for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged,
Xxxxxx X. Xxxxx, the registered holder hereof or his permitted assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled,
subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company, at the Exercise Price (as

(the “Subsequently Exercisable Warrant Shares”, and together with the Immediately Exercisable
Warrant Shares, the “Warrant Shares”). Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms in
this Warrant shall have the meanings set forth in Section 15. This Warrant to purchase

providing services to the Company as a consultant in the area of investor relations.
1. EXERCISE OF WARRANT.
(a) Mechanics of Exercise. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, this Warrant
may be exercised by the Holder on any Business Day during the applicable Exercise Period, in whole
or in part, by (i) delivery in accordance with Section 8 hereof of a written notice, in the
form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Exercise Notice”), of the Holder’s election
to exercise this Warrant and (ii) (A) payment to the Company of an amount equal to the
Exercise Price in effect at the time of exercise multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares as to
which this Warrant is being exercised (the “Aggregate Exercise Price”) in cash or by wire transfer
of immediately available funds, or (B) by notifying the Company that this Warrant is being
exercised pursuant to a Cashless Exercise (as defined in Section 1(c)). The Holder shall
not be required to deliver the original Warrant in order to effect an exercise hereunder.
Execution and delivery of the Exercise Notice with respect to less than all of the Warrant Shares
shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original Warrant and issuance of a new Warrant
evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares. On or before the third
(3rd) Business Day following the date on which the Company has received each of the
Exercise Notice and the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a Cashless Exercise) (the “Exercise
Delivery Documents”), the Company shall, (X) provided that American Stock Transfer and Trust
Company (the Company’s “Transfer Agent”) is participating in The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”)
Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, upon the request of the Holder, credit such aggregate
number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Holder’s
or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal At Custodian system, or
(Y) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer
Program, issue and dispatch by overnight courier to the address as specified in the Exercise
Notice, a certificate, registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its
designee, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such
exercise. Upon delivery of the Exercise Delivery Documents, the Holder shall be deemed for all
corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which
this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date such Warrant Shares are credited to the
Holder’s DTC account or the date of delivery of the certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares, as
the case may be. If this Warrant is submitted in connection with any exercise pursuant to this
Section 1(a) and the number of Warrant Shares represented by this Warrant submitted for
exercise is greater than the number of Warrant Shares being acquired upon an exercise, then the
Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than three (3) Business Days after any
exercise and at its own expense, issue a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d))
representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately prior to
such exercise under this Warrant, less the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this
Warrant is exercised. No fractional shares of Common Stock are to be issued upon the exercise of
this Warrant, but rather the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall be rounded up to
the nearest whole number.
(b) Exercise Price. For purposes of this Warrant, “Exercise Price” means $1.056,
subject to adjustment as provided herein.
(c) Cashless Exercise. The Holder may, in its sole discretion, exercise this Warrant
in whole or in part and, in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to
the Company upon such exercise in payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price, elect instead to receive
upon such exercise the “Net Number” of shares of Common Stock determined according to the following
formula (a “Cashless Exercise”):
Net
Number = (A x B) - (A x C)
B
B
2
For purposes of the foregoing formula:
A= | the total number of shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised. | |||
B= | the Closing Sale Price of the shares of Common Stock on the date immediately preceding the date of the Exercise Notice. | |||
C= | the Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Warrant Shares at the time of such exercise. |
(d) Rule 144. For purposes of Rule 144(d) promulgated under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, as in effect on the date hereof (the “Securities Act”), assuming the Holder is
not an affiliate of the Company, it is intended that the Warrant Shares issued in a Cashless
Exercise shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the
Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the Issuance Date.
(e) Disputes. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price
or the arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall promptly issue to the Holder
the number of Warrant Shares that are not disputed.
2. ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES. If the Company at any
time on or after the Issuance Date subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend,
recapitalization, reorganization, scheme, arrangement or otherwise) one or more classes of its
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant
Shares will be proportionately increased. If the Company at any time on or after the Issuance Date
combines (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, scheme, arrangement
or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number
of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be
proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Shares will be proportionately decreased. Any
adjustment under this Section 2 shall become effective at the close of business on the date
the subdivision or combination becomes effective.
3. RIGHTS UPON DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS.
(a) If at any time or from time to time the holders of Common Stock of the Company (or any
shares of stock or other securities at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall
have received or become entitled to receive, without payment therefore:
(i) Common Stock or any shares of stock or other securities that are at any time
directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or any rights or
options to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any of the foregoing by way of
dividend or other distribution (other than a dividend or distribution covered in Section
2 above);
(ii) any cash paid or payable otherwise than as a cash dividend;
3
or
(iii) Common Stock or additional stock or other securities or property (including cash)
by way of spinoff, split-up, reclassification, combination of shares or similar corporate
rearrangement (other than shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 2 above), then
and in each such case, the Holder hereof will, upon the exercise of this Warrant, be
entitled to receive, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable
thereupon, and without payment of any additional consideration therefor, the amount of stock
and other securities and property (including cash in the cases referred to in clauses (ii)
and (iii) above) which such Holder would hold on the date of such exercise had such Holder
been the holder of record of such Common Stock as of the date on which holders of Common
Stock received or became entitled to receive such shares or all other additional stock and
other securities and property.
(b) Upon the occurrence of each adjustment pursuant to this Section 3, the Company,
will, at the written request of the Holder and at the expense of the Company, promptly compute such
adjustment in accordance with the terms of this Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth
such adjustment, including a statement of the adjusted number or type of Warrant Shares or other
securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (as applicable), describing the transactions
giving rise to such adjustments and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment is
based. Upon written request, the Company will promptly deliver a copy of each such certificate to
the Holder and to the Company’s transfer agent.
4. TERMINATION. In the event that for any reason, prior to September 29, 2010, the
Holder is no longer providing consulting services to the Company, at the Company’s discretion all
or a portion of the Subsequently Exercisable Warrant Shares can be terminated by the Company. In
the event and to the extent of such termination, this Warrant shall no longer apply to such
Subsequently Exercisable Warrant Shares.
5. NONCIRCUMVENTION. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will
not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws or through any reorganization,
transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, 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 of this Warrant, and will at all times in good faith comply with all the
provisions of this Warrant. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company
(i) shall 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, (ii) shall 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, and (iii) shall, so long as
this Warrant is outstanding, take all action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its
authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the exercise of
this Warrant, 100% of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant
then outstanding (without regard to any limitations on exercise).
6. WARRANT HOLDER NOT DEEMED A STOCKHOLDER. Except as otherwise specifically provided
herein, the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as a holder of this Warrant, shall not be
entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of share
4
capital of the Company for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Warrant be
construed to confer upon the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as the Holder of this
Warrant, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold
consent to any corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue of stock, reclassification of
stock, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise), receive notice of meetings, receive
dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise, prior to the issuance to the Holder of the Warrant
Shares which such Person is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Warrant. In
addition, nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing any liabilities on the
Holder to purchase any securities (upon exercise of this Warrant or otherwise) or as a stockholder
of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the
Company.
7. REISSUANCE OF WARRANTS.
(a) Transfer of Warrant. If this Warrant is to be transferred, the Holder shall
surrender this Warrant to the Company and deliver the completed and executed Assignment Form, in
the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, whereupon the Company will forthwith issue and

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
