"IRR" means the discount rate that would make the present value of a stream of Payments (as defined below) and Receipts (as defined below) equal zero where:

"Qualifying Sale" means a sale of more than fifty percent (50%) of the Company's Common Stock on a fully diluted basis (assuming full conversion and exercise of all outstanding convertible, exchangeable and exercisable securities, including, without limitation, securities granted under any employee share option plan which have vested) for a purchase price per share at least equal to the 30% IRR Price, provided however, that in the event the purchase price for such securities is payable in marketable securities, such marketable securities shall be valued at the average of the daily closing prices of such marketable securities over the 180 consecutive trading days immediately preceding (and not including) the date such marketable securities are received, and provided further, that such purchase price is payable in full at the closing in cash or marketable securities.
1. Exercise of Warrant.
(a) At any time during the Exercise Period, this Warrant may be exercised by the
Holder hereof in full or in part at any time or from time to time by surrender of this Warrant
and the subscription form annexed hereto (duly executed by the Holder), to the Company, and
3NEXT PAGE
by making payment in cash or by certified check, wire transfer or any combination thereof, in
the amount obtained by multiplying (i) the number of shares of Common Stock designated by
the Holder in the subscription form by (ii) the Purchase Price then in effect. On any partial
exercise the Company will forthwith issue and deliver to or upon the order of the Holder
hereof a new Warrant of like tenor, in the name of the Holder hereof, providing in the
aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the purchase of the number of shares of Common
Stock for which such Warrant may still be exercised.
(b) At any time during the Exercise Period, in lieu of exercising this Warrant as provided above, the Holder may elect to receive, without the payment by the Holder of any additional consideration, shares of Common Stock equal to the value of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being canceled) by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with the subscription form attached hereto indicating such election, in which event the Company shall issue to the holder hereof a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula:
Y (A - B)
X = A
Where: | X = | The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Holder
pursuant to this net exercise; |
Y = | The number of shares of Common Stock designated by the Holder in the
subscription form; | |
A = | The then fair market value of one share of Common Stock as of the date
the election is made; | |
B = | The Purchase Price (as adjusted to the date of the election). |
For purposes of this Section 1(b), the fair market value of one share of Common Stock as of a particular date shall be determined as follows: (i) if traded on a securities exchange or through the Nasdaq National Market or SmallCap System, the value shall be deemed to be the lower of the average of the closing bid price of the securities on such exchange over the five (5) day period ending three (3) days prior to the net exercise election and the closing bid price of the securities on such exchange on the trading day ending three (3) days prior to the net exercise election; (ii) if traded over-the-counter, the value shall be deemed to be the lower of the average of the closing price over the five (5) day period ending three (3) days prior to the net exercise and the closing bid price on the trading day ending three (3) days prior to the net exercise election; and (iii) if there is no active public market, the value shall be the fair market value thereof, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company.
2. Delivery of Stock Certificates, etc., on Exercise. As soon as practicable after the
exercise of this Warrant, the Company will cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to
the Holder hereof a certificate for the number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of
Common Stock (or Other Securities) to which the Holder shall be entitled on such exercise,
plus, in lieu of any fractional share to which the Holder
4NEXT PAGE
would otherwise be entitled, cash
equal to such fraction multiplied by the then current fair market value as determined pursuant
to Section 1(b) above of one full share, together with any other stock or other securities or
property (including cash, where applicable) to which the Holder is entitled upon such
exercise. "Other Securities" shall mean any stock (other than Common Stock) and other
securities of the Company or any other person (corporate or otherwise) which the Holder at
any time shall be entitled to receive, or shall have received, on the exercise of this Warrant, in
lieu of or in addition to Common Stock, or which at any time shall be issuable or shall have
been issued in exchange for or in replacement of Common Stock or Other Securities pursuant
to Section 3.
The Holder shall be deemed to become the holder of, and shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of, the Common Stock represented by such certificate, and such Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued, immediately prior to the close of business on the date on which this Warrant and notice of exercise are presented and payment made for such Common Stock, notwithstanding that the stock transfer books of the Company shall then be closed or that such certificates shall not then be actually delivered to the Holder.
The issuance of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issuance tax with respect thereto or any other cost incurred by the Company in connection with the exercise of this Warrant and the related issuance of Common Stock. The Company shall pay all expenses in connection with, and all taxes (other than stock transfer, income, capital gain or similar taxes) and other governmental charges that may be imposed in respect of, the issuance, sale and delivery of the Warrant and the related Common Stock to the Holder.
3. Adjustment
(a) Initial Purchase Price; Subsequent Adjustment of Price and Number of Purchasable Shares. The Initial Purchase Price will be adjusted from time to time as provided below; provided that, as set forth in and subject to Section 4, in no event shall the Purchase Price per share be adjusted to a price which is less than the par value of the Common Stock at such time. Upon each adjustment of the Purchase Price, the Holder will thereafter be entitled to purchase, at the Purchase Price resulting from such adjustment, the number of shares of Common Stock obtained by multiplying the Purchase Price in effect immediately before such adjustment by the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable pursuant to this Warrant immediately before such adjustment and dividing the product by the Purchase Price resulting from such adjustment.
(b) Adjustment for Stock Splits and Combinations. If the Company at any time or from time to time after the date of this Warrant effects a subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock, by stock split or otherwise, the Purchase Price then in effect immediately before that subdivision shall be proportionately decreased; and, conversely, if the Company at any time or from time to time after the date of this Warrant combines the outstanding shares of Common Stock, by reverse stock split or otherwise, the Purchase Price then in effect immediately before that combination shall be proportionately increased. Any adjustment under this Section 3(b) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.
5NEXT PAGE
(c) Adjustment for Certain Dividends and Distributions. In the event the Company at any time or from time to time after the date of this Warrant either makes, or fixes a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of Common Stock, then and in each such event the Purchase Price then in effect shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such a record date is fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Purchase Price then in effect by a fraction (1) the numerator of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance on the close of business on such record date, and (2) the denominator of which shall be (i) the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date plus (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution; provided, however, that if such record date is fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, the Purchase Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date or date fixed therefor and thereafter the Purchase Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this Section 3(c) as of the time of actual payment of such dividend or distribution. For purposes of the foregoing formula, "the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding" on a particular date shall include shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of stock or securities convertible into Common Stock and the exercise of warrants, options or rights for the purchase of Common Stock (or stock or securities convertible into Common Stock) which are outstanding on such date.
(d) Adjustments for Other Dividends and Distributions. In the event the Company at any time or from time to time after the date of this Warrant makes, or fixes a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in securities of the Company other than shares of Common Stock, then and in each such event, provision shall be made so that the Holder shall receive upon exercise hereof, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable thereupon, the amount of securities of the Company which it would have received had this Warrant been converted into Common Stock as of the date of such event and had it thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the date of exercise, retained such securities receivable by it as aforesaid during such period, subject to all other adjustments called for during such period under this Section 3 with respect to the rights of the Holder.
(e) Adjustment for Recapitalization, Reclassification, or Exchange. If the Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant is changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of stock of the Company, whether by recapitalization, reclassification or other exchange (other than a subdivision or combination of shares, or a stock dividend or a reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale of assets, provided for elsewhere in this Section 3), then and in any such event the Holder shall have the right thereafter to exercise this Warrant to purchase the kind and amount of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such recapitalization, reclassification or other exchange by holders of the number of shares of Common Stock which might have been purchased under this Warrant immediately prior to such recapitalization, reclassification or other exchange, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.
6NEXT PAGE
(f) Reorganizations, Mergers, Consolidations or Sales of Assets. If at any time or from time to time there is a capital reorganization of the Common Stock (other than a subdivision or combination of shares or a stock dividend or a recapitalization, reclassification or other exchange of shares, provided for elsewhere in this Section 3) or a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets to any other person, then, as a part of such capital reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale, provision shall be made so that the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Company, or of the successor corporation resulting from such capital reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale, to which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon such exercise would have been entitled on such capital reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 3 with respect to the rights of the Holder after the capital reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale to the end that the provisions of this Section 3 (including the number of shares deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall continue to be applicable after that event and shall be as nearly equivalent to the provisions hereof as may be practicable.
(g) Certificate of Adjustment. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Purchase Price and/or the number of shares of Common Stock subject to this Warrant, the Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof, and shall prepare and furnish to the Holder a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based.
4. Further Assurances. The Company will take all action that may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of stock, free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof, on the exercise of all or any portion of this Warrant from time to time outstanding. Subject to Section 13 herein, the Company will not, by amendment of its organizational documents or through any reorganization, corporate recapitalization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issuance or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder under this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will not take any action which would result in the par value of Common Stock exceeding the Purchase Price.
5. Notices of Record Date, etc. In the event of:
(a) any taking by the Company of a record of the holders of any class of securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend on, or any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right (other than in connection with the Reverse Stock Split (as defined below)), or
7NEXT PAGE
(b) any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company (other than in connection with the Reverse Stock Split (as defined below)) or any transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to or the sale, consolidation or merger of the Company with, to or into any other person, or
(c) any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company;
then and in each such event the Company will mail or cause to be sent to the Holder, at least thirty (30) business days prior to such record date, a notice specifying (i) the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, and stating the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right, (ii) the date on which any such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, transfer, consolidation, merger, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is to take place, and the time, if any is to be fixed, as of which the holders of record of Common Stock (or Other Securities) shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) for securities or other property deliverable on such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, transfer, consolidation, merger, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, and (iii) the amount and character of any stock or other securities, or rights or options with respect thereto, proposed to be issued or granted, the date of such proposed issue or grant and the persons or class of persons to whom such proposed issue or grant is to be offered or made. Such notice shall also state that the action in question or the record date is subject to the effectiveness of a registration statement under the Securities Act or a favorable vote of stockholders if either is required. The Holder shall use its best efforts to decide whether to exercise this Warrant (if this Warrant is exercisable at such time) within ten (10) days of its receipt of such notice.
6. Register; Replacement. The Company shall keep at its principal executive office a register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, it shall provide for the registration, transfer and exchange of this Warrant. The Company and any Company agent may treat the person in whose name this Warrant is registered as the owner of this Warrant for all purposes whatsoever, and neither the Company nor any Company agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and (i) in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon delivery of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Company in form and amount or (ii) in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender of such Warrant for cancellation at the principal executive office, the Company, at its expense, shall promptly execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.
All warrants issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of this Warrant shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same rights, and entitled to the same benefits, as the Warrant surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. Except as provided above, no service or other charge shall be imposed on the Holder for any exchange of this Warrant.
8NEXT PAGE
7. Reservation of Stock, etc., Issuable on Exercise of Warrants. The Company will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of capital stock, solely for issuance and delivery on the exercise of this Warrant, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) to effect the full exercise of this Warrant and the exercise, conversion or exchange of any other warrant or security of the Company exercisable for, convertible into, exchangeable for or otherwise entitling the Holder to acquire shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities), and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) shall not be sufficient to effect such exercise, conversion or exchange, the Company shall take such action as may be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) to such number as shall be sufficient for such purposes.
8. Transfer of Warrant. This Warrant cannot be transferred in whole or in part unless: (i) such transfer is to a Permitted Transferee as such term is defined in that certain Stockholders Agreement dated as of October 25, 2002 among the Company, the Holder and the other parties named therein (the "Stockholders Agreement"), (ii) such Permitted Transferee agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Stockholders Agreement, (iii) such transfer is made in connection with a concurrent transfer to the Permitted Transferee of a proportional amount of the Holder's shares of Series 4-A Convertible Preferred Stock or Common Stock issued upon conversion of those shares, provided, that if the Holder on any occasion does not transfer, in connection with a partial transfer of its Series 4-A Convertible Preferred Stock or Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Series 4-A Convertible Preferred Stock, the full portion of the Warrant that such Holder would be entitled to transfer at that time (the "Untransferred Portion"), the Holder shall have the right to transfer, in any subsequent transfer by such Holder of its Series 4-A Convertible Preferred Stock or Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Series 4-A Convertible Preferred Stock, the Untransferred Portion in addition to whatever portion of Warrants such Holder would otherwise be entitled to transfer in accordance with this subsection (iii) and (iv) such transfer complies with all applicable securities laws.
9. No Rights as a Stockholder. This Warrant shall not entitle the Holder hereof to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company.
10. Notices, etc. All notices which are required to be given pursuant to this Warrant shall be in writing and shall be delivered by certified mail, return receipt requested, first class or air mail postage prepaid, or sent by overnight express or similarly recognized overnight delivery with receipt acknowledged or by facsimile, with a copy thereof sent by one of the other means. Notices shall be deemed to have been given at the time delivered and shall be addressed as follows or to such other address as a party may designate by proper notice hereunder.

11. Securities Laws. By acceptance of this Warrant, the Holder represents to the Company that the Holder is "accredited investor" within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D adopted under the Securities Act, as presently in effect, or not a "U.S. person" within the meaning of Rule 902 adopted under the Securities Act and is acquiring the Securities in an "offshore transaction" as defined in Rule 902, that this Warrant is being acquired for the Holder's own account and for the purpose of investment and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, the distribution thereof, nor with any present intention of distributing or selling the Warrant or the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant, and that it is an investor in securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges that it can bear the economic risk of its investment and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the shares subject to this Warrant. The Holder acknowledges and agrees that this Warrant and the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (if any) have not been (and at the time of acquisition by the Holder, will not have been or will not be) registered under the Securities Act or under the securities laws of any state, in reliance upon certain exemptive provisions of such statutes. The Holder further recognizes and acknowledges that because this Warrant and the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are unregistered, they may not be eligible for resale, and may only be resold in the future pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws, or pursuant to a valid exemption from such registration requirements and that the Holder may, therefore, be required to bear the economic risk of such investment indefinitely.
12. Legend. Unless theretofore registered for resale under the Securities Act, each certificate for shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall bear the following or a similar legend, in addition to any other legends required by any agreements entered into by the Company and the Holder:
"THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF A REGISTRATION STATEMENT IN EFFECT WITH RESPECT TO THE SECURITIES UNDER SUCH ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OF SUCH ACT."
13. Cancellation and Issuance of New Warrant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Warrant shall be deemed automatically cancelled if the Company completes a reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding Common Stock at an exchange ratio of twenty to one (the "Reverse Stock Split") by filing a Certificate of Amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to effect the Reverse Stock Split (the "Reverse Stock Split Completion Date").
11NEXT PAGE
Promptly after the Reverse Stock Split Completion Date, the Company shall send a notice of such event to the Holder, and upon receipt of such notice, the Holder shall thereafter promptly deliver the original, executed copy of this Warrant to the Company for cancellation. Upon the Company's receipt of the original, executed copy of this Warrant and in exchange therefor, the Company will cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to the Holder hereof the warrant attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "New Warrant"). The issuance and delivery of the New Warrant shall constitute full and complete consideration for the cancellation of this Warrant.
For the avoidance of doubt, the number of shares of Common Stock and per share purchase price set forth on the first page of the New Warrant shall not be adjusted as a result of the Reverse Stock Split.
The Holder shall be deemed to become the holder of, and shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of, the New Warrant, and such New Warrant shall be deemed to have been issued, immediately upon the Reverse Stock Split Completion Date, notwithstanding that the stock transfer books of the Company shall then be closed or that the New Warrant shall not then be actually delivered to the Holder.
The issuance of the New Warrant shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issuance tax with respect thereto or any other cost incurred by the Company in connection with the issuance of the New Warrant.
14. Miscellaneous. This Warrant and any terms hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which enforcement of such change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought. If, in any action before any court or agency legally empowered to enforce any term, any term is found to be unenforceable, then such term shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to make it enforceable by such court or agency, and if any term is not so curable, the unenforceability of such term shall not affect the other provisions of this Warrant but this Warrant shall be constructed as if such unenforceable term had never been contained herein. This Warrant shall be construed and enforced in accordance with and governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflict of laws principles. The headings in this Warrant are for purposes of reference only, and shall not limit or otherwise affect any of the terms hereof. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision.

This Warrant has been issued in exchange for the cancellation of the prior warrant granted by the Company to the Holder dated October 25, 2002.
The Exercise Period shall commence on April 1, 2005 at 9:00 a.m., Hong Kong time, and end on March 30, 2006 at 5:00 p.m., Hong Kong time, but notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Warrant shall only be exercisable during the Exercise Period if neither of the following has occurred: (i) the Company's consolidated Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below) during any four consecutive fiscal quarters beginning with the fiscal quarter ended October 31, 2002 up to and including the fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2004 equaled or exceeded U.S.$10 million, as shown in the Company's audited financial statements for such period which shall be delivered to the Holder by April 30, 2004, or (ii) the Liquidity Date (as defined below) has occurred prior to January 31, 2005.

18NEXT PAGE
(iii) the first date in the measurement of the present value will be October 25, 2002 and the last date will be the Liquidity Date.
"Qualifying Sale" means a sale of more than fifty percent (50%) of the Company's Common Stock on a fully diluted basis (assuming full conversion and exercise of all outstanding convertible, exchangeable and exercisable securities, including, without limitation, securities granted under any employee share option plan which have vested) for a purchase price per share at least equal to the 30% IRR Price, provided however, that in the event the purchase price for such securities is payable in marketable securities, such marketable securities shall be valued at the average of the daily closing prices of such marketable securities over the 180 consecutive trading days immediately preceding (and not including) the date such marketable securities are received, and provided further, that such purchase price is payable in full at the closing in cash or marketable securities.
1. Exercise of Warrant.
(a) At any time during the Exercise Period, this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder hereof in full or in part at any time or from time to time by surrender of this Warrant and the subscription form annexed hereto (duly executed by the Holder), to the Company, and by making payment in cash or by certified check, wire transfer or any combination thereof, in the amount obtained by multiplying (i) the number of shares of Common Stock designated by the Holder in the subscription form by (ii) the Purchase Price then in effect. On any partial exercise the Company will forthwith issue and deliver to or upon the order of the Holder hereof a new Warrant of like tenor, in the name of the Holder hereof, providing in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the purchase of the number of shares of Common Stock for which such Warrant may still be exercised.
(b) At any time during the Exercise Period, in lieu of exercising this Warrant as provided above, the Holder may elect to receive, without the payment by the Holder of any additional consideration, shares of Common Stock equal to the value of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being canceled) by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with the subscription form attached hereto indicating such election, in which event the Company shall issue to the holder hereof a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula:
Y (A - B)
X = A
Where: | X = | The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Holder
pursuant to this net exercise; |
Y = | The number of shares of Common Stock designated by the Holder in the
subscription form; | |
A = | The then fair market value of one share of Common Stock as of the date
the election is made; | |
B = | The Purchase Price (as adjusted to the date of the election). |
19NEXT PAGE
For purposes of this Section 1(b), the fair market value of one share of Common Stock as of a particular date shall be determined as follows: (i) if traded on a securities exchange or through the Nasdaq National Market or SmallCap System, the value shall be deemed to be the lower of the average of the closing bid price of the securities on such exchange over the five (5) day period ending three (3) days prior to the net exercise election and the closing bid price of the securities on such exchange on the trading day ending three (3) days prior to the net exercise election; (ii) if traded over-the-counter, the value shall be deemed to be the lower of the average of the closing price over the five (5) day period ending three (3) days prior to the net exercise and the closing bid price on the trading day ending three (3) days prior to the net exercise election; and (iii) if there is no active public market, the value shall be the fair market value thereof, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company.
2. Delivery of Stock Certificates, etc., on Exercise. As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant, the Company will cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to the Holder hereof a certificate for the number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) to which the Holder shall be entitled on such exercise, plus, in lieu of any fractional share to which the Holder would otherwise be entitled, cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the then current fair market value as determined pursuant to Section 1(b) above of one full share, together with any other stock or other securities or property (including cash, where applicable) to which the Holder is entitled upon such exercise. "Other Securities" shall mean any stock (other than Common Stock) and other securities of the Company or any other person (corporate or otherwise) which the Holder at any time shall be entitled to receive, or shall have received, on the exercise of this Warrant, in lieu of or in addition to Common Stock, or which at any time shall be issuable or shall have been issued in exchange for or in replacement of Common Stock or Other Securities pursuant to Section 3.
The Holder shall be deemed to become the holder of, and shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of, the Common Stock represented by such certificate, and such Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued, immediately prior to the close of business on the date on which this Warrant and notice of exercise are presented and payment made for such Common Stock, notwithstanding that the stock transfer books of the Company shall then be closed or that such certificates shall not then be actually delivered to the Holder.
The issuance of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issuance tax with respect thereto or any other cost incurred by the Company in connection with the exercise of this Warrant and the related issuance of Common Stock. The Company shall pay all expenses in connection with, and all taxes (other than stock transfer, income, capital gain or similar taxes) and other governmental charges that may be imposed in respect of, the issuance, sale and delivery of the Warrant and the related Common Stock to the Holder.
3. Adjustment.
(a) Initial Purchase Price;
Subsequent Adjustment of Price and
Number of Purchasable Shares. The Initial
Purchase Price will be adjusted from time
to time as provided below; provided that, as
set forth in and subject to Section 4, in no
event shall the Purchase Price per
20NEXT PAGE
share be
adjusted to a price which is less than the
par value of the Common Stock at such
time. Upon each adjustment of the
Purchase Price, the Holder will thereafter
be entitled to purchase, at the Purchase
Price resulting from such adjustment, the
number of shares of Common Stock
obtained by multiplying the Purchase Price
in effect immediately before such
adjustment by the number of shares of
Common Stock purchasable pursuant to
this Warrant immediately before such
adjustment and dividing the product by the
Purchase Price resulting from such
adjustment.
(b) Adjustment for Stock Splits and Combinations. If the Company at any time or from time to time after the date of this Warrant effects a subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock, by stock split or otherwise, the Purchase Price then in effect immediately before that subdivision shall be proportionately decreased; and, conversely, if the Company at any time or from time to time after the date of this Warrant combines the outstanding shares of Common Stock, by reverse stock split or otherwise, the Purchase Price then in effect immediately before that combination shall be proportionately increased. Any adjustment under this Section 3(b) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.
(c) Adjustment for Certain Dividends and Distributions. In the event the Company at any time or from time to time after the date of this Warrant either makes, or fixes a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of Common Stock, then and in each such event the Purchase Price then in effect shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such a record date is fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Purchase Price then in effect by a fraction (1) the numerator of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance on the close of business on such record date, and (2) the denominator of which shall be (i) the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date plus (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution; provided, however, that if such record date is fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, the Purchase Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date or date fixed therefor and thereafter the Purchase Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this Section 3(c) as of the time of actual payment of such dividend or distribution. For purposes of the foregoing formula, "the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding" on a particular date shall include shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of stock or securities convertible into Common Stock and the exercise of warrants, options or rights for the purchase of Common Stock (or stock or securities convertible into Common Stock) which are outstanding on such date.
(d) Adjustments for Other
Dividends and Distributions. In the event
the Company at any time or from time to
time after the date of this Warrant makes,
or fixes a record date for the determination
of holders of Common Stock entitled to
receive, a dividend or other distribution
payable in securities of the Company other
than shares of Common Stock, then and in
each such event, provision shall be made so
that the
21NEXT PAGE
Holder shall receive upon exercise
hereof, in addition to the number of shares
of Common Stock receivable thereupon,
the amount of securities of the Company
which it would have received had this
Warrant been converted into Common
Stock as of the date of such event and had
it thereafter, during the period from the
date of such event to and including the date
of exercise, retained such securities
receivable by it as aforesaid during such
period, subject to all other adjustments
called for during such period under this
Section 3 with respect to the rights of the
Holder.
(e) Adjustment for Recapitalization, Reclassification, or Exchange. If the Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant is changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of stock of the Company, whether by recapitalization, reclassification or other exchange (other than a subdivision or combination of shares, or a stock dividend or a reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale of assets, provided for elsewhere in this Section 3), then and in any such event the Holder shall have the right thereafter to exercise this Warrant to purchase the kind and amount of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such recapitalization, reclassification or other exchange by holders of the number of shares of Common Stock which might have been purchased under this Warrant immediately prior to such recapitalization, reclassification or other exchange, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.
(f) Reorganizations, Mergers, Consolidations or Sales of Assets. If at any time or from time to time there is a capital reorganization of the Common Stock (other than a subdivision or combination of shares or a stock dividend or a recapitalization, reclassification or other exchange of shares, provided for elsewhere in this Section 3) or a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets to any other person, then, as a part of such capital reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale, provision shall be made so that the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Company, or of the successor corporation resulting from such capital reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale, to which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon such exercise would have been entitled on such capital reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 3 with respect to the rights of the Holder after the capital reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale to the end that the provisions of this Section 3 (including the number of shares deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall continue to be applicable after that event and shall be as nearly equivalent to the provisions hereof as may be practicable.
(g) Certificate of Adjustment. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Purchase Price and/or the number of shares of Common Stock subject to this Warrant, the Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof, and shall prepare and furnish to the Holder a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based.
4. Further Assurances. The
Company will take all action that may be
necessary or appropriate in order that the
Company may validly and legally issue
fully paid and nonassessable shares of
stock, free from all taxes, liens and charges
with respect to the issue thereof, on the
22NEXT PAGE
exercise of all or any portion of this
Warrant from time to time outstanding.
The Company will not, by amendment of
its organizational documents or through
any reorganization, corporate
recapitalization, transfer of assets,
consolidation, merger, dissolution, issuance
or sale of securities or any other voluntary
action, avoid or seek to avoid the
observance or performance of any of the
terms of this Warrant, but will at all times
in good faith assist in the carrying out of all
such terms and in the taking of all such
action as may be necessary or appropriate
in order to protect the rights of the Holder
under this Warrant against impairment.
Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Company will not take any
action which would result in the par value
of Common Stock exceeding the Purchase
Price.
5. Notices of Record Date, etc. In the event of:
(a) any taking by the Company of a record of the holders of any class of securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend on, or any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, or
(b) any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company or any transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to or the sale, consolidation or merger of the Company with, to or into any other person, or
(c) any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company;
then and in each such event the Company will mail or cause to be sent to the Holder, at least thirty (30) business days prior to such record date, a notice specifying (i) the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, and stating the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right, (ii) the date on which any such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, transfer, consolidation, merger, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is to take place, and the time, if any is to be fixed, as of which the holders of record of Common Stock (or Other Securities) shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) for securities or other property deliverable on such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, transfer, consolidation, merger, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, and (iii) the amount and character of any stock or other securities, or rights or options with respect thereto, proposed to be issued or granted, the date of such proposed issue or grant and the persons or class of persons to whom such proposed issue or grant is to be offered or made. Such notice shall also state that the action in question or the record date is subject to the effectiveness of a registration statement under the Securities Act or a favorable vote of stockholders if either is required. The Holder shall use its best efforts to decide whether to exercise this Warrant (if this Warrant is exercisable at such time) within ten (10) days of its receipt of such notice.
6. Register; Replacement. The Company shall keep at its principal executive office a register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, it shall provide for the registration, transfer and exchange of this Warrant. The Company and any Company agent may treat the person in whose name this Warrant is registered as the owner of this Warrant for all purposes whatsoever, and neither the Company nor any Company agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

All warrants issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of this Warrant shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same rights, and entitled to the same benefits, as the Warrant surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. Except as provided above, no service or other charge shall be imposed on the Holder for any exchange of this Warrant.
7. Reservation of Stock, etc., Issuable on Exercise of Warrants. The Company will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of capital stock, solely for issuance and delivery on the exercise of this Warrant, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) to effect the full exercise of this Warrant and the exercise, conversion or exchange of any other warrant or security of the Company exercisable for, convertible into, exchangeable for or otherwise entitling the Holder to acquire shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities), and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) shall not be sufficient to effect such exercise, conversion or exchange, the Company shall take such action as may be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) to such number as shall be sufficient for such purposes.
8. Transfer of Warrant. This Warrant cannot be transferred in whole or in part unless: (i) such transfer is to a Permitted Transferee as such term is defined in that certain Stockholders Agreement dated as of October 25, 2002 among the Company, the Holder and the other parties named therein (the "Stockholders Agreement"), (ii) such Permitted Transferee agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Stockholders Agreement, (iii) such transfer is made in connection with a concurrent transfer to the Permitted Transferee of a proportional amount of the Holder's shares of Series 4-A Convertible Preferred Stock or Common Stock issued upon conversion of those shares, provided, that if the Holder on any occasion does not transfer, in connection with a partial transfer of its Series 4-A Convertible Preferred Stock or Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Series 4-A Convertible Preferred Stock, the full portion of the Warrant that such Holder would be entitled to transfer at that time (the "Untransferred Portion"), the Holder shall have the right to transfer, in any subsequent transfer by such Holder of its Series 4-A Convertible Preferred Stock or Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Series 4-A Convertible Preferred Stock, the Untransferred Portion in addition to whatever portion of Warrants such Holder would otherwise be entitled to transfer in accordance with this subsection (iii) and (iv) such transfer complies with all applicable securities laws.

11. Securities Laws. By acceptance of this Warrant, the Holder represents to the
Company that the Holder is "accredited investor" within the meaning of Rule 501 of
Regulation D adopted under the Securities Act, as presently in effect, or not a "U.S. person"
within the meaning of Rule 902 adopted under the Securities Act and is acquiring the
Securities in an "offshore transaction" as defined in Rule 902, that this Warrant is being
acquired for the Holder's own account and for the purpose of investment and not with a view
to, or for sale in connection with, the distribution thereof, nor with any present intention of
distributing or selling the Warrant or the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the
Warrant, and that it is an investor in securities of companies in the development stage and
acknowledges that it can
25NEXT PAGE
bear the economic risk of its investment and has such knowledge and
experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks
of the investment in the shares subject to this Warrant. The Holder acknowledges and agrees
that this Warrant and the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (if any) have
not been (and at the time of acquisition by the Holder, will not have been or will not be)
registered under the Securities Act or under the securities laws of any state, in reliance upon
certain exemptive provisions of such statutes. The Holder further recognizes and
acknowledges that because this Warrant and the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant are unregistered, they may not be eligible for resale, and may only be resold in the
future pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and any
applicable state securities laws, or pursuant to a valid exemption from such registration
requirements and that the Holder may, therefore, be required to bear the economic risk of such
investment indefinitely.
12. Legend. Unless theretofore registered for resale under the Securities Act, each certificate for shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall bear the following or a similar legend, in addition to any other legends required by any agreements entered into by the Company and the Holder:
"THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF A REGISTRATION STATEMENT IN EFFECT WITH RESPECT TO THE SECURITIES UNDER SUCH ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OF SUCH ACT."
13. Miscellaneous. This Warrant and any terms hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which enforcement of such change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought. If, in any action before any court or agency legally empowered to enforce any term, any term is found to be unenforceable, then such term shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to make it enforceable by such court or agency, and if any term is not so curable, the unenforceability of such term shall not affect the other provisions of this Warrant but this Warrant shall be constructed as if such unenforceable term had never been contained herein. This Warrant shall be construed and enforced in accordance with and governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflict of laws principles. The headings in this Warrant are for purposes of reference only, and shall not limit or otherwise affect any of the terms hereof. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision.
