(b) To the extent Stockholder is, as of the date hereof, party to a contract or agreement that requires Stockholder to Transfer Subject Securities to another person or entity (excluding a contract or agreement pledging Subject Securities to Parent), Stockholder will not effect any such Transfer unless and until the transferee agrees to be bound by and executes an agreement in the form of this Agreement with respect to the Subject Securities to be Transferred. Nothing herein shall prohibit Stockholder from exercising (in accordance with the terms of the option or warrant, as applicable) any option or warrant Stockholder may hold; provided that the securities acquired upon such exercise shall be deemed Subject Securities and Shares hereunder.

For the purposes of this paragraph, "immediate family" shall mean spouse, lineal descendant, father, mother, brother or sister of the transferor.

• Adjustments and Other Rights The Exercise Price and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows; provided, that if more than one subsection of this Section 13 is applicable to a single event, the subsection shall be applied that produces the largest adjustment and no single event shall cause an adjustment under more than one subsection of this Section 13 so as to result in duplication:

• Conflicting Agreements and Other Matters Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to any contract or agreement or subject to any charter or other corporate restriction which materially and adversely affects its business, property or assets, or financial condition. Neither the execution nor delivery of this Agreement or the Notes, nor the offering, issuance and sale of the Notes, nor fulfillment of nor compliance with the terms and provisions hereof and of the Notes will conflict with, or result in a breach of the terms, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in any violation of, or result in the creation of any Lien upon any of the properties or assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to, the charter or by-laws of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, any award of any arbitrator or any agreement (including any agreement with stockholders), instrument, order, judgment, decree, statute, law, rule or regulation to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is subject.
