• Issuance of Warrants and Execution And DELIVERY OF WARRANT CERTIFICATES

• Issuance of Warrants and Execution and Delivery of Warrant Certificates (a) All Warrant Certificates shall be in registered form, shall contain such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as are required or permitted by this Agreement and may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification or designation and such legends or endorsements placed thereon as may, consistently herewith, be determined by a duly authorized representative of the Company (each, an "Authorized Person"), as evidenced conclusively by the execution of such Warrant Certificates and as are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, or as may be required to comply with any law or with any rule or regulation. (b) The Warrant Agent shall, upon receipt of the Warrant Certificates duly executed on behalf of the Company, countersign one or more global warrant certificates (the "Global Warrant Certificates") evidencing the Warrants and shall, subject to paragraph (a) above, deliver such Global Warrant Certificates to or upon the written order of the Company. Subsequent to such original issuance of the Warrant Certificates, the Warrant Agent shall countersign Warrant Certificates only if such Warrant Certificates are issued in exchange or substitution for one or more previously countersigned Warrant Certificates, as the case may be, or, in connection with their transfer, as hereinafter provided or as provided in Section 6(a) or Section 18, but subject to the provisions of Section 7. A Global Warrant Certificate shall be, and shall remain, subject to the provisions of this Agreement until such time as all of the Warrants evidenced thereby shall have been duly exercised or shall have expired or been canceled in accordance with the terms thereof. No Warrant Certificate shall be valid for any purpose, and no Warrant evidenced thereby shall be exercisable, until such Warrant Certificate has been countersigned by the manual signature of the Warrant Agent. Such signature by the Warrant Agent upon any Warrant Certificate executed by the Company shall be conclusive evidence that such Warrant Certificate so countersigned has been duly issued hereunder. (c) Each Warrant Certificate shall be signed on behalf of the Company by an Authorized Person. Such signature may be the manual or facsimile signature of such persons and may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the Warrant Certificates. In case any Authorized Person who shall have signed any of the Warrant Certificates either manually or by facsimile signature shall cease to be an Authorized Person, before the Warrant Certificates shall have been countersigned and delivered by the Warrant Agent, such Warrant Certificates may be countersigned and delivered notwithstanding that a person who signed such Warrant Certificate ceased to be such an Authorized Person, and any Warrant Certificate may be signed on behalf of the Company by such persons as, at the actual date of the execution of such Warrant Certificate, shall be Authorized Persons, although at the date of the execution of this Agreement any such person was not such an Authorized Person.

• Warrants and Issuance of Warrant Certificates (a) A Warrant initially shall entitle the Registered Holder thereof to purchase one Warrant Share in accordance with the terms hereof, subject to modification and adjustment as provided in Section 8. (b) Warrant Certificates in the form of Exhibit A annexed hereto representing the number of Warrants purchased by the Registered Holder shall be delivered to the Registered Holder. (c) From time to time, up to the Warrant Expiration Date, the Transfer Agent shall countersign and deliver stock certificates in required whole number denominations representing the Warrant Shares issuable, subject to adjustment as described herein, upon the exercise of Warrants in accordance with this Agreement. (d) From time to time, up to the Warrant Expiration Date, the Company shall countersign and deliver Warrant Certificates in required whole number denominations to the persons entitled thereto in connection with any transfer or exchange permitted under this Agreement; provided that no Warrant Certificates shall be issued except (i) those initially issued hereunder, (ii) those issued on or after the Initial Exercise Date, upon the exercise of fewer than all Warrants represented by any Warrant Certificate, to evidence any unexercised Warrants held by the exercising Registered Holder, (iii) those issued upon any transfer or exchange pursuant to Section 6; (iv) those issued in replacement of lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant Certificates pursuant to Section 7; and (v) those issued at the option of the Company, in such form as may be approved by its Board of Directors, to reflect any adjustment or change in the Purchase Price or the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants.

• Issuance of Warrants [If Warrants alone —Upon issuance, each Warrant Certificate shall evidence one or more Warrants.] [If Other Securities and Warrants —Warrant Certificates will be issued in connection with the issuance of the Other Securities but shall be separately transferable and each Warrant Certificate shall evidence one or more Warrants.] Each Warrant evidenced thereby shall represent the right, subject to the provisions contained herein and therein, to purchase one Warrant Security. [

• Form and Execution of Warrant Certificates (a) The Warrant Certificates shall be substantially in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit A (the provisions of which are hereby incorporated herein) and may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification or designation and such legends, summaries or endorsements printed, lithographed or engraved thereon as the Company may deem appropriate and as are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, or as may be required to comply with any law or with any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with any rule or regulation of any stock exchange on which the Warrants may be listed, or to conform to usage. The Warrant Certificates shall be dated the date of issuance thereof (whether upon initial issuance, transfer, exchange or in lieu of mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed Warrant Certificates) and issued in registered form. Warrants shall be numbered serially with the letter W on the Warrants. (b) Warrant Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer, President or any Vice President and by its Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer or its Secretary or an Assistant Secretary, by manual signatures or by facsimile signatures printed thereon, and shall have imprinted thereon a facsimile of the Company's seal. Warrant Certificates shall be manually countersigned by the Warrant Agent and shall not be valid for any purpose unless so countersigned. In case any officer of the Company who shall have signed any of the Warrant Certificates shall cease to be such officer of the Company before the date of issuance of the Warrant Certificates or before countersignature by the Warrant Agent and issue and delivery thereof, such Warrant Certificates, nevertheless, may be countersigned by the Warrant Agent, issued and delivered with the same force and effect as though the person who signed such Warrant Certificates had not ceased to be such officer of the Company. After countersignature by the Warrant Agent, Warrant Certificates shall be delivered by the Warrant Agent to the Registered Holder promptly and without further action by the Company, except as otherwise provided by Section 4(a) hereof.

• Issuance of Warrant The issuance of the Warrant is duly authorized and will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and free from all taxes, liens, claims and encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof and shall not be subject to preemptive rights or other similar rights of shareholders of the Company and will not impose personal liability upon the holder thereof.

• Reissuance of Warrants Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of any indemnification undertaking by the Holder to the Company in customary form and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Holder a new Warrant representing the right to purchase the Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant (subject to the provisions of Section 1(f)).

• Execution and Delivery of Warrant Certificates Each Warrant Certificate, whenever issued, shall be in registered form substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A hereto, shall be dated the date of its countersignature by the Warrant Agent and may have such letters, numbers, or other marks of identification or designation and such legends or endorsements printed, lithographed or engraved thereon as the officers of the Company executing the same may approve (execution thereof to be conclusive evidence of such approval) and as are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, or as may be required to comply with any law or with any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with any rule or regulation of any securities exchange on which the Warrants may be listed, or to conform to usage. The Warrant Certificates shall be signed on behalf of the Company by any of its present or future chief executive officers, presidents, senior vice presidents, vice presidents, chief financial officers, chief legal officers, treasurers, assistant treasurers, controllers, assistant controllers, secretaries or assistant secretaries under its corporate seal reproduced thereon. Such signatures may be manual or facsimile signatures of such authorized officers and may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the Warrant Certificates. The seal of the Company may be in the form of a facsimile thereof and may be impressed, affixed, imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the Warrant Certificates. No Warrant Certificate shall be valid for any purpose, and no Warrant evidenced thereby shall be exercisable, until such Warrant Certificate has been countersigned by the manual signature of the Warrant Agent. Such signature by the Warrant Agent upon any Warrant Certificate executed by the Company shall be conclusive evidence that the Warrant Certificate so countersigned has been duly issued hereunder. In case any officer of the Company who shall have signed any of the Warrant Certificates either manually or by facsimile signature shall cease to be such officer before the Warrant Certificates so signed shall have been countersigned and delivered by the Warrant Agent, such Warrant Certificates may be countersigned and delivered notwithstanding that the person who signed such Warrant Certificates ceased to be such officer of the Company; and any Warrant Certificate may be signed on behalf of the Company by such persons as, at the actual date of the execution of such Warrant Certificate, shall be the proper officers of the Company, although at the date of the execution of this Agreement any such person was not such officer.

• Terms and Exercise of Warrants (a) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Warrants shall be exercisable and each Holder shall have the right, which may be exercised at any time from and including October 1, 2009 and prior to or on November 30, 2009 (the “Expiration Date”), unless extended or accelerated per Section 2(c) below, to purchase from the Bank the number of Shares which the Holder may at the time be entitled to purchase on exercise of such Warrants, as identified on the Master Warrant Certificate. The Bank shall provide each Holder with a warrant exercise form (the "Exercise Form") prior to or contemporaneous with the commencement of the warrant exercise period. (b) Warrants may only be exercised for the purchase of whole Shares. Warrants may be exercised upon delivery to the Bank of a completed Exercise Form and upon payment to the Bank of the Warrant Exercise Price (as defined herein), for the number of Shares in respect of which such Warrants are then exercised. Payment of the aggregate Warrant Exercise Price shall be made by certified or official bank check, wire transfer or debit from an account at the Bank. Upon such delivery of the Exercise Form and payment of the Warrant Exercise Price as aforesaid, the Bank shall issue and cause to be delivered as promptly as possible to or upon the written order of the Holder, and in such name or names as the Holder may designate, a certificate or certificates for the number of full Shares so purchased upon the exercise of such Warrants. Such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have been issued and any person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such Shares as of the date of the delivery of the Exercise Form and payment of the Warrant Exercise Price, as aforesaid. (c) The Bank may accelerate or extend the Expiration Date at any time, in its discretion to a date not earlier than 60 days following mailing of notice. Notice of the acceleration or extension, as applicable, shall contain the accelerated Expiration Date (the “Accelerated Expiration Date”) or the extended Expiration date (the "Extended Expiration Date"), as applicable.

• Issuance of Warrant Shares (a) The Warrant Agent shall on the Trading Day following the Exercise Date of any Warrant, advise the Company, the transfer agent and registrar for the Company’s Common Stock, in respect of (i) the number of Warrant Shares indicated on the Notice of Exercise as issuable upon such exercise with respect to such exercised Warrants, (ii) the instructions of the Holder or Participant, as the case may be, provided to the Warrant Agent with respect to the delivery of the Warrant Shares and the number of Warrants that remain outstanding after such exercise and (iii) such other information as the Company or such transfer agent and registrar shall reasonably request. (b) Upon the Warrant Agent’s receipt, at or prior to the close of business on the Expiration Date, of the executed Notice of Exercise, accompanied by payment of the Exercise Price pursuant to Section 2(b) of the Warrant Certificate (other than in the case of a Cashless Exercise), the Warrant Agent shall cause the Warrant Shares purchased hereunder to be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by Holder or (B) this Warrant is being exercised via cashless exercise, and otherwise by physical delivery of a certificate, registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise no later than the Warrant Share Delivery Date.
