delivery of this Warrant. The Company has taken all corporate action required

of
the Company. The Company has authorized sufficient shares of Common Stock to

(c) Valid

5. Representations
and Warranties of the Holder.
In
connection with the transactions provided for herein, the Holder hereby
represents and warrants to the Company that:
(a) Authorization.
Holder
represents that it has full power and authority to enter into this Warrant.
This
Warrant constitutes the Holder’s valid and legally binding obligation,
enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by (i)
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or similar laws relating
to
or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and (ii) laws relating to the
availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable
remedies.
(b) Purchase
Entirely for Own Account.
The
Holder acknowledges that this Warrant is entered into by the Holder in reliance
upon such Xxxxxx’s representation to the Company that the Warrant and the Shares
(collectively, the “Securities”)
will
be acquired for investment for the Holder’s own account, not as a nominee or
agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof,
and that the Holder has no present intention of selling, granting any
participation in or otherwise distributing the same. By acknowledging this
Warrant, the Holder further represents that the Holder does not have any
contract, undertaking, agreement, or arrangement with any person to sell,
transfer or grant participations to such person or to any third person, with
respect to the Securities.
(c) Disclosure
of Information.
The
Holder acknowledges that it has received all the information it considers
necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to acquire the Securities. The
Holder further represents that it has had an opportunity to ask questions and
receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the
offering of the Securities.
(d) Investment
Experience.
The
Holder is an investor in securities of companies in the development stage and
acknowledges that it is able to fend for itself, 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 Securities and recognizes that it may realize a loss of its entire
investment in the Securities. If other than an individual, the Holder also
represents it has not been organized solely for the purpose of acquiring the
Securities.

(e) Accredited
Investor.
The
Holder is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation
D, as presently in effect, as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “SEC”)
under
the Act.
(f) Restricted
Securities.
The
Holder understands that the Securities are characterized as “restricted
securities” under the federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being
acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering
and
that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold
without registration under the Act, only in certain limited circumstances.
In
this connection, each Lender represents that it is familiar with Rule 144,
as
presently in effect, as promulgated by the SEC under the Act (“Rule
144”),
and
understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Act.
(g) Further
Limitations on Disposition.
Without
in any way limiting the representations set forth above, the Holder further
agrees not to make any disposition of all or any portion of the Shares unless
and until the transferee has agreed in writing for the benefit of the Company
to
be bound by the terms of this Warrant, including, without limitation, this
Section 5 and:
(i) there
is
then in effect a registration statement under the Act covering such proposed
disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with such registration
statement; or
(ii) the
Holder shall have notified the Company of the proposed disposition and shall
have furnished the Company with a detailed statement of the circumstances
surrounding the proposed disposition, and if reasonably requested by the
Company, the Holder shall have furnished the Company with an opinion of counsel,
reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such disposition will not require
registration of such shares under the Act. It is agreed that the Company will
not require opinions of counsel for transactions made pursuant to Rule 144
except in extraordinary circumstances; or
(iii) if
other
than an individual, the Holder shall not make any disposition to any of the
Company’s competitors as such is reasonably in
good
faith determined by the Company.
(h) Legends.
It is
understood that the Securities may bear the following legend:
“THESE
SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
AMENDED. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED, OR
OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL
SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SUCH ACT
OR
UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 UNDER SUCH ACT.”

6. Covenants
of the Company.
(a) Notices
of Record Date.
In the
event of 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 (other than a cash dividend which is the same as cash
dividends paid in previous quarters and stock dividends) or other distribution,
the Company shall mail to the Holder, at least ten (10) days
prior to such record date, a notice specifying the date on which any such record
is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend or distribution.
(b) Covenants
as to Exercise Shares.
The
Company covenants and agrees that all Shares that may be issued upon the
exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance in
accordance with the terms hereof, be validly issued and outstanding, fully
paid
and nonassessable, and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect
to
the issuance thereof. The Company further covenants and agrees that the Company
will at all times during the Exercise Period, have authorized and reserved,
free
from preemptive rights, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide
for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant. If at any time
during the Exercise Period the number of authorized but unissued shares of
Common Stock shall not be sufficient to permit exercise of this Warrant, the
Company will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel,
be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock
to
such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes.
7. Adjustment
of Exercise Price and Number of Shares.
The
number and kind of Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant and the
Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as
follows:
(a) Subdivisions,
Combinations and Other Issuances.
If the
Company shall at any time after the issuance but prior to the expiration of
this
Warrant subdivide its Common Stock, by split-up or otherwise, or combine its
Common Stock, or issue additional shares of its Common Stock as a dividend
with
respect to any shares of its Common Stock, the number of Shares issuable on
the
exercise of this Warrant shall forthwith be proportionately increased in the
case of a subdivision or stock dividend, or proportionately decreased in the
case of a combination. Appropriate adjustments shall also be made to the
Exercise Price payable per share, but the aggregate Exercise Price payable
for
the total number of Shares purchasable under this Warrant (as adjusted) shall
remain the same. Any adjustment under this Section 7(a) shall become
effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination
becomes effective, or as of the record date of such dividend, or in the event
that no record date is fixed, upon the making of such dividend.
(b) Reclassification,
Reorganization and Consolidation.
In case
of any reclassification, capital reorganization or change in the capital stock
of the Company (other than as a result of a subdivision, combination or stock
dividend provided for in Section 7(a) above), then, as a condition of such
reclassification, reorganization or change, lawful provision shall be made,
and
duly executed documents evidencing the same from the Company or its successor
shall be delivered to the Holder, so that the Holder shall have the right at
any
time prior to the expiration of this Warrant to purchase, at a total price
equal
to that payable upon the exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of shares
of stock and other securities or property receivable in connection with such
reclassification, reorganization or change by a holder of the same number and
type of securities as were purchasable as Shares by the Holder immediately
prior
to such reclassification, reorganization or change. In any such case appropriate
provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interest of the Holder
so that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable with respect to
any
shares of stock or other securities or property deliverable upon exercise
hereof, and appropriate adjustments shall be made to the Exercise Price per
Share payable hereunder, provided the aggregate Exercise Price shall remain
the
same.

shall promptly notify the Holder of such event and of the number of Shares
or
other securities or property thereafter purchasable upon exercise of this
Warrant.
8. Choice
of Law, Venue and Forum.
This
Agreement, the entire relationship of the parties hereto, and any litigation
between the parties (whether grounded in contract, tort, statute, law or equity)
shall be governed by, construed in accordance with, and interpreted pursuant
to
the laws of the State of Texas, without giving effect to its choice of laws
principles. Exclusive venue for any litigation between the parties hereto shall
be in Xxxxxx County, Texas, and shall be brought in the State District Courts
of
Xxxxxx County, Texas, or in the United States District Court for the Southern
District of Texas, Houston Division. The parties hereto waive any challenge
