10% CONVERTIBLE NOTE

 

$____________

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Aethlon Medical, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "Company"), promises to pay to ______________________, whose address is _________________________, or registered assigns (the "Holder"), the sum of _________________________ ($___________) in lawful money of the United States of America on or before the Maturity Date as defined herein, with all Interest thereon as defined and specified herein.

 

1.       Interest. Unless there shall be an Event of Default, this Note shall bear interest ("Interest") equal to ten percent (10%) per annum on the unpaid principal balance, computed on a three hundred sixty (360)-day year, during the term of the Note. The Company shall pay all Interest on or before the Maturity Date. In no event shall the rate of Interest payable on this Note exceed the maximum rate of Interest permitted to be charged under applicable law. On and after an Event of Default, this Note shall bear Interest equal to twelve percent (12%) per annum on the unpaid principal balance, computed on a three hundred sixty (360)-day year.

 

2.       Payments. All payments under this Note shall first be credited against the payment of accrued and unpaid Interest, if any, and the remainder shall be credited against principal. All payments due hereunder shall be payable in legal tender of the United States of America, and in same day funds delivered to Holder by cashier's check, certified check, bank wire transfer or any other means of guaranteed funds to the mailing address provided below, or at such other place as the Holder shall designate in writing for such purpose from time to time. If a payment under this Note otherwise would become due and payable on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday (any other day being a "Business Day"), the due date of the payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and Interest, if any, shall be payable thereon during such extension.

 

3.       Pre-Payments and Maturity Date. This Note shall be due and payable in full, including all accrued Interest thereon, on October 9, 2013 (the "Maturity Date"). At any time on or prior to the Maturity Date, the Company shall have the right to prepay this Note, in whole or in part, provided that on such prepayment date, the Company will pay in respect of the redeemed Note cash equal to the face amount plus accrued Interest on the Note (or portion thereof) redeemed. At any time after the Maturity Date, the Company shall have the right to repay this Note subject to the right of the Holder to convert in advance of such repayment date. The Company may prepay this Note at any time after issuance without penalty.

 

 
 

4.       Conversion of Note Upon an Event of Default; Issuance Of Purchase Warrant.

 

4.1       Conversion of Note/Conversion Price. At any time after the Maturity Date, any unpaid portion of the principal and Interest due and payable under this Note shall be convertible in whole or in part, at the option of the Holder, into shares of the Company's Common Stock (the "Common Stock") at a price per share equal to 80% of the closing bid price of the Common Stock of the Company on the trading day immediately prior to the date of issuance of this Note (the "Conversion Price"). For clarity, the Conversion Price of this Note is $0.088 per share. No fractional shares will be issued. In lieu thereof, the Company will pay cash for fractional share amounts equal to the fair market value of the Common Stock as quoted as the closing bid price of the Common Stock on the date of conversion.

 

4.2       Adjustment Based Upon Stock Dividends, Combination of Shares or Recapitalization. The Conversion Price shall be adjusted in the event that the Company shall at any time (i) pay a stock dividend on the Common Stock; (ii) subdivide its outstanding Common Stock into a greater number of shares; (iii) combine its outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares; (iv) issue by reclassification of its Common Stock any other special capital stock of the Company; or (v) distribute to all holders of Common Stock evidences of indebtedness or assets (excluding cash dividends) or rights or warrants to subscribe for Common Stock (other than those mentioned above). Upon the occurrence of an event requiring adjustment of the Conversion Price, and thereafter, the Holder, upon surrender of this Note for conversion, shall be entitled to receive the number of shares of Common Stock or other capital stock of the Company that the Holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events described above had this Note been converted immediately prior to the happening of such event.

 

4.2       Adjustment Based Upon Merger or Consolidation. In case of any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party (other than a merger in which the Company is the surviving entity and which does not result in any reclassification of or change in the outstanding Common Stock of the Company), or in case of any sale or conveyance to another person, firm, or corporation of the property of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, the Holder shall have the right to convert this Note into the kind and amount of securities and property (including cash) receivable upon such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance by the Holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such Note might have been converted immediately prior thereto.

 

4.3       Exercise of Conversion Privilege.

 

4.3.1       The Conversion Privilege provided for in this Note shall be exercisable by the Holder by written notice to the Company or its successor and the surrender of this Note in exchange for the number of shares (or other securities and property, including cash, in the event of an adjustment of the Conversion Price) into which this Note is convertible based upon the Conversion Price.

 

 
 

4.3.2       The Holder's conversion right may be exercised at any time and from time to time but prior to payment in full of the principal amount of the accrued Interest on this Note.

 

4.3.3       The Holder may exercise the right to convert all or any portion of the principal amount and accrued Interest on this Note by delivery of (i) this Note and (ii) a completed Conversion Notice in the form attached as Exhibit A on a Business Day to the Company's principal executive offices. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the Business Day of such delivery a conversion notice (the "Conversion Date"), and the Holder shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of the shares of Common Stock into which this Note is converted as of such date.

 

4.4       Issuance of Certificate. Upon the conversion of this Note, the Company shall, within five (5) Business Days of such conversion, issue to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing the number of shares of the Common Stock (or other securities in the event of an adjustment of the Conversion Price) to which the conversion relates. In the alternative, the Company shall instruct the issuance of shares electronically as a "DWAC" issuance.

 

              4.5       Issuance of Purchase Warrant. Upon the conversion of this Note, or any portion of the principal or Interest due and payable hereunder, the Holder shall receive, in addition to the Common Stock issuable hereunder, a warrant (the "Warrant") to purchase shares of Common Stock equal to (x) 50% of the dollar amount of the principal and Interest being converted, divided by (y) $0.088 (the "Warrant Shares"). The Warrant Shares shall be exercisable at a per share price of $0.132 per share (equivalent to 120% of the closing bid price of the Common Stock on the trading day immediately prior to the issuance date of this Note). The Warrant shall be in the form of that attached hereto as Exhibit B.

 

5.       Reservation of Shares of Common Stock. The Company shall reserve out of its authorized shares of Common Stock, and other securities in the event of an adjustment of the Conversion Price, a number of shares sufficient to enable it to comply with its obligation to issue shares of Common Stock under this Note and under the Warrant, and other securities in the event of an adjustment of the Conversion Price, upon the conversion of this Note or the exercise of the Warrant.

6.2       If an opinion of counsel of Holder provides that registration is not required for the proposed conversion or transfer of this Note or the proposed transfer of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion and that the proposed conversion or transfer in the absence of registration would require the Company to take any action including executing and filing forms or other documents with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") or any state securities agency, or delivering to the Holder any form or document in order to establish the right of the Holder to effectuate the proposed conversion or transfer, the Company agrees promptly, at its expense, to take any such action; and provided, further, that the Company will reimburse the Holder in full for any expenses (including but not limited to the fees and disbursements of such counsel, but excluding brokers' commissions) incurred by the Holder or owner of shares of Common Stock on his, her or its behalf in connection with such conversion or transfer of the Note or transfer of the shares of Common Stock.

7.4       No Waiver. Failure of the Holder to exercise any option hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise the same in the event of any subsequent Event of Default, or in the event of continuance of any existing Event of Default after demand or performance thereof.

 

8.       Assignment, Transfer or Loss of the Note.

 

8.1       No Holder of this Note may assign, transfer, hypothecate or sell all or any part of this Note or in any way alienate or encumber the Note without the express written consent of the Company, the granting or denial of which shall be within the absolute discretion of the Company.

This Common Stock Purchase Warrant (this “Warrant”) is being issued to the Holder in connection with the conversion of that 10% Convertible Promissory Note dated July__, 2013 issued by Company to Holder. This Warrant may be exercised at any time and from time to time but no later than 5:00 p.m., P.S.T., seven years from the date of issuance of this Warrant (the “Expiration Date”), at which point it shall become void and all rights under this Warrant shall cease.

(d)       The term “Warrant Shares” shall mean the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.

 

1.       Exercise of Warrant.

1.2.       Full Exercise. This Warrant may be exercised in full by the Holder hereof by delivery of an original or facsimile copy of the form of subscription attached as Exhibit A hereto (the “Subscription Form”) duly executed by such Holder and delivery within two (2) days thereafter of payment, in cash, wire transfer or by certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company, in the amount obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is then exercisable by the Purchase Price then in effect. The original Warrant is not required to be surrendered to the Company until it has been fully exercised.

 

1.3.       Partial Exercise. This Warrant may be exercised in part (but not for a fractional share) by delivery of a Subscription Form in the manner and at the place provided in subsection 1.2, except that the amount payable by the Holder on such partial exercise shall be the amount obtained by multiplying (a) the number of whole shares of Common Stock designated by the Holder in the Subscription Form by (b) the Purchase Price then in effect. On any such partial exercise, provided the Holder has surrendered the original Warrant, the Company, at its expense, will forthwith issue and deliver to or upon the order of the Holder hereof a new Warrant of like tenor, in the name of the Holder hereof or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may request, the whole number of shares of Common Stock for which such Warrant may still be exercised.

 

1.4.       Company Acknowledgment. The Company will, at the time of the exercise of the Warrant, upon the request of the Holder hereof, acknowledge in writing its continuing obligation to afford to such Holder any rights to which such Holder shall continue to be entitled after such exercise in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. If the Holder shall fail to make any such request, such failure shall not affect the continuing obligation of the Company to afford to such Holder any such rights.

 

1.5       Delivery of Stock Certificates, etc. on Exercise. The Company agrees that the shares of Common Stock purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to be issued to the Holder hereof as the record owner of such shares as of the close of business on the date on which delivery of a Subscription Form shall have occurred and payment shall have been made for such shares as aforesaid. As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in full or in part, and in any event within five (5) business days thereafter, the Company at its expense (including the payment by it of any applicable issue taxes) will cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to the Holder hereof, or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct in compliance with applicable securities laws, a certificate or certificates for the number of duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) to which such Holder shall be entitled on such exercise, plus, in lieu of any fractional share to which such Holder would otherwise be entitled, cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the then fair market value of one full share of Common Stock, together with any other stock or other securities and property (including cash, where applicable) to which such Holder is entitled upon such exercise pursuant to Section 1 or otherwise.

 

 
 

2.       Adjustment for Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, etc.

 

2.1. Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (A) the Company effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity, (B) the Company effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (C) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another entity) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property, (D) the Company consummates a stock purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with one or more persons or entities whereby such other persons or entities acquire more than 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (not including any shares of Common Stock held by such other persons or entities making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other persons or entities making or party to, such stock purchase agreement or other business combination), (E) any "person" or "group" (as these terms are used for purposes of Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the 1934 Act) is or shall become the "beneficial owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the 1934 Act), directly or indirectly, of 50% of the aggregate Common Stock of the Company, or (F) the Company effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (in any such case, a "Fundamental Transaction"), then, upon any subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the option of the Holder, (a) upon exercise of this Warrant, the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the "Alternate Consideration") receivable upon or as a result of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets by a Holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such event or (b) if the Company is acquired in (1) a transaction where the consideration paid to the holders of the Common Stock consists solely of cash, (2) a “Rule 13e-3 transaction” as defined in Rule 13e-3 under the 1934 Act, or (3) a transaction involving a person or entity not traded on a national securities exchange, the Nasdaq Global Select Market, the Nasdaq Global Market or the Nasdaq Capital Market, cash equal to the Black-Scholes Value. For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the Purchase Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Purchase Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then 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. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any successor to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall issue to the Holder a new warrant consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holder's right to exercise such warrant into Alternate Consideration. The terms of any agreement pursuant to which a Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this Section 3.1 and insuring that this Warrant (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction. “Black-Scholes Value” shall be determined in accordance with the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model obtained from the “OV” function on Bloomberg L.P. using (i) a price per share of Common Stock equal to the VWAP of the Common Stock for the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, (ii) a risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the remaining term of this Warrant as of the date of such request and (iii) an expected volatility equal to the 100 day volatility obtained from the HVT function on Bloomberg L.P. determined as of the Trading Day immediately following the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction.

 

 
 

2.2.       Dissolution. In the event of any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company in connection with a plan of complete liquidation of the Company, or in the case of the dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company, all rights under this Warrant shall terminate on a date fixed by the Company, such date so fixed to be not earlier than the date of the commencement of the proceedings for such dissolution, liquidation or winding-up and not later than thirty (30) days after such commencement date. Notice of such termination of purchase rights shall be given to the Holder at least thirty (30) days prior to such termination date.

 

2.3.       Continuation of Terms. Except as provided in Section 2.2, upon any reorganization, consolidation, merger or transfer referred to in this Section 3, this Warrant shall continue in full force and effect and the terms hereof shall be applicable to the Other Securities and property receivable on the exercise of this Warrant after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger, as the case may be, and shall be binding upon the issuer of any Other Securities, including, in the case of any such transfer, the person acquiring all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Company, whether or not such person shall have expressly assumed the terms of this Warrant as provided in Section 3.1. In the event this Warrant does not continue in full force and effect after the consummation of the transaction described in this Section 2, then the Company shall at its expense deliver or cause to be delivered the securities and property (including cash, where applicable) receivable by the Holder of the Warrants to a bank or trust company having its principal office in California, as trustee for the Holder of the Warrants. Such property shall be delivered to the Holder only upon payment of the Warrant exercise price.

 

3.       Extraordinary Events Regarding Common Stock. In the event that the Company shall (a) issue additional shares of the Common Stock as a dividend or other distribution on outstanding Common Stock, (b) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock, or (c) combine its outstanding shares of the Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of the Common Stock, then, in each such event, the Purchase Price shall, simultaneously with the happening of such event, be adjusted by multiplying the then Purchase Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the product so obtained shall thereafter be the Purchase Price then in effect. The Purchase Price, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of any successive event or events described herein in this Section 4. The number of shares of Common Stock that the Holder of this Warrant shall thereafter, on the exercise hereof, be entitled to receive shall be adjusted to a number determined by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 4) be issuable on such exercise by a fraction of which (a) the numerator is the Purchase Price that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 4) be in effect, and (b) the denominator is the Purchase Price in effect on the date of such exercise.

 

4.       Certificate as to Adjustments. In each case of any adjustment or readjustment in the shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on the exercise of the Warrants, the Company at its expense will promptly cause its Chief Financial Officer or other appropriate designee to compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms of the Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based, including a statement of (a) the consideration received or receivable by the Company for any additional shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold, (b) the number of shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) outstanding or deemed to be outstanding, and (c) the Purchase Price and the number of shares of Common Stock to be received upon exercise of this Warrant, in effect immediately prior to such adjustment or readjustment and as adjusted or readjusted as provided in this Warrant. The Company will forthwith mail a copy of each such certificate to the Holder of the Warrant and any Warrant Agent of the Company (appointed pursuant to Section 10 hereof).

 

 
 

5.       Rights of Holder. Nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as conferring upon the Holder the right to vote or consent or receive notice as a stockholder in respect of any meetings of stockholders for the election of directors or any other matter, or as having any rights whatsoever as a stockholder of the Company. If, however, at any time prior to the expiration of this Warrant and prior to its exercise, any of the following shall occur:

 

5.1.       The Company shall take a record of the holders of its shares of Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or distribution payable otherwise than in cash, or a cash dividend or distribution payable otherwise than out of current or retained earnings, as indicated by the accounting treatment of such dividend or distribution on the books of the Company; or

 

5.2        There shall be proposed any capital reorganization or reclassification of the Common Stock, or a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or a consolidation or merger of the Company with another entity;

 

then, in any one or more of said cases, the Company shall cause to be mailed to the Holder, at the earliest practicable time (and, in any event, not less than thirty (30) days before any record date or other date set for definitive action), written notice of the date on which the books of the Company shall close or a record shall be taken to determine the stockholders entitled to such dividend or distribution or entitled to vote on such reorganization, reclassification, sale, consolidation or merger, as the case may be. Such notice shall also set forth such facts as shall indicate the effect of such action (to the extent such effect may be known at the date of such notice) on the Purchase Price and the kind and amount of the Common Stock and other securities and property deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant. Such notice shall also specify the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record shall participate in said distribution or shall be entitled to exchange their Common Stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, sale, consolidation or merger, as the case may be. Without limiting the obligation of the Company to provide notice to the Holder of actions hereunder, it is agreed that failure of the Company to give notice shall not invalidate such action of the Company.

 

6.       Reservation of Stock, etc. Issuable on Exercise of Warrant; Financial Statements. The Company will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery on the exercise of the Warrants, all shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) from time to time issuable on the exercise of the Warrant. This Warrant entitles the Holder hereof to receive copies of all financial and other information distributed or required to be distributed to the holders of the Company's Common Stock.

 

7.       Assignment; Exchange of Warrant. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, this Warrant, and the rights evidenced hereby, may be transferred by any registered holder hereof (a "Transferor"). On the surrender for exchange of this Warrant, with the Transferor's endorsement in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto (the “Transferor Endorsement Form") and together with an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that the transfer of this Warrant will be in compliance with applicable securities laws, the Company will issue and deliver to or on the order of the Transferor thereof a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor, in the name of the Transferor and/or the transferee(s) (upon payment by such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) specified in such Transferor Endorsement Form (each a "Transferee"), calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock called for on the face or faces of the Warrant so surrendered by the Transferor.

 

8.       Replacement of Warrant. On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction of this Warrant, on delivery of an indemnity agreement or security reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of any such mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company at its expense, twice only, will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.

 

 
 

9.       Registration Under the Securities Act of 1933.

 

9.1.       Registration and Legends. The Holder understands that (i) the Company has not registered the Warrant or the Warrant Shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the applicable securities laws of any state in reliance on exemptions from registration and (ii) such exemptions depend upon the Holder's investment intent at the time the Holder acquires the Warrant or the Warrant Shares. The Holder therefore represents and warrants that it is acquiring the Warrant, and will acquire the Warrant Shares, for the Holder's own account for investment and not with a view to distribution, assignment, resale or other transfer of the Warrant or the Warrant Shares. Because the Warrant and the Warrant Shares are not registered, the Holder is aware that the Holder must hold them indefinitely unless they are registered under the Securities Act and any applicable securities laws or the Holder must obtain exemptions from such registration. Upon exercise, in part or in whole, of this Warrant, the Warrant Shares shall bear the following legend:

 

The shares of Common Stock represented by this certificate have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("Act") or any applicable state securities laws, and they may not be offered for sale, sold, transferred, pledged or hypothecated without an effective registration statement under the Act and under any applicable state securities laws, or an opinion of counsel, satisfactory to the company, that an exemption from such registration is available.

 

10.       Warrant Agent. The Company may, by written notice to the Holder of the Warrant, appoint an agent (a “Warrant Agent”) for the purpose of issuing Common Stock (or Other Securities) on the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to Section 1, exchanging this Warrant pursuant to Section 7, and replacing this Warrant pursuant to Section 8 or any of the foregoing, and thereafter any such issuance, exchange or replacement, as the case may be, shall be made at such office by such Warrant Agent.

 

11.       Transfer on the Company's Books. Until this Warrant is transferred on the books of the Company, the Company may treat the registered holder hereof as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

 

12.       Notices. All notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals, and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and, unless otherwise specified herein, shall be (i) personally served, (ii) deposited in the mail, registered or certified, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, (iii) delivered by reputable air courier service with charges prepaid, or (iv) transmitted by hand delivery, telegram, or facsimile, addressed as set forth below or to such other address as such party shall have specified most recently by written notice. Any notice or other communication required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be deemed effective (a) upon hand delivery or delivery by facsimile, with accurate confirmation generated by the transmitting facsimile machine, at the address or number designated below (if delivered on a business day during normal business hours where such notice is to be received), or the first business day following such delivery (if delivered other than on a business day during normal business hours where such notice is to be received) or (b) on the second business day following the date of mailing by express courier service, fully prepaid, addressed to such address, or upon actual receipt of such mailing, whichever shall first occur. The addresses for such communications shall be: if to the Company, to: Aethlon Medical, Inc., 8910 University Center Lane, Suite 660, San Diego, CA 92122, Attn: James A. Joyce, CEO, telecopier: (858) 272-2738,and (ii) if to the Holder, to the Holder’s last known address and telecopier number as it shall appear on the books of the Company.

 

 
 

13.       Law Governing This Warrant. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California without regard to principles of conflicts of laws. Any action brought by either party against the other concerning the transactions contemplated by this Warrant shall be brought only in the state courts of California or in the federal courts located in the state and county of California. The parties to this Warrant hereby irrevocably waive any objection to jurisdiction and venue of any action instituted hereunder and shall not assert any defense based on lack of jurisdiction or venue or based upon forum non conveniens. The Company and Holder waive trial by jury. The prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other party its reasonable attorney's fees and costs. In the event that any provision of this Warrant or any other agreement delivered in connection herewith is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law, then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute or rule of law. Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of any agreement. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any suit, action or proceeding in connection with this Warrant by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Warrant and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

 

14.       Survival. All agreements, covenants, representations and warranties herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Warrant and any investigation at any time made by or on behalf of any parties hereto and the exercise, sale and purchase of this Warrant (and any other securities or property) issuable on exercise hereof.

 

15.       Binding Effect. All the covenants and provisions of this Warrant by or for the benefit of the Company shall bind and inure to the benefit of its successors and assigns hereunder.

 

16.       Parties Bound and Benefitted. Nothing in this Warrant expressed and nothing that may be implied from any of the provisions hereof is intended, or shall be construed, to confer upon, or give to, any person or corporation other than the Company and the Holder any right, remedy or claim under promise or agreement hereof, and all covenants, conditions, stipulations, promises and agreements contained in this Warrant shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Company and its successors and of the Holder, its successors and, if permitted, its assignees.

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has executed this Warrant as of the date first written above.
