Quantum (QMCO) 8-KEntry into a Material Definitive Agreement

EXERCISE OF WARRANT.

Mechanics of Exercise. Holder may exercise this Warrant in whole or in part and from time to time prior to the Expiration Time by delivering a duly completed and executed Notice of Exercise in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (each, a “Notice of Exercise”) to the principal office of the Company. Unless the Holder is exercising the Cashless Exercise right set forth in Section 1.1(c), the Holder shall also deliver to the Company a check, wire transfer (to an account designated in writing by the Company), or other form of payment acceptable to the Company for the aggregate Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares being purchased.

Exercise Price. For purposes of this Warrant, “Exercise Price” means $0.41, subject to adjustment as provided herein.

Cashless Exercise Right. In lieu of exercising this Warrant as specified in Section 1.1(a), the Holder may from time to time, in its sole discretion, exercise this Warrant in whole or in part as to the portion of the Warrant that is exercisable and, in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company upon such exercise for the aggregate Exercise Price pursuant to Section 1.1(a), elect instead to receive upon such exercise the “net number” of Warrant Shares determined according to the following formula (a “Cashless Exercise”):

Calculation of FMV. For purposes of the calculation above, the fair market value of one share of Common Stock shall be the average of the daily volume weighted average for the five Trading Days immediately prior to the date of determination thereof or, in the case no such sale takes place on any such Trading Day, the average of the reported closing bid and asked prices regular way of the shares of Common Stock on such Trading Day, in each case as quoted on the Principal Market, as reported by Bloomberg, or such other principal securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system, in each case, on which the shares of Common Stock are then traded. In the event the Common Stock is not quoted on the Principal Market or reported on any other national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system, the fair market value of one share of Common Stock shall be the last trade price of the Common Stock in the over-the-counter market on the electronic bulletin board for such security as reported by Bloomberg, or, if no last trade price is reported for the Common Stock by Bloomberg, the average of the ask prices of any market makers for the Common Stock as reported in the “pink sheets” by OTC Markets Group Inc. If the fair market value of one share of Common Stock cannot be calculated on a particular date on any of the foregoing bases, the fair market value of one share of Common Stock on such date shall be mutually determined by the Company and the Holder; provided, that if the Company and the Holder are unable to agree upon the fair market value of such security, then such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures in Section 1(e).

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 13.

Required Reserve Amount. So long as this Warrant remains outstanding, the Company shall at all times reserve and keep available for issuance under this Warrant, out of its authorized but unissued Common Stock, such number of shares of Common Stock at least equal to 100% of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock as shall be necessary to satisfy the Company’s obligation to issue Warrant Shares under this Warrant (without regard to the 4.9% Cap or any other restriction or limitation on exercise) (the “Required Reserve Amount”); provided that at no time shall the number of shares of Common Stock reserved pursuant to this Section 1(f) be reduced other than in connection with any exercise of this Warrant.

Insufficient Authorized Shares. If at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to satisfy its obligation to reserve for issuance the Required Reserve Amount (an “Authorized Share Failure”), then the Company shall immediately take all action necessary to increase the Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock to an amount sufficient to allow the Company to reserve and keep available the Required Reserve Amount for this Warrant. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, as soon as practicable after the date of the occurrence of an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later than seventy-five (75) days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall hold a meeting of its shareholders for the approval of an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. In connection with such meeting, the Company shall provide each shareholder of the Company with a proxy statement and shall use its best efforts to solicit its shareholders’ approval of such increase in authorized shares of Common Stock and the Board shall recommend to the shareholders that they approve such proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such time of an Authorized Share Failure, the Company is able to obtain the written consent of a majority of the shares of its issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock to approve the increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock, the Company may satisfy this obligation by obtaining such written consent and submitting for filing with the SEC an Information Statement on Schedule 14C.

Exercise Restriction.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not issue to Holder, and Holder may not acquire, a number of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant to the extent that, upon such exercise, the number of shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by Holder and its Affiliates and any other persons or entities whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of Exchange Act (including shares held by any Group of which Holder is a member, but excluding shares beneficially owned by virtue of the ownership of securities or rights to acquire securities that have limitations on the right to convert, exercise or purchase similar to the limitation set forth herein) would exceed 4.9% of the total number of shares of Common Stock then issued and outstanding (the “4.9% Cap”); provided, however, that the 4.9% Cap shall only apply to the extent that the Common Stock is deemed to constitute an “equity security” pursuant to Rule 13d-1(i) promulgated under the Exchange Act; and provided, further, that no changes shall be made to the 4.9% Cap without the prior written consent of the Company. For purposes hereof, the percentage beneficially owned by Holder shall be determined in a manner consistent with the provisions of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. Upon the written request of Holder, the Company shall, within two (2) Business Days, confirm orally and in writing to Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not effect the exercise of any portion of this Warrant, and the Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, and any such exercise shall be null and void ab initio and treated as if never made, to the extent that (1) after giving effect to such exercise, the number of Warrant Shares then beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and any other Persons or entities whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (including any shares held by any “group” of which the Holder is a member, but excluding shares beneficially owned by virtue of the ownership of securities or rights to acquire securities that have limitations on the right to exchange, convert, exercise or purchase similar to the limitation set forth herein) would exceed 19.99% of the total number of Common Stock issued and outstanding or (2) such issuance, when aggregated with any other Common Stock theretofore or simultaneously therewith issued to or otherwise beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and any other Persons or entities whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (including any shares of Common Stock held by any “group” of which the Holder is a member, but excluding shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by virtue of the ownership of securities or rights to acquire securities that have limitations on the right to exchange, convert, exercise or purchase similar to the limitation set forth herein) would otherwise result in a “change of control” of the Company within the meaning of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(b); except that such limitation shall not apply in the event that the Company

Automatic Exercise. To the extent that there has not been an exercise of this Warrant pursuant to this Section 1, any portion of the Warrant that remains unexercised shall be exercised automatically, with no further action required on the part of the Holder, in whole (not in part), immediately prior to the Expiration Time through a Cashless Exercise in the manner set forth in Section 1(c).

ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES. The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares shall be adjusted from time to time as follows:

Adjustment upon Issuance of Shares of Common Stock, Options and Convertible Securities. If on or after the Issuance Date, the Company issues or sells any shares of Common Stock, Common Stock Equivalents, Options or Convertible Securities (including, in each case, the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock owned or held by or for the account of the Company, but excluding shares of Common Stock issued by the Company in connection with any Excluded Securities) for a consideration per share (including upon exercise, exchange or conversion) of less than the Exercise Price as of the date hereof (the “Applicable Price”, and any such issuance a “Dilutive Issuance”), then, immediately after such Dilutive Issuance, the Exercise Price immediately after such Dilutive Issuance shall be equal to the quotient of (A) the sum of (x) the product of (I) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such Dilutive Issuance, multiplied by (II) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such Dilutive Issuance, calculated on a Fully-Diluted Basis, plus (y) the consideration, if any, received by the Company upon such issuance or sale (or, with respect to any Convertible Securities, Common Stock Equivalents, Options, the exercise price or conversion price, as applicable, of such securities as of the date of such issuance or sale), divided by (B) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such Dilutive Issuance, calculated on a Fully-Diluted Basis. Upon each such adjustment of the Exercise Price hereunder, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be equal to the quotient of (A) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such Dilutive Issuance multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock that the Holder would have been entitled to purchase upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any restriction or limitation on exercise) immediately prior to such adjustment, divided by (B) the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment (such additional number of shares of Common Stock in excess of the Warrant Shares after giving effect to this sentence, the “Additional Warrant Shares”). The Company will not take any action that would result in an adjustment under this Section 2 and would

Change in Option Price or Rate of Conversion. On or after the Issuance Date, if the purchase price provided for in any Options, the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issue, conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities or Common Stock Equivalents, or the rate at which any Convertible Securities or Common Stock Equivalents are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock increases or decreases at any time (collectively, a “Consideration Adjustment”), then the Exercise Price in effect at the time of such increase or decrease shall be adjusted to the Exercise Price which would have been in effect at such time had such Options, Common Stock Equivalents or Convertible Securities provided for such increased or decreased purchase price, additional consideration or increased or decreased conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold; provided that for the avoidance of doubt, no Additional Warrant Shares will be issued in connection with

Record Date. If the Company takes a record of the holders of shares of Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (i) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in shares of Common Stock, Common Stock Equivalents, Options or in Convertible Securities or (ii) to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock, Common Stock Equivalents, Options or Convertible Securities, then such record date will be deemed to be the date of the issue or sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may be.

Voluntary Adjustment By Company. Subject to the prior consent of the Principal Market, the Company may at any time during the term of this Warrant reduce the then current Exercise Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board.

Adjustment Upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company at any time on or after the Issuance Date subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Shares and Additional Warrant Shares will be proportionately increased. If the Company at any time on or after the Issuance Date combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Shares and Additional Warrant Shares will be proportionately decreased. Any adjustment under this Section 2(e) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

Adjustment Upon Reclassification. If the securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are changed into the same or a different number of securities of any other class or classes by reclassification, capital reorganization or otherwise (other than as otherwise provided for herein) (a “Reclassification”), then, in any such event, in lieu of the number of Warrant Shares and Additional Warrant Shares which the

Other Events. If, on or after the Issuance Date, any event occurs of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section 2 but not expressly provided for by such provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features), then the Board will, in good faith, make an appropriate adjustment in the Exercise Price, and the number of Warrant Shares or Additional Warrant Shares, as applicable, as mutually determined by the Board and the Holders, each acting in good faith, so as to protect the rights of the Holders; provided that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 2(g) will increase the Exercise Price, or decrease the number of Warrant Shares or Additional Warrant Shares, as applicable, as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 2.

RIGHTS UPON DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 2 above, if, on or after the Issuance Date and on or prior to the Expiration Date, 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, options, evidence of indebtedness or any other assets by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), 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 the 4.9% Cap or any other restriction or limitation on exercise) 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 their 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 and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the 4.9% Cap, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (and shall not be entitled to beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Distribution (and beneficial ownership) to such extent) and the portion of such Distribution shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time or times as its right thereto would not result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the 4.9% Cap, at which time or times the Holder shall be granted such Distribution (and any Distributions declared or made on such initial Distribution or on any subsequent Distribution held similarly in abeyance) to the same extent as if there had been no such limitation).

PURCHASE RIGHTS; FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTION.

Purchase Rights. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 2, if at any time on or after the Issuance Date and on or prior to the Expiration Date the Company (i) grants, issues or sells any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class 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 the 4.9% Cap or any other restriction or limitation on exercise) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance 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 and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the 4.9% Cap, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (and shall not be entitled to beneficial ownership of such Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right (and beneficial ownership) to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time or times as its right thereto would not result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the 4.9% Cap, at which time or times the Holder shall be granted such right (and any Purchase Right granted, issued or sold on such initial Purchase Right or on any subsequent Purchase Right to be held similarly in abeyance) to the same extent as if there had been no such limitation) or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or (ii) conducts any Pro Rata Repurchase Offer, the Holder shall be permitted to (but shall not be obligated to) participate, in whole or in part, on an as-converted basis in such Pro Rata Repurchase Offer, provided that, notwithstanding any other provision hereof, such participation may at the election of the Holder be conditioned upon the consummation of such transaction, in which case such participation shall not be deemed to be effective until immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction.

Fundamental Transactions. The Company shall not enter into or be party to a Fundamental Transaction unless the Successor Entity assumes in writing, pursuant to written agreements in form and substance satisfactory to the Holder, all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and all other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4(b), including agreements to 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, but which is exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock equivalent to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to the 4.9% Cap or any other restriction or limitation on exercise) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an exercise price which applies the exercise price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (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

Cash Takeout Transactions. In the event of a Takeout Major Transaction in which the consideration payable to the each holder of Common Stock of the Company consists of more than 50% cash (a “Cash Takeout Transaction”), the Company may, at its option, and within at least thirty (30) days prior to the consummation of the Cash Takeout Transaction, provide the Holder with written notice that it elects to terminate this Warrant upon the consummation of the Cash Takeout Transaction in exchange for payment to the Holder of the Successor Major Transaction Consideration (the “Company Termination Notice”), subject in each case to the Holder’s right to exercise this Warrant prior to such termination. The Company shall not effect a Cash Takeout Transaction with respect to which the Company has delivered a Company Termination Notice unless it shall first obtain the written agreement of the Successor Entity, naming the Holder as an express third party beneficiary, that payment of the Successor Major Transaction Consideration concurrently with the consummation of such Cash Takeout Transaction shall be a condition precedent to such Cash Takeout Transaction.

NONCIRCUMVENTION. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its certificate of incorporation or bylaws, or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issuance or sale of securities, or any other action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, and will at all times in good faith carry out all of the provisions of this Warrant and take all action as may be required to protect the rights of the Holder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (a) shall not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, (b) shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (c) shall, so long as this Warrant is outstanding, take all action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the exercise of this Warrant, the number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the exercise of this Warrant (without regard to the 4.9% Cap or any other restriction or limitation on exercise).

WARRANT HOLDER NOT DEEMED A SHAREHOLDER. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, including pursuant to Section 3 and Section 4, the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as a holder of this Warrant, shall not be entitled to vote or be deemed the holder of capital stock 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 a shareholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue of stock, reclassification of stock, consolidation, merger, 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 a shareholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company. Notwithstanding this Section 6, the Company shall provide the Holder with copies of the same notices and other information given to the shareholders of the Company generally, contemporaneously with the giving thereof to the shareholders.

BOARD OBSERVER RIGHTS. At any time following the date that there are no longer any amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement (and therefore no board observation rights thereunder), prior to the exercise of the Warrant and at all times thereafter for so long as the Holders continue to own any Warrant Shares or Additional Warrant Shares, the Company shall permit one authorized representative of the Holders (which for purposes of this Section 8 shall be designated by Blue Torch Credit Opportunities Fund II LP, Blue Torch Offshore Credit Opportunities Master Fund II LP, Blue Torch Credit Opportunities KRS Fund LP, Blue Torch Credit Opportunities SBAF Fund LP and BTC Holdings SC Fund LLC) and its permitted affiliated assigns in respect of the Warrant issued to it on the date hereof as long as such parties hold any Warrants, Warrant Shares or Additional

REISSUANCE OF WARRANT.

If this Warrant is to be transferred, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company, whereupon the Company will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the Holder a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 8(d)), registered as the Holder may request, representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares being transferred by the Holder and, if less than the total number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant is being transferred, a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 8(d)) to the Holder representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares not being transferred.

Lost, Stolen or Mutilated Warrant. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of any indemnification undertaking by the Holder to the Company in customary form (but without the obligation to post a bond) and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Holder a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 8(d)) representing the right to purchase the Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant.

Exchangeable for Multiple Warrants. This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder at the principal office of the Company, for a new Warrant or Warrants (in accordance with Section 8(d)) representing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant, and each such new Warrant will represent the right to purchase such portion of such Warrant Shares as is designated by the Holder at the time of such surrender.

Issuance of New Warrants. Whenever the Company is required to issue a new Warrant pursuant to the terms of this Warrant, such new Warrant (i) shall be of like tenor with this Warrant, (ii) shall represent, as indicated on the face of such new Warrant, the right to purchase the Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant (or in the case of a new Warrant being issued pursuant to Section 8(a) or Section 8(c), the Warrant Shares designated by the Holder which, when added to the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the other new Warrants issued in connection with such issuance, does not exceed the number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant), (iii) shall have an issuance date, as indicated on the face of such new Warrant which is the same as the Issuance Date, and (iv) shall have the same rights and conditions as this Warrant.

Holder is an “accredited investor” (as defined in the Act).

Holder understands that this Warrant and the Warrant Shares and any Additional Warrant Shares are “restricted securities” under the federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such federal securities laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold without registration under the Act only in certain limited circumstances.

This Warrant shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with, and all questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and performance of this Warrant 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. The Company 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. The Company 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 the Company at the address set forth in Section 10(i) or such other address as the Company subsequently delivers to the Holder and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof.

SEVERABILITY; CONSTRUCTION; HEADINGS. If any provision of this Warrant is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Warrant so long as this Warrant as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties hereto or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties hereto. The parties hereto will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s).
