Resale
Registration.
|
On
or
prior to the date that is the earlier of twenty one (21) days after the Closing
or ten (10) days after Company’s Form 10-KSB for 2007 is filed with the SEC (the
“Filing
Date”),
the
Company shall prepare and file with the SEC a "resale" Registration Statement
providing for the resale of the Shares and the Warrant Shares (collectively,
the
“Registrable
Securities”)
for an
offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant and subject to Rule 415,
which was promulgated by the SEC pursuant to the 1933 Act, as such Rule may
be
amended from time to time, or any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted
by the SEC having substantially the same effect as such Rule (“Rule
415”).
The
Registration Statement shall be on Form S-1 (except if the Company is not then
eligible to register for resale the Registrable Securities on Form S-1, in
which
case such registration shall be on another appropriate form in accordance with
the Securities Act and the rules promulgated thereunder). The Company shall
(i)
not permit any securities other than the Registrable Securities and the
securities to be listed on Exhibit
B
hereto
to be included in the Registration Statement and (ii) use its reasonable best
efforts to cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective under
the
Securities Act as promptly as possible after the filing thereof, but in any
event prior to the date (the “Effectiveness
Date”)
that
is 120 days after the earlier of (i) the date of filing of the Registration
Statement, and (ii) the Filing Date, and to keep such Registration Statement
continuously effective under the Securities Act until such date as is the
earlier of (x) the date when all Registrable Securities covered by such
Registration Statement have been sold or (y) the date on which the Registrable
Securities may be sold without any restriction pursuant to Rule 144 as
determined by the counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter,
addressed to the Company's transfer agent to such effect (the "Effectiveness
Period").
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Subscription
Agreement, in the event the SEC does not permit the Company to register the
“resale” of all of the Registrable Securities anticipated to be so registered on
such Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 415, the Company shall register
in
the Registration Statement such number of Registrable Securities as is permitted
by the SEC, and the number of Registrable Securities to be included in such
Registration Statement or any subsequent registration statement shall be
determined on a pro rata basis among the Subscribers or in such amounts as
agreed upon by the Subscribers, where the amount of Shares and Warrant Shares
to
be registered for a Subscriber to cut back proportionately or as mutually agreed
upon. In the event the SEC
does
not
permit the Company to register all of the Registrable Securities in the
Registration Statement, the Company shall use its best efforts to register
the
Registrable Securities, subject to the foregoing sentence, that were not
registered in the Registration Statement as promptly as possible and in a manner
permitted by the SEC.

supplemented by any required prospectus supplement, and as so supplemented
or amended to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 (or any similar provisions
then in force) promulgated under the Securities Act; (iii) respond
as
promptly as possible, but in no event later than ten (10) business
days,
to any comments received from the SEC with respect to the Registration
Statement or any amendment thereto and as promptly as possible provide
the
Subscriber true and complete copies of all correspondence from and
to the
SEC relating to the Registration Statement; and (iv) comply in all
material respects with the provisions of the Securities Act and the
Exchange Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities
covered by the Registration Statement during the applicable period
in
accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the Subscriber
thereof set forth in the Registration Statement as so amended or
in such
prospectus as so supplemented. The
Company and the Subscriber agree that the Subscriber will suffer
damages
if the Company fails to cause the Registration Statement to be declared
effective by the Commission on or before the Effectiveness Date.
The
Company and the Subscriber further agree that it would not be feasible
to
ascertain the extent of such damages with precision. Accordingly,
if the
Company fails to cause the Registration Statement to be declared
effective
by the Commission on or before the Effectiveness Date, the Company
shall
pay an amount in cash as liquidated damages to the Subscriber equal
to
.025% for each day after the Effectiveness Date until the Registration
Statement is declared effective by the Commission. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall any
liquidated damages be payable with respect to the delay caused solely
due
to a Rule 415 comment by the SEC.

(c)
|
Notify
the Subscriber as promptly as possible (and, in the case of (i)(A)
below,
not less than five (5) days prior to such filing) and (if requested
by any
such person) confirm such notice in writing no later than one (1)
business
day following the day (i)(A) when a prospectus or any prospectus
supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement
is
filed; (B) when the SEC notifies the Company whether there will be
a
"review" of such Registration Statement and whenever the SEC comments
in
writing on such Registration Statement and (C) with respect to the
Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment, when the
same has
become effective; (ii) of any request by the SEC or any other Federal
or
state governmental authority for amendments or supplements to the
Registration Statement or prospectus or for additional information;
(iii)
of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness
of the Registration Statement covering any or all of the Registrable
Securities or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose;
(iv) if
at any time any of the representations and warranties of the Company
contained in any agreement contemplated hereby ceases to be true
and
correct in all material respects; (v) of the receipt by the Company
of any
notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification
or
exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable Securities
for sale
in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding
for such purpose; and (vi) of the occurrence of any event that makes
any
statement made in the Registration Statement or prospectus or any
document
incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue
in
any material respect or that requires any revisions to the Registration
Statement, prospectus or other documents so that, in the case of
the
Registration Statement or the prospectus, as the case may be, it
will not
contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state
any
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the
statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which
they
were made, not misleading.
|
-9-
(d)
|
Use
its reasonable best efforts to avoid the issuance of, or, if issued,
obtain the withdrawal of, (i) any order suspending the effectiveness
of
the Registration Statement or (ii) any suspension of the qualification
(or
exemption from qualification) of any of the Registrable Securities
for
sale in any jurisdiction, at the earliest practicable
moment.
|
(e)
|
If
requested by the Subscriber, (i) promptly incorporate in a prospectus
supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement
such
information as the Company reasonably agrees should be included therein
and (ii) make all required filings of such prospectus supplement
or such
post-effective amendment as soon as practicable after the Company
has
received notification of the matters to be incorporated in such prospectus
supplement or post-effective
amendment.
|
(f)
|
Furnish
to the Subscriber, without charge, at least one conformed copy of
each
Registration Statement and each amendment thereto, including financial
statements and schedules, all documents incorporated or deemed to
be
incorporated therein by reference, and all exhibits to the extent
requested by the Subscriber (including those previously furnished
or
incorporated by reference) promptly after the filing of such documents
with the SEC.
|
(g)
|
Promptly
deliver to the Subscriber, without charge, as many copies of the
prospectus or prospectuses (including each form of prospectus) and
each
amendment or supplement thereto as the Subscriber may reasonably
request;
and the Company hereby consents to the use of such prospectus and
each
amendment or supplement thereto by the Subscriber in connection with
the
offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by such prospectus
and any amendment or supplement
thereto.
|
(h)
|
Prior
to any public offering of the Registrable Securities, use its reasonable
best efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the Subscriber
in
connection with the registration or qualification (or exemption from
such
registration or qualification) of such Registrable Securities for
offer
and sale under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions
within the United States as the Subscriber requests in writing, to
keep
each such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom)
effective
during the Effectiveness Period and to use commercially reasonable
efforts
to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable
Securities covered by a Registration Statement; provided,
however,
that the Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do
business
in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or to take
any
action that would subject it to general service of process in any
such
jurisdiction where it is not then so subject or subject the Company
to any
material tax in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so
subject.
|
(i)
|
Cooperate
with the Subscriber to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery
of
certificates representing Registrable Securities to be sold pursuant
to a
Registration Statement, which certificates shall be free of all
restrictive legends (provided that the issuance of such unlegended
certificates is in compliance with applicable securities laws), and
to
enable such Registrable Securities to be in such denominations and
registered in such names as the Subscriber may request in writing
at least
two (2) business days prior to any sale of Registrable
Securities.
|
-10-
(j)
|
Upon
the occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 13.1(c)(vi),
as promptly as possible, prepare a supplement or amendment, including
a
post-effective amendment, to the Registration Statement or a supplement
to
the related prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to
be
incorporated therein by reference, and file any other required document
so
that, as thereafter delivered, neither the Registration Statement
nor such
prospectus will 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 the light of the circumstances under which
they
were made, not misleading.
|
(k)
|
Use
its reasonable best efforts to cause all Registrable Securities relating
to the Registration Statement to continue to be listed on the OTC
Bulletin
Board or
any other securities exchange, quotation system or market, if any,
on
which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed or
traded.
|
(l)
|
Comply
in all material respects with all applicable rules and regulations
of the
SEC and make generally available to its security holders earning
statements satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities
Act and Rule 158 not later than 45 days after the end of any 12-month
period (or 90 days after the end of any 12-month period if such period
is
a fiscal year) or such extended period as is permitted under the
Securities Act commencing on the first day of the first fiscal quarter
of
the Company after the effective date of the Registration Statement,
which
statement shall conform to the requirements of Rule
158.
|
(m)
|
The
Company may require the Subscriber to furnish to the Company information
regarding itself and the distribution of such Registrable Securities
as is
required by law to be disclosed in the Registration Statement, and
the
Company may exclude from such registration the Registrable Securities
of
the Subscriber if it unreasonably fails to furnish such information
within
a reasonable time after receiving such
request.
|
(n)
|
If
the Registration Statement refers to the Subscriber by name or otherwise
as the holder of any securities of the Company, then the Subscriber
shall
have the right to require (if such reference to the Subscriber by
name or
otherwise is not required by the Securities Act or any similar federal
statute then in force) the deletion of the reference to such Holder
in any
amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement filed or prepared
subsequent to the time that such reference ceases to be
required.
|
(o)
|
The
Subscriber covenants and agrees that (i) it will not sell any Registrable
Securities under the Registration Statement until it has received
copies
of the prospectus as then amended or supplemented as contemplated
in
Section 13.1(g)
and notice from the Company that such Registration Statement and
any
post-effective amendments thereto have become effective as contemplated
by
Section 13.1(c)
and (ii) it and its officers, directors or Affiliates, if any, will
comply
with the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act as
applicable to them in connection with sales of Registrable Securities
pursuant to the Registration
Statement.
|
(p)
|
The
Subscriber agrees by its acquisition of such Registrable Securities
that,
upon receipt of a notice from the Company of the occurrence of any
event
of the kind described in Section 13.1(c)(ii),
13.1(c)(iii),
13.1(c)(iv),
13.1(c)(v),
13.1(c)(vi)
or 13.1(q),
the Subscriber will forthwith discontinue disposition of such Registrable
Securities under the Registration Statement until the Subscriber's
receipt
of the copies of the supplemented prospectus and/or amended Registration
Statement contemplated by Section 13.1(j),
or until it is advised in writing (the "Advice")
by the Company that the use of the applicable prospectus may be resumed,
and, in either case, has received copies of any additional or supplemental
filings that are incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference
in
such prospectus or Registration
Statement.
|
-11-
(q)
|
If
(i) there is material non-public information regarding the Company
which
the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board")
reasonably determines not to be in the Company's best interest to
disclose
and which the Company is not otherwise required to disclose, or (ii)
there
is a significant business opportunity (including, but not limited
to, the
acquisition or disposition of assets (other than in the ordinary
course of
business) or any merger, consolidation, tender offer or other similar
transaction) available to the Company which the Board reasonably
determines not to be in the Company's best interest to disclose,
then the
Company may (x) postpone or suspend filing of a registration statement
for
a period not to exceed 30 consecutive days or (y) postpone or suspend
effectiveness of a registration statement for a period not to exceed
20
consecutive days; provided that the Company may not postpone or suspend
effectiveness of a registration statement under this Section 13.1(q)
for more than 45 days in the aggregate during any 360 day period;
provided,
however,
that no such postponement or suspension shall be permitted for consecutive
20 day periods arising out of the same set of facts, circumstances
or
transactions.

13.2 Registration
Expenses.
All
fees
and expenses incident to the performance of or compliance with this Agreement
by
the Company, except as and to the extent specified in this Section 13.2,

Registrable Securities are required hereunder to be listed, (B) with respect
to
filing fees required to be paid to the FINRA and the FINRA Regulation, Inc.
and
(C) in compliance with state securities or Blue Sky laws (including, without

14. |
Indemnification.
|
14.1
Indemnification
by the Company.
The
Company shall, notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, indemnify
and
hold harmless the Subscriber, the officers, directors, agents, brokers
(including brokers who offer and sell Registrable Securities as principal as
a
result of a pledge or any failure to perform under a margin call of Common
Stock), investment and other advisors and employees of the Subscriber, each
person who controls the Subscriber (within the meaning of Section 15 of the
Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and the officers, directors,
agents and employees of each such controlling person, to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims,
damages, liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, costs of preparation
and attorneys' fees) and expenses (collectively, "Losses"),
as
incurred, arising out of or relating to any untrue or alleged untrue statement
of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any prospectus
or
any form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any
preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged
omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus or form of prospectus
or
supplement thereto, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made) not misleading, except to the extent, but only to the extent, that (i)
such untrue statements or omissions are based solely upon information regarding
the Subscriber furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of the
Subscriber expressly for use therein, and (ii) that the foregoing indemnity
agreement is subject to the condition that, insofar as it relates to any untrue
statement, allegedly untrue statement, omission or alleged omission made in
any
preliminary prospectus but eliminated or remedied in the final prospectus (filed
pursuant to Rule 424 of the Securities Act), such indemnity agreement shall
not
inure to the benefit of the Subscriber or any underwriter, broker or other
person acting on behalf of holders of the Registrable Securities, from whom
the
person asserting any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense purchased the
Registrable Securities which are the subject thereof, if a copy of such final
prospectus had been made available to such person and the Subscriber or such
underwriter, broker or other person acting on behalf of the Subscriber and
such
final prospectus was not delivered to such person with or prior to the written
confirmation of the sale of such Registrable Securities to such person. The
Company shall notify the Subscriber promptly of the claim, threat or assertion
of any proceeding of which the Company is aware in connection with the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
-12-
14.2 Indemnification
by Subscriber.
The
Subscriber shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the
Company, its directors, officers, agents and employees, each person who controls
the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section
20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, agents and employees
of
such controlling persons, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law,
from and against all Losses (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction
in a final judgment not subject to appeal or review), as incurred, arising
solely out of or based solely upon any untrue statement of a material fact
contained in the Registration Statement, any prospectus, or any form of
prospectus, or arising solely out of or based solely upon any omission of a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein (in the case of any prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement
thereto, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not
misleading, to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement
or
omission is contained in any information so furnished in writing by the
Subscriber to the Company specifically for inclusion in the Registration
Statement or such prospectus. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, the Subscriber shall be liable under this Section 14.2
for only
that amount as does not exceed the lesser of (i) the dollar amount of the net
proceeds received by the Subscriber upon the sale of the Registrable Securities
giving rise to such indemnification obligation and (ii) the aggregate purchase
price paid by the Subscriber for the Securities pursuant to this
Agreement.
14.3 Contribution.
If a
claim for indemnification under Section 14.1
or
14.2
is
unavailable to an indemnified party because of a failure or refusal of a
governmental authority to enforce such indemnification in accordance with its
terms (by reason of public policy or otherwise), then each indemnifying party,
in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount
paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such Losses, in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the
indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other from
the offering of the Registrable Securities. If, but only if, the allocation
provided by the foregoing sentence is not permitted by applicable law, the
allocation of contribution shall be made in such proportion as is appropriate
to
reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in the foregoing sentence
but
also the relative fault, as applicable, of the indemnifying party and
indemnified party in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that
resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.
The relative fault of such indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be
determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question,
including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission
or alleged omission of a material fact, has been taken or made by, or relates
to
information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and
the parties'
relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct
or
prevent such action, statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a
party as a result of any Losses shall be deemed to include any reasonable
attorneys' or other reasonable fees or expenses incurred by such party in
connection with (i) any
proceeding to the extent such party would have been indemnified for such fees
or
expenses if the indemnification provided for in this Section was available
to
such party in accordance with its terms
or (ii)
enforcing any rights under this Section 14.
In no
event shall the Subscriber be required to contribute an amount under this
Section 14.3
in
excess of the net proceeds received by the Subscriber upon sale of the
Subscriber’s Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement
giving rise to such contribution obligation.
The
parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution
pursuant to this Section 14.3
were
determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that
does
not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the
immediately preceding paragraph. 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.
-13-
The
indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section are in addition
to any liability that the indemnifying parties may have to the indemnified
parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the
Subscriber shall be liable under this Section 14.3
for only
that amount as does not exceed the net proceeds to the Subscriber as a result
of
the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration
Statement.
15.

Rule
144.
|
As
long
as the Subscriber owns any Registrable Securities, the Company covenants to
timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the
applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after
the date hereof pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. As
long
as the Subscriber owns any Registrable Securities, if the Company is not
required to file reports pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange
Act,
it will prepare and furnish to the Subscriber and make publicly available in
accordance with Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act annual and
quarterly financial statements, together with a discussion and analysis of
such
financial statements in form and substance substantially similar to those that
would otherwise be required to be included in reports required by Section 13(a)
or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as well as any other information required thereby,
in the time period that such filings would have been required to have been
made
under the Exchange Act. The Company further covenants that it will take such
further action as the Subscriber may reasonably request in writing, all to
the
extent required from time to time to enable the Subscriber to sell the
Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within
the
limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the
Securities Act, including providing any legal opinions relating to such sale
pursuant to Rule 144.

EXERCISE
OF WARRANTS
|
4.1 Method
of Exercise of Warrants
The
right
to purchase shares conferred by the Warrants may be exercised by the Holder
surrendering the Warrant Certificate representing same, with a duly completed
and executed subscription in the form attached hereto and a bank draft or
certified cheque payable to the Company for the purchase price applicable at
the
time of surrender in respect of the shares subscribed for in lawful money of
the
United States of America, to the Company at the address set forth in, or from
time to time specified by the Company pursuant to, Section 3.2.
4.2 Effect
of Exercise of Warrants
(a)
|
Upon
surrender and payment as aforesaid the shares so subscribed for will
be
deemed to have been issued and such person or persons will be deemed
to
have become the Holder or Holders of record of such shares on the
date of
such surrender and payment, and such shares will be issued at the
subscription price in effect on the date of such surrender and
payment.
|
(b)
|
Within
ten business days after surrender and payment as aforesaid, the Company
will forthwith cause to be delivered to the person or persons in
whose
name or names the shares so subscribed for are to be issued as specified
in such subscription or mailed to him or them at his or their respective
addresses specified in such subscription, a certificate or certificates
for the appropriate number of shares not exceeding those which the
Warrant
Holder is entitled to purchase pursuant to the Warrant
surrendered.
|
4.3 Subscription
for Less Than Entitlement
The
Holder of any Warrant may subscribe for and purchase a number of shares less
than the number which he is entitled to purchase pursuant to the surrendered
Warrant. In the event of any purchase of a number of shares less than the number
which can be purchased pursuant to a Warrant, the Holder thereof upon exercise
thereof will in addition be entitled to receive a new Warrant in respect of
the
balance of the shares which he was entitled to purchase pursuant to the
surrendered Warrant and which were not then purchased.
4.4 Warrants
for Fractions of Shares
To
the
extent that the Holder of any Warrant is entitled to receive on the exercise
or
partial exercise thereof a fraction of a share, such right may be exercised
in
respect of such fraction only in combination with another Warrant or other
Warrants which in the aggregate entitle the Holder to receive a whole number
of
such shares.
4.5
Expiration
of Warrants
After
the
expiration of the period within which a Warrant is exercisable, all rights
thereunder will wholly cease and terminate and such Warrant will be void and
of
no effect.
-3-
4.6 Time
of Essence
Time
will
be of the essence hereof.
4.7
Subscription
Price
Each
Warrant is exercisable at a price per share (the “Exercise Price”) of Forty
Cents (US$0.40). One (1) Warrant and the Exercise Price are required to
subscribe for each share during the term of the Warrants.
4.8
Adjustment
of Exercise Price
(a)
|
The
Exercise Price and the number of shares deliverable upon the exercise
of
the Warrants will be subject to adjustment in the event and in the
manner
following:
|
(i)
|
If
and whenever the shares at any time outstanding are subdivided into
a
greater or consolidated into a lesser number of shares the Exercise
Price
will be decreased or increased proportionately as the case may be;
upon
any such subdivision or consolidation the number of shares deliverable
upon the exercise of the Warrants will be increased or decreased
proportionately as the case may be.
|
(ii)
|
In
case of any capital reorganization or of any reclassification of
the
capital of the Company or in the case of the consolidation, merger
or
amalgamation of the Company with or into any other Company (hereinafter
collectively referred to as a “Reorganization”), each Warrant will after
such Reorganization confer the right to purchase the number of shares
or
other securities of the Company (or of the Company’s resulting from such
Reorganization) which the Warrant Holder would have been entitled
to upon
Reorganization if the Warrant Holder had been a shareholder at the
time of
such Reorganization.
|
In
any
such case, if necessary, appropriate adjustments will be made in the application
of the provisions of this Article Four relating to the rights and interest
thereafter of the Holders of the Warrants so that the provisions of this
Article Four will be made applicable as nearly as reasonably possible to
any shares or other securities deliverable after the Reorganization on the
exercise of the Warrants.
The
subdivision or consolidation of shares at any time outstanding into a greater
or
lesser number of shares (whether with or without par value) will not be deemed
to be a Reorganization for the purposes of this clause 4.8(a)(ii).
(b)
|
The
adjustments provided for in this Section 4.8
are cumulative and will become effective immediately after the record
date
or, if no record date is fixed, the effective date of the event which
results in such adjustments.
|
-4-
4.9 Determination
of Adjustments
If
any
questions will at any time arise with respect to the Exercise Price or any
adjustment provided for in Section 4.8,
such
questions will be conclusively determined by the Company’s Auditors, or, if they
decline to so act any other firm of certified public accountants in the United
States of America that the Company may designate and who will have access to
all
appropriate records and such determination will be binding upon the Company
and
the Holders of the Warrants.
