Warrant – Page 2
CS = WCS x (FMV - EP)
FMV
Where:
CS equals the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the holder of the Warrant;
WCS equals the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable under the Warrant being exercised (at the date of such calculation);
FMV equals the Fair Market Value of one share of the Common Stock (at the date of such calculation); and
EP equals the Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation).
(b) For purposes of Rule 144 under the Securities Act, 17 C.F.R. ss. 230.144, as amended, the parties hereto agree that the exercise of this Warrant in accordance with this Section 2.2 shall be deemed to be a conversion of such Warrant, pursuant to the terms of this Warrant, into Common Stock.
