hereinafter set forth, the Holder is entitled, upon surrender of
this Warrant at any time on or after July 2, 2008 and on or

Subscription Form ”) duly executed) at the office of
the Company at 410 17 th Street,
Suite 1850, Denver, Colorado 80202, or such other office in
the United States of which the Company shall notify the Holder
hereof in writing, to purchase from the Company, at the purchase
price hereinafter specified (as adjusted from time to time, the
“ Exercise Price ”), _______ shares (the “
Warrant Shares ”) (as adjusted from time to time) of
the Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share, of the Company (the
“ Common Stock ”). The initial Exercise Price
shall be $6.00 per share.

Payment of the Exercise Price shall be made by check made payable
to the order of the Company or wire transfer of immediately
available funds to a bank account designated by the Company.
4. Limitations on
Exercise . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, the number of Warrant Shares that may be acquired by the
Holder upon any exercise of this Warrant (or otherwise in respect
hereof) shall be limited to the extent necessary to ensure that,
following such exercise (or other issuance), the total number of
shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by the Holder and
its affiliates and any other persons whose beneficial ownership of
Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for
purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended (the “ Exchange Act ”) does not
exceed 4.999% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares

Stock issuable upon such exercise). For such purposes, beneficial
ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of
the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder. Each delivery of a Subscription Form by the Holder will
constitute a representation by the Holder that it has evaluated the
limitation set forth in this Section 4 and determined that
issuance of the full number of Warrant Shares requested in such
Subscription Form is permitted under this Section 4. The
Company’s obligation to issue shares of Common Stock in
excess of the limitation referred to in this Section 4 shall
be suspended (and, except as provided below, shall not terminate or
expire notwithstanding any contrary provisions hereof) until such
time, if any, as such shares of Common Stock may be issued in
compliance with such limitation; provided, that, if, as of 5:30
P.M., New York City time, on the Expiration Date, the Company has
not received written notice that the shares of Common Stock may be
issued in compliance with such limitation, the Company’s
obligation to issue such shares shall terminate. By written notice
to the Company, the Holder may waive the provisions of this
Section 4 but any such waiver will not be effective until the
61 st
day after such notice is delivered to the Company, nor will any
such waiver effect any other Holder.
