for
the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, which, unless otherwise required

for
the number of Warrant Shares so indicated by the Holder to be
purchased.
(b) The
Company's obligations to issue and deliver Warrant Shares in accordance with
the
terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or
inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect
to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or
any
action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation
or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder or any other
Person of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation
of
law by the Holder or any other Person, and irrespective of any other
circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to
the
Holder in connection with the issuance of Warrant Shares. Nothing herein shall
limit a Holder's right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder,
at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific
performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company's failure
to
timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon exercise
of
the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or
transfer tax, withholding tax, transfer agent fee or other incidental tax or
expense in respect of the issuance of such certificates, all of which taxes
and
expenses shall be paid by the Company; provided, however, that the Company
shall
not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer
involved in the registration of any certificates for Warrant Shares or Warrants
in a name other than that of the Holder. The Holder shall be responsible for
all
other tax liability that may arise as a result of holding or transferring this
Warrant or receiving Warrant Shares upon exercise hereof.
7. Replacement
of Warrant.
If this
Warrant is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or
cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation
hereof, or in lieu of and substitution for this Warrant, a New Warrant, but
only
upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss,
theft or destruction and customary and reasonable indemnity (which shall not
include a surety bond), if requested. Applicants for a New Warrant under such
circumstances shall also comply with such other reasonable regulations and
procedures and pay such other reasonable third-party costs as the Company may
prescribe. If a New Warrant is requested as a result of a mutilation of this
Warrant, then the Holder shall deliver such mutilated Warrant to the Company
as
a condition precedent to the Company’s obligation to issue the New
Warrant.
8. Reservation
of Warrant Shares.
The
Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out
of
the aggregate of its authorized but unissued and otherwise unreserved Common
Stock, solely for the purpose of enabling it to issue Warrant Shares upon
exercise of this Warrant as herein provided, the number of Warrant Shares which
are then issuable and deliverable upon the exercise of this entire Warrant,
free
from preemptive rights or any other contingent purchase rights of persons other
than the Holder (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of
Section
9).
The
Company covenants that all Warrant Shares so issuable and deliverable shall,
upon issuance and the payment of the applicable Exercise Price in accordance
with the terms hereof, be duly and validly authorized, issued and fully paid
and
nonassessable.
9. Certain
Adjustments.
The
Exercise Price and number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this
Section
9.
(a) Stock
Dividends and Splits.
If the
Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) pays a stock
dividend on its Common Stock or otherwise makes a distribution on any class
of
capital stock that is payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivides
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, or (iii)
combines outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares,
then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction
of
which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Any
adjustment made pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph shall become effective
immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled
to receive such dividend or distribution, and any adjustment pursuant to clause
(ii) or (iii) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the
effective date of such subdivision or combination. If any event requiring an
adjustment under this paragraph occurs during the period that an Exercise Price
is calculated hereunder, then the calculation of such Exercise Price shall
be
adjusted appropriately to reflect such event.
3
(b) Fundamental
Transactions.
If, at
any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (1) the Company effects any merger
or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (2) the Company
effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series
of
related transactions, (3) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the
Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common
Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities,
cash or property, or (4) the Company effects any reclassification of the Common
Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is
effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property
(in any such case, a "Fundamental
Transaction"),
then
the Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon exercise of this
Warrant, the same amount and kind of securities, cash or property as it would
have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental
Transaction if it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction,
the holder of the number of Warrant Shares then issuable upon exercise in full
of this Warrant (the "Alternate
Consideration").
For
purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price shall
be
appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the
amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common
Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the
Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner
reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate
Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the
securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then
the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration
it
receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental
Transaction. At the Holder's option and request, any successor to the Company
or
surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall, either (1) issue to
the
Holder a new warrant substantially in the form of this Warrant and consistent
with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holder's right to purchase
the
Alternate Consideration for the aggregate Exercise Price upon exercise thereof,
or (2) purchase the Warrant from the Holder for a purchase price, payable in
cash within five Trading Days after such request (or, if later, on the effective
date of the Fundamental Transaction), equal to the Black Scholes value of the
remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date of such request.
The
terms of any agreement pursuant to which a Fundamental Transaction is effected
shall include terms requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply
with the provisions of this paragraph (b) and insuring that the Warrant (or
any
such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent
transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction.
4
(c) Number
of Warrant Shares.
Simultaneously with any adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to paragraph
(a) of this Section, the number of Warrant Shares that may be purchased upon
exercise of this Warrant shall be increased or decreased proportionately, so
that after such adjustment the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder for
the adjusted number of Warrant Shares shall be the same as the aggregate
Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment.
(d) Calculations.
All
calculations under this Section
9
shall be
made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th
of a
share, as applicable. The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any
given time shall not include shares owned or held by or for the account of
the
Company, and the disposition of any such shares shall be considered an issue
or
sale of Common Stock.
(e) Notice
of Adjustments.
Upon
the occurrence of each adjustment pursuant to this Section
9,
the
Company at its expense will promptly compute such adjustment in accordance
with
the terms of this Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such
adjustment, including a statement of the adjusted Exercise Price and adjusted
number or type of Warrant Shares or other securities issuable upon exercise
of
this Warrant (as applicable), describing the transactions giving rise to such
adjustments and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based.
Upon written request, the Company will promptly deliver a copy of each such
certificate to the Holder and to the Company's Transfer Agent.
(f) Notice
of Corporate Events.
If the
Company (i) declares a dividend or any other distribution of cash, securities
or
other property in respect of its Common Stock, including without limitation
any
granting of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any capital stock
of
the Company or any Subsidiary, (ii) authorizes or approves, enters into any
agreement contemplating or solicits stockholder approval for any Fundamental
Transaction or (iii) authorizes the voluntary dissolution, liquidation or
winding up of the affairs of the Company, then the Company shall deliver to
the
Holder a notice describing the material terms and conditions of such
transaction, at least 10 calendar days prior to the applicable record or
effective date on which a Person would need to hold Common Stock in order to
participate in or vote with respect to such transaction, and the Company will
take all steps reasonably necessary in order to insure that the Holder is given
the practical opportunity to exercise this Warrant prior to such time so as
to
participate in or vote with respect to such transaction; provided, however,
that
the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the
validity of the corporate action required to be described in such
notice.
10. Payment
of Exercise Price.
The
Holder may pay the Exercise Price in one of the following manners:
(a) Cash
Exercise.
The
Holder may deliver immediately available funds; or
5
(b) Cashless
Exercise.
The
Holder may notify the Company in an Exercise Notice of its election to utilize
cashless exercise, in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder the
number of Warrant Shares determined as follows:
X
= Y
[(A-B)/A]
where:
X
= the
number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder.
Y
= the
number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is being
exercised.
A
= the
average of the closing prices for the five Trading Days immediately prior to
(but not including) the Exercise Date.
B
= the
Exercise Price.
For
purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, it is intended,
understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a cashless
exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and
the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced,
on
the date this Warrant was originally issued.
11. No
Rights as Stockholder.
Until
the exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall not have or exercise any rights
by virtue hereof as a stockholder of the Company.
12. No
Fractional Shares.
No
fractional shares of Warrant Shares will be issued in connection with any
exercise of this Warrant. In lieu of any fractional shares which would,
otherwise be issuable, the Company shall pay cash equal to the product of such
fraction multiplied by the closing price of one Warrant Share as reported by
the
applicable Trading Market on the date of exercise.
14. Notices.
Any and
all notices or other communications or deliveries hereunder (including, without
limitation, any Exercise Notice) shall be in writing and shall be deemed given

or

as the Company shall so notify the Holder, or (ii) if to the Holder, to the
address or facsimile number appearing on the Warrant Register or such other
address or facsimile number as the Holder may provide to the Company in
accordance with this Section.
15. Warrant
Agent.
The
Company shall serve as warrant agent under this Warrant. Upon 10 days' notice
to
the Holder, the Company may appoint a new warrant agent. Any corporation into
which the Company or any new warrant agent may be merged or any corporation
resulting from any consolidation to which the Company or any new warrant agent
shall be a party or any corporation to which the Company or any new warrant
agent transfers substantially all of its corporate trust or shareholders
services business shall be a successor warrant agent under this Warrant without
any further act. Any such successor warrant agent shall promptly cause notice

Register.
