Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be

Initial Exercise 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 copy of the Notice of
Exercise Form annexed hereto; and, within three Trading Days of the
date said Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company, the
Company shall have received payment of the aggregate Exercise Price
of the shares thereby purchased by wire transfer or cashier’s
check drawn on a United States bank. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to
physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder
has purchased 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
Trading Days of the date the final Notice of Exercise is delivered
to the Company. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in
purchases of a
3
portion of the total number of
Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of
reducing the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable
hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant
Shares purchased. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records
showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date of such
purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of
Exercise Form within one Business Day of receipt of such notice. In
the event of any dispute or discrepancy, the records of the Company
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 purchase of a portion of the Warrant
Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for
purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount
stated on the face hereof.
b) Exercise Price . The
exercise price per share of the Common Stock under this Warrant
shall be $2.31, subject to adjustment hereunder (the “
Exercise Price ”).
c) 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 physical
delivery to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of
Exercise by the date that is three Trading Days after the latest of
(A) the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise
Form, (B) surrender of this Warrant (if required) and
(C) payment of the aggregate Exercise Price as set forth above
(such date, the “ Warrant Share Delivery Date
”). This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised on
the first date on which all of the foregoing have been delivered to
the Company. The Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been
issued, and the 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, with payment to the Company of the Exercise Price and
all taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to
Section 2(c)(iv) prior to the issuance of such shares,
having been paid.
ii. Delivery of New Warrants Upon
Exercise . If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part,
the Company shall, at the request of a 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, at its election,
either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in
an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Exercise Price
or round up to the next whole share.
4
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, 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.
v. 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.
d) Reserved.
e) Holder’s Exercise
Limitations . The Company shall not effect any exercise of this
Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any
portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 2 or
otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance
after exercise as set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise,
the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any
other Persons acting as a group together with the Holder or any of
the Holder’s Affiliates), would beneficially own in excess of
the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). 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 such determination 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 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(e) ,
beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with
Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by the
Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such
calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the
Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules
required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that
the limitation contained in this Section 2(e) applies,
the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in
relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any
Affiliates) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable
shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission
of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be the Holder’s
determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation
to other securities owned by the Holder together with any
Affiliates) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in
each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the
Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm
the
5
accuracy of such determination. In
addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated
above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of
the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder. For purposes of this Section 2(e) , in
determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a
Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock
as reflected in (A) the Company’s most recent periodic
or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be,
(B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or
(C) a more recent written notice by the Company or the
Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a 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
“ Beneficial Ownership Limitation ” shall be
4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common
Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Holder, upon not
less than 61 days’ prior notice to the Company, may increase
or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this
Section 2(e) , provided that the Beneficial Ownership
Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the
issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant
held by the Holder and the provisions of this
Section 2(e) shall continue to apply. Any such increase
or decrease will not be effective until the 61st day after such
notice is delivered to the Company. The provisions of this
paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise
than in strict conformity with the terms of this
Section 2(e) to correct this paragraph (or any portion
hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended
Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes
or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to
such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall
apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.

Section 3. Certain
Adjustments . The Exercise Price shall be adjusted from time to
time as follows:
a) Adjustment upon Issuance of
Common Stock . Subject to stockholder approval of this
Section 3(a) , if at any time on or after the Initial
Exercise Date the Company issues or sells, or in accordance with
this is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock
(including the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock owned or
held by or for the account of the Company, but excluding Excluded
Securities) for a consideration per share (the “ New
Issuance Price ”) less than a price (the “
Applicable Price ”) equal to the Exercise Price in
effect immediately prior to such issue or sale or deemed issuance
or sale (the foregoing, a “ Dilutive Issuance
”), then immediately after such Dilutive Issuance the
Exercise Price then in effect shall be reduced to an amount equal
to the New Issuance Price. For purposes of determining the adjusted
Exercise Price under this Section 3(a) , the following
shall be applicable:
i. Issuance of Options . If
the Company in any manner grants any Options and the lowest price
per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the
exercise of any such Option or upon conversion, exercise or
exchange of any Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of
any such Option is less than the Applicable Price, then such share
of Common Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been
issued and sold by the Company at the time of the granting or sale
of such Option for such price per share. For purposes of this
Section 3(a)(i) , the “lowest price per share for
which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon exercise of such
Options or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such
Convertible Securities” shall be equal to the sum of the
lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by
the Company with respect to any one share of Common Stock upon the
granting or sale of the Option, upon exercise of the Option and
upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Security
issuable upon exercise of such Option. No further adjustment of the
Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such
Common Stock or of such Convertible Securities upon the exercise of
such Options or upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon
conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible
Securities.
ii. Issuance of Convertible
Securities . If the Company in any manner issues or sells any
Convertible Securities and the lowest price per share for which one
share of Common Stock is issuable upon the conversion, exercise or
exchange thereof is less than the Applicable Price, then such share
of Common Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been
issued and sold by the Company at the time of the issuance or sale
of such Convertible Securities for such price per share. For the
purposes of this Section 3(a)(ii) , the “lowest
price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable
upon the conversion, exercise or exchange” shall be equal to
the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or
receivable by the Company with respect to one share of Common Stock
upon the issuance or sale of the Convertible Security and upon
conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Security. No
further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon the
actual issuance of such Common Stock upon conversion, exercise or
exchange of such Convertible Securities, and if any such issue or
sale of such Convertible Securities is made upon exercise of any
Options for which adjustment of this Warrant h
