THIS COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT (this “Warrant”) certifies that, for value received, Kelly Stopher or assigns (the “Holder”) is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after the date hereof (the “Effective Date”) and on or prior to the close of business on December 19, 2021 (the “Termination Date”), but not thereafter, to subscribe for and purchase from JayHawk Energy, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), up to Seventy-Five Thousand (75,000) post 100:1 reverse split shares (the “Warrant Shares”) of Common Stock at the Exercise Price described below.  

Section 1.

Exercise.

a)

Exercise of Warrant.  Exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the Effective Date and on or before the Termination Date by delivery to the Company (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered Holder at the address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Company) of a duly executed facsimile or electronic copy of the Notice of Exercise Form annexed hereto.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder has acquired all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation within three (3) Trading Days of the date the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company.  Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in acquisition of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number



1



of Warrant Shares acquirable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares acquired.  The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares acquired and the date of such acquisitions.  The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise Form within two (2) Business Days of receipt of such notice.  In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, the records of the Holder shall be controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the acquisition of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for acquisition hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.

b)

Exercise Price. The Exercise Price for the Warrants shall be $0.01 per share and, therefore, the Holder is entitled to receive, upon any exercise hereof and subject to such exercise limitations are set forth in Section 1(d) below, the number of shares of Common Stock set forth in the Notice of Exercise delivered to the Company, by the Holder, pursuant to this Section 1.

c)

Payment of Exercise Price.  Payment of the Exercise Price shall be made as follows:

a.

Cash Exercise: cash, bank or cashier’s check or wire transfer; or


b.

Cashless Exercise:  surrender of this Warrant (if the full Warrant is being exercised) at the principal office of the Company together with notice of cashless election, in which event the Company shall issue Holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula:   X = Y (A-B)/A where: X = the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to Holder; Y = the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is being exercised; A= the Market Price of the Common Stock; and B= the Exercise Price.

i.

Market Price” shall mean the VWAP for each of the five (5) consecutive Trading Days prior to the Company’s receipt of the Holder’s Notice of Exercise form.  

ii.

Trading Day” means a day on which the principal Trading Market is open for trading.

iii.

Trading Market” the market upon which the Company’s securities are traded.

For purposes of Rule 144 and this section, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in a Cashless Exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired at the time this Warrant was issued.  Moreover, it

is intended, understood and acknowledged that the holding period for the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in a Cashless Exercise transaction shall be deemed to have commenced on the Effective Date.

d.

Mechanics of Exercise.

i.

Delivery of Certificates Upon Exercise.  Certificates for shares purchased hereunder shall be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system if the Company is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an effective Registration Statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder or (B) the shares are eligible for resale by the Holder without volume or manner-of-sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144, and otherwise by physical delivery to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that is ten (10) Trading Days after the latest of (A) the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise form, or (B) surrender of this Warrant (if required) (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”).   

ii.

 Delivery of New Warrants Upon Exercise.  If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request of the Holder and upon surrender of this Warrant certificate, at the time of delivery of the certificate or certificates representing Warrant Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant.


iii.

No Fractional Shares or Scrip.  No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant.  As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall round up to the next whole share.


iv.

Charges, Taxes and Expenses.  Issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such certificate, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; provided, however,



3



that in the event certificates for Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.


e.

Holder’s Exercise Limitations.  The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and the Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 1 or otherwise, to the extent that at the time the Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company, by the Holder, the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized shares of Common Stock held in treasury to deliver the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant.


Section 2.

Transfer of Warrant.

a)

Transferability.  Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws and the conditions set forth in Section 2(d) hereof, this Warrant and all rights hereunder (including, without limitation, any registration rights) are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company or its designated agent, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer.  Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new 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 shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled.  The Warrant, if properly assigned in accordance herewith, may be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued.  

b)

New Warrants. This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid 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 2(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a 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 Effective Date and shall be identical with this Warrant except as to the number of Warrant Shares issuable pursuant thereto.

c)

Warrant Register. The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the “Warrant Register”), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time.  The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.

d)

Transfer Restrictions. If , at the time of the surrender of this Warrant in connection with any transfer of this Warrant, the transfer of this Warrant shall not be (i) eligible for resale without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions or current public information requirements pursuant to Rule 144, the Company may require, as a condition of allowing such transfer, that the Holder or transferee of this Warrant, as the case may be, provide the Company with an opinion, to the sole satisfaction of Company, that the Warrant may be transferred pursuant to an exemption from registration.

e)

Representation by the Holder.  The Holder, by the acceptance hereof, represents and warrants that it is acquiring this Warrant and, upon any exercise hereof, will acquire the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, for its own account and not with a view to or for distributing or reselling such Warrant Shares or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law, except pursuant to sales registered or exempted under the Securities Act.

Section 3.

Miscellaneous.

a)

No Rights as Stockholder Until Exercise.  This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 1(c)(i).  

b)

Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of the Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.

e)

Restrictions.  The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws.

f)

Non-waiver and Expenses.  No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice Holder’s rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding the fact that all rights hereunder terminate on the Termination Date.  If the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.

g)

Notices.  Any notice, request or other document required or permitted to be given or delivered to the Holder by the Company shall be delivered to the Company’s registered address in the State of Nevada or the Holder’s address on file with the Company’s Transfer Agent, as applicable.

h)

Limitation of Liability.  No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

i)

Remedies.  The Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant.  The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive and not to assert the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.

j)

Successors and Assigns.  Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of the Holder.  The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of any Holder from time to time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by the Holder or holder of Warrant Shares.

k)

Amendment.  This Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company and the Holder.

l)

Severability.  Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.

m)

Headings.  The headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Warrant to be executed by its officer thereunto duly authorized as of the date first above indicated.
