(b) Partial Exercise. If this Warrant is exercised for less than all of the shares of Common Stock purchasableunder this Warrant, the Company shall cancel this Warrant upon surrender hereof and shall execute and deliver to the Holder a new Warrant of like tenor for the balance of the shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder. 

(c) When Exercise Effective. The exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been effective immediately priorto the close of business on the Business Day on which this Warrant is surrendered to and the Purchase Price is received by the Company as provided in this Section 2 (the “Exercise Date”) and the Person in whose name any certificatefor shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon such exercise, as provided in Subsection 2(b), shall be deemed to be the record holder of such shares of Common Stock for all purposes on the Exercise Date. 

3. Adjustment of Purchase Price and Number of Shares. The Purchase Price and the number of shares of Common Stockissuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted from time to time upon the occurrence of the following events: 

(a) Dividend, Subdivision, Combination or Reclassification of Common Stock. If the Company shall, at any time or from time to time, (i) declare a dividend on the Common Stock payable in shares of itscapital stock (including Common Stock), (ii) subdivide the outstanding Common Stock into a larger number of shares of Common Stock, (iii) combine the outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of its Common Stock, or(iv) issue any shares of its capital stock in a reclassification of the Common Stock (including any such reclassification in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation), then in each suchcase, the Purchase Price in effect at the time of the record date for such dividend or of the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification, and the number and kind of shares of capital stock issuable on such date shall beproportionately adjusted so that the Holder of any Warrant exercised after such date shall be entitled to receive, upon payment of the same aggregate amount as would have been payable before such date, the aggregate number and kind of shares 

 

3 

of capital stock which, if such Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to such date, such Holder would have owned upon such exercise and been entitledto receive by virtue of such dividend, subdivision, combination or reclassification. Any such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date of such dividend or the effective date of such subdivision, combination orreclassification. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event listed above shall occur. If a dividend is declared and such dividend is not paid, the Purchase Price shall again be adjusted to be the Purchase Price in effectimmediately prior to such record date (giving effect to all adjustments that otherwise would be required to be made pursuant to this Section 3 from and after such record date). 

(b) Determination of Current Market Price. The Current Market Price per share of Common Stock on any date shall bedeemed to be the Closing Price per share of Common Stock on the day immediately preceding the date of determination. If on any such date the shares of Common Stock are not listed or admitted for trading on any national securities exchange or quotedby NASDAQ or a similar service, then the Current Market Price shall be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company. 

(c) De Minimis Adjustments. No adjustment in the Purchase Price shall be made if the amount of such adjustment would result in a change in the Purchase Price per share of less than 5%, but in such case anyadjustment that would otherwise be required to be made shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time of and together with the next subsequent adjustment, which together with any adjustment so carried forward, would result in a change in thePurchase Price of 5% per share or more. 

(d) Adjustment of Number of Shares Issuable UponExercise. Upon each adjustment of the Purchase Price as a result of the calculations made in Subsection 3(a) this Warrant shall thereafter evidence the right to receive, at the adjusted Purchase Price, that number of shares of Common Stock(calculated to the nearest one-hundredth) obtained by dividing (x) the product of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock covered by this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment and the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior tosuch adjustment of the Purchase Price by (y) the Purchase Price in effect immediately after such adjustment of the Purchase Price. 

(e) Reorganization, Reclassification, Merger and Sale of Assets. If there occurs any capital reorganization or any reclassification of the Common Stock of the Company, the consolidation or merger of the Companywith or into another Person (other than a merger or consolidation of the Company in which the Company is the continuing corporation and which does not result in any reclassification or change of outstanding shares of its Common Stock) or the sale orconveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to another Person, then the Holder will thereafter be entitled to receive, upon the exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms hereof, the same kind and amounts ofsecurities (including shares of stock) or other assets, or both, which were issuable or distributable to the holders of outstanding Common Stock of the Company upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, inrespect of that number of shares of Common Stock then deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant if this Warrant had been 

 

4 

exercised immediately prior to such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance; and, in any such case, appropriateadjustments (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company) shall be made to assure that the provisions hereof (including provisions with respect to changes in, and other adjustments of, the Purchase Price) shall thereafter beapplicable, as nearly as reasonably may be practicable, in relation to any securities or other assets thereafter deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant. 

4. Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding an adjustment pursuant to Section 3(d) in the number of shares of Common Stock covered by this Warrant or any other provision of this Warrant,the Company shall not be required to issue fractions of shares upon exercise of this Warrant or to distribute certificates which evidence fractional shares. In lieu of fractional shares, the Company may make payment to the Holder, at the time ofexercise of this Warrant as herein provided, of an amount in cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the Current Market Price of a share of Common Stock on the Exercise Date. 

5. Replacement of Warrants. On receipt by the Company of an affidavit of an authorized representative of theHolder stating the circumstances of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant (and in the case of any such mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of such Warrant), the Company at its expense will promptly execute and deliver, inlieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor which shall be exercisable for a like number of shares of Common Stock. If required by the Company, such Holder must provide an indemnity bond or other indemnity sufficient in the judgment of the Company toprotect the Company from any loss which it may suffer if a lost, stolen or destroyed Warrant is replaced. 

6. Restrictions on Transfer.
