Explanatory Note

On June 22, 2026, FuelCell Energy, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Capital Equipment Purchase Agreement (the “CEPA”) with Fit Energy USA LP (“Fit”), by its general partner, Fit US Inc.  Pursuant to the CEPA, the Company agreed to manufacture, sell, and deliver to Fit carbonate fuel cell block systems (each, a “Block”), with each Block having a nameplate generating capacity of 2.5 megawatts (“MW”), for a total aggregate generating capacity of up to 380 MW across four phases.  The fuel cell systems are intended to supply baseload electricity for data center applications.  Upon execution of the CEPA, the payment obligations with respect to the initial phase, representing a generating capacity of 30 MW in phase 0, will be effective. Thereafter, Fit will have the ability to elect, at its sole option, to proceed with the remaining phases for generating capacity of 100 MW in phase 1, generating capacity of 125 MW in phase 2 and generating capacity of an additional 125 MW in phase 3, in each case, with a milestone based payment obligation with an initial deposit due at election of each phase, upon delivery by Fit of timely election notices.

As Fit identifies project sites for the deployment of the Blocks within the United States, the parties are required to enter into a project-specific system commissioning agreement and a long-term services agreement (“LTSA”), each in prescribed forms attached to the CEPA.  These LTSAs are expected to have terms of 15 to 20 years.

Either party may terminate the CEPA upon the other party’s material breach, subject to customary notice and cure periods.  

Item 1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Warrant Agreement

On June 22, 2026, in connection with the CEPA, the Company entered into a warrant agreement (the “Warrant Agreement”) with Fit, pursuant to which the Company issued to Fit three tranches of warrants representing Fit’s right to purchase up to an aggregate of 12,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) at an exercise price of $26.44 per share (the “Strike Price”). The warrants are divided into three equal tranches of 4,000,000 shares each (the “First Tranche Warrant,” the “Second Tranche Warrant” and the “Third Tranche Warrant,” and collectively, the “Warrants”).

The Warrants are subject to performance-based vesting tied to Fit’s deposits under the CEPA before they can be exercised. The First Tranche Warrant vests upon the Company’s receipt of a non-refundable deposit equal to 16% of the order value for 100 MW of power generation platforms in connection with phase 1 The Second Tranche Warrant vests upon the Company’s receipt of a non-refundable deposit for 125 MW of power generation platforms in connection with phase 2. The Third Tranche Warrant vests upon the Company’s receipt of a non-refundable deposit for the third tranche of 125 MW of power generation platforms in connection with phase 3. Any Warrant that has not vested as of the date that is 24 months following the date of issuance will automatically terminate and be cancelled.

Each tranche of Warrants, once vested, is exercisable by Fit, in whole or in part, at any time, or from time to time, during the applicable exercise period for such Warrants, by tendering to the Company a notice of exercise and payment of the Strike Price in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds. Each tranche of Warrants will expire 24 months following the applicable vesting date for such tranche. The Company will not issue fractional shares upon exercise of any Warrant; in lieu thereof, the Company will pay cash based on the closing sale price of the Common Stock on the applicable exercise date.

The Warrant Agreement provides the Company with a mandatory exercise right (the “Mandatory Exercise Right”), exercisable at the Company’s election, to cause all outstanding vested Warrants to be exercised if the volume-weighted average price per share of Common Stock exceeds 150% of the Strike Price on each of at least 30 consecutive trading days. Upon exercise of the Mandatory Exercise Right, the Company must provide at least 15 days’ prior written notice to Fit. No shares of Common Stock will be issued upon exercise of any Warrant to the extent such issuance would result in Fit beneficially owning in excess of 19.99% of the then-outstanding shares of Common Stock.

The Warrants are subject to adjustment from time to time in accordance with the provisions of the Warrant Agreement. The Warrants may not be transferred or assigned without the prior written consent of the Company, except to Affiliates (as defined in the Warrant Agreement).

The foregoing description of the Warrant Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Warrant Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 4.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

Registration Rights Agreement

On June 22, 2026, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement with Fit (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) providing for certain resale shelf registration rights with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants held by Fit from time to time.

The Registration Rights Agreement requires the Company to file a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), providing for the resale of all or part of the registrable securities held by the parties thereto as promptly as practicable, and in any event within 30 calendar days following the closing of the transactions contemplated by the CEPA, and to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective within the timelines specified therein, and thereafter to keep such registration statement effective for the periods specified therein. The Registration Rights Agreement also contains customary indemnity, exculpation and contribution obligations by the Company and the other parties to the Registration Rights Agreement.

The foregoing description of the Registration Rights Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Registration Rights Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

On June 22, 2026, the Company entered into the Warrant Agreement, pursuant to which it issued Warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock in a private placement in reliance on the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. The information contained in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.

Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These statements are based on management’s current opinions, expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions or projections regarding future events or future results. Forward-looking statements include statements regarding the timing and amount of any funding, issuance of Warrants and the transactions contemplated by the CEPA. These forward-looking statements are only predictions, not historical fact, and involve certain risks and uncertainties, as well as assumptions. Actual results, levels of activity, performance, achievements and events could differ materially from those stated, anticipated or implied by such forward-looking statements. While the Company believes that its assumptions are reasonable, it is very difficult to predict the impact of known factors, and, of course, it is impossible to anticipate all factors that could affect actual results. There are many risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from forward-looking statements made or implied herein including the risks discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2025 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on December 18, 2025, as well as other factors described from time to time in the Company’s filings with the SEC. Such forward-looking statements are made only as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement because of new information, future events or otherwise, except as otherwise required by law. If it does update one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should be made that the Company will make additional updates with respect to those or other forward-looking statements.

(d)Third Tranche Vesting. The Third Tranche Warrant shall vest and become Exercisable upon the Company’s receipt of the Third Tranche Deposit. The Company shall notify the Holder in writing within five (5) Business Days following the Third Tranche Vesting Date, specifying the Third Tranche Vesting Date and confirming that the Third Tranche Warrant has become Vested.
(e)Unvested Warrants. Any Warrant that has not Vested as of the date that is twenty four (24) months following the Initial Issue Date shall automatically terminate and be cancelled without any action required by any party, and shall thereafter not be Exercisable.
5.  Exercise of Warrants.
(a)Exercise at the Option of the Holders.
(i) Exercise Right; When Warrants May Be Submitted for Optional Exercise. Subject to Section 4, each Holder of any Vested Warrants will have the right to submit all, or any Authorized Denomination, of such Warrants for Optional Exercise at any time during the applicable Exercise Period for such Warrants; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Warrant Agreement, Warrants that are subject to Mandatory Exercise may not be submitted for Optional Exercise after the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately before the related Mandatory Exercise Date.
(ii) Surrender and Payment.  The purchase rights represented by a Vested Warrant are exercisable by the Holder in whole or in part, at any time, or from time to time, during the applicable Exercise Period, by the surrender of such Warrant (or portion thereof in an Authorized Denomination) and delivery of a Notice of Exercise annexed hereto as Exhibit B duly completed and executed on behalf of the Holder, at the office of the Company (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the Holder at the address of the Holder appearing on the Register), upon payment of the Strike Price in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds. Such payment will be deemed to have been made on the date such Aggregate Strike Price is actually received by the Company.
(iii) Exercises of Warrants Not In Authorized Denominations Prohibited. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Warrant Agreement, in no event will any Holder be entitled to Exercise any Warrant other than in an Authorized Denomination thereof.
(b)Effectiveness of Exercise. A Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately prior to the Close of Business on the Exercise Date, and the person entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise shall be treated for all purposes as the holder of record of such shares as of the Close of Business on such Exercise Date. As promptly as practicable on or after such date and in any event within five (5) Business Days thereafter, the Company, at its expense, shall issue and deliver to the person or persons entitled to receive the same the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise by registering such shares in book-entry form in the name of such person or persons. In the event that a Warrant is exercised in part, the Company at its expense will execute and deliver a new Certificate of like tenor representing a Warrant exercisable for the number of shares for which such Warrant may then be exercised.

8

‌ ​


(c)  Expiration of Exercise Period. Subject to Section 6, if any Warrant is outstanding and not Exercised as of immediately before the Close of Business on the applicable Exercise Period Expiration Date for such Warrant, such Warrant shall automatically expire and cease to be outstanding and Exercisable as of immediately after the Close of Business on such Exercise Period Expiration Date without any action on the part of any party.
6. Mandatory Exercise at the Company’s Election.
(a)Mandatory Exercise Right. Subject to the provisions of this Section 6, the Company will have the right (the “Mandatory Exercise Right”), exercisable at its election, to designate a Business Day as an Exercise Date for the exercise (such an exercise, a “Mandatory Exercise”) of all, outstanding Vested Warrants, but only if the following condition is satisfied (the “Mandatory Exercise Condition”): the VWAP per share of Common Stock exceeds one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Strike Price then in effect on each of at least thirty (30) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately before the Mandatory Exercise Notice Date for such Mandatory Exercise. Upon the Company’s exercise of the Mandatory Exercise Right, all outstanding Vested Warrants shall be subject to and must be exercised pursuant to such Mandatory Exercise. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company may not exercise the Mandatory Exercise Right with respect to fewer than all outstanding Vested Warrants.
(b) Mandatory Exercise Notice. To exercise its Mandatory Exercise Right with respect to any Warrants, the Company must send to each Holder of such Warrants a written notice of such exercise (a “Mandatory Exercise Notice”). Such Mandatory Exercise Notice must state:
(i) that the Company has exercised its Mandatory Exercise Right to cause the Mandatory Exercise of the Warrants, including reasonable support for the Company’s determination that the Mandatory Exercise Right has become exercisable pursuant to the terms of this Warrant;
(ii) the Mandatory Exercise Date for such Mandatory Exercise, which date shall be the date that is fifteen (15) Business Days after the Mandatory Exercise Notice Date, and the date scheduled for the settlement of such Mandatory Exercise;
(iii) that Warrants subject to Mandatory Exercise may be Exercised earlier at the option of the Holders thereof pursuant to an Optional Exercise at any time before the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately before the Mandatory Exercise Date; and
(iv) the Strike Price in effect on the Mandatory Exercise Notice Date for such Mandatory Exercise.
(c)Mandatory Exercise Procedures. If the Company duly exercises its Mandatory Exercise Right in accordance with this Section 6 with respect to any Warrant, then (i) the Mandatory Exercise of such Warrant will occur automatically and without the need for any action on the part of the Holder(s) thereof; and (ii) the Holder shall pay to the Company the Aggregate Strike Price for the Underlying Shares being Exercised in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds on or before the Mandatory Exercise Date, and the shares of Common Stock due upon such Mandatory

9

‌ ​


Exercise will be registered in the name of, and delivered to, the Holder(s) of such Warrant as of the Close of Business on the related Mandatory Exercise Date.
7. Limitation on Exercise Right.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Warrant Agreement, no shares of Common Stock will be issued or delivered upon Exercise of any Warrant of any Holder, and no Warrant of any Holder will be Exercisable, in each case to the extent, and only to the extent, that such issuance, delivery, Exercise or exercisability would result in such Holder, or a “person” or “group” (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) that includes such Holder, beneficially owning, after giving effect to the issuance of the shares of Common Stock to be issued upon such Exercise, in excess of nineteen and ninety-nine hundredths percent (19.99%) of the then-outstanding shares of Common Stock as so increased.

8. No Fractional Shares.
(a)No Fractional Shares Issued. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of any Warrant. In lieu of any fractional share to which the Holder would otherwise be entitled, the Company shall pay cash based on the Valuation Price.
(b)Method of Payment. The Company will pay all cash amounts, if any, due on any Warrant of any Holder by check mailed to the address of such Holder set forth in the Register; provided, however, that the Company will instead pay such cash amounts by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Holder within the United States specified in a written request of such Holder delivered to the Company no later than the Close of Business on the date that is ten (10) Business Days immediately before the date such payment is due.
9. Rights of Stockholders. 

Subject to the first sentence of Section 5(b), the Holder shall not be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of Common Stock or any other securities of the Company that may at any time be issuable on the exercise of any Warrant for any purpose, nor shall anything contained herein be construed to confer upon the Holder, as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether upon any recapitalization, issuance of stock, reclassification of stock, change of par value, or change of stock to no par value, consolidation, merger, conveyance, or otherwise) or to receive notice of meetings, or to receive dividends or subscription rights or otherwise until such Warrant shall have been exercised as provided herein.

10.  Transfer of Warrant.
(a)Limitations on Transfer.  This Warrant may not be transferred or assigned without the prior written consent of the Company, provided that the Holder may assign this Warrant without consent to any Permitted Transferee.  In no event may this Warrant be transferred or assigned without compliance with the Securities Act and state securities laws by the transferor and the transferee (including the delivery of investment representation letters and legal opinions reasonably satisfactory to the Company, if such are requested by the Company). Subject to the foregoing provisions, this Warrant may be transferred by the Holder executing an assignment in the form annexed hereto and delivery in the same manner as a negotiable instrument transferable by endorsement and delivery.
(b)Exchange of Warrant Upon a Transfer.  If this Warrant is held as a Physical Certificate, upon such deemed surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute

10

‌ ​


and deliver a new Physical or Electronic Certificate of Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable, and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and, if a Physical Certificate, shall issue to the assignor a new Physical Certificate evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and the existing Physical Certificate shall be deemed cancelled. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to surrender this Warrant to the Company unless the Holder has assigned this Warrant in full, in which case, the Holder shall be deemed to surrender this Warrant to the Company at the time the Holder delivers an assignment form to the Company assigning this Warrant in full. The Warrant, if properly assigned in accordance herewith, may be exercised by a new holder for Underlying Shares without having a new Warrant issued. This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the office of the Company, together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section 10(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a Certificate representing the new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance with such notice. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the Initial Issue Date of this Warrant and shall be identical with this Warrant except as to the number of Underlying Shares issuable pursuant thereto. Upon satisfaction of the requirements of this Warrant Agreement to effect a transfer or exchange of any Warrant, the Company will cause such transfer or exchange to be effected as soon as reasonably practicable but in no event later than the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date of such satisfaction.
11. Reservation of Stock. 

The Company covenants that during the period any Warrant is outstanding and Exercisable, the Company will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the Vesting and exercise of all Warrants then outstanding. The Company further covenants that all shares that may be issued upon the exercise of rights represented by any Warrant, all as set forth herein, will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and shall be free from all preemptive rights, taxes, liens and charges in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously or otherwise specified herein). The Company agrees that its issuance of any Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates or registering book-entry shares to execute and issue the necessary certificates or register the necessary book-entry shares for shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of any Warrant.

12.  Notices.
(a)Corporate Events. In case:
(i) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock (or other stock or securities at the time receivable upon the exercise of any Warrant) for the purpose of entitling them to receive any dividend or other distribution, or any right to subscribe for or purchase any shares of stock of any class or any other securities, or to receive any other right, or
(ii) of any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation, or any conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to another corporation, or

11

‌ ​


(iii) of any voluntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company,

then, and in each such case, the Company will promptly send notice to the Holder(s) specifying, as the case may be, (A) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, and stating the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right, or (B) the date on which such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, conveyance, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is to take place, and the time, if any is to be fixed, as of which the holders of record of Common Stock (or such stock or securities at the time receivable upon the exercise of any Warrant) shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock (or such other stock or securities) for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, conveyance, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up. Such notice shall be mailed at least fifteen (15) days prior to the date therein specified.

(b)Form of Notices. All notices or communications required to be made to a Holder pursuant to this Warrant Agreement must be made in writing and will be deemed to be duly sent or given in writing if (1) mailed by first class mail, certified or registered, return receipt requested, or by overnight air courier guaranteeing next day delivery, to its address shown on the Register; or (2) transmitted by electronic transmission or other similar means of unsecured electronic communication to the electronic address of such Holder shown on the Register, provided receipt of such electronic transmission or communication is acknowledged. The failure to send a notice or communication to a Holder, or any defect in such notice or communication, will not affect its sufficiency with respect to any other Holder.
(c)Notice Effectiveness. If a notice or communication is mailed or sent in the manner provided in Section 12(b) within the time prescribed, it will be deemed to have been duly given, whether or not the addressee receives it (except to the extent, but only to the extent, acknowledgement of receipt is expressly required by Section 12(b)).
13. Adjustments. 

The Strike Price and the number of shares purchasable hereunder are subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:

(a) Merger, Sale of Assets, etc. If at any time while this Warrant, or any portion hereof, is outstanding and unexpired there shall be (i) a reorganization (other than a combination, reclassification, exchange or subdivision of shares otherwise provided for herein), (ii) a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation in which the Company is not the surviving entity, or a reverse triangular merger in which the Company is the surviving entity but the shares of the Company’s capital stock outstanding immediately prior to the merger are converted by virtue of the merger into other property, whether in the form of securities, cash, or otherwise, or (iii) a sale or transfer of the Company’s properties and assets as, or substantially as, an entirety to any other person (any such event in (i), (ii) and (iii) whereby any Person or “group” acquires more than 50% of the voting power of the capital stock of the Company or the Company effects any sale to another Person of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions (except, in each case, for any such transaction in which the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such transaction maintain, in substantially the same proportions, the voting power of such Person immediately after the transaction), a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, (A) if such transaction does not constitute a Fundamental Transaction and the Company’s Common Stock is converted into, or is exchanged for, or represents solely the right to receive, other securities, cash or other property, or any combination of the foregoing, the consideration due upon Exercise of any Warrant will be determined in the same manner as if each reference to any number of shares of Common Stock in this Warrant Agreement were instead a reference to the same amount of securities, cash or other property, (B) if such transaction constitutes a Fundamental Transaction, the Holder’s Vested Warrants shall be deemed to be automatically exercised immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and the Holder shall have the right to receive, upon the closing of the Fundamental Transaction, 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 assuming it were the holder of the number of Underlying Shares then issuable upon exercise in full of this Warrant immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (and after giving effect to the deemed payment of the Aggregate Strike Price), without regard to any limitations on exercise contained herein (the “Alternate Consideration”). If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon the deemed exercise of this Warrant in connection with such Fundamental Transaction. Any Warrants that are not Vested at the time of the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction will be automatically cancelled in connection with the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, will cease to be outstanding thereafter and will not receive any consideration in connection therewith.

12

‌ ​


(b)Reclassification, etc.  If the Company, at any time while any Warrant, or any portion hereof, remains outstanding and unexpired, by reclassification of securities or otherwise, shall change any of the securities as to which purchase rights under such Warrant exist into the same or a different number of securities of any other class or classes, such Warrant shall thereafter represent the right to acquire such number and kind of securities as would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the securities that were subject to the purchase rights under such Warrant immediately prior to such reclassification or other change and the Strike Price therefor shall be appropriately adjusted, all subject to further adjustment as provided in this Section 13.
(c)Split, Subdivision or Combination of Shares.  If the Company, at any time while any Warrant, or any portion hereof, remains outstanding and unexpired, shall split, subdivide or combine the securities as to which purchase rights under such Warrant exist, into a different number of securities of the same class, the Strike Price for such securities shall be proportionately decreased in the case of a split or subdivision or proportionately increased in the case of a combination, with a corresponding adjustment to the number of Underlying Shares of each Warrant.
(d)Adjustments for Dividends in Stock or Other Securities or Property.  If while any Warrant, or any portion hereof, remains outstanding and unexpired, the holders of the securities as to which purchase rights under such Warrant exist at the time shall have received, or, on or after the record date fixed for the determination of eligible stockholders, shall have become entitled to receive, without payment therefor, other or additional stock or other securities or property (other than cash) of the Company by way of dividend, then and in each case, such Warrant shall represent the right to acquire, in addition to the number of shares of the security receivable upon exercise of such Warrant, and without payment of any additional consideration therefor, the amount of such other or additional stock or other securities or property (other than cash) of the Company that such holder would hold on the date of such exercise had it been the holder of record of the security receivable upon exercise of such Warrant on the date hereof and had thereafter, during the period from the date hereof to and including the date of such exercise, retained such shares and/or all other additional stock available by it as aforesaid during such period, giving effect to all adjustments called for during such period by the provisions of this Section 13.

13

‌ ​


(e)Certificate as to Adjustments.  Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment pursuant to this Section 13, the Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to each Holder of any Warrant, upon written request, 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, upon the written request, at any time, of any such Holder, furnish or cause to be furnished to such Holder a like certificate setting forth: (i) such adjustments and readjustments; (ii) the Strike Price at the time in effect; and (iii) the number of Underlying Shares and the amount, if any, of other property that at the time would be received upon the exercise of such Warrant.
(f)No Impairment.  The Company will not, by any 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 Section 13 and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder of any Warrant against impairment.
14.        Registration Rights.

The Underlying Shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall benefit from certain resale shelf registration rights as set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement.

15. Governing Law. 

This Warrant shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware.

(b)The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep any Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective under the 1933 Act (including, if necessary, by renewing or refiling a Shelf Registration Statement prior to expiration of the existing Shelf Registration Statement or by filing with the Commission a post-effective amendment or a supplement to the Shelf Registration Statement or any document incorporated therein by reference or by filing any other required document or otherwise supplementing or amending the Shelf Registration Statement, if required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by the Company for such Shelf Registration Statement or by the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, any state securities or blue sky laws, or any rules and regulations thereunder) in order to permit the prospectus forming a part thereof to be usable by Holders, as to such Registrable Securities, until the date as of which such securities cease to be Registrable Securities.

(c)In the event that Form S-3 is not available for the registration of the resale of Registrable Securities hereunder, the Company shall (i) register the resale of the Registrable Securities on a continuous basis on another appropriate form reasonably acceptable to the Holders, including a Form S-1, and (ii) undertake to register the Registrable Securities on Form S-3 promptly after such form is available provided, that the Company shall maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement then in effect until such time as a Registration Statement on Form S-3 covering the Registrable Securities has been declared effective by the Commission.
(d)Notwithstanding anything contained herein, in the event that the Commission requires the Company to reduce the number of Registrable Securities to be included in a Shelf Registration Statement in order to allow the Company to rely on Rule 415 with respect to such Shelf Registration Statement, then the Company shall reduce the number of Registrable Securities to be included in such Shelf Registration Statement to the maximum number of securities as is permitted to be registered by the Commission. In the event of any reduction in Registrable Securities pursuant to this paragraph, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to file one or more additional Shelf Registration Statements so as to cover all of the Registrable Securities not covered by such initial Shelf Registration Statement until such time as all Registrable Securities have been included in Shelf Registration Statements that have been declared effective and the prospectuses contained therein are available for use by the Holders, in each case as soon as practicable (taking into account any position of the staff of the Commission with respect to the date on which the Commission will permit such additional Shelf Registration Statement(s) to be filed and the rules and regulations of the Commission).

In no event shall any Holder be identified as a statutory underwriter in the registration statement unless in response to a comment or request from the staff of the Commission or another regulatory agency; provided, however, that if the Commission requests that a Holder be identified as a statutory underwriter in the registration statement, such Holder will have an opportunity to withdraw from the registration statement;

(c)Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder will (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment there may be one or more legal or equitable defenses available to such indemnified party which are in addition to or may conflict with those available to the indemnifying party with respect to such claim or unless such representation would present a conflict of interest, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. The failure to so notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability hereunder with respect to the action, except to the extent that such indemnifying party is materially prejudiced by the failure to give such notice; provided, however, that any such failure shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any other liability which it may have to any other party.

(d)Contribution. If for any reason the indemnification provided for in Section 2.04(a) and Section 2.04(b), is unavailable to an indemnified party as contemplated by Section 2.04(a) and Section 2.04(b), then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, but also the relative fault of the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. In no event shall the liability of any selling Holder be greater in amount than the amount of the gross proceeds received by such Holder upon such sale or the amount for which such indemnifying party would have been obligated to pay by way of indemnification if the indemnification provided in Section 2.04(b) had been available.
