aggregate Exercise Price of __________ dollars ($______).
3. Exercise
Period . The Warrant may be exercised during the period
("Exercise Period") commencing upon the date of this Agreement and
ending on the earlier of (i) three years from the date of this
Agreement, or (ii) the date the Warrant is redeemed by the Company

4. Method of
Exercise . The Warrant shall be exercised in whole at any
time, or in part from time to time, by delivery of the Exercise
Form attached hereto duly executed and directed to the Company at
its principal place of business accompanied by certified funds
payable to the Company in the amount of the appropriate Exercise
Price. Upon receipt of these required documents and the

certificate evidencing the number of whole shares to which the
Holder may be entitled, and pay to the Holder cash in an amount

Number of Shares and Class of Capital Stock Purchasable .
The number of Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant
shall be subject to adjustment from time to time, as provided in

action if Holder had exercised the Warrant immediately prior to
such action:
(i)
subdivides its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater

consolidation, merger or transfer of assets, which reclassifies or
changes its outstanding Common Stock, the successor corporation (or
corporation controlling the successor corporation of the Company,
as the case may be) shall assume the Company's obligations as set
forth herein. Upon consummation of such transaction, the
Warrants shall automatically become exercisable for the kind and
amount of securities and/or cash which the Holder of the Warrants
would have owned immediately after the consolidation, merger or
transfer if the Holder had exercised each and every Warrant
immediately before the effective date of such transaction. As
a condition to the consummation of such transaction, the Company
shall arrange for the person or entity obligated to issue
securities upon exercise of the Warrants to, concurrently with the
consummation of such transaction, assume the Company's
