proper form for exercise, and subject to the Holder’s
compliance with all requirements of this Warrant for the exercise
hereof, the Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of
the Warrant Stock issuable upon such exercise, notwithstanding that
the stock transfer books of the Company shall then be closed or
that certificates representing such securities shall not then be
actually delivered to the Holder; provided, however, that no
exercise of this Warrant shall be effective, and the Company shall
have no obligation to issue any Warrant Stock to the Holder upon
any attempted exercise of this Warrant, unless the Holder shall

reasonably satisfactory to the Company, appropriate representations
so as to provide the Company reasonable assurances that the
securities issuable upon exercise may be issued without violation
of the registration requirements of the Securities Act and
applicable state securities laws, including without limitation
representations that the exercising Holder is an “accredited
investor” as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act
and that the Holder is familiar with the Company and its business
and financial condition and has had an opportunity to ask questions
and receive documents relating thereto to his reasonable
satisfaction.
2.
Reservation of Shares. The Company will reserve for issuance and delivery upon
exercise of this Warrant all shares of Warrant Stock. All such

assignee named in such instrument of assignment and this Warrant
shall promptly be canceled. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence
reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or

indemnification by the Holder, and upon surrender and cancellation
of this Warrant, if mutilated, the Company shall execute and
deliver a replacement Warrant of like tenor and date.
