Agent shall cancel the Certificate upon the surrender thereof and shall deliver a new Warrant
Certificate or Warrant Certificates of like tenor, which the Warrant Agent shall countersign, for
the balance of such Warrants. In the case that the attempted exercise of all of the Warrants
represented thereby would require the issuance of a fractional share of Common Stock, the Warrants
shall be deemed to have been exercised for the nearest whole number of shares of Common Stock into
which the Warrants may be exercised. No half shares or fractional shares will be issued by the
Company. The Warrant Agent shall not permit the exercise of any single Warrants for one half share
of Common Stock.
4
3. Form and Execution of Warrant Certificates. The Warrant Certificates shall be
substantially in the form attached as Exhibit “A” and may have such letters, numbers or other marks
of identification and such legends, summaries or endorsements printed, lithographed or engraved
thereon as the Company may deem appropriate and as are not inconsistent with the provisions of this
Agreement. The Warrant Certificates shall be dated as of the date of issuance, whether on initial
issuance, transfer, exchange or in lieu of mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed Warrant
Certificates.
Each Warrant Certificate for Firm Warrants shall be initially issued only when attached to a
certificate representing the same number of Firm Shares of Common Stock as Firm Warrants and shall
be separately transferable from the certificate representing Firm Shares only on and after the
Separation Date. Warrant Certificates issued for Over-Allotment Warrants shall be issued together
with certificates representing the same number of shares of Common Stock as Over-Allotment Warrants
and shall be separately transferable only on and after the Separation Date.
The Warrant Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its President and
Secretary, by manual signatures or by facsimile signatures printed thereon, and shall have
imprinted thereon a facsimile of the Company’s seal. The Warrant Certificates shall be manually
countersigned by the Warrant Agent and shall not be valid for any purpose unless so countersigned.
In the event any officer of the Company who executed the Warrant Certificates shall cease to be an
officer of the Company before the date of issuance of the Warrant Certificates or before
countersignature and delivery by the Warrant Agent, such Warrant Certificates may be countersigned,
issued and delivered by the Warrant Agent with the same force and effect as though the person who
signed such Warrant Certificates had not ceased to be an officer of the Company.
4. Exercise. The exercise of Warrants in accordance with this Agreement shall
only be permitted during the Exercise Period.
Warrants shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately prior to the close of business on
the Exercise Date. The exercise form shall be executed by the Registered Owner thereof or his
attorney duly authorized in writing and shall be delivered together with payment to the Warrant
Agent, in cash or by official bank or certified check, of an amount in lawful money of the United
States of America. Such payment shall be in an amount equal to the Exercise Price as hereinabove
defined.
The person entitled to receive the number of Warrant Shares deliverable on such exercise shall
be treated for all purposes as the Registered Owner of such Warrant Shares as of the close of
business on the Exercise Date. The Company shall not be obligated to issue any fractional share
interests in Warrant Shares. If Warrants represented by more than one Warrant Certificate shall be
exercised at one time by the same Registered Owner, the number of full Warrant Shares which shall
be issuable on exercise thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of full
Warrant Shares issuable on such exercise.
As soon as practicable on or after the Exercise Date and in any event within 30 days after
such date, the Warrant Agent shall cause to be issued and delivered by the Transfer Agent to the
person or persons entitled to receive the same, a certificate or certificates for the number of
Warrant Shares deliverable on such exercise. No adjustment shall be made in respect of cash
dividends on Warrant Shares deliverable on exercise of any Warrant. The Warrant Agent shall
promptly notify the Company and CGF, in writing, of any exercise and of the number of Warrant
Shares caused to be delivered, and shall cause payment of an amount in cash equal to the Exercise
Price to be made promptly to the order of the Company. The parties contemplate such payments will
be made by the Warrant Agent to the Company on a weekly basis and will consist of collected funds
only. The Warrant Agent shall hold any proceeds collected and not yet paid to the Company in a
Federally-insured account at a commercial bank selected by agreement of the Company and
5
the Warrant Agent, at all times relevant hereto. Following a determination by the Warrant Agent
that collected funds have been received, the Warrant Agent shall cause the Transfer Agent to issue
share certificates representing the number of Warrant Shares purchased by the Registered Owner.
Expenses incurred by the Warrant Agent, including administrative costs, costs of maintaining
records and other expenses, shall be paid by the Company according to the standard fees imposed by
the Warrant Agent for such services. All expenses incurred by the Warrant Agent shall be invoiced
to the Company.
A detailed accounting statement setting forth the number of Warrants exercised, the number of
Warrant Shares issued, the net amount of exercised funds and all expenses incurred by the Warrant
Agent shall be transmitted to the Company on payment of each exercise amount. Such accounting
statement shall serve as an interim accounting for the Company during the Exercise Period. The
Warrant Agent shall render to the Company, at the completion of the Exercise Period, a complete
accounting setting forth the number of Warrants exercised, the identity of persons exercising such
Warrants, the number of Warrant Shares issued, the amounts distributed to the Company, and all
expenses incurred by the Warrant Agent.
At any time upon exercise of Warrants commencing one (1) year following the Effective Date and
during the Exercise Period, if (i) the Market Price (as hereinafter defined) of the Company’s
Common Stock is equal to or greater than the Exercise Price, (ii) the exercise of the Warrant is
solicited by an Underwriter at a time when such Underwriter is a member of the National Association
of Securities Dealers, Inc., (iii) the Warrant is not held in a discretionary account, and (iv) the
solicitation of the Warrant is not in violation of Regulation M promulgated under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, then the soliciting Underwriter shall be entitled to receive from the Company
upon exercise of each Warrant so exercised, a fee of five percent (5%) of the aggregate price of
the Warrants so exercised (the “Exercise Fee”). Within five (5) days after the end of each month
commencing one (1) year following the Effective Date, the Warrant Agent shall notify the
Representative of each Warrant Certificate which has been properly completed for exercise by
holders of Warrants during the preceding month. The Warrant Agent will provide the Representative
with the following information in connection with the exercise of each Warrant: the Exercise Date;
the name of the soliciting Underwriter and such other information as the Representative shall
reasonably request that is available from the records of the Warrant Agent. The Company hereby
authorizes and instructs the Warrant Agent to deliver to the soliciting Underwriter(s), if known to
the Warrant Agent, or to the Representative if not so known, the Exercise Fee, prior to payment to
the Company of the net proceeds of the exercise of such Warrant. The Representative may, at any
time commencing one (1) year following the Effective Date and continuing until six (6) months
following expiration of the Exercise Period, during business hours, examine the records of the
Warrant Agent, including its ledger of original Warrant Certificates returned to the Warrant Agent
upon the exercise of Warrants, in order to allow the Representative to confirm the aggregate
Exercise Fee to which it is entitled hereunder. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to
the contrary, the provisions of this paragraph may not be amended, modified or deleted without the
prior written consent of the Representative.
The Company may be required to deliver a prospectus that satisfies the requirements of Section
10 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”) with delivery of the Warrant Shares
and must have a registration statement (or a post-effective amendment to an existing registration
statement) effective under the 1933 Act in order for the Company to comply with any such prospectus
delivery requirements. The Company will advise the Warrant Agent of the status of any such
registration statement under the 1933 Act and of the effectiveness of the Company’s registration
statement or lapse of effectiveness.
No issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made unless there is an effective registration
statement under the 1933 Act, and registration or qualification of the Warrant Shares, or an
exemption therefrom, has been obtained from state or other regulatory authorities in the
jurisdiction in which such Warrant Shares are sold.
6
The Company will provide to the Warrant Agent written confirmation of all such registration or
qualification, or an exemption therefrom, when requested by the Warrant Agent.
5. Redemption. Commencing four months from the Effective Date, the Company may,
at its option, redeem the Warrants in whole, but not in part, for a redemption price of $0.25 per
Warrant, on not less than 30 days’ notice to the Registered Owners. The right to redeem the
Warrants may be exercised by the Company following such four month period and during the Exercise
Period only in the event (i) the closing sale price for the Company’s shares of Common Stock has
equaled or exceeded $______ for 10 consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date of the
Company’s notice of redemption, (ii) any notice of the call for redemption is given not more than
five (5) business days after the conclusion of the 10 consecutive trading days referred to in the
foregoing (i), (iii) the Company has a registration statement (or a post-effective amendment to an
existing registration statement) pertaining to the Warrant Shares effective with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, which registration statement would enable a Registered Owner to receive upon
exercise, one or more certificates evidencing the Warrant Shares, without legend restricting the
transferability of such Warrant Shares, and (iv) the expiration of the 30 day notice period is
within the Exercise Period. In the event the Company exercises its right to redeem the Warrants,
the Expiration Date will be deemed to be, and the Warrants will be exercisable until the close of
business on, the date fixed for redemption in such notice. If any Warrant called for redemption is
not exercised by such time, it will cease to be exercisable and the Registered Owner thereof will
be entitled only to the redemption price.
6. Reservation of Shares and Payment of Taxes. The Company covenants that it
will at all times reserve and have available from its authorized shares of Common Stock such number
of shares of Common Stock as shall then be issuable on exercise of all outstanding Warrants. The
Company covenants that all Warrant Shares issuable shall be duly and validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable, and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof.
The Registered Owner shall pay all documentary, stamp or similar taxes and other government
charges that may be imposed with respect to the issuance of the Warrants, or the issuance, transfer
or delivery of any Warrant Shares on exercise of the Warrants. In the event the Warrant Shares are
to be delivered in a name other than the name of the Registered Owner of the Warrant Certificates,
no such delivery shall be made unless the person requesting the same has paid to the Warrant Agent
or Transfer Agent the amount of any such taxes or charges incident thereto.
The Company will supply the Warrant Agent with blank Warrant Certificates, so as to maintain
an inventory satisfactory to the Warrant Agent. The Company will file with the Warrant Agent a
statement setting forth the name and address of its Transfer Agent for Warrant Shares and of each
successor Transfer Agent, if any.
7. Registration of Transfer. The Warrant Certificates may be transferred in
whole or in part and may be separately transferred from the Common Stock share certificate to which
such Warrant Certificate is attached only following the Separation Date and during the Exercise
Period. Warrant Certificates to be exchanged shall be surrendered to the Warrant Agent at its
corporate office. The Company shall execute and the Warrant Agent shall countersign, issue and
deliver in exchange therefor, the Warrant Certificate or Certificates that the holder making the
transfer shall be entitled to receive.
The Warrant Agent shall keep transfer books at its corporate office on which Warrant
Certificates and the transfer thereof shall be registered. On due presentment for registration of
transfer of any Warrant Certificate at such office, the Company shall execute and the Warrant Agent
shall issue and deliver to the transferee or transferees a new Warrant Certificate or Certificates
representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants.
7
All Warrant Certificates presented for registration of transfer or exercise shall be duly
endorsed or be accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory
to the Company and the Warrant Agent.
Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer thereof, the Company and the Warrant
Agent may treat the Registered Owner of any Warrant Certificate as the absolute owner thereof
(notwithstanding any notations of ownership or writing thereon made by anyone other than the
Company or the Warrant Agent) and the parties hereto shall not be affected by any notice to the
contrary.
8. Loss or Mutilation. On receipt by the Company and the Warrant Agent of
evidence satisfactory as to the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any
Warrant Certificate, the Company shall execute and the Warrant Agent shall countersign and deliver
in lieu thereof, a new Warrant Certificate representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants. In
the case of loss, theft or destruction of any Warrant Certificate, the Registered Owner requesting
issuance of a new Warrant Certificate shall be required to secure an indemnity bond in favor of the
Company and Warrant Agent in an amount satisfactory to each of them. In the event a Warrant
Certificate is mutilated, such Certificate shall be surrendered and cancelled by the Warrant Agent
prior to delivery of a new Warrant Certificate. Applicants for a substitute Warrant Certificate
shall also comply with such other regulations and pay such other reasonable charges as the Company
may prescribe.
9. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Shares.
(a) If at any time prior to the expiration of the Warrants by their terms or by exercise,
the Company increases or decreases the number of its issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock,
or changes in any way the rights and privileges of such shares of Common Stock, by means of (i) the
payment of a share dividend or the making of any other distribution on such shares of Common Stock
payable in its shares of Common Stock, (ii) a split or subdivision of shares of Common Stock, or
(iii) a consolidation or combination of shares of Common Stock, then the Exercise Price in effect
at the time of such action and the number of Warrants required to purchase each Warrant Share at
that time shall be proportionately adjusted so that the numbers, rights and privileges relating to
the Warrant Shares then purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants shall be increased, decreased
or changed in like manner, for the same aggregate purchase price set forth in the Warrants, as if
the Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants immediately prior to the event had
been issued, outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable at the time of that event. Any dividend paid
or distributed on the shares of Common Stock in shares of any other class of shares of the Company
or securities convertible into shares of Common Stock shall be treated as a dividend paid in shares
of Common Stock to the extent shares of Common Stock are issuable on the payment or conversion
thereof.
(b) In the event, prior to the expiration of the Warrants by exercise or by their terms, the
Company shall be recapitalized by reclassifying its outstanding shares of Common Stock into shares
with a different par value, or by changing its outstanding shares of Common Stock to shares without
par value or in the event of any other material change in the capital structure of the Company or
of any successor corporation by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization or conveyance,
prompt, proportionate, equitable, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby any
Registered Owner of the Warrants shall thereafter have the right to purchase, on the basis and the
terms and conditions specified in this Agreement, in lieu of the Warrant Shares theretofore
purchasable on the exercise of any Warrant, such securities or assets as may be issued or payable
with respect to or in exchange for the number of Warrant Shares theretofore purchasable on exercise
of the Warrants had such reclassification, recapitalization or conveyance not taken place; and in
any such event, the rights of any Registered Owner of a Warrant to any adjustment in the number of
8
Warrant Shares purchasable on exercise of such Warrant, as set forth above, shall continue and be
preserved in respect of any stock, securities or assets which the Registered Owner becomes entitled
to purchase.
(c) In the event the Company, at any time while the Warrants shall remain unexpired and
unexercised, shall sell all or substantially all of its property, or dissolves, liquidates or winds
up its affairs, prompt, proportionate, equitable, lawful and adequate provision shall be made as
part of the terms of such sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up such that the Registered
Owner of a Warrant may thereafter receive, on exercise thereof, in lieu of each Warrant Share which
he would have been entitled to receive, the same kind and amount of any stock, securities or assets
as may be issuable, distributable or payable on any such sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding
up with respect to each share of Common Stock of the Company; provided, however, that in the event
of any such sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, the right to exercise the Warrants shall
terminate on a date fixed by the Company, such date to be not earlier than 5:00 P.M., Eastern Time,
on the 30th day next succeeding the date on which notice of such termination of the right to
exercise the Warrants has been given by mail to the Registered Owners thereof at such addresses as
may appear on the books of the Company.
(d) In the event prior to the expiration of the Warrants by exercise or by their terms, the
Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to
purchase its shares of Common Stock at a price per share more than 10% below the then-current
market price per share (as defined below) at the date of taking such record, then, (i) the number
of Warrant Shares purchasable pursuant to the Warrants shall be redetermined as follows: the number
of Warrant Shares purchasable pursuant to a Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment (taking
into account fractional interests to the nearest 1,000th of a share) shall be multiplied by a
fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company
outstanding (excluding shares of Common Stock then owned by the Company) immediately prior to the
taking of such record, plus the number of additional shares offered for purchase, and the
denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company outstanding
(excluding shares of Common Stock owned by the Company) immediately prior to the taking of such
record, plus the number of shares which the aggregate offering price of the total number of
additional shares so offered would purchase at such current market price; and (ii) the Exercise
Price per Warrant Share purchasable pursuant to a Warrant shall be redetermined as follows: the
Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the taking of such record shall be multiplied by a
fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately prior to
the taking of such record, and the denominator of which is the number of Warrant Shares purchasable
immediately after the taking of such record as determined pursuant to clause (i) above; provided,
however, (i) that any adjustment in the number of shares issuable as set forth above shall be
effective only to the extent sufficient shares of Common Stock have been registered through a
registration statement effective under the 1933 Act, and (ii) that any adjustment in the Exercise
Price does not cause the Company to receive proceeds in excess of the amount authorized by any such
registration statement. For the purposes of any computation hereunder, the “Current Market Price”
at any date shall be the closing price of the Common Stock on the business day next preceding the
event requiring an adjustment hereunder. If the principal trading market for such securities is an
exchange, the closing price shall be the reported last sale price on such exchange on such day
provided if trading of such Common Stock is listed on any consolidated tape, the closing price
shall be the reported last sale price set forth on such consolidated tape. If the principal trading
market for such securities is the over-the-counter market, the closing price shall be the last
reported sale price on such date as set forth by The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc., or, if the security
is not quoted on such market, the average closing bid and asked prices as set forth in the National
Quotation Bureau pink sheet or the Electronic Bulletin Board System for such day. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if there is no reported last sale price or average closing bid and asked prices, as
the case may be, on a date prior to the event requiring an adjustment hereunder, then the Current
Market Price shall be determined as of the latest date prior to such day for which such last sale
price or average closing bid and asked price is available.
9
(e) The Warrants are exercisable in even numbers at the option of the holder for whole
shares of the Company’s Common Stock. No fractional interests will be issued. In the case of the
exercise of less than all the Warrants represented in a Certificate, the Warrant Agent shall cancel
the Certificate upon the surrender thereof and shall deliver a new Warrant Certificate or Warrant
Certificates of like tenor, which the Warrant Agent shall countersign, for the balance of such
Warrants. In the case that the attempted exercise of all of the Warrants represented thereby would
require the issuance of a fractional share of Common Stock, the Warrants shall be deemed to have
been exercised for the nearest whole number of shares of Common Stock into which the Warrants may
be exercised. No half shares or fractional shares will be issued by the Company. The Warrant Agent
shall not provide for the exercise of any single Warrants for one half share of Common Stock.
(f) In the event, prior to expiration of the Warrants by exercise or by their terms, the
Company shall determine to take a record of the holders of its shares of Common Stock for the
purpose of determining shareholders entitled to receive any stock dividend, distribution or other
right which will cause any change or adjustment in the number, amount, price or nature of the
shares of Common Stock or other stock, securities or assets deliverable on exercise of the Warrants
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Company shall give to the Registered Owners of the
Warrants at the addresses as may appear on the books of the Company at least 30 days’ prior written
notice to the effect that it intends to take such a record provided, however, that notice to the
Registered Owners of an extension of the Expiration Date may be made by publication or by release
to Dow Xxxxx, X.X. Newswire or other means of general distribution. Such notice shall specify the
date as of which such record is to be taken; the purpose for which such record is to be taken; and
the number, amount, price and nature of the shares of Common Stock or other stock, securities or
assets which will be deliverable on exercise of the Warrants after the action for which such record
will be taken has been completed. Without limiting the obligation of the Company to provide notice
to the Registered Owners of the Warrants of any corporate action hereunder, the failure of the
Company to give notice shall not invalidate such corporate action of the Company.
(g) The Warrants shall not entitle the Registered Owner thereof to any of the rights of
shareholders or to any dividend declared on the shares of Common Stock unless the Warrant is
exercised and the Warrant Shares purchased prior to the record date fixed by the Board of Directors
of the Company for the determination of holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to such dividend
or other right.
(h) No adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made as a result of or in connection with
(i) the issuance of shares of Common Stock of the Company pursuant to options, warrants, employee
stock ownership plans and share purchase agreements outstanding or in effect on the date hereof,
(ii) the establishment of additional option plans of the Company, the modification, renewal or
extension of any plan now in effect or hereafter created, or the issuance of shares of Common Stock
on exercise of any options pursuant to such plans, and (iii) the issuance of shares of Common Stock
in connection with compensation arrangements for officers, employees or agents of the Company or
any subsidiary, and the like.
(i) The Company shall be empowered, in the sole and unconditional discretion of the Board
of Directors, at any time during the Exercise Period, to reduce the applicable Exercise Price of
all but not part of the Warrants then outstanding. Any such reduction in the applicable Exercise
Price shall be effective upon written notice to the Warrant Agent, which notice shall be given
pursuant to a duly and validly authorized resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company. Any
such reduction in the Exercise Price shall not entitle the Registered Owners to issuance of any
additional Common Shares pursuant to the adjustment provisions set forth elsewhere herein,
regardless of whether the reduction in the Exercise Price was effected either prior to or following
exercise of Warrants by the Registered Owners thereof. A nonexercising Registered Owner shall have
no remedy or rights to receive any additional Warrant Shares as a result of any reduction in any
applicable Exercise Price pursuant to this subsection. Any reduction in the Exercise Price shall be
effective for minimum periods of not less than ten (10) business days.

10. Duties, Compensation and Termination of Warrant Agent. The Warrant Agent
shall act hereunder as agent and in a ministerial capacity for the Company, and its duties shall be
determined solely by the provisions hereof. The Warrant Agent shall not, by issuing and delivering
Warrant Certificates or by any other act hereunder, be deemed to make any representations as to the
validity, value or authorization of the Warrant Certificate or the Warrants represented thereby or
of the Warrant Shares or other property delivered on exercise of any Warrant. The Warrant Agent
shall not be under any duty or responsibility to any holder of the Warrant Certificates to make or
cause to be made any adjustment of the Exercise Price or to determine whether any fact exists which
may require any such adjustments.
The Warrant Agent shall not (i) be liable for any recital or statement of fact contained
herein or for any action taken or omitted by it in reliance on any Warrant Certificate or other
document or instrument believed by it in good faith to be genuine and to have been signed or
presented by the proper party or parties, (ii) be responsible for any failure on the part of the
Company to comply with any of its covenants and obligations contained in this Agreement or in the
Warrant Certificates, or (iii) be liable for any act or omission in connection with this Agreement
except for its own negligence or willful misconduct.
The Warrant Agent may at any time consult with counsel satisfactory to it (who may be counsel
for the Company) and shall incur no liability or responsibility for any action taken or omitted by
it in good faith in accordance with the opinion or advice of such counsel.
Any notice, statement, instruction, request, direction, order or demand of the Company shall
be sufficiently evidenced by an instrument signed by its President and attested by its Secretary or
Assistant Secretary. The Warrant Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted by it in
accordance with such notice, statement, instruction, request, direction, order or demand.
The Company agrees to pay the Warrant Agent reasonable compensation for its services hereunder
and to reimburse the Warrant Agent for its reasonable expenses. The Company further agrees to
indemnify the Warrant Agent against any and all losses, expenses and liabilities, including
judgments, costs and counsel fees, for any action taken or omitted by the Warrant Agent in the
execution of its duties and powers hereunder, excepting losses, expenses and liabilities arising as
a result of the Warrant Agent’s negligence or willful misconduct.
The Warrant Agent may resign its duties or the Company may terminate the Warrant Agent and the
Warrant Agent shall be discharged from all further duties and liabilities hereunder (except
liabilities arising as a result of the Warrant Agent’s own negligence or willful misconduct) on 30
days’ prior written notice to the other party. At least 12 days prior to the date such resignation
is to become effective, the Warrant Agent shall cause a copy of such notice of resignation to be
mailed to the Registered Owner of each Warrant Certificate. On such resignation or termination, the
Company shall appoint a new Warrant Agent. If the Company shall fail to make such appointment
within a period of 30 days after it has been notified in writing of the resignation by the Warrant
Agent, then the Registered Owner of any Warrant Certificate may apply to any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a new Warrant Agent. Any new Warrant Agent, whether appointed
by the Company or by such court, shall be a bank or trust company having a capital and surplus, as
shown by its last published report to its shareholders, of not less than $1,000,000, and having its
principal office in the United States.
After acceptance in writing of an appointment of a new Warrant Agent is received by the
Company, such new Warrant Agent shall be vested with the same powers, rights, duties and
responsibilities as if it had been originally named herein as the Warrant Agent, without any
further assurance, conveyance, act or deed; provided, however, if it shall be necessary or
expedient to execute and deliver any further assurance, conveyance, act or deed, the same shall be
done at the expense of the Company and shall be legally and
11
validly executed. The Company shall file a notice of appointment of a new Warrant Agent with the
resigning Warrant Agent and shall forthwith cause a copy of such notice to be mailed to the
Registered Owner of each Warrant Certificate.
Any corporation into which the Warrant Agent or any new Warrant Agent may be converted or
merged, or any corporation resulting from any consolidation to which the Warrant Agent or any new
Warrant Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate trust business of
the Warrant Agent shall be a successor Warrant Agent under this Agreement, provided that such
corporation is eligible for appointment as a successor to the Warrant Agent. Any such successor
Warrant Agent shall promptly cause notice of its succession as Warrant Agent to be mailed to the
Company and to the Registered Owner of each Warrant Certificate. No further action shall be
required for establishment and authorization of such successor Warrant Agent.
The Warrant Agent, its officers or directors and it subsidiaries or affiliates may buy, hold
or sell Warrants or other securities of the Company and otherwise deal with the Company in the same
manner and to the same extent and with like effect as though it were not the Warrant Agent. Nothing
herein shall preclude the Warrant Agent from acting in any other capacity for the Company.
11. Modification of Agreement. The Warrant Agent and the Company may by
supplemental agreement make any changes or corrections in this Agreement they shall deem
appropriate to cure any ambiguity or to correct any defective or inconsistent provision or mistake
or error herein contained. Additionally, the parties may make any changes or corrections deemed
necessary which shall not adversely affect the interests of the Registered Owners of Warrant
Certificates; provided, however, this Agreement shall not otherwise be modified, supplemented or
altered in any respect except with the consent in writing of the Registered Owners of Warrant
Certificates representing not less than a majority of the Warrants outstanding. Additionally, no
change in the number or nature of the Warrant Shares purchasable on exercise of a Warrant or the
Exercise Price therefore shall be made without the consent in writing of the Registered Owner of
the Warrant Certificate representing such Warrant, other than such changes as are specifically
prescribed by this Agreement.
12. Notices. All notices, demands, elections, opinions or requests (however
characterized or described) required or authorized hereunder shall be deemed given sufficiently in

pronounced void, voidable, invalid, unenforceable or inoperative for any reason by any court of
competent jurisdiction, government authority or otherwise, such holding, declaration or

otherwise remain in full force and effect and be enforced in accordance with its terms, and the
effect of such holding, declaration or pronouncement shall be limited to the territory or
jurisdiction in which made.
16. Waiver. All the rights and remedies of either party under this Agreement are
cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights and remedies as provided by law. No delay or
failure on the part of either party in the exercise of any right or remedy arising from a breach of
this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any subsequent right or remedy arising from a
subsequent breach of this Agreement. The consent of any party where required hereunder to any act
or occurrence shall not be deemed to be a consent to any other action or occurrence.
17. General Provisions. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in
accordance with, and governed by, the laws of the State of California. Except as otherwise
expressly stated herein, time is of the essence in performing hereunder. This Agreement embodies
the entire agreement and understanding between the parties and supersedes all prior agreements and
understandings relating to the subject matter hereof, and this Agreement may not be modified or
amended or any term or provision hereof waived or discharged except in writing signed by the party
against whom such amendment, modification, waiver or discharge is sought to be enforced. The
headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise
affect the meaning thereof. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the
same instrument.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed as of
the date first above mentioned.
