In order to exercise this Warrant, the Holder must furnish to the Company and the Warrant Agent either (a) a written certification that it is not a U.S. Person and that the Warrant is not being exercised on behalf of a U.S. Person or (b) a written Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the securities delivered upon exercise of the Warrant have been registered under the Securities Act or that the delivery of such securities is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Terms in this legend have the meanings given to them by Regulation S under the Securities Act.”

(g) Cancellation and/or Adjustment of Global Warrants. At such time as all beneficial interests in a particular Global Warrant have been exercised or exchanged for Definitive Warrants or a particular Global Warrant has been exercised, redeemed, repurchased or canceled in whole and not in part, each such Global Warrant shall be returned to or retained and canceled by the Warrant Agent in accordance with Section 3.8 hereof. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Warrant is exercised or exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Warrant or for Definitive Warrants, the amount of Warrants represented by such Global Warrant shall be reduced accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Warrant by the Warrant Agent or by the Depositary at the direction of the Warrant Agent to reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Warrant, such other Global Warrant shall be increased accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Warrant by the Warrant Agent or by the Depositary at the direction of the Warrant Agent to reflect such increase.

(h) General Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges.

(i) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute and the Warrant Agent shall countersign Global Warrants and Definitive Warrants upon the Company’s written order or at the Warrant Registrar’s request.

(ii) No service charge shall be made to a holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Warrant or to a Holder of a Definitive Warrant for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

(iii) All Global Warrants and Definitive Warrants issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Warrants or Definitive Warrants shall be the duly authorized, executed and issued warrants for Common Stock of the Company or such other Warrant Shares as may be issuable upon exercise of a Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, not subject to any preemptive rights, and entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement, as the Global Warrants or Definitive Warrants surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

(iv) In connection with the due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any Warrant, the Warrant Agent and the Company may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Warrant is registered as the absolute owner of such Warrant for all purposes and neither the Warrant Agent nor the Company shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, as to any certificates and/or certifications delivered to the Warrant Registrar pursuant to this Section 3.5, the Warrant Registrar’s duties shall be limited to confirming that any such certifications and certificates delivered to it are in the form of Exhibits E and F hereto. The Warrant Registrar shall not be responsible for confirming the truth or accuracy of representations made in any such certifications or certificates. As to any Opinions of Counsel delivered pursuant to this Section 3.5, the Warrant Registrar may rely upon, and be fully protected in relying upon, such Opinions of Counsel.

If required by the Warrant Agent or the Company, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the reasonable judgment of the Warrant Agent and the Company to protect the Company, the Warrant Agent and any agent for purposes of the countersignature from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Warrant Certificate is replaced. The Company may charge for its expenses in replacing a Warrant.

Every replacement Warrant is an additional Warrant of the Company and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Agreement equally and proportionately with all other Warrants duly issued hereunder.

Until certificates representing Warrants are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and issue and the Warrant Agent, upon receipt of a Warrant Countersignature Order, shall countersign temporary Warrants. Temporary Warrants shall be substantially in the form of certificated Warrants but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Warrants and that shall be reasonably acceptable to the Warrant Agent.

Certification of the destruction of all canceled Warrant Certificates shall be delivered to the Company. The Company may not issue new Warrant Certificates to replace Warrant Certificates that have been exercised in full or that have been delivered to the Warrant Agent for cancellation.

Section 4. Separation of Warrants; Exercise of Warrants; Terms of Warrants.

4.1. Separation Date. The Notes and Warrants shall not be separately transferable until the Separation Date.

Each Holder may elect, upon exercise of its Warrants during the Exercise Period, to receive Warrant Shares on a net basis, such that, without the exchange of any funds, the Holder shall receive such number of Warrant Shares as shall equal the product of (A) the number of Warrant Shares for which such Warrant is exercisable as of the date of exercise (if the Exercise Price were being paid in cash) and (B) the Cashless Exercise Ratio. Each Warrant not exercised prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Expiration Date shall become void and all rights thereunder and all rights in respect thereof under this Agreement shall cease as of such time.

Subject to the provisions of Section 5 hereof, upon compliance with Section 4.2 above, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered with all reasonable dispatch, to or to the written order of the Holder and in such name or names as the Holder may designate, a certificate or certificates for the number of whole Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of such Warrants or other securities or property to which such Holder is entitled hereunder, together with cash as provided in Section 9 hereof; provided, that if any consolidation, merger or lease or sale of assets is proposed to be effected by the Company or its Subsidiaries as described in Section 8.4 hereof, or a tender offer or an exchange offer for shares of Common Stock (or other securities of the Company which then constitute Warrant Shares) shall be made, upon such surrender of Warrant Certificates and payment of the aggregate Exercise Price in accordance with Section 4.2 above, the Company shall, as soon as possible, but in any event not later than two Business Days thereafter, deliver or cause to be delivered the full number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of such Warrants in the manner described in this sentence or other securities or property to which such Holder is entitled hereunder, together with cash as provided in Section 9 hereof. All certificates in this Section 4.3 shall be deemed to have been issued and any Person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a Holder of record of such Warrant Shares as of the date of the surrender of such Warrants and payment of the aggregate Exercise Price.

4.4. Partial Exercise of Warrants Held. During the Exercise Period the Warrants shall be exercisable, at the election of the Holders thereof, either in full or from time to time in part. If less than all the Warrants represented by a Warrant Certificate are exercised, such Warrant Certificate shall be surrendered and a new Warrant Certificate of the same tenor and for the number of Warrants that were not exercised shall be executed by the Company and delivered to the Warrant Agent, and the Warrant Agent shall countersign the new Warrant Certificate, registered in such name or names as may be directed in writing by the Holder and shall deliver or cause to be delivered the new Warrant Certificate to the Person or Persons entitled to receive the same.

4.5. Cancelled Warrant Certificates. All Warrant Certificates surrendered upon exercise of Warrants shall be cancelled by the Warrant Agent. Such cancelled Warrant Certificates shall then be disposed of by the Warrant Agent in accordance with its customary procedures or, upon written order from the Company, shall be returned to the Company.

Section 6. Reservation of Warrant Shares; Registration of Warrant Shares.

6.1. Authorization of Shares. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights and all taxes, liens, charges and security interests, out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued Common Stock (or such other Warrant Shares as may be issuable upon exercise of a Warrant) and/or the authorized and issued Common Stock (or such other Warrant Shares as may be issuable upon exercise of a Warrant) held in its treasury, for the purpose of enabling it to satisfy any obligation to issue Warrant Shares upon exercise of Warrants, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock which may then be deliverable upon the exercise of all outstanding Warrants.

6.2. Responsibility for Authorization. The Company or, if appointed, the transfer agent for the Common Stock (the “Transfer Agent”) and every subsequent transfer agent for any shares of the Company’s capital stock issuable upon the exercise of any of the rights of purchase represented by the Warrants shall be irrevocably authorized and directed at all times to reserve such number of authorized shares as shall be required for such purpose. The Company shall keep a copy of this Agreement on file with the Transfer Agent and with every subsequent transfer agent for any shares of the Company’s capital stock issuable upon the exercise of the rights of purchase represented by the Warrants. The Warrant Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized to requisition from time to time from such Transfer Agent the stock certificates required to honor outstanding Warrants upon exercise thereof in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Company shall supply such Transfer Agent with duly executed certificates for such purposes and shall provide or otherwise make available any cash which may be payable as provided in Section 9 hereof. The Company shall furnish such Transfer Agent a copy of all notices of adjustments, and certificates related thereto, transmitted to each Holder pursuant to Section 12 hereof.

6.3. Warrants Free and Clear. The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares issued upon exercise of Warrants shall, upon issue, be fully paid, nonassessable, free of preemptive rights and free from all taxes (other than income taxes, if applicable), liens, charges and security interests with respect to the issuance thereof.

Section 7. Obtaining Stock Exchange Listings.

The Company shall from time to time take all action which may be necessary so that the Warrant Shares, immediately upon their issuance upon the exercise of Warrants, will be listed on a principal securities exchange, automated quotation system or other market within the United States of America, if any, on which other shares of the Common Stock are then listed, if any.

Section 8. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Warrant Shares Issuable.

8.1. Adjustment for Change in Capital Stock. If the Company (i) pays a dividend or makes a distribution on its Common Stock payable in shares of its Common Stock, (ii) subdivides its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, (iii) combines its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or (iv) issues by reclassification of its Common Stock any shares of its capital stock, then the Exercise Price shall be proportionately adjusted so that, after giving effect to Section 8.5, the Holder of any Warrant exercised after such action may receive the aggregate number and kind of shares of capital stock of the Company which such Holder would have owned immediately following such action assuming the exercise of such Warrant immediately prior to such action, or, if applicable, the record date for such action.

The adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date in the case of a dividend or distribution and immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification.

If, after an adjustment pursuant to clause (iv) above, a Holder of a Warrant upon exercise of it may receive shares of two or more classes of capital stock of the Company, the Company shall determine, in good faith, the allocation of the adjusted Exercise Price between the classes of capital stock. After such allocation, the exercise privilege and the Exercise Price of each class of capital stock shall after such action be subject to adjustment on terms comparable to those applicable to Common Stock in this Section 8. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event listed above shall occur.

In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company shall not, whether by merger, consolidation, amendment to its certificate of incorporation, operation of law or otherwise, effect any stock split, recapitalization or similar adjustment to any class of its Common Stock unless simultaneously in connection therewith it effects an identical stock split, recapitalization or similar adjustment to each other class of its Common Stock.

8.2. Liquidity Event. If a Liquidity Event has not occurred on or before the date that is 18 months following the issue date of the Units, the aggregate number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants shall be increased by 7% of the Management Common Stock on such day that is 18 months following the issue date, and by an additional 4% of the Management Common Stock at the end of each 180-day period thereafter until the date of a Liquidity Event.

8.3. Par Value of Shares of Common Stock. Before taking any action that would cause an adjustment effectively reducing the portion of the Exercise Price allocable to each share of Common Stock below the then par value per share of the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, the Company shall take any corporate action which may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares upon exercise of the Warrants at the Exercise Price as so adjusted.

8.4. Reorganization of Company. If the Company consolidates or merges with or into, or transfers or leases all or substantially all its assets to, any Person, upon consummation of such transaction the Warrants shall automatically become exercisable for the kind and amount of securities, cash or other assets which the Holder of a Warrant would have owned immediately after the consolidation, merger, transfer or lease if the Holder had exercised the Warrant immediately before the consummation of the transaction. Concurrently with the consummation of such transaction, the corporation formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger if other than the Company, or the Person to which such sale or conveyance shall have been made, shall enter into a supplemental warrant agreement, including registration rights as nearly equivalent to those provided under Section 10 as practicable, and further providing for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practical to the adjustments provided for in this Section 8. The successor Company shall mail to Warrant Holders a notice describing the supplemental warrant agreement. If the issuer of securities deliverable upon exercise of Warrants under the supplemental warrant agreement is an Affiliate of the formed, surviving, transferee or lessee corporation, such issuer shall join in the supplemental warrant agreement.

8.5. Adjustment in Number of Shares. Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 8, each Warrant outstanding prior to the making of the adjustment shall thereafter evidence the right to receive upon payment of the adjusted Exercise Price that number of shares of Common Stock (calculated to the nearest hundredth) obtained from the following formula:

N’

E’

where:


N’	=	the adjusted number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of a Warrant.
N	=	the number or Warrant Shares previously issuable upon exercise of a Warrant.
E	=	the Exercise Price prior to adjustment.
E’	=	the adjusted Exercise Price.

8.6. Form of Warrants Certificate. Irrespective of any adjustments in the Exercise Price or the number or kind of shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants, Warrants theretofore or thereafter issued may continue to express the same price and number and kind of shares as are stated in the Warrants initially issuable pursuant to this Agreement.

8.7. Challenge to Good Faith Determination. Whenever the Board of Directors of the Company shall be required to make a determination in good faith of the Fair Market Value hereunder, such determination may be challenged by Holders holding in the aggregate a majority of the then outstanding Warrants (without regard to any Warrants then held by the Company or its Affiliates) (the “Majority Holders”), and any dispute shall be resolved by an investment banking firm of national standing selected by the Company. The fee of such investment banking firm shall be paid 50% by the Company and 50% by the Holders.

8.8. Actions by the Company. The Company will not, by merger, consolidation, amendment to its certificate of incorporation, sale of all or substantially all of its or its Subsidiaries assets, operation of law or otherwise by any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Agreement, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (i) will take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the Warrants and (ii) will not take any action which results in any adjustment of the Exercise Price if the total number of shares of the Common Stock issuable after the action upon the exercise of all the Warrants would exceed the total number of shares of the Common Stock then authorized by the Company’s charter and available for the purposes of issue upon such exercise.

Section 9. Fractional Interests.

The Company shall not be required to issue fractional Warrant Shares on the exercise of Warrants. If more than one Warrant shall be presented for exercise in full at the same time by the same Holder, the number of full Warrant Shares that shall be issuable upon the exercise thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of Warrant Shares purchasable on exercise of the Warrants so presented. If any fraction of a Warrant Share would, except for the provisions of this Section 9, be issuable on the exercise of any Warrants (or specified portion thereof), the Company shall pay an amount in cash equal to the Fair Market Value per Warrant Share then, in lieu of issuing such fraction of a Warrant Share, as determined on the day immediately preceding the date such Warrant is presented for exercise, multiplied by such fraction, computed to the nearest whole U.S. cent.

Section 10. Piggy-Back Registration; Other Holder Rights.

10.1. Piggy-Back Registration Rights. If the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act (other than a Registration Statement on Form S-4 or S-8 (or any successor form)) with respect to any class of equity securities of the Company, whether or not for its own account, then the Company shall give written notice of such proposed filing to the Holders of Warrants as soon as practicable (but in no event fewer than 10 Business Days before the anticipated filing date), and such notice shall offer such Holders the opportunity to register such number of Warrant Shares as each such Holder may request in writing within 10 days after receipt of such written notice from the Company (which request shall specify the Warrant Shares intended to be disposed of by such Selling Holder) (a “Piggy-Back Registration”). Upon the written request of any such Selling Holder made within 10 days after the receipt of any such notice (which request shall specify the number of Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by such Selling Holder and the intended method of disposition thereof, which shall be on the same terms and conditions as the securities of the Company or other security holder included in the registration statement), the Company shall, subject to the terms of this Agreement, effect the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities which the Company has been so requested to register by the Holders thereof, to the extent required to permit the disposition (in accordance with the intended methods thereof) of the Registrable Securities so to be registered, on the same terms and conditions as the securities of the Company or other security holder included in the registration statement by inclusion of such Registrable Securities in the

Registration Statement that covers the securities that the Company proposes to register; provided, that if at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any securities and prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement filed in connection with such registration, the Company shall determine for any reason either not to register or to delay registration of such securities, the Company may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to each Selling Holder and, thereupon, (i) in the case of a determination not to register shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Securities in connection with such registration (but not from its obligation to pay the Registration Expenses in connection therewith) and (ii) in the case of a determination to delay registering, shall be permitted to delay registering any Registrable Securities, for the same period as the delay in registering such other securities.

10.2. Inclusion in Registered Offering; Withdrawal. The Company shall cause the managing underwriter or underwriters of such proposed offering to permit the Registrable Securities requested to be included in a Piggy-Back Registration to be included on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the Company or any other selling security holder included therein and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of distribution thereof. Any Selling Holder shall have the right to withdraw its request for inclusion of its Registrable Securities in any Registration Statement pursuant to these provisions by giving written notice to the Company of its request to withdraw no less than 15 Business Days prior to the effective date of such Registration Statement.

10.3. Payment of Registration Expenses. The Company shall pay all Registration Expenses in connection with registration of Registrable Securities requested pursuant to this Section 10, and the Selling Holders shall pay the underwriting discounts, commissions, and transfer taxes, if any, relating to the sale of such Selling Holders’ Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 10.

10.4. Underwriter Cut-Back; Priority in Piggy-Back Registrations. If a registration pursuant to this Section 10 involves an underwritten offering of the securities so being registered, whether or not for sale for the account of the Company, the Company shall, if requested by any Selling Holder and subject to the provisions of this Section 10, arrange for such underwriters to include all the Registrable Securities to be offered and sold by such Selling Holder among the securities to be distributed by such underwriters. If the managing underwriter of such underwritten offering shall, in writing, inform the Selling Holders requesting such registration and the holders of any of the Company’s other securities which shall have exercised registration rights in respect of such underwritten offering of its belief that the number of securities requested to be included in such registration would materially and adversely affect the success of such offering, then the Company shall be required to include in such Registration Statement only the amount of securities that it is so advised should be included in such registration. In such event,

(a) in cases initially involving the registration for sale of securities for the Company’s own account, securities shall be registered in such offering in the following order of priority: (i) first, the securities that the Company proposes to register and (ii) second, the securities that have been requested to be included in such registration by Selling Holders and by Persons entitled to exercise “piggy-back” registration rights pursuant to contractual commitments

of the Company (pro rata on the amount of securities sought to be registered by such Selling Holders and such Persons; it being expressly understood that the Company may not reduce the amount of Registrable Securities included in such registration unless it reduces the amount sought to be registered by such Persons on a pro rata basis) and

(b) in cases not initially involving the registration for sale of securities for the Company’s own account, securities shall be registered in such offering as follows: (i) first, the securities that have been requested to be included in such registration by Selling Holders and other Persons entitled to exercise registration rights pursuant to contractual commitments (pro rata based on the amount of securities sought to be registered by such Holders and Persons); provided, that the Company may exclude securities sought to be registered by Selling Holders if (A) such registration is pursuant to a contractual “demand” registration right existing on the date hereof and such right expressly requires the Company to exclude such securities, and (B) all securities which the Company proposes to register are first excluded and (ii) second, the securities which the Company proposes to register.

10.5. Underwriter Cut-Back; Shelf Registration Rights. The number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in a Piggy-Back Registration is subject to reduction pursuant to Section 10.4 above. If as a result of such reduction (including pursuant to the proviso of Section 10.4(b)(i)), the holders of Registrable Securities are unable to include such Registrable Securities, the Company shall file a shelf Registration Statement on a Form S-3 or successor form (or if not available, any other then available Form) with respect to such Registrable Securities within 180 days, or such shorter time as the managing underwriter may agree, but in no event less than 30 days, of the effectiveness of such Registration Statement, and the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective within 45 days of filing and to remain effective for a period of one year following the effective date.

10.6. Market Stand Off. Each Holder of Warrants and Registrable Securities agrees, that if requested by the managing underwriter in connection with any underwritten public offering of the Company’s securities, not to directly or indirectly offer, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant for the sale of or otherwise dispose of or transfer any Registrable Securities held by it for such period, not to exceed (i) 180 days following consummation of an underwritten initial public offering, or (ii) 90 days following the consummation of any other underwritten public offering.

Section 11. Registration Procedures.

11.1. Responsibilities of the Company. In connection with any Piggy-Back Registration, the Company shall (provided, that it shall not be required to take any action pursuant to this Section 11 that would, in an opinion of counsel to the Company, violate applicable law):

(a) no fewer than five Business Days prior to the initial filing of a Registration Statement or Prospectus and no fewer than two Business Days prior to the filing of any amendment or supplement thereto (including any document that would be incorporated or

deemed to be incorporated therein by reference), if requested, furnish to the Selling Holders, their counsel and the managing underwriters, if any, confidential copies of all such documents proposed to be filed, and cause the Officers and directors of the Company, counsel to the Company and independent certified public accountants to the Company to respond to such inquiries as shall be reasonably necessary, in the opinion of respective counsel to such underwriters and to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of the Securities Act; provided, that the Company shall not be deemed to have kept a Registration Statement effective if it voluntarily takes or fails to take any action that results in Selling Holders covered thereby not being able to sell such Registrable Securities pursuant to federal securities laws during that period;

(b) Take such action as may be necessary so that (i) any Registration Statement and any amendment thereto and any Prospectus forming part thereof and any amendment or supplement thereto (and each report or other document incorporated herein by reference in each case) complies in all material respects with the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the respective rules and regulations thereunder, (ii) any 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 not misleading and (iii) any Prospectus forming part of any Registration Statement, and any amendment or supplement to such Prospectus, does not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

(c) Use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file with the SEC such amendments, including post-effective amendments, to each Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective for the amount of time that it is required to keep the Registration Statement effective in order to consummate the offering which gave rise to the registration rights granted herein, but no longer than one year; cause the related Prospectus to be supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement, and as so supplemented to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 (or any similar provisions then in force) under the Securities Act; and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement during such period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the sellers thereof set forth in such Registration Statement as so amended or in such Prospectus as so supplemented;

(d) Notify the Selling Holders, their counsel and the managing underwriters, if any, promptly (and in any case within two Business Days), and (if requested by any such Person), confirm such notice in writing:

(i) (A) when a Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed and (B) with respect to a 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 a Registration Statement or related Prospectus or for additional information;

(iii) of the issuance by the SEC, any state securities commission, any other governmental agency or any court of any stop order or injunction suspending or enjoining the use or the effectiveness of a Registration Statement 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 securities distribution agreement (including any underwriting agreement) contemplated hereby cease 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;

(vi) of the happening of any event that makes any statement made in such Registration Statement or related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that requires the making of any changes in such Registration Statement, Prospectus or documents so that, in the case of the Registration Statement, 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, not misleading, and that in the case of the Prospectus, 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 light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and

(vii) of the Company’s reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement would be appropriate;

(e) Use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid the issuance of, or, if issued, obtain the withdrawal of any order enjoining or suspending the use or effectiveness of, a Registration Statement or the lifting of 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;

(f) If requested by the managing underwriters, if any, reasonably in advance of the filing thereof, (i) promptly incorporate in a Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information as the managing underwriters, if any, reasonably agree should be included therein, (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 and (iii) supplement or make amendments to such Registration Statement;

(g) Deliver to each Selling Holder, their counsel, and the underwriters, if any, without charge, as many copies of the Prospectus or Prospectuses (including each form of Prospectus) and each amendment or supplement thereto as such Persons reasonably request; and

the Company hereby consents to the use of such Prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto by each of the Selling Holders and the underwriters, if any, 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 Registrable Securities, cooperate with the Selling Holders of Registrable Securities to be sold or tendered for, the underwriters, if any, and their respective counsel 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 any Selling Holder or underwriter reasonably requests in writing; provided, that where Registrable Securities are offered other than through an underwritten offering, the Company agrees to (i) cause its counsel to perform “blue sky” investigations and file registrations and qualifications required to be filed pursuant to this Section 11(h); (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to keep each such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the period such Registration Statement is required to be kept effective; and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to do any and all other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement; provided, 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 tax in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject;

(i) In connection with any sale or transfer of Registrable Securities that will result in such securities no longer being Registrable Securities, cooperate with the Selling Holders and the managing underwriters, if any, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates (with appropriate CUSIP numbers) representing Registrable Securities to be sold, which certificates shall not bear any restrictive legends and shall be in a form eligible for deposit with DTC, and to enable such Registrable Securities to be in such denominations and registered in such names as the managing underwriters, if any, or Holders may request at least two Business Days prior to any sale of Registrable Securities;

(j) Use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the offering of the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities within the United States, except as may be required as a consequence of the nature of such Selling Holder’s business, in which case the Company shall cooperate in all reasonable respects at the expense of such Selling Holder with the filing of such Registration Statement and the granting of such approvals as may be necessary to enable the seller or sellers thereof or the underwriters, if any, to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities; provided, 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 tax in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject;

(k) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 11(d)(vi) or 11(d)(vii), as promptly as practicable, prepare a supplement or amendment, including, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment, to each 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, such Prospectus will not 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. If the Company notifies the Selling Holders of the occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 11(d)(vi) or 11(d)(vii) above, the Selling Holders shall suspend the use of the Prospectus until the requisite changes to the Prospectus have been made;

(l) Enter into such agreements (including an underwriting agreement in form, scope and substance as is customary in underwritten offerings) and take all such other reasonable actions in connection therewith (including those reasonably requested by the managing underwriters, if any, in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities, and in such connection, whether or not an underwriting agreement is entered into and whether or not the registration is an underwritten registration,

(i) make such representations and warranties to the Selling Holders of such Registrable Securities and the underwriters, if any, with respect to the business of the Company (including with respect to businesses or assets acquired or to be acquired by it), and the Registration Statement, Prospectus and documents, if any, incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein, in each case, in form, substance and scope as are customarily made by issuers to underwriters in underwritten offerings, and confirm the same if and when requested;

(ii) obtain opinions of counsel to the Company and updates thereof (which counsel and opinions (in form, scope and substance) shall be reasonably satisfactory to the managing or sole underwriters, if any, addressed to the underwriters, if any, covering the matters customarily covered in opinions requested in underwritten offerings and such other matters as may be reasonably requested by such underwriters);

(iii) obtain customary “comfort” letters and updates thereof (including, if such registration includes an underwritten public offering, a “bring down” comfort letter dated the date of the closing under the underwriting agreement) from the independent certified public accountants of the Company (and, if necessary, any other independent certified public accountants of any business which may hereafter be acquired by the Company for which financial statements and financial data are required to be included in the Registration Statement), addressed to each of the underwriters, if any, such letters to be in customary form and covering matters of the type customarily covered in “comfort” letters in connection with underwritten offerings and such other matters as reasonably required by the managing underwriter or underwriters and as permitted by the Statement on Auditing Standards No. 72.

(iv) if an underwriting agreement is entered into, the same shall contain customary covenants on the part of the Company and will provide that the

Company will indemnify the Holders of Registrable Securities included in the registration statement and any underwriter with respect thereto against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act; and

(v) deliver such documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested by the managing underwriters, if any, to evidence the continued validity of the representations and warranties made pursuant to Section 11(l)(i) above and to evidence compliance with any customary conditions contained in the underwriting agreement or other agreement entered into by the Company;

(m) Make available for inspection by one representative of the managing underwriter participating in any such disposition of Registrable Securities, if any, and any attorney, consultant or accountant retained by such underwriter (collectively, the “Inspectors”), at the offices where normally kept, during reasonable business hours, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company (including with respect to business and assets acquired or to be acquired to the extent that such information is available to the Company), and cause the Officers, directors, agents and employees of the Company (including with respect to business and assets acquired or to be acquired to the extent that such information is available to the Company) to supply all information in each case reasonably requested by any such Inspector in connection with such Registration; provided, the Company may first require that such Persons agree to keep confidential any non-public information relating to the Company received by such Person and not disclose such information (other than to an Affiliate or prospective purchaser who agrees to respect the confidentiality provisions of this Section 11(m)) until such information has been made generally available to the public (other than as a result of a disclosure or failure to safeguard by such Inspector) unless the release of such information is required by law or necessary to respond to inquiries of regulatory authorities (including the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, or similar organizations or their successors); without limiting the foregoing, no such information shall be used by such Inspector as the basis for any market transactions in securities of the Company or its Subsidiaries, if any, in violation of law;

(n) Comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and make generally available to their security holders earning statements satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder (or any similar rule promulgated under the Securities Act) no 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) (i) commencing at the end of any fiscal quarter in which Registrable Securities are sold to underwriters in a firm commitment or reasonable efforts underwritten offering and (ii) if not sold to underwriters in such an offering commencing on the first day of the first fiscal quarter after the effective date of a Registration Statement, which statement shall cover said period, consistent with the requirements of Rule 158; and

(o) Use commercially reasonable efforts to take all other steps reasonably necessary to effect the registration, offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement.

11.2. Information Required by the Company. The Company may require each Selling Holder as to which any registration is being effected to furnish to the Company such information regarding the distribution of such Registrable Securities as is required by law to be disclosed in the applicable Registration Statement, and the Company may exclude from such registration the Registrable Securities of any Selling Holder who unreasonably fails to furnish such information promptly after receiving such request.

11.3. Requests by the Holder. If any such Registration Statement refers to any Selling Holder by name or otherwise as the holder of any securities of the Company, then such Selling Holder shall have the right to require (i) the insertion therein of language, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Selling Holder, to the effect that the holding by such Selling Holder of such securities is not to be construed as a recommendation by such Selling Holder of the investment quality of the Company’s securities covered thereby and that such holding does not imply that such Selling Holder will assist in meeting any future financial requirements of the Company, or (ii) in the event that such reference to such Selling Holder 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 Selling Holder in any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement filed or prepared subsequent to the time that such reference ceases to be required.

11.4. Indemnification.

(a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Selling Holder and each Person, if any, who controls such Selling Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each Selling Holder and such controlling Persons are referred to collectively as the “Selling Holder Indemnified Parties”) from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, or any actions in respect thereof (including, but not limited to, any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions relating to purchases and sales of the Registrable Securities) to which each Selling Holder Indemnified Party may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement or Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus relating to a shelf registration, 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, and shall reimburse, as incurred, the Selling Holder Indemnified Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect thereof; provided, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in a Registration Statement or Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus relating to a shelf registration in reliance upon and in conformity with written information pertaining to such Selling Holder and furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Selling Holder specifically for inclusion therein.

(b) Indemnification by Selling Holder. The Selling Holders shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the

meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (the Company and such controlling Persons are referred to collectively as the “Company Indemnified Parties”) from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, or any actions in respect thereof (including, but not limited to, any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions relating to purchases and sales of the Registrable Securities) to which each Company Indemnified Party may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement or Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus relating to a shelf registration, 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, to the extent, but only to the extent, that such losses resulted solely from an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a material fact contained in or omitted from an information so furnished in writing by such Selling Holder to the Company expressly for use therein.

(c) The Warrant Agent may consult at any time with counsel satisfactory to it (who may be counsel for the Company) and the Warrant Agent shall incur no liability or responsibility to the Company or to any Holder of any Warrant Certificate in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the written opinion or the written advice of such counsel. The Warrant Agent shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by any Officer within its corporate trust department or a Person performing similar functions, unless it is proved that the Warrant Agent was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts. The Warrant Agent shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to this Agreement or which it reasonably believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers under this Agreement. The Warrant Agent may act through its attorneys and agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent appointed with due care. The duties of the Warrant Agent shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement and the Warrant Agent need perform only those duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement and no covenants or obligations shall be implied in or read into this Agreement against the Warrant Agent. The permissive right of the Warrant Agent to take any action under this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty to so act. The Warrant Agent may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys, and the Warrant Agent shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed by it with due care hereunder.

(d) The Warrant Agent shall incur no liability or responsibility to the Company or to any Holder of any Warrant Certificate for any action taken or not taken in reliance on any Warrant Certificate, certificate of shares or other written evidence of indebtedness, notice, resolution, waiver, statement, instrument, opinion, report, request, direction, consent, order, certificate, or other paper, document or instrument believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or presented by the proper party or parties. The Warrant Agent shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any such Warrant Certificate, certificate of shares or other evidence of indebtedness, notice, resolution, waiver, statement, instrument, opinion, report, request, direction, consent, order, certificate or other paper or document, but the Warrant Agent, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit.

(e) The Company agrees to pay promptly to the Warrant Agent reasonable compensation for all services rendered by the Warrant Agent in the execution of this Agreement, to reimburse promptly the Warrant Agent for all reasonable expenses, taxes and governmental charges and other charges of any kind and nature incurred by the Warrant Agent in the execution of this Agreement (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Company). The Company shall indemnify the Warrant Agent against any and all losses, liabilities or expenses incurred by it arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Agreement, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Agreement against the Company and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Company or any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except to the extent any such loss, liability or expense may be attributable to its negligence or bad faith.

(f) The Warrant Agent shall be under no obligation to institute any action, suit or legal proceeding or to take any other action likely to involve expense unless the Company or one or more registered Holders of Warrants shall furnish the Warrant Agent with reasonable security and indemnity for any costs and expenses which may be incurred, but this provision shall not affect the power of the Warrant Agent to take such action as it may consider proper, whether with or without any such security or indemnity.

possession of any of the Warrant Certificates or the production thereof at any trial or other proceeding relative thereto, and any such action, suit or proceeding instituted by the Warrant Agent shall be brought in its name as Warrant Agent and any recovery of judgment shall be for the ratable benefit of the registered Holders of the Warrants, as their respective rights or interests may appear.

The Warrant Agent shall not be liable for anything which it may do or refrain from doing in connection with this Agreement except for its own gross negligence or bad faith.

(i) The Warrant Agent shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder of any Warrant Certificate to make or cause to be made any adjustment of the Exercise Price or to determine the Cashless Exercise Ratio or the number of the Warrant Shares or other securities or property deliverable as provided in this Agreement, or to determine whether any facts exist which may require any of such adjustments, or with respect to the nature or extent of any such adjustments, when made, or with respect to the method employed in making the same (including determinations or calculations with respect to the Fair Market Value of any capital stock of the Company). The Warrant Agent shall not be accountable with respect to the validity or value or the kind or amount of any Warrant Shares or of any securities or property which may at any time be issued or delivered upon the exercise of any Warrant or with respect to whether any such Warrant Shares or other securities will when issued be validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable, and makes no representation with respect thereto.

(o) The Warrant Agent shall not incur any liability with respect to the validity of this Agreement (except as to the due execution hereof by the Warrant Agent) or any Warrant Certificate (except as to the countersignature thereof by the Warrant Agent).

(p) The Warrant Agent shall not be responsible for any of the recitals or representations contained herein (except as to such statements or recitals that describe the Warrant Agent or action taken or to be taken by it) or in any Warrant Certificate (except as to the Warrant Agent’s countersignature on such Warrant Certificate).

(q) In no event shall the Warrant Agent be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its reasonable control, including without limitation strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software or hardware) services.

(r) In no event shall the Warrant Agent be liable for special, indirect, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Warrant Agent has been advised of the likelihood of the loss or damage and regardless of the form of the action.

(s) The Warrant Agent is hereby authorized to establish a non-interest bearing trust account to receive funds, if any, in connection with the Election to Purchase.

Section 15. Change of Warrant Agent.

If the Warrant Agent shall resign or become incapable of acting as Warrant Agent, the Company shall appoint a successor to such Warrant Agent. If the Company shall fail to make such appointment within a period of 30 days after it has been notified in writing of such resignation or incapacity by the Warrant Agent or by the registered Holder of a Warrant, then the registered Holder of any Warrant may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor to the Warrant Agent. Pending appointment of a successor to such Warrant Agent, either by the Company or by such court, the duties of the Warrant Agent shall be carried out by the Company. The Holders of a majority of the unexercised Warrants shall be entitled at any time to remove the Warrant Agent and appoint a successor to such Warrant Agent. Such successor to the Warrant Agent shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company. After appointment the successor to the Warrant Agent shall be vested with the same powers, rights,

duties and responsibilities as if it had been originally named as Warrant Agent without further act or deed; provided, that the former Warrant Agent shall deliver and transfer to the successor to the Warrant Agent any property at the time held by it hereunder and execute and deliver any further assurance, conveyance, act or deed necessary for the purpose upon written request therefor. Failure to give any notice provided for in this Section 15, however, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of the appointment of a successor to the Warrant Agent.

Section 16. Reports.

16.1. Available Upon Request of Holder. The Company agrees with each Holder, for so long as any Warrants or Warrant Shares (to the extent the Warrant Shares then consist of securities of the Company) remain outstanding, to make available, upon request of any Holder, to such Holder or beneficial owner of Warrants or Warrant Shares in connection with any sale thereof and any prospective purchaser of such Warrants or Warrant Shares designated by such Holder or beneficial owner, the information required by Rule 144(A)(d)(4) under the Securities Act.

The Company shall promptly notify the Warrant Agent of any change in the CUSIP number.

A copy of the Warrant Agreement may be obtained by the Holder hereof upon written request to the Company.

Warrants may be exercised during the Exercise Period and at any time on or before the Expiration Date.

Subject to certain limitations, the Company has agreed to provide the Holders certain “piggyback” registration rights if at any time after the date of the Warrant Agreement the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement with respect to an offering of its Common Stock.

Warrant Certificates, when surrendered at the corporate trust office of the Warrant Agent by the registered Holder thereof in Person or by legal representative or attorney duly authorized in writing, may be exchanged, in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Warrant Agreement, but without payment of any service charge, for another Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates of like tenor evidencing in the aggregate a like number of Warrants.

Upon due presentation for registration of transfer of this Warrant Certificate at the corporate trust office of the Warrant Agent a new Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates of like tenor and evidencing in the aggregate a like number of Warrants shall be issued to the transferee(s) in exchange for this Warrant Certificate, subject to the limitations provided in the Warrant Agreement, without charge except for any tax or other governmental charge imposed in connection therewith.
