as

of this Agreement, or as may be required to comply with any law or with any

any
of the Warrant Certificates shall cease to be such officer of the Company before
the date of issuance of the Warrant Certificates or before countersignature
by

the
same force and effect as though the person who signed such Warrant Certificates
had not ceased to be such officer of the Company. After countersignature by
the
Warrant Agent, Warrant Certificates shall be delivered by the Warrant Agent
to
the Registered Holder without further action by the Company, except as otherwise
provided by Section 4 hereof.
SECTION
4. EXERCISE AND REDEMPTION
3
4.1.
Each
Warrant may be exercised by the Registered Holder thereof at any time on or
after the Initial Exercise Date, but not after the Warrant Expiration Date,
upon
the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein and in the Warrant
Certificate. A Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately prior
to the close of business on the Exercise Date and the person entitled to receive
the Common Stock deliverable upon such exercise shall be treated for all
purposes as the holder upon exercise thereof as of the close of business on
the
Exercise Date. As soon as practicable on or after the Exercise Date, the Warrant
Agent shall deposit the proceeds received from the exercise of a Warrant and
shall notify the Company in writing, by mail or by telecopy of the exercise
of
the Warrants. Promptly following, and in any event within three (3) days after
the date of such notice from the Warrant Agent, the Warrant Agent, on behalf
of
the Company, 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 securities deliverable upon such exercise, (plus a Warrant
Certificate for any remaining unexercised Warrants of the Registered Holder)
unless within 24 hours of the receipt of the notice, the Company shall instruct
the Warrant Agent by telecopy to refrain from causing such issuance of Warrant
Certificates pending clearance of checks received in payment of the Purchase
Price pursuant to such Warrants. Upon the exercise of any Warrant and clearance
of the funds received, the Warrant Agent shall promptly remit the payment
received for the Warrant to the Company or as the Company may direct in
writing.
4.2.
The
Company reserves the right to call the Warrants, at any time after__________,
2007 and prior to their exercise, with a notice of call in writing to the
Registered Holders, giving 30 days' notice of such call at any time after the
Warrant becomes exercisable. The call price of the Warrants is to be $.10 per
Warrant. Any Warrant either not exercised, or tendered back to the Company
by
the end of the date specified in the notice of call, shall be canceled on the
books of the Company and have no further value except for the $.10 call
price.
SECTION
5. RESERVATION OF SHARES; LISTING; PAYMENT OF TAXES; ETC.
5.1.
The
Company's Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of 200,000,000 shares
of Common Stock. The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and
keep available out of its authorized Common Stock, solely for the purpose of
issue upon exercise of Warrants, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall
be issuable upon the exercise of all outstanding Warrants. The Company covenants
that all shares of Common Stock which shall be issuable upon exercise of the
Warrants shall, at the time of delivery, be duly and validly issued, fully
paid,
nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the
issue thereof (other than those which the Company shall promptly pay or
discharge).
5.2.
Warrants
may not be exercised by, or shares of Common Stock issued to, any Registered
Holder in any state in which such exercise would be unlawful. The Warrant Agent
will not have any duty or responsibility for determining if the registration
would be unlawful.
5.3.
The
Company shall pay all documentary, stamp or similar taxes and other governmental
charges that may be imposed with respect to the issuance of Warrants, or the
issuance, or delivery of any shares upon exercise of the Warrants; provided,
however, that if the shares of Common Stock are to be delivered in a name other
than the name of the Registered Holder of the Warrant Certificate representing
any Warrant being exercised, then no such delivery shall be made unless the
person requesting the same has paid to the Warrant Agent the amount of transfer
taxes or charges incident thereto, if any.
4
5.4.
The
Warrant Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized to requisition the Company's
Transfer Agent from time to time for certificates representing shares of Common
Stock required upon exercise of the Warrants, and the Company will authorize
the
Transfer Agent to comply with all such proper requisitions. The Company will
file with the Warrant Agent a statement setting forth the name and address
of
the Transfer Agent of the Company for shares of Common Stock issuable upon
exercise of the Warrants.
SECTION
6. EXCHANGE AND REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER.
6.1.
Warrant
Certificates may be exchanged for other Warrant Certificates representing an
equal aggregate number of Warrants of the same class or may be transferred
in
whole or in part. Warrant Certificates to be exchanged shall be surrendered
to
the Warrant Agent at the Corporate Office, and upon satisfaction of the terms
and provisions hereof, the Company shall execute and the Warrant Agent shall
countersign, issue and deliver in exchange therefore the Warrant Certificate
or
Certificates which the Registered Holder making the exchange shall be entitled
to receive.
6.2.
The
Warrant Agent shall keep at the Corporate Office books in which, subject to
such
reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, it shall register Warrant
Certificates and the transfer thereof in accordance with its regular practice.
Upon due presentment for registration or 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 of the same
class.
6.3.
With
respect to all Warrant Certificates presented for registration or transfer,
or
for exchange or exercise, the Warrant Agent shall from time to time register
the
transfer, exchange or exercise of any outstanding Warrant Certificate upon
records maintained by the Warrant Agent for such purpose upon surrender of
such
Warrant Certificate to the Warrant Agent, accompanied by appropriate instruments
of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Warrant Agent and duly
executed by the Registered Holder or a duly authorized attorney.
6.4.
A
service charge may be imposed by the Warrant Agent for registration or transfer
or for exchange of Warrant Certificates. In addition, the Company may require
payment by such holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith.
5
6.5.
All
Warrant Certificates surrendered for exercise or for exchange in case of
mutilated Warrant Certificates shall be promptly canceled by the Warrant Agent
and thereafter retained by the Warrant Agent until termination of this Agreement
or resignation as Warrant Agent, or, disposed of or destroyed, at the direction
of the Company, within the retention guidelines prescribed by any Federal,
State
or banking regulatory authority.
6.6.
Prior to
due presentment for registration or transfer thereof, the Company and the
Warrant Agent may deem and treat the Registered Holder of any Warrant
Certificate as the absolute owner thereof and of each Warrant represented
thereby (notwithstanding any notations of ownership or writing thereon made
by
anyone other than a duly authorized officer of the Company or the Warrant Agent)
for all purposes and shall not be affected by any notice to the
contrary.
SECTION
7. LOSS OR MUTILATION.
7.1.
Upon
receipt by the Company and the Warrant Agent of evidence satisfactory
to them of the ownership of and loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any
Warrant Certificate and (in case of loss, theft or destruction)
of indemnity satisfactory to them, and (in the case of mutilation) upon
surrender and cancellation thereof the Company shall execute and the Warrant
Agent shall (in the absence of notice to the Company and/or Warrant Agent that
the Warrant Certificate has been acquired by a bonafide purchaser) countersign
and deliver to the Registered Holder in lieu thereof a new Warrant Certificate
of like tenor representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants of that same
class. Applicants for a substitute Warrant Certificate shall comply with such
other reasonable regulations and pay such other reasonable charges as the
Warrant Agent may prescribe.
SECTION
8. ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK OR
WARRANTS.
8.1.
The
Company may elect, upon any adjustment of the Purchase Price hereunder, to
adjust the number of Warrants of each or any class outstanding, in lieu of
the
adjustment in the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise
of each Warrant as hereinabove provided, so that each Warrant outstanding after
such adjustment shall represent the right to purchase one share of Common Stock.
Each Warrant held of record prior to such adjustment of the number of Warrants
of each or any class shall become that number of Warrants (calculated to the
nearest tenth) determined by multiplying the number one by a fraction, the
numerator of which shall be the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior
to
stock adjustment and the denominator of which shall be the Purchase Price in
effect immediately after such adjustment. Upon each adjustment of the number
of
Warrants pursuant to this Section 8.1, the Company shall, as promptly as
practicable, cause to be distributed to each Registered Holder of Warrant
Certificates on the date of such adjustment Warrant Certificates evidencing,
subject to Section 9 hereof, the number of additional Warrants of each class
to
which such Registered Holder shall be entitled as a result of such adjustment
or, at the option of the Company, cause to be distributed to such Registered
Holder in substitution and replacement for the Warrant Certificates held by
him
prior to the date of adjustment (and upon surrender thereof, if required by
the
Company) new Warrant Certificates evidencing the number of Warrants of each
class to which such Registered Holder shall be entitled after such
adjustment.
6
8.2.
In case
of any reclassification, capital reorganization or other change of outstanding
shares of Common Stock, or in case of any consolidation or merger of the Company
with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which
the Company is the continuing corporation and which does not result in any
reclassification, capital reorganization or other change of outstanding shares
of Common Stock), or in case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation
of
the property of the Company as, or substantially as, an entirety (other than
a
sale/leaseback, mortgage or other financing transaction), the Company shall
cause effective provision to be made so that each holder of a Warrant then
outstanding shall have the right thereafter, by exercising such Warrant, to
purchase the kind and number of shares of stock or other securities or property
(including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, capital reorganization
or other change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance by a holder of the
number of shares of Common Stock that might have been purchased upon exercise
of
such Warrant immediately prior to such reclassification, capital reorganization
or other change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance. Any such provision
shall include provision for adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent
as
may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 8.2. The
foregoing provisions shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications,
capital reorganizations and other changes of outstanding shares of Common
Stock
and
to
successive consolidations, mergers, sales or conveyances.
8.3.
After
each adjustment of the Purchase Price pursuant to this Section 8, the Company
will promptly prepare a certificate signed by the President and by the Secretary
or an Assistant Secretary, of the Company setting forth:
(a)
the
Purchase price as so adjusted,
(b)
the
number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of each Warrant
after
such adjustment, and, if the Company shall have elected to adjust the number
of
Warrants, the number of Warrants to which the Registered Holder of each Warrant
shall then be entitled, and
(c)
a brief
statement of facts accounting for such adjustment. The Company will promptly
file such certificate with the Warrant Agent and cause a brief summary thereof
to be sent by ordinary first class mail to each registered holder of Warrants
at
his last address as it shall appear on the registry books of the Warrant Agent.
No failure to mail such notice nor any defect therein or in the mailing thereof
shall affect the validity thereof except as to the Registered Holder to whom
the
Company failed to mail such notice, or except as to the Registered Holder whose
notice was defective. The affidavit of an officer of the Warrant Agent or the
Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company that such notice has been
mailed shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts
stated therein.
7
8.4.
As used
in this Section 8, the term "Common Stock" shall mean and include the Company's
Common Stock authorized on the date of the original issue of the Warrants and
shall also include any capital stock of any class of the Company thereafter
authorized which shall not be limited to a fixed sum or percentage in respect
of
the rights of the holders thereof to participate in dividends and in the
distribution of assets upon the voluntary liquidation, dissolution or winding
up
of the Company; provided, however, that the shares issuable upon exercise of
the
Warrants shall include only shares of such class designated in the Company's
Articles of Incorporation as Common Stock on the date of the original issue
of
the Warrants or (i), in the case of any reclassification, change, consolidation,
merger, sale or conveyance of the character referred to in Section 8.2, hereof,
the stock, securities or property provided for in such section or (ii), in
the
case of any reclassification or change in the outstanding shares of Common
Stock
issuable upon exercise of the Warrants as a result of a subdivision or
combination or consisting of a change in par value, or from par value to no
par
value, or from no par value to par value, such shares of Common Stock as so
reclassified or changed.
8.5.
Any
determination as to whether an adjustment in the Purchase Price in effect
hereunder is required pursuant to Section 8, or as to the amount of any such
adjustment, if required, shall be binding upon the holders of the Warrants
and
the Company if made in good faith by the Board of Directors of the
Company.
8.6.
The
Warrant Agent assumes no responsibility for any determination under this Section
and will act only in accordance with the written directions of the Company
and
its counsel.
SECTION
9. FRACTIONAL WARRANTS AND FRACTIONAL SHARES.
9.1.
If the
number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of each Warrant
is adjusted pursuant to Section 8 hereof, the Company shall nevertheless not
be
required to issue fractions of shares, upon exercise of the Warrants or
otherwise, or to distribute certificates that evidence fractional shares. With
respect to any fraction of a share called for upon any exercise hereof, the
Company shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash equal to such fraction
multiplied by the current market value of such fractional shares, determined
as
follows:
(a)
If the
Common Stock is listed on a national securities exchange or admitted to unlisted
trading privileges on such exchange or listed for trading on the Nasdaq Stock
Market, the current value shall be the last reported sale price of the Common
Stock on such exchange on the last business day prior to the date of exercise
of
this Warrant or if no such sale is made on such day, the average closing bid
and
asked prices
for such day on such exchange; or
8
(b)
If the
Common Stock is not listed or admitted to unlisted trading privileges, the
current value shall be the mean of the last reported bid and asked prices
reported by the National Quotation Bureau, Inc. on the last business day prior
to the date of the exercise of this Warrant; or
(c)
If the
Common Stock is not so listed or admitted to unlisted trading privileges and
bid
and asked prices are not so reported, the current value shall be an amount
determined in such reasonable manner as may be prescribed by the Board of
Directors of the Company.
SECTION
10. WARRANT HOLDERS NOT DEEMED STOCKHOLDERS.
10.1.
No
Registered Holder shall, as such, be entitled to vote or to receive dividends
or
be deemed the holder of Common Stock that may at any time be issuable upon
exercise of such Warrants for any purpose whatsoever, nor shall anything
contained herein be construed to confer upon the Registered Holder, as such,
any
of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote for the
election of directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any
meeting thereof or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether
upon any recapitalization, issue or reclassification of stock, change of par
value or change of stock to no par value, consolidation, merger or conveyance
or
otherwise), or to receive notice of meetings, or to receive dividends or
subscription rights, until such Registered Holder shall have exercised such
Warrants and been issued shares of Common Stock in accordance with the
provisions hereof.
SECTION
11. RIGHTS OF ACTION.
11.1.
All
rights of action with respect to this Agreement are vested in the respective
Registered Holders, and any Registered Holder, without consent of the Warrant
Agent or of the holder of any other Warrant, may, in his own behalf and for
his
own benefit, enforce against the Company his right to exercise his Warrants
for
the purchase of shares of Common Stock in the manner provided in the Warrant
Certificate and this Agreement.

Company, the Warrant Agent and every other holder of a Warrant
that:
(a)
The
Warrants are transferable only on the registry books of the Warrant Agent by
the
Registered Holder thereof in person or by his attorney duly authorized in
writing and only if the Warrant Certificates representing such Warrants are
surrendered at the office of the Warrant Agent, duly endorsed or accompanied
by
a proper instrument of transfer satisfactory to the Warrant Agent and the
Company in their sole discretion, together with payment of any applicable
transfer taxes; and
9
(b)
The
Company and the Warrant Agent may deem and treat the person in whose name the
Warrant Certificate is registered as the holder and as the absolute, true and
lawful owner of the Warrants represented thereby for all purposes, and neither
the Company nor the Warrant Agent shall be affected by an notice of knowledge
to
the contrary, except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 6
hereof.
SECTION

If the
Company shall purchase or acquire any Warrant or Warrants, the Warrant

delivered to the Warrant Agent and canceled by it and retired.
SECTION
14. CONCERNING THE WARRANT AGENT.
14.1.
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 Certificates or the Warrants
represented thereby or of any securities or other property delivered upon
exercise of any Warrant or whether any stock issued upon exercise of any Warrant
is fully paid and nonassessable.
14.2.
The
Warrant Agent shall not at any time be under any duty or
responsibility
to any holder of Warrant Certificates to make or cause to be made any adjustment
of the Purchase Price provided in this Agreement, or to determine whether any
fact exists which may require any such adjustments, or with respect to the
nature or extent of any such adjustment, when made, or with respect to the
method employed in making the same. It shall not (i) be liable for any recital
or statement of facts contained herein or for any action taken, suffered 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 any Warrant Certificate, or (iii) be liable
for any act or omission in connection with this Agreement except for its own
negligence or willful misconduct.
14.3.
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, suffered 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 the President, its Secretary, or Assistant Secretary
(unless other evidence in respect thereof is herein specifically prescribed).

by it in accordance with such notice, statement, instruction, request,
direction, order or demand believed by it to be genuine.
10
14.4.
The
Company agrees to pay the Warrant Agent compensation for its services hereunder
and to reimburse it for its expenses hereunder in accordance with the fees
listed on Schedule I attached hereto; it further agrees to indemnify the Warrant
Agent and save it harmless against any and all losses, expenses and liabilities,
including judgments, costs and counsel fees, for anything done or omitted by
the
Warrant Agent in the execution of its duties and powers hereunder except losses,
expenses and liabilities arising as a result of the Warrant Agent's negligence
or willful misconduct.
14.5.
The
Warrant Agent may resign its duties and 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), after giving 60 days' prior
written notice to the Company. At least 30 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 Holder of each Warrant
Certificate at the Company's expense. Upon such resignation, or any inability
of
the Warrant Agent to act as such hereunder, the Company shall appoint a new
warrant agent in writing. If the Company shall fail to make such appointment
within a period of 30 days after it has been notified in writing of such
resignation by the resigning Warrant Agent, then the Registered Holder 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 a court, shall be a bank or trust company having a
capital and surplus, as shown by its last published report to its stockholders,
of not less than $10,000,000 or a stock transfer company. After acceptance
in
writing of such appointment by the 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; but, if for any reason
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 validly executed and delivered by the resigning Warrant
Agent. Not later than the effective date of any such appointment, the Company
shall file notice thereof with the resigning Warrant Agent and shall forthwith
cause a copy of such notice to be mailed to the Registered Holder of each
Warrant Certificate.
14.6.
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 trust business of the Warrant Agent shall be a successor
warrant agent under this Agreement without any further act, provided that such
corporation is eligible for appointment as successor to the Warrant Agent under
the provisions of the preceding paragraph. 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 Holder of each Warrant
Certificate.
11
14.7.
The
Warrant Agent, its subsidiaries and affiliates, and any of its or their officers
or directors, may buy and 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 effects as though it were not Warrant Agent. Nothing herein
shall preclude the Warrant Agent from acting in any other capacity for the
Company or for any other legal entity.
SECTION
15. MODIFICATION OF AGREEMENT.
15.1.
The
Warrant Agent and the Company may by supplemental agreement make any changes
or
corrections in this Agreement (i) that they shall deem it appropriate to cure
any ambiguity or to correct any defective or inconsistent provision or manifest
mistake or error herein contained; or (ii) that they may deem necessary or
desirable and which shall not adversely affect the interests of the Registered
Holders; provided, however, that this Agreement shall not otherwise be modified,
supplemented or altered in any respect except with the consent in writing of
the
Registered Holders representing not less than two-thirds of the Warrants, other
than such changes as are specifically prescribed by this Agreement as originally
executed.
