from the effective date of the registration statement] (the “Expiration Date”), but not

_____________ units of the Company (the “Units”) subject to adjustment
as provided in Section 6 hereof. Each Unit consists of two shares of
the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (each, a “Share” and collectively, the
“Shares”), and one
warrant (each, a “Warrant” and collectively, the
“Warrants”). Each
Warrant entitles the Holder to purchase one Share. If the Expiration
Date is a day on which banking institutions are authorized by law to close, then
this Purchase Warrant may be exercised on the next succeeding day which is not
such a day in accordance with the terms herein. During the period commencing on
the Commencement Date and ending on the Expiration Date, the Company agrees not
to take any action that would terminate the Purchase Warrant. This Purchase
Warrant is initially exercisable at $____ per Unit (120% of the price of the
Units sold in the Offering) so purchased; provided, however, that upon the
occurrence of any of the events specified in Section 6 hereof, the rights
granted by this Purchase Warrant, including the exercise price per Unit and the
number of Units to be received upon such exercise, shall be adjusted as therein
specified. The term “Exercise
Price” shall mean the initial exercise price or the adjusted exercise
price, depending on the context.

Exercise.
|
2.1 Exercise Form. In
order to exercise this Purchase Warrant, the exercise form attached hereto must
be duly executed and completed and delivered to the Company, together with this
Purchase Warrant and payment of the Exercise Price for the Units being purchased
payable in cash (unless exercised pursuant to the terms of Section 2.3 below) by
wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the
Company or by certified check or official bank check. If the subscription rights
represented hereby shall not be exercised at or before 5:00 p.m., Eastern time,
on the Expiration Date, this Purchase Warrant shall become and be void without
further force or effect, and all rights represented hereby shall cease and
expire.
2.2 Legend. Each
certificate for the securities purchased under this Purchase Warrant shall bear
a legend as follows unless such securities have been registered under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”):
“The
securities represented by this certificate have not been registered under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) or applicable state law.
Neither the securities nor any interest therein may be offered for sale, sold or
otherwise transferred except pursuant to an effective registration statement
under the Act, or pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Act and
applicable state law.”
2.3 Cashless
Exercise.
2.3.1 Determination of
Amount. In lieu of the payment of the Exercise Price
multiplied by the number of Units which this Purchase Warrant is exercisable in
the manner required by Section 2.1, the Holder shall have the right (but not the
obligation) to convert any exercisable but unexercised portion of this Purchase
Warrant into Units (“Conversion
Right”) as follows: upon exercise of the Conversion Right, the
Company shall deliver to the Holder (without payment by the Holder of any of the
Exercise Price in cash) that number of shares of Units equal to the quotient
obtained by dividing (x) the “Value” (as defined below) of the portion of the
Purchase Warrant being converted by (y) the Current Market Price per Unit (as
defined below). The “Value” of the portion of the
Purchase Warrant being converted shall equal the remainder derived from
subtracting (a) (i) the Exercise Price multiplied by (ii) the number of Units
underlying the portion of this Purchase Warrant being converted from (b) the
Current Market Price of a Unit multiplied by the number of Units underlying the
portion of the Purchase Warrant being converted. As used herein, the term “Current Market Price” per Unit
at any date shall mean (i) if the Units are listed on a national securities
exchange or quoted on the Nasdaq Global Market, Nasdaq Capital Market or NASD
OTC Bulletin Board (or successor exchange), the last sale price of the Units in
the principal trading market for the Units as reported by the exchange, Nasdaq
or the NASD, as the case may be, on the last trading day preceding the date in
question; (ii) if the Units are not listed on a national securities exchange or
quoted on the Nasdaq Global Market, Nasdaq Capital Market or the NASD OTC
Bulletin Board (or successor exchange), but is traded in the residual
over-the-counter market, the closing bid price for the Units on the last trading
day preceding the date in question for which such quotations are reported by the
Pink Sheets, LLC or similar publisher of such quotations; and (iii) if the fair
market value of the Units cannot be determined pursuant to clause (i) or (ii)
above, such price as the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine, in
good faith based, among other things, on the current market price of the
Company’s common stock and Warrants.

2.3.2 Mechanics of Cashless
Exercise. The cashless exercise right may be exercised by the
Holder on any business day on or after the Commencement Date and not later than
the Expiration Date by delivering the Purchase Warrant with the duly executed
exercise form attached hereto with the cashless exercise section completed to
the Company, exercising the cashless exercise right and specifying the total
number of Units the Holder will purchase pursuant to such cashless exercise
right.

applicable securities laws. In order to make any permitted assignment, the
Holder must deliver to the Company the assignment form attached hereto duly

transfer taxes, if any, payable in connection therewith. The Company shall,
within five business days, transfer this Purchase Warrant on the books of the
Company and shall execute and deliver a new Purchase Warrant or Purchase
Warrants of like tenor to the appropriate assignee(s) expressly evidencing the
right to purchase the aggregate number of Units purchasable hereunder or such
portion of such number as shall be contemplated by any such
assignment.
3.2 Restrictions Imposed by the
Act. The securities evidenced by this Purchase Warrant shall not be
transferred unless and until: (i) the Company has received the opinion of
counsel for the Holder that the securities may be transferred pursuant to an
exemption from registration under the Act and applicable state securities laws,
the availability of which is established to the reasonable satisfaction of the
Company (the Company hereby agreeing that the opinion of Xxxx & Loeb LLP
shall be deemed satisfactory evidence of the availability of an exemption), or
(ii) a registration statement or a post-effective amendment to the registration
statement relating to the offer and sale of such securities has been filed by
the Company and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission

|
Registration
Rights
|
|
4.1
|
Demand
Registration.
|
4.1.1 Grant of Right. The
Company, upon written demand (a “Demand Notice”) of the
Holder(s) of at least 51% of the Purchase Warrants and/or the underlying
securities (“Majority
Holders”), agrees to register (a “Demand Registration”), on one
occasion, all or any portion of the Shares underlying the Purchase Warrants,
including the Shares underlying the Warrants included in the Purchase Warrants
(collectively the “Registrable
Securities”). On such occasion, the Company will file a registration
statement or a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement covering
the Registrable Securities within sixty (60) days after receipt of a Demand
Notice and use its best efforts to have such registration statement or
post-effective amendment declared effective promptly thereafter, subject to
compliance with review by the Commission; provided, however, that the Company
shall not be required to comply with a Demand Notice if the Company has filed a
registration statement with respect to which the Holder is entitled to piggyback
registration rights pursuant to Section 4.2 hereof and either: (i) the Holder
has elected to participate in the offering covered by such registration
statement or (ii) if such registration statement relates to an underwritten
primary offering of securities of the Company, until the offering covered by
such registration statement has been withdrawn or until thirty (30) days after
such offering is consummated. The demands for registration may be made at any
time during a period of five (5) years beginning six (6) months from the
Effective Date. The Company covenants and agrees to give written notice of its
receipt of the Demand Notice by any Holder(s) to all other registered Holders of
the Purchase Warrants and/or the Registrable Securities within ten (10) days
from the date of the receipt of such Demand Notice. The Holders shall
not effect more than two (2) Demand Registrations pursuant to this Section
4.1.
3
4.1.2 Effective
Registration. A registration will not count as a Demand
Registration until the registration statement filed with the Commission with
respect to such Demand Registration has been declared effective and the Company
has complied with all of its obligations under hereunder with respect thereto;
provided, however, that if, after such registration statement has been declared
effective, the offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Demand
Registration is interfered with by any stop order or injunction of the
Commission or any other governmental agency or court, the registration statement
with respect to such Demand Registration will be deemed not to have been
declared effective, unless and until, (i) such stop order or injunction is
removed, rescinded or otherwise terminated, and (ii) the Majority Holders
thereafter elect to continue the offering.
4.1.3 Terms. The Company
shall bear all fees and expenses attendant to the first Demand Registration
pursuant to Section 4.1.1, including the reasonable and documented expenses of
any legal counsel selected by the Holders to represent them in connection with
the sale of the Registrable Securities, but the Holders shall pay any and all
underwriting commissions or brokerage fees related to the Registrable
Securities, if applicable. The Holders shall bear all fees and expenses
(including all underwriting commissions and the expenses of any legal counsel
selected by the Holders to represent them) in connection with the second Demand
Registration described in Section 4.1.1 hereof. The Company agrees to use its
best efforts to cause the filing required herein to become effective promptly
and to qualify or register the Registrable Securities in such States as are
reasonably requested by the Holder(s); provided, however, that in no event shall
the Company be required to register the Registrable Securities in a State in
which such registration would cause: (i) the Company to be obligated to register
or license to do business in such State or submit to general service of process
in such State, or (ii) the principal stockholders of the Company to be obligated
to escrow their shares of capital stock of the Company. The Company shall use
its best efforts to cause any registration statement filed pursuant to the
demand right granted under Section 4.1.1 to remain effective for a period of at
least twelve (12) consecutive months from the date that the Holders of the
Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement are first given
the opportunity to sell all of such securities. The Holders shall only use the
prospectuses provided by the Company to sell the shares covered by such
registration statements, and will immediately cease to use any prospectus
furnished by the Company if the Company advises the Holder that such prospectus
may no longer be used due to a material misstatement or
omission.

4.2
|
“Piggy-Back”
Registration.
|
4.2.1 Grant of Right. In
addition to the demand rights of registration described in Section 4.1 hereof,
the Holder shall have the right, for a period of five (5) years commencing six
(6) months from the Effective Date, to include the Registrable Securities as
part of any other registration of securities filed by the Company (other than in
connection with a transaction contemplated by Rule 145(a) promulgated under the
Act or pursuant to Form S-8 or any equivalent form); provided, however, that if,
solely in connection with any primary underwritten public offering for the
account of the Company, the managing underwriter(s) thereof shall, in its
reasonable discretion, impose a limitation on the number of Shares underlying
the Units which may be included in the registration statement because, in such
underwriter(s)’ judgment, marketing or other factors dictate such limitation is
necessary to facilitate public distribution, then the Company shall be obligated
to include in such registration statement only such limited portion of the
Registrable Securities with respect to which the Holder requested inclusion
hereunder as the underwriter(s) shall reasonably permit. Any exclusion of
Registrable Securities shall be made pro rata among the Holders seeking to
include Registrable Securities in proportion to the number of Registrable
Securities sought to be included by such Holders; provided, however, that the
Company shall not exclude any Registrable Securities unless the Company has
first excluded all outstanding securities, the holders of which are not entitled
to inclusion of such securities in such registration statement or are not
entitled to pro rata inclusion with the Registrable Securities. The
Holders shall be entitled to unlimited piggy-back demand registration rights
pursuant to this Section 4.2.
4.2.2 Withdrawal. Any
holder of Registrable Securities may elect to withdraw such Xxxxxx’s request for
inclusion of Registrable Securities in any piggy-back registration by giving
written notice to the Company of such request to withdraw prior to the
effectiveness of the registration statement. The Company (whether on its own
determination or as the result of a withdrawal by persons making a demand
pursuant to written contractual obligations) may withdraw a registration
statement at any time prior to the effectiveness of the registration
statement. Notwithstanding any such withdrawal, the Company shall pay
all expenses incurred by the Holders of Registrable Securities in connection
with such piggy-back registration as provided in Section 4.2.3.
4.2.3 Terms. The
Company shall bear all fees and expenses attendant to registering the
Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 4.2.1 hereof, including the
reasonable and documented expenses of any legal counsel selected by the Holders
to represent them in connection with the sale of the Registrable Securities, but
the Holders shall pay any and all underwriting commissions or brokerage fees
related to the Registrable Securities. In the event of such a proposed
registration, the Company shall furnish the then Holders of outstanding
Registrable Securities with not less than thirty (30) days written notice prior
to the proposed date of filing of such registration statement. Such notice to
the Holders shall continue to be given for each registration statement filed by
the Company until such time as all of the Registrable Securities have been sold
by the Holder. The holders of the Registrable Securities shall exercise the
“piggy-back” rights provided for herein by giving written notice, within ten
(10) days of the receipt of the Company’s notice of its intention to file a
registration statement. The Company shall use its best efforts to cause any
registration statement filed pursuant to the piggyback right granted under
Section 4.2.1 to remain effective for a period of at least nine (9) consecutive
months from the date that the Holders of the Registrable Securities covered by
such registration statement are first given the opportunity to sell all of such
securities.

4.3
|
General
Terms.
|
4.3.1 Indemnification. The
Company shall indemnify the Holder(s) of the Registrable Securities to be sold
pursuant to any registration statement hereunder and each person, if any, who
controls such Holders within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section
20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), against all
loss, claim, damage, expense or liability (including all reasonable attorneys’
fees and other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or
defending against litigation, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever,
whether arising out of any action between any of the Underwriters (as defined
below) and the Company or between the any of the Underwriters and any third
party or otherwise) to which any of them may become subject under the Act, the
Exchange Act or otherwise, arising from such registration statement but only to
the same extent and with the same effect as the provisions pursuant to which the
Company has agreed to indemnify the Underwriters contained in Section 5.1 of the
Underwriting Agreement between Maxim and the Company, dated as of
_______________, 2010 (the “Underwriting Agreement”). As
used herein, “Underwriters” shall mean,
collectively, Maxim and the other underwriters named on Schedule 1 of the
Underwriting Agreement for which Xxxxx is acting as representative. The
Holder(s) of the Registrable Securities to be sold pursuant to the Offering, and
their successors and assigns, shall severally, and not jointly, indemnify the
Company, against all loss, claim, damage, expense or liability (including all
reasonable attorneys’ fees and other expenses reasonably incurred in
investigating, preparing or defending against any claim whatsoever) to which
they may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, arising
from information furnished by or on behalf of such Holders, or their successors
or assigns, in writing, for specific inclusion in such registration statement to
the same extent and with the same effect as the provisions contained in Section
8 of the Underwriting Agreement pursuant to which the Underwriters have agreed
to indemnify the Company.
5
4.3.2 Exercise of Purchase
Warrants. Nothing contained in this Purchase Warrant shall be construed
as requiring the Holder(s) to exercise their Purchase Warrants prior to or after
the initial filing of any registration statement or the effectiveness
thereof.
4.3.3 Documents Delivered to
Holders. In the event of an underwritten public offering, the Company
shall furnish to each underwriter of any such offering a signed counterpart,
addressed to such underwriter, of: (i) an opinion of counsel to the Company,
dated the date of the closing under the underwriting agreement, and (ii) a “cold
comfort” letter dated the effective date of the registration statement with
respect to the underwritten public offering and a letter dated the date of the
closing under the underwriting agreement, signed by the independent public
accountants who have issued a report on the Company’s financial statements
included in such registration statement, in each case covering substantially the
same matters with respect to such registration statement (and the prospectus
included therein) and, in the case of such accountants’ letter, with respect to
events subsequent to the date of such financial statements, as are customarily
covered in opinions of issuer’s counsel and in accountants’ letters delivered to
underwriters in underwritten public offerings of securities. The Company shall
also deliver promptly to each Holder participating in the offering requesting
the correspondence and memoranda described below and to the managing
underwriter, if any, copies of all correspondence between the Commission and the
Company, its counsel or auditors and all memoranda relating to discussions with
the Commission or its staff with respect to the registration statement and
permit each Holder and underwriter to do such investigation, upon reasonable
advance notice, with respect to information contained in or omitted from the
registration statement as it deems reasonably necessary to comply with
applicable securities laws or rules of FINRA. Such investigation shall include
access to books, records and properties and opportunities to discuss the
business of the Company with its officers and independent auditors, all to such
extent and at such times as any such Holder shall request.
4.3.4 Underwriting
Agreement. The Company shall enter into an underwriting agreement with
the managing underwriter(s), if any, selected by any Holders whose Registrable
Securities are being registered pursuant to this Section 4, which managing
underwriter shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company. Such agreement
shall be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company, each
Holder and such managing underwriters, and shall contain such representations,
warranties and covenants by the Company and such other terms as are customarily
contained in agreements of that type used by the managing underwriter. The
Holders shall be parties to any underwriting agreement relating to an
underwritten sale of their Registrable Securities and may, at their option,
require that any or all the representations, warranties and covenants of the
Company to or for the benefit of such underwriters shall also be made to and for
the benefit of such Holders. Such Holders shall not be required to make any
representations or warranties to or agreements with the Company or the
underwriters except as they may relate to such Holders, their Units and their
intended methods of distribution.
6
4.3.5 Documents to be Delivered by
Xxxxxx(s). Each of the Holder(s) participating in any of the foregoing
offerings shall furnish to the Company a completed and executed questionnaire
provided by the Company requesting information customarily sought of selling
securityholders.
4.3.6 Damages. Should the
registration or the effectiveness thereof required by Sections 4.1 and 4.2
hereof be delayed by the Company or the Company otherwise fails to comply with
such provisions, the Holder(s) shall, in addition to any other legal or other
relief available to the Holder(s), be entitled to obtain specific performance or
other equitable (including injunctive) relief against the threatened breach of
such provisions or the continuation of any such breach, without the necessity of
proving actual damages and without the necessity of posting bond or other
security.

|
New Purchase Warrant
to be Issued.
|
5.1 Partial Exercise or
Transfer. Subject to the restrictions in Section 3 hereof, this Purchase
Warrant may be exercised or assigned in whole or in part. In the event of the
exercise or assignment hereof in part only, upon surrender of this Purchase
Warrant for cancellation, together with the duly executed exercise or assignment
form and funds sufficient to pay any Exercise Price and/or transfer tax if
exercised pursuant to Section 2.1 hereto, the Company shall cause to be
delivered to the Holder without charge a new Purchase Warrant of like tenor to
this Purchase Warrant in the name of the Holder evidencing the right of the
Holder to purchase the number of Units purchasable hereunder as to which this
Purchase Warrant has not been exercised or assigned.
5.2 Lost Certificate.
Upon receipt by the Company of evidence satisfactory to it of the loss, theft,
destruction or mutilation of this Purchase Warrant and of reasonably
satisfactory indemnification or the posting of a bond, the Company shall execute
and deliver a new Purchase Warrant of like tenor and date. Any such new Purchase
Warrant executed and delivered as a result of such loss, theft, mutilation or
destruction shall constitute a substitute contractual obligation on the part of
the Company.
|
6.
|
Adjustments.
|
6.1 Adjustments to Exercise
Price and Number of Securities. The Exercise Price and the number of
Shares underlying the Purchase Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time
to time as hereinafter set forth:
6.1.1 Stock Dividends; Split
Ups. If after the date hereof, and subject to the provisions of Section
6.3 below, the number of outstanding Shares of the Company is increased by a
stock dividend payable in Shares or by a split up of Shares or other similar
event, then, on the effective day thereof, the number of Shares of the Company
purchasable hereunder shall be increased in proportion to such increase in
outstanding Shares. In such case, the number of Shares, and the
exercise price applicable thereto, underlying the Warrants underlying each of
the Units purchasable hereunder shall be adjusted in accordance with the terms
of the Warrants.
7
6.1.2 Aggregation of
Shares. If after the date hereof, and subject to the provisions of
Section 6.3, the number of outstanding Shares is decreased by a consolidation,
combination or reclassification of Shares or other similar event, then, on the
effective date thereof, the number of Shares purchasable hereunder shall be
decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding Shares. In
such case, the number of Shares, and the exercise price applicable thereto,
underlying the Warrants underlying each of the Units purchasable hereunder shall
be adjusted in accordance with the terms of the Warrants.
6.1.3 Replacement of Securities
upon Reorganization, etc. In case of any reclassification or
reorganization of the outstanding Shares other than a change covered by Section
6.1.1 or 6.1.2 hereof or that solely affects the par value of such Shares, or in
the case of any share reconstruction or amalgamation or consolidation of the
Company with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or share
reconstruction or amalgamation in which the Company is the continuing
corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization
of the outstanding Shares), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another
corporation or entity of the property of the Company as an entirety or
substantially as an entirety in connection with which the Company is dissolved,
the Holder of this Purchase Warrant shall have the right thereafter (until the
expiration of the right of exercise of this Purchase Warrant) to receive upon
the exercise hereof, for the same aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder
immediately prior to such event, the kind and amount of shares of stock or other
securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification,
reorganization, share reconstruction or amalgamation, or consolidation, or upon
a dissolution following any such sale or transfer, by a Holder of the number of
Shares obtainable upon exercise of this Purchase Warrant immediately prior to
such event; and if any reclassification also results in a change in Shares
covered by Section 6.1.1 or 6.1.2, then such adjustment shall be made pursuant
to Sections 6.1.1, 6.1.2 and this Section 6.1.3. The provisions of this Section
6.1.3 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, reorganizations,
share reconstructions or amalgamations, or consolidations, sales or other
transfers.
6.1.4 Changes in Form of Purchase
Warrant. This form of Purchase Warrant need not be changed because of any
change pursuant to this Section, and any Purchase Warrant issued after such
change may state the same Exercise Price and the same number of Units as are
stated in any Purchase Warrant initially issued pursuant to this Agreement. The
acceptance by any Holder of the issuance of a new Purchase Warrant reflecting a
required or permissive change shall not be deemed to waive any rights to an
adjustment occurring after the Commencement Date or the computation
thereof.
6.2 Substitute Purchase
Warrant. In case of any consolidation of the Company with, or share
reconstruction or amalgamation of the Company with or into, another corporation
(other than a consolidation or share reconstruction or amalgamation which does
not result in any reclassification or change of the outstanding Shares), the
corporation formed by such consolidation or share reconstruction or amalgamation
shall execute and deliver to the Holder a supplemental Purchase Warrant
providing that the holder of each Purchase Warrant then outstanding or to be
outstanding shall have the right thereafter (until the stated expiration of such
Purchase Warrant) to receive, upon exercise of such Purchase Warrant, the kind
and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property receivable upon
such consolidation or share reconstruction or amalgamation, by a holder of the
number of Units for which such Purchase Warrant might have been exercised
immediately prior to such consolidation, share reconstruction or amalgamation,
sale or transfer. Such supplemental Purchase Warrant shall provide for
adjustments which shall be identical to the adjustments provided in Section 6.1.
The above provision of this Section shall similarly apply to successive
consolidations or share reconstructions or amalgamations.
8
6.3 Elimination of Fractional
Interests. The Company shall not be required to issue certificates
representing fractions of Units upon the exercise of this Purchase Warrant, nor
shall it be required to issue scrip or pay cash in lieu of any fractional
interests, it being the intent of the parties that all fractional interests
shall be eliminated by rounding any fraction up or down, as the case may be, to
the nearest whole number of Units or other securities, properties or
rights.
7. Reservation and
Listing. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of
its authorized Shares, solely for the purpose of issuance upon exercise of the
Purchase Warrants or any substitute Purchase Warrants issued pursuant to Section
6, such number of Units or other securities, properties or rights as shall be
issuable upon the exercise thereof. The Company covenants and agrees that, upon
exercise of the Purchase Warrants and payment of the Exercise Price therefor, in
accordance with the terms hereby, all Shares underlying the Units and the
Warrants and other securities issuable upon such exercise shall be duly and
validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and not subject to preemptive
rights of any stockholder. As long as the Purchase Warrants shall be
outstanding, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause all Shares issuable
upon exercise of the Purchase Warrants (including the Shares issuable upon
exercise of the Warrants underlying the Purchase Warrants) to be listed (subject
to official notice of issuance) on all securities exchanges (or, if applicable
on the Nasdaq Global Market, the Nasdaq Capital Market, the OTC Bulletin Board
or any successor trading market) on which the Shares issued to the public in the
Offering may then be listed and/or quoted.

|
Certain Notice
Requirements.
|
8.1 Holder’s Right to Receive
Notice. Nothing herein shall be construed as conferring upon the Holders
the right to vote or consent or to receive notice as a stockholder for the
election of directors or any other matter, or as having any rights whatsoever as
a stockholder of the Company. If, however, at any time prior to the expiration
of the Purchase Warrants and their exercise, any of the events described in
Section 8.2 shall occur, then, in one or more of said events, the Company shall
give written notice of such event at least fifteen days prior to the date fixed
as a record date or the date of closing the transfer books for the determination
of the stockholders entitled to such dividend, distribution, conversion or
exchange of securities or subscription rights, or entitled to vote on such
proposed dissolution, liquidation, winding up or sale. Such notice shall specify
