opinion will be in form and substance and from counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company. In addition, the Warrant and any Warrant Shares that have been issued upon exercise of the Warrant, may not be transferred at any time to any person located or resident in Canada except in compliance with all applicable Canadian securities laws.

(d)       Permitted Transfers and Assignments. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Section 5, the Holder may transfer, with or without consideration, this Warrant or any of the Warrant Shares (or a portion thereof) to the Holder’s Affiliates without obtaining the opinion from counsel that may be required by Section 5(c)(ii), provided that the Holder delivers to the Company and its counsel certifications, documentation, and other assurances, acceptable to the Company, and reasonably required by the Holder’s counsel to enable the Holder’s counsel to render an opinion to the Company’s Transfer Agent that such transfer does not violate applicable U.S. federal securities laws, and provided that no transferee is located or a resident in Canada or such transfer is in compliance with all applicable Canadian securities laws.

6.

MUTILATED OR MISSING WARRANT CERTIFICATE

If this Warrant is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, upon request by the Holder, the Company will, at the Holder’s expense, issue, in exchange for and upon cancellation of the mutilated Warrant, or in substitution for the lost, stolen or destroyed Warrant, a new Warrant, in substantially the form of this Warrant, representing the right to acquire the equivalent number of Warrant Shares; provided, however, that, as a prerequisite to the issuance of a substitute Warrant, the Company may require satisfactory evidence of loss, theft or destruction as well as an indemnity from the Holder of a lost, stolen or destroyed Warrant.

7.

PAYMENT OF TAXES


The Company will pay all transfer and stock issuance taxes attributable to the preparation, issuance and delivery of this Warrant and the Warrant Shares including, without limitation, all documentary and stamp taxes; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax in respect of the transfer of this Warrant, or the issuance or delivery of certificates for Warrant Shares or other securities in respect of the Warrant Shares to any person or entity other than to the Holder.

Each certificate or DRS Statement for Warrant Shares initially issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, and each certificate or DRS Statement for Warrant Shares issued to any subsequent transferee of any such certificate or DRS Statement, shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY [AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON THE EXERCISE OF THESE SECURITIES] HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND SUCH SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED UNLESS (1) A REGISTRATION STATEMENT WITH RESPECT THERETO IS EFFECTIVE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR (2) AN EXEMPTION FROM SUCH REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS IS AVAILABLE AND THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE HOLDER OF SUCH SECURITIES, WHICH COUNSEL AND OPINION ARE SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY, THAT SUCH SECURITIES MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED, OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE MANNER CONTEMPLATED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.


[and if to Canadian Purchasers: “UNLESS PERMITTED UNDER SECURITIES LEGISLATION, THE HOLDER OF THIS SECURITY MUST NOT TRADE THE SECURITY BEFORE [THE DATE WHICH IS FOUR MONTHS AND ONE DAY AFTER THE CLOSING DATE.”]

The foregoing legends shall be removed pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement.

The Company will take all such commercially 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.

ProMIS Neurosciences Announces Up to $122.7 Million Private Placement Financing

$30.3 million financing upfront with up to an additional $92.4 million tied to exercise of warrants, with certain of the warrants subject to shareholder approval

Fundraise supports development of novel antibody PMN310 for Alzheimer’s Disease patients

Proceeds expected to support Company beyond 6 month and 12 month data from the PMN310 Phase Ib study in Alzheimer’s patients

TORONTO, Ontario and CAMBRIDGE, Massachusetts – July 26, 2024 – ProMIS Neurosciences Inc. (Nasdaq: PMN) (“ProMIS” or the “Company”), a biotechnology company focused on the generation and development of antibody therapeutics targeting toxic misfolded proteins in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and multiple system atrophy (MSA), today announced that it has entered into a unit purchase agreement with certain new and existing institutional and accredited investors to issue and sell an aggregate of $30.3 million of (a) common share units (the “Common Share Units”), with each Common Share Unit consisting of (i) one Common Share, without par value (a “Common Share”), (ii) one Tranche A Common Share purchase warrant to purchase one Common Share, (iii) one Tranche B Common Share purchase warrant to purchase one Common Share and (iv) one Tranche C Common Share purchase warrant to purchase one Common Share (each, a “Warrant”, collectively, the “Warrants”) and, for certain investors, (b) pre-funded units (the “Pre-Funded Units”, and together with the Common Share Units, the “Units”), with each Pre-Funded Unit consisting of (i) one Pre-Funded Warrant to purchase one Common Share, (ii) one Tranche A Common Share purchase warrant to purchase one Common Share, (iii) one Tranche B Common Share purchase warrant to purchase one Common Share and (iv) one Tranche C Common Share purchase warrant to purchase one Common Share. The Common Share Units were sold at a price of $2.15 per Unit and the Pre-Funded Units were sold at a price of $2.14 per Unit through a private investment in public equity (“PIPE”) financing.

The Pre-Funded Warrants have an exercise price of $0.01 per Warrant Share, are immediately exercisable and will expire when exercised in full. The Tranche A Common Share purchase warrants have an exercise price of $2.02, are exercisable immediately upon Shareholder Approval (as defined below) and will expire upon the earlier of (i) 18 months or (ii) within 60 days of the public announcement via press release or the filing of a Current Report on Form 8-K of 6-month data from the cohorts treated with single ascending doses of PMN310. The Tranche B Common Share purchase warrants have an exercise price of $2.02, are exercisable immediately upon Shareholder Approval (as defined below) and will expire upon the earlier of (i) 30 months or (ii) within 60 days of the public announcement via press release or the filing of a Current Report on Form 8-K of 12-month data from the cohorts treated with single ascending doses of PMN310. The Tranche C Common Share purchase warrants have an exercise price of $2.50, are immediately exercisable and will expire July 31, 2029. Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), the exercise of the Tranche A and Tranche B Common Share purchase warrants is subject to shareholder approval (the “Shareholder Approval”).

The PIPE financing included participation from new and existing healthcare specialist investors such as Great Point Partners, LLC, Armistice Capital, Ally Bridge Group, Sphera Healthcare, and other institutional and individual accredited investors.

ProMIS anticipates the gross proceeds from the PIPE financing to be $30.3 million, before deducting fees to the placement agents and other offering expenses payable by the Company, and up to an additional $92.4 million in gross proceeds if the Warrants are fully exercised for cash, subject to Shareholder Approval of certain of the Warrants. The financing is expected to close on July 31, 2024, subject to customary closing conditions.

Guggenheim Securities, LLC acted as lead placement agent and Ceros Financial Services, Inc. and Leede Financial Inc. acted as placement agents in the PIPE financing.

Proceeds from the PIPE financing are expected to be used to advance the clinical development of PMN310, ProMIS’ lead therapeutic candidate, as well as for working capital and other general corporate expenses.

The offer and sale of the foregoing securities are being made in a transaction not involving a public offering and have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”), or any state or other applicable jurisdiction’s securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state or other jurisdictions’ securities laws. ProMIS Neurosciences has agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC registering the resale of the Common Shares and the Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants issued in the PIPE financing.
