that NAME (the “ Holder ”),
is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from
the Company, at any time or from time to time at or before the
earlier of 5:00 p.m. New York City time on [insert 5 years from
issue date] (the “ Expiration Date ”) and
the termination of this Warrant as provided in Section 8 hereof, up
to [ XXX ] shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per
share, of the Company (the “ Common Stock ”), at
a purchase price (the “ Exercise Price ”) equal
to $1.75 per share, as adjusted upon the occurrence of certain
events as set forth in Section 3 of this Warrant. The
shares of stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are
hereinafter referred to as the “ Warrant Stock
”.
1.1
Manner of Exercise: Payment in Cash . This Warrant may be
exercised by the Holder, in whole or in part, by surrendering this
Warrant, with the purchase form appended hereto as Exhibit A
duly executed by the Holder, at the principal office of the
Company, or at such other place as the Company may designate,
accompanied by payment in full of the Exercise Price payable in
respect of the number of shares of Warrant Stock purchased upon
such exercise. Payment of the Exercise Price shall be in cash or by
certified or official bank check payable to the order of the
Company.
1.2
Effectiveness . Each exercise of this Warrant shall be
deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of
business on the day on which this Warrant shall have been
surrendered to the Company as provided in Section 1.1 above. At
such time, the person or persons in whose name or names any
certificates for Warrant Stock shall be issuable upon such exercise
as provided in Section 1.5 below shall be deemed to
have become the holder or holders of record of the Warrant Stock
represented by such certificates.
1.3.
Delivery of Certificates . As soon as practicable after the
exercise of this Warrant in full or in part, and in any event
within ten (10) business days thereafter, the Company at its sole
expense will cause to be issued in the name of, and delivered to,
the Holder, or, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such
person as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any
applicable transfer taxes) may direct:
(a) A
certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of
Warrant Stock to which such Holder shall be entitled upon such
exercise plus, in lieu of any fractional share to which such Holder
would otherwise be entitled, cash in an amount determined pursuant
to Section 2 hereof, and
(b) In
case such exercise is in part only, a new warrant or warrants
(dated the date hereof) of like tenor, calling in the aggregate on
the face or faces thereof for the number of shares of Warrant Stock
(without giving effect to any adjustment therein) equal to the
number of such shares called for on the face of this Warrant minus
the number of such shares purchased by the Holder upon such
exercise as provided in Section 1.1 above.
2.
Fractional Shares . The Company shall not be required upon
the exercise of this Warrant to issue any fractional shares. As to
any fraction of a share which the 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.
3.1
Changes in Common Stock . If the Company shall (i) combine
the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a lesser number of
shares, (ii) subdivide the outstanding shares of Common Stock into
a greater number of shares, or (iii) issue additional shares of
Common Stock as a dividend or other distribution with respect to
the Common Stock, the number of shares of Warrant Stock shall be
equal to the number of shares which the Holder would have been
entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events
described above if such shares had been issued immediately prior to
the happening of such event, such adjustment to become effective
concurrently with the effectiveness of such event. The Exercise
Price in effect immediately prior to any such combination of Common
Stock shall, upon the effectiveness of such combination, be
proportionately increased. The Exercise Price in effect immediately
prior to any such subdivision of Common Stock or at the record date
of such dividend shall upon the effectiveness of such subdivision
or immediately after the record date of such dividend be
proportionately reduced.
3.2
Reorganizations and Reclassifications . If there shall occur
any capital reorganization or reclassification of the Common Stock
(other than a change in par value or a subdivision or combination
as provided for in Section 3.1), then, as part of any such
reorganization or reclassification, lawful provision shall be made
so that the Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive upon
the exercise hereof the kind and amount of shares of stock or other
securities or property which such Holder would have been entitled
to receive if, immediately prior to any such reorganization or
reclassification, such Holder had held the number of shares of
Common Stock which were then purchasable upon the exercise of this
Warrant. In any such case, appropriate adjustment (as reasonably
determined by the Board of Directors of the Company) shall be made
in the application of the provisions set forth herein with respect
to the rights and interests thereafter of the Holder such that the
provisions set forth in this Section 3 (including provisions with
respect to adjustment of the Exercise Price) shall thereafter be
applicable, as nearly as is reasonably practicable, in relation to
any shares of stock or other securities or property thereafter
deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant.
3.3
Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets . If there
shall be a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into
another corporation (other than a merger or reorganization
involving only a change in the state of incorporation of the
Company or the acquisition by the Company of other businesses where
the Company survives as a going concern), or the sale of all or
substantially all of the Company’s capital stock or assets to
any other person, then as a part of such transaction, provision
shall be made so that the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to
receive the number of shares of stock or other securities or
property of the Company, or of the successor corporation resulting
from the merger, consolidation or sale (and at a total purchase
price not to exceed that payable upon the exercise in full of this
Warrant), to which the Holder would have been entitled if the
Holder had exercised its rights pursuant to the Warrant immediately
prior thereto. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be
made in the application of the provisions of this Section 3 to the
end that the provisions of this Section 3 shall be applicable after
that event in as nearly equivalent a manner as may be
practicable.
3.4
Certain Anti-Dilution Adjustments . If during the times set
forth below while any portion of this Warrant remains outstanding,
the Company shall issue shares of Common Stock (or rights,
warrants, or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for
shares of Common Stock), other than issuances covered by Sections
3.1, 3.2 or 3.3 above, at a price per share (or having an exercise,
conversion, or exchange price per share) less than the Exercise
Price in effect as of the date of issuance of such shares or of
such rights, warrants, or other convertible or exchangeable
securities, then, and in each such case, the Exercise Price shall
be reduced (i) until the completion by the Company of financings
providing cumulative gross proceeds of at least $10,000,000,
involving the issuance of shares of Common Stock or securities
convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of
Common Stock, to a price equal to the issuance, conversion,
exchange or exercise price, as applicable, of any such securities
so issued and (ii) thereafter to a price determined by dividing (a)
an amount equal to the sum of (A) the number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding and shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion or exchange of securities of the Company outstanding
immediately prior to such issue or sale multiplied by the then
existing Exercise Price and (B) the consideration, if any, received
by the Corporation upon such issue or sale by (b) the total number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding and shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion or exchange of securities of the Company
outstanding immediately after such issue or sale. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in clause (i) of this Section, the
dilution protection afforded therein shall continue until the
cumulative gross proceeds of such next financing(s) reach at least
$10,000,000 and shall extend to the full amount of the gross
proceeds from any integrated offering wherein this threshold is
achieved. Notwithstanding anything contrary in this
Section, there shall be no reduction to the Exercise Price pursuant
to this Section with respect to (i) the issuance or sale of options
to purchase shares of Common Stock to employees, consultants and
directors, (ii) the issuance of securities pursuant to the
conversion or exercise of convertible or exercisable securities as
of the date of this Warrant, (as adjusted for recapitalizations,
stock splits, and the like) which are currently outstanding as of
the date of this Warrant or (iii) the issuance of securities as
consideration for a bona fide business acquisition of or by the
Company, whether by merger, consolidation, sale of assets, sale or
exchange of stock or otherwise, which involves a third party which
is not affiliated with the Company or its current stockholders or
in a strategic alliance, collaboration or similar
transaction.
3.5
No Impairment . The Company will not, by amendment of its
Certificate of Incorporation or any other organizational or
shareholder rights documents of the Company, or through any
reorganization, recapitalization, transfer of assets,
consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or
any other voluntary action, seek to avoid the observance or
performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed
hereunder by the Company, but will at all times in good faith
assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Section 3
and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or
appropriate in order to protect the rights of the holder of this
Warrant against impairment.
3.6
Certificate of Adjustment . When any adjustment is required
to be made in the Exercise Price, the Company shall promptly mail
to the Holder a certificate setting forth the Exercise Price after
such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts
requiring such adjustment. Delivery of such certificate shall be
deemed to be a final and binding determination with respect to such
adjustment unless challenged by the Holder by delivery to the
Company of a written notice of challenge within ten (10) days of
receipt thereof. Such certificate shall also set forth the kind and
amount of stock or other securities or property into which this
Warrant shall be exercisable following the occurrence of any of the
events specified in this Section 3.

Stock shall have been effectively registered under the Securities
Act, the Company shall be under no obligation to issue the Warrant
Stock unless and until the Holder shall have executed a customary
investment letter in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
the Company, including a warranty at the time of such exercise that
the Holder is an ‘accredited investor” (as defined in
Section 501 of the Securities Act) and is acquiring such shares for
