and
WHEREAS , the Company desires to grant to Warrantholder,

the Company and Warrantholder agree as follows:
1.
GRANT OF THE
RIGHT TO PURCHASE PREFERRED STOCK .
For the Phase I portion of Equipment
Schedules VL-3 and VL-4 the Company hereby grants to the
Warrantholder, and the Warrantholder is entitled, upon the terms
and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth, to subscribe
to and purchase, from the Company, such number of fully paid and
non-assessable shares of the Company’s Series X
Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”) equal to $125,000
divided by the exercise price equal to $0.85 (“Exercise Price
I”).
For the Phase II portion of
Equipment Schedule VL-4 and if, and only if, the Warrantholder
makes the Phase II portion available thereunder, the Warrantholder
shall be entitled, upon the terms and subject to the conditions
hereinafter set forth, to subscribe to and purchase, from the
Company, such number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of the
Company’s preferred stock equal to $400,000 divided by the
exercise price equal to the price per share of stock sold to

Hereinafter the term Exercise Price shall mean both Exercise Price

(ii) the sale, conveyance disposal, or encumbrance of all or
substantially all of the Company’s property or business or
Company’s merger into or consolidation with any other
corporation (other than a wholly-owned subsidiary corporation) or

Event shall not apply to a merger effected exclusively for the
purpose of changing the domicile of the company or (iii) an
initial public offering of the Company’s Common Stock which
such public offering has been declared effective by the SEC.
In the event that the Next Round is an initial public offering or
Merger Event then the Exercise Price shall be the lesser of

2.
TERM OF THE
WARRANT AGREEMENT .
Except as otherwise provided for
herein, the term of this Warrant Agreement and the right to
purchase Preferred Stock as granted herein shall commence on the
Effective Date and shall be exercisable for a period of
(i) ten (10) years or (ii) five (5) years from
the effective date of the Company’s initial public offering,
whichever is shorter.
Notwithstanding the term of this
Warrant Agreement fixed pursuant to the above paragraph, the right
to purchase Preferred Stock as granted herein shall expire, if not
previously exercised immediately upon the closing of a merger or
consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation when
the Company is not the surviving corporation, or the sale of all or
substantially all of the Company’s properties and assets to
any other person (the “Merger”) provided in which
Warrantholder realizes a value for its shares equal to or greater
than a per share price of at least 3 times the Exercise
Price.
The Company shall notify the
Warrantholder if the Merger is proposed in accordance with the
terms of 8(f) hereof, and if the Company fails to deliver such
written notice, then notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this Warrant Agreement, the rights to purchase the Company’s
Preferred Stock shall not expire until the Company complies with
such notice provisions. Such notice shall also contain such
details of the proposed Merger as are reasonable in the
circumstances. If such closing does not take place, the
Company shall promptly notify the Warrantholder that such proposed
transaction has been terminated, and the Warrantholder may rescind
any exercise of its purchase rights promptly after such notice of
termination of the proposed transaction if the exercise of Warrants
has occurred after the Company notified the Warrantholder that the
Merger was proposed. In the event of such rescission, the
Warrants will continue to be exercisable on the same terms and
conditions contained herein.
