STOCK
PURCHASE WARRANT
THIS
CERTIFIES THAT, for
value
received, New Millennium Capital Partners II, LLC or its registered assigns,
is
entitled to purchase from Haystar Services and Technology,
Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), at any time or from time to
time during the period specified in Paragraph 2 hereof, 135,000 fully paid
and nonassessable shares of the Company’s Common Stock, no par value per share
(the “Common Stock”), at an exercise price per share equal to
[$
] (the “Exercise Price”); provided, however, that such number of shares of
Common Stock shall not exceed an amount equal to sixteen (16) shares of Common
Stock for each One Dollar ($1.00) of principal amount advanced under the
callable Secured Note dated January 25, 2007 by the holder thereof, who is
the
initial holder of this Stock Purchase Warrant. The term “Warrant
Shares,” as used herein, refers to the shares of Common Stock purchasable
hereunder. The Warrant Shares and the Exercise Price are subject to
adjustment as provided in Paragraph 4 hereof. The term “Warrants”
means this Warrant and the other warrants issued pursuant to that certain
Securities Purchase Agreement, dated January 25, 2007, by and among the Company
and the Buyers listed on the execution page thereof (the “Securities Purchase
Agreement”).
This
Warrant is subject to the following terms, provisions, and
conditions:
1. Manner
of Exercise; Issuance of Certificates; Payment for
Shares.
Subject
to
the provisions hereof, this Warrant may be exercised by the holder hereof,
in
whole or in part, by the surrender of this Warrant, together with a completed
exercise agreement in the form attached hereto (the “Exercise Agreement”), to
the Company during normal business hours on any business day at the Company’s
principal executive offices (or such other office or agency of the Company
as it
may designate by notice to the holder hereof), and upon (i) payment to the
Company in cash, by certified or official bank check or by wire transfer
for the account of the Company of the Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares
specified in the Exercise Agreement or (ii) if the resale of the Warrant Shares
by the holder is not then registered pursuant to an effective registration
statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”),
delivery to the Company of a written notice of an election to effect a “Cashless
Exercise” (as defined in Section 11(c) below) for the Warrant Shares specified
in the Exercise Agreement. The Warrant Shares so purchased shall be
deemed to be issued to the holder hereof or such holder’s designee, as the
record owner of such shares, as of the close of business on the date on which
this Warrant shall have been surrendered, the completed Exercise Agreement
shall
have been delivered, and payment shall have been made for such shares as
set forth above. Certificates for the Warrant Shares so
purchased, representing the aggregate number of shares specified in the Exercise
Agreement, shall be delivered to the holder hereof within a reasonable time,
not
exceeding three (3) business days, after this Warrant shall have been so
exercised. The certificates so delivered shall be in such
denominations as may be requested by the holder hereof and shall be registered
in the name of such holder or such other name as shall be designated by such
holder. If this Warrant shall have been exercised only in part, then,
unless this Warrant has expired, the Company shall, at its expense, at the
time
of delivery of such certificates, deliver to the holder a new Warrant
representing the number of shares with respect to which this Warrant shall
not
then have been exercised. In addition to all other available remedies
at law or in equity, if the Company fails to deliver certificates for the
Warrant Shares within three (3) business days after this Warrant is exercised,
then the Company shall pay to the holder in cash a penalty (the “Penalty”) equal
to 2% of the number of Warrant Shares that the holder is entitled to multiplied
by the Market Price (as hereinafter defined) for each day that the Company
fails
to deliver certificates for the Warrant Shares. For example, if the
holder is entitled to 100,000 Warrant Shares and the Market Price is $2.00,
then
the Company shall pay to the holder $4,000 for each day that the Company fails
to deliver certificates for the Warrant Shares. The Penalty shall be
paid to the holder by the fifth day of the month following the month in which
it
has accrued.
Notwithstanding
anything in this Warrant to the contrary, in no event shall the holder of this
Warrant be entitled to exercise a number of Warrants (or portions thereof)
in
excess of the number of Warrants (or portions thereof) upon exercise of which
the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the
holder and its affiliates (other than shares of Common Stock which may be deemed
beneficially owned through the ownership of the unexercised Warrants and the
unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company
(including the Notes (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement)) subject
to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained
herein) and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise
of
the Warrants (or portions thereof) with respect to which the determination
described herein is being made, would result in beneficial ownership by the
holder and its affiliates of more than 4.999% of the outstanding shares of
Common Stock. For purposes of the immediately preceding sentence,
beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of
the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Regulation 13D-G thereunder,
except as otherwise provided in clause (i) of the preceding
sentence. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
the limitation on exercise of this Warrant set forth herein may not be amended
without (i) the written consent of the holder hereof and the Company and (ii)
the approval of a majority of shareholders of the Company.

2. Period
of Exercise.
This
Warrant is exercisable at any time or from time to time on or after
the
date on which this Warrant is issued and delivered pursuant to the
terms
of the Securities Purchase Agreement and before 6:00 p.m., New York,
New
York time on the fifth (5th)
anniversary
of the date of issuance (the “Exercise
Period”).
|
3. Certain
Agreements of the Company.
The
Company hereby covenants and agrees as
follows:
|
(a) Shares
to be Fully Paid. All Warrant Shares
will, upon issuance in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, be validly
issued, fully paid, and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens, and
charges with respect to the issue thereof.
(b) Reservation
of Shares. Subject to the Stockholder
Approval (as defined in Section 4(m) of the Securities Purchase Agreement),
during the Exercise Period, the Company shall at all times have authorized,
and
reserved for the purpose of issuance upon exercise of this Warrant, a
sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the exercise of
this Warrant.
(c) Listing. The
Company shall promptly secure the listing of the shares of Common Stock issuable
upon exercise of the Warrant upon each national securities exchange or automated
quotation system, if any, upon which shares of Common Stock are then listed
(subject to official notice of issuance upon exercise of this Warrant) and
shall
maintain, so long as any other shares of Common Stock shall be so listed, such
listing of all shares of Common Stock from time to time issuable upon the
exercise of this Warrant; and the Company shall so list on each national
securities exchange or automated quotation system, as the case may be, and
shall
maintain such listing of, any other shares of capital stock of the Company
issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant if and so long as any shares of
the
same class shall be listed on such national securities exchange or automated
quotation system.
(d) Certain
Actions Prohibited. The Company will
not, by amendment of its charter or through any reorganization,
transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of
securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance
or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed by it hereunder,
but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the
provisions of this Warrant and in the taking of all such action as may
reasonably be requested by the holder of this Warrant in order to protect the
exercise privilege of the holder of this Warrant against dilution or other
impairment, consistent with the tenor and purpose of this
Warrant. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Company (i) will not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock
receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then
in
effect, and (ii) will take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate
in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and
nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this
Warrant.
(e) Successors
and Assigns. This Warrant will be
binding upon any entity succeeding to the Company by merger, consolidation,
or
acquisition of all or substantially all the Company’s assets.
-3-
4. Antidilution
Provisions.
During
the Exercise Period, the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares shall
be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Paragraph
4.
In
the
event that any adjustment of the Exercise Price as required herein results
in a
fraction of a cent, such Exercise Price shall be rounded up to the nearest
cent.
(a) Adjustment
of Exercise Price and Number of Shares upon Issuance of Common
Stock. Except as otherwise provided in
Paragraphs 4(c) and 4(e) hereof, if and whenever on or after the date of
issuance of this Warrant, the Company issues or sells, or in accordance with
Paragraph 4(b) hereof is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of Common
Stock for no consideration or for a consideration per share (before deduction
of
reasonable expenses or commissions or underwriting discounts or allowances
in
connection therewith) less than the Market Price on the date of issuance (a
“Dilutive Issuance”), then immediately upon the Dilutive Issuance, the Exercise
Price will be reduced to a price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price
in
effect immediately prior to the Dilutive Issuance by a fraction, (i) the
numerator of which is an amount equal to the sum of (x) the number of shares
of
Common Stock actually outstanding immediately prior to the Dilutive Issuance,
plus (y) the quotient of the aggregate consideration, calculated as set forth
in
Paragraph 4(b) hereof, received by the Company upon such Dilutive Issuance
divided by the Market Price in effect immediately prior to the Dilutive
Issuance, and (ii) the denominator of which is the total number of shares of
Common Stock Deemed Outstanding (as defined below) immediately after the
Dilutive Issuance.
(b) Effect
on Exercise Price of Certain
Events. For purposes of determining the
adjusted Exercise Price under Paragraph 4(a) hereof, the following will be
applicable:
(i) Issuance
of Rights or Options. If the Company in
any manner issues or grants any warrants, rights or options, whether or not
immediately exercisable, to subscribe for or to purchase Common Stock or other
securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock (“Convertible
Securities”) (such warrants, rights and options to purchase Common Stock or
Convertible Securities are hereinafter referred to as “Options”) and the price
per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such Options
is less than the Market Price on the date of issuance or grant of such Options,
then the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the
exercise of all such Options will, as of the date of the issuance or grant
of
such Options, be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold
by
the Company for such price per share. For purposes of the preceding
sentence, the “price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the
exercise of such Options” is determined by dividing (i) the total amount, if
any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issuance
or
granting of all such Options, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional
consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the exercise of all such
Options, plus, in the case of Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise
of such Options, the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration
payable upon the conversion or exchange thereof at the time such Convertible
Securities first become convertible or exchangeable, by (ii) the maximum total
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of all such Options
(assuming full conversion of Convertible Securities, if
applicable). No further adjustment to the Exercise Price will be made
upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon the exercise of such Options
or upon the conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities issuable upon
exercise of such Options.
-4-
(ii) Issuance
of Convertible Securities. If the
Company in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities, whether or
not
immediately convertible (other than where the same are issuable upon the
exercise of Options) and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable
upon such conversion or exchange is less than the Market Price on the date
of
issuance, then the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable
upon
the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities will, as of the
date of the issuance of such Convertible Securities, be deemed to be outstanding
and to have been issued and sold by the Company for such price per
share. For the purposes of the preceding sentence, the “price per
share for which Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion or exchange” is
determined by dividing (i) the total amount, if any, received or receivable
by
the Company as consideration for the issuance or sale of all such Convertible
Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration,
if
any, payable to the Company upon the conversion or exchange thereof at the
time
such Convertible Securities first become convertible or exchangeable, by (ii)
the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion
or exchange of all such Convertible Securities. No further adjustment
to the Exercise Price will be made upon the actual issuance of such Common
Stock
upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.
(iii) Change
in Option Price or Conversion Rate. If
there is a change at any time in (i) the amount of additional consideration
payable to the Company upon the exercise of any Options; (ii) the amount of
additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the conversion
or
exchange of any Convertible Securities; or (iii) the rate at which any
Convertible Securities are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock
(other than under or by reason of provisions designed to protect against
dilution), the Exercise Price in effect at the time of such change will be
readjusted to the Exercise Price which would have been in effect at such time
had such Options or Convertible Securities still outstanding provided for such
changed additional consideration or changed conversion rate, as the case may
be,
at the time initially granted, issued or sold.
(iv) Treatment
of Expired Options and Unexercised Convertible
Securities. If, in any case, the total
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of any Option or upon
conversion or exchange of any Convertible Securities is not, in fact, issued
and
the rights to exercise such Option or to convert or exchange such Convertible
Securities shall have expired or terminated, the Exercise Price then in effect
will be readjusted to the Exercise Price which would have been in effect at
the
time of such expiration or termination had such Option or Convertible
Securities, to the extent outstanding immediately prior to such expiration
or
termination (other than in respect of the actual number of shares of Common
Stock issued upon exercise or conversion thereof), never been
issued.
(v) Calculation
of Consideration Received. If any
Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued, granted or sold
for
cash, the consideration received therefor for purposes of this Warrant will
be
the amount received by the Company therefor, before deduction of reasonable
commissions, underwriting discounts or allowances or other reasonable expenses
paid or incurred by the Company in connection with such issuance, grant or
sale. In case any Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are
issued or sold for a consideration part or all of which shall be other than
cash, the amount of the consideration other than cash received by the Company
will be the fair value of such consideration, except where such consideration
consists of securities, in which case the amount of consideration received
by
the Company will be the Market Price thereof as of the date of
receipt.
-5-
In
case
any Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued in connection
with any acquisition, merger or consolidation in which the Company is the
surviving corporation, the amount of consideration therefor will be deemed
to be
the fair value of such portion of the net assets and business of the
non-surviving corporation as is attributable to such Common Stock, Options
or
Convertible Securities, as the case may be. The fair value of any
consideration other than cash or securities will be determined in good faith
by
the Board of Directors of the Company.
(vi) Exceptions
to Adjustment of Exercise Price. No
adjustment to the Exercise Price will be made (i) upon the exercise of any
warrants, options or convertible securities granted, issued and outstanding
on
the date of issuance of this Warrant; (ii) upon the grant or exercise of any
stock or options which may hereafter be granted or exercised under any employee
benefit plan, stock option plan or restricted stock plan of the Company now
existing or to be implemented in the future, so long as the issuance of such
stock or options is approved by a majority of the independent members of the
Board of Directors of the Company or a majority of the members of a committee
of
independent directors established for such purpose; or (iii) upon the exercise
of the Warrants.
(c) Subdivision
or Combination of Common Stock. If the
Company at any time subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend,
recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification or otherwise) the shares
of
Common Stock acquirable hereunder into a greater number of shares, then, after
the date of record for effecting such subdivision, the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately
reduced. If the Company at any time combines (by reverse stock split,
recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification or otherwise) the shares
of
Common Stock acquirable hereunder into a smaller number of shares, then, after
the date of record for effecting such combination, the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately
increased.
(d) Adjustment
in Number of Shares. Upon each
adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to the provisions of this Paragraph
4,
the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant
shall be adjusted by multiplying a number equal to the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment
and
dividing the product so obtained by the adjusted Exercise Price.
(e) Consolidation,
Merger or Sale. In case of any
consolidation of the Company with, or merger of the Company into any other
corporation, or in case of any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all
of
the assets of the Company other than in connection with a plan of complete
liquidation of the Company, then as a condition of such consolidation, merger
or
sale or conveyance, adequate provision will be made whereby the holder of this
Warrant will have the right to acquire and receive upon exercise of this Warrant
in lieu of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore acquirable upon
the exercise of this Warrant, such shares of stock, securities or assets as
may
be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for the number of shares
of
Common Stock immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon exercise
of
this Warrant had such consolidation, merger or sale or conveyance not taken
place.
-6-
In
any
such case, the Company will make appropriate provision to insure that the
provisions of this Paragraph 4 hereof will thereafter be applicable as nearly
as
may be in relation to any shares of stock or securities thereafter deliverable
upon the exercise of this Warrant. The Company will not effect any
consolidation, merger or sale or conveyance unless prior to the consummation
thereof, the successor corporation (if other than the Company) assumes by
written instrument the obligations under this Paragraph 4 and the obligations
to
deliver to the holder of this Warrant such shares of stock, securities or assets
as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the holder may be entitled
to
acquire.
(f) Distribution
of Assets. In case the Company shall
declare or make any distribution of its assets (including cash) to holders
of
Common Stock as a partial liquidating dividend, by way of return of capital
or
otherwise, then, after the date of record for determining shareholders entitled
to such distribution, but prior to the date of distribution, the holder of
this
Warrant shall be entitled upon exercise of this Warrant for the purchase of
any
or all of the shares of Common Stock subject hereto, to receive the amount
of
such assets which would have been payable to the holder had such holder been
the
holder of such shares of Common Stock on the record date for the determination
of shareholders entitled to such distribution.
(g) Notice
of Adjustment. Upon the occurrence of
any event which requires any adjustment of the Exercise Price, then, and in
each
such case, the Company shall give notice thereof to the holder of this Warrant,
which notice shall state the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment
and
the increase or decrease in the number of Warrant Shares purchasable at such
price upon exercise, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of
calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. Such
calculation shall be certified by the Chief Financial Officer of the
Company.
(h) Minimum
Adjustment of Exercise Price. No
adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made in an amount of less than 1%
of
the Exercise Price in effect at the time such adjustment is otherwise required
to be made, but any such lesser adjustment shall be carried forward and shall
be
made at the time and together with the next subsequent adjustment which,
together with any adjustments so carried forward, shall amount to not less
than
1% of such Exercise Price.
(i) No
Fractional Shares. No fractional shares
of Common Stock are to be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but the
Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of any fractional share which
would otherwise be issuable in an amount equal to the same fraction of the
Market Price of a share of Common Stock on the date of such
exercise.
(j) Other
Notices. In case at any
time:
(i) the
Company shall declare any dividend upon the Common Stock payable in shares
of
stock of any class or make any other distribution (including dividends or
distributions payable in cash out of retained earnings) to the holders of the
Common Stock;
(ii) the
Company shall offer for subscription pro rata to the holders of the Common
Stock
any additional shares of stock of any class or other rights;
(iii) there
shall be any capital reorganization of the Company, or reclassification of
the Common Stock, or consolidation or merger of the Company with or into, or
sale of all or substantially all its assets to, another corporation or
entity; or
-7-
(iv) there
shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up
of the Company;
then,
in
each such case, the Company shall give to the holder of this Warrant (a) notice
of the date on which the books of the Company shall close or a record shall
be
taken for determining the holders of Common Stock entitled to receive any such
dividend, distribution, or subscription rights or for determining the
holders of Common Stock entitled to vote in respect of any such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or
winding-up and (b) in the case of any such reorganization, reclassification,
consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, notice
of
the date (or, if not then known, a reasonable approximation thereof by the
Company) when the same shall take place. Such notice shall also
specify the date on which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to
receive such dividend, distribution, or subscription rights or to exchange
their
Common Stock for stock or other securities or property deliverable upon such
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution,
liquidation, or winding-up, as the case may be. Such notice shall be
given at least 30 days prior to the record date or the date on which the
Company’s books are closed in respect thereto. Failure to give any
such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the validity of the
proceedings referred to in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above.
(k) Certain
Events. If any event occurs of the type
contemplated by the adjustment provisions of this Paragraph 4 but not expressly
provided for by such provisions, the Company will give notice of such event
as
provided in Paragraph 4(g) hereof, and the Company’s Board of Directors will
make an appropriate adjustment in the Exercise Price and the number of shares
of
Common Stock acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant so that the rights of
the
holder shall be neither enhanced nor diminished by such event.
(l) Certain
Definitions.
(i) “Common
Stock Deemed Outstanding” shall mean the number of
shares of Common Stock actually outstanding (not including shares of Common
Stock held in the treasury of the Company), plus (x) pursuant to Paragraph
4(b)(i) hereof, the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable
upon
the exercise of Options, as of the date of such issuance or grant of such
Options, if any, and (y) pursuant to Paragraph 4(b)(ii) hereof, the maximum
total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exchange
of
Convertible Securities, as of the date of issuance of such Convertible
Securities, if any.
(ii) “Market
Price,” as of any date, (i) means the average of
the last reported sale prices for the shares of Common Stock on the Pink Sheets
for the five (5) Trading Days immediately preceding such date as reported by
Bloomberg, or (ii) if the Pink Sheets is not the principal trading market for
the shares of Common Stock, the average of the last reported sale prices on
the
principal trading market for the Common Stock during the same period as reported
by Bloomberg, or (iii) if market value cannot be calculated as of such date
on
any of the foregoing bases, the Market Price shall be the fair market value
as
reasonably determined in good faith by (a) the Board of Directors of the Company
or, at the option of a majority-in-interest of the holders of the outstanding
Warrants by (b) an independent investment bank of nationally recognized standing
in the valuation of businesses similar to the business of the corporation.
The
manner of determining the Market Price of the Common Stock set forth in the
foregoing definition shall apply with respect to any other security in respect
of which a determination as to market value must be made hereunder.
-8-
(iii) “Common
Stock,” for purposes of this Paragraph 4, includes
the Common Stock, no par value per share, and any additional class of stock
of
the Company having no preference as to dividends or distributions on
liquidation, provided that the shares purchasable pursuant to this Warrant
shall
include only shares of Common Stock, no par value per share, in respect of
which
this Warrant is exercisable, or shares resulting from any subdivision or
combination of such Common Stock, or in the case of any reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, or sale of the character referred
to in
Paragraph 4(e) hereof, the stock or other securities or property provided for
in
such Paragraph.
5. Issue
Tax.
The
issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares upon the exercise of
this
Warrant shall be made without charge to the holder of this Warrant
or such
shares for any issuance tax or other costs in respect thereof, provided
that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be
payable
in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery
of any
certificate in a name other than the holder of this
Warrant.
|
6. No
Rights or Liabilities as a Shareholder.
This
Warrant shall not entitle the holder hereof to any voting rights
or other
rights as a shareholder of the Company. No provision of this
Warrant, in the absence of affirmative action by the holder hereof
to
purchase Warrant Shares, and no mere enumeration herein of the rights
or
privileges of the holder hereof, shall give rise to any liability
of such
holder for the Exercise Price or as a shareholder of the Company,
whether
such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the
Company.
|
7. Transfer,
Exchange, and Replacement of Warrant.
(a) Restriction
on Transfer. This Warrant and the
rights granted to the holder hereof are transferable, in whole or in part,
upon
surrender of this Warrant, together with a properly executed assignment in
the
form attached hereto, at the office or agency of the Company referred to in
Paragraph 7(e) below, provided, however, that any transfer or
assignment shall be subject to the conditions set forth in Paragraph 7(f) hereof
and to the applicable provisions of the Securities Purchase
Agreement. Until due presentment for registration of transfer on the
books of the Company, the Company may treat the registered holder hereof as
the
owner and holder hereof for all purposes, and the Company shall not be affected
by any notice to the contrary. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, the registration rights described in Paragraph 8
are
assignable only in accordance with the provisions of that certain Registration
Rights Agreement, dated January 25, 2007, by and among the Company and the
other
signatories thereto (the “Registration Rights Agreement”).
(b) Warrant
Exchangeable for Different
Denominations. This Warrant is
exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the holder hereof at the office
or agency of the Company referred to in Paragraph 7(e) below, for new Warrants
of like tenor representing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number
of
shares of Common Stock which may be purchased hereunder, each of such new
Warrants to represent the right to purchase such number of shares as shall
be
designated by the holder hereof at the time of such surrender.
-9-
(c) Replacement
of Warrant. Upon receipt of
evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft,
destruction, or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss,
theft, or destruction, upon delivery of an indemnity agreement
reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company, or, in the case
of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the
Company, at its expense, will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new
Warrant of like tenor.
(d) Cancellation;
Payment of Expenses. Upon the surrender
of this Warrant in connection with any transfer, exchange, or replacement
as provided in this Paragraph 7, this Warrant shall be promptly canceled by
the
Company. The Company shall pay all taxes (other than securities
transfer taxes) and all other expenses (other than legal expenses, if any,
incurred by the holder or transferees) and charges payable in connection with
the preparation, execution, and delivery of Warrants pursuant to this Paragraph
7.
(e) Register. The
Company shall maintain, at its principal executive offices (or such other office
or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to the holder hereof),
a
register for this Warrant, in which the Company shall record the name and
address of the person in whose name this Warrant has been issued, as well as
the
name and address of each transferee and each prior owner of this
Warrant.
(f) Exercise
or Transfer Without Registration. If,
at the time of the surrender of this Warrant in connection with any exercise,
transfer, or exchange of this Warrant, this Warrant (or, in the case of any
exercise, the Warrant Shares issuable hereunder), shall not be registered under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and under

11. Miscellaneous.
(a) Amendments. This
Warrant and any provision hereof may only be amended by an instrument in writing
signed by the Company and the holder hereof.
(b) Descriptive
Headings. The descriptive headings of
the several paragraphs of this Warrant are inserted for purposes of
reference only, and shall not affect the meaning or construction of any of

-11-
In
the
event of a Cashless Exercise, in lieu of paying the Exercise Price in cash,
the
holder shall surrender this Warrant for that number of shares of Common Stock
determined by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares to which it would
otherwise be entitled by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the
difference between the then current Market Price per share of the Common Stock
and the Exercise Price, and the denominator of which shall be the
then current Market Price per share of Common Stock. For example, if
the holder is exercising 100,000 Warrants with a per Warrant exercise price
of
$0.75 per share through a cashless exercise when the Common Stock’s current
Market Price per share is $2.00 per share, then upon such Cashless Exercise
the
holder will receive 62,500 shares of Common Stock.
(d) Remedies. The
Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will
cause
irreparable harm to the holder, by vitiating the intent and purpose of the
transaction contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the Company
acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this
Warrant will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened
breach by the Company of the provisions of this Warrant, that the holder shall
be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies at law or in equity,
and in addition to the penalties assessable herein, to an injunction or
injunctions restraining, preventing or curing any breach of this Warrant and
to
enforce specifically the terms and provisions thereof, without the necessity
of
showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being
required.
