      STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT (SERIES A)

    


    To
      Purchase ___ Shares of Common Stock of

     

    MANAS
      PETROLEUM CORPORATION

     

    THIS
      COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT (the “Warrant”)
      certifies that, for value received, _____________ (the “Holder”),
      is
      entitled, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the
      conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after the date hereof (the
      “Exercise
      Date”)
      and on
      or prior to the close of business on the second anniversary of the Exercise
      Date
      (the “Termination
      Date”)
      but
      not thereafter, to subscribe for and purchase from Manas Petroleum Corporation,
      a Nevada corporation (the “Company”),
      in
      the aggregate, up to ___________ shares (the “Warrant
      Shares”)
      of
      Common Stock, $.001 par value per share, of the Company (the “Common
      Stock”).
      The
      purchase price of one share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be equal
      to
      the Exercise Price, as defined in Section 2(b). 

     

    Section
      1. Definitions.
      Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings
      set forth in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase
      Agreement”),
      dated
      ________ __, 200__, among the Company and the purchasers signatory
      thereto.

     

    Section
      2. Exercise.

     

    a) Exercise
      of Warrant.
      Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in
      whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the Exercise Date and on
      or
      before the Termination Date by delivery to the Company of a duly executed
      facsimile copy of the Notice of Exercise Form annexed hereto (or such other
      office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to
      the
      registered Holder at the address of such Holder appearing on the books of the
      Company); provided,
      however,
      within
      5 Trading Days of the date said Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company,
      if this Warrant is exercised in full, the Holder shall have surrendered this
      Warrant to the Company and the Company shall have received payment of the
      aggregate Exercise Price of the shares thereby purchased by wire transfer or
      cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank. Notwithstanding anything herein
      to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this
      Warrant to the Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares
      available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full. Partial
      exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total
      number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering
      the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount
      equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Holder and
      the
      Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased
      and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to
      any
      Notice of Exercise Form within 1 Business Day of receipt of such notice. In
      the
      event of any dispute or discrepancy, the records of the Holder shall be
      controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error. The Holder
      and
      any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by
      reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion
      of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for
      purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on
      the
      face hereof.

    b) Exercise
      Price.
      The
      exercise price of the Common Stock under this Warrant shall be $2.00, subject
      to
      adjustment hereunder (the “Exercise
      Price”).


    c) Mechanics
      of Exercise.
      

     

    i. Authorization
      of Warrant Shares.
      The
      Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise
      of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of the
      purchase rights represented by this Warrant, be duly authorized, validly issued,
      fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges in
      respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer
      occurring contemporaneously with such issue). 

     

    ii. Delivery
      of Certificates Upon Exercise.
      Certificates for shares purchased hereunder shall be transmitted by the transfer
      agent of the Company to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s
      prime broker with the Depository Trust Company through its Deposit Withdrawal
      Agent Commission (“DWAC”)
      system
      if the Company is a participant in such system, and otherwise by physical
      delivery to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise within
      3 Trading Days from the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise Form,
      surrender of this Warrant (if required) and payment of the aggregate Exercise
      Price as set forth above (“Warrant
      Share Delivery Date”).
      This
      Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised on the date the Exercise Price
      is
      received by the Company. The Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been issued,
      and Holder or any other person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed
      to have become a holder of record of such shares for all purposes, as of the
      date the Warrant has been exercised by payment to the Company of the Exercise
      Price and all taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to
      Section 2(e)(vii) prior to the issuance of such shares, have been paid.


     

    
      
         

      

      
        2

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    iii. Delivery
      of New Warrants Upon Exercise.
      If this
      Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request
      of
      a Holder and upon surrender of this Warrant certificate, at the time of delivery
      of the certificate or certificates representing Warrant Shares, deliver to
      Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of Holder to purchase the unpurchased
      Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other
      respects be identical with this Warrant.

     

    iv. Rescission
      Rights.
      If the
      Company fails to cause its transfer agent to transmit to the Holder a
      certificate or certificates representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to this
      Section 2(e)(iv) by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Holder will have
      the right to rescind such exercise.

     

    v. No
      Fractional Shares or Scrip.
      No
      fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon
      the exercise of this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which Holder would
      otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall pay
      a
      cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such
      fraction multiplied by the Exercise Price.

     

    vi. Charges,
      Taxes and Expenses.
      Issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to
      the
      Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect
      of
      the issuance of such certificate, all of which taxes and expenses shall be
      paid
      by the Company, and such certificates shall be issued in the name of the Holder
      or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; provided,
      however,
      that in
      the event certificates for Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other
      than
      the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be
      accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder;
      and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum
      sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.

     

    vii. Closing
      of Books.
      The
      Company will not close its stockholder books or records in any manner which
      prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms
      hereof.

    Section
      3. Certain Adjustments.

     

    a) Stock
      Dividends and Splits.
      If the
      Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (A) pays a stock
      dividend or otherwise make a distribution or distributions on shares of its
      Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in
      shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any
      shares of Common Stock issued by the Company pursuant to this Warrant), (B)
      subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares,
      (C) combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of
      Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (D) issues by reclassification
      of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then
      in each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which
      the
      numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury
      shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the
      denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
      immediately after such event and the number of shares issuable upon exercise
      of
      this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted. Any adjustment made pursuant
      to
      this Section 3(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date
      for
      the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or
      distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date
      in
      the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.


    b) Subsequent
      Equity Sales.
      If the
      Company or any Subsidiary thereof, as applicable, at any time while this Warrant
      is outstanding, shall offer, sell, grant any option to purchase or offer, sell
      or grant any right to reprice its securities, or otherwise dispose of or issue
      (or announce any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other
      disposition) any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents entitling any Person
      to acquire shares of Common Stock, at an effective price per share less than
      the
      then Exercise Price (such lower price, the “Base
      Share Price”
and
      such issuances collectively, a “Dilutive
      Issuance”),
      as
      adjusted hereunder (if the holder of the Common Stock or Common Stock
      Equivalents so issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase price
      adjustments, reset provisions, floating conversion, exercise or exchange prices
      or otherwise, or due to warrants, options or rights per share which is issued
      in
      connection with such issuance, be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock
      at
      an effective price per share which is less than the Exercise Price, such
      issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Exercise Price
      on
      such date of the Dilutive Issuance), then the Exercise Price shall be reduced
      and only reduced to equal the Base Share Price and the number of Warrant Shares
      issuable hereunder shall be increased such that the aggregate Exercise Price
      payable hereunder, after taking into account the decrease in the Exercise Price,
      shall be equal to the aggregate Exercise Price prior to such adjustment. Such
      adjustment shall be made whenever such Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents
      are issued. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustments shall be made, paid
      or
      issued under this Section 3(b) in respect of an Exempt Issuance. The Company
      shall notify the Holder in writing, no later than the Trading Day following
      the
      issuance of any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents subject to this
      section, indicating therein the applicable issuance price, or of applicable
      reset price, exchange price, conversion price and other pricing terms (such
      notice the “Dilutive
      Issuance Notice”).
      For
      purposes of clarification, whether or not the Company provides a Dilutive
      Issuance Notice pursuant to this Section 3(b), upon the occurrence of any
      Dilutive Issuance, after the date of such Dilutive Issuance the Holder is
      entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares based upon the Base Share Price
      regardless of whether the Holder accurately refers to the Base Share Price
      in
      the Notice of Exercise. 

     

    
      
         

      

      
        4

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    c) Pro
      Rata Distributions.
      If the
      Company, at any time prior to the Termination Date, shall distribute to all
      holders of Common Stock (and not to Holders of the Warrants) evidences of its
      indebtedness or assets (including cash and cash dividends) or rights or warrants
      to subscribe for or purchase any security other than the Common Stock (which
      shall be subject to Section 3(b)), then in each such case the Exercise Price
      shall be adjusted by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior
      to the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive
      such distribution by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the VWAP
      determined as of the record date mentioned above, and of which the numerator
      shall be such VWAP on such record date less the then per share fair market
      value
      at such record date of the portion of such assets or evidence of indebtedness
      so
      distributed applicable to one outstanding share of the Common Stock as
      determined by the Board of Directors in good faith. In either case the
      adjustments shall be described in a statement provided to the Holder of the
      portion of assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed or such
      subscription rights applicable to one share of Common Stock. Such adjustment
      shall be made whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective
      immediately after the record date mentioned above.

     

    d) Fundamental
      Transaction.
      If, at
      any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (A) the Company effects any merger
      or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (B) the Company
      effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series
      of
      related transactions, (C) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the
      Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common
      Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities,
      cash or property, or (D) the Company effects any reclassification of the Common
      Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is
      effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property
      (in any such case, a “Fundamental
      Transaction”),
      then,
      upon any subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right
      to
      receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise
      immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the
      option of the Holder, (a) upon exercise of this Warrant, the number of shares
      of
      Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if
      it
      is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the
“Alternate
      Consideration”)
      receivable upon or as a result of such reorganization, reclassification, merger,
      consolidation or disposition of assets by a Holder of the number of shares
      of
      Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such
      event or (b) if the Company is acquired in an all cash transaction, cash equal
      to the value of this Warrant as determined in accordance with the Black-Scholes
      option pricing formula. For purposes of any such exercise, the determination
      of
      the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate
      Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect
      of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company
      shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in a
      reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components
      of
      the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice
      as
      to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction,
      then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration
      it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental
      Transaction. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions,
      any
      successor to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction
      shall issue to the Holder a new warrant consistent with the foregoing provisions
      and evidencing the Holder’s right to exercise such warrant into Alternate
      Consideration. The terms of any agreement pursuant to which a Fundamental
      Transaction is effected shall include terms requiring any such successor or
      surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this Section 3(d) and insuring
      that this Warrant (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted
      upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental
      Transaction.

    e) Calculations.
      All
      calculations under this Section 3 shall be made to the nearest cent or the
      nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section
      3,
      the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as
      of a
      given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding
      treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.

     

    f) Voluntary
      Adjustment By Company.
      The
      Company may at any time during the term of this Warrant reduce the then current
      Exercise Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate
      by
      the Board of Directors of the Company.

     

    g) Notice
      to Holders.
      

     

    i. Adjustment
      to Exercise Price.
      Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to this Section 3, the Company
      shall promptly mail to each Holder a notice setting forth the Exercise Price
      after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring
      such adjustment. If the Company issues a variable rate security, despite the
      prohibition thereon in the Purchase Agreement, the Company shall be deemed
      to
      have issued Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents at the lowest possible
      conversion or exercise price at which such securities may be converted or
      exercised in the case of a Variable Rate Transaction (as defined in the Purchase
      Agreement).

     

    ii. Notice
      to Allow Exercise by Holder.
      If (A)
      the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution) on the Common
      Stock; (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on
      or
      a redemption of the Common Stock; (C) the Company shall authorize the granting
      to all holders of the Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or
      purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights; (D) the
      approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection
      with
      any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which
      the Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of
      the
      assets of the Company, of any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common
      Stock
      is converted into other securities, cash or property; (E) the Company shall
      authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding
      up of
      the affairs of the Company; then, in each case, the Company shall cause to
      be
      mailed to the Holder at its last address as it shall appear upon the Warrant
      Register of the Company, at least 20 calendar days prior to the applicable
      record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date
      on
      which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution,
      redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date
      as
      of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such
      dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined
      or
      (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale,
      transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the
      date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record
      shall
      be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash
      or
      other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger,
      sale, transfer or share exchange; provided that the failure to mail such notice
      or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall not affect the validity
      of
      the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. The Holder is
      entitled to exercise this Warrant during the 20-day period commencing on the
      date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such
      notice.

    Section
      4. Transfer
      of Warrant.

     

    a) Transferability.
      Subject
      to compliance with any applicable securities laws and the conditions set forth
      in Sections 5(a) and 4(d) hereof and to the provisions of Section 4.1 of the
      Purchase Agreement, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable,
      in
      whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of
      the
      Company, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in
      the
      form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney and
      funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such
      transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall
      execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or
      assignees and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument
      of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the
      portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be
      cancelled. A Warrant, if properly assigned, may be exercised by a new holder
      for
      the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued.


     

    b) New
      Warrants.
      This
      Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof
      at the aforesaid office of the Company, together with a written notice
      specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued,
      signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with
      Section 4(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or

      in
      exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance
      with such notice.

    c) Warrant
      Register.
      The
      Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the
      Company for that purpose (the “Warrant
      Register”),
      in
      the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may deem
      and
      treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for
      the
      purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all
      other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.

     

    d) Transfer
      Restrictions.
      If,
      at the
time
      of
      the surrender of this Warrant in connection with any transfer of this Warrant,
      the transfer of this Warrant shall not be registered pursuant to an effective
      registration
      statement under the Securities Act
      and
under
      applicable state securities or blue sky laws, the Company may require, as a
      condition of allowing such transfer (i) that the Holder or transferee of this
      Warrant, as the case may be, furnish to the Company a written opinion of counsel
      (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions
      of
      counsel in comparable transactions) to the effect that such transfer may be
      made
      without
      registration under
      the
      Securities Act and under applicable state securities or blue sky laws, (ii)
      that
      the holder or transferee execute and deliver to the Company an investment letter
      in form and substance acceptable to the Company and (iii) that the transferee
      be
      an “accredited
      investor” as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (a)(2), (a)(3), (a)(7), or (a)(8)
      promulgated under the Securities Act or a qualified institutional buyer as
      defined in Rule 144A(a) under the Securities Act.

     

    Section
      5. Miscellaneous.

     

    a) Title
      to Warrant.
      Prior
      to the Termination Date and subject to compliance with applicable laws and
      Section 4 of this Warrant, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are
      transferable, in whole or in part, at the office or agency of the Company by
      the
      Holder in person or by duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant
      together with the Assignment Form annexed hereto properly endorsed. The
      transferee shall sign an investment letter in form and substance reasonably
      satisfactory to the Company.

     

    b) No
      Rights as Shareholder Until Exercise.
      This
      Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights or other rights as
      a
      shareholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof. Upon the surrender
      of
      this Warrant and the payment of the aggregate Exercise Price, the Warrant Shares
      so purchased shall be and be deemed to be issued to such Holder as the record
      owner of such shares as of the close of business on the later of the date of
      such surrender or payment.

     

    c) Loss,
      Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant.
      The
      Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably
      satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant
      or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss,
      theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it
      (which, in the case of the Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond),
      and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if
      mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate
      of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or
      stock certificate.

     

    
      
         

      

      
        8

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    d) Saturdays,
      Sundays, Holidays, etc.
      If the
      last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any
      right required or granted herein shall be a Saturday, Sunday or a legal holiday,
      then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next
      succeeding day not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday.


    e) Authorized
      Shares.
      

     

    The
      Company covenants that during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will
      reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of
      shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise
      of
      any purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company further covenants that
      its
      issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who
      are
      charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue
      the
      necessary certificates for the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase
      rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable action
      as
      may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided
      herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any
      requirements of the Trading Market upon which the Common Stock may be listed.
      

     

    Except
      and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall
      not
      by any action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate of
      incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation,
      merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action,
      avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of
      this
      Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of
      all
      such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or
      appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against
      impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will
      (a) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable
      therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value,
      (b)
      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 this Warrant, and (c) use commercially reasonable
      efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any
      public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be necessary to enable
      the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.

     

    Before
      taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant
      Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the Exercise Price, the
      Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents
      thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having
      jurisdiction thereof.

     

    
      
         

      

      
        9

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    f) Jurisdiction.
      All
      questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation
      of this Warrant shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of the
      Purchase Agreement.

     

    g) Restrictions.
      The
      Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this
      Warrant, if not registered, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state
      and federal securities laws.

     

    h) Nonwaiver
      and Expenses.
      No
      course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on
      the
      part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice
      Holder’s rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding the fact that all rights
      hereunder terminate on the Termination Date. If the Company willfully and
      knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results
      in
      any material damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to Holder such amounts
      as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not
      limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate
      proceedings, incurred by Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto
      or
      in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies
      hereunder.

     

    i) Notices.
      Any
      notice, request or other document required or permitted to be given or delivered
      to the Holder by the Company shall be delivered in accordance with the notice
      provisions of the Purchase Agreement.

     

    j) Limitation
      of Liability.
      No
      provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by Holder to exercise
      this Warrant or purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights
      or privileges of Holder, shall give rise to any liability of Holder for the
      purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether
      such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the
      Company.

     

    k) Remedies.
      Holder,
      in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including
      recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights
      under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be
      adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of
      the
      provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive the defense in any action
      for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.

     

    l) Successors
      and Assigns.
      Subject
      to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations
      evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the
      successors of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder.
      The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of all Holders
      from time to time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by any such Holder
      or
      holder of Warrant Shares.


    m) Amendment.
      This
      Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the
      written consent of the Company and the Holder.

     

    
      
         

      

      
        10

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    n) Severability.
      Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such
      manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision
      of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such
      provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity,
      without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining
      provisions of this Warrant.

     

    o) Headings.
      The
      headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and
      shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant.
