This Warrant may be exercised, in whole or in part, for shares of Common Stock (but not for a fraction of a share) upon surrender to the Company at its principal office (or at such other location as the Company may advise the Holder in writing) of this Warrant properly endorsed with (i) the Form of Subscription attached as Exhibit A hereto duly completed and executed, (ii) payment pursuant to Section 2 of the aggregate Exercise Price for the number of shares for which this Warrant is being exercised determined in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant, and (iii) any

documents reasonably requested by the Company to be executed by the Holder. The shares of Common Stock purchased under this Warrant shall be and are deemed to be issued to the Holder, as the record owner of such shares, as of the close of business on the date of exercise. Certificates for the shares of the Common Stock so purchased, together with any other securities or property to which the Holder is entitled upon such exercise, shall be delivered to the Holder by the Company at the Company’s expense as soon as practicable after the rights represented by this Warrant have been so exercised. Each stock certificate so delivered shall be in such denominations of Common Stock as may be requested by the Holder and shall be registered in the name of such Holder. In case of a purchase of less than all the Warrant Shares, the Company shall execute and deliver to Holder within five (5) business days after the date of exercise an Acknowledgement in the form attached as Exhibit B indicating the number of Warrant Shares which remain subject to this Warrant, if any.

          2. Payment for Shares. The aggregate purchase price for Warrant Shares being purchased hereunder may be paid either (i) by check or wire transfer of immediately available funds or (ii) by surrender of a number of Warrant Shares which have a fair market value equal to the aggregate purchase price of the Warrant Shares being purchased (“Net Issuance”) as determined herein. If the Holder elects the Net Issuance method of payment, the Company shall ) issue to Holder upon exercise a number of shares of Warrant Shares determined in accordance with the following formula:

     where: X = the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder;

          Y = the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which the Holder is exercising its purchase rights under this Warrant;

          A = the Fair Market Value (as defined below) of one (1) Warrant Share on the date of exercise; and

          B = the Exercise Price on the date of exercise.

     No fractional shares arising out of the above formula, or otherwise arising out of the exercise of this Warrant, shall be issued. The Company shall in lieu thereof make payment to the Holder of cash in the amount of such fraction multiplied by the Fair Market Value of one share of the Warrant Shares on the date of exercise. The term “Fair Market Value” of one (1) share of the Warrant Shares shall mean (a) if the Common Stock is then traded on a national securities exchange or Nasdaq, the average of the closing prices of such Common Stock on such exchange over the ten (10) trading day period (or portion thereof) ending three (3) trading days prior to the date of exercise, multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock into which each share of the Warrant Shares is then convertible, (b) if the Common Stock is then regularly traded over-the-counter, the average of the closing sale prices or secondarily the closing bid of such Common Stock over the ten (10) trading day period (or portion thereof) ending three (3) trading days prior to the date of exercise, multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock into which each

2

share of the Warrant Shares is then convertible, or (c) if there is no active public market for the Common Stock, the fair market value thereof as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock into which each share of the Warrant Shares is then convertible.

          3. Shares to be Fully Paid; Reservation of Shares. The Company covenants and agrees that all shares of Common Stock which may be issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all preemptive rights of any stockholder and free of all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof. The Company further covenants and agrees that during the period within which the rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will at all times have authorized and reserved, for the purpose of issue or transfer upon exercise of the subscription rights evidenced by this Warrant, a sufficient number of shares of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock or other securities and property, when and as required to provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant. If at any time prior to the Expiration Date the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to permit the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, the Company will take such corporate action, subject to receipt of any required stockholder approval, as may be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock as shall be sufficient for such purpose.

          4. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares. The Exercise Price and the number of shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain events described in this Section 4. Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price, the Holder of this Warrant shall thereafter be entitled to purchase, at the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment, the number of shares obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of shares purchasable pursuant hereto immediately prior to such adjustment, and dividing the product thereof by the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment.

               4.1 Stock Dividends. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding and unexpired, pays a dividend or distribution payable in Common Stock, then the Exercise Price shall be adjusted, from and after the date of determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, to that price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such date of determination by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to such dividend or distribution, and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately after such dividend or distribution.

               4.2 Stock Splits or Combinations. In the event the Company shall at any time split or subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced, and in the event the outstanding shares of the Common Stock of the Company shall be combined or reverse split into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased.

               4.3 Reclassification. In the event of any reclassification, change or conversion of securities of the class issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination described in Section 4.2), then the Company shall take all necessary actions (including but not limited to executing and delivering to the Holder of this Warrant an additional Warrant or other instrument, in form and substance satisfactory to the holder of this Warrant) to ensure that the Holder of this Warrant shall thereafter have the right to receive, at a total purchase price not to exceed that payable upon the exercise of the unexercised portion of this Warrant, and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock theretofore issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities, money and property receivable upon such reclassification, change or conversion by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock then purchasable under this Warrant. Such new Warrant shall provide for adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 4. The provisions of this Section 4.3 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, changes and conversions.

               4.4 Consolidation, Merger or Sale. In the event of any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into any other corporation, entity or person, or any other corporate reorganization, in which the Company shall not be the continuing or surviving entity of such consolidation, merger or reorganization, or any transaction in which in excess of 50% of the Company’s voting power is transferred, or any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (any such transaction being hereinafter referred to as a “Reorganization”), then the Company will have the right to cancel this Warrant provided that, upon the consummation or effective date of such Reorganization, the Holder will receive, in lieu of this Warrant, the stock and other securities and property (including cash) to which such Holder would have been entitled upon the date of such Reorganization if such Holder had exercised this Warrant immediately prior thereto pursuant to the Net Issuance provisions of Section 2 and this Warrant had been exercisable for all of the Warrant Shares as of the date of such Reorganization.

               4.5 Notice of Adjustment. Upon any adjustment provided for under -this Section 4, the Company shall give written notice thereof, by first class mail postage prepaid, addressed to the registered Holder of this Warrant at the address of such Holder as shown on the books of the Company.
