Exercise
Limitations ;
Holder’s Restrictions . The Holder shall
not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant,
pursuant to Section 2(c) or otherwise, to the extent that after
giving effect to such issuance after exercise, the Holder (together
with the Holder’s affiliates), as set forth on the applicable
Notice of Exercise, would beneficially own in excess of 4.9% of the
number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after
giving effect to such issuance. For purposes of the foregoing
sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned
by the Holder and its affiliates shall include the number of shares
of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect
to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but
shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be
issuable upon (A) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion
of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its
affiliates and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or
nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company
(including, without limitation, any other Notes or Warrants)
subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the
limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any
of its affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding
sentence, for purposes of this Section 2(d), beneficial ownership
shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the
Exchange Act, it being acknowledged by Holder that the Company is
not representing to Holder that such calculation is in compliance
with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Holder is solely

whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other
securities owned by the Holder) and of which a portion of this
Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of such
Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed
to be such Holder’s determination of whether this Warrant is
exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by such Holder)
and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case
subject to such aggregate percentage limitation, and the Company
shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such
determination. For purposes of this Section 2(d), in
determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the
Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock
as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Form 10-Q or
Form 10-K (or similar form), as the case may be, (y) a more recent
public announcement by the Company or (z) any other notice by the
Company or the Company’s Transfer Agent setting forth the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the
written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within two
Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number
of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the
number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined
after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of
the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its
affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding
shares of Common Stock was reported. The provisions of
this Section 2(d) may be waived by the Holder upon, at the election
of the Holder, not less than 61 days’ prior notice to the
Company, and the provisions of this Section 2(d) shall continue to
apply until such 61 st day (or such later date, as determined by the

and free from all taxes, liens and charges in respect of the issue
thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring
contemporaneously with such issue). The Company
covenants that during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it
will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a
sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the
Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this
Warrant. The Company further covenants that its issuance
of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who
are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to
execute and issue the necessary certificates for the Warrant Shares
upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this
Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable
action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may

of Certificates Upon Exercise . Certificates for
shares purchased hereunder shall be transmitted by the transfer
agent of the Company 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 a participant in such
system, and otherwise by physical delivery to the address specified
by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise within 3 Trading Days from

been exercised on the date the Exercise Price is received by the
Company. The Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been
issued, and Holder or any other person so designated to be named
therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such
shares for all purposes, as of the date the Warrant has been
exercised by payment to the Company of the Exercise Price and all
taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to
Section 2(e)(vii) prior to the issuance of such shares, have been
paid.

of New Warrants Upon Exercise . If this Warrant
shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the time
of delivery of the certificate or certificates representing Warrant
Shares, deliver to Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of
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.
|
|
|
Rescission Rights . If the Company fails to cause
its transfer agent to transmit to the Holder a certificate or
certificates representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to this
Section 2(e)(iv) by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the
Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.
|
|
|
Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver
Certificates Upon Exercise . In addition to any
other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails to cause
its transfer agent to transmit to the Holder a certificate or
certificates representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to an
exercise on or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date, and if after
such date the Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an
open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to
deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant
Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a
“ Buy-In” ), then the Company shall (1) pay in
cash to the Holder the amount by which (x) the Holder’s total
purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the
shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained
by multiplying (A) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company
was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the
exercise at issue times (B) the price at which the sell order
giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (2) at
the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the
Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such
exercise was not honored or deliver to the Holder the number of
shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company
timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations
hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases Common
Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In
with respect to an attempted exercise of shares of Common Stock
with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase
obligation of $10,000, under clause (1) of the immediately
preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Holder
$1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice
indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the
Buy-In, together with applicable confirmations and other evidence
reasonably requested by the Company. Nothing herein
shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies
available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without
limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive
relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely
deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon
exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms
hereof.
|
|
|
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 Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such
exercise, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of
such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied
by the Exercise Price.
|
|
|
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 , 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.
|
|
|
Closing of
Books . The Company will not close its stockholder
books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise
of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof.
|
Section
3 .

Dividends and Splits . If the Company, at any time while this
Warrant is outstanding: (A) pays a stock dividend or otherwise make
a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or
any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares
of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include
any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company pursuant to this
Warrant), (B) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
larger number of shares, (C) combines (including by way of reverse
stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller
number of shares, or (D) issues by reclassification of shares of
the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then
in each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction
of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common
Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding before such
event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding after such event and the number of shares
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately
adjusted. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section
3(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for
the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend
or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the
effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or
re-classification.
|
|
|
Subsequent
Equity Sales . If the
Company or any Subsidiary thereof, as applicable, at any time while
this Warrant is outstanding, shall offer, sell, grant any option to
purchase or offer, sell or grant any right to reprice its
securities, or otherwise dispose of or issue (or announce any
offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition)
any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents entitling any Person
to acquire shares of Common Stock, at an effective price per share
less than the then Exercise Price (such lower price, the “
Base Share Price ” and such issuances collectively, a
“ Dilutive Issuance ”), as adjusted hereunder
(if the holder of the Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents so
issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase price
adjustments, reset provisions, floating conversion, exercise or
exchange prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options or rights
per share which is issued in connection with such issuance, be
entitled to receive shares of Common Stock at an effective price
per share which is less than the Exercise Price, such issuance
shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Exercise Price),
then, the Exercise Price shall be reduced to equal the Base Share
Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable hereunder shall be
increased such that the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder,
