equity interests in the Company upon conversion or exercise, setting forth
for
each such holder the type of security, number of equity shares covered
thereunder, the exercise or conversion price thereof, the vesting schedule
thereof (if any), and the issuance date and expiration date thereof. Other
than
as disclosed in the Commission Filings, there are no outstanding rights,
agreements, arrangements or understandings to which the Company is a party
(written or oral) which would obligate the Company to issue any equity interest,
option, warrant, convertible note, or other types of securities or to register
any shares in a registration statement filed with the Commission. Other than
as
disclosed in the Commission Filings, there is no agreement, arrangement or
understanding between or among any entities or individuals which affects,
restricts or relates to voting, giving of written consents, dividend rights
or
transferability of shares with respect to any voting shares of the Company,

Filings accurately disclose all the shares subject to “lock-up” or similar
agreements or arrangements by which any equity shares are subject to resale
restrictions and the Company has provided the Purchaser complete and accurate
copies of all such agreements, which agreements are in full force and effect.
Except as set forth in the Commission Filings, there are no outstanding
obligations of the Company to repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire for value
any outstanding shares of capital stock or other ownership interests of the
Company or to provide funds to or make any investment (in the form of a loan,
capital contribution or otherwise) in any other entity. There are no

Shares.
The
Company shall have available a sufficient number of authorized and unissued
shares of Common Stock as may be necessary to effect conversion of the Series

Warrants. The Company understands and acknowledges the potentially dilutive
effect to the Common Stock of the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the
conversion of the Series D Preferred Stock and the exercise of the Warrants
and
the Existing Facility Warrants. The Company further acknowledges that its
obligation to issue shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Series D

CERTAIN
COVENANTS, ACKNOWLEDGMENTS AND
RESTRICTIONS

(a) Transfer
Restrictions.
The

made only in accordance with the terms of said Rule 144. The provisions of

form:
THESE
SECURITIES (INCLUDING ANY UNDERLYING SECURITIES) HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER
THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE,

or trading market, and if applicable, the filing of a notice on Form D (at
such
time and in such manner as required by the rules and regulations of the
Commission), and to provide copies thereof to the Purchaser promptly after

Stock; and (d) furnish to any holder of the Securities forthwith upon request
(i) a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting
requirements of Rule 144, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly
report of the Company as filed with the Commission, and (iii) any other reports
and documents that a holder of the Securities may reasonably request in order
to
avail itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing such holder
to
sell any such Securities without registration.
12
(d) Reservation
of Common Stock.
The
Company will at all times have authorized and reserved for the purpose of
issuance a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the
conversion of the Series D Preferred Stock and the exercise of the
Warrants.
(e) Registration
Requirement.
Upon
the execution of this Agreement, the holders of the Securities and the Company
shall execute a registration rights agreement in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit C (the “Registration
Rights Agreement”).
(f) Return
of Certificates on Conversion and Warrants on Exercise.
(i) Upon
any
conversion by the Purchaser of less than all of the Series D Preferred Stock
pursuant to the terms of the Series D Certificate of Designation, the Company
shall issue and deliver to the Purchaser, within seven business days of the
date
of conversion, a new certificate or certificates for, as applicable, the total
number of shares of the Series D Preferred Stock, which the Purchaser has not
yet elected to convert (with the number of and denomination of such new

partial exercise by the Purchaser of the Warrants, the Company shall issue
and

of Common Stock covered thereby, in accordance with the terms
thereof.

by
the Purchaser shall be exchangeable, at the option of the Purchaser at any
time
and from time to time at the office of Company, for certificates with different
denominations representing, as applicable, an equal aggregate number of shares

least two-thirds of the then outstanding shares of the Series D Preferred Stock,
or (ii) upon the closing of a Qualified Public Offering. As used herein, a
“Qualified
Public Offering”
shall be
the commitment, underwritten public offering of the Corporation’s Common Stock
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities
Act”),
at a
public offering price (prior to underwriters’ discounts and expenses) equal to
or exceeding $3.00 per share of Common Stock (as adjusted for any stock
dividends, combinations or split with respect to such shares), which generates
aggregate net proceeds to the Corporation (after deduction for underwriters’
discounts and expenses relating to the issuance, including without limitation
fees of the Corporation’s counsel) equal to or exceeding
$15,000,000.
A-1
(c) Conversion
Rate.
Each
share of the Series D Preferred Stock is convertible into the number of shares
of the Common Stock as shall be calculated by dividing the Stated Value by
$4.00
(the “Conversion
Price”;
the
conversion rate so calculated, the “Conversion
Rate”),
subject to adjustments as set forth in Section 2(e)
hereof.
(d) Mechanics
of Conversion.
(i) The
Holder may exercise the conversion right specified in Section 2(a)
by
giving written notice to the Corporation at any time, that the Holder elects
to
convert a stated number of shares of the Series D Preferred Stock into a stated
number of shares of Common Stock, and by surrendering the certificate or
certificates representing the Series D Preferred Stock to be converted, duly
endorsed to the Corporation or in blank, to the Corporation at its principal
office (or at such other office as the Corporation may designate by written
notice, postage prepaid, to all Holders) at any time during its usual business
hours, together with a statement of the name or names (with addresses) of the
person or persons in whose name the certificate or certificates for Common
Stock
shall be issued. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately
prior to the close of business on the date of surrender of the shares of Series
D Preferred Stock to be converted, and the person or persons entitled to receive
the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for
all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock
on
such date.
(ii) If
the
conversion is in connection with the closing of a Qualified Public Offering,
the
conversion may, at the option of any holder tendering shares of Series D
Preferred Stock for conversion, be conditioned upon the closing of the Qualified
Public Offering, in which event the person(s) entitled to receive the Common
Stock upon conversion of the Series D Preferred Stock shall not be deemed to
have converted such Series D Preferred Stock until immediately prior to the
closing of the Qualified Public Offering.
(e) Conversion
Rate Adjustments.
The
Conversion Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as
follows:
(i) Consolidation,
Merger, Sale, Lease or Conveyance.
In case
of any consolidation or merger of the Corporation with or into another
corporation, or in case of any sale, lease or conveyance to another corporation
of all or substantially all the assets of the Corporation, each share of the
Series D Preferred Stock shall after the date of such consolidation, merger,
sale, lease or conveyance be convertible into the number of shares of stock
or
other securities or property (including cash) to which the Common Stock issuable
(at the time of such consolidation, merger, sale, lease or conveyance) upon
conversion of such share of the Series D Preferred Stock would have been
entitled upon such consolidation, merger, sale, lease or conveyance; and in
any
such case, if necessary, the provisions set forth herein with respect to the
rights and interests thereafter of the Holder of the shares of the Series D
Preferred Stock shall be appropriately adjusted so as to be applicable, as
nearly as may reasonably be, to any shares of stock of other securities or
property thereafter deliverable on the conversion of the shares of the Series
D
Preferred Stock.
A-2
(ii) Stock
Dividends, Subdivisions, Reclassification, or Combinations.
If the
Corporation shall (i) declare a dividend or make a distribution on its Common
Stock in shares of its Common Stock, (ii) subdivide or reclassify the
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, or (iii)
combine or reclassify the outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of
shares; the Conversion Price in effect at the time of the record date for such
dividend or distribution or the effective date of such subdivision, combination,
or reclassification shall be proportionately adjusted so that the Holder of
any
shares of the Series D Preferred Stock surrendered for conversion after such
date shall be entitled to receive the number of shares of Common Stock that
he
would have owned or been entitled to receive had such Series D Preferred Stock
been converted immediately prior to such date. Successive adjustments in the
Conversion Price shall be made whenever any event specified above shall
occur.
(iii) Issuances
of Securities.
If at
any time on or before January 15, 2008 the Corporation shall (i) sell or
otherwise issue shares of the Common Stock at a purchase price per share less
than the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance, or
(ii)
sell or otherwise issue the Corporation’s securities which are convertible into
or exercisable for shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock at a conversion or
exercise price per share less than the Conversion Price in effect immediately
prior to such issuance, then immediately upon such issuance or sale, the
Conversion Price shall be adjusted to a price equal to the purchase price of
the
shares of Common Stock or the conversion or exercise price per share of the
Corporation’s securities sold or issued. If at any time after January 15, 2008,
the Corporation shall (i) sell or otherwise issue shares of the Common Stock
at
a purchase price per share less than the Conversion Price in effect immediately
prior to such issuance, or (ii) sell or otherwise issue the Corporation’s
securities which are convertible into or exercisable for shares of the
Corporation’s Common Stock at a conversion or exercise price per share less than
the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance, then
immediately upon such issuance or sale, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted
to a price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price immediately prior
to
such issuance by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance or sale,
plus the number of shares of the Common Stock that the aggregate consideration
received by the Corporation for such issuance would purchase at such Conversion
Price; and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance plus the number of the
additional shares to be issued at such issuance or sale.
(iv) Excluded
Transactions.
No
adjustment to the Conversion Price shall be required under this Section
2(e)
in the
event of the issuance of shares of Common Stock by the Corporation upon the
conversion or exercise of or pursuant to any outstanding stock options or stock
option plan now existing or hereafter approved by the Holders which stock
options have an exercise or conversion price per share of less than the
Conversion Price.
A-3
(v) Reservation,
Validity of Common Stock.
The
Corporation covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available,
free
from preemptive rights, out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued
shares of Common Stock for the purpose of effecting conversion of the Series
D
Preferred Stock, the full number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon
the
conversion of all outstanding Series D Preferred Stock not therefore converted.
Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment in the Conversion
Rate
such that Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of Series D Preferred Stock
would be issued in excess of the authorized Common Stock, the Corporation will
take any corporate action which may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary
in order that the Corporation may validly and legally issue fully-paid and
non
assessable shares of Common Stock at such adjusted Conversion Rate. Such action
my include, but it is not limited to, amending the Corporation’s articles of
incorporation to increase the number of authorized Common Stock.
(f) Approvals.
If any
shares of the Common Stock to be reserved for the purpose of conversion of
shares of the Series D Preferred Stock require registration with or approval
of
any governmental authority under any Federal or state law before such shares
may
be validly issued or delivered upon conversion, then the Corporation will in
good faith and as expeditiously as possible endeavor to secure such registration
or approval, as the case may be. If, and so long as, any Common Stock into
which
the shares of the Series D Preferred Stock are then convertible is listed on
any
national securities exchange, the Corporation will, if permitted by the rules
of
such exchange, list and keep listed on such exchange, upon official notice
of
issuance, all shares of such Common Stock issuable upon conversion.
(g) Valid
Issuance.
All
shares of Common Stock that may be issued upon conversion of shares of the
Series D Preferred Stock will upon issuance be duly and validly issued, fully
paid and non-assessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect
to the issuance thereof, and the Corporation shall take no action that will
cause a contrary result.
3. Liquidation.
(a) Liquidation
Preference.
In the
event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether
voluntary or involuntary, the Holders of the Series D Preferred Stock shall
be
entitled to receive, prior and before any distribution of assets shall be made
to the holders of any other classes or series of capital stock or other
securities of the Corporation, an amount equal to $4.00 per share of Series
D
Preferred Stock held by such Holder (the “Liquidation
Pay Out”).
After
payment of the Liquidation Pay Out to each Holder and the payment of the
respective liquidation preferences of the other preferred stock of the
Corporation, if any, pursuant to the Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation, as
amended, each such Holder shall be entitled to share with the holders of the
Common Stock, the remaining assets of the Corporation available for distribution
to the Corporation’s stockholders in proportion to the shares of Common Stock
then held by the holders of the Common Stock and the shares of Common Stock
which the holders then have the right to acquire upon conversion of the Series
D
Preferred Stock.
A-4
(b) Ratable
Distribution.
If upon
any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the net assets
of
the Corporation to be distributed among the Holders shall be insufficient to
permit payment in full to the Holders of such Series D Preferred Stock, then
all
remaining net assets of the Corporation after the provision for the payment
of
the Corporation’s debts shall be distributed ratably in proportion to the full
amounts to which they would otherwise be entitled to receive among the
Holders.
(c) Merger,
Reorganization or Sale of Assets.
For
purposes of this Section 3,
(i) any
acquisition of the Corporation by means of merger or other form of corporate
reorganization in which outstanding shares of the Corporation are exchanged
for
securities or other consideration issued, or caused to be issued, by the
acquiring corporation or its subsidiary (other than a mere reincorporation
transaction) or (ii) a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Corporation, shall be treated as a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of
the
Corporation and shall entitle the holders of Series D Preferred Stock to receive
at the closing in cash, securities or other property amounts as specified in
Section 3(a)
above.
Whenever the distribution provided for in this Section 3
shall be
payable in securities or property other than cash, the value of such
distribution shall be the fair market value of such securities or other property
as determined in good faith by the Board.
4. Voting
Rights.
Except
as otherwise required under Nevada law, the Holders of the Series D Preferred
Stock shall be entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders of the
Corporation (or any written actions of stockholders in lieu of meetings) with
respect to any matters presented to the stockholders of the Corporation for
their action or consideration. For the purposes of such stockholder votes,
each
share of Series D Preferred Stock shall be entitled to one vote for each share
of Common Stock such share of Series D Preferred Stock would be convertible
into
at the record date set for such voting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long
as any shares of Series D Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the Corporation
shall not, without first obtaining the approval of the holders of at least
a
majority of the then outstanding shares of Series D Preferred Stock (i) alter
or
change the rights, preferences or privileges of the Series D Preferred Stock
as
outlined herein, or (ii) create any new class of series of capital stock having
a preference over the Series D Preferred Stock as to the payment of dividends
or
the distribution of assets upon the occurrence of a Liquidation Event
(“Senior
Securities”),
or
(iii) alter or change the rights, preferences or privileges of any Senior
Securities so as to adversely affect the Series D Preferred Stock.
5. Dividends.
The
Holders of the Series D Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to receive
dividends.
6. No
Preemptive Rights.
No
Holders of the Series D Preferred Stock, whether now or hereafter authorized,
shall, as such Holder, have any preemptive right whatsoever to purchase,
subscribe for or otherwise acquire, stock of any class of the Corporation nor
of
any security convertible into, nor of any warrant, option or right to purchase,
subscribe for or otherwise acquire, stock of any class of the Corporation,
whether now or hereafter authorized.
7. Exclusion
of Other Rights.
Except
as may otherwise be required by law, the shares of the Series D Preferred Stock
shall not have any preferences or relative, participating, optional or other
special rights, other than those specifically set forth in this resolution
(as
such resolution may be amended from time to time) and in the Corporation’s
Articles of Incorporation, as amended.
A-5
8. Headings
of Subdivisions.
The
headings of the various subdivisions hereof are for convenience of reference
only and shall not affect the interpretation of any of the provisions
hereof.
9. Severability
of Provisions.
If any
right, preference or limitation of the Series D Preferred Stock set forth in
this certificate of designation (“Certificate”)
(as
such Certificate may be amended from time to time) is invalid, unlawful or
incapable of being enforced by reason of any rule of law or public policy,
all
other rights, preferences and limitations set forth in this Certificate (as
so
amended) which can be given effect without the invalid, unlawful or
unenforceable right, preference or limitation shall, nevertheless, remain in
full force and effect, and no right, preference or limitation herein set forth
shall be deemed dependent upon any other such right, preference or limitation
unless so expressed herein.
10. Status
of Reacquired Shares.
No
shares of the Series D Preferred Stock which have been issued and reacquired
in
any manner or converted into Common Stock may be reissued, and all such shares
shall be returned to the status of undesignated shares of preferred stock of
the
Corporation.

hereunder shall be held subject to, all of the conditions, limitations and
provisions set forth herein.
1.

EXERCISE
OF WARRANT
|
(a) By
Payment of Cash.
This
Warrant may be exercised by its presentation and surrender to the Company at
its
principal office (or such office or agency of the Company as it may designate
in
writing to the Holder hereof), commencing on ___________, 2007 (“Date
of Issuance”)
and
expiring at 5:00 P.M., Eastern Standard time, on ___________, 2012, with the
Warrant Exercise Form attached hereto duly executed and accompanied by payment
(either in cash or by certified or official bank check or by wire transfer,
payable to the order of the Company) of the Exercise Price for the number of
shares specified in such Form.
The
Company agrees that the Holder hereof shall be deemed the record owner of such
Common Shares as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant
shall have been presented and payment made for such Common Shares as aforesaid
whether or not the Company or its transfer agent is open for business.
Certificates for the Common Shares so purchased shall be delivered to the Holder
hereof within a reasonable time, not exceeding 15 days, after the rights
represented by this Warrant shall have been so exercised. 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 rights of the
Holder hereof to purchase the balance of the shares purchasable hereunder as
soon as reasonably possible.
(b) Cashless
Exercise.
In lieu
of the payment method set forth in Section 1(a) above, the Holder may elect
to
exchange all or some of this Warrant for the Common Shares equal to the value
of
the amount of this Warrant being exchanged on the date of exchange. If the
Holder elects to exchange this Warrant as provided in this Section 1(b), the
Holder shall tender to the Company this Warrant for the amount being exchanged,
along with written notice of the Holder’s election to exchange some or all of
this Warrant, and the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of Common
Shares computed using the following formula:
X
=
Y
(A-B)
|
||
A
|
Where: | X = |
The
number of Common Shares to be issued to the
Holder.
|
Y
=
|
The
number of Common Shares purchasable under the amount of this Warrant
being
exchanged (as adjusted to the date of such
calculation).
|
A
=
|
The
Market Price of one Common Share.
|
B
=
|
The
Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such
calculation).
|
B-2
The
Warrant exchange shall take place on the date specified in the notice or if
the
date the notice is received by the Company is later than the date specified
in
the notice, on the date the notice is received by the Company.
As
used
herein in the phrase “Market
Price”
at any
date shall be deemed to be the last reported sale price or the closing price
of
the Common Stock on any exchange (including the National Association of
Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System (“Nasdaq”))
on
which the Common Stock is listed or the closing price as quoted on the OTC
Bulletin Board, whichever is applicable, or, in the case no such reported sale
takes place on such day, the average of the last reported sales prices or
quotations for the last five trading days, in either case as officially reported
or quoted by the principal securities exchange or the OTC Bulletin Board, and
if
the Common Stock is not listed or quoted as determined in good faith by
resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company, based on the best
information available to it.
(c) “Easy
Sale” Exercise.
In lieu
of the payment method set forth in Section 1(a) above, when permitted by law
and
applicable regulations (including rules of Nasdaq and National Association
of
Securities Dealers (“NASD”)),
the
Holder may pay the aggregate Exercise Price (the “Exercise
Amount”)
through
a “same day sale” commitment from the Holder (and if applicable a broker-dealer
that is a member of the NASD (an “NASD
Dealer”)),
whereby the Holder irrevocably elects to exercise this Warrant and to sell
a
portion of the shares so purchased to pay the Exercise Amount and the Holder
(or, if applicable, the NASD Dealer) commits upon sale (or, in the case of
the
NASD Dealer, upon receipt) of such shares to forward the Exercise Amount
directly to the Company.

COVENANTS
BY THE COMPANY
|
The
Company covenants and agrees as follows:
(a) Reservation
of Shares.
During
the period within which the rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised,
the Company shall, at all times, reserve and keep available out of its
authorized capital stock, solely for the purposes of issuance upon exercise
of
this Warrant, such number of its Common Shares as shall be issuable upon the
exercise of this Warrant. If at any time the number of authorized Common Shares
shall not be sufficient to effect the exercise of this Warrant, the Company
will
take such corporate action as may be necessary to increase its authorized but
unissued Common Shares to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for
such
purpose. The Company shall have analogous obligations with respect to any other
securities or property issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.
(b) Valid
Issuance, etc.
All
Common Shares which may be issued upon exercise of the rights represented by
this Warrant included herein will be, upon payment thereof, validly issued,
fully paid, non-assessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with
respect to the issuance thereof.
(c) Taxes.
All
original issue taxes payable in respect of the issuance of Common Shares upon
the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant shall be borne by the
Company, but in no event shall the Company be responsible or liable for income
taxes or transfer taxes upon the issuance or transfer of this Warrant or the
Warrant Stock.
B-3
(d) Fractional
Shares.
The
Company shall not be required to issue certificates representing fractions
of
Common Shares. In lieu of any fractional interests, the Company shall make
a
cash payment equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by such
fraction.
3.

EXCHANGE
OR ASSIGNMENT OF
WARRANT
|
This
Warrant is exchangeable, without expense, at the option of the Holder, upon
presentation and surrender hereof to the Company for other Warrants of different
denominations, entitling the Holder to purchase in the aggregate the same number
of Common Shares purchasable hereunder. Subject to the provisions of this
Warrant and the receipt by the Company of any required representations and
agreements, upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company with the Warrant
Assignment Form annexed hereto duly executed and funds sufficient to pay any
transfer tax, the Company shall, without additional charge, execute and deliver
a new Warrant in the name of the assignee named in such instrument of assignment
and this Warrant shall promptly be canceled. In the event of a partial
assignment of this Warrant, the new Warrants issued to the assignee and the
Holder shall make reference to the aggregate number of shares of Warrant Stock
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.

RIGHTS
OF THE
HOLDER
|
The
Holder shall not, by virtue hereof, be entitled to any voting or other rights
of
a stockholder of the Company, either at law or in equity, and the rights of
the
Holder are limited to those expressed in this Warrant.
5.
|
ADJUSTMENT
OF EXERCISE
PRICE
|
(a) Common
Stock Dividends; Common Stock Splits; Reclassification.
If the
Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (a) shall pay a stock
dividend on its Common Stock, (b) subdivide outstanding shares of Common Stock
into a larger number of shares (or combine the outstanding shares of Common
Stock into a smaller number of shares) or (c) issue by reclassification of
shares of Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then (i)
the
Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall
be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding prior to such event and
the
denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
after such event and (ii) the number of shares of the Warrant Stock shall be
multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares
of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator
of
which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
prior to such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 5.1 shall
become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of
stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution or, in the case
of a subdivision or re-classification, shall become effective immediately after
the effective date thereof.
(b) Rights;
Options; Warrants or Other Securities.
If the
Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, shall fix a record
date
for the issuance of rights, options, warrants or other securities to all the
holders of its Common Stock entitling them to subscribe for or purchase, convert
to, exchange for or otherwise acquire shares of Common Stock for no
consideration or at a price per share less than the Exercise Price, the Exercise
Price shall be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance
or sale plus the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate
consideration received by the Company would purchase at the Exercise Price,
and
the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to such issuance date plus the number of
additional shares of Common Stock offered for subscription, purchase,
conversion, exchange or acquisition, as the case may be. Such adjustment shall
be made whenever such rights, options, warrants or other securities are issued,
and shall become effective immediately after the record date for the
determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights, options, warrants
or other securities.
B-4
(c) Subscription
Rights.
If the
Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, shall fix a record
date
for the distribution to holders of its Common Stock, evidence of its
indebtedness or assets or rights, options, warrants or other security entitling
them to subscribe for or purchase, convert to, exchange for or otherwise acquire
any security (excluding those referred to in Sections 5(a) and 5(b) above),
then
in each such case the Exercise Price at which this Warrant shall thereafter
be
exercisable shall be determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to such record date by a fraction, the numerator of which
shall be the per-share Market Price on such record date less the then fair
market value at such record date of the portion of such assets or evidence
of
indebtedness so distributed applicable to one outstanding share of Common Stock
as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith, and the denominator
of
which shall be the Exercise Price as of such record date; provided, however,
that in the event of a distribution exceeding 10% of the net assets of the
Company, such fair market value shall be determined by an appraiser selected
in
good faith by the registered owners of a majority of the Warrant Stock then
outstanding; and provided, further, that the Company, after receipt of the
determination by such appraiser shall have the right to select in good faith
an
additional appraiser meeting the same qualifications, in which case the fair
market value shall be equal to the average of the determinations by each such
appraiser. Such adjustment shall be made whenever any such distribution is
made
and shall become effective immediately after the record date mentioned
above.
(d) Rounding.
All
calculations under this Section 5 shall be made to the nearest cent or the
nearest l/l00th of a share, as the case may be.
(e) Notice
of Adjustment.
Whenever
the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to this Section 5, the Company shall
promptly deliver to the Holder a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after
such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring
such
adjustment. Such notice shall be signed by the chairman, president or chief
financial officer of the Company.
(f) Treasury
Shares.
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 shares so owned or held shall be considered an issue or sale of Common
Stock by the Company.
(g) Change
of Control; Compulsory Share Exchange.
In case
of (A) any Change of Control Transaction (as defined below) or (B) any
compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is converted into
other securities, cash or property (each, an “Event”),
lawful provision shall be made so that the Holder shall have the right
thereafter to exercise this Warrant for shares of stock and other securities,
cash and property receivable upon or deemed to be held by holders of Common
Stock following such Event, and the Holder shall be entitled upon such Event
to
receive such amount of shares of stock and other securities, cash or property
as
the shares of the Common Stock of the Company into which this Warrant could
have
been exercised immediately prior to such Event (without taking into account
any
limitations or restrictions on the exercisability of this Warrant) would have
been entitled; provided, however, that in the case of a transaction specified
in
(A), above, in which holders of the Company’s Common Stock receive cash, the
Holder shall have the right to exercise the Warrant for such number of shares
of
the surviving company equal to the amount of cash into which this Warrant is
then exercisable, divided by the fair market value of the shares of the
surviving company on the effective date of such Event. The terms of any such
Event shall include such terms so as to continue to give to the Holder the
right
to receive the securities, cash or property set forth in this Section 5(g)
upon
any exercise or redemption following such Event, and, in the case of an Event
specified in (A), above, the successor corporation or other entity (if other
than the Company) resulting from such reorganization, merger or consolidation,
or the person acquiring the properties and assets, or such other controlling
corporation or entity as may be appropriate, shall expressly assume the
obligation to deliver the securities or other assets which the Holder is
entitled to receive hereunder. The provisions of this Section 5(g) shall
similarly apply to successive Events. “Change
of Control Transaction”
means
the occurrence of any (i) merger or consolidation of the Company with or into
another entity, unless the holders of the Company’s securities immediately prior
to such transaction or series of transactions continue to hold at least 50%
of
such securities following such transaction or series of transactions, (ii)
a
sale, conveyance, lease, transfer or disposition of all or substantially all
of
the assets of the Company in one or a series of related transactions or (iii)
the execution by the Company of an agreement to which the Company is a party
or
by which it is bound, providing for any of the events set forth above in (i)
or
(ii).
B-5
(h) Issuances
Below Exercise Price.
If the
Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding:
(i) issues
or
sells, or is deemed to have issued or sold, any Common Stock;
(ii) in
any
manner grants, issues or sells any rights, options, warrants, options to
subscribe for or to purchase Common Stock or any stock or other securities
convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock (other than any Excluded
Securities (as defined below)) (such rights, options or warrants being herein
called “Options”
and such
convertible or exchangeable stock or securities being herein called “Convertible
Securities”);
or
(iii) in
any
manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities;
for
(a)
with respect to paragraph (i) above, a price per share, or (b) with respect
to
paragraphs (ii) or (iii) above, a price per share for which Common Stock
issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon conversion or exchange of
such Convertible Securities is, less than the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to such issuance or sale, then, immediately after such
issuance, sale or grant, the Exercise Price shall be reduced to a price equal
to
the price per share of the Common Stock sold or the exercise price or conversion
price of the Options and Convertible Securities, as applicable. No modification
of the issuance terms shall be made upon the actual issuance of such Common
Stock upon conversion or exchange of such Options or Convertible Securities.
The
number of Common Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be
increased to an amount equal to the quotient of (A) the product of (x) the
Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the adjustment multiplied by
(y)
the number of Common Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately
prior to the adjustment, divided by (B) the adjusted Exercise Price. If there
is
a change at any time in (i) the exercise price provided for in any Options,
(ii)
the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issuance, conversion
or
exchange of any Convertible Securities or (iii) the rate at which any
Convertible Securities are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock,
then immediately after such change the Exercise Price shall be adjusted to
Exercise Price which would have been in effect at such time had such Options
or
Convertible Securities still outstanding provided for such changed exercise
price, additional consideration or changed conversion rate, as the case may
be,
at the time initially granted, issued or sold; provided that no adjustment
shall
be made if such adjustment would result in an increase of the Exercise Price
then in effect.
B-6
“Excluded
Securities”
means
(i) options to be granted pursuant to a stock option plan approved by Stanford
International Bank Ltd. (“Stanford”);
(ii)
shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion or exercise of warrants, options
or other securities convertible into Common Stock which have been specifically
disclosed to Stanford in the Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of even
date
herewith between the Company and Stanford, or (iii) shares of Common Stock
or
securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of Common Stock issued
or
deemed to be issued by the Company in connection with a strategic acquisition
by
the Company of the assets or business, or division thereof, of another entity
which acquisition has been approved by Stanford in writing.
(i) Effect
on Exercise Price of Certain Events.
For
purposes of determining the adjusted Exercise Price under Section
5(h),
the
following shall be applicable:
(i) Calculation
of Consideration Received.
If any
Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold or deemed
to
have been issued or sold for cash, the consideration received therefor will
be
deemed to be the net amount received by the Company therefor, without deducting
any expenses paid or incurred by the Company or any commissions or compensations
paid or concessions or discounts allowed to underwriters, dealers or others
performing similar services in connection with such issue or sale. In case
any
Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold for a
consideration other than cash, the amount of the consideration other than cash
received by the Company will be the fair value of such consideration, except
where such consideration consists of securities listed or quoted on a national
securities exchange or national quotation system, in which case the amount
of
consideration received by the Company will be the arithmetic average of the
closing sale price of such security for the five (5) consecutive trading days
immediately preceding the date of receipt thereof. In case any Common Stock,
Options or Convertible Securities are issued to the owners of the non-surviving
entity in connection with any merger in which the Company is the surviving
entity, the amount of consideration therefor will be deemed to be the fair
value
of such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving entity
as is
attributable to such Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, as the
case may be. The fair value of any consideration other than cash or securities
will be determined jointly by the Company and the registered owners of a
majority of the Warrant Stock then outstanding. If such parties are unable
to
reach agreement within 10 days after the occurrence of an event requiring
valuation (the “Valuation
Event”),
the
fair value of such consideration will be determined within 48 hours of the
10th
day following the Valuation Event by an appraiser selected in good faith by
the
Company and agreed upon in good faith by the registered owners of a majority
of
the Warrant Stock then outstanding. The determination of such appraiser shall
be
binding upon all parties absent manifest error.
B-7
(ii) Integrated
Transactions.
In case
any Option is issued in connection with the issue or sale of other securities
of
the Company, together comprising one integrated transaction in which no specific
consideration is allocated to such Options by the parties thereto, the Options
will be deemed to have been issued for an aggregate consideration of
$.001.
(iii) Record
Date.
If the
Company takes a record of the holders of Common Stock for the purpose of
entitling them (a) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in Common
Stock, Options or in Convertible Securities or (b) to subscribe for or purchase
Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, then such record date will
be
deemed to be the date of the issue or sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed
to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making
of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of
subscription or purchase, as the case may be.
(iv) Other
Events.
If any
event occurs that would adversely affect the rights of the Holder of this
Warrant but is not expressly provided for by this Section 5 (including, without
limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights
or
other rights with equity features), then the Company’s Board of Directors will
make an appropriate adjustment in the Exercise Price so as to protect the rights
of the Holder; provided, however, that no such adjustment will increase the
Exercise Price.
(j) Notice
of Certain Events.
If:
(i) the
Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution) on its Common
Stock;
(ii) the
Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption
of
its Common Stock;
(iii) the
Company shall authorize the granting to the holders of all of its Common Stock
rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock
of
any class or of any rights;
(iv) the
approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection
with
any capital reorganization, reclassification of the Company’s capital stock, any
consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, any sale or transfer
of
all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any compulsory share
exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash
or
property; or
B-8
(v) the
Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation
or
winding up of the affairs of the Company;
then
the
Company shall cause to be filed at each office or agency maintained for the
purpose of exercise of this Warrant, and shall cause to be delivered to the
Holder, at least 30 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective
date hereinafter specified, a notice (provided such notice shall not include
any
material non-public information) stating (a) the date on which a record is
to be
taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or
warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders
of
Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions,
redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (b) the date on which
such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer
or
share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of
which it is expected that holders of Common Stock of record shall be entitled
to
exchange their shares of Common Stock for securities, cash or other property
deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger,
sale, transfer or share exchange; provided, however, that the failure to mail
such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall not affect
the
validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice.
Nothing herein shall prohibit the Holder from exercising this Warrant during
the
30-day period commencing on the date of such notice.
(k) Increase
in Exercise Price.
In no
event shall any provision in this Section 5 cause the Exercise Price to be
greater than the Exercise Price on the date of issuance of this Warrant, except
for a combination of the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller
number of shares as referenced in Section 5(a) above.
6.

prior to the exercise of the Warrant, the issuance of the Warrant Stock has

to
the Company to the effect that such shares are being acquired for investment
and
not with a view to the distribution thereof, and such other representations
and
documentation as may be required by the Company, unless in the opinion of
counsel to the Company such representations or other documentation are not
necessary to comply with the Act.

Warrant Stock, all certificates representing such Warrant Stock shall bear
on
the face or reverse thereof substantially the following legend:
“The
securities which are represented by this certificate have not been registered

or otherwise disposed of until a registration statement with respect thereto
is
declared effective under such act, or the Company receives an opinion of counsel
for the Company that an exemption from the registration requirements of such
act
is available.”

LOST,
STOLEN OR DESTROYED
WARRANTS
|
In
the
event that the Holder notifies the Company that this Warrant has been lost,

THIS

dated as
of August

(the
“Agreement”),
is
entered into by and among Health Systems Solutions, Inc., a Nevada corporation
(the “Company”),
and
Stanford International Bank Limited, a banking corporation organized under
the
laws of Antigua and Barbuda, and its assigns (the “Investor”).
Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them
in
the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement (as hereinafter defined).
WHEREAS,
simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Investor
is agreeing to purchase from the Company, (i) pursuant to the Preferred Stock
Purchase Agreement dated as of August __, 2007 between the Company and the
Investor (the “Preferred
Stock Purchase Agreement”),
up to
1,425,000 shares of the Series D Preferred Stock and Warrants to purchase up
to
427,500 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $.001 (the “Common
Stock”), and (ii) pursuant to the Convertible Debenture Purchase Agreement dated
as of August ___, 2007 between the Company and the Investor (the “Debenture
Purchase Agreement”),
a
convertible debenture in the principal amount of $5,000,000 convertible into
2,500,000 shares of the Company’s Series D Preferred Stock and Warrants to
purchase up to 1,250,000 shares of Common Stock; and
WHEREAS,
the
Company desires to grant to the Investors the registration rights set forth
herein with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion
of
the Series D Preferred Stock (the “Conversion
Shares”),
the
shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants including the
Existing
Facility Warrants
(the
“Warrant
Shares”),
the
shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the warrants issuable
in
the event of a registration default pursuant to Section 4(e)
(the
“Default
Warrant Shares”)
and the
shares of Common Stock issued as a dividend or other distribution with respect
to the Conversion Shares, Warrant Shares or Default Warrant Shares (the
“Distribution
Shares”)
(all
the shares of the Series D Preferred Stock, the Conversion Shares, the Merger
Shares, the Warrant Shares, the Default Warrant Shares and the Distribution
Shares, collectively and interchangeably, are referred to herein as the
“Securities”).
NOW,
THEREFORE,
the
parties hereto mutually agree as follows:
1.
|
CERTAIN
DEFINITIONS
|
As
used
herein the term “Registrable
Security”
means
the Conversion Shares, Warrant Shares, Default Warrant Shares and the
Distribution Shares, until (i) the Registration Statement (as defined below)
has
been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
“Commission”),
and
all Securities have been disposed of pursuant to the Registration Statement,
(ii) all Securities have been sold under circumstances under which all of the
applicable conditions of Rule 144 (“Rule
144”)
(or any
similar provision then in force) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the “Securities
Act”)
are
met, or (iii) such time as, in the opinion of counsel to the Company reasonably
satisfactory to the Investors and upon delivery to the Investors of such
executed opinion, all Securities may be sold without any time, volume or manner
limitations pursuant to Rule 144 (or any similar provision then in effect).
In
the event of any merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization or
other change in corporate structure affecting the Common Stock, such adjustment
shall be deemed to be made in the definition of “Registrable Security” as is
appropriate in order to prevent any dilution or enlargement of the rights
granted pursuant to this Agreement. As used herein the term “Holder”
means
any
Person owning or having the right to acquire Registrable Securities or any
assignee thereof in accordance with Section 10
hereof. As used herein “Trading

shall
mean any business day on which the market on which the Common Stock trades
is
open for business.

RESTRICTIONS
ON TRANSFER
|
Each
of
the Investors acknowledges and understands that prior to the registration of
the
Securities as provided herein, the Securities are “restricted securities” as
defined in Rule 144. Each of the Investors understands that no disposition
or
transfer of the Securities may be made by any of the Investors in the absence
of
(i) an opinion of counsel to such Investor, in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Company, that such transfer may be made without registration
under the Securities Act or (ii) such registration.
3.
|
COMPLIANCE
WITH REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
|
With
a
view to making available to the Investors the benefits of Rule 144 or any other
similar rule or regulation of the Commission that may at any time permit the
holders of the Securities to sell securities of the Company to the public
pursuant to Rule 144, the Company agrees to:
(a) comply
with the provisions of paragraph (c)(1) of Rule 144;
(b) file
with
the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required
to be
filed with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange
Act”)
by
companies subject to either of such sections, irrespective of whether the
Company is then subject to such reporting requirements; and
(c) Upon
request by any Holder or the Company’s transfer agent, the Company shall provide
an opinion of counsel, which opinion shall be reasonably acceptable to the
Holder and/or the Company’s transfer agent, that such Holder has complied with
the applicable conditions of Rule 144 (or any similar provision then in
force).
4.
|
REGISTRATION
RIGHTS WITH RESPECT TO THE REGISTRABLE
SECURITIES
|
(a) The
Company agrees that it will prepare and file with the Commission, (i) within
90
calendar days from the date
hereof, a registration statement (on Form S-1 or SB-2, or other appropriate
registration statement form) under the Securities Act (the “Registration
Statement”),
and
(ii) if at least 20% of the Registrable Securities covered under the
Registration Statement filed under (i) remain unsold during the effective period
of such Registration Statement, then within 20 days following receipt of a
written notice from the holders representing a majority of such unsold
Registrable Securities, another Registration Statement so as to permit a resale
of the Securities under the Securities Act by the Holders as selling
stockholders and not as underwriters.
C-2
The
Company shall use diligent best efforts to cause the Registration Statement
to
become effective as soon as practical following the filing of the Registration
Statement. The Company will notify the Holders and its transfer agent of the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement within one Trading Day of such
event.
(b) The
Company will maintain the Registration Statement or post-effective amendment
filed under this Section 4
effective under the Securities Act until the earlier of (i) the date that none
of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement are or
may
become issued and outstanding, (ii) the date that all of the Registrable
Securities have been sold pursuant to such Registration Statement, (iii) the
date all the Holders receive an opinion of counsel to the Company, which counsel
shall be reasonably acceptable to the Holders, that the Registrable Securities
may be sold under the provisions of Rule 144 without limitation as to volume,
(iv) all Registrable Securities have been otherwise transferred to persons
who
may trade such shares without restriction under the Securities Act, and the
Company has delivered a new certificate or other evidence of ownership for
such
securities not bearing a restrictive legend, or (v) two years from the Effective
Date.
(c) All
fees,
disbursements and out-of-pocket expenses and costs incurred by the Company
in
connection with the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement under
this Section 4
and in
complying with applicable securities and blue sky laws (including, without
limitation, all attorneys’ fees of the Company) shall be borne by the Company.
The Company shall also reimburse the fees and expenses of counsel to the Holders
incurred in connection with such counsel’s review of the Registration Statement
and advice concerning the Registration Statement and its filing subject to
a cap
of $15,000. The Holders shall bear the cost of underwriting and/or brokerage
discounts, fees and commissions, if any, applicable to the Registrable
Securities being registered. The Holders and their counsel shall have a
reasonable period, not to exceed 15 Trading Days, to review the proposed
Registration Statement or any amendment thereto, prior to filing with the
Commission, and the Company shall provide the Holders with copies of any comment
letters received from the Commission with respect thereto within two Trading
Days of receipt thereof. The Company shall qualify any of the Registrable
Securities for sale in such states as the Holders reasonably designate and
shall
furnish indemnification in the manner provided in Section 7
hereof.
However, the Company shall not be required to qualify in any state which will
require an escrow or other restriction relating to the Company and/or the
Holders, or which will require the Company to qualify to do business in such
state or require the Company to file therein any general consent to service
of
process. The Company at its expense will supply each of the Investors with
copies of the applicable Registration Statement and the prospectus included
therein and other related documents in such quantities as may be reasonably
requested by any of the Investors.
(d) The
Company shall not be required by this Section 4
to
include the Registrable Securities in any Registration Statement which is to
be
filed if, in the opinion of counsel for both the Holders and the Company (or,
should they not agree, in the opinion of another counsel experienced in
securities law matters acceptable to counsel for the Holders and the Company)
the proposed offering or other transfer as to which such registration is
requested is exempt from applicable federal and state securities laws and would
result in all purchasers or transferees obtaining securities which are not
“restricted securities,” as defined in Rule 144.
C-3
(e) In
the
event that (i) the Registration Statement is not filed by the Company in a
timely manner as set forth in Section 4(a);
or
(ii) such Registration Statement is not maintained as effective by the Company
for the period set forth in Section 4(b)
above (each a “Registration
Default”),
then
the Company will issue to each of the Holders as of the first day of such
Registration Default and for every consecutive month in which such Registration
Default is occurring, as liquidated damages, and not as a penalty, warrants
to
purchase one (1) share of the Common Stock (“Default
Warrants”)
for
each share of Series D Preferred Stock issued to the Holders pursuant to the
Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement and the Debenture Purchase Agreement until
such corresponding Registration Default no longer exists (“Liquidated
Damages”);
provided, however, that the issuance of such Default Warrants shall not relieve
the Company from its obligations to register the Registrable Securities pursuant
to this Section.
If
the
Company does not issue the Default Warrants to the Holders as set forth above,
the Company will pay any Holder’s reasonable costs of any action in a court of
law to cause compliance with this Section 4(e),
including reasonable attorneys’ fees, in addition to the Default Warrants. The
registration of the Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section shall not
affect or limit a Holder’s other rights or remedies as set forth in this
Agreement.
(f) The
Company shall be precluded from including in any Registration Statement which
it
is required to file pursuant to this Section 4
any
other securities apart from the Registrable Securities, without the prior
written consent of the Holders.
(g) If,
at
any time any Registrable Securities are not at the time covered by any effective
Registration Statement, the Company shall determine to register under the
Securities Act (including pursuant to a demand of any stockholder of the Company
exercising registration rights) any of its shares of the Common Stock (other
than in connection with a merger or other business combination transaction
that
has been consented to in writing by holders of the Series D Preferred Stock,
or
pursuant to Form S-8 when such filing has been consented to in writing by
holders of the Series D Preferred Stock), it shall send to each Holder written
notice of such determination and, if within 20 days after receipt of such
notice, such Holder shall so request in writing, the Company shall its best
efforts to include in such registration statement all or any part of the
Registrable Securities that such Holder requests to be registered.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, in connection with any offering involving
an
underwriting of the Common Stock to by issued by the Company, the managing
underwriter shall impose a limitation on the number of shares of the Common
Stock included in any such registration statement because, in such underwriter’s
judgment, such limitation is necessary based on market conditions: (a) if the
registration statement is for a public offering of common stock on a “firm
commitment” basis with gross proceeds to the Company of at least $15,000,000 (a
“Qualified
Public Offering”),
the
Company may exclude, to the extent so advised by the underwriters, the
Registrable Securities from the underwriting; provided, however, that if the
underwriters do not entirely exclude the Registrable Securities from such
Qualified Public Offering, the Company shall be obligated to include in such
registration statement, with respect to the requesting Holder, only an amount
of
Registrable Securities equal to the product of (i) the number of Registrable
Securities that remain available for registration after the underwriter’s
cutback and (ii) such Holder’s percentage of ownership of all the Registrable
Securities then outstanding (on an as-converted basis) (the “Registrable
Percentage”);
and
(b) if the registration statement is not for a Qualified Public Offering, the
Company shall be obligated to include in such registration statement, with
respect to the requesting Holder, only an amount of Registrable Securities
equal
to the product of (i) the number of Registrable Securities that remain available
for registration after the underwriter’s cutback and (ii) such Holder’s
Registrable Percentage; provided, however, that the aggregate value of the
Registrable Securities to be included in such registration may not be so reduced
to less than 30% of the total value of all securities included in such
registration. If any Holder disapproves of the terms of any underwriting
referred to in this paragraph, it may elect to withdraw therefrom by written
notice to the Company and the underwriter. No incidental right under this
paragraph shall be construed to limit any registration required under the other
provisions of this Agreement.

COOPERATION
WITH COMPANY
|
Each
Holder will cooperate with the Company in all respects in connection with
this
Agreement, including timely supplying all information reasonably requested
by
the Company (which shall include all information regarding such Holder
and
proposed manner of sale of the Registrable Securities required to be disclosed
in any Registration Statement) and executing and returning all documents
reasonably requested in connection with the registration and sale of the
Registrable Securities and entering into and performing its obligations
under
any underwriting agreement, if the offering is an underwritten offering,
in
usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter or underwriters
of such
underwritten offering. Nothing in this Agreement shall obligate any Holder
to
consent to be named as an underwriter in any Registration Statement. The
obligation of the Company to register the Registrable Securities shall
be
absolute and unconditional as to those Registrable Securities which the
Commission will permit to be registered without naming any Holder as
underwriters. Any delay or delays caused by a Holder by failure to cooperate
as
required hereunder shall not constitute a Registration Default as to such
Holder.

REGISTRATION
PROCEDURES
|
If
and
whenever the Company is required by any of the provisions of this Agreement
to
effect the registration of any of the Registrable Securities under the
Securities Act, the Company shall (except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement), as expeditiously as possible, subject to the Holders’ assistance and
cooperation as reasonably required with respect to each Registration
Statement:
(a) (i) prepare
and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to the Registration
Statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary
to
keep such Registration Statement effective and to comply with the provisions
of
the Securities Act with respect to the sale or other disposition of all
Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement whenever
any of
the Holder shall desire to sell or otherwise dispose of the same (including
prospectus supplements with respect to the sales of Registrable Securities
from
time to time in connection with a registration statement pursuant to Rule
415
promulgated under the Securities Act) and (ii) take all lawful action such
that
each of (A) the Registration Statement and any amendment thereto does not,
when
it becomes effective, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or
omit to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the
statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made,
not misleading and (B) the prospectus forming part of the Registration
Statement, and any amendment or supplement thereto, does not at any time
during
the Registration Period include an untrue statement of a material fact
or omit
to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the
statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made,
not misleading;
C-5
(b) (i) prior
to
the filing with the Commission of any Registration Statement (including any
amendments thereto) and the distribution or delivery of any prospectus
(including any supplements thereto), provide draft copies thereof to the Holders
as required by Section 4(c)
and
reflect in such documents all such comments as the Holders (and their counsel)
reasonably may propose; (ii) furnish to each of the Holders such numbers of
copies of a prospectus including a preliminary prospectus or any amendment
or
supplement to any prospectus, as applicable, in conformity with the requirements
of the Securities Act, and such other documents, as any of the Holders may
reasonably request in order to facilitate the public sale or other disposition
of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder; and (iii) provide to the
Holders copies of any comments and communications from the Commission relating
to the Registration Statement, if lawful to do so;
(c) register
and qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement
under such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as any of
the
Holders shall reasonably request (subject to the limitations set forth in
Section 4(c)
above), and do any and all other acts and things which may be necessary or
advisable to enable such Holder to consummate the public sale or other
disposition in such jurisdiction of the Registrable Securities owned by such
Holder;
(d) list
such
Registrable Securities on the markets where the Common Stock of the Company
is
listed as of the effective date of the Registration Statement, if the listing
of
such Registrable Securities is then permitted under the rules of such
markets;
(e) notify
the Holders at any time when a prospectus relating thereto covered by the
Registration Statement is required to be delivered under the Securities Act,
of
the happening of any event of which it has knowledge as a result of which the
prospectus included in the Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes
an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing, and the Company
shall prepare and file a curative amendment under Section 6(a)
as
quickly as reasonably possible and during such period, the Holders shall not
make any sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement;
(f) after
becoming aware of such event, notify each of the Holders who holds Registrable
Securities being sold (or, in the event of an underwritten offering, the
managing underwriters) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order
or
other suspension of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement at the
earliest possible time and take all lawful action to effect the withdrawal,
rescission or removal of such stop order or other suspension;
C-6
(g) cooperate
with the Holders to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of
certificates for the Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to the
Registration Statement and enable such certificates for the Registrable
Securities to be in such denominations or amounts, as the case may be, as any
of
the Holders reasonably may request and registered in such names as any of the
Holders may request; and, within three Trading Days after a Registration
Statement which includes Registrable Securities is declared effective by the
Commission, deliver and cause legal counsel selected by the Company to deliver
to the transfer agent for the Registrable Securities (with copies to the
Holders) an appropriate instruction and, to the extent necessary, an opinion
of
such counsel;
(h) take
all
such other lawful actions reasonably necessary to expedite and facilitate the
disposition by the Holders of their Registrable Securities in accordance with
the intended methods therefor provided in the prospectus which are customary
for
issuers to perform under the circumstances;
(i) in
the
event of an underwritten offering, promptly include or incorporate in a
prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement
such information as the managers reasonably agree should be included therein
and
to which the Company does not reasonably object and make all required filings
of
such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment as soon as practicable
after it is notified of the matters to be included or incorporated in such
prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment; and
(j) maintain
a transfer agent and registrar for the Common Stock.

INDEMNIFICATION
|
(a) To
the
maximum extent permitted by law, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless each of the Holders, each person, if any, who controls any of the
Holders within the meaning of the Securities Act, and each director, officer,
shareholder, employee, agent, representative, accountant or attorney of the
foregoing (each of such indemnified parties, a “Distributing
Investor”)
against
any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several (which shall,
for
all purposes of this Agreement, include, but not be limited to, all reasonable
costs of defense and investigation and all reasonable attorneys’ fees and
expenses), to which the Distributing Investor may become subject, under the
Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon
any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained
in
any Registration Statement, or any related final prospectus or amendment or
supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; provided, however,
that
the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent, and only to
the
extent, that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is
based
upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
omission made in such Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus, final
prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto in reliance upon, and in
conformity with, written information furnished to the Company by the
Distributing Investor, its counsel, or affiliates, specifically for use in
the
preparation thereof or (ii) by such Distributing Investor’s failure to deliver
to the purchaser a copy of the most recent prospectus (including any amendments
or supplements thereto). This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any
liability which the Company may otherwise have.
C-7
(b) To
the
maximum extent permitted by law, each Distributing Investor agrees that it
will
indemnify and hold harmless the Company, and each officer and director of the
Company or person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the
Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (which shall,
for all purposes of this Agreement, include, but not be limited to, all
reasonable costs of defense and investigation and all reasonable attorneys’ fees
and expenses) to which the Company or any such officer, director or controlling
person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as
such
losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise
out
of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any
material fact contained in any Registration Statement, or any related final
prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based
upon
the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading,
but in each case only to the extent that such untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission was made in such Registration
Statement, final prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto in reliance
upon,
and in conformity with, written information furnished to the Company by such
Distributing Investor, its counsel or affiliates, specifically for use in the
preparation thereof. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any
liability which the Distributing Investor may otherwise have under this
Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Distributing
Investor shall be liable under this Section 7(b)
for
only that amount as does not exceed the net proceeds to such Distributing
Investor as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to the
Registration Statement.
(c) Promptly
after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 7
of
notice of the commencement of any action against such indemnified party, such
indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against
the
indemnifying party under this Section 7,
notify
the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission
so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party
from
any liability which it may have to any indemnified party except to the extent
the failure of the indemnified party to provide such written notification
actually prejudices the ability of the indemnifying party to defend such action.
In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it
notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying
party will be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that it may wish,
jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, assume the defense
thereof, subject to the provisions herein stated and after notice from the
indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the
defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified
party under this Section 7
for any
legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in
connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of
investigation, unless the indemnifying party shall not pursue the action to
its
final conclusion. The indemnified parties shall have the right to employ one
or
more separate counsel in any such action and to participate in the defense
thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall not be at the expense
of the indemnifying party if the indemnifying party has assumed the defense
of
the action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party unless
(i) the employment of such counsel has been specifically authorized in writing
by the indemnifying party, or (ii) the named parties to any such action
(including any interpleaded parties) include both the indemnified party and
the
indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have been advised by its
counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to the
indemnifying party different from or in conflict with any legal defenses which
may be available to the indemnified party or any other indemnified party (in
which case the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense
of such action on behalf of such indemnified party, it being understood,
however, that the indemnifying party shall, in connection with any one such
action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same
jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances,
be
liable only for the reasonable fees and expenses of one separate firm of
attorneys for the indemnified party, which firm shall be designated in writing
by the indemnified party). No settlement of any action against an indemnified
party shall be made without the prior written consent of the indemnified party,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld so long as such settlement
includes a full release of claims against the indemnified party.
C-8
All
fees
and expenses of the indemnified party (including reasonable costs of defense
and
investigation in a manner not inconsistent with this Section and all reasonable
attorneys’ fees and expenses) shall be paid to the indemnified party, as
incurred, within 10 Trading Days of written notice thereof to the indemnifying
party; provided, that the indemnifying party may require such indemnified party
to undertake to reimburse all such fees and expenses to the extent it is finally
judicially determined that such indemnified party is not entitled to
indemnification hereunder.
8.
|
CONTRIBUTION
|
In
order
to provide for just and equitable contribution under the Securities Act in
any
case in which (i) the indemnified party makes a claim for indemnification
pursuant to Section 7
hereof
but is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by
a
court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the
denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be
enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact that the express provisions
of
Section 7
hereof
provide for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the
Securities Act may be required on the part of any indemnified party, then the
Company and the applicable Distributing Investor shall contribute to the
aggregate losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which they may be subject
(which shall, for all purposes of this Agreement, include, but not be limited
to, all reasonable costs of defense and investigation and all reasonable
attorneys’ fees and expenses), in either such case (after contribution from
others) on the basis of relative fault as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among
other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material
fact
or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to
information supplied by the Company on the one hand or the applicable
Distributing Investor on the other hand, and the parties’ relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
statement or omission. The Company and the Distributing Investor agree that
it
would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section
8
were
determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which
does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this
Section 8.
The
amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses,
claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to
above
in this Section 8
shall
be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such
indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action
or claim. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning
of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from
any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
C-9
Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Section 8,
in no
event shall (i) any of the Distributing Investors be required to undertake
liability to any person under this Section 8
for any
amounts in excess of the dollar amount of the proceeds received by such
Distributing Investor from the sale of such Distributing Investor’s Registrable
Securities (after deducting any fees, discounts and commissions applicable
thereto) pursuant to any Registration Statement under which such Registrable
Securities are registered under the Securities Act and (ii) any underwriter
be
required to undertake liability to any person hereunder for any amounts in
excess of the aggregate discount, commission or other compensation payable
to
such underwriter with respect to the Registrable Securities underwritten by
it
and distributed pursuant to such Registration Statement.

otherwise specified herein) and shall be effective upon personal delivery,

requested) or two business days following deposit of such notice with an
