- 2 -

CONDITION AND ANY PURPORTED TRANSFER PRIOR TO THE SATISFACTION OF THE JERSEY CONSENT CONDITION SHALL BE VOID AB INITIO. Subject to compliance with all applicable securities laws, from and after the date on which the Jersey Consent Condition has been satisfied, the Company shall, or will cause its Transfer Agent to, register the transfer of all or any portion of this Warrant in the Warrant Register, upon surrender of this Warrant, and payment for all applicable transfer taxes (if any). Upon any such registration or transfer, a new warrant to purchase Ordinary Shares in substantially the form of this Warrant (any such new warrant, a “New Warrant”) evidencing the portion of this Warrant so transferred shall be issued to the transferee, and a New Warrant evidencing the remaining portion of this Warrant not so transferred, if any, shall be issued to the transferring Holder. The acceptance of the New Warrant by the transferee thereof shall be deemed the acceptance by such transferee of all of the rights and obligations in respect of the New Warrant that the Holder has in respect of this Warrant. The Company shall, or will cause its Transfer Agent to, prepare, issue, and deliver at the Company’s own expense any New Warrant under this Section 3. Until due presentment for registration of transfer, the Company may treat the registered Holder hereof as the owner and holder of this Warrant for all purposes and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.

4. EXERCISE AND DURATION OF WARRANTS. (a) All or any part of this Warrant shall be exercisable by the registered Holder in any manner permitted by Section 10 of this Warrant at any time and from time to time on or after the Original Issue Date.

(b) The Holder may exercise this Warrant by delivering to the Company (i) an exercise notice, in the form attached as Schedule 1 hereto (the “Exercise Notice”), completed and duly signed, and (ii) payment of the Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised (which may take the form of a “cashless exercise” if so indicated in the Exercise Notice pursuant to Section 10 below), and the date on which the last of such items is delivered to the Company (as determined in accordance with the notice provisions hereof) is an “Exercise Date.” The Holder shall not be required to deliver the original Warrant in order to effect an exercise hereunder. Execution and delivery of the Exercise Notice shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original Warrant and issuance of a New Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares.

5. DELIVERY OF WARRANT SHARES. (a) Upon exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall promptly (but in no event more than two (2) Trading Days (or such earlier settlement period as may be in effect on the Principal Trading Market on the date of delivery of the Exercise Notice) after the Exercise Date (“the Settlement Date”)), upon the request of the Holder, credit such aggregate number of shares of Ordinary Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system, or if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program (the “FAST Program”) or if the certificates or book entry position are required to bear a legend regarding restriction on transferability, issue and dispatch by overnight courier to the address as specified in the Exercise Notice, a certificate or book entry position, registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of shares of Ordinary Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise. The Holder, or any natural person or legal entity (each, a “Person”) permissibly so designated by the Holder to receive Warrant Shares, shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of such Warrant Shares as of the Exercise Date, irrespective of the date such Warrant Shares are credited to the Holder’s DTC account or the date of delivery of the certificates or book entry position evidencing such Warrant Shares, as the case may be.

- 3 -

(b) If by the close of business on the Settlement Date, the Company fails to credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC for such number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled, and if after such Settlement Date and prior to the receipt of such Warrant Shares, the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction, provided such purchases shall be made in a commercially reasonable manner at prevailing market prices) shares of Ordinary Shares to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall, within two Trading Days after the Holder’s request, in the Holder’s sole discretion, either (i) pay in cash to the Holder an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including commercially reasonable brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Ordinary Shares so purchased, at which point the Company’s obligation to deliver such Warrant Shares shall terminate, or (ii) (A) pay in cash to the Holder the amount, if any, by which (1) the Holder’s total purchase price (including commercially reasonable brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Ordinary Shares purchased in the Buy-In exceeds (2) the product of (x) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue, times (y) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed (assuming such sale was executed on commercially reasonable terms at prevailing market prices and, if the sale was executed in multiple transactions, the volume weighted average price), and (B) at the option of the Holder, either (1) reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored (in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or (2) deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Ordinary Shares that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. The provisions of this Section 5(b) shall be the only remedy available to the Holder in the event the Company fails to deliver to the Holder the required number of Warrant Shares in the manner required pursuant to Section 5(a) and a Buy-In occurs. Irrespective of whether there is a Buy-In, no remedy shall be available, notwithstanding the requirements of Section 5(a), unless and until the Company fails to deliver to the Holder the required number of Warrant Shares by the close of business on the Settlement Date.

(c) To the extent permitted by law and subject to Section 5(b), the Company’s obligations to issue and deliver Warrant Shares in accordance with and subject to the terms hereof (including the limitations set forth in Section 11 below) are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation of law by the Holder or any other Person, and irrespective of any other circumstance that might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with the issuance of Warrant Shares. Subject to Section 5(b), nothing herein 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 a book entry position representing shares of Ordinary Shares upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

- 4 -

6. CHARGES, TAXES AND EXPENSES. Issuance and delivery of a book entry position for shares of Ordinary Shares upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax, transfer agent fee or other incidental tax or expense (excluding any applicable stamp duties) in respect of the issuance of such or book entry shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the registration of any certificates for Warrant Shares or the Warrants in a name other than that of the Holder or an Affiliate thereof. The Holder shall be responsible for all other tax liability that may arise as a result of holding or transferring this Warrant or receiving Warrant Shares upon exercise hereof.

7. REPLACEMENT OF WARRANT. If this Warrant is mutilated, lost, stolen, or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation hereof, or in lieu of and substitution for this Warrant, a New Warrant, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft, or destruction (in such case) and, in each case, a customary and reasonable indemnity and surety bond if requested by the Company. Applicants for a New Warrant under such circumstances shall also comply with such other reasonable regulations and procedures and pay such other reasonable third-party costs as the Company may prescribe. If a New Warrant is requested as a result of a mutilation of this Warrant, then the Holder shall deliver such mutilated Warrant to the Company as a condition precedent to the Company’s obligation to issue the New Warrant.

8. RESERVATION OF WARRANT SHARES. The Company covenants that it will at all times while this Warrant is outstanding reserve and keep available out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued and otherwise unreserved Ordinary Shares, solely for the purpose of enabling it to issue Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant as herein provided, the number of Warrant Shares that are then issuable and deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant, free from preemptive rights or any other contingent purchase rights of persons other than the Holder (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 9). The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares so issuable and deliverable shall, upon issuance and the payment of the applicable Exercise Price in accordance with the terms hereof, be duly and validly authorized, issued and fully paid, and nonassessable. The Company will take all such action as may be reasonably necessary to assure that such shares of Ordinary Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation or of any requirements of any securities exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Ordinary Shares may be listed.

9. CERTAIN ADJUSTMENTS. The number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant is subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 9.

(a) Share Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) pays a share dividend on its Ordinary Shares or otherwise makes a distribution on any class of shares, equity or equity equivalent securities that is payable in shares of Ordinary Shares, (ii) subdivides its outstanding shares of Ordinary Shares into a larger number of shares of Ordinary Shares, (iii) combines its outstanding shares of Ordinary Shares into a smaller number of shares of Ordinary Shares or (iv) issues by reclassification of shares any additional shares of Ordinary Shares of the Company, then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of Ordinary Shares (excluding

- 5 -

treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after such event, and the number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant shall be divided by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately before such event (excluding treasury shares, if any) and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after such event (excluding treasury shares, if any). Any adjustment made pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of ordinary shareholders or other security holders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, provided, however, that if such record date shall have been fixed and such dividend is not fully paid on the date fixed therefor, the number of Warrant Shares shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date and thereafter the Warrant Shares shall be adjusted pursuant to this paragraph as of the time of actual payment of such dividends. Any adjustment pursuant to clause (ii), (iii) or (iv) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision, combination or issuance.

(b) Rights Offerings. In addition to (but without duplication of) any adjustments pursuant to Section 9(a) above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any of Ordinary Shares (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 Ordinary Shares acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the ownership limitation described in Section 11) 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 Ordinary Shares 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 ownership limitation described in Section 11, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such Ordinary Shares 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 ownership limitation described in Section 11).

(c) Pro Rata Distributions. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, dividends or distributes to all holders of Ordinary Shares (i) evidences of its indebtedness, (ii) any security (other than a distribution of Ordinary Shares covered by the preceding paragraphs), or (iii) cash or any other asset (in each case, “Distributed Property”), then, upon any exercise of this Warrant that occurs after the record date fixed for determination of ordinary shareholders entitled to receive such distribution, the Holder shall be entitled to receive, in addition to the Warrant Shares otherwise issuable upon such exercise (if applicable), the Distributed Property that such Holder would have been entitled to receive in respect of such number of Warrant Shares had the Holder been the record holder of such Warrant Shares immediately prior to such record date without regard to any limitation on exercise contained therein.

- 6 -

(d) Fundamental Transactions. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, and whether directly or indirectly, and in one or more related transactions (i) the Company effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, in which the Company is not the surviving entity or the ordinary shareholders of the Company immediately prior to such merger or consolidation do not own, directly or indirectly, at least 50% of the voting power of the surviving entity immediately after such merger or consolidation, (ii) the Company effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer or conveyance to another Person of all or substantially all of its assets in one transaction or a series of related transactions, (iii) pursuant to any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person), holders of ordinary shares who tender shares representing more than 50% of the voting power of the ordinary shares of the Company and the Company or such other Person, as applicable, accepts such tender for payment, (iv) the Company consummates an ordinary share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with another Person whereby such other Person acquires more than the 50% of the voting power of the ordinary shares of the Company (except for any such transaction in which the ordinary shareholders of the Company immediately prior to such transaction maintain, in substantially the same proportions, the voting power of such Person immediately after the transaction) or (v) the Company effects any reclassification of the Ordinary Shares or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Ordinary Shares is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (other than as a result of a subdivision or combination of shares of Ordinary Shares covered by Section 9(a) above) (in any such case, a “Fundamental Transaction”), then following such Fundamental Transaction the Holder shall have the right to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant, the same amount and kind of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction if it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, the holder of the number of Warrant Shares then issuable upon exercise in full of this Warrant without regard to any limitations on exercise contained herein (the “Alternate Consideration”). The Company shall not effect any Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the surviving entity or the Alternate Consideration includes securities of another Person unless (x) the Alternate Consideration is solely cash and the Company provides for the simultaneous “cashless exercise” of this Warrant pursuant to Section 10 below or (y) prior to, simultaneously with or promptly following the consummation thereof, any successor to the Company, surviving entity or other Person (including any purchaser of assets of the Company) shall assume the obligation to deliver to the Holder, such Alternate Consideration as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the Holder may be entitled to receive, and the other obligations under this Warrant. The provisions of this paragraph (c) shall similarly apply to subsequent transactions analogous of a Fundamental Transaction type. For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one Ordinary Share in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration, and in any event for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction. If holders of Ordinary Shares are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction.

- 7 -

(e) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 9 shall be made to the nearest share.

(f) Notice of Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment pursuant to this Section 9, the Company at its expense will, at the written request of the Holder, promptly compute such adjustment, in good faith, in accordance with the terms of this Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment, including a statement of the adjusted number or type of Warrant Shares or other securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (as applicable), describing the transactions giving rise to such adjustments and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based. Upon written request, the Company will promptly deliver a copy of each such certificate to the Holder and to the Transfer Agent.

(g) Notice of Corporate Events. If, while this Warrant is outstanding, the Company (i) declares a dividend or any other distribution of cash, securities or other property in respect of its Ordinary Shares, including, without limitation, any granting of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any ordinary shares of the Company or any subsidiary or any asset thereof, (ii) enters into any definitive agreement contemplating or soliciting ordinary shareholder approval for any Fundamental Transaction or (iii) authorizes the voluntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, except if such notice and the contents thereof shall be deemed to constitute material non-public information, the Company shall deliver to the Holder a notice of such transaction at least ten (10) days prior to the applicable record or effective date on which a Person would need to hold Ordinary Shares in order to participate in or vote with respect to such transaction; provided, however, that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be described in such notice. In addition, if while this Warrant is outstanding, the Company enters into any definitive agreement contemplating or solicits ordinary shareholder approval for any Fundamental Transaction contemplated by Section 9(d), other than a Fundamental Transaction under clause (iii) of Section 9(d), the Company shall deliver to the Holder a notice of such Fundamental Transaction at least ten (10) days prior to the date such Fundamental Transaction is consummated. Holder agrees to maintain any information disclosed pursuant to this Section 9(g) in confidence until such information is publicly available and shall comply with applicable law with respect to trading in the Company’s securities following receipt any such information.

10. PAYMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Holder may, in its sole discretion, satisfy its obligation to pay the Exercise Price through a “cashless exercise,” in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares determined as follows:

X = Y [(A-B)/A]

where:

“X” equals the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder;

“Y” equals the total number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised;

- 8 -

“A” equals the last VWAP immediately preceding the time of delivery of the Exercise Notice giving rise to the applicable “cashless exercise,” as set forth in the applicable Exercise Notice (to clarify, the “last VWAP” will be the last VWAP as calculated over an entire Trading Day such that, in the event that this Warrant is exercised at a time that the Trading Market is open, the prior Trading Day’s VWAP shall be used in this calculation); and

“B” equals the Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Warrant Shares at the time of such exercise.

For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under 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 the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant was originally issued (provided that the Commission continues to take the position that such treatment is proper at the time of such exercise).

Except as set forth in Section 12 (payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares), in no event will the exercise of this Warrant be settled in cash.

11. LIMITATIONS ON EXERCISE. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Section 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 which, upon giving effect to such exercise, would cause (i) the aggregate number of shares of Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Ordinary Shares would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, to exceed 9.99% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Ordinary Shares 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 Ordinary Shares would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act to exceed 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 Ordinary Shares, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Ordinary Shares as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or Annual Report on 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 Ordinary Shares 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 Ordinary Shares then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Ordinary Shares 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 Ordinary Shares 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 not in excess of 19.99% 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 11(a), the aggregate number of shares of Ordinary Shares or voting securities beneficially owned by the Holder and its

- 9 -

Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Ordinary Shares would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act shall include the shares of Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Ordinary Shares which 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 which would entitle the holder thereof to acquire at any time Ordinary Shares, including, without limitation, any debt, preferred shares, 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, Ordinary Shares), 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 Ordinary Shares would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act.

(b) This Section 11 shall not restrict the number of shares of Ordinary Shares 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 9 of this Warrant.

12. NO FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional Warrant Shares will be issued in connection with any exercise of this Warrant. In lieu of any fractional shares that would otherwise be issuable, the number of Warrant Shares to be issued shall be rounded down to the next whole number and the Company shall pay the Holder in cash the fair market value (based on the last VWAP immediately preceding the time of delivery of the applicable Exercise Notice) for any such fractional shares.

13. NOTICES. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries hereunder (including, without limitation, any Exercise Notice) shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective on the earliest of (i) the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via confirmed e-mail at the e-mail address specified below prior to 4:00 P.M., New York City time, on a Trading Day, (ii) the next Trading Day after the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via confirmed e-mail at the e-mail address specified below on a day that is not a Trading Day or later than 4:00 P.M., New York City time, on any Trading Day, (iii) the second Trading Day following the date of mailing, if sent by nationally recognized overnight courier service specifying next business day delivery, or (iv) upon actual receipt by the Person to whom such notice is required to be given, if by hand delivery. The e-mail address for purposes of providing notice hereunder is:ali.kiboro@quotientbd.com.

14. WARRANT AGENT. The Company shall initially serve as warrant agent under this Warrant. Upon ten (10) days’ notice to the Holder, the Company may appoint a new warrant agent. Any corporation into which the Company or any new warrant agent may be merged or any corporation resulting from any consolidation to which the Company or any new warrant agent shall be a party or any corporation to which the Company or any new warrant agent transfers substantially all of its corporate trust or shareholders services business shall be a successor warrant agent under this Warrant without any further act. Any such successor warrant agent shall promptly cause notice of its succession as warrant agent to be mailed (by first class mail, postage prepaid) to the Holder at the Holder’s last address as shown on the Warrant Register.

- 10 -

15. MISCELLANEOUS. (a) No Rights as an Ordinary Shareholder. Except as expressly set forth in Section 9, the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as a holder of this Warrant, shall not be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of share capital of the Company for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Warrant be construed to confer upon the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as the Holder of this Warrant, any of the rights of an ordinary shareholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue of shares, reclassification of shares, consolidation, merger, amalgamation, conveyance or otherwise), receive notice of meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise, prior to the issuance to the Holder of the Warrant Shares which such Person is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Warrant. In addition, nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing any liabilities on the Holder to purchase any securities (upon exercise of this Warrant or otherwise) or as an ordinary shareholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.
