3.        Reservation of

The Company hereby agrees that at all times during the term of

Upon receipt by the Company of evidence satisfactory to it of
the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and (in the case of
loss, theft or destruction) receipt of reasonably satisfactory indemnification,
and (in the case of mutilation) upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant,

Against Dilution.

The Exercise Price and the number of shares which can be
purchased by the Holder upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to
adjustment in the events and in the manner following: 

	 	(1) 	
      If and whenever the shares at any time outstanding shall
      be subdivided into a greater or consolidated into a lesser number of
      shares, the Exercise Price shall be decreased or increased proportionately
      as the case may be; upon any such subdivision or consolidation, the number
      of shares which can be purchased upon the exercise of this warrant
      certificate shall be increased or decreased proportionately as the case
      may be.

	 	 	 
	 	(2) 	
      In case of any capital reorganization or of any
      reclassification of the capital of the Company or in case of the
      consolidation, merger or amalgamation of the Company with or into any
      other company, this Warrant shall after such capital reorganization,
      reclassification of capital, consolidation, merger or amalgamation confer
      the right to purchase the number of shares or other securities of the
      Company or of the Company resulting from such capital reorganization,
      reclassification, consolidation, merger or amalgamation, as the case may
      be, to which the Holder of the shares deliverable at the time of such
      capital reorganization, reclassification of capital, consolidation, merger
      or amalgamation, upon the exercise of this Warrant would have been
      entitled. On such capital reorganization, reclassification, consolidation,
      merger or amalgamation appropriate adjustments shall be made in the
      application of the provisions set forth herein with respect to the rights
      and interest thereafter of the Holder of this Warrant so that the
      provisions set forth herein shall thereafter be applicable as nearly as
      may reasonably be in relation to any shares or other securities thereafter
      deliverable on the exercise of this Warrant.

	 	 	 
	 	(3) 	
      The rights of the Holder evidenced hereby are to purchase
      shares prior to or on the date set out on the face of this Warrant. If
      there shall, prior to the exercise of any of the rights evidenced hereby,
      be any reorganization of the authorized capital of the Company by way of
      consolidation, merger, subdivision, amalgamation or otherwise, or the
      payment of

	 		
      any stock dividends, then there shall automatically be an
      adjustment in either or both of the number of shares which may be
      purchased pursuant hereto or the price at which such shares may be
      purchased so that the rights evidenced hereby shall thereafter as
      reasonably as possible be equivalent to those originally granted hereby.
      The Company shall have the sole and exclusive power to make such
      adjustments as it considers necessary and desirable.

	 	 	 
	 	(4)

registering the resale of the shares to be acquired by the holder on exercise of
the warrants, the Company’s Common Shares shall trade at a price in excess of
$0.40 per share (the “Limit Price”) for a period of 20 consecutive trading days,
then the Holder shall have 15 days in which to elect whether or not to exercise
the Warrants (the “Accelerated Exercise Period”). In the event the Warrants are
not exercised within the Accelerated Exercise Period, they will expire and the
Holder will no longer have any right to exercise the Warrants.

Comply with the Securities Act 

This Warrant and the Warrant Shares have not been registered
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the "Act") and has been issued to
the Holder for investment purposes and not with a view to the distribution of
either the Warrant or the Warrant Shares. Neither this Warrant nor any of the
Warrant Shares or any other security issued or issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant may be sold, transferred, pledged or hypothecated in the absence of an
effective registration statement under the Act relating to such security or an
opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that registration is
not required under the Act. Each certificate for the Warrant, the Warrant Shares
and any other security issued or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall
contain a legend on the face thereof, in form and substance satisfactory to
counsel for the Company, setting forth the restrictions on transfer contained in
this Section. The Holder understands that this Warrant and the stock purchasable
hereunder constitute “restricted securities” under federal securities laws and
acknowledges that Rule 144 of the Securities and Exchange Commission is not now,
and may not in the future be, available for resales of this Warrant and/or the
stock purchasable hereunder. 

All certificates representing the Warrant Shares will be
endorsed with the following legend: 

  “THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE
    NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 (THE "ACT"), AND HAVE
    BEEN OFFERED AND SOLD IN RELIANCE UPON EXEMPTIONS FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS
    OF THE ACT. SUCH SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED
    OR RESOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED UNLESS THEY ARE REGISTERED UNDER THE APPLICABLE
    PROVISIONS OF THE ACT OR ARE EXEMPT FROM SUCH REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS.”
  

9.        Payment of
Taxes 

The Company shall not be required to pay any tax or other
charge imposed in connection with the exercise of this Warrant or a permissible
transfer involved in the issuance of any certificate for shares 

issuable under this Warrant in the name other than that of the
Holder, and in any such case, the Company shall not be required to issue or
deliver any stock certificate until such tax or other charge has been paid or it
has been established to the Company’s satisfaction that no such tax or other
charge is due. 

10.      Notices

writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon, (a) by personal delivery or

	 	(c) 	
      the Subscriber does not intend any sale of the Shares

      under the Securities Act or applicable state securities law or to comply

CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 (THE
"ACT"), AND HAVE BEEN ISSUED IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION
REQUIREMENTS OF THE ACT PROVIDED BY REGULATION S PROMULGATED UNDER THE ACT. SUCH
SECURITIES MAY NOT BE REOFFERED FOR SALE OR RESOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED
EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF REGULATION S, PURSUANT TO AN
EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT, OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM
REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT. HEDGING TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING THE SECURITIES MAY
NOT BE CONDUCTED UNLESS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE ACT”. 

4.              
         REPRESENTATIONS AND
WARRANTIES OF THE SUBSCRIBER 

The Subscriber, represents and warrants to the Company as
follows, and acknowledges that the Company is relying upon such covenants,
representations and warranties in connection with the sale of the Units to such
Subscriber: 

4.1                     
The Subscriber is an investor in securities of companies in the development
stage and acknowledges that it is able to fend for itself, can bear the economic
risk of its investment, and has such knowledge and experience in financial or
business matters such that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of
the investment in the Units. The Subscriber can bear the economic risk of this
investment, and was not organized for the purpose of acquiring the Units. 

4.2                     
The Subscriber has had full opportunity to review the Company’s filings with the
SEC pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including the Company’s
annual reports on Form 10-KSB and quarterly reports on Form 10-QSB, and
additional information regarding the business and financial condition of the
Company. The Subscriber believes it has received all the information it
considers necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to purchase the Units.
The Subscriber further represents that it has had an opportunity to ask
questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and
conditions of the Offering and the business, properties, prospects and financial
condition of the Company. The Subscriber has had full opportunity to discuss
this information with the Subscriber’s legal and financial advisers prior to
execution of this Agreement. 

4.3                     
The Subscriber acknowledges that the offering of the Units by the Company has
not been reviewed by the SEC and that the Units are being issued by the Company
pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act. 

4.4                     
The Subscribers understands that the Units it is purchasing are characterized as
"restricted securities" under the Securities Act inasmuch as they are being
acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and
that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold
without registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited
circumstances. In this connection, the Subscriber represents that it is familiar
with SEC Rule 144, as presently in effect, and understands the resale
limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act. 

4.5                     
The Units will be acquired by the Subscriber for investment for the Subscriber's
own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or
distribution of any part thereof, and that the Subscriber has no present
intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing
the same. The Subscriber does not have any contract, undertaking, 

5

agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or
grant participations to such person or to any third person, with respect to any
of the Units. 

4.6                     
An investment in the Company is highly speculative and only Subscribers who can
afford the loss of their entire investment should consider investing in the
Company and the Units. The Subscriber is financially able to bear the economic
risks of an investment in the Company. 

4.7                     
The Subscriber recognizes that the purchase of the Units involves a high degree
of risk in that the Company is in the early stages of development of its
business and may require substantial funds in addition to the proceeds of this
private placement. 

4.8                     
The Subscriber is not aware of any advertisement of the Units. 

4.9                     
This Agreement has been duly authorized, validly executed and delivered by the
Subscriber. 

4.10                    The
Subscriber has satisfied himself or herself as to the full observance of the
laws of his or her jurisdiction in connection with any invitation to subscribe
for the Units or any use of this Agreement, including (i) the legal requirements
within his jurisdiction for the purchase of the Units; (ii) any foreign exchange
restrictions applicable to such purchase; (iii) any governmental or other
consents that may need to be obtained; (iv) the income tax and other tax
consequences, if any, that may be relevant to an investment in the Units; and
(v) any restrictions on transfer applicable to any disposition of the Units
imposed by the jurisdiction in which the Subscriber is resident. 

5.
