(c) Issuance of Stock Certificates. In the event of any exercise of this Warrant in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, certificates for the shares of Warrant Stock so purchased shall be dated the date of such exercise and delivered to the Holder hereof within a reasonable time, not exceeding three (3) business days after such exercise (the “Delivery Date”). The Holder shall deliver this original Warrant to the Issuer, or an indemnification undertaking with respect to such Warrant in the case of its loss, theft, or destruction, at such time that this Warrant is fully exercised. With respect to partial exercises of this Warrant, the Issuer shall keep written records for the Holder of the number of shares of Warrant Stock exercised as of each date of exercise and shall deliver a replacement warrant on identical terms as this Warrant for the balance of Warrant Stock that has not been previously exercised by the Holder.

(f) Compliance with Securities Laws.
 
(i) The Holder of this Warrant, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges that this Warrant and the shares of Warrant Stock to be issued upon exercise hereof are being acquired solely for the Holder’s own account and not as a nominee for any other party, and for investment, and that the Holder will not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of this Warrant or any shares of Warrant Stock to be issued upon exercise hereof except pursuant to an effective registration statement, or an exemption from registration, under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws.

	THIS WARRANT AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE HEREOF HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”) OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF UNLESS REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR THE ISSUER SHALL HAVE RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER THAT REGISTRATION OF SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS IS NOT REQUIRED.
	 



 
(iii) The Issuer agrees to reissue this Warrant or certificates representing any of the Warrant Stock, without the legend set forth above if at such time, prior to making any transfer of any such securities, the Holder shall give written notice to the Issuer describing the manner and terms of such transfer. Such proposed transfer will not be effected until: (a) either (i) the Issuer has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer, to the effect that the registration of such securities under the Securities Act is not required in connection with such proposed transfer, (ii) the Issuer has received other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer that such registration and qualification under the Securities Act and state securities laws are not required, or (iii) the Holder provides the Issuer with reasonable assurances that such security can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act; and (b) either (i) the Issuer has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer, to the effect that registration or qualification under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any state is not required in connection with such proposed disposition, or (ii) compliance with applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws has been effected or a valid exemption exists with respect thereto. In the case of any proposed transfer under this Section 2(f), the Issuer will use reasonable efforts to comply with any such applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws, but shall in no event be required, (x) to qualify to do business in any state where it is not then qualified, (y) to take any action that would subject it to tax or to the general service of process in any state where it is not then subject, or (z) to comply with state securities or “blue sky” laws of any state for which registration by coordination is unavailable to the Issuer. The restrictions on transfer contained in this Section 2(f) shall be in addition to, and not by way of limitation of, any other restrictions on transfer contained in any other section of this Warrant.

The Issuer further covenants and agrees that during the period within which this Warrant may be exercised, the Issuer will at all times have authorized and reserved for the purpose of the issuance upon exercise of this Warrant a number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock equal to at least one hundred percent (100%) of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant without regard to any limitations on exercise.
 
(b) Reservation. If any shares of Common Stock required to be reserved for issuance upon exercise of this Warrant or as otherwise provided hereunder require registration or qualification with any Governmental Authority under any federal or state law before such shares may be so issued, the Issuer will in good faith use its best efforts as expeditiously as possible at its expense to cause such shares to be duly registered or qualified. 
 
(c) Loss, Theft, Destruction of Warrants. Upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Issuer of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt of indemnity or security satisfactory to the Issuer or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant, the Issuer will make and deliver, in lieu of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant, a new Warrant of like tenor and representing the right to purchase the same number of shares of Common Stock.
 
(d) Payment of Taxes. The Issuer will pay any documentary stamp taxes attributable to the initial issuance of the Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant; provided, however, that the holder shall be required to pay any tax or taxes which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of any certificates representing Warrant Stock in a name other than that of the Holder in respect to which such shares are issued.
 
4. Adjustment of Warrant Price and Number of Shares Issuable Upon Exercise. The Warrant Price and the number of shares of Warrant Stock that may be purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 4.

(a) Adjustment Due to Dividends, Stock Splits, Etc. If, at any time on or after the Original Issuance Date, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is increased by a (i) dividend payable in any kind of shares of capital stock of the Corporation, (ii) stock split, (iii) combination, (iv) reclassification or (v) other similar event, the Warrant Price shall be proportionately reduced by multiplication by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately after such event, or if the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is decreased by a reverse stock split, combination or reclassification of shares, or other similar event, the Warrant Price shall be proportionately increased by multiplication by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately after such event. In such event, the Issuer shall notify the Corporation's Transfer Agent of such change on or before the effective date thereof.
 
(b) Adjustment Due to Merger, Consolidation, Etc. If, at any time after the Original Issuance Date, there shall be (i) any reclassification or change of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, (ii) any consolidation or merger of the Corporation with any other entity (other than a merger in which the Corporation is the surviving or continuing entity and its capital stock is unchanged), (iii) any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation, (iv) any share exchange or tender offer pursuant to which all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock are effectively converted into other securities or property; or (v) any distribution of the Corporation’s assets to holders of the Common Stock as a liquidation or partial liquidation dividend or by way of return of capital (each of (i) - (v) above being a “Corporate Change”), then the Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant, the same amount and kind of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Corporate Change if it had been, immediately prior to such Corporate Change, the holder of the number of shares of Warrant Stock then issuable upon exercise in full of this Warrant, and in any such case, appropriate provisions (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder) shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder to the end that the economic value of the Warrant Stock is in no way diminished by such Corporate Change and that the provisions hereof including, without limitation, in the case of any such consolidation, merger or sale in which the successor entity or purchasing entity is not the Issuer, an immediate adjustment of the Warrant Price so that the Warrant Price immediately after the Corporate Change reflects the same relative value as compared to the value of the surviving entity’s common stock that existed immediately prior to such Corporate Change and the value of the Common Stock immediately prior to such Corporate Change. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Corporate Change, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Corporate Change.
 
(c) Other Adjustments. If the Issuer takes any action affecting the Common Stock after the date hereof that would be covered by this Section 4, but for the manner in which such action is taken or structured, and such action would in any way diminish the value of the Warrant or Warrant Stock, then the Warrant Price shall be adjusted in such manner as the Board shall in good faith determine to be equitable under the circumstances.
