BRIDGE LOAN CREDIT AGREEMENT

           This BRIDGE LOAN CREDIT AGREEMENT is dated as of March 20, 2006 and entered into by and among FIRST LOOK STUDIOS, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”), the financial institutions who are or hereafter become parties to this Agreement as Lenders (each a “Lender” and, collectively, the “Lenders”), and PFLM, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (in its individual capacity, “Prentice”), as a Lender and as Agent (“Agent”).

R E C I T A L S:

           WHEREAS, prior to or simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement and the making of the Loans hereunder, Borrower, through a wholly owned subsidiary, is indirectly acquiring substantially all of the assets of Ventura Distribution, Inc. and certain affiliates thereof (collectively, “Ventura”) in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Acquisition Agreement;

           WHEREAS, Borrower desires that Lenders extend various term loans on a bridge basis to Borrower to fund a portion of the Acquisition Transaction and fees and expenses related thereto;

           WHEREAS, it is contemplated that the loans hereunder be repaid with (i) a portion of the net proceeds realized by FLE upon the collection of Ventura accounts receivable and sales of Ventura inventory acquired as part of the Acquisition Transaction and (ii) by third party financing as soon as it is available; and

           WHEREAS, all capitalized terms herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in Annex A hereto which is incorporated herein by reference.

           NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the agreements, provisions and covenants herein contained, Borrower, Lenders and Agent agree as follows:

SECTION 1.
AMOUNTS AND TERMS OF LOANS

           1.1. Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of Borrower contained herein:

                     (a) Loan.

                               (i) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, to lend to Borrower in a single drawing, on the Closing Date, its pro rata share of the aggregate amount of $17,000,000 (the “Loan”). Amounts borrowed under this Section 1.1(a) and repaid may not be reborrowed. At the request of the applicable Lender, such Lender’s Loans shall be evidenced by promissory notes (as amended, modified, extended, substituted or replaced from time, each a “Note” and, collectively, the “Notes”), and, Borrower shall execute and deliver each Note to the applicable Lender. Each Note shall represent the obligation of Borrower to pay the amount of the applicable Lender’s Commitment, together with interest thereon.

                               (ii) Borrower may prepay the Loan in whole or in part at any time without penalty or premium in accordance with Section 1.5(a).

                               (iii) The aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Loan shall be due and payable in full in immediately available funds on the Termination Date.

                               (iv) Each payment of principal with respect to the Loan shall be paid to Agent for the ratable benefit of each Lender making a Loan, ratably in proportion to each such Lender’s respective Commitment.

                               (v) The Commitments shall terminate at 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Closing Date.

                     (b) Funding Authorization. The proceeds of all Loans made pursuant to this Agreement are to be funded by Agent and Lender by wire transfer to the account specified in Exhibit 1.1(b) or such other place as Borrower may from time to time designate in writing.

           1.2. Interest.

                     (a) Borrower shall pay interest to Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders, with respect to the Loan made by each Lender, in arrears on the first Business Day of each month, at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum.

                     (b) If any payment on any Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof will be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.

                     (c) All computations of Fees calculated on a per annum basis and interest shall be made by Agent on the basis of a 365-day year, in each case for the actual number of days occurring in the period for which such Fees and interest are payable. Each determination by Agent of an interest rate and Fees hereunder shall be presumptive evidence of the correctness of such rates and Fees absent manifest error.

                     (d) So long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under Section 7.1 and without notice of any kind, or so long as any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and at the election of Agent (or upon the written request of Requisite Lenders) confirmed by written notice from Agent to Borrower, the interest rates applicable to the Loans shall be increased by four percentage points (4%) per annum above the rates of interest or the rate of such Fee otherwise applicable hereunder (the “Default Rate”), and the outstanding principal balance of the Loans shall bear interest at the Default Rate applicable to such Obligations. Interest at the Default Rate shall accrue from the initial date of such Event of Default until that Event of Default is cured or waived and shall be payable upon demand, but in any event, shall be payable on the next regularly scheduled payment date set forth herein for such Obligation.

                     (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 1.2, if a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final order that the rate of interest payable hereunder exceeds the highest rate of interest permissible under law (the “Maximum Lawful Rate”), then so long as the Maximum Lawful Rate would be so exceeded, the rate of interest payable hereunder shall be equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate; provided, however, that if at any time thereafter the rate of interest payable hereunder is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, Borrower shall continue to pay interest hereunder at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received by Agent, on behalf of Lenders, is equal to the total interest that would have been received had the interest rate payable hereunder been (but for the operation of this paragraph) the interest rate payable since the Closing Date as otherwise provided in this Agreement. Thereafter, interest hereunder shall be paid at the rate(s) of interest and in the manner provided in Sections 1.2(a) through (d), unless and until the rate of interest again exceeds the Maximum Lawful Rate, and at that time this paragraph shall again apply. In no event shall the total interest received by any Lender pursuant to the terms hereof exceed the amount that such Lender could lawfully have received had the interest due hereunder been calculated for the full term hereof at the Maximum Lawful Rate. If the Maximum Lawful Rate is calculated pursuant to this paragraph, such interest shall be calculated at a daily rate equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate divided by the number of days in the year in which such calculation is made. If, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 1.2(e), a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine by a final, non-appealable order that a Lender has received interest hereunder in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate, Agent shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, promptly apply such excess to any outstanding Obligations and thereafter shall refund any excess to Borrower or as such court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise order.

           1.3. Fees.

                     (a) Arrangement Fee. Borrower shall pay in cash to Agent an arrangement fee (the “Arrangement Fee”) in the amount of three hundred thousand Dollars ($300,000); such Arrangement Fee shall be payable in its entirety on the Closing Date.

                     (b) Expenses and Attorneys’ Fees. Borrower shall bear all of its own legal and professional fees and expenses. Borrower agrees to promptly pay all reasonable, out-of-pocket fees, charges, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by Agent in connection with any matters contemplated by or arising out of the Loan Documents, in connection with the examination, review, due diligence investigation, documentation, negotiation, closing and syndication of the transactions contemplated herein and in connection with the continued administration of the Loan Documents including any amendments, modifications, consents and waivers. Borrower agrees to promptly pay all reasonable, out-of-pocket fees, charges, costs and expenses (including reasonable fees, charges, costs and expenses of attorneys, auditors, appraisers, consultants and advisors) incurred by Agent in connection with any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to the Loan Documents, Event of Default, work-out or action to enforce Any Loan Document or to collect any payments due from Borrower. In addition, in connection with any work-out or action to enforce any Loan Document or to collect any payments due from Borrower, Borrower agrees to promptly pay all reasonable, out-of-pocket fees, charges, costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by Lenders. All fees, charges, costs and expenses for which Borrower is responsible under this Section 13(b) shall be deemed part of the Obligations when incurred, payable or in accordance with the final sentence of Section 1.4. Pursuant to this Section 13(b), Borrower shall pay a legal fee of two hundred fifty thousand dollars ($250,000) in connection with this transaction to Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx & Xxx LLP at the Closing.

           1.4. Payments. All payments by Borrower of the Obligations shall be without deduction, defense, setoff or counterclaim and shall be made in same day funds and delivered to Agent, for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, as applicable, by wire transfer to the account identified in Exhibit 1.4 (the “Payment Account”) or such other place as Agent may from time to time designate in writing. Borrower shall receive credit on the day of receipt for funds received by Agent by 2:00 p.m. (New York time). In the absence of timely receipt, such funds shall be deemed to have been paid on the next Business Day. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the amount of interest and Fees due hereunder.

           1.5. Prepayments.

                     (a) Voluntary Prepayment of Loans. At any time, Borrower may prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, without penalty or premium. Prepayments shall be applied: first, to all accrued but unpaid Agent expenses under Section 1.3(b); second, to all accrued but unpaid Lender expenses under Section 13(b); third, to all accrued and unpaid interest on the Loan; and fourth, to the outstanding principal of the Loan.

                     (b) Mandatory Prepayment Upon Take-Out Financing. Upon the earlier to occur of the following: (i) May 1, 2006, or (ii) a closing under the Take-Out Financing, Borrower shall make a payment to Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders in the aggregate amount of five million Dollars ($5,000,000).

                     (c) Additional Mandatory Prepayments. In addition to the payment provided for under Section 1.5(b), Borrower shall prepay the Loan in the following amounts:

(i) Fifty percent (50%) of the net proceeds realized from the collections of Ventura Accounts Receivable,

plus

(ii) Fifty percent (50%) of the net proceeds realized from the sale or other disposition of Ventura Inventory;

(hereinafter, the “Ventura Proceeds Sweep”); provided, however, Borrower, Agent and Lenders agree that the Ventura Proceeds Sweep shall not apply to the first one million dollars ($1,000,000) in the aggregate of cash proceeds realized from the Ventura Accounts Receivable and Ventura Inventory and in existence on the Closing Date (the “Ventura Sweep Threshold”), but such sweep shall nevertheless apply to any and all such proceeds (1) in excess of the Ventura Sweep Threshold and (2) realized by the Borrower at any time on or after the Closing Date until the Loans are repaid in full.

           1.6. Maturity. All of the Obligations shall become due and payable as otherwise set forth herein, but in any event all of the remaining Obligations shall become due and payable upon the Termination Date.

           1.7. Receipt of Payments. Borrower shall make each payment under this Agreement not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the day when due in immediately available funds in Dollars to the Payment Account. For purposes of computing interest and Fees as of any date, all payments shall be deemed received on the first Business Day following the Business Day on which immediately available funds therefor are received in the Payment Account prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York time). Payments received after 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on any Business Day or on a day that is not a Business Day shall be deemed to have been received on the following Business Day.

           1.8. Loan Accounts. Agent shall maintain a loan account (the “Loan Account”) on its books to record: the name and federal employer identification number of each Lender, all Loan(s), all payments made by Borrower, and all other debits and credits as provided in this Agreement with respect to the Loans or any other Obligations. All entries in the Loan Account shall be made in accordance with Agent’s customary accounting practices as in effect from time to time. The balance in the Loan Account, as recorded on Agent’s most recent printout or other written statement, shall, absent manifest error, be presumptive evidence of the amounts due and owing to Agent and Lenders by Borrower; provided that any failure to so record or any error in so recording shall not limit or otherwise affect (other than to the extent of such error) Borrower’s duty to pay the Obligations. Upun request by Borrower, Agent shall render to Borrower a monthly accounting of transactions with respect to the Loans setting forth the balance of the Loan Account for the immediately preceding month. Unless Borrower notifies Agent in writing of any objection to any such accounting (specifically describing the basis for such objection), within forty-five (45) days after the date thereof, each and every such accounting shall, absent manifest error, be presumptive evidence of all matters reflected therein. Only those items expressly objected to in such notice shall be deemed to be disputed by Borrower. Notwithstanding any provision herein contained to the contrary, any Lender may elect (which election may be revoked) to dispense with the issuance of Notes to that Lender and may rely on the Loan Account as evidence of the amount of Obligations from time to time owing to it.

           1.9. Capital Adequacy and Other Adjustments. In the event that any Lender shall have determined that the adoption after the date hereof of any law, treaty, govemmental (or quasi governmental) rule, regulation, guideline or order regarding capital adequacy, reserve requirements or similar requirements or compliance by any Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy, reserve requirements or similar requirements (whether or not having the force of law and whether or not failure to comply therewith would be unlawful) from any central bank or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction does or shall have the effect of increasing the amount of capital, reserves or other funds required to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender and thereby reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder, then Borrower shall from time to time within fifteen (15) days after notice and demand from such Lender (together with the certificate referred to in the next sentence and with a copy to Agent) pay to Agent, for the account of such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such reduction; provided that if the respective Lender has unreasonably delayed or withheld such notice and demand, the respective Lender shall not be entitled to receive additional payments pursuant to this Section 1.9 for periods occurring prior to the 180^th day before the receipt of such notice and demand. A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount of such cost and showing the basis of the computation of such cost submitted by such Lender to Borrower and Agent shall be presumptive evidence of the matters set forth therein.

           1.10. No Offset, etc. All payments by the Borrower hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and free and clear of and without deduction for any taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions, withholdings, compulsory loans, restrictions or conditions of any nature now or hereafter imposed or levied by any jurisdiction or any political subdivision thereof or taxing or other authority therein unless the Borrower is compelled by law to make such deduction or withholding. If any such obligation is imposed upon the Borrower with respect to any amount payable by it hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, the Borrower will pay to the Agent, for the account of the Lenders or (as the case may be) the Agent, on the date on which such amount is due and payable hereunder or under such other Loan Document, such additional amount in Dollars as shall be necessary to enable the Lenders or the Agent to receive the same net amount which the Lenders or the Agent would have received on such due date had no such obligation been imposed upon the Borrower (except for any amount deducted or withheld with respect to tax on the income of any Lender and/or Agent). The Borrower will deliver promptly to the Agent certificates or other valid vouchers for all taxes or other charges deducted from or paid with respect to payments made by the Borrower hereunder or under such other Loan Document. Each Lender and Agent shall reimburse Borrower upon its receipt of a refund from any Charging Authority in respect of a deduction or withholding by the Borrower paid to such Charging Authority and for which the Borrower made such Lender or Agent whole.

           1.11. Taxes.

                     (a) No Deductions; Other Taxes. Any and all payments or reimbursements made hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all Charges, present or future, taxes, levies, imposts, deductions or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto (including any interest, additions to tax or penalties applicable thereto) of any nature whatsoever imposed by any Governmental Authority (“Taxes”), excluding (a) such Taxes to the extent imposed on or measured by Agent’s or a Lender’s net income (and franchise taxes, branch profits taxes, taxes on doing business or other taxes imposed in lieu thereof) as a result of a connection between such Agent or Lender and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such Tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than any such connection that would not have arisen but for such Agent or Lender having executed, delivered, performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement or any other Loan Document) and (b) any United States federal withholding tax that is imposed on amounts payable to a Foreign Lender at the time such Foreign Lender becomes a party to this Agreement or is attributable to such Foreign Lender’s failure (other than as a result of a change in law, rule, regulation or treaty or in the administration, interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority) to comply with Section 1.11(c), except to the extent that such Foreign Lender’s assignor (if any) was entitled, at the time of assignment, to receive additional amounts from Borrower with respect to such withholding tax pursuant to this Section 1.11 (a) (collectively, “Excluded Taxes” and all such non-Excluded Taxes being referred to herein as “Non-Excluded Taxes”). If Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to any Lender or Agent, then the sum payable hereunder shall be increased as may be necessary so that, after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable pursuant to this Section 1.11), such Lender or Agent receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made. If any amounts are payable in respect of Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes pursuant to the preceding sentence, Borrower agrees to reimburse each Lender or Agent, upon the written request of such Lender or Agent and reasonable documentation of such amounts, for any net additional taxes imposed on or measured by the net income of such Lender or Agent and for any withholding of taxes as such Lender or Agent shall determine are payable in respect of such amounts so paid to or on behalf of such Lender or Agent pursuant to the preceding sentence and in respect of any amounts paid to or on behalf of such Lender or Agent pursuant to this sentence. All required deductions shall be withheld and timely paid over to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. In addition, Borrower agrees to timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or under any other Loan Document or from the execution, delivery, enforcement or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document (“Other Taxes”).

                     (b) Changes in Tax Laws. In the event that, after the date hereof (or in the case of an assignee or participant, the date of the relevant assignment or sale of a participation), (1) any changes in any existing law, regulation, treaty or directive or in the administration, interpretation or application thereof, (2) any new law, regulation, treaty or directive enacted or any administration, interpretation or application thereof, or (3) compliance with any request, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority:

                               (i) does or shall subject Agent or any Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, or any other Loan Documents or any Loans made hereunder, or change the basis of taxation of payments to Agent or such Lender in respect thereof (except for the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax); or

                               (ii) does or shall impose on Agent or any Lender any other condition, cost or expense in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or participations herein; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Agent or any such Lender of making or continuing any Loan hereunder, as the case may be, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder or under any other Loan Document, then, in any such case, Borrower shall promptly pay to Agent or such Lender, upon its demand with reasonable documentation thereof, any additional amounts necessary to compensate Agent or such Lender, on an after-tax basis, for such additional cost or reduced amount receivable, as reasonably determined by Agent or such Lender; provided that Agent or such Lender shall not be entitled to any such amounts to the extent that the event giving rise to such additional cost or reduced amount receivable occurred more than 180 days prior to the date such notice and demand is given to Borrower; provided, however, that if the event giving rise to such additional cost or reduced amount receivable has a retroactive effect, then such 180-day period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect. If Agent or such Lender becomes aware that it is entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 1.11(6), it shall promptly notify Borrower of the event by reason of which Agent or such Lender has become so entitled. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence submitted by Agent or such Lender to Borrower (with a copy to Agent if applicable) shall be presumptive evidence of the amount due, Borrower shall pay Agent or such Lender, as the case may he, the amount shown due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after the receipt thereof.

                     (c) Foreign Lenders. Prior to becoming a Lender under this Agreement and within fifteen (15) days after a reasonable written request of Borrower or Agent from time to time thereafter, each such Person or Lender that is not in each case a “United States person” (as such term is defined in IRC Section 7701(a)(30)) for U.S. federal income tax purposes (a “Foreign Lender”) shall provide to Borrower and Agent, if it is legally entitled to, a properly completed and executed IRS Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI or other applicable form, certificate or document prescribed by the IRS, certifying as to such Foreign Lender’s entitlement to an exemption from, or reduction in, United States withholding tax with respect to payments to be made to such Foreign Lender under this Agreement and under the Notes (a “Certificate of Exemption”).

                     (d) Indemnification. Borrower will indemnify each Lender and Agent for the full amount of Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 1.11) paid by such Lender or Agent, as the case may be, and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payments or liabilities submitted by Lender or Agent to Borrower (with a copy to Agent if applicable) shall be presumptive evidence of the amount due. Borrower shall pay Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after the receipt thereof.

                     (e) Evidencing of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes by Borrower to a Governmental Authority, Borrower shall deliver to the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.

                     (b) Nature of Duties. The duties of Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature. Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender. Nothing in this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, express or implied, is intended to or shall be construed to impose upon Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents except as expressly set forth herein or therein. Each Lender shall make its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of Borrower in connection with the extension of credit hereunder and shall make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of Borrower, and Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto (other than as expressly required herein).

Agent shall promptly notify each Lender any time that the Requisite Lenders have instructed Agent to act or refrain from acting pursuant hereto.

Agent shall not be liable for any apportionment or distribution of payments made by it in good faith and if any such apportionment or distribution is subsequently determined to have been made in error the sole recourse of any Lender to whom payment was due but not made, shall be to recover from other Lenders any payment in excess of the amount to which they are determined to be entitled (and such other Lenders hereby agree to return to such Lender any such erroneous payments received by them). In no event shall Agent be liable for punitive, special, consequential, incidental, exemplary or other similar damages. In performing its functions and duties hereunder, Agent shall exercise the same care which it would in dealing with loans for its own account, but neither Agent nor any of its respective agents or representatives shall be responsible to any Lender for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties herein or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectibility, or sufficiency of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby, or for the financial condition of Borrower. Agent shall not be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or the financial condition of Borrower, or the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default. Agent may at any time request instructions from Requisite Lenders or all affected Lenders with respect to any actions or approvals which by the terms of this Agreement or of any of the Loan Documents Agent is permitted or required to take or to grant. If such instructions are promptly requested, Agent shall be absolutely entitled to refrain from taking any action or to withhold any approval and shall not be under any liability whatsoever to any Person for refraining from any action or withholding any approval under any of the Loan Documents until it shall have received such instructions from the Requisite Lenders or such other portion of the Lenders as shall be prescribed by this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of Requisite Lenders or all affected Lenders, as applicable; and, notwithstanding the instructions of Requisite Lenders or all affected Lenders, as applicable, Agent shall have no obligation to take any action if it believes, in good faith, that such action is deemed to be illegal by Agent or exposes Agent to any liability for which it has not received satisfactory indemnification in accordance with Section 8.2(e).

                     (d) Reliance. Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any written or oral notices, statements, certificates, orders or other documents or any telephone message or other communication (including any writing, telex, fax or telegram) believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents and its duties hereunder or thereunder. Agent shall be entitled to rely upon the advice of legal counsel, independent accountants, and other experts selected by Agent in its sole discretion.

                     (e) Indemnification. Lenders will reimburse and indemnify Agent for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses), advances or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Agent in its capacity as such in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by Agent in its capacity as such under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, in proportion to each Lender’s pro rata share, but only to the extent that any of the foregoing is not reimbursed by Borrower; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, advances or disbursements to the extent resulting from Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable order by a court of competent jurisdiction. If any indemnity furnished to Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of Agent be insufficient or become impaired, Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against even if so directed by the Requisite Lenders or such other portion of the Lenders as shall be prescribed by this Agreement until such additional indemnity is furnished. The obligations of Lenders under this Section 8.2(e) shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

                               (i) Resignation. Agent may resign from the performance of all its agency functions and duties hereunder at any time by giving at least thirty (30) Business Days’ prior written notice to Borrower and Lenders. Such resignation shall take effect upon the acceptance by a successor Agent of appointment pursuant to clause (ii) below or as otherwise provided in clause (ii) below.

                               (ii) Appointment of Successor. Upon any such notice of resignation pursuant to clause (i) above, Requisite Lenders shall appoint a successor Agent which. unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, shall be subject to Borrower’s approval (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If a successor Agent shall not have been so appointed within the thirty (30) Business Day period referred to in clause i above, the retiring Agent, upon notice to Borrower, shall then appoint a successor Agent who shall serve as Agent until such time, if any, as Requisite Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided above.

                               (iii) Successor Agent. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent under the Loan Documents by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. After any retiring Agent’s resignation as Agent, the provisions of this Section 8.2 shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it in its capacity as Agent.

                     (h) Notice of Default. Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and Fees required to be paid to Agent for the account of Lenders, unless Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. Agent will use reasonable efforts to notify each Lender of its receipt of any such notice, unless such notice is with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees, in which case Agent will notify each Lender of its receipt of such notice. Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by requisite Lenders in accordance with Section 7. Unless and until Agent has received any such request, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interests of Lenders.

                     (i) Lender Actions. Each Lender agrees that it will not take any enforcement action, nor institute any actions or proceedings, with respect to the Loans, against Borrower hcreunder or under the other Loan Documents without the consent of the Agent or Requisite Lenders.

                     (j) Agent Reports. Each Lender may from time to time receive one or more reports or other information (each, a “Report”) prepared by or on behalf of Agent (or one or more of Agent’s Affiliates). With respect to each Report, each Lender hereby agrees that:

                               (i) Agent (and Agent’s Affiliates) shall have no duties or obligations in connection with or as a result of a Lender receiving a copy of a Report, which will be provided solely as a courtesy, without consideration. Each Lender will perform its own diligence and will make its own independent investigation of the operations, financial conditions and affairs of Borrower and will not rely on any Report or make any claim that it has done so.

Any repayment required pursuant to this Section 8.4 shall be without premium or penalty. Nothing in this Section 8.4 or elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, including the provisions of Section 8.5, shall be deemed to require Agent to advance funds on behalf of any Lender or to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that Agent or Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

This Warrant shall be exercisable at any time any and from time to time the date hereof and prior to the Expiration Date (the “Exercise Period”). This Warrant and the right to purchase Warrant Shares hereunder shall expire and become void on the Expiration Date.

           2.2 Manner of Exercise.

           (a) The Holder may exercise this Warrant at any time and from time to time during Exercise Period, in whole or in part (but not in denominations of fewer than 10,000 Warrant Shares, except upon an exercise of this Warrant with respect to the remaining balance of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder at the time of exercise), by delivering to the Escrow Agent pursuant to the Escrow Agreement (i) a duly executed Notice of Exercise in substantially the form attached as Appendix I hereto, (ii) the certificate representing the Warrants and (iii) a bank cashier’s or certified check for the aggregate Exercise Price of the Warrant Shares being purchased.

           (b) The Holder may, at its option, in lieu of paying for the Warrant Shares, exercise this Warrant by an exchange, in whole or in part (a “Warrant Exchange”), by delivery to the Escrow Agent of (i) a duly executed Notice of Exercise electing a Warrant Exchange and (ii) the certificate representing Warrant. In connection with any Warrant Exchange, the Holder shall he deemed to have paid for the Warrant Shares an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of each Warrant delivered, and the Warrants shall be deemed exercised for the amount so paid.

This Warrant shall not entitle the Holder to any voting or other rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to the shares represented by this Warrant only.

The Company shall deposit additional certificates for Warrant Shares upon request by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the Escrow Agreement.

           2.7 Adjustments to Exercise Price and Number of Securities.

                     (a) Computation of Adiusted Exercise Price. In case the Company shall at any time after the date hereof and until this Warrant is fully exercised issue or sell any shares of Common Stock (other than the issuances or sales referred to in Section 2.7(f) hereof), including shares held in the Company’s treasury and shares of Common Stock issued upon the exercise of any options, rights or warrants to subscribe for shares of Common Stock and shares of Common Stock issued upon the direct or indirect conversion or exchange of securities for shares of Common Stock (excluding shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of options, warrants or conversion rights granted as of the date hereof), for a consideration per share less than the Exercise Price on the date immediately prior to issuance or sale of such shares, or without consideration, then forthwith upon such issuance or sale, the Exercise Price shall (until another such issuance or sale) be reduced to the price equal to the quotient derived by dividing (A) an amount equal to the sum of (X) the product of (a) the Exercise Price on the date immediately prior to the issuance or sale of such shares, multiplied by (b) the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance or sale plus, (Y) the aggregate of the amount of all consideration, if any, received by the Company upon such sale, by (B) the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such issuance or sale; provided, however, that in no event shall the Exercise Price be adjusted pursuant to this computation to an amount in excess of the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such computation, except in the case of a combination of outstanding shares of Common Stock, as provided by Section 2.7(c) hereof.

           For the purposes of any computation to be made in accordance this Section 2.7(a) the following provisions shall be applicable:

           (i) In case of the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock for a consideration part or all of which shall be cash, the amount of cash consideration therefore shall be deemed to be the amount of cash received by the Company for such shares (or, if shares of Common Stock are offered by the Company for subscription, the subscription price, or if either of such securities shall be sold to underwriters or dealers for public offering without a subscription price, the initial public offering price) before deducting therefrom any compensation paid or discount allowed in the sale, underwriting or purchase thereof by underwriters or dealers or others performing similar services or any expenses in connection therewith.

           (ii) In case of the issuance or sale (otherwise than as a dividend or other distribution on any stock of the Company) of shares of Common Stock for a consideration part or all of which shall be other than cash, the amount of the consideration therefore other than cash shall be deemed to be the value of such consideration as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company.
           (iii) Shares of Common Stock issuable by way of dividend or other distribution on any stock of the Company shall be deemed to have been issued immediately after the opening of business on the day following the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or other distribution and shall be deemed to have been issued without consideration.
           (iv) The reclassification of securities of the Company other than shares of the Common Stock into securities including shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to involve the issuance of such shares of Common Stock for a consideration other than cash immediately prior to the close of the business on the date fixed for the determination of security holders entitled to receive such shares, and the value of the consideration allocable to such shares of Common Stock shall be determined as provided in subsection (ii) of this Section 2.7(a).
           (v) The number of shares of Common Stock at any one time outstanding shall include the aggregate number of shares issued or issuable (subject to readjustment upon the actual issuance thereof) upon the exercise of options, rights, warrants and upon the conversion or exchange of convertible or exchangeable securities; provided, however, that shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants shall not be included in such calculation.

                     (b) Options; Rights; Warrants and Convertible and Exchangeable Securities. In case the Company shall at any time after the date hereof and until this Warrant is fully exercised issue options, rights or warrants to subscribe for shares of Common Stock, or issue any securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock, for a consideration per share less than the Exercise Price immediately prior to the issuance of such options, rights or warrants (excluding shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of options, warrants or conversion rights granted as of the date hereof and shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of stock options at or above the closing market price per share of Common Stock under any stock option plan of the Company), or such convertible or exchangeable securities, or without consideration, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such options, rights or warrants, or such convertible or exchangeable securities, as the case may be, shall be reduced to a price determined by making a computation in accordance with the provision of Section 2.7(a) hereof, provided that:

           (i) The aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock, as the case may be, issuable under such options, rights or warrants shall be deemed to be issued, and for a consideration equal to the minimum purchase price per share provided for in such options, rights or warrants at the time of issuance plus the consideration (determined in the same manner as consideration received on the issue or sale of shares in accordance with the terms of the Warrants), if any, received by the Company for such options, rights or warrants and outstanding at the time such options, rights or warranties were issued,

           (ii) The aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exchange of any convertible or exchangeable securities shall be deemed to be issued and outstanding at the time of issuance of such securities, and for a consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the same manner as consideration received on the issue or sale of shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms of the Warrants) received by the Company for such securities, plus the minimum consideration, if any, receivable by the Company upon the conversation or exchange thereof,

           (iii) If any change shall occur in the price per share provided for in any of the options, rights or warrants referred to in subsection (a) of this Section 2.7, or in the price per share at which the securities referred to in subsection (b) of this Section 2.7 are convertible or exchangeable, such options, rights or warrants or conversion or exchange rights, as the case may be, shall be deemed to have expired or terminated on the date when such price change became effective in respect of shares not theretofore issued pursuant to the exercise or conversion or exchange thereof, and the Company shall be deemed to have issued upon such date new options, rights or warrants or convertible or exchangeable securities at the new price in respect of the number of such options, rights or warrants or the conversion or exchange of such convertible or exchangeable securities,

           (iv) If any options, rights or warrants referred to in subsection (a) of this Section 2.7, or any convertible or exchangeable securities referred to in subsection (b) of this Section 2.7, expire or terminate without exercise or conversion, as the case may be, then the Exercise Price of the remaining outstanding Warrant shall be readjusted as if such options, rights or warrants or convertible or exchangeable securities, as the case may be, had never been issued.

                     (c) Subdivision and Combination. In case the Company shall at any time subdivide or combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Exercise Price shall forthwith be proportionately decreased in the case of subdivision or increased in the case of combination.

                     (d) Adjustment in Number of Securities. Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.7, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of each Warrant shall be adjusted to nearest whole number by multiplying a number equal to the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the product so obtained by the adjusted Exercise Price.

                     (e) Merger or Consolidation. In case of any consolidation of the Company with, or merger of the Company with, or merger of the Company into, another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger which does not result in any reclassification or change of the outstanding Common Stock), the corporation formed by such consolidation or merger shall execute and deliver to the Holder a supplemental warrant agreement providing that the Holder of each Warrant then outstanding or to be outstanding shall have the right thereafter (until the expiration of such Warrant) to receive, upon exercise of such Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property (except in the event the property is cash, then the Holder shall have the right to exercise the Warrant and receive cash in the same manner as other stockholders) receivable upon such consolidation or merger, by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company for which such warrant might have been exercised immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer. Such supplemental warrant agreement shall provide for adjustments which shall be identical to the adjustments provided in Section 2.7. The foregoing provisions of this paragraph (e) shall similarly apply to successive consolidations or mergers.

                     (f) No Adjustment of Exercise Price in Certain Cases. No adjustments of the Exercise Price shall be made (i) upon the issuance of the Warrant Shares, (ii) upon the exercise of any options, rights, or warrants outstanding as of the date of the Loan Agreement, or (iii) shares of Common Stock pursuant to any employee benefit plan which has been approved by the Board of Directors of the Company, pursuant to which the Company’s securities may be issued to any employee, officer or director for services provided to the Company.

ANNEX A

EXERCISE PROCEDURES

                     1. At any time and from time to time during the term of the Warrant, Holder may deliver to the Escrow Agent written notice (a “Exercise Notice”) that it has elected to exercise in whole or in part the Warrant to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Company in accordance with the terms of the Warrant, and the Exercise Notice shall be in the form annexed as Exhibit A to the Warrant. A fee of U.S. $50.00, payable by the Holder, shall accompany every Exercise Notice delivered to the Escrow Agent.

                     2. The Holder shall send by fax or e-mail the executed Exercise Notice to the Escrow Agent (with a copy to the Company) by 4:00 p.m. New York time at least one (1) business day prior to the Exercise Date (as defined in the Warrant). The Escrow Agent shall send the Exercise Notice by facsimile or e-mail address to the Company by the end of the business day on the day received, assuming received by 6:00 p.m. New York time and if thereafter on the next business day, at the facsimile telephone number or email address, as the case may be, of the principal place of business of the Company. Each Exercise Notice price adjustment under Section 2.7 of the Warrant shall be given by facsimile addressed to the Holder of Warrant at the facsimile telephone number of such Holder appearing on the books of the Company as provided to the Company by such Holder for the purpose of such Exercise Notice price adjustment, with a copy to the Escrow Agent. Any such notice shall be deemed given and effective upon the transmission of such facsimile or email at the facsimile telephone number or e-mail address, as the case may be, specified in this paragraph 2 (with printed confirmation of transmission). In the event that the Escrow Agent receives the Exercise Notice after 4:00 p.m. New York time, the Exercise Notice shall be deemed to have been received on the next business day. In the event that the Company receives the Exercise Notice after the end of the business day, notice will be deemed to have been given the next business day.

                     3. The Company shall have one (1) business day from transmission of the Exercise Notice by the Escrow Agent to object only to the calculation of the number of Escrow Shares to be released. If the Company fails to object to the calculation of the number of Escrow Shares to be released within said time, then the Company shall be deemed to have waived any objections to said calculation. The Company’s only basis for any objection hereunder shall be to the calculation of the number of Escrow Shares to be released. If the Escrow Agent does not receive said objection notice within the time period set forth above from the Company, and provided that the Purchaser does not revoke such Exercise Notice, the Escrow Agent shall release from escrow and deliver to the Holder certificates or instruments representing the number of Escrow Shares issuable to the Holder in accordance with such Exercise Notice on the second business day from the receipt by the Company of the Exercise Notice. In the event that the certificates evidencing the Escrow Shares held by the Escrow Agent are not in denominations appropriate for such delivery to the Holder, the Escrow Agent shall request the Company to cause its transfer agent and registrar to reissue certificates in smaller denominations. The Escrow Agent shall, however, immediately release to the requesting Holder certificates representing such lesser number of shares as the denominations in its possession will allow that is closest to but no more than the actual number to be released to such Holder. Upon receipt of the reissued shares in lesser denominations from the Company’s transfer agent, the Escrow Agent shall release to such Holder the balance of the shares due to such Holder.

                     4. The Holder shall send the original Warrant and Exercise Notice to the Escrow Agent via FedEx or other commercial overnight courier, along with a fee of $50.00, instructions regarding names and amount of certificates for the issuance of the Escrow Shares, and, if the exercise is not in full, instructions as to the re-issuance of the balance of the Warrant; provided, however, that if the Escrow Agent is holding the Warrant, then the Exercise Notice may be faxed or e-mailed and the fee may be transmitted via wire transfer to the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall deliver the foregoing to the Company within one (1) business day of the Escrow Agent’s receipt thereof. In the event that the Escrow Agent has custody of the Warrant, the Escrow Agent shall notify the Company and the Holder in writing of the balance of the Warrant remaining and the Company and the Holder shall acknowledge such notice in writing, in lieu of issuance of a new Warrant for the balance.

                     5. If the Company will be issuing a new Warrant, it will send such new Warrant to the Escrow Agent by overnight courier within five (5) business days of its receipt of the original Warrant and Exercise Notice. The Escrow Agent shall send the required Escrow Shares to the Holder in accordance with Holder’s instructions within one (1) business day of receipt of the Exercise Notice and will send the new Warrant (if any) to the Holder upon receipt.

This Warrant shall be exercisable at any time any and from time to time the date hereof and prior to the Expiration Date (the “Exercise Period”).

                     (b) This Amended and Restated Warrant is intended to and shall be deemed to supercede and replace the warrant issued by the Company to the Holder upon the Closing of the Loan Agreement.

           2.2 Manner of Exercise.

           (a) The Holder may exercise this Warrant at any time and from time to time during Exercise Period, in whole or in part (but not in denominations of fewer than 10,000 Warrant Shares, except upon an exercise of this Warrant with respect to the remaining balance of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder at the time of exercise), by delivering to the Escrow Agent pursuant to the Escrow Agreement (i) a duly executed Notice of Exercise in substantially the form attached as Appendix I hereto, (ii) the certificate representing the Warrants and (iii) a bank cashier’s or certified check for the aggregate Exercise Price of the Warrant Shares being purchased.

The Company shall deposit additional certificates for Warrant Shares upon request by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the Escrow Agreement.

           2.7 Adjustments to Exercise Price and Number of Securities.

           For the purposes of any computation to be made in accordance this Section 2.7(a) the following provisions shall be applicable:

           (i) In case of the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock for a consideration part or all of which shall be cash, the amount of cash consideration therefore shall be deemed to be the amount of cash received by the Company for such shares (or, if shares of Common Stock are offered by the Company for subscription, the subscription price, or if either of such securities shall be sold to underwriters or dealers for public offering without a subscription price, the initial public offering price) before deducting therefrom any compensation paid or discount allowed in the sale, underwriting or purchase thereof by underwriters or dealers or others performing similar services or any expenses in connection therewith.

           (ii) In case of the issuance or sale (otherwise than as a dividend or other distribution on any stock of the Company) of shares of Common Stock for a consideration part or all of which shall be other than cash, the amount of the consideration therefore other than cash shall be deemed to be the value of such consideration as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company.
           (iii) Shares of Common Stock issuable by way of dividend or other distribution on any stock of the Company shall be deemed to have been issued immediately after the opening of business on the day following the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or other distribution and shall be deemed to have been issued without consideration.
           (iv) The reclassification of securities of the Company other than shares of the Common Stock into securities including shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to involve the issuance of such shares of Common Stock for a consideration other than cash immediately prior to the close of the business on the date fixed for the determination of security holders entitled to receive such shares, and the value of the consideration allocable to such shares of Common Stock shall be determined as provided in subsection (ii) of this Section 2.7(a).
           (v) The number of shares of Common Stock at any one time outstanding shall include the aggregate number of shares issued or issuable (subject to readjustment upon the actual issuance thereof) upon the exercise of options, rights, warrants and upon the conversion or exchange of convertible or exchangeable securities; provided, however, that shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants shall not be included in such calculation.

                     (b) Options; Rights; Warrants and Convertible and Exchangeable Securities. In case the Company shall at any time after the date hereof and until this Warrant is fully exercised issue options, rights or warrants to subscribe for shares of Common Stock, or issue any securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock, for a consideration per share less than the Exercise Price immediately prior to the issuance of such options, rights or warrants (excluding shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of options, warrants or conversion rights granted as of the date hereof and shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of stock options at or above the closing market price per share of Common Stock under any stock option plan of the Company), or such convertible or exchangeable securities, or without consideration, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such options, rights or warrants, or such convertible or exchangeable securities, as the case may be, shall be reduced to a price determined by making a computation in accordance with the provision of Section 2.7(a) hereof, provided that:

           (i) The aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock, as the case may be, issuable under such options, rights or warrants shall be deemed to be issued, and for a consideration equal to the minimum purchase price per share provided for in such options, rights or warrants at the time of issuance plus the consideration (determined in the same manner as consideration received on the issue or sale of shares in accordance with the terms of the Warrants), if any, received by the Company for such options, rights or warrants and outstanding at the time such options, rights or warranties were issued,

           (ii) The aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exchange of any convertible or exchangeable securities shall be deemed to be issued and outstanding at the time of issuance of such securities, and for a consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the same manner as consideration received on the issue or sale of shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms of the Warrants) received by the Company for such securities, plus the minimum consideration, if any, receivable by the Company upon the conversation or exchange thereof,

           (iii) If any change shall occur in the price per share provided for in any of the options, rights or warrants referred to in subsection (a) of this Section 2.7, or in the price per share at which the securities referred to in subsection (b) of this Section 2.7 are convertible or exchangeable, such options, rights or warrants or conversion or exchange rights, as the case may be, shall be deemed to have expired or terminated on the date when such price change became effective in respect of shares not theretofore issued pursuant to the exercise or conversion or exchange thereof, and the Company shall be deemed to have issued upon such date new options, rights or warrants or convertible or exchangeable securities at the new price in respect of the number of such options, rights or warrants or the conversion or exchange of such convertible or exchangeable securities,

           (iv) If any options, rights or warrants referred to in subsection (a) of this Section 2.7, or any convertible or exchangeable securities referred to in subsection (b) of this Section 2.7, expire or terminate without exercise or conversion, as the case may be, then the Exercise Price of the remaining outstanding Warrant shall be readjusted as if such options, rights or warrants or convertible or exchangeable securities, as the case may he, had never been issued.

                     (c) Subdivision and Combination. In case the Company shall at any time subdivide or combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Exercise Price shall forthwith be proportionately decreased in the case of subdivision or increased in the case of combination.

                     (d) Adjustment in Number of Securities. Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.7, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of each Warrant shall be adjusted to nearest whole number by multiplying a number equal to the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the product so obtained by the adjusted Exercise Price.

                     (e) Merger or Consolidation. In case of any consolidation of the Company with, or merger of the Company with, or merger of the Company into, another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger which does not result in any reclassification or change of the outstanding Common Stock), the corporation formed by such consolidation or merger shall execute and deliver to the Holder a supplemental warrant agreement providing that the Holder of each Warrant then outstanding or to be outstanding shall have the right thereafter (until the expiration of such Warrant) to receive, upon exercise of such Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property (except in the event the property is cash, then the Holder shall have the right to exercise the Warrant and receive cash in the same manner as other stockholders) receivable upon such consolidation or merger, by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company for which such warrant might have been exercised immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer. Such supplemental warrant agreement shall provide for adjustments which shall be identical to the adjustments provided in Section 2.7. The foregoing provisions of this paragraph (e) shall similarly apply to successive consolidations or mergers.

                     (f) No Adjustment of Exercise Price in Certain Cases. No adjustments of the Exercise Price shall be made (i) upon the issuance of the Warrant Shares, (ii) upon the exercise of any options, rights, or warrants outstanding as of the date of the Loan Agreement, or (iii) shares of Common Stock pursuant to any employee benefit plan which has been approved by the Board of Directors of the Company, pursuant to which the Company’s securities may be issued to any employee, officer or director for services provided to the Company.

At any time and from time to time during the term of the Warrant, Holder may deliver to the Escrow Agent written notice (a “Exercise Notice”) that it has elected to exercise in whole or in part the Warrant to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Company in accordance with the terms of the Warrant, and the Exercise Notice shall be in the form annexed as Exhibit A to the Warrant. A fee of U.S. $50.00, payable by the Holder, shall accompany every Exercise Notice delivered to the Escrow Agent.

           2. The Holder shall send by fax or e-mail the executed Exercise Notice to the Escrow Agent (with a copy to the Company) by 4:00 p.m. New York time at least one (1) business day prior to the Exercise Date (as defined in the Warrant). The Escrow Agent shall send the Exercise Notice by facsimile or e-mail address to the Company by the end of the business day on the day received, assuming received by 6:00 p.m. New York time and if thereafter on the next business day, at the facsimile telephone number or email address, as the case may be, of the principal place of business of the Company. Each Exercise Notice price adjustment under Section 2.7 of the Warrant shall be given by facsimile addressed to the Holder of Warrant at the facsimile telephone number of such Holder appearing on the books of the Company as provided to the Company by such Holder for the purpose of such Exercise Notice price adjustment, with a copy to the Escrow Agent. Any such notice shall be deemed given and effective upon the transmission of such facsimile or email at the facsimile telephone number or e-mail address, as the case may be, specified in this paragraph 2 (with printed confirmation of transmission). In the event that the Escrow Agent receives the Exercise Notice after 4:00 p.m. New York time, the Exercise Notice shall be deemed to have been received on the next business day. In the event that the Company receives the Exercise Notice after the end of the business day, notice will be deemed to have been given the next business day.

           3. The Company shall have one (1) business day from transmission of the Exercise Notice by the Escrow Agent to object only to the calculation of the number of Escrow Shares to be released. If the Company fails to object to the calculation of the number of Escrow Shares to be released within said time, then the Company shall be deemed to have waived any objections to said calculation. The Company’s only basis for any objection hereunder shall be to the calculation of the number of Escrow Shares to be released. If the Escrow Agent does not receive said objection notice within the time period set forth above from the Company, and provided that the Purchaser does not revoke such Exercise Notice, the Escrow Agent shall release from escrow and deliver to the Holder certificates or instruments representing the number of Escrow Shares issuable to the Holder in accordance with such Exercise Notice on the second business day from the receipt by the Company of the Exercise Notice. In the event that the certificates evidencing the Escrow Shares held by the Escrow Agent are not in denominations appropriate for such delivery to the Holder, the Escrow Agent shall request the Company to cause its transfer agent and registrar to reissue certificates in smaller denominations. The Escrow Agent shall, however, immediately release to the requesting Holder certificates representing such lesser number of shares as the denominations in its possession will allow that is closest to but no more than the actual number to be released to such Holder. Upon receipt of the reissued shares in lesser denominations from the Company’s transfer agent, the Escrow Agent shall release to such Holder the balance of the shares due to such Holder.

           4. The Holder shall send the original Warrant and Exercise Notice to the Escrow Agent via FedEx or other commercial overnight courier, along with a fee of $50.00, instructions regarding names and amount of certificates for the issuance of the Escrow Shares, and, if the exercise is not in full, instructions as to the re-issuance of the balance of the Warrant; provided, however, that if the Escrow Agent is holding the Warrant, then the Exercise Notice may be faxed or e-mailed and the fee may be transmitted via wire transfer to the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall deliver the foregoing to the Company within one (1) business day of the Escrow Agent’s receipt thereof. In the event that the Escrow Agent has custody of the Warrant, the Escrow Agent shall notify the Company and the Holder in writing of the balance of the Warrant remaining and the Company and the Holder shall acknowledge such notice in writing, in lieu of issuance of a new Warrant for the balance.

           5. If the Company will be issuing a new Warrant, it will send such new Warrant to the Escrow Agent by overnight courier within five (5) business days of its receipt of the original Warrant and Exercise Notice. The Escrow Agent shall send the required Escrow Shares to the Holder in accordance with Holder’s instructions within one (1) business day of receipt of the Exercise Notice and will send the new Warrant (if any) to the Holder upon receipt.

           6. The Escrow Agent agrees to notify the Company in writing by facsimile or email each time the Escrow Agent releases Escrow Shares to the Holder, such notice to be given at least one (1) business day prior to such release.

           7. Subject to the provisions of and any limitations set forth in the Loan Agreement or the Warrant, the Company agrees that, at any time the Exercise Price of the Warrant are such that the number of Escrow Shares with respect to the Warrant is less than two (2) times the number of shares of Common Stock that would be needed to satisfy full Exercise of all of the Warrant given the then current Exercise Price (the “Full Exercise Shares”), upon five (5) business days written notice of such circumstance to the Company by a Holder and/or Escrow Agent, it will issue additional share certificates, in the names of all Holders and deliver same to the Escrow Agent, such that the new number of Escrow Shares with respect to the Warrant is equal to two (2) times the Full Exercise Shares.

If at any time the Company does not have available such number of authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the issuance of all of the Escrow Shares, upon the exercise of the entire stated amount of the Warrant, the Company shall call and hold a special meeting of the stockholders within sixty (60) days of such occurrence, for the sole purpose of increasing the number of shares authorized.
