    This
      Warrant is issued pursuant to a Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription
      Agreement”)
      between the Company and the investor named therein in connection with a private
      placement by the Company of its securities. By acceptance of this Warrant,
      the
      Holder agrees to comply with all applicable provisions of the Subscription
      Agreement.

     

    1.  Exercise
      of Warrant.

     

    (a)  This
      Warrant may be exercised in whole at any time, or in part from time to time,
      commencing on January 11, 2006 and prior to 5:00 P.M., New York City time,
      on
      January 11, 2011 by the Holder:

     

    (i)  by
      the
      surrender of this Warrant (with the subscription form at the end hereof duly
      executed) at the address set forth in Section 9(a) hereof, together with proper
      payment of the Aggregate Warrant Price, or the proportionate part thereof if
      this Warrant is exercised in part, with payment for the Warrant Shares made
      by
      certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company;
      or

     

    (ii)  by
      the
      surrender of this Warrant (with the cashless exercise form at the end hereof
      duly executed) (a “Cashless
      Exercise”)
      at the
      address set forth in Section 9(a) hereof. Pursuant to such Cashless Exercise,
      the aggregate purchase price for Warrant Shares being purchased hereunder shall
      be paid by surrender of a number of Warrant Shares available for exercise under
      this Warrant that have a Current Market Price equal to the aggregate purchase
      price of the Warrant Shares being purchased as determined herein. If the Holder
      elects the Cashless Exercise method of payment, the Company shall issue to
      Holder upon exercise a number of shares of Warrant Shares determined in
      accordance with the following formula:

     

    
      	
              X= 
                

            	
              Y(A-B)

            
	
              A

            

    

    

    where: X
      = the
      number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder;

    

    
      
        
        

      

      
        2

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

       

      
        	
              	
                Y =
                  

              	
                the
                  number of Warrant Shares with respect to which the Holder is exercising
                  its purchase rights under this
                  Warrant;

              

      

    

    

    
      	 	
              A
                =
                

            	
              the
                Current Market Price of one (1) share of the Warrant Shares on the
                date of
                exercise; and

            

    

     

    
      	
            	
              B =
                

            	
              the
                Per Share Warrant Price.

            

    

     

    No
      fractional shares arising out of the above formula for determining the number
      of
      shares to be issued to the Holder shall be issued, and the Company shall in
      lieu
      thereof make payment to the Holder of cash in the amount of such fraction
      multiplied by the Current Market Price of one (1) share of the Warrant Shares
      on
      the date of exercise. 

    

    (b)  If
      this
      Warrant is exercised in part, this Warrant must be exercised for a number of
      whole shares of the Common Stock and the Holder is entitled to receive a new
      Warrant covering the Warrant Shares that have not been exercised and setting
      forth the proportionate part of the Aggregate Warrant Price applicable to such
      Warrant Shares. Upon surrender of this Warrant, the Company will (i) issue
      a
      certificate or certificates in the name of the Holder for the largest number
      of
      whole shares of the Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled and,
      if
      this Warrant is exercised in whole, in lieu of any fractional share of the
      Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled, pay to the Holder cash
      in an
      amount equal to the fair value of such fractional share (determined in such
      reasonable manner as the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine),
      and
      (ii) deliver the other securities and properties receivable upon the exercise
      of
      this Warrant, or the proportionate part thereof, if this Warrant is exercised
      in
      part, pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant. 

     

    2.  Reservation
      of Warrant Shares; Listing.
      The
      Company agrees that, prior to the expiration of this Warrant, the Company shall
      at all times (a) have authorized and in reserve, and shall keep available,
      solely for issuance and delivery upon the exercise of this Warrant, the shares
      of the Common Stock and other securities and properties as from time to time
      shall be receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant, free and clear of all
      restrictions on sale or transfer, other than under Federal or state securities
      laws, and free and clear of all preemptive rights and rights of first refusal
      and (b) if the Company hereafter lists its Common Stock on any national
      securities exchange, the Nasdaq National Market or the Nasdaq Smallcap Market,
      use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Warrant Shares authorized
      for listing on such exchange upon notice of issuance.

     

    3.  Certain
      Adjustments.

     

    (a)  If,
      at
      any time or from time to time after the date of this Warrant, the Company shall
      issue or distribute to all holders of shares of Common Stock by reason of their
      ownership thereof evidence of its indebtedness, any other securities of the
      Company or any cash, property or other assets (excluding a subdivision,
      combination or reclassification, or dividend or distribution payable in shares
      of Common Stock, referred to in Section 3(b), and also excluding cash dividends
      or cash distributions paid out of net profits legally available therefor in
      the
      full amount thereof (any such non-excluded event being herein called a
“Special
      Dividend”)),
      the
      Per Share Warrant Price shall be adjusted by multiplying the Per Share Warrant
      Price then in effect by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the then
      Current Market Price in effect on the record date of such issuance or
      distribution less the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the
      Company’s Board of Directors) of the evidence of indebtedness, cash, securities
      or property, or other assets issued or distributed in such Special Dividend
      applicable to one share of Common Stock and the denominator of which shall
      be
      the then Current Market Price in effect on the record date of such issuance
      or
      distribution. An adjustment made pursuant to this Subsection 3(a) shall become
      effective immediately after the record date of any such Special
      Dividend.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        3

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

       

    

    (b)  In
      case
      the Company shall hereafter (i) pay a dividend or make a distribution on its
      capital stock in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivide its outstanding shares
      of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, (iii) combine its outstanding
      shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or (iv) issue by
      reclassification of its Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company,
      the Per Share Warrant Price shall be adjusted to be equal to a fraction, the
      numerator of which shall be the Aggregate Warrant Price and the denominator
      of
      which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock or other capital stock
      of
      the Company that the Holder would have owned immediately following such action
      had such Warrant been exercised immediately prior thereto. An adjustment made
      pursuant to this Subsection 3(b) shall become effective immediately after the
      record date in the case of a dividend or distribution, and shall become
      effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision,
      combination or reclassification.

     

    (c)  In
      case
      of any capital reorganization or reclassification, or any consolidation or
      merger to which the Company is a party other than a merger or consolidation
      in
      which the Company is the continuing corporation, or in case of any sale or
      conveyance to another entity of all or substantially all of the assets of the,
      or in the case of any statutory exchange of securities with another corporation
      (including any exchange effected in connection with a merger of a third
      corporation into the Company, but excluding any exchange of securities or merger
      with another corporation in which the Company is a continuing corporation and
      that does not result in any reclassification of or similar change in the Common
      Stock), the Holder of this Warrant shall have the right thereafter to receive
      on
      the exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of securities, cash or other
      property which the Holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive
      immediately after such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger,
      statutory exchange, sale or conveyance had this Warrant been exercised
      immediately prior to the effective date of such reorganization,
      reclassification, consolidation, merger, statutory exchange, sale or conveyance
      and in any such case, if necessary, appropriate adjustment shall be made in
      the
      application of the provisions set forth in this Section 3 with respect to the
      rights and interests thereafter of the Holder of this Warrant to the end that
      the provisions set forth in this Section 3 shall thereafter correspondingly
      be
      made applicable, as nearly as may reasonably be, in relation to any shares
      of
      stock or other securities or property thereafter deliverable on the exercise
      of
      this Warrant. The above provisions of this Section 3(c) shall similarly apply
      to
      successive reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, mergers,
      statutory exchanges, sales or conveyances. The Company shall require the issuer
      of any shares of stock or other securities or property thereafter deliverable
      on
      the exercise of this Warrant to be responsible for all of the agreements and
      obligations of the Company hereunder. Notice of any such reorganization,
      reclassification, consolidation, merger, statutory exchange, sale or conveyance
      and of said provisions so proposed to be made, shall be mailed to the Holders
      of
      the Warrants not less than twenty (20) days prior to such event. A sale of
      all
      or substantially all of the assets of the Company for a consideration consisting
      primarily of securities shall be deemed a consolidation or merger for the
      foregoing purposes.

    (d)  No
      adjustment in the Per Share Warrant Price shall be required unless such
      adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least $0.01 per share
      of
      Common Stock; provided,
      however,
      that
      any adjustments which by reason of this Subsection 3(d) are not required to
      be
      made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent
      adjustment; provided,
      further,
      however, that adjustments shall be required and made in accordance with the
      provisions of this Section 3 (other than this Subsection 3(d)) not later than
      such time as may be required in order to preserve the tax-free nature of a
      distribution (if any) to the Holder of this Warrant or Common Stock issuable
      upon the exercise hereof. All calculations under this Section 3 shall be made
      to
      the nearest cent or to the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be.
      Anything in this Section 3 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall
      be
      entitled to make such reductions in the Per Share Warrant Price, in addition
      to
      those required by this Section 3, as it in its discretion shall deem to be
      advisable in order that any stock dividend, subdivision of shares or
      distribution of rights to purchase stock or securities convertible or
      exchangeable for stock hereafter made by the Company to its stockholders shall
      not be taxable.

     

    (e)  Whenever
      the Per Share Warrant Price is adjusted as provided in this Section 3 and upon
      any modification of the rights of a Holder of Warrants in accordance with this
      Section 3, the Company shall promptly prepare a brief statement of the facts
      requiring such adjustment or modification and the manner of computing the same
      and cause copies of such certificate to be mailed to the Holders of the
      Warrants. The Company may, but shall not be obligated to unless requested by
      a
      Majority of the Holders, obtain, at its expense, a certificate of a firm of
      independent public accountants of recognized standing selected by the Board
      of
      Directors (who may be the regular auditors of the Company) setting forth the
      Per
      Share Warrant Price and the number of Warrant Shares in effect after such
      adjustment or the effect of such modification, a brief statement of the facts
      requiring such adjustment or modification and the manner of computing the same
      and cause copies of such certificate to be mailed to the Holders of the
      Warrants.

     

    (f)  If
      the
      Board of Directors of the Company shall declare any dividend or other
      distribution with respect to the Common Stock other than a cash distribution
      out
      of earned surplus, the Company shall mail notice thereof to the Holders of
      the
      Warrants not less than ten (10) days prior to the record date fixed for
      determining stockholders entitled to participate in such dividend or other
      distribution.

     

    (g)  If,
      as a
      result of an adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3, the Holder of any
      Warrant thereafter surrendered for exercise shall become entitled to receive
      shares of two or more classes of capital stock or shares of Common Stock and
      other capital stock of the Company, the Board of Directors (whose determination
      shall be conclusive and shall be described in a written notice to the Holder
      of
      any Warrant promptly after such adjustment) shall determine the allocation
      of
      the adjusted Per Share Warrant Price between or among shares or such classes
      of
      capital stock or shares of Common Stock and other capital stock.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        5

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

       

    

    (h)  Upon
      the
      expiration of any rights, options, warrants or conversion privileges with
      respect to the issuance of which an adjustment to the Per Share Warrant Price
      had been made, if such option, right warrant or conversion shall not have been
      exercised, the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this
      Warrant, to the extent this Warrant has not then been exercised, shall, upon
      such expiration, be readjusted and shall thereafter be such as they would have
      been had they been originally adjusted (or had the original adjustment not
      been
      required, as the case may be) on the basis of (A) the fact that Common Stock,
      if
      any, actually issued or sold upon the exercise of such rights, options, warrants
      or conversion privileges, and (B) the fact that such shares of Common Stock,
      if
      any, were issued or sold for the consideration actually received by the Company
      upon such exercise plus the consideration, if any, actually received by the
      Company for the issuance, sale or grant of all such rights, options, warrants
      or
      conversion privileges whether or not exercised; provided,
      however,
      that no
      such readjustment shall have the effect of decreasing the number of Warrant
      Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant by an amount in excess of
      the
      amount of the adjustment initially made in respect of the issuance, sale or
      grant of such rights, options, warrants or conversion privileges.

     

    (i)  In
      case
      any event shall occur as to which the other provisions of this Section 3 are
      not
      strictly applicable but as to which the failure to make any adjustment would
      not
      fairly protect the purchase rights represented by this Warrant in accordance
      with the essential intent and principles of the adjustments set forth in this
      Section 3, then, in each such case, the Board of Directors of the Company shall
      in good faith determine the adjustment, if any, on a basis consistent with
      the
      essential intent and principles established herein, necessary to preserve the
      purchase rights represented by the Warrants. Upon such determination, the
      Company will promptly mail a copy thereof to the Holder of this Warrant and
      shall make the adjustments described therein.

     

    4.  Fully
      Paid Stock; Taxes.
      The
      shares of the Common Stock represented by each and every certificate for Warrant
      Shares delivered on the exercise of this Warrant shall, subject to the Holder’s
      compliance with the terms hereof, at the time of such delivery, be duly
      authorized, validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable, and
      not subject to preemptive rights or rights of first refusal on the part of
      the
      Company, and the Company will take all such actions as may be necessary to
      assure that the par value, if any, per share of the Common Stock is at all
      times
      equal to or less than the then Per Share Warrant Price. The Company shall pay,
      when due and payable, any and all Federal and state stamp, original issue or
      similar taxes which may be payable in respect of the issue of any Warrant Share
      or any certificate thereof to the extent required because of the issuance by
      the
      Company of such security.

     

    5.  Registration
      Under Securities Act of 1933.

     

    (a)  The
      Holder shall have the right to participate in the registration rights granted
      to
      purchasers of the Securities pursuant to Article VI of the Subscription
      Agreement between such purchasers and the Company that were entered into at
      the
      time of the initial sale of the Securities. By acceptance of this Warrant,
      the
      Holder agrees to comply with the provisions in Article VI of the Subscription
      Agreement to same extent as if it were a party thereto.

    (b)  Until
      all
      of the Warrant Shares have been sold under a Registration Statement or pursuant
      to Rule 144(k), the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to
      file with the Securities and Exchange Commission all current reports and the
      information as may be necessary to enable the Holder to effect sales of its
      shares in reliance upon Rule 144(K) promulgated under the Act.

     

    6.  Investment
      Intent; Limited Transferability.

     

    (a)  The
      Holder represents to the Company, by accepting this Warrant, that it understands
      that this Warrant and any securities obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant
      have not been registered for sale under Federal or state securities laws and
      are
      being offered and sold to the Holder pursuant to one or more exemptions from
      the
      registration requirements of such securities laws. In the absence of an
      effective registration of such securities or an exemption therefrom, any
      certificates for such securities shall bear the legend set forth on the first
      page hereof. The Holder understands that it must bear the economic risk of
      its
      investment in this Warrant and any securities obtainable upon exercise of this
      Warrant for an indefinite period of time, as this Warrant and such securities
      have not been registered under Federal or state securities laws and therefore
      cannot be sold unless subsequently registered under such laws, unless an
      exemption from such registration is available. The Holder further represents
      to
      the Company, by accepting this Warrant, that is has full power and authority
      to
      enter into this Warrant and make the representations set forth
      herein.

     

    (b)  The
      Holder, by its acceptance of this Warrant, represents to the Company that it
      is
      acquiring this Warrant and will acquire any securities obtainable upon exercise
      of this Warrant for its own account for investment and not with a view to,
      or
      for sale in connection with, any distribution thereof in violation of the Act.
      The Holder, by acceptance of this Warrant, agrees that this Warrant and any
      such
      securities will not be sold or otherwise transferred unless (i) a registration
      statement with respect to such transfer is effective under the Act and any
      applicable state securities laws or (ii) such sale or transfer is made pursuant
      to one or more exemptions from the Act and in accordance with the legend set
      forth on the first page hereof.

     

    (c)  Either
      by
      reason of such Holder’s business or financial experience or the business or
      financial experience of its professional advisors (who are unaffiliated with
      and
      who are not compensated by the Company or any affiliate, finder or selling
      agent
      of the Company, directly or indirectly), such Holder has the capacity to protect
      such Holder’s interests in connection with the transactions contemplated by this
      warrant and the Purchase Agreement. The Holder, by its acceptance of this
      Warrant, represents to the Company that that it is able to fend for itself,
      can
      bear the economic risk of its investment, has such knowledge and experience
      in
      financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and
      risks of the investment in this Warrant, has received and reviewed a copy of
      the
      Confidential Private Offering Memorandum provided by the Company in connection
      with the Subscription Agreements, the Company’s public filings with the
      Securities and Exchange Commission and has had the opportunity to ask questions
      and receive answers from the Company regarding its business and financial
      condition. Holder also represents it has not been organized for the purpose
      of
      acquiring this Warrant.

    (d)  This
      Warrant may not be sold, transferred, assigned or hypothecated for six (6)
      months from the date hereof except in the case of an individual, pursuant to
      such individual’s last will and testament or the laws of descent and
      distribution, and is so transferable only upon the books of the Company which
      the Company shall cause to be maintained for such purpose; provided,
      however,
      in
      no event
      shall any portion of this Warrant be sold, transferred, assigned or hypothecated
      to more than 35 persons or entities. In addition to the foregoing limitations
      and in accordance with the legend on the first page hereof, this Warrant may
      not
      be sold, transferred, assigned or hypothecated by the Holder except in
      compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act and the applicable state
      securities “blue sky” laws, and is so transferable only upon the books of the
      Company which it shall cause to be maintained for such purpose. By acceptance
      of
      this Warrant each Holder (including any transferee of this Warrant or any
      portion hereof), makes the representations set forth herein. The Company may
      treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as it appears on the Company’s books
      at any time as the Holder for all purposes. The Company shall permit any Holder
      of a Warrant or its duly authorized attorney, upon written request during
      ordinary business hours, to inspect and copy or make extracts from its books
      showing the registered Holders of Warrant. All Warrants issued upon the transfer
      or assignment of this Warrant will be dated the same date as this Warrant,
      and
      all rights and obligations of the holder thereof shall be identical to those
      of
      the Holder.

     

    (e)  The
      Holder has been afforded (i) the opportunity to ask such questions as it has
      deemed necessary of, and to receive answers from, representatives of the Company
      concerning the terms and conditions of the Warrants or the exercise of the
      Warrants; and (ii) the opportunity to request such additional information which
      the Company possesses or can acquire without unreasonable effort or
      expense.

     

    (f)  The
      Holder did not (i) receive or review any advertisement, article, notice or
      other
      communication published in a newspaper or magazine or similar media or broadcast
      over television or radio, whether closed circuit, or generally available; or
      (ii) attend any seminar, meeting or investor or other conference whose attendees
      were, to such Holder’s knowledge, invited by any general solicitation or general
      advertising.

     

    (g)  The
      Holder is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D under the
      Act. Such Holder is acquiring the Warrants for its own account and not with
      a
      present view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution thereof in
      violation of the registration requirements of the Act, without prejudice,
      however, to such Holder’s right, subject to the provisions of the Subscription
      Agreement and this Warrant, at all times to sell or otherwise dispose of all
      or
      any part of such Warrants and Warrant Shares.

     

    7.  Loss,
      etc., of Warrant.
      Upon
      receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction
      or mutilation of this Warrant, and of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to
      the
      Company, if lost, stolen or destroyed, and upon surrender and cancellation
      of
      this Warrant, if mutilated, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Holder
      a new Warrant of like date, tenor and denomination.

     

    8.  Warrant
      Holder Not Stockholder.
      This
      Warrant does not confer upon the Holder any right to vote on or consent to
      or
      receive notice as a stockholder of the Company, as such, in respect of any
      matters whatsoever, nor any other rights or liabilities as a stockholder, prior
      to the exercise hereof; this Warrant does, however, require certain notices
      to
      Holders as set forth herein.

    9.  Communication.
      No
      notice
      or other communication under this Warrant shall be effective or deemed to have
      been given unless, the same is in writing and is mailed by first-class mail,
      postage prepaid, or via recognized overnight courier with confirmed receipt,
      addressed to:

      in writing to the Holder.

      Holder at the address of such Holder as set forth on the signature page to
      the
      Subscription Agreement or other such address as the Holder has designated in
      writing to the Company.

     

    10.  Headings.
      The
      headings of this Warrant have been inserted as a matter of convenience and
      shall
      not affect the construction hereof.

     

    11.  Applicable
      Law.
      This
      Warrant shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the
      State of New York without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law
      thereof.

     

    12.  Amendment,
      Waiver, etc.
      Except
      as expressly provided herein, neither this Warrant nor any term hereof may
      be
      amended, waived, discharged or terminated other than by a written instrument
      signed by the party against whom enforcement of any such amendment, waiver,
      discharge or termination is sought; provided, however, that any provisions
      hereof may be amended, waived, discharged or terminated upon the written consent
      of the Company and the Majority of the Holders.

      Agreement”)
      between
      the Company and Paramount BioCapital, Inc. in connection with a private

    1. Exercise
      of Warrant.
      

    

    (a) This
      Warrant may be exercised in whole at any time, or in part from time to time,
      commencing on January 11, 2006 and prior to 5:00 P.M., New York City time,
      on
      January 11, 2011 by the Holder:

    

    (i) by
      the
      surrender of this Warrant (with the subscription form at the end hereof duly
      executed) at the address set forth in Section 9(a) hereof, together with proper
      payment of the Aggregate Warrant Price, or the proportionate part thereof if
      this Warrant is exercised in part, with payment for the Warrant Shares made
      by
      certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company;
      or

    

    (ii) by
      the
      surrender of this Warrant (with the cashless exercise form at the end hereof
      duly executed) (a "Cashless
      Exercise")
      at the
      address set forth in Section 9(a) hereof. Pursuant to such Cashless Exercise,
      the aggregate purchase price for Warrant Shares being purchased hereunder shall
      be paid by surrender of a number of Warrant Shares available for exercise under
      this Warrant that have a Current Market Price equal to the aggregate purchase
      price of the Warrant Shares being purchased as determined herein. If the Holder
      elects the Cashless Exercise method of payment, the Company shall issue to
      Holder upon exercise a number of shares of Warrant Shares determined in
      accordance with the following formula:

    

    
      	
              X 
                =  

            	
              Y(A-B)

            
	
              A

            

    

     

    
      	            where:	
              X =
                

            	
              the
                number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the
                Holder;

            

    

     

    
      	
            	
              Y =
                

            	
              the
                number of Warrant Shares with respect to which the Holder is exercising
                its purchase rights under this
                Warrant;

            

    

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        2

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    
      	 	
              A
                =
                

            	
              the
                Current Market Price of one (1) share of the Warrant Shares on the
                date of
                exercise; and

            

    

     

    
      
        	
              	
                B =
                  

              	
                the
                  Per Share Warrant Price.

              

      

    No
      fractional shares arising out of the above formula for determining the number
      of
      shares to be issued to the Holder shall be issued, and the Company shall in
      lieu
      thereof make payment to the Holder of cash in the amount of such fraction
      multiplied by the Current Market Price of one (1) share of the Warrant Shares
      on
      the date of exercise. 

     

    (b) If
      this
      Warrant is exercised in part, this Warrant must be exercised for a number of
      whole shares of the Common Stock and the Holder is entitled to receive a new
      Warrant covering the Warrant Shares that have not been exercised and setting
      forth the proportionate part of the Aggregate Warrant Price applicable to such
      Warrant Shares. Upon surrender of this Warrant, the Company will (i) issue
      a
      certificate or certificates in the name of the Holder for the largest number
      of
      whole shares of the Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled and,
      if
      this Warrant is exercised in whole, in lieu of any fractional share of the
      Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled, pay to the Holder cash
      in an
      amount equal to the fair value of such fractional share (determined in such
      reasonable manner as the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine),
      and
      (ii) deliver the other securities and properties receivable upon the exercise
      of
      this Warrant, or the proportionate part thereof, if this Warrant is exercised
      in
      part, pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant. 

    

    2. Reservation
      of Warrant Shares; Listing.
      

    

    The
      Company agrees that, prior to the expiration of this Warrant, the Company shall
      at all times (a) have authorized and in reserve, and shall keep available,
      solely for issuance and delivery upon the exercise of this Warrant, the shares
      of the Common Stock and other securities and properties as from time to time
      shall be receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant, free and clear of all
      restrictions on sale or transfer, other than under Federal or state securities
      laws, and free and clear of all preemptive rights and rights of first refusal
      and (b) if the Company hereafter lists its Common Stock on any national
      securities exchange, the Nasdaq National Market or the Nasdaq Smallcap Market,
      use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Warrant Shares authorized
      for listing on such exchange upon notice of issuance.

    

    3. Certain
      Adjustments.
      

    

    (a) If,
      at
      any time or from time to time after the date of this Warrant, the Company shall
      issue or distribute to all holders of shares of Common Stock by reason of their
      ownership thereof evidence of its indebtedness, any other securities of the
      Company or any cash, property or other assets (excluding a subdivision,
      combination or reclassification, or dividend or distribution payable in shares
      of Common Stock, referred to in Section 3(b), and also excluding cash dividends
      or cash distributions paid out of net profits legally available therefor in
      the
      full amount thereof (any such non-excluded event being herein called a
      "Special
      Dividend")),
      the
      Per Share Warrant Price shall be adjusted by multiplying the Per Share Warrant
      Price then in effect by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the then
      Current Market Price in effect on the record date of such issuance or
      distribution less the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the
      Company's Board of Directors) of the evidence of indebtedness, cash, securities
      or property, or other assets issued or distributed in such Special Dividend
      applicable to one share of Common Stock and the denominator of which shall
      be
      the then Current Market Price in effect on the record date of such issuance
      or
      distribution. An adjustment made pursuant to this Subsection 3(a) shall become
      effective immediately after the record date of any such Special
      Dividend.

    

    
      
        
        

      

      
        3

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

       

    

    (b) In
      case
      the Company shall hereafter (i) pay a dividend or make a distribution on its
      capital stock in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivide its outstanding shares
      of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, (iii) combine its outstanding
      shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or (iv) issue by
      reclassification of its Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company,
      the Per Share Warrant Price shall be adjusted to be equal to a fraction, the
      numerator of which shall be the Aggregate Warrant Price and the denominator
      of
      which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock or other capital stock
      of
      the Company that the Holder would have owned immediately following such action
      had such Warrant been exercised immediately prior thereto. An adjustment made
      pursuant to this Subsection 3(b) shall become effective immediately after the
      record date in the case of a dividend or distribution, and shall become
      effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision,
      combination or reclassification.

    

    (c) In
      case
      of any capital reorganization or reclassification, or any consolidation or
      merger to which the Company is a party other than a merger or consolidation
      in
      which the Company is the continuing corporation, or in case of any sale or
      conveyance to another entity of all or substantially all of the assets of the,
      or in the case of any statutory exchange of securities with another corporation
      (including any exchange effected in connection with a merger of a third
      corporation into the Company, but excluding any exchange of securities or merger
      with another corporation in which the Company is a continuing corporation and
      that does not result in any reclassification of or similar change in the Common
      Stock), the Holder of this Warrant shall have the right thereafter to receive
      on
      the exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of securities, cash or other
      property which the Holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive
      immediately after such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger,
      statutory exchange, sale or conveyance had this Warrant been exercised
      immediately prior to the effective date of such reorganization,
      reclassification, consolidation, merger, statutory exchange, sale or conveyance
      and in any such case, if necessary, appropriate adjustment shall be made in
      the
      application of the provisions set forth in this Section 3 with respect to the
      rights and interests thereafter of the Holder of this Warrant to the end that
      the provisions set forth in this Section 3 shall thereafter correspondingly
      be
      made applicable, as nearly as may reasonably be, in relation to any shares
      of
      stock or other securities or property thereafter deliverable on the exercise
      of
      this Warrant. The above provisions of this Section 3(c) shall similarly apply
      to
      successive reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, mergers,
      statutory exchanges, sales or conveyances. The Company shall require the issuer
      of any shares of stock or other securities or property thereafter deliverable
      on
      the exercise of this Warrant to be responsible for all of the agreements and
      obligations of the Company hereunder. Notice of any such reorganization,
      reclassification, consolidation, merger, statutory exchange, sale or conveyance
      and of said provisions so proposed to be made, shall be mailed to the Holders
      of
      the Warrants not less than twenty (20) days prior to such event. A sale of
      all
      or substantially all of the assets of the Company for a consideration consisting
      primarily of securities shall be deemed a consolidation or merger for the
      foregoing purposes.

    

    
      
        
        

      

      
        4

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

       

    

    (d) No
      adjustment in the Per Share Warrant Price shall be required unless such
      adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least $0.01 per share
      of
      Common Stock; provided,
      however,
      that
      any adjustments which by reason of this Subsection 3(d) are not required to
      be
      made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent
      adjustment; provided,
      further,
      however, that adjustments shall be required and made in accordance with the
      provisions of this Section 3 (other than this Subsection 3(d)) not later than
      such time as may be required in order to preserve the tax-free nature of a
      distribution (if any) to the Holder of this Warrant or Common Stock issuable
      upon the exercise hereof. All calculations under this Section 3 shall be made
      to
      the nearest cent or to the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be.
      Anything in this Section 3 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall
      be
      entitled to make such reductions in the Per Share Warrant Price, in addition
      to
      those required by this Section 3, as it in its discretion shall deem to be
      advisable in order that any stock dividend, subdivision of shares or
      distribution of rights to purchase stock or securities convertible or
      exchangeable for stock hereafter made by the Company to its stockholders shall
      not be taxable.

    

    (e) Whenever
      the Per Share Warrant Price is adjusted as provided in this Section 3 and upon
      any modification of the rights of a Holder of Warrants in accordance with this
      Section 3, the Company shall promptly prepare a brief statement of the facts
      requiring such adjustment or modification and the manner of computing the same
      and cause copies of such certificate to be mailed to the Holders of the
      Warrants. The Company may, but shall not be obligated to unless requested by
      a
      Majority of the Holders, obtain, at its expense, a certificate of a firm of
      independent public accountants of recognized standing selected by the Board
      of
      Directors (who may be the regular auditors of the Company) setting forth the
      Per
      Share Warrant Price and the number of Warrant Shares in effect after such
      adjustment or the effect of such modification, a brief statement of the facts
      requiring such adjustment or modification and the manner of computing the same
      and cause copies of such certificate to be mailed to the Holders of the
      Warrants.

    

    (f) If
      the
      Board of Directors of the Company shall declare any dividend or other
      distribution with respect to the Common Stock other than a cash distribution
      out
      of earned surplus, the Company shall mail notice thereof to the Holders of
      the
      Warrants not less than ten (10) days prior to the record date fixed for
      determining stockholders entitled to participate in such dividend or other
      distribution.

    

    (g) If,
      as a
      result of an adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3, the Holder of any
      Warrant thereafter surrendered for exercise shall become entitled to receive
      shares of two or more classes of capital stock or shares of Common Stock and
      other capital stock of the Company, the Board of Directors (whose determination
      shall be conclusive and shall be described in a written notice to the Holder
      of
      any Warrant promptly after such adjustment) shall determine the allocation
      of
      the adjusted Per Share Warrant Price between or among shares or such classes
      of
      capital stock or shares of Common Stock and other capital stock.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        5

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

       

    

    (h) Upon
      the
      expiration of any rights, options, warrants or conversion privileges with
      respect to the issuance of which an adjustment to the Per Share Warrant Price
      had been made, if such option, right warrant or conversion shall not have been
      exercised, the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this
      Warrant, to the extent this Warrant has not then been exercised, shall, upon
      such expiration, be readjusted and shall thereafter be such as they would have
      been had they been originally adjusted (or had the original adjustment not
      been
      required, as the case may be) on the basis of (A) the fact that Common Stock,
      if
      any, actually issued or sold upon the exercise of such rights, options, warrants
      or conversion privileges, and (B) the fact that such shares of Common Stock,
      if
      any, were issued or sold for the consideration actually received by the Company
      upon such exercise plus the consideration, if any, actually received by the
      Company for the issuance, sale or grant of all such rights, options, warrants
      or
      conversion privileges whether or not exercised; provided,
      however,
      that no
      such readjustment shall have the effect of decreasing the number of Warrant
      Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant by an amount in excess of
      the
      amount of the adjustment initially made in respect of the issuance, sale or
      grant of such rights, options, warrants or conversion privileges.

    

    (i) In
      case
      any event shall occur as to which the other provisions of this Section 3 are
      not
      strictly applicable but as to which the failure to make any adjustment would
      not
      fairly protect the purchase rights represented by this Warrant in accordance
      with the essential intent and principles of the adjustments set forth in this
      Section 3, then, in each such case, the Board of Directors of the Company shall
      in good faith determine the adjustment, if any, on a basis consistent with
      the
      essential intent and principles established herein, necessary to preserve the
      purchase rights represented by the Warrants. Upon such determination, the
      Company will promptly mail a copy thereof to the Holder of this Warrant and
      shall make the adjustments described therein.

    

    4. Fully
      Paid Stock; Taxes.
      The
      shares of the Common Stock represented by each and every certificate for Warrant
      Shares delivered on the exercise of this Warrant shall, subject to the Holder’s
      compliance with the terms hereof, at the time of such delivery, be duly
      authorized, validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable, and
      not subject to preemptive rights or rights of first refusal on the part of
      the
      Company, and the Company will take all such actions as may be necessary to
      assure that the par value, if any, per share of the Common Stock is at all
      times
      equal to or less than the then Per Share Warrant Price. The Company shall pay,
      when due and payable, any and all Federal and state stamp, original issue or
      similar taxes which may be payable in respect of the issue of any Warrant Share
      or any certificate thereof to the extent required because of the issuance by
      the
      Company of such security.

    

    5. Registration
      Under Securities Act of 1933.
      (a) The
      Holder shall have the right to participate in the registration rights granted
      to
      purchasers of the Securities (as defined in the Subscription Agreement) pursuant
      to Article VI of the Subscription Agreement between such purchasers and the
      Company that were entered into at the time of the initial sale of the Securities
      (the “Subscription
      Agreement”).
      By
      acceptance of this Warrant, the Holder agrees to comply with the provisions
      in
      Article VI of the Subscription Agreement to same extent as if it were a party
      thereto.

    (b) Until
      all
      of the Warrant Shares have been sold under a Registration Statement or pursuant
      to Rule 144(k), the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to
      file with the Securities and Exchange Commission all current reports and the
      information as may be necessary to enable the Holder to effect sales of its
      shares in reliance upon Rule 144(K) promulgated under the Act.

    

    6. Investment
      Intent; Limited Transferability. 

    

    (a)
      The
      Holder represents to the Company, by accepting this Warrant, that it understands
      that this Warrant and any securities obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant
      have not been registered for sale under Federal or state securities laws and
      are
      being offered and sold to the Holder pursuant to one or more exemptions from
      the
      registration requirements of such securities laws. In the absence of an
      effective registration of such securities or an exemption therefrom, any
      certificates for such securities shall bear the legend set forth on the first
      page hereof. The Holder understands that it must bear the economic risk of
      its
      investment in this Warrant and any securities obtainable upon exercise of this
      Warrant for an indefinite period of time, as this Warrant and such securities
      have not been registered under Federal or state securities laws and therefore
      cannot be sold unless subsequently registered under such laws, unless an
      exemption from such registration is available. The Holder further represents
      to
      the Company, by accepting this Warrant, that is has full power and authority
      to
      enter into this Warrant and make the representations set forth
      herein.

     

    (b)
      The
      Holder, by its acceptance of this Warrant, represents to the Company that it
      is
      acquiring this Warrant and will acquire any securities obtainable upon exercise
      of this Warrant for its own account for investment and not with a view to,
      or
      for sale in connection with, any distribution thereof in violation of the Act.
      The Holder, by acceptance of this Warrant, agrees that this Warrant and any
      such
      securities will not be sold or otherwise transferred unless (i) a registration
      statement with respect to such transfer is effective under the Act and any
      applicable state securities laws or (ii) such sale or transfer is made pursuant
      to one or more exemptions from the Act and in accordance with the legend set
      forth on the first page hereof.

    

    (c)
      The
      Holder, by its acceptance of this Warrant, represents to the Company that that
      it is able to fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of its investment,
      has
      such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is
      capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in this Warrant,
      has received and reviewed a copy of the Confidential Private Offering Memorandum
      provided by the Company in connection with the Subscription Agreements, the
      Company’s public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and has had
      the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding
      its business and financial condition. Holder also represents it has not been
      organized for the purpose of acquiring this Warrant.

    (d)
      This
      Warrant may not be sold, transferred, assigned or hypothecated for six (6)
      months from the date hereof except (i) to any firm or corporation that succeeds
      to all or substantially all of the business of Paramount BioCapital, Inc.,
      (ii)
      to any of the officers, employees, associates or affiliated companies of
      Paramount BioCapital, Inc., or of any such successor firm, (iii) to any NASD
      member participating in the Offering or any officer or employee of any such
      NASD
      member or (iv) in the case of an individual, pursuant to such individual's
      last
      will and testament or the laws of descent and distribution, and is so
      transferable only upon the books of the Company which the Company shall cause
      to
      be maintained for such purpose; provided,
      however,
      in
      no event
      shall any portion of this Warrant be sold, transferred, assigned or hypothecated
      to more than 35 persons or entities. In addition to the foregoing limitations
      and in accordance with the legend on the first page hereof, this Warrant may
      not
      be sold, transferred, assigned or hypothecated by the Holder except in
      compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act and the applicable state
      securities “blue sky” laws, and is so transferable only upon the books of the
      Company which it shall cause to be maintained for such purpose. By acceptance
      of
      this Warrant each Holder (including any transferee of this Warrant or any
      portion hereof), makes the representations set forth herein. The Company may
      treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as it appears on the Company's
      books
      at any time as the Holder for all purposes. The Company shall permit any Holder
      of a Warrant or its duly authorized attorney, upon written request during
      ordinary business hours, to inspect and copy or make extracts from its books
      showing the registered Holders of Warrant. All Warrants issued upon the transfer
      or assignment of this Warrant will be dated the same date as this Warrant,
      and
      all rights and obligations of the holder thereof shall be identical to those
      of
      the Holder.

    

    (e) Such
      Holder is acquiring the Warrants for its own account and not with a present
      view
      to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution thereof in violation of
      the
      registration requirements of the Act, without prejudice, however, to such
      Holder’s right, subject to the provisions of the Subscription Agreement and this
      Warrant, at all times to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of such
      Warrants and Warrant Shares.

    

    7. Loss,
      etc., of Warrant.
      Upon
      receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction
      or mutilation of this Warrant, and of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to
      the
