prior to the sooner of 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the
Expiration Date (as hereinafter defined) or 5:00 p.m. on any

Exercise Date. Promptly following, and in any event within ten
(10) business days after, the date on which the Corporation
first receives clearance of all funds received in payment of
the Purchase Price pursuant to this Warrant Certificate, the
Corporation shall cause to be issued and delivered to the
person or persons entitled to receive the same, a certificate
or certificates evidencing the issuance to such Holder of the
applicable number of Warrant Shares (plus a Warrant
Certificate for any remaining issued but unexercised Warrants
of the Holder). Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, in the
event that any registration or qualification (or filing for
exemption from any such requirements) is required prior to the
issuance of such Warrant Shares by the Corporation in
accordance with Section 3(b) below, then the obligation to
deliver any such certificates shall arise only upon completion
of such requirements and at such time as the Corporation may
lawfully do so.
(b) Upon the exercise of the Warrants represented hereby, if the
Corporation so requests, the Holder shall certify to the
Corporation that it is not exercising such Warrants with a
view to distribute the Warrant Shares in violation of the
Securities Act, and shall provide such other investor
representations as the Corporation may require to confirm the
ability of the Corporation to rely upon the exemption from
registration under the Securities Act which applies to the
distribution of Warrant Shares at the time of such
distribution.
-6-
SECTION 3. RESERVATION OF SHARES; TAXES; ETC.
(a) The Corporation covenants that it will at all times reserve
and keep available out of its authorized Common Stock, solely
for the purpose of issue upon the valid exercise of Warrants,
such number of Warrant Shares as shall then be issuable upon
the exercise of all Warrants then outstanding. The Corporation
covenants that all shares of Common Stock which shall be
issuable upon exercise of the Warrants shall, at the time of
delivery, be duly and validly issued, fully-paid,
non-assessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with
respect to the issuance thereof (other than those which the
Corporation shall promptly pay or discharge, or any liens
created thereon by the Holder thereof and/or any predecessor
of such Holder).
(b) The Corporation shall not be obligated to deliver any Warrant
Shares pursuant to the exercise of the Warrants represented
hereby unless and until a registration statement under the
Securities Act and/or under any applicable state securities
laws and regulations, with respect to such securities is
effective, or an exemption from such registration is available
to the Corporation at the time of such exercise. The
Corporation covenants that if any Warrant Shares reserved for
the purpose of exercise of Warrants hereunder require
registration with, or approval of, any governmental authority
under any federal or state securities law before such
securities may be validly issued or delivered upon such
exercise, then the Corporation will in good faith and as
expeditiously as reasonably possible, endeavor to secure such
registration or approval. However, in the event that this
Warrant Certificate represents Warrants which have been
transferred by an initial holder thereof, the Warrants
represented hereby may not be exercised by, nor shares of
Common Stock issued to, the Holder hereof in any state in
which such exercise and issuance would be unlawful.
(c) The Corporation shall pay all documentary, stamp or similar
taxes and other governmental charges that may be imposed with
respect to the issuance of the Warrants, or the issuance or
delivery of any shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the
Warrants; provided, however, that if the shares of Common
Stock are to be delivered in a name other than the name of the
Holder hereof, then no such delivery shall be made unless the
person requesting the same has paid to the Corporation the
amount of transfer taxes or charges incident thereto, if any.
-7-
SECTION 4. LOSS OR MUTILATION. Upon receipt by the Corporation of
evidence satisfactory to it of the ownership of, and loss, theft,
destruction or mutilation of, this Warrant Certificate and (in case of
loss, theft or destruction) of indemnity satisfactory to the
Corporation, and (in the case of mutilation) upon surrender and
cancellation thereof, the Corporation shall execute and deliver to the
Holder in lieu thereof a new Warrant Certificate of like tenor
representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants as was indicated to
be outstanding on the prior lost or mutilated Warrant Certificate
(provided, however, that to the extent that any discrepancy may exist
between the number of Warrants purported to be outstanding in respect
of any Holder as evidenced by a Warrant Certificate that has been lost
or mutilated and the number attributable to such Holder in the Warrant
Registry, then the Warrant Registry shall control for all purposes,
absent a showing of manifest error. Each Holder requesting a substitute
Warrant Certificate due to loss, theft or destruction shall, prior to
receiving such substitute certificate, provide an affidavit to the
Corporation in the form prescribed thereby and signed by (and notarized
on behalf of) such Holder. Applicants for a substitute Warrant
Certificate shall comply with such other reasonable regulations and pay
such other reasonable charges as the Corporation may prescribe.
SECTION 5. ADJUSTMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE AND NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES OR
WARRANTS.
(a) Subject to the provisions of this Warrant Certificate and
applicable law, in the event the Corporation shall, at any
time or from time to time after the date hereof, issue any
shares of Common Stock as a stock dividend to the holders of
Common Stock, or subdivide or combine the outstanding shares
of Common Stock into a greater or lesser number of shares (any
such sale, issuance, subdivision or combination being herein
called a "CHANGE OF SHARES"), then, and thereafter upon each
further Change of Shares, the Purchase Price and the Call
Price in effect immediately prior to such Change of Shares
shall be reduced or increased to a price (the "ADJUSTED
PURCHASE PRICE") determined by multiplying the Purchase Price
in effect immediately prior to such Change of Shares by a
fraction, the numerator of which shall be the sum of the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior
to the issuance of such additional shares plus the number of
shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration
received by the Corporation would purchase at such Purchase
Price, and the denominator of which shall be the sum of the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after
the issuance of such additional shares. Such adjustment to the
Purchase Price shall be made successively whenever an issuance
is made after a Change of Shares has occurred.
-8-
Upon each adjustment of the Purchase Price pursuant to this
Section 5(a), the total number of shares of Common Stock
purchasable upon the exercise of each Warrant shall become
(subject to the provisions contained in Section 5(b) hereof)
such number of shares (calculated to the nearest tenth)
purchasable at the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior
to such adjustment multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of
which shall be the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior
to such adjustment and the denominator of which shall be the
applicable Adjusted Purchase Price (rounded to the nearest
whole number of shares). No fractional shares shall be issued
or called for as a result of any adjustment made hereunder.
(b) The Corporation may elect, at its sole discretion, upon any
adjustment of the Purchase Price hereunder, to adjust the
number of Warrants outstanding, in lieu of adjustment of the
number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of each
Warrant as hereinabove provided, so that each Warrant
outstanding after such adjustment shall represent the right to
purchase one Warrant Share. Each Warrant held of record prior
to such adjustment of the number of Warrants shall become that
number of Warrants (calculated to the nearest tenth)
determined by multiplying the number one by a fraction, the
numerator of which shall be the Purchase Price in effect
immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of
which shall be the Adjusted Purchase Price. Upon each
adjustment of the number of Warrants pursuant to this Section
5(b), the Corporation shall, as promptly as practicable, cause
to be distributed to each Holder of Warrant Certificates, on
the date of such adjustment, Warrant Certificates evidencing
the adjusted number of Warrants to which such Holder shall be
entitled as a result of such adjustment or, at the sole option
of the Corporation, cause to be distributed to such Holder in
substitution and replacement for the Warrant Certificates held
by him prior to the date of adjustment, and upon surrender
thereof, (if required by the Corporation) new Warrant
Certificates evidencing the aggregate number of Warrants to
which such Holder shall be entitled after such adjustment.
(c) In case of any reclassification, capital reorganization or
other change of outstanding shares of Common Stock, or in case
of any consolidation or merger of the Corporation with or into
another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in
which the Corporation is the continuing corporation and which
does not result in any reclassification, capital
reorganization or other change of outstanding shares of Common
Stock), or in case of any sale or conveyance to another
corporation of all, or substantially all, of the property of
the Corporation (other than a sale/leaseback, mortgage or
-9-
other financing transaction), the Corporation shall cause
effective provision to be made so that each holder of a
Warrant then outstanding shall have the right thereafter, by
exercising such Warrant, to purchase the kind and number of
shares of stock or other securities or property (including
cash) receivable upon such reclassification, capital
reorganization or other change, consolidation, merger, sale or
conveyance by a holder of the number of Warrant Shares that
might have been purchased upon exercise of such Warrant
immediately prior to such reclassification, capital
reorganization or other change, consolidation, merger, sale or
conveyance. Any such provision shall include provision for
adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as may be
practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 5
upon a Change of Shares. The Corporation shall not effect any
such consolidation, merger or sale without the written consent
of Holders of a majority of the Warrants then outstanding,
unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation
thereof the successor (if other than the Corporation)
resulting from such consolidation or merger or the corporation
purchasing assets or other appropriate corporation or entity
shall assume, by written instrument executed and delivered to
the Corporation, the obligation to deliver to the holder of
each Warrant such substitute warrants, shares of stock,
securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing
provisions, such Holders may be entitled to purchase, and the
other obligations of the Corporation set out in this
Certificate. The foregoing provisions shall similarly apply to
successive reclassifications, capital reorganizations and
other changes of outstanding shares of Common Stock and to
successive consolidations, mergers, sales or conveyances.
(d) Irrespective of any adjustments or changes in the Purchase
Price or the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon
exercise of the Warrants, all Warrant Certificates issued
(whether prior to or subsequent to any event causing an
adjustment thereof) shall continue to express the Purchase
Price per share, and the number of shares purchasable
thereunder as originally expressed in the Warrant Certificate
initially issued to any Holder.
(e) After each adjustment of the Purchase Price pursuant to this
Section 5, the Corporation will promptly prepare a certificate
signed by the Chairman or Chief Executive Officer, and
attested by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary, of the
Corporation setting forth: (i) the Purchase Price as so
adjusted, (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock
purchasable upon exercise of each Warrant after such
adjustment or, if the Corporation shall have elected to adjust
-10-
the number of Warrants, the number of Warrants to which the
Holder of each Warrant shall then be entitled, and (iii) a
brief statement of the facts accounting for such adjustment.
The Corporation will promptly cause a brief summary thereof to
be sent by ordinary first class mail to each Holder of
Warrants at his or her last address as it shall appear on the
registry books of the Corporation. No failure to mail such
notice nor any defect therein nor in the mailing thereof shall
affect the validity thereof. The affidavit of the Secretary or
an Assistant Secretary of the Corporation that such notice has
been mailed shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie
evidence of the facts stated therein.
(f) As used in this Section 5, references to "Common Stock" shall
mean and include all of the Corporation's Common Stock
authorized on the date hereof and shall also include any
capital stock of any class of the Corporation thereafter
authorized which shall not be limited to a fixed sum or
percentage in respect of the rights of the holders thereof to
participate in dividends and in the distribution of assets
upon the voluntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of
the Corporation; provided, however, that "Warrant Shares"
shall include only shares of such class designated in the
Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation as Common Stock on
the date hereof or (i) in the case of any reclassification,
change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance of the
character referred to in Section 5(c) hereof, the stock,
securities or property provided for in such section, or (ii)
in the case of any reclassification or change in the
outstanding shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of
the Warrants as a result of a subdivision or combination or
consisting of a change in par value, or from par value to no
par value, or from no par value to par value, such shares of
Common Stock as so reclassified or changed.
(g) Any determination as to whether an adjustment in the Purchase
Price in effect hereunder is required pursuant to this Section
5, or as to the amount of any such adjustment, if required,
shall be binding upon all holders of Warrants and the
Corporation if made in good faith by the Board of Directors of
the Corporation. For purposes of this Section 5(g), the
Corporation's Board of Directors shall be deemed to have acted
in good faith if it makes any such decision in reliance upon
advice of its legal counsel and/or another independent
professional hired to advise the Board on such matters.
-11-
SECTION 6. RESTRICTIVE LEGEND.
(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 6, each Warrant
Certificate and each certificate evidencing the issuance of
Warrant Shares (whether issued in the name of the original
Holder of this Certificate or of any subsequent transferee
thereof), shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a
legend in substantially the following form:
"THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN AND

SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"). THESE
SECURITIES MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE
TRANSFERRED ONLY (A) TO THE ISSUER, (B) OUTSIDE THE
UNITED STATES IN COMPLIANCE WITH REGULATION S UNDER

LAWS, AND THE HOLDER HAS, PRIOR TO SUCH SALE,
FURNISHED TO THE ISSUER AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OR
OTHER EVIDENCE OF EXEMPTION, IN EITHER CASE

THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT CONSTITUTE "GOOD DELIVERY"
IN SETTLEMENT OF TRANSACTIONS ON STOCK EXCHANGES IN
CANADA. THE HOLDER HEREOF WILL NOT, DIRECTLY OR
INDIRECTLY, ENGAGE IN ANY HEDGING TRANSACTION WITH
REGARD TO THIS SECURITY, EXCEPT AS PERMITTED BY THE
ACT. "
(b) Each certificate evidencing the issuance of Warrant Shares and
each Warrant Certificate, Warrant Shares may also bear such
other restrictive legends as may be necessary to apply with
applicable law in the Corporation's reasonable discretion. The
legend requirements of Sections 6(a) above shall terminate as
to any particular Warrant or Warrant Share: (i) when and so
long as such security shall have been effectively registered
-12-
under the Securities Act and is disposed of pursuant thereto;
or (ii) when the Company shall have received an opinion of
counsel reasonably satisfactory to it that such shares may be
sold to the public without registration thereof under the
Securities Act. Whenever the legend requirements imposed by
this Section 6 shall terminate as to any Warrant Share, as
hereinabove provided, the Holder hereof shall be entitled to
receive from the Corporation, at the Corporation's expense, a
new certificate representing such Warrant Shares and not
bearing the restrictive legend set forth in Section 6(a).
SECTION 7. RIGHTS OF ACTION. All rights of action with respect to the

Warrant, without consent of the holder of any other Warrant, may, in
such Holder's own behalf and for his own benefit, enforce against the
Company his right to exercise his Warrants for the purchase of Warrant
Shares in the manner provided in this Warrant Certificate.
SECTION 8. AGREEMENT OF WARRANT HOLDERS. Every holder of a Warrant, by
his or her acceptance thereof, consents and agrees with the Corporation
and every other holder of a Warrant that:
(a) The Warrant Registry shall be maintained by the Corporation's
Secretary, and shall be the official register of all Warrants
issued to any person in the Offering. The Warrant Registry
shall be dispositive as to the issuance, ownership, transfer
and other aspects of each Warrant issued by the Corporation
which are recorded therein and, absent manifest error, such
records shall control for all purposes.
(b) The Warrants are transferable only on the Warrant Registry by
the Holder thereof in person or by his attorney duly
authorized in writing and only if the Warrant Certificates
representing such Warrants are surrendered at the Corporate
Office of the Corporation, duly endorsed or accompanied by a
proper instrument of transfer satisfactory to the Corporation
in its sole discretion, together with payment of the amount of
any applicable transfer taxes; and
(c) The Corporation may deem and treat the person in whose name
the Warrant Certificate is registered on the Warrant Registry
as the holder and as the absolute, true and lawful owner of
the Warrants represented thereby for all purposes, and the
Corporation shall not be affected by any notice or knowledge
to the contrary, except as otherwise expressly provided in
this Certificate.
-13-
SECTION 9. CALL RIGHT. Subject to the provisions of this Section 9, at
any time following the date on which the closing price of the
Corporation's common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board (or on such other
over-the-counter market or stock exchange on which the Corporation's
stock may then be traded) has equaled or exceeded $0.80 per share (the"
CALL PRICE") as such price may be adjusted from time to time pursuant
to Section 5, the Company may call for cancellation of the portion or
all of this Warrant which the Holder has not exercised prior to 5:00
p.m. Pacific Time on the Call Date (as defined below). To exercise this
right, the Corporation must deliver to the Holder an irrevocable
written notice (a "CALL NOTICE"), indicating therein that this Warrant
shall be cancelled. This Warrant shall be cancelled at 5:00 p.m.

adjustment made by the Corporation in accordance with the provisions of
Section 5 hereof, this Certificate may only be modified, supplemented
or altered by the Corporation, and only with the consent in writing of
the Holders of Warrants representing greater than fifty percent (50%)
of the total Warrants then outstanding as may have been issued by the
Corporation pursuant to the conversion of outstanding balances under
Secured Convertible Debentures executed in May 2007; provided, that no
change in the number or nature of the securities purchasable upon the
exercise of any Warrant, or the acceleration of the Exercise Date,
shall be made without the consent in writing of the Holder of the
Warrant Certificate representing such Warrant, other than such changes
as are specifically prescribed by this Certificate as originally
executed or are made in compliance with applicable law.
SECTION 11. NOTICES. All notices, requests, consents and other
