Securities Law Transfer Restrictions By taking and holding this Warrant, the Holder (i) acknowledges that neither this Warrant nor any shares of Common Stock that may be issued upon exercise of this Warrant have been registered under the Securities Act or any applicable state securities or blue sky law (collectively, "Securities Laws"); (ii) agrees not to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of this Warrant, and agrees not to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any such shares of Common Stock without registration unless the sale, transfer or disposition of such shares can be effected without registration and in compliance with the Securities Laws; and (iii) agrees not to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of this Warrant or any portion thereof or interest therein except as otherwise expressly permitted herein. No part of this Warrant or any portion thereof or interest therein may be transferred, whether voluntarily, involuntarily or by operation of law, except to a Permitted Transferee as hereinafter defined. “Permitted Transferee” shall mean a transferee or assignee that (a)(i) is an entity as to which the Holder is the beneficial owner of at least a majority of the equity therein and the Holder has voting control thereover, (ii) is a member of the Holder's family or a trust for the benefit of an individual Holder or (iii) a successor by inheritance or intestate succession to any interest in this Warrant or any portion thereof and (b) accepts by written instrument reasonably acceptable to the Company each of the terms and conditions that govern this Warrant.

Restrictions on Transfer of the Warrant and Shares; Compliance with Securities Laws By acceptance of this Warrant, the Holder agrees to comply with the following:
Certain Conversion Restrictions (A) A Holder may not convert this Debenture or receive shares of Common Stock as payment of interest hereunder to the extent such conversion or receipt of such interest payment would result in the Holder, together with any affiliate thereof, beneficially owning (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of 4.9% of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, including shares issuable upon conversion of, and payment of interest on, this Debenture held by such Holder after application of this Section. Since the Holder will not be obligated to report to the Obligor the number of shares of Common Stock it may hold at the time of a conversion hereunder, unless the conversion at issue would result in the issuance of shares of Common Stock in excess of 4.9% of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock without regard to any other shares which may be beneficially owned by the Holder or an affiliate thereof, the Holder shall have the authority and obligation to determine whether the restriction contained in this Section will limit any particular conversion hereunder and to the extent that the Holder determines that the limitation contained in this Section applies, the determination of which portion of the principal amount of this Debenture is convertible shall be the responsibility and obligation of the Holder. If the Holder has delivered a Conversion Notice for a principal amount of this Debenture that, without regard to any other shares that the Holder or its affiliates may beneficially own, would result in the issuance in excess of the permitted amount hereunder, the Obligor shall notify the Holder of this fact and shall honor the conversion for the maximum principal amount permitted to be converted on such Conversion Date in accordance with the periods described in Section 3(a)(i)(A) and, at the option of the Holder, either retain any principal amount tendered for conversion in excess of the permitted amount hereunder for future conversions or return such excess principal amount to the Holder. The provisions of this Section may be waived by a Holder (but only as to itself and not to any other Holder) upon not less than 65 days prior notice to the Obligor. Other Holders shall be unaffected by any such waiver.
General Restrictions The registered Holder of this Purchase Warrant agrees by his, her or its acceptance hereof, that such Holder will not: (a) sell, transfer, assign, pledge or hypothecate this Purchase Warrant for a period of one hundred eighty (180) days following the Effective Date to anyone other than: (i) Aegis Capital Corp.

On and after 180 days after the Effective Date, transfers to others may be made subject to compliance with or exemptions from applicable securities laws. In order to make any permitted assignment, the Holder must deliver to the Company the assignment form attached hereto duly executed and completed, together with the Purchase Warrant and payment of all transfer taxes, if any, payable in connection therewith. The Company shall within five (5) Business Days transfer this Purchase Warrant on the books of the Company and shall execute and deliver a new Purchase Warrant or Purchase Warrants of like tenor to the appropriate assignee(s) expressly evidencing the right to purchase the aggregate number of Shares purchasable hereunder or such portion of such number as shall be contemplated by any such assignment.
