Options, Warrants, etc In the event that the Company shall issue rights, options or warrants to any person or persons who are at the time of such issuance are stockholders of the Company, entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares (or securities convertible or exchangeable into shares) at a price per share (or having a conversion or exchange price per share if a security convertible or exchangeable into shares) less than the $0.20 per share on the record date for such issuance (or the date of issuance, if there is no record date), the number of Consultant Shares on and after such record date (or issuance date, as the case may be) shall be determined by multiplying the number of Consultant Shares immediately prior to such record date (or issuance date, as the case may be) by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the number of Consultant Shares outstanding on such record date (or issuance date, as the case may be) plus the number of Shares which the total offering price of the total number of such shares so as to be offered (or the aggregate initial exchange or conversion price of the exchangeable or convertible securities so to be offered) would purchase at such $0.20 on such record date (or issuance date, as the case may be) and of which the denominator shall be the number of Consultant Shares outstanding on such record date (or issuance date, as the case may be). Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such an issuance occurs; and in the event that such rights, options, warrants, or convertible or exchangeable securities are not so issued or expire or cease to be convertible or exchangeable before they are exercised, converted, or exchanged (as the case may be), then the Consultant Shares shall again be adjusted to be the number of Consultant Shares that would then be in effect if such issuance had not occurred, but such subsequent adjustment shall not affect the number of Consultant Shares issued prior to the date such subsequent adjustment is made.
