Within five (5) Trading Days following the date of exercise as aforesaid and upon delivery by Holder of this Warrant and the aggregate Exercise Price for the shares specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise (by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank), the Company shall issue and cause to be delivered to Holder the certificate or certificates (or electronic equivalent thereof) representing the number of fully-paid and non-assessable Warrant Shares for which the Warrant is being exercised. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased and, following such partial exercise, the Company shall deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant.

(b) Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such certificate, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company.

(c) Share Ownership Limit. The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, to the extent that, after giving effect to the exercise set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, the Holder would have Beneficial

The Company shall also not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, to the extent that, after giving effect to the exercise set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, such Holder (together with such Holder’s Affiliates, and any Persons acting as a group together with such Holder or any of such Holder’s Affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of the Holder Limit. The “Holder Limit” shall be 49.5% of the total number of securities of the Company (with convertible securities not considered separately but as part of the of the underlying securities) outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of Warrant Shares otherwise issuable pursuant to the applicable Notice of Exercise. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this paragraph to correct this section (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Holder Limit contained herein or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limit.

(d) Legend. The Holder agrees that all certificates or other instruments representing the Warrant Shares will bear a legend substantially to the following effect:

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS INSTRUMENT HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT WHILE A REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATING THERETO IS IN EFFECT UNDER SUCH ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT OR SUCH LAWS.

Section 3. Certain Adjustments.

(a) If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or makes a distribution to holders of any class or series of capital stock of the Company in shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company upon exercise of this Warrant or warrants issued prior to this Warrant), (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, (iii) combines its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues any shares of its capital stock by reclassification of the Common Stock, then the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Company) outstanding immediately before such event, and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Additionally, if the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to this Section 3(a), the number of Warrant Shares subject to this Warrant shall also be adjusted by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares then subject to this warrant by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Company) outstanding immediately after such event and which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Company) outstanding immediately before such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification.

(b) Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 3, the Company shall promptly deliver to the Holder a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made pursuant to this Section 3 in an amount less than $.0001 per share, and 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 $.0001 per share or more.

Section 4. Miscellaneous.

(a) No Rights as Shareholder. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a shareholder of the Company.

(b) Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of the Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.

(c) Authorized Shares. The Company covenants that, during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant.

The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the exchange upon which the Common Stock may be listed. The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of this Warrant and payment for such Warrant Shares in accordance herewith, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by the Company in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).

(d) Governing Law and Forum. This Warrant shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York without regard to the principles of conflicts of laws. The Company and each and every Holder hereby irrevocably (i) consents, to the maximum extent permitted by law, that any action or proceeding relating to this Warrant or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be brought, at the option of the party instituting the action or proceeding, in any court of general jurisdiction in New York County, New York, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York or in any state or federal court sitting in the area currently comprising the Southern District of New York, (ii) waives any objection that it may have to the conduct of any action or proceeding in any such court based on improper venue or forum non conveniens, waives personal service of any and all process upon it, and (iii) consents that all service of process may be made by mail or courier service directed to it at the address set forth on the records of the Company and that service so made shall be deemed to be completed upon the earlier of actual receipt or ten days after the same shall have been posted or delivered to a nationally recognized courier service. Nothing contained in this Warrant shall affect the right of any party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law.

(e) Notices. All notices or other communications required or permitted to be given pursuant to this Warrant shall be in writing, and and if sent to the Holder, shall be delivered to Real Estate Strategies L.P.
