Warrant Shares as to which the Cashless Exercise Right is then being exercised (the “Cashless
Exercise Shares”), determined as of immediately prior to the effective time of the exercise of the
Cashless Exercise Right, minus (2) the aggregate Exercise Price then applicable to the Cashless
Exercise Shares (such difference, the “Cashless Exercise Amount”), by (y) the Market Price of one
share of Common Stock determined as of the close of trading immediately after the effective time of
the exercise of the Cashless Exercise right. Upon exercise of the Cashless Exercise right, the
Cashless Exercise Amount shall be deemed to have been paid to the Company in respect of the Warrant

Warrant and either (a) payment of the Purchase Price and delivery of the Exercise Agreement or
(b) delivery of the Form of Cashless Exercise to the Company, and in any event within ten (10) days
after such surrender, payment and delivery to the Company in the manner described above. Unless
this Warrant has expired or all of the purchase rights represented hereby have been exercised, the
Company shall prepare a new Warrant, substantially identical hereto, in the name of Registered
Holder, representing the rights formerly represented by this Warrant which have not expired or been
exercised and shall, as soon as practicable, deliver such new Warrant to the Registered Holder or
to such Person as the Registered Holder has designated for delivery.

nonassessable and free from all liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof.
(vi) The Company shall not close its books against the transfer of this Warrant or of any
share of Warrant Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant in any manner which
2
interferes with the timely exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall from time to time take
all such action as may be necessary to insure that the par value per share of the unissued Warrant
Stock acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant is at all times equal to or less than the Exercise
Price then in effect.
(vii) The Company shall assist and cooperate with any Registered Holder required to make any
governmental filings or obtain any governmental approvals prior to, or in connection with, the
exercise of this Warrant.

unissued shares of Warrant Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon the exercise of the
Warrants, at least such number of shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon the exercise in full of all
outstanding Warrants. The Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary to insure that
all such shares of Warrant Stock may be so issued without violation of any applicable law or
governmental regulation or any requirements of any domestic securities exchange upon which shares
of Warrant Stock may be listed (except for official notice of issuance which shall be immediately
delivered by the Company upon each such issuance). The Company shall not take any action which
would cause the number of authorized but unissued shares of Warrant Stock to be less than the
number of such shares required to be reserved hereunder for issuance upon exercise of the Warrants.
(ix) If the shares of Warrant Stock issuable by reason of exercise of this Warrant are
convertible into or exchangeable for any other stock or securities of the Company, the Company
shall, at the Registered Holder’s option and upon surrender of this Warrant by such holder as
provided above, together with any notice, statement or payment required to effect such conversion
or exchange of Warrant Stock, deliver to such holder (or such other Person specified by such

the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of shares of Warrant Stock being purchased upon such
exercise.
1C. Fractional Shares. If a fractional share of Warrant Stock would be issuable upon
exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, the Company shall, as soon as practicable after
the date of exercise, deliver to the Registered Holder a check payable to the Registered Holder, in
lieu of such fractional share, in an amount equal to the difference between (x) the Market Price of
such fractional share as of the date of the Exercise Time and (y) the Exercise Price of such
fractional share.
Section 2. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares. In order to prevent dilution
of the rights granted under this Warrant, the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from
time to time as provided in this Section 2, and the number of shares of Warrant Stock obtainable
upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this
Section 2.
2A. Adjustments of Number of Shares/Price. In the event of a subdivision or
combination of the Common Stock, a stock dividend with respect to the Common Stock, a
recapitalization, or a reclassification of the Common Stock, the number of and kind of shares
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, and the Exercise Price per share, shall be equitably
adjusted by the Company’s Board of
3
Directors as it deems necessary, and in its sole discretion, to prevent dilution of the rights
of the Registered Holder set forth in this Warrant. Promptly following any such adjustment, the
Company shall provide the Registered Holder with a certificate stating the nature of the event
giving rise to the adjustment and setting forth the adjusted Exercise Price and the number and kind
of shares for which this Warrant shall then be exercisable.
2B. Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company at any time subdivides
(by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced and the number of shares of
Warrant Stock obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased. If the
Company at any time combines (by reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased and the number of shares
of Warrant Stock obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately decreased.
2C. Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale. Any
recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale of all or
substantially all of the Company’s assets or other transaction, which in each case is effected in
such a way that the holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive (either directly or upon
subsequent liquidation) stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock
is referred to herein as an “Organic Change.” Prior to the consummation of any Organic Change, the
Company shall make appropriate provision (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Registered Holders of the Warrants, representing a majority of the Warrant Stock obtainable upon
exercise of all Warrants then outstanding) to insure that each of the Registered Holders of the
Warrants shall thereafter have the right to acquire and receive, in lieu of or in addition to (as
the case may be) the shares of Warrant Stock immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon
the exercise of such holder’s Warrant, such shares of stock, securities or assets as may be issued
or payable with respect to or in exchange for the number of shares of Warrant Stock immediately
theretofore acquirable and receivable upon exercise of such holder’s Warrant had such Organic
Change not taken place. In any such case, the Company shall make appropriate provision (in form
and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Registered Holders of the Warrants representing a
majority of the Warrant Stock obtainable upon exercise of all Warrants then outstanding) with
respect to such holders’ rights and interests to insure that the provisions of this Section 2 and
Sections I, 3 and 4 hereof shall thereafter be applicable to the Warrants (including, in the case
of any such consolidation, merger or sale in which the successor entity or purchasing entity is
other than the Company, an immediate adjustment of the Exercise Price to the value for the Common
Stock reflected by the terms of such consolidation, merger or sale, and a corresponding immediate
adjustment in the number of shares of Warrant Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of the
Warrants, if the value so reflected is less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to
such consolidation, merger or sale). The Company shall not effect any such consolidation, merger
or sale, unless prior to the consummation thereof, the successor entity (if other than the Company)
resulting from consolidation or merger or the entity purchasing such assets assumes by written
instrument (in form and substance satisfactory to the Registered Holders of Warrants representing a
majority of the Warrant Stock obtainable upon exercise of all the Warrants then outstanding), the
obligation to deliver to each such holder such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in
accordance with the foregoing provisions, such holder may be entitled to acquire.

stock dividend payable in shares of Common Stock) (a “Liquidating Dividend”), then the Company

entitled to such dividends are to be determined.
Section 4. Purchase Rights. If at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any
Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property
pro rata to the record holders of any class of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the
Registered Holder of this Warrant shall be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such
