Warrant Shares into which the Warrant is convertible will bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of the certificates for such securities): 
  
 “The securities represented by this certificate have not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or under the securities laws of any other jurisdiction. These securities have been acquired for investment and not with a view to, or in connection with, the
distribution thereof. The securities may not be offered, sold, pledged, transferred or assigned in the absence of an effective registration statement for the securities under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, unless sold
pursuant to an exemption under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.”

and Warrant Shares is effective under the Securities Act, (ii) following any sale of such Shares and Warrant Shares pursuant to Rule 144, or (iii) if such Shares and Warrant Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144(k). Following the effective
date of the Registration Statement or at such earlier time as a legend is no longer required for certain Shares or Warrant Shares, the Company will use commercially reasonable

representing such securities, deliver or cause to be delivered to such Purchaser a certificate representing such securities that is free from all restrictive and other legends.

affiliate (as such term is defined pursuant to Rule 12b-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of any other Purchaser; (b) is not constituted as a partnership, association, joint venture or any other type of joint entity with any other Purchaser; and
(c) is in no way acting as a group (as such term is defined under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) with any other Purchaser. If at any time after the Closing Date such Purchaser becomes an affiliate (as defined herein) of any other Purchaser, such
Purchaser will provide prompt written notice to the Company.

contemplated by this Agreement based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of such Purchaser, except as may be paid to Vertical Ventures, LLC by the Company.

the Purchasers shall be subject to the receipt by the Company of reasonable assurances from the Purchasers that the Purchasers will comply with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and of such other securities laws as may be applicable in
connection with any use of such prospectuses; 
  
 (5) use commercially reasonable efforts to file documents required of the Company for normal Blue Sky clearance in states specified in writing by the Purchasers; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to
qualify to do business or consent to service of process in any jurisdiction in which the Company is not now so qualified or has not so consented; and 
  
 (6) bear all expenses in connection with the procedures in paragraphs (a) through (c) of this Section 6.1 and the registration of the

Each Purchaser will promptly notify the Company of any changes in the information set forth in the Registration Statement or Prospectus regarding the Purchaser or its plan of distribution. 
  
 6.2 Restrictions on Transferability.

disposition of the Shares that would constitute a sale within the meaning of the Securities Act or pursuant to any applicable state securities or Blue Sky laws, except as contemplated in the Registration Statement referred to in Section 6.1 or
pursuant to a written opinion of legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company and addressed to the Company to the effect that registration is not

required in connection with the proposed transfer; whereupon the holder of such securities shall be entitled to transfer such securities in accordance with
the terms of the notice delivered by the holder to the Company. Each certificate evidencing the securities transferred as above provided shall bear the appropriate restrictive legends set forth in Section 5.10. 
  
 (b) Each Purchaser acknowledges that there may occasionally
be times when the Company must suspend the use of the prospectus forming a part of the Registration Statement until such time as an amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement has been filed by the Company and declared effective, or until
such time as the Company has filed an appropriate report with the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act. Each Purchaser hereby covenants that such Purchaser will not sell any Shares pursuant to said prospectus during the period commencing at the time at
which the Company gives the Purchasers written notice of the suspension of the use of said prospectus and ending at the time the Company gives the Purchasers written notice that the Purchasers may thereafter effect sales pursuant to said prospectus.

  
 (c) None of the Shares shall be transferable
except upon the conditions specified in this Article 6, which are intended to ensure compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act. Each Purchaser will cause any proposed transferee of the Shares held by such Purchaser to agree to take and
hold such Shares subject to the provisions and upon the conditions specified in this Article 6 if and to the extent that such Shares continue to be restricted securities in the hands of the transferee. 
  
 6.3 Termination of Conditions and Obligations. The conditions
precedent imposed by Section 6.2 above regarding the transferability of the Shares shall cease and terminate as to any particular number of the Shares upon the date on which the Purchaser may sell without volume limitations all such Shares then held
by the Purchaser without registration by reason of Rule 144 or any other rule of similar effect.

 7.4 Limitations for Indemnification. In no event shall the Company be
required to indemnify any Purchaser, and its Purchaser Indemnified Parties, hereunder in excess of an amount equal to the aggregate Purchase Price paid by such Purchaser to the Company on the Closing Date. In no event shall any Purchaser be required
to indemnify the Company, and its Company Indemnified Parties, hereunder in excess of an amount equal to the aggregate Purchase Price paid by such Purchaser to the Company on the Closing Date. 
  
 7.5 Procedures for Indemnification. An indemnified party hereunder
shall notify the indemnifying party, in writing, of any claim for indemnification, specifying in reasonable detail the nature of the Claims and Losses and, if known, the amount or an estimate of the amount of the Claims and Losses. In the event of a
claim by any third party, or if there is any claim against a third party available by virtue of the circumstances of the Claims and Losses, the indemnifying party may assume the defense or the prosecution thereof by prompt written notice to
indemnified party including the employment of counsel or accountants, at its cost and expense; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and such parties shall have
reasonable concluded that there may be a conflict between the positions of such parties in conducting the defense of any such action, the indemnified party shall have the right to select separate legal counsel to assume such defense and otherwise
participate in such action at the indemnifying party’s expense. The indemnified party shall have the right to employ counsel separate from counsel employed by the indemnifying party in any such action and to participate therein, but the fees
and expenses of such counsel employed by the indemnified party shall be at its expense. The indemnifying party shall not be 

  

 13 

 
liable for any settlement of any such Claims and Losses effected without its prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided that
if the indemnifying party does not assume the defense or prosecution of a third-party claim as provided above within thirty (30) Days after notice thereof from the indemnified party, the indemnified party may settle such claim without the
indemnifying party’s consent. The indemnifying party shall not agree to a settlement of any Claims and Losses which provides for any relief other than the payment of monetary damages or which could have a material precedential impact or effect
on the business or financial condition of the indemnified party without the indemnified party’s prior written consent. Whether or not the indemnifying party chooses to so defend or prosecute such claim, both parties shall cooperate in the
defense or prosecution thereof and shall furnish such records, information and testimony, and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals, as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith.

FORM OF WARRANT 
  
 NEITHER THIS WARRANT NOR THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE HEREOF HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY APPLICABLE
STATE SECURITIES LAW AND NEITHER MAY BE SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED UNTIL (i) A REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SUCH SECURITIES ACT AND SUCH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS SHALL HAVE BECOME EFFECTIVE WITH REGARD THERETO, OR (ii) THE COMPANY SHALL
HAVE RECEIVED A WRITTEN OPINION OF COUNSEL ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY TO THE EFFECT THAT REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH SECURITIES ACT AND SUCH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS IS NOT REQUIRED IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH PROPOSED TRANSFER. ANY TRANSFER OF THIS
WARRANT OR THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE HEREOF IS ALSO SUBJECT TO THE TERMS SET FORTH IN THIS WARRANT. 
  
 WARRANT TO PURCHASE 
 COMMON STOCK

 of 
 CORAUTUS
GENETICS INC. 
 Void after December 31, 2008 
  
 This certifies that, for value received,             
                         , or registered assigns (“Holder”) is entitled, subject to the terms set
forth below, to purchase from Corautus Genetics Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”),                      
             (                    ) shares of the common stock, par value
$0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Company, as constituted on                         ,
200   (the “Warrant Issue Date”), upon surrender hereof, at the principal office of the Company referred to below, with the notice of exercise form attached hereto duly executed, and simultaneous payment therefor in
lawful money of the United States or otherwise as hereinafter provided, at the Exercise Price then in effect as set forth in Section 2 below. The number, character and Exercise Price of such shares of Common Stock are subject to adjustment as
provided below. The term “Warrant” as used herein shall mean this Warrant, which is one of a series of warrants dated on or about the date hereof issued for shares of Common Stock of the Company (“Common Stock
Warrants”) pursuant to that certain Common Stock and Warrant Purchase Agreement, dated January 8, 2004, between the Company and various purchasers (the “Purchase Agreement”). 
  
 1. Term of Warrant. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth
herein, this Warrant shall be exercisable, in whole or in part, during the term commencing on the Warrant Issue Date and ending at 5:00 p.m., eastern time, on December 31, 2008 and shall be void thereafter. 
  

 B-1 

 2. Exercise Price. The exercise price at which this Warrant may be exercised shall be
$             per share of Common Stock, as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Section 10 hereof (such exercise price, as adjusted, referred to as the “Exercise
Price”). 
  
 3. Exercise of Warrant. 

 
 (a) The purchase rights represented by this Warrant are exercisable by the
Holder in whole or in part, but not for less than 1,000 shares at a time (or such lesser number of shares which may then constitute the maximum number purchasable; such number being subject to adjustment as provided in Section 10 below), at any
time, or from time to time, during the term hereof as described in Section 1 above, by the surrender of this Warrant and the Notice of Exercise annexed hereto duly completed and executed on behalf of the Holder, at the office of the Company (or such
other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the Holder at the address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Company), upon payment in cash or by check acceptable to the Company of the purchase price of the
shares to be purchased. 
  
 (b) Notwithstanding any provisions
herein to the contrary, if the fair market value of one share of Common Stock is greater than the Exercise Price (calculated on a per share basis) therefor (at the date of calculation as set forth below), in lieu of exercising this Warrant for cash,
the Holder may elect to receive shares of Common Stock equal to the value (as determined below) of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being canceled) by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company, in which event the Company
shall issue to the Holder that number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula: 
  
 PFD = WPFD (FMV-EP) 
             FMV 
  
 Where: 
  

		
	 PFD =
	  	the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Holder
		
	 WPFD =
	  	the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable under this Warrant or, if only a portion of this Warrant is being exercised, the portion of this Warrant being exercised (at the
date of such calculation)
		
	 FMV =
	  	the fair market value of one share of Common Stock (at the date of such calculation) as determined below
		
	 EP =
	  	Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation) of this Warrant

  
 For purposes of the above calculation,
the fair market value of one share of Common Stock shall be determined by the Board, with the Holder’s representatives abstaining, in good faith; provided, however, that where there exists a public market for the Common Stock at
the time of such exercise, the fair market value per share shall be equal to the average of the closing bid and asked prices of the Common Stock quoted in the Over-The-Counter Market Summary or the last reported sale price of the Common Stock or the
closing price quoted on the NASDAQ National 

  

 B-2 

 
Market System or on any exchange on which the Common Stock is listed, whichever is applicable, as published in The Wall Street Journal, averaged for the five
trading days prior to the date of determination of the fair market value. 
  
 (c) The person entitled to receive the shares Common Stock issuable upon the foregoing exercise or deemed exercise shall be treated for all purposes as the holder of record of such shares as of the close of business
on such date. As promptly as practicable on or after such date and in any event within five days thereafter, the Company at its expense shall issue and deliver to the person or persons entitled to receive the same a certificate or certificates for
the number of shares issuable upon such exercise. In the event that this Warrant is exercised in part, the Company at its expense will execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor exercisable for the number of shares for which this Warrant may
then be exercised. 
  
 4. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No
fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. 
  
 5. Replacement of Warrant. On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this
Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company or, in the case of mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company at
its expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu of this Warrant, a new warrant of like tenor and amount. 
  
 6. Rights of Stockholders. Subject to Section 10 of this Warrant, the Holder shall not be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed
the holder of Common Stock or any other securities of the Company that may at any time be issuable on the exercise hereof for any purpose, nor shall anything contained herein be construed to confer upon the Holder, as such, any of the rights of a
stockholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether upon any recapitalization, issuance of
stock, reclassification of stock, change of par value, or change of stock to no par value, consolidation, merger, conveyance, or otherwise) or to receive notice of meetings, or to receive dividends or subscription rights or otherwise until the
Warrant shall have been exercised as provided herein. 
  
 7.
Transfer of Warrant. 
  
 (a) Warrant Register. The
Company will maintain a register (the “Warrant Register”) containing the names and addresses of the Holder or Holders. Any Holder of this Warrant or any portion thereof may change his or her address as shown on the Warrant Register
by written notice to the Company requesting such change. Any notice or written communication required or permitted to be given to the Holder may be delivered or given by mail to such Holder as shown on the Warrant Register and at the address shown
on the Warrant Register. Until this Warrant is transferred on the Warrant Register of the Company, the Company may treat the Holder as shown on the Warrant Register as the absolute owner of this Warrant for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice
to the contrary. 
  

 B-3 

 (b) Warrant Agent. The Company may, by written notice to the Holder, appoint an agent for the
purpose of maintaining the Warrant Register referred to in Section 7(a) above, issuing the Common Stock or other securities then issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant, exchanging this Warrant, replacing this Warrant, or any or all of the
foregoing. Thereafter, any such registration, issuance, exchange, or replacement, as the case may be, shall be made at the office of such agent. 
  
 (c) Transferability and Negotiability of Warrant. This Warrant may not be transferred or assigned in whole or in part without compliance with all
applicable federal and state securities laws by the transferor and the transferee (including the delivery of investment representation letters and legal opinions reasonably satisfactory to the Company, if such are requested by the Company). Subject
to the provisions of this Warrant with respect to compliance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and applicable state securities laws, title to this Warrant may be transferred by endorsement (by the
Holder executing the Assignment Form annexed hereto) and delivery in the same manner as a negotiable instrument transferable by endorsement and delivery. Any transfer of this Warrant is also subject to the provisions of Section 6.2 of the Purchase
Agreement. 
  
 (d) Exchange of Warrant Upon a Transfer. On
surrender of this Warrant for exchange, properly endorsed on the Assignment Form and subject to the provisions of this Warrant with respect to compliance with the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws and with the limitations on
assignments and transfers contained in this Section 7, the Company at its expense shall issue to or on the order of the Holder new warrant or warrants of like tenor, in the name of the Holder or as the Holder (on payment by the Holder of any
applicable transfer taxes) may direct, for the number of shares issuable upon exercise hereof. 
  
 (e) Compliance with Securities Laws. 
  
 (i) The Holder of this Warrant, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges that this Warrant and the shares of Common 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 Common Stock to be issued upon exercise hereof or conversion thereof except under circumstances that
will not result in a violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws. Upon exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall, if requested by the Company, confirm in writing, in a form satisfactory to the Company, that the shares of
Common Stock so purchased are being acquired solely for the Holder’s own account and not as a nominee for any other party, for investment, and not with a view toward distribution or resale. 
  
 (ii) All shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise hereof
or conversion thereof shall be stamped or imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form (in addition to any legend required by state securities laws): 
  
 THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES
LAWS. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF 

  

 B-4 

 
SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED. 
  
 8. Reservation of Stock. The Company covenants that during the term
this Warrant is exercisable, the Company will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant and, from time to time, will take all
steps necessary to amend its certificate of incorporation to provide sufficient reserves of shares Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant. The Company further covenants that all shares that may be issued upon the exercise of rights
represented by this Warrant and payment of the Exercise Price, all as set forth herein, will be free from all taxes, liens and charges in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously or
otherwise specified herein). The Company agrees 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
shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant. 
  
 9. Amendments. 
  
 (a) Any term of this Warrant
may be amended with the written consent of the Company and the holders of warrants representing not less than fifty percent (50%) of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of any and all outstanding Common Stock Warrants, even without the
consent of the Holder. Any amendment effected in accordance with this Section 9 shall be binding upon each holder of any of the Common Stock Warrants, each future holder of all such Common Stock Warrants, and the Company; provided,
however, that no special consideration or inducement may be given to any such holder in connection with such consent that is not given ratably to all such holders, and that such amendment must apply to all such holders equally and ratably in
accordance with the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of their Common Stock Warrants. The Company shall promptly give notice to all holders of Common Stock Warrants of any amendment effected in accordance with this Section 9.

  
 (b) No waivers of, or exceptions to, any term, condition or
provision of this Warrant, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be, or construed as, a further or continuing waiver of any such term, condition or provision. 
  
 10. Adjustments. The Exercise Price and the number of shares purchasable hereunder are subject to adjustment from
time to time as follows: 
  
 (a) Merger, Sale of Assets,
etc. If at any time while this Warrant, or any portion thereof, is outstanding and unexpired there shall be (i) a reorganization (other than a combination, reclassification, exchange or subdivision of shares otherwise provided for herein), (ii)
a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation in which the Company is not the surviving entity, or a reverse triangular merger in which the Company is the surviving entity but the shares of the Company’s capital
stock outstanding immediately prior to the merger are converted by virtue of the merger into other property, whether in the form of securities, cash, or otherwise, or (iii) a sale or transfer of the Company’s properties and assets as, or
substantially as, an entirety to any other person, then, as a part of such reorganization, merger, 

  

 B-5 

 
consolidation, sale or transfer, lawful provision shall be made so that the Holder of this Warrant shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon exercise of
this Warrant, during the period specified herein and upon payment of the Exercise Price then in effect, the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the successor corporation resulting from such reorganization, merger,
consolidation, sale or transfer that a holder of the shares deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant would have been entitled to receive in such reorganization, consolidation, merger, sale or transfer if this Warrant had been exercised immediately
before such reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale or transfer, all subject to further adjustment as provided in this Section 10. The foregoing provisions of this Section 10(a) shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations,
consolidations, mergers, sales and transfers and to the stock or securities of any other corporation that are at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant. If the per-share consideration payable to the Holder hereof for shares in
connection with any such transaction is in a form other than cash or marketable securities, then the value of such consideration shall be determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors. In all events, appropriate adjustment (as
determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors) shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Warrant with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder after the transaction, to the end that the provisions of
this Warrant shall be applicable after that event, as near as reasonably may be, in relation to any shares or other property deliverable after that event upon exercise of this Warrant. 
  
 (b) Reclassification, etc. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant, or any portion hereof, remains outstanding
and unexpired by reclassification of securities or otherwise, shall change any of the securities as to which purchase rights under this Warrant exist into the same or a different number of securities of any other class or classes, this Warrant shall
thereafter represent the right to acquire such number and kind of securities as would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the securities that were subject to the purchase rights under this Warrant immediately prior to
such reclassification or other change and the Exercise Price therefor shall be appropriately adjusted, all subject to further adjustment as provided in this Section 10. 
  
 (c) Split, Subdivision or Combination of Shares. If the Company at any time while this Warrant, or any portion
hereof, remains outstanding and unexpired shall split, subdivide or combine the securities as to which purchase rights under this Warrant exist, into a different number of securities of the same class, the Exercise Price for such securities shall be
proportionately decreased in the case of a split or subdivision or proportionately increased in the case of a combination. Upon each adjustment in the Exercise Price pursuant to this subsection, the number of shares of such securities purchasable
hereunder shall be adjusted, to the nearest whole share, to the product obtained by multiplying the number of shares purchasable immediately prior to such adjustment in the Exercise Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Exercise
Price immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which shall be the Exercise Price immediately thereafter. 
  
 (d) Adjustments for Dividends in Stock or Other Securities or Property. If while this Warrant, or any portion hereof, remains outstanding and
unexpired the holders of the securities as to which purchase rights under this Warrant exist at the time shall have received, or, on or after the record date fixed for the determination of eligible stockholders, shall have become entitled to
receive, without payment therefor, other or additional stock or other securities or 

  

 B-6 

 
property (other than cash) of the Company by way of dividend (except for distributions specifically provided for in the foregoing subsection (b) and (c) of
this Section 10), then and in each case, this Warrant shall represent the right to acquire, in addition to the number of shares of the security receivable upon exercise of this Warrant, and without payment of any additional consideration therefor,
the amount of such other or additional stock or other securities or property (other than cash) of the Company that such holder would hold on the date of such exercise had it been the holder of record of the security receivable upon exercise of this
Warrant on the date hereof and had thereafter, during the period from the date hereof to and including the date of such exercise, retained such shares and/or all other additional stock available by it as aforesaid during such period, giving effect
to all adjustments called for during such period by the provisions of this Section 10. 
  
 (e) Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment pursuant to this Section 10, the Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in
accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to each Holder of this Warrant a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Company shall, upon the
written request, at any time, of any such Holder, furnish or cause to be furnished to such Holder a like certificate setting forth: (i) such adjustments and readjustments; (ii) the Exercise Price at the time in effect; and (iii) the number of shares
and the amount, if any, of other property that at the time would be received upon the exercise of the Warrant. 
  
 (f) No Impairment. The Company will not, by any voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be
observed or performed hereunder by the Company, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Section 10 and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the
rights of the Holder of this Warrant against impairment. 
  
 11. Governing Law. This Warrant shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Georgia. 
  
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Warrant to be executed by its duly authorized officer as of the
             day of                         ,
