No. __________

March 12, 2015

SUMMER ENERGY HOLDINGS, INC.

WARRANT TO PURCHASE 200,000 SHARES OF

COMMON STOCK

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, _________________ (“Warrantholder”), is entitled to purchase, subject to the provisions of this Warrant (the “Warrant”), from Summer Energy Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Company”), at any time after the date hereof (the “Initial Exercise Date”) and not later than 5:00 P.M., Eastern time, on the Expiration Date (as defined above), at an exercise price per share equal to $1.50 (the exercise price in effect being herein called the “Warrant Price”), 200,000 shares (“Warrant Shares”) of the Company’s Common Stock (“Common Stock”). The number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant and the Warrant Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as described herein.

This Warrant is issued by the Company pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) of even date herewith among the Company and Warrantholder.

B. Record Keeping. The Company shall maintain books for the transfer and registration of the Warrant for purposes of the Company’s books and records. Upon the initial issuance of this Warrant, the Company shall issue and register the Warrant in the name of the Warrantholder on the Company’s books and records.

C. Transfers. As provided herein, this Warrant may be transferred only pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or an exemption from such registration. Subject to such restrictions, the Company shall transfer this Warrant from time to time upon the books to be maintained by the Company for that purpose, upon surrender hereof for transfer, properly endorsed or accompanied by appropriate instructions for transfer and such other documents as may be reasonably required by the Company, including, if required by the Company, an opinion of its counsel to the effect that such transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, to establish that such transfer is being made in accordance with the terms hereof, and a new Warrant shall be issued to the transferee and the surrendered Warrant shall be canceled by the Company.

D. Exercise of Warrant.

1. Subject to the provisions hereof, the Warrantholder may exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, at any time after the Initial Exercise Date and prior to the Expiration Date, upon surrender of the Warrant, together with delivery of a duly executed Warrant exercise form, in the form attached hereto as Appendix A (the “Notice of Exercise”) and payment by cash, certified check or wire transfer of funds, or pursuant to a cashless exercise pursuant to Section 3(c) below, of the aggregate Warrant Price for that number of Warrant Shares then being purchased, to the Company during normal business hours on any business day at the Company’s principal executive offices (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to the Warrantholder). The Warrant Shares so purchased shall be deemed to be issued to the Warrantholder or the Warrantholder’s designee, as the record owner of such shares, as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered (or the date evidence of loss, theft or destruction thereof and security or indemnity satisfactory to the Company has been provided to the Company), the Warrant Price shall have been paid and the completed Notice of Exercise shall have been delivered. Certificates for the Warrant Shares so purchased shall be delivered to the Warrantholder within a reasonable time after this Warrant shall have been so exercised. The certificates so delivered shall be in such denominations as may be requested by the Warrantholder and shall be registered in the name of the Warrantholder or such other name as shall be designated by the Warrantholder, as specified in the Notice of Exercise. If this Warrant shall have been exercised only in part, then, unless this Warrant has expired, the Company shall, at its expense, at the time of delivery of such certificates, deliver to the Warrantholder a new Warrant representing the right to purchase the number of shares with respect to which this Warrant shall not then have been exercised. As used herein, “business day” means a day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, on which banks in New York City, New York are open for the general transaction of business. Each exercise hereof shall constitute the re-affirmation by the Warrantholder that the representations and warranties contained in the Purchase Agreement are true and correct in all material respects with respect to the Warrantholder as of the time of such exercise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to effect the exercise of the Warrant hereunder, the Warrantholder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company unless the entire Warrant is exercised. The Warrantholder and the Company shall maintain records showing the amount exercised and the dates of such exercise. The Warrantholder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provision of the paragraph, following exercise of a portion of the Warrant, the number of Warrant Shares of this Warrant may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.

2.1. Subject to the provisions of this Section 3, if there is (A) registration statement filed by the Company and declared effective by the SEC registering the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Warrantholder, and (B) the closing bid price of the Common Stock for each of twenty (20) consecutive Trading Days (which period shall not have commenced until after such registration statement shall have been declared effective by the SEC) equals or exceeds $4.00 per share (the “Threshold Price”) (subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Common Stock that occur after the date of the Purchase Agreement), then the Company may, within ten (10) Trading Days of such period, call for cancellation of all or any portion of this Warrant for which a Notice of Exercise has not yet been delivered (such right, a “Call”). To exercise this right, the Company must deliver to the Warrantholder an irrevocable written notice (a “Call Notice”), indicating therein the unexercised portion of this Warrant to which such notice applies. If the conditions set forth below for such Call are satisfied, from the period from the date of the Call Notice through and including the Call Date (as defined below), then any portion of this Warrant subject to such Call Notice for which a Notice of Exercise shall not have been received from and after the date of the Call Notice will be cancelled at 6:30 p.m. (Eastern Time) on the sixtieth (60th) Trading Day after the date the Call Notice is received by the Warrantholder (such date, the “Call Date”). Any unexercised portion of this Warrant to which the Call Notice does not pertain will be unaffected by such Call Notice. In furtherance thereof, the Company covenants and agrees that it will honor all Notices of Exercise with respect to Warrant Shares subject to a Call Notice that are tendered from the time of delivery of the Call Notice through 8:30 p.m. (Eastern Time) on the Call Date.

2.2. The parties agree that any Notice of Exercise delivered following a Call Notice shall first reduce to zero the number of Warrant Shares subject to such Call Notice prior to reducing the remaining Warrant Shares available for purchase under this Warrant. For example, if (x) this Warrant then permits the Warrantholder to acquire 100 Warrant Shares, (y) a Call Notice pertains to 75 Warrant Shares, and (z) prior to 6:30 p.m. (Eastern Time) on the Call Date the Warrantholder tenders a Notice of Exercise in respect of 50 Warrant Shares, then (1) on the Call Date the right under this Warrant to acquire 25 Warrant Shares will be automatically cancelled, (2) the Company, in the time and manner required under this Warrant, will have issued and delivered to the Warrantolder 50 Warrant Shares in respect of the exercise following receipt of the Call Notice, and (3) the Warrantholder may, until the Termination Date, exercise this Warrant for 25 Warrant Shares (subject to adjustment as herein provided and subject to subsequent Call Notices). Subject again to the provisions of this Section 3(b), the Company may deliver subsequent Call Notices for any portion of this Warrant for which the Warrantholder shall not have delivered a Notice of Exercise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Warrant, the Company may not deliver a Call Notice or require the cancellation of this Warrant (and any Call Notice will be void), unless, from the beginning of the twenty (20) consecutive Trading Days used to determine whether the Common Stock has achieved the Threshold Price through the Call Date, (i) the Company shall have honored in accordance with the terms of this Warrant all Notices of Exercise delivered by 6:30 p.m. (Eastern Time) on the Call Date, (ii) the registration statement shall be effective as to all Warrant Shares and the prospectus thereunder available for use by the Warrantholder for the resale of all such Warrant Shares and (iii) the Common Stock shall be listed or quoted for trading on the Trading Market.

2.3. For purposes of this Warrant, a “Trading Day” means (i) a day on which the Common Stock is traded or quoted on the NASDAQ, the NYSE Amex Equities Exchange, the New York Stock Exchange, or the OTC Bulletin Board, or any successor exchange to the foregoing (each a “Trading Market”), or (ii) if the Common Stock is not traded or quoted on a Trading Market, a day on which the Common Stock is quoted in the over-the-counter market as reported by Pink OTC Markets Inc. (or any similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting price); provided, that in the event that the Common Stock is not traded or quoted as set forth in (i), and (ii) hereof, that Trading Day shall mean a business day.

3. Subject to the provisions hereof, the Warrantholder may effect one or more cashless exercises by surrendering Warrants to the warrant agent or such other agent as designated by the Company and giving written notice that the Warrantholder wishes to effect a cashless exercise by surrendering some Warrants without exercise, upon which the Company shall issue, or cause to be issued, to the Warrantholder up to the number of Warrant Shares determined as follows:

X = Y x (A-B)/A

where:

X = the maximum number of Warrant Shares that may be issued to the Warrantholder;

Y = the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which the Warrant Certificates are being exercised;

A = the Market Price as of the Date of Exercise; and

B = the Exercise Price.

“Market Price” of a share of Common Stock on any date shall mean, (i) if the shares of Common Stock are listed on any national securities exchange, the average sale price of the Common Stock reported by such exchange during the twenty (20) Trading Day period to such date; (ii) if the shares of Common Stock are not quoted on a any such market or listed on any such exchange and the shares of Common Stock are traded in the over-the-counter market, the average price reported by the OTC Bulletin Board during the twenty (20) Trading Day period to such date; (iii) if the shares of Common Stock are not quoted on a any such market, listed on any such exchange or quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, then the average price quoted in the over-the-counter market as reported by the National Quotation Bureau Incorporated (or any similar organization or agency succeeding its functions of reporting prices) during the twenty (20) Trading Day period to such date; or (iv) if none of clauses (i)-(iii) are applicable, then as determined by mutual agreement of the Company and the Warrantholder; or if the Company and the Warrantholder are unable to agree on a Market Price, either party may submit the matter to arbitration as provided herein.

“Date of Exercise” means the date on which the Company has received from Warrantholder (i) the Warrant, and (ii) a written notice of election to exercise signed by Warrantholder and indicating the number of Warrant Shares to be purchased.

The rights granted herein shall not in any way limit any other remedies that a Warrantholder may have under the Registration Rights Agreement of even date herewith (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) or in any other agreement or any other remedies that may be available pursuant to applicable law for breach by the Company of the Registration Rights Agreement.

4. Company’s Failure to Timely Deliver Securities. If within seven (7) Trading Days after the Company’s receipt of the facsimile copy of a Notice of Exercise the Company shall fail to issue and deliver a certificate to the Warrantholder and register such shares of Common Stock on the Company’s share register or credit the Warrantholder’s balance account with the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Warrantholder is entitled upon the Warrantholder’s exercise hereunder or pursuant to the Company’s obligation set forth in clause (ii) below, and if on or after such Trading Day the Warrantholder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Warrantholder of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise that the Warrantholder anticipated receiving from the Company (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall, within six (6) business days after the Warrantholder’s request and in the Warrantholder’s discretion, either (i) pay cash to the Warrantholder in an amount equal to the Warrantholder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to deliver such certificate (and to issue such shares of Common Stock) or credit such Warrantholder’s balance account with DTC shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Warrantholder a certificate or certificates representing such shares of Common Stock or credit such Warrantholder’s balance account with DTC and pay cash to the Warrantholder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of shares of Common Stock, times (B) the Market Price on the date of exercise.

E. Compliance with the Securities Act of 1933. This Warrant may only be exercised by the Warrantholder if the Warrantholder is an “accredited investor” as defined by Rule 501 of Regulation D. The Company may cause the legend set forth on the first page of this Warrant to be set forth on each Warrant, and a similar legend on any security issued or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, unless counsel for the Company is of the opinion as to any such security that such legend is unnecessary.

F. Payment of Taxes. The Company will pay any documentary stamp taxes attributable to the initial issuance of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax or taxes which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of any certificates for Warrant Shares in a name other than that of the Warrantholder in respect of which such shares are issued, and in such case, the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificate for Warrant Shares or any Warrant until the person requesting the same has paid to the Company the amount of such tax or has established to the Company’s reasonable satisfaction that such tax has been paid. The Warrantholder shall be responsible for income taxes due under federal, state or other law, if any such tax is due.

G. Mutilated or Missing Warrants. In case this Warrant shall be mutilated, lost, stolen, or destroyed, the Company shall issue in exchange and substitution of and upon surrender and cancellation of the mutilated Warrant, or in lieu of and substitution for the Warrant lost, stolen or destroyed, a new Warrant of like tenor and for the purchase of a like number of Warrant Shares, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction of the Warrant, and with respect to a lost, stolen or destroyed Warrant, reasonable indemnity or bond with respect thereto, if requested by the Company.

H. Reservation of Common Stock. At any time when this Warrant is exercisable, the Company shall at all applicable times keep reserved until issued (if necessary) as contemplated by this Section 7, out of the authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock, at least a number of shares of Common Stock equal to 120% of the number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the exercise of all of this Warrant then outstanding. The Company agrees that all Warrant Shares issued upon due exercise of the Warrant shall be, at the time of delivery of the certificates for such Warrant Shares, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock of the Company.

I. Adjustments.

1. If the Company shall, at any time or from time to time while this Warrant is outstanding, pay a dividend or make a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares or combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or issue by reclassification of its outstanding shares of Common Stock any shares of its capital stock (including any such reclassification in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation), then (i) the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to the date on which such change shall become effective shall be adjusted by multiplying such Warrant Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such change and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such change and (ii) the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to the date on which such change shall become effective by a fraction, the numerator of which is shall be the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to the date on which such change shall become effective and the denominator of which shall be the Warrant Price in effect immediately after giving effect to such change, calculated in accordance with clause (i) above. Such adjustments shall be made successively whenever any event listed above shall occur.

2. If any capital reorganization, reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, consolidation or merger of the Company with another corporation in which the Company is not the survivor, or sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to another corporation shall be effected, then, as a condition of such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby each Warrantholder shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions herein specified and in lieu of the Warrant Shares immediately theretofore issuable upon exercise of the Warrant, such shares of stock, securities or assets as would have been issuable or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of Warrant Shares equal to the number of Warrant Shares immediately theretofore issuable upon exercise of the Warrant, had such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition not taken place, and in any such case appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of each Warrantholder to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provision for adjustment of the Warrant Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly equivalent as may be practicable in relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the exercise hereof. The Company shall not effect any such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger, or the corporation purchasing or otherwise acquiring such assets or other appropriate corporation or entity shall assume the obligation to deliver to the Warrantholder, at the last address of the Warrantholder appearing on the books of the Company, such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the Warrantholder may be entitled to purchase, and the other obligations under this Warrant. The provisions of this paragraph (b) shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or other dispositions.

3. In case the Company shall fix a payment date for the making of a distribution to all holders of Common Stock (including any such distribution made in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation) of evidences of indebtedness or assets (other than cash dividends or cash distributions payable out of consolidated earnings or earned surplus or dividends or distributions referred to in Section 8(a)), or subscription rights or warrants, the Warrant Price to be in effect after such payment date shall be determined by multiplying the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such payment date by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding multiplied by the Market Price per share of Common Stock immediately prior to such payment date, less the fair market value (as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors in good faith) of said assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed, or of such subscription rights or warrants, and the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding multiplied by such Market Price per share of Common Stock immediately prior to such payment date.

4. An adjustment to the Warrant Price shall become effective immediately after the payment date in the case of each dividend or distribution and immediately after the effective date of each other event which requires an adjustment.

5. In the event that, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this Section 8, the Warrantholder shall become entitled to receive any shares of capital stock of the Company other than shares of Common Stock, the number of such other shares so receivable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject thereafter to adjustment from time to time in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions with respect to the Warrant Shares contained in this Warrant.

6. To the extent permitted by applicable law and the listing requirements of any stock market or exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed, the Company from time to time may decrease the Warrant Price by any amount for any period of time if the period is at least twenty (20) days, the decrease is irrevocable during the period and the Board shall have made a determination that such decrease would be in the best interests of the Company, which determination shall be conclusive provided however, that the Warrant Price may not be decreased below the Market Price on the date of the execution of the Purchase Agreement. Whenever the Warrant Price is decreased pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Company shall provide written notice thereof to the Warrantholder at least five (5) days prior to the date the decreased Warrant Price takes effect, and such notice shall state the decreased Warrant Price and the period during which it will be in effect.

J. Fractional Interest. The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant. If any fractional share of Common Stock would, except for the provisions of the first sentence of this Section 9, be deliverable upon such exercise, the Company, in lieu of delivering such fractional share, shall pay to the exercising Warrantholder an amount in cash equal to the Market Price (determined in accordance with Section 3(b)) of such fractional share of Common Stock on the date of exercise.

K. Benefits. Nothing in this Warrant shall be construed to give any person, firm or corporation (other than the Company and the Warrantholder) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim, it being agreed that this Warrant shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Company and the Warrantholder.

L. Notices to Warrantholder. Upon the happening of any event requiring an adjustment of the Warrant Price, the Company shall promptly give written notice thereof to the Warrantholder at the address appearing in the records of the Company, stating the adjusted Warrant Price and the adjusted number of Warrant Shares resulting from such event and setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. Failure to give such notice to the Warrantholder or any defect therein shall not affect the legality or validity of the subject adjustment.

M. Identity of Transfer Agent. The Transfer Agent for the Common Stock is Colonial Stock Transfer in Salt Lake City, Utah. Upon the appointment of any subsequent transfer agent for the Common Stock or other shares of the Company’s capital stock issuable upon the exercise of the rights of purchase represented by the Warrant, the Company will mail to the Warrantholder a statement setting forth the name and address of such transfer agent.

N. Notices. Unless otherwise provided, any notice required or permitted under this Warrant shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given and received as hereinafter described (i) if given by personal delivery, then such notice shall be deemed received upon such delivery, (ii) if given by telex or facsimile, then such notice shall be deemed received upon receipt of confirmation of complete transmittal, (iii) if given by certified mail return receipt requested, then such notice shall be deemed received upon the day such return receipt is signed, and (iv) if given by an internationally recognized overnight air courier, then such notice shall be deemed given one business day after delivery to such carrier. Copies of such notices shall also be transmitted by email to the email address provided for on the signature page of the Purchase Agreement. All notices shall be addressed as follows: if to the Warrantholder, at its address as set forth in the Company’s books and records and, if to the Company, at the address as follows, or at such other address as the Warrantholder or the Company may designate by ten days’ advance written notice to the other:

O. Registration Rights.

P. Successors. All the covenants and provisions hereof by or for the benefit of the Warrantholder shall bind and inure to the benefit of its respective successors and assigns hereunder.

Q. Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. This Warrant shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of Texas, without reference to the choice of law provisions thereof. The Company and, by accepting this Warrant, the Warrantholder, each irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Xxxxxx County, Texas for the purpose of any suit, action, proceeding or judgment relating to or arising out of this Warrant and the transactions contemplated hereby.

The Company and, by accepting this Warrant, the Warrantholder, each irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of any such court in any such suit, action or proceeding and to the laying of venue in such court. The Company and, by accepting this Warrant, the Warrantholder, each irrevocably waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such courts and irrevocably waives any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

EACH OF THE COMPANY AND, BY ITS ACCEPTANCE HEREOF, THE WARRANTHOLDER HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO REQUEST A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION WITH RESPECT TO THIS WARRANT AND REPRESENTS THAT COUNSEL HAS BEEN CONSULTED SPECIFICALLY AS TO THIS WAIVER.

R. Dispute Resolution. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Market Price, the Company shall submit the disputed determinations via facsimile to the Warrantholder. If the Warrantholder and the Company are unable to agree upon such determination of the Market Price within three business days of such disputed determination being submitted to the Warrantholder, then the Company shall, within two business days, submit via facsimile the disputed determination of the Market Price to an independent, reputable investment bank selected by the Company and approved by the Warrantholder. The Company shall cause at its expense the investment bank to perform the determinations and notify the Company and the Warrantholder of the results no later than ten business days from the time it receives the disputed determinations or calculations. Such investment bank’s determination shall be binding upon all parties absent demonstrable error.

S. No Rights as Stockholder. Prior to the exercise of this Warrant, the Warrantholder shall not have or exercise any rights as a stockholder of the Company by virtue of its ownership of this Warrant.

T. Amendment; Waiver. Any term of this Warrant may be amended or waived (including the adjustment provisions included in Section 8 of this Warrant) upon the written consent of the Company and the Warrantholder.

U. Remedies; Other Obligations; Breaches and Injunctive Relief. The remedies provided in this Warrant shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the right of the Warrantholder right to pursue actual damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Warrant. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Warrantholder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Company therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the Warrantholder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, an injunction restraining any breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

V. Section Headings. The section headings in this Warrant are for the convenience of the Company and the Warrantholder and in no way alter, modify, amend, limit or restrict the provisions hereof.

X. Piggy-Back Registration Only.

1. In the event the Company proposes to register any of its stock or other securities under the 1933 Act in connection with the public offering of such securities solely for cash, it will, prior to such filing, give written notice to all Rights Holders of its intention to do so. Upon the written request of a Rights Holder given within ten (10) days after the Company provides such notice (which request shall state the intended method of disposition of such Registrable Securities), the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Registrable Securities which the Company has been requested by such Rights Holder to register to be registered under the 1933 Act to the extent necessary to permit their sale or other disposition in accordance with the intended methods of distribution specified in the request of such Rights Holder; provided that the Company shall have the right to postpone or withdraw any registration effected pursuant to this Section 2 without obligation to the Rights Holder.

2. If the registration for which the Company gives notice pursuant to Section 2(a) is a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Rights Holders as part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 2(a). In such an event, the right of any Rights Holder to include its Registrable Securities in such registration pursuant to this Section 2 shall be conditioned upon such Rights Holder’s participation in such underwriting on the terms set forth herein. All Rights Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall (together with the Company) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for the underwriting by the Company.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2, if the managing underwriter determines that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, the Company may limit the number of Registrable Securities to be included in such registration and underwriting to not less than thirty (30) percent of the aggregate number of shares to be underwritten. The Company shall so advise all Rights Holders requesting registration, and the number of shares that are entitled to be included in the registration and underwriting shall be allocated in the following manner. The number of shares that may be included in such registration and underwriting shall be allocated among all Rights Holders requesting registration in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective number of Registrable Securities which they held at the time the Company gives the notice specified in Section 2(a). If any Rights Holder would thus be entitled to include more securities than such Rights Holder requested to be registered, the excess shall be allocated among the other requesting Rights Holders pro-rata in the manner described in the preceding sentence. If any Rights Holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, such person may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company, and any Registrable Securities or other securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from such registration.

Y. Registration.

1. Registration Statements. If and whenever the Company elects to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under the 1933 Act, the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC one Registration Statement on Form S-3 (or, if Form S-3 is not then available to the Company, on such form of registration statement as is then available to effect a registration for resale of the Registrable Securities), covering the resale of securities equaling 100% of the Registrable Securities. Subject to any SEC comments, such Registration Statement shall include the plan of distribution attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Plan of Distribution”). Such Registration Statement also shall cover, to the extent allowable under the 1933 Act (including Rule 416), such indeterminate number of additional shares of Common Stock resulting from stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions with respect to the Registrable Securities. The Registration Statement (and each amendment or supplement thereto, and each request for acceleration of effectiveness thereof) shall be provided in accordance with Section 3(c) to the Rights Holders and their counsel prior to its filing or other submission. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it hereunder prior to the effectiveness of such registration whether or not any Rights Holders have elected to include Registrable Securities in such registration. The expenses of such withdrawn registration shall be borne by the Company.

2. Expenses. The Company will pay all expenses associated with each registration, including filing and printing fees, the Company’s counsel and accounting fees and expenses, costs associated with clearing the Registrable Securities for sale under applicable state securities laws, and listing fees, fees and expenses of one counsel to represent the Rights Holder and other similarly situated Rights Holders (not to exceed $15,000) and the Rights Holders’ reasonable expenses in connection with the registration, but excluding discounts, commissions, fees of underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers or similar securities industry professionals with respect to the Registrable Securities being sold.

3. Effectiveness.

3.1. In the event the Company elects to file a Registration Statement, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable. Any request for acceleration of the Registration Statement shall seek effectiveness at 5:00 p.m., New York time, or as soon thereafter as practicable. The Company shall notify the Rights Holders by facsimile or e-mail as promptly as practicable, and in any event, prior to 9:00 a.m., New York time, on the day after any Registration Statement is declared effective, shall file with the SEC under Rule 424 a final Prospectus as promptly as practicable, and in any event, prior to 9:00 a.m., New York time, on the day after any Registration Statement is declared effective, and shall advise the Rights Holders in writing that either (i) it has complied with the requirements of Rule 172 or (ii) it is unable to satisfy the conditions of Rule 172 and, as a result, Rights Holders are required to deliver a copy of the Prospectus in connection with any sales of Registrable Securities (in which case, the Company shall deliver to the Rights Holders a copy of the Prospectus to be used in connection with the sale or other disposition of the securities covered thereby).

3.2. For not more than twenty (20) consecutive days or for a total of not more than forty-five (45) days in any twelve (12) month period, the Company may delay the disclosure of material non-public information concerning the Company, by suspending the use of any Prospectus included in any registration contemplated by this Section containing such information, the disclosure of which at the time is not, in the good faith opinion of the Company, in the best interests of the Company (an “Allowed Delay”); provided, that the Company shall promptly (a) notify the Rights Holders in writing of the existence of (but in no event, without the prior written consent of a Rights Holder, shall the Company disclose to the Rights Holder any of the facts or circumstances regarding) material non-public information giving rise to an Allowed Delay, (b) advise the Rights Holder in writing and obtain the written agreement of such Rights Holder to maintain the strictest confidentiality regarding any material non-public information of which such Rights Holder may become aware, (c) to cease all purchases and sales under the Registration Statement until the end of the Allowed Delay, and (d) use commercially reasonable efforts to terminate an Allowed Delay as promptly as practicable.

4. Limitation on Damages. In no event shall the Company be liable for total, aggregate damages in excess of an aggregate of 6.0% of the aggregate amount invested by the Rights Holders pursuant to the Purchase Agreement; and (ii) in no event shall damages payable to any Rights Holder exceed 6% of the aggregate amount invested by such Rights Holder.

Z. Company Obligations.

7. immediately notify the Rights Holders, at any time prior to the end of the Effectiveness Period, upon discovery that, or upon the happening of any event as a result of which, the Prospectus includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing, and promptly prepare, file with the SEC and furnish to such holder a supplement to or an amendment of such Prospectus as may be necessary so that such Prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing; and

8. otherwise use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC under the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act, including, without limitation, Rule 172 under the 1933 Act, file any final Prospectus, including any supplement or amendment thereof, with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424 under the 1933 Act, promptly inform the Rights Holders in writing if, at any time during the Effectiveness Period, the Company does not satisfy the conditions specified in Rule 172 and, as a result thereof, the Rights Holders are required to deliver a Prospectus in connection with any disposition of Registrable Securities and take such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to facilitate the registration of the Registrable Securities hereunder; and make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, but not later than the Availability Date (as defined below), an earnings statement covering a period of at least twelve (12) months, beginning after the effective date of each Registration Statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the 1933 Act, including Rule 158 promulgated thereunder (for the purpose of this subsection 4(h), “Availability Date” means the 45th day following the end of the fourth fiscal quarter that includes the effective date of such Registration Statement, except that, if such fourth fiscal quarter is the last quarter of the Company’s fiscal year, “Availability Date” means the 90th day after the end of such fourth fiscal quarter).

9. With a view to making available to the Rights Holders the benefits of Rule 144 of the 1933 Act (or its successor rule) and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Rights Holders to sell shares of Common Stock to the public without registration, the Company covenants and agrees to: (i) use commercially reasonable efforts to make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, until the earlier of (A) six months after such date as all of the Registrable Securities may be resold pursuant to Rule 144 without regard to any volume limitation requirements under Rule 144 or (B) such date as all of the Registrable Securities shall have been resold; (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the 1934 Act; and (iii) furnish to each Rights Holder upon request, as long as such Rights Holder owns any Registrable Securities, (A) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of the 1934 Act, (B) a copy of the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and (C) such other information as may be reasonably requested in order to avail such Rights Holder of any rule or regulation of the SEC that permits the selling of any such Registrable Securities without registration.

AA. Due Diligence Review; Information. The Company shall make available, during normal business hours, for inspection and review by the Rights Holders, advisors to and representatives of the Rights Holders (who may or may not be affiliated with the Rights Holders and who are reasonably acceptable to the Company), all financial and other records, all filings with the SEC, and all other corporate documents and properties of the Company as may be reasonably necessary for the purpose of such review, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees, within a reasonable time period, to supply all such information reasonably requested by the Rights Holders or any such representative, advisor or underwriter in connection with such Registration Statement (including, without limitation, in response to all questions and other inquiries reasonably made or submitted by any of them), prior to and from time to time after the filing and effectiveness of the Registration Statement for the sole purpose of enabling the Rights Holders and such representatives, advisors and underwriters and their respective accountants and attorneys to conduct initial and ongoing due diligence with respect to the Company and the accuracy of such Registration Statement.

BB. Obligations of the Rights Holders.

1. Should the Company, in its sole discretion, decide to file a Registration Statement, each Rights Holder shall furnish in writing to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities held by it, as shall be reasonably required by the provisions of this Agreement to effect the registration of such Registrable Securities and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request, including a completed questionnaire in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B. At least ten (10) Business Days prior to the first anticipated filing date of any Registration Statement, the Company shall notify each Rights Holder of the information the Company requires from such Rights Holder if such Rights Holder elects to have any of the Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement. A Rights Holder shall provide such information to the Company at least two (2) Business Days prior to the first anticipated filing date of such Registration Statement if such Rights Holder elects to have any of the Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement.

2. Each Rights Holder, by its acceptance of the Registrable Securities agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of a Registration Statement hereunder, unless such Rights Holder has notified the Company in writing of its election to exclude all of its Registrable Securities from such Registration Statement.

3. Each Rights Holder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of either (i) the commencement of an Allowed Delay pursuant to Section 3(c)(ii) or (ii) the happening of an event pursuant to Section 4(g) hereof, such Rights Holder will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities, until the Rights Holder is advised by the Company that such dispositions may again be made.

4.

The Company is not required to disclose any confidential information to any Inspector unless and until such Inspector has entered into a confidentiality agreement (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company) with the Company with respect thereto, substantially in the substance of this Section 6(d). Each Investor will, upon learning that disclosure of confidential information is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt notice to the Company and allow the Company, at the Company’s expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, the information deemed confidential. Nothing herein will be deemed to limit the Investor’s ability to sell Registrable Securities in a manner that is otherwise consistent with applicable laws and regulations.

5. No Investor may participate in any underwritten distribution hereunder unless such Investor (a) agrees to sell such Investor’s Registrable Securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements applicable to such distribution, (b) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements, and (c) agrees to pay its pro rata share of all underwriting discounts and commissions applicable with respect to its Registrable Securities.

The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Rights Holder and its officers, directors, members, employees and agents, successors and assigns, and each other person, if any, who controls such Rights Holder within the meaning of the 1933 Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they may become subject under the 1933 Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any preliminary Prospectus or final Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereof; (ii) any blue sky application or other document executed by the Company specifically for that purpose or based upon written information furnished by the Company filed in any state or other jurisdiction in order to qualify any or all of the Registrable Securities under the securities laws thereof (any such application, document or information herein called a “Blue Sky Application”); (iii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (iv) any violation by the Company or its agents of any rule or regulation promulgated under the 1933 Act applicable to the Company or its agents and relating to action or inaction required of the Company in connection with such registration; or (v) any failure to register or qualify the Registrable Securities included in any such Registration in any state where the Company or its agents has affirmatively undertaken or agreed in writing that the Company will undertake such registration or qualification on a Rights Holder’s behalf and will reimburse such Rights Holder, and each such officer, director, member, employee, agent, successor and assign, and each such controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that (i) the Company will not be liable in any such case if and to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so made in conformity with information furnished by such Rights Holder or any such controlling person in writing specifically for use in such Registration Statement or Prospectus, and (ii) does not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any loss, claim, damage or liability if such settlement is made without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.

2. Indemnification by the Rights Holders. Each Rights Holder agrees, severally but not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company, its directors, officers, employees, stockholders and each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the 0000 Xxx) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expense (including reasonable attorney fees) resulting from (i) any untrue statement of a material fact or any omission of a material fact required to be stated in the Registration Statement or Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto or any Blue Sky Application or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, to the extent, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information furnished in writing by such Rights Holder to the Company specifically for inclusion in such Registration Statement or Prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (iii) any violation by the Rights Holder or its agents of any rule or regulation promulgated under the 1933 Act applicable to the Rights Holder or its agents and relating to action or inaction required of the Rights Holder in connection with such registration. In no event shall the liability of a Rights Holder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds (net of all expense paid by such Rights Holder in connection with any claim relating to this Section 7 and the amount of any damages such Rights Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue statement or omission) received by such Rights Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement giving rise to such indemnification obligation. In addition, a Rights Holder shall not be liable hereunder to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) or expense arises out of the Company’s, or any underwriter’s, or their representatives’ failure to send or give a copy of a final Prospectus, as the same may be then supplemented or amended, to the person or entity asserting an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of securities to such person or entity if such statement or omission was corrected in such final Prospectus.

3. Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Any person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification and (ii) permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided that any person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such person unless (a) the indemnifying party has agreed to pay such fees or expenses, (b) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such person or (c) in the reasonable judgment of any such person, based upon written advice of its counsel, a conflict of interest exists between such person and the indemnifying party with respect to such claims (in which case, if the person notifies the indemnifying party in writing that such person elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such claim on behalf of such person); and provided, further, that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that such failure to give notice shall materially adversely affect the indemnifying party in the defense of any such claim or litigation. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for fees or expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all such indemnified parties. No indemnifying party will, except with the consent of the indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation.

4. Contribution. If for any reason the indemnification provided for in the preceding paragraphs (a) and (b) is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient to hold it harmless, other than as expressly specified therein, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act shall be entitled to contribution from any person not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In no event shall the contribution obligation of a holder of Registrable Securities be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds (net of all expenses paid by such holder in connection with any claim relating to this Section 7 and the amount of any damages such holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission) received by it upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such contribution obligation.

DD. Miscellaneous.

1. Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement may be amended only by a writing signed by the Company and the holders of a majority of the then-outstanding Registrable Securities. The Company may take any action herein prohibited, or omit to perform any act herein required to be performed by it, only if the Company shall have obtained the written consent to such amendment, action or omission to act, of the person adversely affected by such action or omission.

4. Assignments and Transfers by the Company.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties hereby waive any provision of law which renders any provisions hereof prohibited or unenforceable in any respect.

9. Further Assurances. The parties shall execute and deliver all such further instruments and documents and take all such other actions as may reasonably be required to carry out the transactions contemplated hereby and to evidence the fulfillment of the agreements herein contained.

Exhibit A

Plan of Distribution

The selling stockholders, which as used herein includes donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest selling shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock received after the date of this prospectus from a selling stockholder as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other transfer, may, from time to time, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of their shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These dispositions may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices.

The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of shares or interests therein:

ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

privately negotiated transactions;

short sales effected after the date the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part is declared effective by the SEC;

through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;

a combination of any such methods of sale; and

any other method permitted by law.

The selling stockholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus. The selling stockholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

In connection with the sale of our common stock or interests therein, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of our common stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

The aggregate proceeds to the selling stockholders from the sale of the common stock offered by them will be the purchase price of the common stock less discounts or commissions, if any. Each of the selling stockholders reserves the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of common stock to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from this offering. Upon any exercise of the warrants by payment of cash, however, we will receive the exercise price of the warrants.

The selling stockholders also may resell all or a portion of the shares in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, provided that they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of that rule.

The selling stockholders and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents that participate in the sale of the common stock or interests therein may be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act. Any discounts, commissions, concessions or profit they earn on any resale of the shares may be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Selling stockholders will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act, unless an exemption therefrom is available.

To the extent required, the shares of our common stock to be sold, the names of the selling stockholders, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agents, dealer or underwriter, any applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.

In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the common stock may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the common stock may not be sold unless it has been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.

There can be no assurance that any selling shareholder will sell any or all of the shares of common stock registered pursuant to the shelf registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part.

We have advised the selling stockholders that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the selling stockholders and their affiliates. In addition, to the extent applicable we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the selling stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling stockholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and state securities laws, relating to the registration of the shares offered by this prospectus.

We will pay all our expenses of the registration of the shares of common stock pursuant to the registration rights agreement, including, without limitation, Securities and Exchange Commission filing fees and expenses of compliance with state securities or “blue sky” laws.

We have agreed with the selling stockholders to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part effective until the earlier of (1) such time as all of the shares covered by this prospectus have been disposed of pursuant to and in accordance with the registration statement or (2) the date on which the shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act without regard to any volume limitation requirements under Rule 144 of the Securities Act.

Answer:

APPENDIX A

DEFINITIONS OF CERTAIN TERMS

IN QUESTIONNAIRE

(Arranged alphabetically)

1. “Affiliate.” An “affiliate” of any entity is a person that, directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by or is under common control with such person (for example, a parent subsidiary or sister corporation).

2. “Associate.” “Associate” for the purpose of Question 4 means (1) any corporation or organization (other than the Company or a majority-owned subsidiary of the Company) of which you are an officer or partner or are, directly or indirectly, the beneficial owner of 10% or more of any class of equity securities; (2) any trust or other estate in which you have a substantial beneficial interest or as to which you serve as a trustee or in a similar fiduciary capacity; and (3) any member of your immediate family. “Associate” for the purpose of Question 13 means the same as the foregoing, except that subsection (1) shall state “any corporation or organization ... of which you are an executive officer ...”

3. “Beneficial Ownership.”

a. General Rule. Under the rules of the SEC, you are deemed to “beneficially own” or be the “beneficial owner” of any security with respect to which you have or share, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, agreement or otherwise: (1) Voting Power (which includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of, such security); and/or (2) Investment Power (which includes the power to dispose, or to direct the disposition of, such security). You are also the beneficial owner of a security if you, directly or indirectly, create or use a trust, proxy, power of attorney, pooling arrangement or any other contract, arrangement, or device with the purpose or effect of divesting yourself of beneficial ownership of a security or preventing the vesting of such beneficial ownership.

Some specific applications of the above definition of beneficial ownership are:

(i) Family situations. Although the determination of beneficial ownership of securities is necessarily a question to be determined in light of the facts of each particular case, family relationships may result in your having, or sharing, the power to vote, or direct the voting of, or dispose, or direct the disposition of, shares held by your family members. In view of the broad definition of “Beneficial Ownership,” it may be prudent to include such shares in your beneficial ownership disclosure and then disclaim beneficial ownership of such securities pursuant to Question 6.

(ii) Shares held by others for your benefit. There are numerous instances in which you may have, or share, voting or investment power (as defined above) over securities, although the securities are held by another person or entity. For example, you may have or share such power in securities held for you or your family members living with you by custodians, brokers, relatives, executors, administrators or trustees; securities held for your account by pledgees; securities owned by a partnership in which you are a member; and securities owned by a corporation which is or should be regarded as a personal holding company of yours or is controlled by you.

(iii) Shares held by you for the benefit of others. Beneficial ownership of securities also includes securities held in your name as a trustee, custodian or other fiduciary where you have, or share, voting or investment power with respect to such securities.

b. Options and other rights to acquire securities. In addition to being beneficial owner of securities over which you have, or share, voting or investment power, the SEC has determined that you are deemed to be the beneficial owner of a security if you have a right to acquire beneficial ownership of (i.e., the right to obtain or share voting or investment power over) such security at any time within sixty days. Examples of such rights would include the right to acquire: (i) through the exercise of any option, warrant or similar right; (ii) through conversion of any security; or (iii) pursuant to the power to revoke, or the provision for automatic termination of, a trust, discretionary account or similar arrangement. Also, if you have acquired or hold any options, convertible securities or power to revoke such a trust with the “purpose or effect” of changing or influencing control of the Company, you are deemed the beneficial owner of the underlying securities upon such acquisition, without regard to the sixty-day rule stated above.

4. “Control.” The term “control” means the possession, direct or indirect, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of the Company, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise. An executive officer or director of a company generally is considered to control that company. It is suggested that, if you are in doubt as to the meaning of “control” in a particular context, you communicate with counsel.

5. “Equity Security.” The definition of “equity security” encompasses more than common and preferred stock. It includes for instance convertible debt instruments as well as warrants and options to acquire stock or similar securities. If you have a question as to the proper characterization of your holdings you should consult with the Company’s legal counsel.

6. “Executive Officer.” “Executive officer” for the purpose of this Questionnaire means the president of a company, any vice president of it in charge of a principal business unit, division or function (such as sales, administration or finance), any other officer who performs a policy-making function or any other person who performs similar policy-making functions for the company. Executive officers of subsidiaries may be deemed executive officers of a company if they perform such policy-making functions for the company.

7. “Group.” A “group” exists when two or more persons act as a partnership, limited partnership, syndicate or other group for the purpose of acquiring, holding or disposing of securities of any issuer.

8. “Immediate Family.” “Immediate family” for the purpose of this Questionnaire includes your spouse, parents, children, siblings, mothers-and fathers-in-law, sons- and daughters-in-law, and brothers- and sisters-in-law.

9. “Officer.” “Officer” means a president, vice president, secretary, treasurer or principal financial officer, comptroller or principal accounting officer, and any person routinely performing corresponding functions with respect to any organization whether incorporated or unincorporated.

10. “Person.” “Person” for the purpose of this Questionnaire means an individual, a corporation, a partnership, an association, a joint-stock company, a business trust, an unincorporated organization, or any other entity.

11. “Personal Benefits.” The SEC’s prior interpretive releases on what the SEC views as a personal benefit or a “perk,” were previously rescinded by Item 402 and as most recently revised, Item 402 does not specifically define “personal benefit.” Item 402, however, does not require disclosure of personal benefits for any individual if the aggregate amount paid to that individual is less than the lesser of (i) $50,000 or (ii) 10% of that individual’s compensation. In general, the position of the SEC has been that benefits which are directly related to job performance, as well as benefits provided to broad categories of employees and which do not discriminate in scope or terms of operation in favor of officers and directors, may be omitted from the calculation of total compensation, while benefits not so related should be disclosed as compensation. If you have any questions, please resolve the issue in favor of disclosure. The Company will review the necessity for disclosure in the proxy statement with its counsel.

12. “Transaction or Transactions.” “Transaction” or “transactions” is to be understood in its broadest sense, and includes the direct or indirect receipt of anything of value. No transaction or interest therein need be disclosed where: (a) the rates or charges involved in the transaction are determined by competitive bids, or the transaction involves the rendering of services as a common or contract carrier or public utility at rates or charges fixed in conformity with law or governmental authority; (b) the transaction involves services as a bank depository of funds, transfer agent, registrar, trustee under a trust indenture or similar services; or (c) the interest in question arises solely from the ownership of securities of the Company and the interested party receives no extra or special benefit not shared on a pro-rata basis by all shareholders.
