specifying the number of Warrant Shares to be purchased, during normal business

of
such Warrant Shares.
1.2
PAYMENT OF TAXES. The issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares shall be
made
without charge to the Warrantholder for any stock transfer or other issuance
tax
in respect thereto; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Warrantholder shall be required

RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER; RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS.
2.1
RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER; COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES LAWS. This Warrant and
the
Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of this Warrant may not be transferred
or assigned in whole or in part without compliance with all applicable federal

delivery of investment representation letters and legal opinions reasonably
satisfactory to the Company, if such are requested by the Company). The
Warrantholder, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges that this Warrant and the
Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise hereof are being acquired solely
for
the Warrantholder’s own account and not as a nominee for any other party, and
for investment, and that the Warrantholder will not offer, sell or otherwise

Act or any state securities laws.

RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS. This Warrant shall (and each Warrant issued in substitution
for this Warrant issued pursuant to Section 4 shall) be stamped or otherwise
imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:
“THIS
WARRANT AND ANY SHARES ACQUIRED UPON THE EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT HAVE NOT
BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD
OR
OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

form:
“THE
SHARES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED
EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FILED UNDER SUCH ACT
OR
PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT.”
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Warrantholder may require the Company to issue a stock
certificate for Warrant Shares without a legend if (i) such Warrant Shares
have
been registered for resale under the Securities Act or sold pursuant to Rule
144
under the Securities Act (or a successor rule thereto) or (ii) the Warrantholder
has provided an opinion of counsel addressed to the Company and reasonably
satisfactory to the Company that such registration is not required with respect
to such Warrant Shares.
3.
RESERVATION OF SHARES, ETC.
The
Company covenants and agrees that all Warrant Shares which are issued upon
the
exercise of this Warrant will, upon issuance, be validly issued, fully paid
and
nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens, security interests, charges and
other encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof, other than taxes in
respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue. The Company
further covenants and agrees that, during the Exercise Period, the Company

for
the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant.

this Warrant, the Company will execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor.
The term “Warrant” as used in this agreement shall be deemed to include any
Warrants issued in substitution or exchange for this Warrant.
5.
OWNERSHIP OF WARRANT.
The
Company may deem and treat the person in whose name this Warrant is registered
as the holder and owner hereof (notwithstanding any notations of ownership
or
writing hereon made by anyone other than the Company) for all purposes and
shall
not be affected by any notice to the contrary.
6.
CERTAIN ADJUSTMENTS.
6.1
The
number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and
the
Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment as follows:
(a)
STOCK
DIVIDENDS. If at any time prior to the earlier of the exercise of this Warrant
in full and the expiration of the Exercise Period (i) the Company shall fix
a
record date for the issuance of any stock dividend payable in shares of Common
Stock or (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock shall have been increased
by
a subdivision or split-up of shares of Common Stock, then, on the record date
fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive
such
dividend or immediately after the effective date of subdivision or split-up,
as
the case may be, the number of shares of Common Stock to be delivered upon
exercise of this Warrant will be increased so that the Warrantholder will be
entitled to receive the number of shares of Common Stock that such Warrantholder
would have owned immediately following such action had this Warrant been
exercised immediately prior thereto, and the Exercise Price will be adjusted
as
provided below in paragraph (e).
(b)
COMBINATION OF STOCK. If at any time prior to the earlier of the exercise of
this Warrant in full and the expiration of the Exercise Period the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding shall have been decreased by a combination
of
the outstanding shares of Common Stock, then, immediately after the effective
date of such combination, the number of shares of Common Stock to be delivered
upon exercise of this Warrant will be decreased so that the Warrantholder
thereafter will be entitled to receive the number of shares of Common Stock
that
such Warrantholder would have owned immediately following such action had this
Warrant been exercised immediately prior thereto, and the Exercise Price will
be
adjusted as provided below in paragraph (e).
(c)
REORGANIZATION, ETC. If at any time prior to the earlier of the exercise of
this
Warrant in full and the expiration of the Exercise Period, any reclassification
of the Common Stock shall be effected in such a way that the holders of Common
Stock shall be entitled to receive stock or other securities (the “Other
Securities”)
with
respect to or in exchange for Common Stock, then, this Warrant shall be deemed
to be exercisable for such Other Securities.
(d)
FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional shares of Common Stock or scrip shall be issued
to any Warrantholder in connection with the exercise of this Warrant. Instead
of
any fractional shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be issuable to such
Warrantholder, the Company will pay to such Warrantholder a cash adjustment
in
respect of such fractional interest in an amount equal to that fractional
interest of the closing price per share of Common Stock as listed on the OTC
Bulletin Board as of the date on which the Warrant was exercised.
(e)
EXERCISE PRICE ADJUSTMENT. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares purchasable
upon the exercise of the Warrant is adjusted, as herein provided, the Exercise
Price payable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted by multiplying
such Exercise Price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction, the
numerator of which shall be the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the
exercise of the Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, and the
denominator of which shall be the number of Warrant Shares purchasable
immediately thereafter.
(f)
NO
DUPLICATE ADJUSTMENTS. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained
herein, in no event will an adjustment be made under the provisions of this
Section 6 to the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant
or the Exercise Price for any event if an adjustment having substantially the
same effect to the Warrantholder as any adjustment that otherwise would be
made
under the provisions of this Section 6 is made by the Company for any such
event
to the number of shares of Common Stock (or other securities) issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant or the Exercise Price.
6.2
NO
ADJUSTMENT FOR DIVIDENDS. Except as provided in Section 6.1, no adjustment
in
respect of any dividends shall be made during the term of the Warrant or upon
the exercise of this Warrant.
6.3
NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENT. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares or the Exercise
Price of such Warrant Shares is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company shall
promptly mail by first class, postage prepaid, to the Warrantholder, notice
of
such adjustment or adjustments and a certificate of the chief financial officer
of the Company setting forth the number of Warrant Shares and the Exercise
Price
of such Warrant Shares after such adjustment, setting forth a brief statement
of
the facts requiring such adjustment and setting forth the computation by which
such adjustment was made.
