WITNESSETH

WHEREAS, the Company proposes to issue up to 500,000 units (the “Units”) in connection with the Company’s public offering (the “Series B Offering”), with each unit comprised of (i) one share of Series B Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”), and (ii) one warrant (each, a “Warrant,” and collectively, the “Warrants”) to purchase 20 shares of Class A common stock of the Company, par value $0.01 (the “Common Stock”).

Section 4

[RESERVED]

Section 5

Transfer and Exchange of Warrants

(a)    The registration of the transfer and exchange of Warrants or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the Depository in accordance with this Agreement and the procedures and requirements of the Depository. Such requirements shall include, inter alia, a signature guarantee from an eligible guarantor institution participating in a signature guarantee program approved by the Securities Transfer Association. The Company may instruct the Warrant Agent from time to time that certain Warrants are subject to restrictions on transfer, in which case the Warrant Agent shall not permit the transfer of such Warrants without the consent of the Company. A Global Warrant Certificate may only be transferred as a whole, and not in part, and only by (i) the Depository to a nominee of the Depository, (ii) a nominee of the Depository to the Depository or another nominee of the Depository, or (iii) the Depository or any such nominee to a successor Depository or its nominee.

3

(b)    To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute and the Warrant Agent shall countersign, by either manual or facsimile or other electronic submission, each Global Warrant Certificate. No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange. Any transfer tax, assessments, or similar governmental charge payable in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange shall be paid by the Holder. All Warrants issued upon any transfer or exchange pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be valid obligations of the Company, entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement as the Warrants surrendered upon such transfer or exchange.

(c)    If any Global Warrant Certificate shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue, and the Warrant Agent shall countersign and deliver, in exchange and substitution for, and upon cancellation of the mutilated Global Warrant Certificate, or in lieu of and substitution for the Global Warrant Certificate lost, stolen or destroyed, a new Global Warrant Certificate of like tenor and representing an equivalent number of Warrants, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Warrant Agent of the loss, theft or destruction of such Global Warrant Certificate and an affidavit and the posting of an open penalty surety bond satisfactory to it. Applicants for such substitute Global Warrant Certificates shall also comply with such other reasonable regulations and pay such other reasonable charges as the Warrant Agent may prescribe and as required by Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of New York.

(d)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Person may Beneficially Own or Constructively Own more than 9.8% of the outstanding Warrants, or such other percentage as determined by the Board of Directors in its sole and absolute discretion. Any Transfer of Warrants in violation of the foregoing restriction will be subject to the provisions in Section 6.1.1(b) of the Company’s charter as though such Transfer of Warrants were a Transfer of Shares that violated the Ownership Limits. For purposes of the foregoing restriction, Warrants will be treated as though they are Shares for purposes of the definitions and other provisions in Article VI of the Company’s charter, including for purposes of the definitions of Beneficial Ownership and Constructive Ownership therein. Defined terms used in this Section 5(d) that are not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meaning provided for in the Company’s charter.

Section 6

Exercise of Warrants; Mechanics of Exercise

(a)    Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and set forth in each Global Warrant Certificate, each Warrant shall be exercisable for 20 shares of Common Stock at the Exercise Price (subject to any adjustment pursuant to Section 7) commencing one year from the date of issuance thereof (the “Initial Exercise Date”). Such Warrant shall cease to be exercisable and shall terminate and become void, and all rights thereunder and under this Agreement shall cease, at the Close of Business on the third anniversary of the Initial Exercise Date (the “Expiration Date”).

4

(b)    A Holder may exercise a Warrant in whole, but not in part, by delivering, not later than 5:00 p.m. New York time, on any Business Day to the Warrant Agent at its office: (i) the exercise notice set forth in Exhibit A to the Global Warrant Certificate (the “Exercise Notice”) and (ii) payment, for the account of the Company, of an amount equal to the product of (A) the Exercise Price and (B) 20. Such payment shall be made in United States dollars by certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company or by wire transfer of funds to an account designated by the Company for such purpose. Any Holder shall effect compliance with the requirements in clauses (i) and (ii) above through the relevant members of the Depository in accordance with the procedures of the Depository. If the Exercise Notice or the Exercise Price is received by the Warrant Agent after the Close of Business, the Warrant will be deemed to be received and exercised on the next Business Day. If the Warrant is received or deemed to be received after the Expiration Date, the exercise thereof will be null and void and any funds delivered to the Warrant Agent will be returned to the Holder as soon as practicable. In no event will interest accrue on funds deposited with the Warrant Agent in respect of an exercise or attempted exercise of a Warrant.

(c)    Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, upon any exercise, the Holder may satisfy its obligation to pay the Exercise Price through a “cashless exercise,” in which event the Warrant Agent shall issue to the Holder, subject to confirmation by the Company, the number of Warrant Shares as follows (the “Cashless Exercise Ratio”):

X = Y [(A-B)/A]

where:

X = the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Holder

Y = the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which the Warrant is being exercised

A = the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock

B = the Exercise Price

For the purpose of computation of the Cashless Exercise Ratio, the “Fair Market Value” per share of Common Stock at any date shall be deemed to be the closing price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date on which the Exercise Notice is received in accordance with Section 6(b).

(d)    No payment or adjustment shall be made on account of any distributions or dividends on the Warrant Shares.

(e)    If less than all the Warrants evidenced by a Global Warrant Certificate surrendered are exercised, a new Global Warrant Certificate shall be issued for the remaining number of Warrants evidenced by the Global Warrant Certificate so surrendered, and the Warrant Agent is hereby authorized to countersign the new Global Warrant Certificate pursuant to the provisions of Section 3 and this Section 6.

5

(f)    The Warrant Agent shall not effect any exercise of any Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise a Warrant to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance, the Holder would Beneficially Own or Constructively Own outstanding shares of Common Stock in excess of the Ownership Limits or Excepted Holder Limit. Defined terms used in this Section 6(f) that are not otherwise defined shall have the meaning provided for in the Company’s charter. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 6 to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Ownership Limits herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor Holder.

(g)    As soon as reasonably practicable after the exercise of any Warrant, the Company shall issue, or otherwise deliver, in authorized denominations to or upon the order of the Holder of such by same-day or next-day credit to the Depository for the account of such Holder or for the account of a participant in the Depository the Warrant Shares to which such Holder is entitled, in each case registered in such name and delivered to such account as directed in the Exercise Notice by such Holder or by the direct participant in the Depository through which such Holder is acting.

(h)    All funds received by Computershare under this Agreement that are to be distributed or applied by Computershare in the performance of Services (the “Funds”) shall be held by Computershare as agent for the Company and deposited in one or more bank accounts to be maintained by Computershare in its name as agent for the Company.  Computershare will hold the Funds through such accounts in: deposit accounts of commercial banks with Tier 1 capital exceeding $1 billion or with an average rating above investment grade by S&P (LT Local Issuer Credit Rating), Xxxxx’x (Long Term Rating) and Fitch Ratings, Inc. (LT Issuer Default Rating) (each as reported by Bloomberg Finance L.P.).  Computershare shall have no responsibility or liability for any diminution of the Funds that may result from any deposit made by Computershare in accordance with this paragraph, including any losses resulting from a default by any bank, financial institution or other third party.  Computershare may from time to time receive interest, dividends or other earnings in connection with such deposits.  Computershare shall not be obligated to pay such interest, dividends or earnings to the Company, any holder or any other party.

(i)    The Company shall calculate and transmit to the Warrant Agent, and the Warrant Agent shall have no obligation under this Agreement to calculate, the Cashless Exercise Ratio. The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued on such exercise will be determined by the company (with written notice thereof to the Warrant Agent) using the formula set forth in this Section 6,  the Warrant Agent shall have no duty or obligation to investigate or confirm whether the Company’s determination of the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued on such exercise, pursuant to this Section 6, is accurate or correct.

(j)    The Warrant Agent shall forward funds received for warrant exercises in a given month by the fifth business day of the following month by wire transfer to an account designated by the Company.

6

(k)    Cost basis information.

(i)       In the event of a cash exercise, the Company hereby instructs the Warrant Agent to record cost basis for newly issued shares as follows: $0.01 per Warrant exercised, plus the aggregate exercise price paid to acquire the shares issued in the cash exercise.

(ii)       In the event of a cashless exercise, the Company shall provide cost basis for shares issued pursuant to a cashless exercise at the time the Company provides the Cashless Exercise Ratio to the Warrant Agent pursuant to this Section 6.

Section 7

Adjustment of Exercise Price

The Exercise Price and the Warrant Shares are subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 7.

(a)    In case the Company shall, while any Warrants remain outstanding and unexpired, (i) declare a dividend or make a distribution on its outstanding Common Stock in Common Stock, (ii) subdivide or reclassify its outstanding Common Stock into a greater number of shares, (iii) combine or reclassify its outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) enter into any transaction whereby the outstanding shares of Common Stock are at any time changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other securities of the Company or of another entity through reorganization, merger, consolidation, liquidation or recapitalization (each such event being an “Adjustment Event”), then an appropriate adjustment in the number of shares of Common Stock (or other securities for which such shares of Common Stock have previously been exchanged or converted) purchasable under the Warrants shall be made and the Exercise Price in effect at the time of the record date for such dividend or distribution or of the effective date of such subdivision, combination, reclassification, reorganization, merger, consolidation, liquidation or recapitalization shall be proportionately adjusted so that the Holder of the warrant exercised after such date shall be entitled to receive the aggregate number and kind of shares or other securities which, if the Warrant had been exercised by such Holder immediately prior to such date, the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon such dividend, distribution, subdivision, combination, reclassification, reorganization, merger, consolidation, liquidation or recapitalization. For example, if the Company declares a two-for-one stock subdivision (split) and the Exercise Price hereof immediately prior to such event was $20.00 and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant was 20, the adjusted Exercise Price immediately after such event would be $10.00 and the adjusted number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant would be 40. Any such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event listed above shall occur. The Company agrees that it will provide the Warrant Agent with reasonable notice of Adjustment Events along with any new or amended exercise terms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Warrant Agent shall have no obligation under any this Agreement to determine whether an Adjustment Event has occurred or to calculate any of the adjustments set forth herein.

7

(b)    No adjustment in the Exercise Price shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least one percent (1%) in the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of each Warrant; provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this Section 7(b) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment(s). All calculations shall be made to the nearest one hundredth (1/100) of a share.

(c)    When a specified event requiring an adjustment occurs, the Company shall promptly prepare a certificate setting forth, as applicable: (i) the Exercise Price of each Warrant, and (ii) the number of Warrant Shares covering each Warrant, each as adjusted, and a brief statement of the facts accounting for such adjustment. The Company shall promptly file with the Warrant Agent and with each transfer agent for the Common Stock a copy of such certificate and instruct the Warrant Agent to mail a brief summary thereof to each Holder.

Section 8

(d)    The Company further covenants and agrees that it will pay when due and payable any and all federal and state transfer taxes and charges which may be payable in respect of the original issuance or delivery of the Global Warrant Certificate or the Warrant Shares. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay any tax or governmental charge which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the transfer or delivery of a Global Warrant Certificate or the issuance of Warrant Shares in a name other than that of the Holder until any such tax or governmental charge shall have been paid (any such tax or governmental charge being payable by the Holder at the time of surrender) or until it has been established to the Company’s reasonable satisfaction that no such tax or governmental charge is due.

Section 9

Fractional Shares of Common Stock

(a)    The Company shall not issue fractions of Warrant Shares. Whenever any fraction of Warrant Shares would otherwise be required to be issued or distributed, (i) a cash adjustment shall be paid in respect of such fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Exercise Price, or (ii) the actual issuance or distribution made shall reflect a rounding of such fraction to the nearest whole share (up or down), with half shares or less being rounded down and fractions in excess of half of a share being rounded up.

(b)    The Holder, by the acceptance of the Warrant, expressly waives his right to receive any fractional Warrant Share.

The Company shall be entitled to participate at its own expense in the defense of any such claim or proceeding, and, if it so elects at any time after receipt of such notice, it may assume the defense of any suit brought to enforce any such claim or of any other legal action or proceeding.

Not later than the effective date of any such appointment, the Company shall file notice thereof with the former Warrant Agent and each transfer agent for the Common Stock, and shall forthwith mail notice thereof to the registered Holders at their addresses as they appear on the registry books. Failure to file or mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of the appointment of the successor Warrant Agent.

FORM OF REVERSE SIDE OF GLOBAL WARRANT CERTIFICATE

Each Warrant evidenced by this Global Warrant Certificate is a part of a duly authorized issue of Warrants.  The Warrant Agreement is hereby incorporated by reference herein and made a part of this instrument and is hereby referred to for a description of the rights, limitation of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Warrant Agent, the Company and the registered holders of Global Warrant Certificates.

Upon due presentment for registration of transfer and surrender of the Warrants at the office of the Warrant Agent designated for such purpose, a new Global Warrant Certificate or Global Warrant Certificates of like tenor and evidencing in the aggregate a like number of Warrants shall be issued to the transferee in exchange for this Global Warrant Certificate, subject to the limitations set forth in the Warrant Agreement, without charge except for any applicable tax or other charge.

Subject to Section 9 of the Warrant Agreement, the Company shall not be required to issue fractional shares of Common Stock.

No Warrants may be sold, exchanged or otherwise transferred in violation of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, state securities laws or other applicable law. The Warrants do not entitle the registered holder hereof or the Holders to any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company.

The Company and Warrant Agent may deem and treat the registered holder hereof as the absolute owner of this Global Warrant Certificate (notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing hereon made by anyone other than the Company or the Warrant Agent) for the purpose of any exercise hereof and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the Warrant Agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

This Global Warrant Certificate is held by The Depository Trust Company (the “Depository”) or its nominee in custody for the benefit of the beneficial owners hereof, and is not transferable to any Person under any circumstances except that (i) this Global Warrant Certificate may be transferred pursuant to Section 5 of the Warrant Agreement, and (ii) this Global Warrant Certificate may be delivered to the Warrant Agent for cancellation pursuant to Section 6(d) of the Warrant Agreement.

Unless this Global Warrant Certificate is presented by an authorized representative of the Depository to the Company or the Warrant Agent for registration of transfer, exchange or payment and any certificate issued is registered in the name of Cede & Co., or such other entity as is requested by an authorized representative of the Depository (and any payment hereon is made to Cede & Co. or to such other entity as is requested by an authorized representative of the Depository), any transfer, pledge or other use hereof for value or otherwise by or to any Person is wrongful because the registered owner hereof, Cede & Co., has an interest herein.

No registration or transfer of the securities issuable pursuant to the Warrants will be recorded on the books and records of the Company or the Warrant Agent until the provisions set forth in the Warrant Agreement have been complied with.

In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between this Global Warrant Certificate and the Warrant Agreement, the Warrant Agreement shall control.
