in whole or in part.
The
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the

concurrently herewith (the “ Registration Rights
Agreement ”).

be exercised at any time or from time to time during the period
commencing at 10:00 A.M. Central Time on October 5, 2007, and
ending at 5:00 P.M. Central Time on October 4, 2017 (the

2.
Procedure for
Exercise; Effect of Exercise .
(a)
Cash
Exercise . This Warrant may
be exercised, in whole or in part, by the Holder during normal
business hours on any business day during the Exercise Period by
(i) the presentation and surrender of this Warrant to the Company
at its principal executive office along with a duly executed Notice
of Exercise (in the form attached hereto) specifying the number of
Warrant Shares to be purchased, and (ii) delivery of payment to the
Company of the Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares
specified in the Notice of Exercise by cash, wire transfer of
immediately available funds to a bank account specified by the
Company, or by certified or bank cashier’s check.
(b)
Cashless
Exercise . This Warrant may
also be exercised by the Holder through a cashless exercise, as
described in this Section 2(b). In such case, this Warrant may be
exercised, in whole or in part, by the Holder during normal
business hours on any business day during the Exercise Period by
the presentation and surrender of this Warrant to the Company at
its principal office along with a duly executed Notice of Exercise
specifying the number of Warrant Shares to be applied to such
exercise. The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon
exercise of this Warrant pursuant to this Section 2(b) shall equal
the value of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being canceled)
computed as of the date of delivery of this Warrant to the Company
using the following formula:
| X
|
|
=
|
|
the number of
shares of Common Stock to be issued to Holder under this
|
| |
|
|
|
Section
2(b); |
| Y
|
|
=
|
|
the number of
Warrant Shares identified in the Notice of Exercise as
|
| |
|
|
|
being applied to
the subject exercise; |
| A
|
|
=
|
|
the Current Market
Price on such date; and |
| B
|
|
=
|
|
the Exercise Price
on such date |
For purposes of
this Section 2(b), Current Market Price shall have the definition
provided in Section 6(g).
The Company
acknowledges and agrees that this Warrant was issued on the date
set forth at the end of this Warrant. Consequently, the Company
acknowledges and agrees that, if the
2
Holder conducts a
cashless exercise pursuant to this Section 2(b), the period during
which the Holder held this Warrant may, for purposes of Rule 144
promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
“ Securities
Act ”), be
“tacked” to the period during which the Holder holds
the Warrant Shares received upon such cashless exercise.
Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Holder may conduct a cashless exercise pursuant to
this Section 2(b) only after the first anniversary of the initial
issuance date of this Warrant, and then only in the event that a
registration statement covering the resale of the Warrant Shares is
not then effective at the time that the Holder wishes to conduct
such cashless exercise.
(c)
Company’s
Response; Effect of Exercise . Upon receipt by
the Company of a copy of a Notice of Exercise (including a copy
received via facsimile), the Company shall immediately send to the
Holder, via facsimile, a confirmation of receipt of such Notice of
Exercise. Upon receipt by the Company of this Warrant and the
original Notice of Exercise, together with proper payment of the
Exercise Price, as provided in this Section 2, the Company or its
designated transfer agent (the “ Transfer
Agent ”), as
applicable, shall, within three (3) business days following the
date of receipt by the Company of the original Notice of Exercise
(so long as this Warrant and the proper payment of the Exercise
Price are received by the Company on or before such third business
day), issue and deliver to the Depository Trust Company
(“ DTC
”)
account on the Holder’s behalf via the Deposit Withdrawal
Agent Commission System (“ DWAC
”)
as specified in the Notice of Exercise, registered in the name of
the Holder or its designee, for the number of shares of Common
Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled. Notwithstanding the
foregoing to the contrary, the Company or its Transfer Agent shall
only be obligated to issue and deliver the shares to the DTC on the
Holder’s behalf via DWAC if (A) a registration statement
covering the resale of the Warrant Shares has been declared
effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, (B) the
exercise of this Warrant is in connection with a sale, and (C) the
Holder has complied with the applicable prospectus delivery
requirements. If this Warrant should be exercised in part only, the
Company shall, upon surrender of this Warrant for cancellation,
execute and deliver a new Warrant evidencing the right of the
Holder to purchase the balance of the Warrant Shares subject to
purchase hereunder. Upon receipt by the Company of this Warrant and
a Notice of Exercise, together with proper payment of the Exercise
Price, as provided in this Section 2, the Company agrees that such
Warrant Shares shall be deemed to be issued to the Holder as the
record holder of such Warrant Shares as of the close of business on
the date on which this Warrant has been surrendered and payment has
been made for such Warrant Shares in accordance with this Warrant
and the Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the
Warrant Shares, notwithstanding that the stock transfer books of
the Company shall then be closed or that certificates representing
such Warrant Shares shall not then be actually delivered to the
Holder.
3.
Registration of
Warrants; Transfer of Warrants . Any Warrants
issued upon the transfer or exercise in part of this Warrant shall
be numbered and shall be registered in a Warrant Register as they
are issued. The Company shall be entitled to treat the registered
holder of any Warrant on the Warrant Register as the owner in fact
thereof for all purposes and shall not be bound to recognize any
equitable or other claim to or interest in such Warrant on the part
of any other person, and shall not be liable for any registration
or transfer of Warrants which are registered or to be registered in
the name of a fiduciary or the nominee of a fiduciary unless
made
3
with the actual
knowledge that a fiduciary or nominee is committing a breach of
trust in requesting such registration or transfer, or with the
knowledge of such facts that its participation therein amounts to
bad faith. This Warrant shall be transferable only on the books of
the Company upon delivery thereof duly endorsed by the Holder or by
its duly authorized attorney or representative, or accompanied by
proper evidence of succession, assignment, or authority to
transfer. In all cases of transfer by an attorney, executor,
administrator, guardian, or other legal representative, duly
authenticated evidence of his or its authority shall be produced.
Upon any registration of transfer, the Company shall deliver a new
Warrant or Warrants to the person entitled thereto. This Warrant
may be exchanged, at the option of the Holder thereof, for another
Warrant, or other Warrants of different denominations, of like
tenor and representing in the aggregate the right to purchase a
like number of Warrant Shares, upon surrender to the Company or its
duly authorized agent.

transferable except pursuant to the proviso contained in the

profit-sharing fund established and maintained for its employees or
for the employees of any affiliate, (iii) from a nominee to any of
the aforementioned persons as beneficial owner of this Warrant or
such Warrant Shares, (iv) to a qualified institutional buyer, so
long as such transfer is effected in compliance with Rule 144A
under the Securities Act, or (v) to an accredited investor (as such
term is defined in Regulation D under the Securities
Act).
(b) The
Holder, by its acceptance hereof, agrees that prior to any transfer
of this Warrant or of the related Warrant Shares (other than as
permitted by Section 4(a) hereof or pursuant to a registration
under the Securities Act), the Holder will give written notice to
the Company of its intention to effect such transfer, together with
an opinion of such counsel for the Holder, to the effect that the
proposed transfer of this Warrant and/or such Warrant Shares may be
effected without registration under the Securities Act. Upon
delivery of such notice and opinion to the Company, the Holder
shall be entitled to transfer this Warrant and/or such Warrant
Shares in accordance with the intended method of disposition
specified in the notice to the Company.
