     4. Reservation of Shares. The Company hereby agrees that at all times there shall be reserved

shares of Common Stock of the Company from time to time issuable upon exercise of this Warrant as
will be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of this Warrant. All such shares shall be

2

 

duly authorized and, when issued upon such exercise, shall be validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable, free and clear of all liens, security interests, charges and other encumbrances or
restrictions on sale and free and clear of all preemptive rights, in each case except restrictions
on transfer contemplated by paragraph 3, to the extent created by the Holder.

     5. Fractional Shares. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be
issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, and in lieu of delivery of any such fractional share to
which the Holder may be entitled upon any exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall pay to the

such Warrant Assignment Form and, if the Holder’s entire interest is not being assigned, in

     7. Restrictions on Transfer. The Holder, by acceptance hereof, agrees that, absent an
effective registration statement filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission
under the 1933 Act, covering the disposition or sale of this Warrant or the Warrant Shares issued
or issuable upon exercise hereof, as the case may be, and registration or qualification under
applicable state securities laws, such Holder will not sell, transfer, pledge, or hypothecate any
or all such Warrants or Warrant Shares, as the case may be, unless either (i) the Company has
received an opinion of counsel, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to
the effect that such registration is not required in connection with such disposition or (ii) the
sale of such securities is made pursuant to Rule 144 under the 1933 Act.

3

 

     8. Loss or Destruction of Warrant. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence satisfactory to it
(in the exercise of its reasonable discretion) of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of
this Warrant, and (in the case of loss, theft or destruction) of reasonably satisfactory
indemnification, and upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, if mutilated, the Company
shall execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor and date.

     9. Anti-dilution Provisions.

     (a) Common Stock Dividends, Subdivisions or Combinations. If the Company shall at any
time after the date hereof (A) declare and pay a dividend or make a distribution on Common
Stock payable in Common Stock, (B) subdivide or split the outstanding shares of Common Stock
into a greater number of shares or (C) combine or reclassify the outstanding shares of
Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then in each such case:

     (i) the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant
thereafter shall be proportionately adjusted so that the exercise of this
Warrant after such event shall entitle the Holder to receive the aggregate
number of shares of Common Stock that such Holder would have been entitled to
receive had such Holder exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such event;
and

     (ii) the Exercise Price thereafter shall be adjusted to equal the product
of the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such event multiplied by a
fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be the number of Warrant Shares
issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such event and
(B) the denominator of which shall be the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon
the exercise of this Warrant immediately following such event.

     Any adjustment made pursuant to this paragraph 9(a) shall become effective immediately after
the applicable record date in the case of a dividend or distribution and immediately after the
applicable effective date in the case of a subdivision, split, combination or reclassification.

     (b) Certain Distributions. If the Company shall fix a record date for the making of a
distribution to holders of Common Stock of shares of securities, evidences of indebtedness,
assets, cash, rights or warrants (other than dividends of shares of Common Stock for which
an adjustment is made pursuant to paragraph 9(a)), then in each such case:

     (i) the Exercise Price thereafter shall be adjusted to equal the product of
the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior

4

 

to the record date multiplied by a fraction (A) the numerator of which
shall be the current fair market value per share as of such record date, as
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, less the amount of cash
and/or the portion of the fair market value of the securities, evidences of
indebtedness, assets, rights or warrants to be so distributed with respect to
one share of Common Stock and (B) the denominator of which shall be such current
fair market value per share; and.

     (ii) the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant
thereafter shall be adjusted to equal the product of the number of Warrant
Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such record
date multiplied by a fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be the Exercise
Price in effect immediately prior to such record date and (B) the denominator of
which shall be the Exercise Price in effect immediately following such record
date.

     Any adjustment made pursuant to this paragraph 9(b) shall become effective immediately after
the applicable record date. In the event that such distribution is not so made, the Exercise Price
and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall again be adjusted to
be the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant that
would be in effect if such record date had not been so fixed.

     (c) Consolidation, Merger or Sale of Assets. In the event of any consolidation of the
Company with, or merger of the Company into, any other Person, any merger of another Person
into the Company (other than a merger which does not result in any reclassification,
conversion, exchange or cancellation of outstanding shares of Common Stock) or any sale or
transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to the Person formed by
such consolidation or resulting from such merger or to the Person that acquires such assets
pursuant to any such sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Company, as the case may be, the Holder shall have the right thereafter to exercise this
Warrant for the kind and amount of securities, cash and/or other property receivable upon
such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer by a holder of the number of shares of Common
Stock for which this Warrant may have been exercised immediately prior to such
consolidation, merger, sale or transfer. In determining the kind and amount of securities,
cash and/or other property receivable upon such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer, if
the holders of Common Stock have the right to elect as to the consideration to be received
upon the consummation of such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer, then the
consideration that the Holder shall be entitled to receive upon exercise shall be deemed to
be the kind and amount of consideration received by the majority of all holders of Common
Stock that affirmatively make an election (or of all such holders if none make an election).

5

 

Adjustments for events subsequent to the effective date of such a consolidation,
merger, sale or transfer of assets shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to
the adjustments provided for in this Warrant. In any such event, effective provisions shall
be made in the certificate or articles of incorporation of the resulting or surviving
corporation, in any contract of sale, merger, conveyance, lease, transfer or otherwise so
that the provisions set forth herein for the protection of the rights of the Holder shall
thereafter continue to be applicable; and any such resulting or surviving corporation shall
expressly assume the obligation to deliver, upon exercise, such shares of stock, other
securities, cash and property.

     (d) Certain Determinations. For purposes of any computation of any adjustment required
under this paragraph 9:

     (i) adjustments shall be made successively whenever any event giving rise
to such an adjustment shall occur;

     (ii) if any portion of any consideration to be received by the Company in a
transaction giving rise to such an adjustment shall be in a form other than
cash, the fair market value of such non-cash consideration shall be utilized in
such computation. Such fair market value shall be determined in good faith by
the Board of Directors; provided that if the Holder shall object to any such
determination, the Board of Directors shall retain an independent appraiser
reasonably satisfactory to the Holder to determine such fair market value. The
expense of such independent appraiser shall be shared equally by the Company and
the Holder. The Holder shall be notified promptly of any consideration other
than cash to be received by the Company and furnished with a description of the
consideration and the fair market value thereof, as determined in accordance
with the foregoing provisions;

     (iii) such calculations shall be made to the nearest one-tenth of a cent or
to the nearest hundredth of a share, as the case may be; and

     (iv) no adjustment in the Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares
issuable upon exercise of the Warrant, as the case may be, shall be required if
the amount of such adjustment would be less than one-tenth of a cent or
hundredth of a share, as the case may be.

     (e) Certificates as to Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment to the
Exercise Price and/or the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant,
the Company shall promptly compute such adjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and
furnish

6

 

to the Holder a certificate setting forth such adjustment and showing in reasonable
detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based.

     (f) Notices. In the event that the Company shall propose at any time to effect any of
the events described in paragraphs (a) through (c) above that would result in an adjustment
to the Exercise Price, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant
or a change in the type of securities or property to be delivered upon exercise of this
Warrant, the Company shall send notice to the Holder in the manner
set forth in paragraph 11. In the case of a dividend or other distribution, such notice shall be sent at least 5
days prior to the applicable record date and shall specify such record date and the date on
which such dividend or other distribution is to be made. In any other case, such notice
shall be sent at least 5 days prior to the effective date of any such event and shall
specify such effective date. In all cases, such notice shall specify such event in
reasonable detail, including the effect on the Exercise Price and the number, kind or class
of securities or other property issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.

     10. Notices. Any notice, demand or delivery authorized by this Warrant shall be in writing
and shall be given to the Holder or the Company, as the case may be, at its address (or facsimile
number) set forth below, or such other address (or facsimile number) as shall have been furnished

     (a) Common Stock Dividends, Subdivisions or Combinations. If the Company shall at any
time after the date hereof (A) declare and pay a dividend or make a distribution on Common
Stock payable in Common Stock, (B) subdivide or split the outstanding shares of Common Stock
into a greater number of shares or (C) combine or reclassify the outstanding shares of
Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then in each such case:

     (i) the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant
thereafter shall be proportionately adjusted so that the exercise of this
Warrant after such event shall entitle the Holder to receive the aggregate
number of shares of Common Stock that such Holder would have been entitled to
receive had such Holder exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such event;
and

     (ii) the Exercise Price thereafter shall be adjusted to equal the product
of the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such event multiplied by a
fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be the number of Warrant Shares
issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such event and
(B) the denominator of which shall be the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon
the exercise of this Warrant immediately following such event.

     Any adjustment made pursuant to this paragraph 9(a) shall become effective immediately after
the applicable record date in the case of a dividend or distribution and immediately after the
applicable effective date in the case of a subdivision, split, combination or reclassification.

     (b) Certain Distributions. If the Company shall fix a record date for the making of a
distribution to holders of Common Stock of shares of securities, evidences of indebtedness,
assets, cash, rights or warrants

4

 

(other than dividends of shares of Common Stock for which an adjustment is made
pursuant to paragraph 9(a)), then in each such case:

     (i) the Exercise Price thereafter shall be adjusted to equal the product of
the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the record date multiplied by
a fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be the current fair market value per
share as of such record date, as determined in good faith by the Board of
Directors, less the amount of cash and/or the portion of the fair market value
of the securities, evidences of indebtedness, assets, rights or warrants to be
so distributed with respect to one share of Common Stock and (B) the denominator
of which shall be such current fair market value per share; and.

     (ii) the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant
thereafter shall be adjusted to equal the product of the number of Warrant
Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such record
date multiplied by a fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be the Exercise
Price in effect immediately prior to such record date and (B) the denominator of
which shall be the Exercise Price in effect immediately following such record
date.

     Any adjustment made pursuant to this paragraph 9(b) shall become effective immediately after
the applicable record date. In the event that such distribution is not so made, the Exercise Price
and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall again be adjusted to
be the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant that
would be in effect if such record date had not been so fixed.

     (c) Consolidation, Merger or Sale of Assets. In the event of any consolidation of the
Company with, or merger of the Company into, any other Person, any merger of another Person
into the Company (other than a merger which does not result in any reclassification,
conversion, exchange or cancellation of outstanding shares of Common Stock) or any sale or
transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to the Person formed by
such consolidation or resulting from such merger or to the Person that acquires such assets
pursuant to any such sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Company, as the case may be, the Holder shall have the right thereafter to exercise this
Warrant for the kind and amount of securities, cash and/or other property receivable upon
such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer by a holder of the number of shares of Common
Stock for which this Warrant may have been exercised immediately prior to such
consolidation, merger, sale or transfer. In determining the kind and amount of securities,
cash and/or other property receivable upon such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer, if
the holders of Common Stock have the right to elect as to the consideration to be

5

 

received upon the consummation of such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer, then
the consideration that the Holder shall be entitled to receive upon exercise shall be deemed
to be the kind and amount of consideration received by the majority of all holders of Common
Stock that affirmatively make an election (or of all such holders if none make an election).
Adjustments for events subsequent to the effective date of such a consolidation, merger,
sale or transfer of assets shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the
adjustments provided for in this Warrant. In any such event, effective provisions shall be
made in the certificate or articles of incorporation of the resulting or surviving
corporation, in any contract of sale, merger, conveyance, lease, transfer or otherwise so
that the provisions set forth herein for the protection of the rights of the Holder shall
thereafter continue to be applicable; and any such resulting or surviving corporation shall
expressly assume the obligation to deliver, upon exercise, such shares of stock, other
securities, cash and property.

     (d) Certain Determinations. For purposes of any computation of any adjustment required
under this paragraph 9:

     (i) adjustments shall be made successively whenever any event giving rise
to such an adjustment shall occur;

     (ii) if any portion of any consideration to be received by the Company in a
transaction giving rise to such an adjustment shall be in a form other than
cash, the fair market value of such non-cash consideration shall be utilized in
such computation. Such fair market value shall be determined in good faith by
the Board of Directors; provided that if the Holder shall object to any such
determination, the Board of Directors shall retain an independent appraiser
reasonably satisfactory to the Holder to determine such fair market value. The
expense of such independent appraiser shall be shared equally by the Company and
the Holder. The Holder shall be notified promptly of any consideration other
than cash to be received by the Company and furnished with a description of the
consideration and the fair market value thereof, as determined in accordance
with the foregoing provisions;

     (iii) such calculations shall be made to the nearest one-tenth of a cent or
to the nearest hundredth of a share, as the case may be; and

     (iv) no adjustment in the Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares
issuable upon exercise of the Warrant, as the case may be, shall be required if
the amount of such adjustment would be less than one-tenth of a cent or
hundredth of a share, as the case may be.

6

 

     (e) Certificates as to Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment to the
Exercise Price and/or the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant,
the Company shall promptly compute such adjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and
furnish to the Holder a certificate setting forth such adjustment and showing in reasonable
detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based.

     (f) Notices. In the event that the Company shall propose at any time to effect any of
the events described in paragraphs (a) through (c) above that would result in an
adjustment to the Exercise Price, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant or a change in the type of securities or property to be delivered upon exercise
of this Warrant, the Company shall send notice to the Holder in the manner set forth in
paragraph 10. In the case of a dividend or other distribution, such notice shall be sent
at least 5 days prior to the applicable record date and shall specify such record date and
the date on which such dividend or other distribution is to be made. In any other case,
such notice shall be sent at least 5 days prior to the effective date of any such event and
shall specify such effective date. In all cases, such notice shall specify such event in
reasonable detail, including the effect on the Exercise Price and the number, kind or class
of securities or other property issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.
