3. SUBSCRIBER REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
The Subscriber hereby represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

not for the account of any other person or entity, and not with a view to
distribute, assign or resell the Securities to others or to fractionalize the
Securities in whole or in part within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the "Securities Act"), and any applicable state or other securities
laws ("State Acts"). The Subscriber will not sell, hypothecate or otherwise
transfer the Securities unless permitted under this Agreement and such
Securities are registered under the Securities Act and State Acts, or an

materials requested by the Subscriber to the Subscriber, directly and

obligation to register the Securities or to assist the Subscriber in complying
with any exemption from registration.

THIS WARRANT AND THE COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT HAVE
NOT BEEN REGISTERED PURSUANT TO THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 OR ANY STATE
SECURITIES LAW. NEITHER THIS WARRANT, THE COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF
THIS WARRANT, NOR ANY PORTION THEREOF OR INTEREST THEREIN MAY BE SOLD, ASSIGNED,
TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF UNLESS THE SAME IS REGISTERED
UNDER SAID ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAW, OR UNLESS AN EXEMPTION
FROM SUCH REGISTRATION IS AVAILABLE AND THE COMPANY SHALL HAVE RECEIVED, AT THE
EXPENSE OF THE HOLDER THEREOF, EVIDENCE OF SUCH EXEMPTION REASONABLY
SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY (WHICH MAY INCLUDE, AMONG OTHER THINGS, AN OPINION
OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY).
Right to Purchase
Up to 1,000,000 Shares
1
WARRANT TO PURCHASE up to 1,000,000 SHARES OF COMMON STOCK
OF ASSURETEC HOLDINGS INC.
This is to Certify that, for value received, ___________________ (the
"Holder"), is entitled to purchase, subject to the provisions of this Warrant,
from AssureTec Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), at any
time on or after date hereof, for a period of two years from the date of this
Debenture or aggregated counterparts thereof or one year from the effective date
of an IPO whichever occurs earlier, up to Six hundred sixty six thousand six
hundred sixty six (1,000,000) shares of the Common Stock, US$.001 par value, of
the Company (the "Common Stock") at a purchase price per share equal to US$6 at
the rate of one share for each three dollars ($3) of original Debenture balance,
subject to adjustment as to the number of shares and purchase price as
hereinafter set forth. The shares of the Company's Common Stock issuable upon
the exercise of this Warrant are called herein the "Warrant Stock." The price
per share of the Warrant Stock as adjusted from time to time as hereinafter set
forth is sometimes referred to as the "Exercise Price." The Holder hereof may
exercise this Warrant as to all or any portion of the shares of the Warrant
Stock which such Holder shall have the right to acquire hereunder. This Warrant
is the Warrant referred to in that certain Subscription Agreement of even date
herewith (the "Subscription Agreement") between the Company and the Holder.
(a) Exercise of Warrant. This Warrant may be exercised by presentation and
surrender hereof to the Company with the Exercise Notice attached hereto as
Annex A. The Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised when (i) the Company
has received a completed Exercise Notice, and (ii) the Company has received
payment in the amount of the applicable Exercise Price, notwithstanding that
certificates representing such shares of Common Stock shall not then be actually
delivered to the Holder. If the stock transfer books of the Company shall be
closed on the date of receipt of the Exercise Notice and the Exercise Price as
aforesaid, the Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of such shares of Common
Stock on the next succeeding day on which the stock transfer books of the
Company shall be opened. If this Warrant should be exercised in part only, the
Company shall, upon surrender of this Warrant for cancellation, execute and
deliver a new Warrant evidencing the right of the Holder to purchase the balance
of the shares purchasable hereunder. In the event this Warrant shall not be
exercised within a period of two years from the date of this Debenture or
aggregated counterparts thereof or one year from the effective date of an IPO
whichever occurs earlier, this Warrant shall become void and all rights
hereunder shall cease.
2
(1) Method of Payment. Holder may pay the applicable Exercise Price by
cash, check or cash equivalent.
(2) Expenses of Issuance. The Company shall issue the Shares upon
exercise of this Warrant without charge to Holder for any issuance tax or other
cost incurred by the Company in connection with such exercise and the related
issuance of the Shares. Each of the Shares shall, upon payment of the Exercise
Price therefor, be fully paid and nonassessable and free from all liens and
charges with respect to the issuance thereof.
(3) Withholding Taxes. Holder shall satisfy any federal, state, local
or foreign withholding tax obligations arising from the exercise of the Warrant
or the subsequent disposition of the Shares.
(b) Reservation of Shares; Stock Fully Paid. The Company agrees that at all
times there shall be authorized and reserved for issuance upon exercise of this
Warrant such number of shares of its Common Stock as shall be required for
issuance or delivery upon exercise of this Warrant. All shares that may be
issued upon exercise hereof, will upon issuance, be validly issued, fully paid
and non-assessable.
(c) Fractional Shares. This Warrant shall be exercisable in such manner as
not to require the issuance of fractional shares or scrip representing
fractional shares. If, as a result of adjustment in the Exercise Price or the
number of shares of Common Stock to be received upon exercise of this Warrant
fractional shares would be issuable, no such fractional shares shall be issued.
In lieu thereof the Company shall pay the Holder an amount in cash equal to such
fraction multiplied by the current market value of such fractional share. The
current value shall be an amount, not less than twice book value, determined in
such reasonable manner as may be prescribed by the Board of Directors of the
Company, such determination to be final and binding on the Holder.
3
(d) Exchange or Assignment of Warrant. Holder may not, directly or
indirectly, voluntarily or involuntarily, sell, assign, transfer, pledge,
hypothecate, encumber or otherwise dispose of, voluntarily or involuntarily,
directly or indirectly (each, a "Transfer") this Warrant, except that Holder may
transfer the Warrant to Holder's spouse and direct descendants of Holder, and
the heirs, executors, administrators, testamentary trustees, legatees or
beneficiaries of Holder's estate upon death (each, a "Permitted Transferee");
provided, however, that (x) any such Permitted Transferee shall have agreed in
writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement with respect to the Shares
and (y) any transfer to a Permitted Transferee shall not be in violation of
applicable federal or state securities laws.
(e) Rights of the Holder; Limitation on Liability. The Holder shall not,
prior to exercise of this Warrant, by virtue hereof, be entitled to any rights
of a shareholder in the Company, either at law or equity, and the rights of the
Holder are limited to those expressed in the Warrant. No provision hereof, in
absence of an affirmative action by the Holder to purchase the Warrant Stock,
and no enumeration herein of rights or privileges by the Holder, shall give rise
to any liability of the Holder for the Exercise Price of the Warrant Stock.
(f) Adjustment of Exercise Rights. The Exercise Price or the number of
shares of Common Stock to be received upon the exercise of this Warrant, or both
shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:
(l) Dividends. In case any additional shares of Common Stock or any
obligation or stock convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock
(such convertible or exchangeable obligations or stock being hereinafter called
4
"Convertible Securities") shall be issued as a dividend on any class of stock of
the Company, such shares or Convertible Securities shall be deemed to have been
issued without consideration, on the day next succeeding the date for the
determination of stockholders' entitled to such dividend; and any issuance of
any such additional shares of Common Stock as a dividend on Common Stock shall
be treated as a subdivision as a whole of the number of shares of Common Stock
then outstanding into a greater number of shares, and the Exercise Price shall
be adjusted under Subsection (2) of this Section (f) and not under this
Subsection (l). If at any time the Company shall declare a cash dividend on its
Common Stock and shall, contemporaneously therewith, give to the holders of
Common Stock the option to purchase additional Common Stock at a price which
shall net the Company in the aggregate substantially the amount, or less than
the amount, of such cash dividend, the aggregate number of shares of Common
Stock actually issued and issuable pursuant to the exercise of such option shall
be deemed to have been issued as a stock dividend on the date of the expiration
of such option.
Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall not be
required to make any adjustment in the Exercise Price in the case of the
issuance at any time or from time to time of any shares of Common Stock pursuant
to any exercise of this Warrant.
(2) Effect of "Split-ups" and "Split-down" and Certain Dividends. In
case at any time or from time to time the Company shall subdivide as a whole, by
reclassification, by the issuance of a stock dividend on the Common Stock
payable in Common Stock, or otherwise, the number of shares of Common Stock then
outstanding into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, with or without par
value, the Exercise Price then in effect shall be reduced proportionately, and
the number of shares of Warrant Stock then exercisable hereunder shall be
increased proportionately. In case at any time or from time to time the Company
shall consolidate as a whole, by reclassification or otherwise, the number of
shares of Common Stock then outstanding into a lesser number of shares of Common
Stock, with or without par value, the Exercise Price then in effect shall be
increased proportionately and the number of shares of Warrant Stock then
exercisable hereunder shall be decreased proportionately.
5
(3) Statement of Adjusted Exercise Price. Whenever the Exercise Price
is adjusted pursuant to any of the foregoing provisions of this Section (f), the
Company shall forthwith prepare a written statement signed by the President or
the Treasurer of the Company, setting forth the adjusted Exercise Price and any
adjustment in the number of shares purchasable hereunder, determined as provided
in this Section (f), and in reasonable detail the facts requiring such
adjustment. Such statement shall be filed among the permanent records of the
Company, shall be furnished to the Holder of each Warrant upon request, and
shall be open to inspection by the Holders of the Warrants during normal
business hours.
(4) Effect of Merger or Consolidation. In case the Company shall enter
into any consolidation with or merger into any other corporation wherein the
Company is not the surviving corporation, or sell or convey its property as an
entirety or substantially as an entirety and in connection with such
consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance shares of stock or other securities
shall be issuable or deliverable in exchange for the Common Stock of the
Company, the Holder of any Warrant shall thereafter be entitled to purchase
pursuant to such Warrant (in lieu of the number of shares of Common Stock which
such Holder would have been entitled to purchase immediately prior to such
consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance) the shares of stock or other
securities to which such number of shares of Common Stock would have been
entitled at the time of such consolidation, merger sale or conveyance, at an
aggregate Exercise Price equal to that which would have been payable if such
number of shares of Common Stock had been purchased immediately prior thereto.
In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, appropriate
provision (as determined by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company
with the approval of the Holder) shall be made with respect to the rights and
interests thereafter of the Holders of Warrants, to the end that all the
provisions of the Warrants (including adjustment provisions) shall thereafter be
applicable, as nearly as reasonably practicable, in relation to such stock or
other securities.
6
(5) Reorganization and Reclassification. In case of any capital
reorganization or any reclassification of the capital stock of the Company
(except as provided in Subsection (2) of this Section (f)); the Holder of any
Warrant shall thereafter be entitled to purchase pursuant to such Warrant (in
lieu of the number of shares of Common Stock which such Holder would have been
entitled to purchase immediately prior to such reorganization or
reclassification) the shares of stock of any class or classes or other
securities or property to which the holder of such number of shares of Common
Stock would have been entitled at the time of such reorganization or
reclassification, at an aggregate Exercise Price equal to that which would have
been payable if such number of shares of Common Stock had been purchased
immediately prior to such reorganization or reclassification, appropriate
provision (as determined by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company
with the approval of the Holder) shall be made with respect to the rights and
interest thereafter of the Warrants (including adjustment provisions) shall
thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably practicable, in relation to
such stock or other securities or property.
(6) Distributions. In case the Company shall make any distribution of
its assets to holders of its Common Stock as a liquidation or partial
liquidation dividend or by way of return of capital, or other than as a dividend
payable out of earnings or any surplus legally available for dividends under the
laws of the State of Delaware, then the Holder of this Warrant who thereafter
exercises the same as herein provided after the date of record for the
determination of those holders of Common Stock entitled to such distribution of
assets, shall be entitled to receive for the purchase price of the shares of
Common Stock stated in this Warrant, in addition to the Shares of Common Stock,
the amount of such assets (or at the option of the Company, a sum equal to the
value thereof at the time of such distribution to holders of Common Stock, as
such value is determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good
faith), which would have been payable to such Holder had he been the holder of
record of such shares of Common Stock on the record date for the determination
of those entitled to such distribution.
7
(7) Dissolution or Liquidation. In case the Company shall liquidate or
wind up its affairs, the Holder of this Warrant shall be entitled, upon the
exercise thereof, to receive, in lieu of the shares of Common Stock of the
Company which it would have been entitled to receive, the same kind and amount
of assets as would have been issued, distributed or paid to it upon any such
dissolution, liquidation or winding up with respect to such shares of Common
Stock of the Company, had it been the holder of record of such shares of Common
Stock on the record date for the determination of those entitled to receive any
such liquidating distribution; provided, however, that all rights under this
Warrant shall terminate on a date fixed by the Company, such date to be not
earlier than the date of commencement of proceedings for dissolution,
liquidation or winding up and not later than 30 days after such commencement
date, unless the Holder shall have, prior to such termination date, exercised
this Warrant. Notice of such termination of rights under this Warrant shall be
given to the last registered Holder hereof, as the same shall appear on the
books of the Company, by mail at least 30 days prior to such termination date.
In the event of such notice the Holder may exercise this Warrant prior to the
fifth anniversary hereof.
(g) Limitations on Transfer of Warrant Stock. The Common Stock issuable
pursuant hereto has not been registered under the Act. Accordingly, by
acceptance hereof the Holder agrees that:
(l) It will acquire the Common Stock issuable pursuant hereto to be
held as an investment and that it will not attempt to sell, distribute or
dispose of the same except pursuant to this agreement and:
(a) pursuant to a registration statement filed and rendered
effective under the Act; or
(b) pursuant to a specific exemption from registration under the
Act.
8
(2) There shall appear on the certificate or certificates evidencing
any Common Stock issued pursuant hereto a legend as follows:
THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED PURSUANT TO THE
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAW. NEITHER
THIS SECURITY NOR ANY PORTION HEREOF OR INTEREST HEREIN MAY

DISPOSED OF UNLESS THE SAME IS REGISTERED UNDER SAID ACT AND
ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAW, OR UNLESS AN EXEMPTION
FROM SUCH REGISTRATION IS AVAILABLE AND THE CORPORATION
SHALL HAVE RECEIVED, AT THE EXPENSE OF THE HOLDER HEREOF,
EVIDENCE OF SUCH EXEMPTION REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE
CORPORATION (WHICH MAY INCLUDE, AMONG OTHER THINGS, AN
OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION).
