holder of such Shares as of the close of business on the date of

notwithstanding that the certificates representing such Shares
shall not actually have been delivered or that the Share and
Warrant transfer books of the Company shall then be
closed. This Warrant shall be exercisable, at the sole
election of the Warrantholder, either in full or from time to time
in part and, in the event that any certificate evidencing this
Warrant (or any portion thereof) is exercised prior to the
Termination Date with respect to less than all of the Shares
specified therein at any time prior to the Termination Date, a new
certificate of like tenor evidencing the remaining portion of this
Warrant shall be issued by the Company, if so requested by the
Warrantholder.
3.3
Transfer Agent. Upon the
Company’s receipt of a facsimile or original of
Warrantholder’s signed Election to Exercise Warrant, the
Company shall instruct its transfer agent to issue one or more
stock Certificates representing that number of shares of Common
Stock which the Warrantholder is entitled to purchase in accordance
with the terms and conditions of this Warrant and the Election to
Exercise Warrant attached hereto. The transfer agent for

appropriate ledger containing the necessary information with
respect to each Warrant.
3.4
Exercise. This Warrant is exercisable
in whole or in part at the Exercise Price per share of Common Stock
(as defined hereafter) payable hereunder, payable in cash or by
certified or official bank check, by means of tendering this
Warrant Certificate to the Company. Upon surrender of

3.5
Election to Exercise. Such exercise
shall be effectuated by surrendering to the Company, or its
attorney, the Warrants to be converted together with a facsimile or
original of the signed Election to Exercise Warrant which evidences
Warrantholder’s intention to exercise those Warrants
indicated. The date on which the Election to Exercise
Warrant is effective (“Exercise Date”) shall be deemed
to be the date on which the Warrantholder has delivered to the
Company a facsimile or original of the signed Election to Exercise
Warrant, as long as the original Warrants to be exercised are
received by the Company or its designated attorney within five (5)
business days thereafter. As long as the Warrants to be
exercised are received by the Company within five (5) business days
after it receives a facsimile or original of the signed Election to
Exercise Warrant, the Company shall deliver to the Warrantholder,
or per the Warrantholder’s instructions, the shares of Common
Stock within three (3) business days of receipt of the Warrants to
be converted.
3.6
Payment of Interest. Nothing contained in
this Warrant shall be deemed to establish or require the payment of
interest to the Warrantholder.
3.7
Issuance of Common Stock. It shall be
the Company’s responsibility to take all necessary actions
and to bear all such costs to issue the Certificate of Common Stock
as provided herein, including the responsibility and cost for
delivery of an opinion letter to the transfer agent, if so
required. The person in whose name the certificate of
Common Stock is to be registered shall be treated as a shareholder
of record on and after the exercise date. Upon surrender of any
Warrants that are to be converted in part, the Company shall issue
to the Warrantholder new Warrants equal to the unconverted amount,
if so requested by Warrantholder.
3.8
Exercise Default. The Company shall at
all times reserve and have available all Common Stock necessary to
meet exercise of the Warrants by all Warrantholders of the entire
amount of Warrants then outstanding. If, at any time
Warrantholder submits an Election to Exercise Warrant and the
Company does not have sufficient authorized but unissued shares of
Common Stock available to effect, in full, a exercise of the
Warrants (a “Exercise Default”, the date of such
default being referred to herein as the “Exercise Default
Date”), the Company shall issue to the Warrantholder all of
the shares of Common Stock which are available, and the Election to
Exercise Warrant as to any Warrants requested to be converted but
not converted (the “Unconverted Warrants”), upon
Warrantholder’s sole option, may be deemed null and
void. The Company shall provide notice of such Exercise
Default (“Notice of Exercise Default”) to all existing
Warrantholders of outstanding Warrants, by facsimile, within one
(1) business day of such default (with the original
delivered by overnight or two day courier), and the Warrantholder
shall give notice to the Company by facsimile within five (5)
business days of receipt of the original Notice of Exercise Default
(with the original delivered by overnight or two day courier) of
its election to either nullify or confirm the Election to Exercise
Warrant.
3.9
Furnishing of Prospectus. The Company
shall furnish to Warrantholder such number of prospectuses and
other documents incidental to the registration of the shares of
Common Stock underlying the Warrants, including any amendment of or
supplements thereto. Warrantholder shall acknowledge in
writing the receipt, the careful reading, and the understanding
thereof, prior to any exercise under this Section 3.
3.10
Shareholder of Record. Each person in
whose name any certificate for shares of Common Stock shall be
issued shall for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder
of record of the Common Stock represented thereby on the date on
which the Warrant was surrendered and payment of the purchase price
and any applicable taxes was made, irrespective of date of issue or
delivery of such certificate, except that if the date of such
surrender and payment is a date when the Shares transfer books of
the Company are closed, such person shall be deemed to have become
the holder of such Shares on the next succeeding date on which such
Share transfer books are open. The Company shall not
close such Share transfer books at any one time for a period longer
than seven (7) days.
4.
Payment of Taxes.
The Company shall pay all documentary stamp taxes, if any,
attributable to the initial issuance of the Shares; provided,
however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any
tax or taxes which may be payable, (a) with respect to any
secondary transfer of this Warrant or the Shares or (b) as a
result of the issuance of the Shares to any person other than
the Warrantholder, and the Company shall not be required to
issue or deliver any certificate for any Shares unless and
until the person requesting the issuance thereof shall have
paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have
produced evidence that such tax has been paid to the
appropriate taxing authority.
5.
Mutilated or Missing Warrant. In case
the certificate or certificates evidencing this Warrant shall be
mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall, at the
request of the Warrantholder, issue and deliver in exchange and
substitution for and upon cancellation of the mutilated certificate
or certificates, or in lieu of and substitution for the certificate
or certificates lost, stolen or destroyed, a new Warrant
certificate or certificates of like tenor and representing an
equivalent right or interest, but only upon receipt of evidence
satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction of
such Warrant and of a bond of indemnity, if requested, also
satisfactory to the Company in form and amount, and issued at the
applicant’s cost. Applicants for such substitute
Warrant certificate shall also comply with such other reasonable
regulations and pay such other reasonable charges as the Company
may prescribe.
6.
Reservation of Shares. The issuance,
sale and delivery of the Warrants have been duly authorized by all
required corporate action on the part of the Company and when
issued, sold and delivered in accordance with the terms hereof and
thereof for the consideration expressed herein and therein, will be
duly and validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable and
enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to the laws of
bankruptcy and creditors’ rights generally. The
Company shall pay all taxes in respect of the issue
thereof. As a condition precedent to the taking of any
action that would result in the effective purchase price per share
of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant being less than
the par value per share (if such shares of Common Stock then have a
par value), the Company will take such corporate action as may, in
the opinion of its counsel, be necessary in order that the Company
may comply with all its obligations under this Agreement with
regard to the exercise of this Warrant.
7.
Warrant Price. During the Exercise
Period, the price per Share (“Warrant price”) at which
Shares shall be purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall
be Four Dollars and Fifty Cents ($4.50), subject to adjustment
pursuant to Section 8 hereof (“Exercise
