4. Issuance of Certificates.
4.1 Issuance. Upon the exercise of the Warrant, the issuance of certificates for the Warrant Shares shall be made forthwith (and in any event within 5 business days thereafter) without any charge to the Holder thereof including, without limitation, any tax (other than income taxes) which may be payable in respect of the issuance thereof, and such certificates shall (subject to the provisions of Section 5 hereof) be issued in the name of, or in such names as may be directed by, the Holder thereof; provided however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificates in a name other than that of the Holder and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the person or persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.
4.2 Form of Certificates. The Warrant Certificates and certificates representing the Warrant Shares shall be executed on behalf of the Company by such officer or officers as are permitted or required to execute such certificates on behalf of the Company by the Company’s by-laws and applicable law. Warrant Certificates shall be dated the date of execution by the Company upon initial issuance, division, exchange, substitution or transfer.
(a) The Warrant Certificates shall bear a legend substantially similar to the following:
NEITHER THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE HEREOF HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF A REGISTRATION STATEMENT IN EFFECT WITH RESPECT TO THE SECURITIES UNDER SUCH ACT OR AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM. ANY SUCH TRANSFER MAY ALSO BE SUBJECT TO APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.
THIS CERTIFICATE IS ISSUED SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF A WARRANT AGREEMENT DATED AS OF _________, 2010, AS THE SAME MAY BE AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME, AND ANY TRANSFEREE OF THIS CERTIFICATE OR OF THE SHARES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF IT SHALL BE BOUND BY THE PROVISIONS OF SAID AGREEMENT, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE WITH, AND AVAILABLE FROM, THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY.
(b) Upon exercise of the Warrants, in part or in whole, certificates representing the Warrant Shares issued upon such exercise shall bear a legend substantially similar to the following:
2
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.
5. Restriction on Transfer of Warrants. The Holder of a Warrant Certificate, by his, her or its acceptance thereof, covenants and agrees that the Warrant is being acquired, and any Warrant Shares will be acquired, as an investment and not with a view to the distribution thereof, and that the Warrant and Warrant Shares may not be sold, transferred, assigned, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of, in whole or in part, except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements thereof. In connection with the transfer or exercise of the Warrant, the transferee and Holder must agree to execute any documents which may be reasonably required by counsel to the Company to comply with the provisions of the Act and applicable state securities laws.
6. Price.
6.1 Initial and Adjusted Exercise Price. The initial exercise price of each Warrant shall be $0.15 per Warrant Share. The adjusted exercise price shall be the price which shall result from time to time from any and all adjustments of the initial exercise price in accordance with the provisions of Section 7 hereof.
6.2 Exercise Price. The term “Exercise Price” herein shall mean the initial exercise price or the adjusted exercise price, depending upon the context.
7. Adjustments of Exercise Price and Number of Warrant Shares. If outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock shall be subdivided into a greater number of shares or a dividend in Common Stock shall be paid in respect of Common Stock, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision or at the record date of such dividend shall simultaneously with the effectiveness of such subdivision or immediately after the record date of such dividend be proportionately reduced. If outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be combined into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall, simultaneously with the effectiveness of such combination, be proportionately increased. When any adjustment is required to be made in the Exercise Price, the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be changed to the number determined by dividing (i) an amount equal to the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment, by (ii) the Exercise Price in effect immediately after such adjustment.
8. Exchange and Replacement of Warrant Certificates.
8.1 Exchange. Each Warrant Certificate is exchangeable without expense, upon the surrender hereof by the registered Holder at the principal executive office of the Company, for a new Warrant Certificate of like tenor and date representing in the aggregate the right to purchase the same number of Warrant Shares in such denominations as shall be designated by the Holder thereof at the time of such surrender.

8.2 Replacement. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Warrant Certificate, and, in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it, and reimbursement to the Company of all reasonable expenses incidental thereto, and upon surrender and cancellation of the Warrant, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant Certificate of like tenor, in lieu thereof.
9. Elimination of Fractional Interests. The Company shall not be required to issue certificates representing fractions of shares of Common Stock and shall not be required to issue scrip or pay cash in lieu of fractional interests, it being the intent of the parties that all fractional interests shall be eliminated by rounding any fraction up to the nearest whole number of shares of Common Stock.
10. Reservation and Listing of Securities. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon the exercise of the Warrant, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall be issuable upon the exercise thereof. The Company covenants and agrees that, upon exercise of the Warrant and payment of the Exercise Price thereof, all shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise shall be duly and validly issued, fully paid, non-assessable and not subject to the preemptive rights of any stockholder. As long as the Warrant shall be outstanding, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause all shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant to be listed on or quoted by the exchange or quotation service upon which the Company’s Common Stock is then listed or quoted.
11. Notices to Warrant Holders. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as conferring upon the Holder or Holders the right to vote or to consent or to receive notice as a stockholder in respect of any meetings of stockholders for the election of directors or any other matter, or as having any rights whatsoever as a stockholder of the Company.
12. Notices. All notices, requests, payments, instructions or other documents to be given hereunder will be in writing or by written telecommunication, and will be deemed to have been duly given if (i) delivered personally (effective upon delivery), (ii) mailed by certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid (effective 5 business days after dispatch), (iii) sent by a reputable, established courier service that provides evidence of delivery and guarantees next business day delivery (effective the next business day), or (iv) sent by facsimile followed by confirmation, addressed as follows (or to such other address as the recipient party may have furnished to the sending party for the purpose pursuant to this Section 12):
