pro rata as hereinafter provided, at any time on any Business Day
on or after the opening of business on such Business Day,
commencing with the first day after the date hereof, and prior to
11:59 P.M. Eastern Time on the Expiration Date (i) by delivery
of a written notice, in the form of the subscription notice
attached as Exhibit A hereto (the “Exercise
Notice”), of such holder's election to exercise this Warrant,
which notice shall specify the number of Warrant Shares to be
purchased, payment to the Company of an amount equal to the
Warrant Exercise Price(s) applicable to the Warrant Shares being
purchased, multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares (at the
applicable Warrant Exercise Price) as to which this Warrant is
being exercised (plus any applicable issue or transfer taxes)
(the “Aggregate Exercise Price”) in cash or wire
transfer of immediately available funds and the surrender of this
Warrant (or an indemnification undertaking with respect to this
Warrant in the case of its loss, theft or destruction) to a common
carrier for overnight delivery to the Company as soon as
practicable following such date.
(b) In
the event of any exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant
in compliance with this Section 2, the Company shall on or before
the fifth (5th) Business Day following the date of receipt of
the Exercise Notice, the Aggregate Exercise Price and this Warrant
(or an indemnification undertaking with respect to this Warrant in
the case of its loss, theft or destruction) and the receipt of the
representations of the holder specified in Section 6 hereof, if
requested by the Company (the “Exercise Delivery
Documents”), and if the Common Stock is DTC eligible, credit
such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the holder
shall be entitled to the holder's or his designee's balance account
with The Depository Trust Company; provided, however, if the holder
who submitted the Exercise Notice requested physical delivery of
any or all of the Warrant Shares, or, if the Common Stock is not
DTC eligible then the Company shall, on or before the
fifth (5th) Business Day following receipt of the Exercise
Delivery Documents, issue and surrender to a common carrier for
overnight delivery to the address specified in the Exercise Notice,
a certificate, registered in the name of the holder, for the number
of shares of Common Stock to which the holder shall be entitled
pursuant to such request. Upon delivery of the Exercise Notice and
Aggregate Exercise Price referred to above the holder of this
Warrant shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become
the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which
this Warrant has been exercised. In the case of a dispute as to the
determination of the Warrant Exercise Price or the Closing Bid
Price, the Company shall promptly issue to the holder the number of
Warrant Shares that is not disputed and shall submit the disputed
determinations or arithmetic calculations to the holder via
facsimile within one (1) Business Day of receipt of the
holder's Exercise Notice.
(c) If
the holder and the Company are unable to agree upon the
determination of the Warrant Exercise Price within one (1) day of
such disputed determination being submitted to the holder, then the
Company shall immediately submit via facsimile the disputed
determination of the Warrant Exercise Price or the Closing Bid
Price to an independent, reputable investment banking firm. The
Company shall cause the investment banking firm or the accountant,
as the case may be, to perform the determinations and notify the
Company and the holder of the results no later than forty-eight
(48) hours from the time it receives the disputed determinations.
Such investment banking firm's or accountant's determination or
calculation, as the case may be, shall be deemed conclusive absent
manifest error.
(d) Unless
the rights represented by this Warrant shall have expired or shall
have been fully exercised, the Company shall, as soon as
practicable and in no event later than five (5) Business Days after
any exercise and at its own expense, issue a new Warrant identical
in all respects to this Warrant exercised except it shall represent
rights to purchase the number of Warrant Shares purchasable
immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant exercised,
less the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which such
Warrant is exercised.
(e) No
fractional Warrant Shares are to be issued upon any pro rata
exercise of this Warrant, but rather the number of Warrant Shares
issued upon such exercise of this Warrant shall be rounded up or
down to the nearest whole number.
Section 3. Covenants as to Common Stock. The Company
hereby covenants and agrees as follows: (a) This
Warrant is, and any Warrants issued in substitution for or
replacement of this Warrant will upon issuance be, duly authorized
and validly issued. (b) All Warrant Shares which
may be issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by this
Warrant will, upon issuance, be validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens, charges, claims or
other encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof.

represented by this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will at
all times have authorized and reserved at least one hundred percent
(100%) of the number of shares of Common Stock needed to provide
for the exercise of the rights then represented by this Warrant and
the par value of said shares will at all times be less than or
equal to the applicable Warrant Exercise Price.
(d) The Company shall so list the Warrant
Shares on each national securities exchange or automated quotation
system, as the case may be, and shall maintain such listing of, any
other shares of capital stock of the Company issuable upon the
exercise of this Warrant if and so long as any shares of the same
class shall be listed on such national securities exchange or
automated quotation system. (e) The Company will
not, by amendment of its Articles of Incorporation or through any
reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger,
dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary
action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any
of the terms to be observed or performed by it hereunder, but will
