exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time
on or after the date hereof (the “ Initial Exercise
Date ”) and on or prior to the close of business on

Company ”), up to ______ shares (the “
Warrant Shares ”) of Common Stock. The

Section 1 .
Definitions . Capitalized terms
used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings
set forth in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the
“ Purchase Agreement ”), dated June ___,
2008, among the Company and the purchasers signatory
thereto.
Section 2 .
Exercise .
a)
Exercise of Warrant . Exercise of
the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in
whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the 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
1
Company) of a duly executed facsimile copy of
the Notice of Exercise Form annexed hereto; and, within 3
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 3 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 portion of the total number of Warrant Shares
available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering 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 1 Business Day
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 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
$ 7.00, subject to adjustment hereunder (the “
Exercise Price ”).
c)
Cashless Exercise . This Warrant
may also be exercised by means of a “cashless
exercise” in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive
a certificate for the number of Warrant Shares equal to the
quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:
(A) = the VWAP on the Trading Day
immediately preceding the date of such election;
(B) = the Exercise Price of this Warrant,
as adjusted; and
(X) = the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this
Warrant by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless
exercise.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
on the Termination Date, this Warrant shall be automatically
exercised via cashless exercise pursuant to this Section
2(c).
d)
Holder’s Restrictions . 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
2
after exercise as set forth on the applicable
Notice of Exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder’s
Affiliates, and any other person or entity 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 (including,
without limitation, any other Common Stock Equivalents)
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 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(d)
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 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(d), 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, as the
case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the
Company or (C) any other 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 9.99% of the number of shares of
the 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 decrease the
Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 2(d),
provided that the provisions of this Section 2(d) shall continue
to apply.
3
Any such decrease will not be effective until
the 61 st 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(d) 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.
e)
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 resale of the Warrant
Shares by the Holder or (B) the shares are eligible for resale
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 within 3 Trading Days
from the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise Form,
surrender of this Warrant (if required) and payment of the
aggregate Exercise Price as set forth above (the “
Warrant Share Delivery Date ”). This Warrant
shall be deemed to have 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 (or by cashless exercise, if permitted) and all
taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to
Section 2(e)(vi) prior to the issuance of such shares, have been
paid. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the
Holder certificates evidencing the Warrant Shares subject to a
Notice of Exercise by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, the
Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages
and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Warrant Shares subject
to such exercise (based on the VWAP of the Common Stock on the
date of the applicable Notice of Exercise), $10 per Trading Day
(increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the fifth Trading Day
after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading
Day after such Warrant Share Delivery Date until such
certificates are delivered.
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 Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of Holder to
purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this
Warrant,
4
which new Warrant shall in all other respects be
identical with this Warrant.
iii.
Rescission Rights . If the Company
fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder a
certificate or the certificates representing the Warrant Shares
pursuant to Section 2(e)(i) by the Warrant Share Delivery Date,
then, the Holder will have the right to rescind such
exercise.
iv.
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 the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder a
certificate or the 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)
or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, 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 (A) 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 (1) the
number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to
deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue
times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such
purchase obligation was executed, and (B) 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 (A) 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 and, upon
request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss.
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.
v.
No Fractional Shares or Scrip . No
fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall
be issued upon the exercise of this
5
Warrant. As to any fraction of a share
which 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.
vi.
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.
vii.
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 .
Certain Adjustments .
a)
Stock Dividends and Splits . If the
Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) 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 upon exercise of
this Warrant), (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common
Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including
by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common
Stock into a smaller number of shares or (iv) 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 immediately before such
event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares
of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the
number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be
proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price
of this Warrant shall remain unchanged. Any adjustment
made pursuant to this Section 3(a) sha
