to the Company at its principal executive office (the "DESIGNATED OFFICE") (i) a notice of exercise, in substantially the form attached hereto (the "EXERCISE NOTICE"), duly completed and signed by the Holder, and (ii) this Warrant, and (b) paying the Warrant Purchase Price pursuant to SECTION 2.2 for the number of Warrant Shares proposed to be purchased in the Exercise Notice. Subject to the provisions of SECTION 2.4, the Warrant Shares being purchased under this Warrant will be deemed to have been issued to
the Holder, as the record owner of such Warrant Shares, as of the close of business on the date on which payment therefor is made by the Holder pursuant to SECTION 2.2. Stock certificates representing the Warrant Shares so purchased shall be delivered to the Holder within three (3) Business Days after this Warrant has been exercised (or, if applicable, immediately after the conditions set forth in SECTION 2.4 have been satisfied); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in the case of a purchase of less than all of the Warrant
Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall cancel this Warrant and, within three (3) Business Days after this Warrant has been surrendered, execute and deliver to the Holder a new Warrant of like tenor for the number of unexercised Warrant Shares. Each stock certificate representing the number of Warrant Shares purchased pursuant to this Warrant shall be registered in the name of the Holder or, subject to compliance with Applicable Laws, such other name as designated by the Holder.

 

2.2. PAYMENT OF WARRANT PRICE. Payment of the Warrant Purchase Price shall be made, at the option of the Holder, by (i) check from the Holder, (ii) wire transfer, (iii) instructing the Company to withhold and cancel a number of Warrant
Shares then issuable 

 

 

4

 
upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value over the Warrant Purchase Price for such canceled Warrant Shares is at least equal to the Warrant Purchase Price for the Warrant Shares being purchased, (iv) surrendering to the Company of shares of Common Stock previously acquired by the Holder with a Fair Market Value equal to the
Warrant Purchase Price for the Warrant Shares then being purchased or (v) any combination of the foregoing.

 

2.3. NO FRACTIONAL SHARES. The Company shall not be required to issue fractional shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant. If any fraction of a share of Common Stock would, except for the provisions of this paragraph,
be issuable on the exercise of this Warrant (or specified portion thereof), the Company shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash calculated by it to be equal to the then Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock multiplied by such fraction computed to the nearest whole cent.

 

2.4. ANTITRUST NOTIFICATION. If the Holder determines, in its sole judgment upon the advice of counsel, that an exercise of this Warrant pursuant to the terms hereof is subject to the provisions of the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements
Act of 1976, as amended (the "HSR ACT"), the Holder shall notify the Company, and the Company and the Holder shall, prior to the payment of the Warrant Purchase Price, file with the United States Federal Trade Commission (the "FTC") and the United States Department of Justice (the "DOJ") the notification and report form, if any, required in connection with the exercise of this Warrant, and any supplemental information required in connection therewith, pursuant to the HSR Act. Any information required to be provided
by or with respect to the Company shall be provided by the Company within seven (7) Business Days after receiving notification from the Holder of the applicability of the HSR Act. Any such notification, report form and supplemental information will be in full compliance with the requirements of the HSR Act. The Company will furnish to the Holder such necessary information and such assistance as the Holder may reasonably request in connection with the preparation of any filing or submission which is necessary
under the HSR Act.

 

The Company shall respond promptly after receiving any inquiries or requests for additional information from the FTC or the DOJ (and in no event more than five (5) Business Days after receipt of such inquiry or request). The Company shall keep the Holder apprised of the status of any communications with, and any inquiries or requests for
additional information from, the FTC or the DOJ, and shall respond promptly to any such inquiries or requests. The Company shall bear all filing or other fees required to be paid by the Company and the Holder (or the "ultimate parent entity" of the Holder, if any) under the HSR Act or any other Applicable Law and the Company shall bear all costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Company and the Holder (or the "ultimate parent entity" of the Holder, if any) in
connection with the preparation of such filings, responses to inquiries or requests and compliance with the HSR Act and other Applicable Laws. In the event that this SECTION 2.4 is applicable to any exercise of this Warrant, the purchase of the Warrant Shares subject to the Exercise Notice, and the payment of the Warrant Purchase Price, will be subject to the expiration or earlier termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act.

 

3. ADJUSTMENTS TO THE NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES AND TO THE WARRANT PURCHASE PRICE. The number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is 

 

 

5

 
exercisable and the Warrant Purchase Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this SECTION 3.

 

3.1. STOCK DIVIDENDS, SUBDIVISIONS AND COMBINATIONS. If at any time the Company:

 

(a) pays a dividend or other distribution on its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock or shares of any other class or series of Capital Stock;

 

(b) subdivides its outstanding shares of Common Stock (by stock split, reclassification or otherwise) into a larger number of shares of Common Stock; or

 

(c) combines (by reverse stock split or otherwise) its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, then the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior
to the record date for such dividend or distribution or the effective date of such subdivision or combination shall be adjusted so that the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant the kind and number of shares of Common Stock that the Holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive immediately after such record date or effective date had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such record date or effective date. Any adjustment made pursuant to this SECTION
3.1 shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such event, but be retroactive to the record date, if any, for such event.

 

Upon any adjustment of the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant as herein provided, the Warrant Purchase Price per share shall be adjusted by multiplying the Warrant Purchase Price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of Warrant Shares purchasable
upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which shall be the number of Warrant Shares so purchasable immediately thereafter.

 

3.2. RIGHTS; OPTIONS; WARRANTS. If, at any time after the Issuance Date, the Company issues (without payment of any consideration) to all holders of outstanding Common Stock any rights, options or warrants to subscribe for or purchase
shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, then the Company shall also distribute, at the same time as the distribution to such holders, such rights, options, warrants or securities to the Holder as if this Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to the record date for such issuance.

 

3.3. DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS OR SECURITIES. If at any time the Company makes a distribution (other than a distribution covered by SECTION 3.1 or 3.2) to its shareholders of any asset, including cash or securities (such distribution, a
"DISTRIBUTION", and the total of the cash, assets or securities so distributed, the "DISTRIBUTION AMOUNT"), then, at the Holder’s option:

 

(i) the Holder shall have the right to receive an amount of assets, including cash or securities equal to the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the Distribution, multiplied by the Distribution
Amount, divided by the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at such time. Upon the closing of the 

 

 

6

 
Distribution, the Company shall distribute such portion of the Distribution Amount to the Holder; or

 

(ii) the Warrant Purchase Price shall be adjusted and shall be equal to the Warrant Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such
distribution, multiplied by a fraction (which shall not be less than zero), the numerator of which shall be the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the date fixed for such determination, less the amount of cash, the then-fair market value of the portion of the assets, or the fair market value of the portion of the securities, as the case may be (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, subject to the Holder’s rights under SECTION 3.8(E)), so distributed applicable
to one share of Common Stock, and the denominator of which shall be the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock. Such adjustment to the Warrant Purchase Price shall become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day immediately following the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution. Upon any adjustment to the Warrant Purchase Price as provided for in this SECTION 3.3(ii), the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant
shall also be adjusted and shall be equal to the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Warrant Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which is the Warrant Purchase Price as so adjusted.

 

3.4. ISSUANCE OF EQUITY SECURITIES AT LESS THAN FAIR MARKET VALUE OR WARRANT PURCHASE PRICE.

 

(a) If, at any time after Issuance Date, the Company shall issue or sell (or, in accordance with SECTION 3.4(b), shall be deemed to have issued or sold) shares of Common Stock, Equity Rights or Convertible Securities representing the
right to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock (other than any Excluded Shares) at a price per share of Common Stock that is lower than the Reference Price in effect immediately prior to such sale and issuance, then the Warrant Purchase Price shall be adjusted so that it shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Warrant Purchase Price in effect immediately prior thereto by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be an amount equal to the sum of (A) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such sale and issuance plus (B) the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration received by the Company (and in the case of adjustments triggered in full or in part by the issuance of Equity Rights or Convertible Securities, the aggregate consideration deemed received in respect of such issuance determined as provided in SECTION 3.4(b) below) for such sale or issuance would purchase at such Reference Price per share, and the denominator of which shall be the total number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding (and in the case of adjustments triggered in full or in part by the issuance of Equity Rights or Convertible Securities, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be outstanding as a result of such issuance determined as provided in SECTION 3.4(b) below) immediately after such sale or issuance.

 

Adjustments shall be made successively whenever such an issuance is made. Upon any adjustment in the Warrant Purchase Price as provided in this SECTION 3.4(a), the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall also be 

 

 

7

 
adjusted and shall be that number determined by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Warrant Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which is the Warrant Purchase Price as so adjusted.

 

(b) For the purpose of determining the adjusted Warrant Purchase Price under SECTION 3.4(a), the following shall be applicable:

 

(i) If the Company in any manner issues or grants any Equity Rights (including Equity Rights to acquire Convertible Securities), and the price per share for which shares of Common Stock are issuable upon the exercise of such Equity Rights
or upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities is less than the Reference Price determined as of the date of such issuance or grant of such Equity Rights, then the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Equity Rights (or upon conversion or exchange of the total maximum amount of such Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Equity Rights) shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company for such lower price
per share. For purposes of this paragraph, the price per share for which shares of Common Stock are issuable upon exercise of Equity Rights or upon conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of Equity Rights shall be determined by dividing (A) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issuing or granting of such Equity Rights, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise of all
such Equity Rights, plus in the case of such Equity Rights which relate to Convertible Securities, the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange thereof, by (B) the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Equity Rights or upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Equity Rights.

 

(ii) If the Company in any manner issues or grants any Convertible Securities having an exercise or conversion or exchange price per Share which is less than the Reference Price determined as of the date of issuance or sale, then the
maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company for such lower price per share. For purposes of this paragraph, the price per share for which shares of Common Stock are issuable upon conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities is determined by dividing (A) the total amount received by the Company as consideration for the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities,
plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the conversion or exchange thereof, by (B) the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities.

 

(iii) If the purchase price provided for in any Equity Rights, the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issuance, conversion or exchange of any Convertible Securities or the rate at which any Convertible Securities are
convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock decreases at any time, or if the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, issuance, conversion or exchange of any Equity 

 

 

8

 
Rights or Convertible Securities increases at any time, then the Warrant Purchase Price in effect at the time of such decrease (or increase) shall be readjusted to the Warrant Purchase Price which would have been in effect at such time had such Equity Rights or Convertible Securities still outstanding provided for such decreased purchase price, additional consideration, changed
conversion rate or increased shares, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold and the number of Warrant Shares shall be correspondingly readjusted, by taking the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Warrant Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which is the Warrant Purchase Price as so adjusted.

 

(iv) If at any time the Company sells and issues shares of Common Stock or Equity Rights or Convertible Securities containing the right to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock for a consideration consisting, in whole or in
part, of property other than cash or its equivalent, then in determining the "price per share of Common Stock" and the "consideration received by the Company" for purposes of the preceding paragraphs of this SECTION 3.4, the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine, in good faith, the fair market value of property, subject to the Holder’s rights under SECTION 3.8(E).

 

(v) There shall be no adjustment of the Warrant Purchase Price in respect of the Common Stock pursuant to this SECTION 3.4 if the amount of such adjustment is less than $0.00001 per share of Common Stock;  PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
that any adjustments which by reason of this provision are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment.

 

3.5. REORGANIZATION, RECLASSIFICATION, MERGER, CONSOLIDATION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS. If at any time the Company reorganizes its capital, reclassifies its capital stock, consolidates, merges or combines with or into another Person (where
the Company is not the surviving corporation or where there is any change whatsoever in, or distribution with respect to, the outstanding Common Stock), or the Company sells, transfers or otherwise disposes of all or substantially all of its property, assets or business to another Person, other than in a transaction provided for in SECTION 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4 or 3.6, and, pursuant to the terms of such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, combination, sale, transfer or other disposition of assets,
(i) shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring Person or of the Company (if it is the surviving corporation) or (ii) any cash, shares of stock or other securities or property of any nature whatsoever (including warrants or other subscription or purchase rights) in addition to or in lieu of common stock of the successor or acquiring Person or the Company ("OTHER PROPERTY") are to be received by or distributed to the holders of Common Stock who are holders immediately prior to such transaction, then the
Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant, the number of shares of Common Stock, common stock of the successor or acquiring Person, and/or Other Property which holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such event would have owned or received immediately after and as a result of such event. In such event, the aggregate Warrant Purchase Price otherwise payable for the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant shall be allocated among such securities and Other Property in proportion to the respective fair market 

 

 

9

 
values of such securities and Other Property as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, subject to the Holder’s rights under SECTION 3.8(e).

 

In case of any such event, the successor or acquiring Person (if other than the Company) shall expressly assume the due and punctual observance and performance of each and every covenant and condition of this Warrant to be performed and observed by the Company and all the obligations and liabilities hereunder, subject to such modifications
as the Holder may approve in writing (as determined by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company) in order to provide for adjustments of any shares of common stock of such successor or acquiring Person for which this Warrant thus becomes exercisable, which modifications shall be as equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this SECTION 3.5. For purposes of this SECTION 3.5, "common stock of the successor or acquiring Person" shall include stock or other equity securities, or securities
that are exercisable or exchangeable for or convertible into equity securities, of such corporation, or other securities if such Person is not a corporation, of any class that is not preferred as to dividends or assets over any other class of stock of such corporation or Person and that is not subject to redemption and shall also include any evidences of indebtedness, shares of stock or other securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for any such stock, either immediately or upon the arrival of a specified
date or the happening of a specified event and any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any such stock. The foregoing provisions of this SECTION 3.5 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers and other dispositions of assets.

 

3.6. DISSOLUTION, TOTAL LIQUIDATION OR WINDING-UP. If at any time there is a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, total liquidation or winding-up of the Company, other than as contemplated by SECTION 3.5, then the Company shall cause
to be mailed (by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid) to the Holder at the Holder’s address as shown on the Warrant register, at the earliest practicable time (and, in any event, not less than thirty (30) calendar days before any date set for definitive action) written notice of the date on which such dissolution, liquidation or winding-up shall take place, as the case may be. Such notice shall also specify the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock
shall be entitled to exchange their shares for securities, money or other property deliverable upon such dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, as the case may be. On such date, the Holder shall be entitled to receive upon surrender of this Warrant the cash or other property, less the Warrant Purchase Price for this Warrant then in effect, that the Holder would have been entitled to receive had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such dissolution, liquidation or winding-up. Upon receipt of the cash
or other property, any and all rights of the Holder to exercise this Warrant shall terminate in their entirety. If the cash or other property distributable in the dissolution, liquidation or winding-up has a fair market value (as determined in good faith by the board of directors of the Company and set forth in a written notice to the Holder, subject to the Holder’s right to dispute such determination under SECTION 3.8(E)) which is less than the Warrant Purchase Price for this Warrant then in effect, this
Warrant shall terminate and be of no further force or effect upon the dissolution, liquidation or winding-up.

 

3.7. OTHER DILUTIVE EVENTS. If any event occurs 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 protect the purchase rights represented by this
Warrant in accordance with the intent and principles hereof then, in each such case, the Holder (or if the Warrant has been 

 

 

10

 
divided up, the Holders of Warrants exercisable for the purchase of more than fifty percent (50%) of the aggregate number of Warrant Shares then issuable upon exercise of all of the then exercisable Warrants) may appoint an independent investment bank or firm of independent public accountants which shall give its opinion as to the adjustment, if any, on a basis consistent with the
intent and principles established herein, necessary to preserve the purchase rights represented by this Warrant (or such Warrants). Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company will mail (by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid) a copy thereof to the Holder within three (3) Business Days and shall make the adjustments described therein. The fees and expenses of such investment bank or independent public accountants shall be borne by the Company.

 

3.8. OTHER PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO ADJUSTMENTS UNDER THIS SECTION. The following provisions shall be applicable to the adjustments provided for pursuant to this SECTION 3:

 

(a) WHEN ADJUSTMENTS TO BE MADE. The adjustments required by this SECTION 3 shall be made whenever and as often as any specified event requiring such an adjustment shall occur. For the purpose of any such adjustment, any specified event
shall be deemed to have occurred at the close of business on the date of its occurrence.

 

(b) RECORD DATE. If the Company fixes a record date of the holders of Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to (i) receive a dividend or other distribution payable in shares of Common Stock or in shares of any other class or
series of capital stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock or shares of any other class or series of capital stock or (ii) subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock or such other shares or securities, then all references in this SECTION 3 to the date of the issuance or sale of such shares of Common Stock or such other shares or securities shall be deemed to be references to that record date.

 

(c) WHEN ADJUSTMENT NOT REQUIRED. If the Company fixes a record date of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or distribution or subscription or purchase rights to which the provisions
of SECTION 3.1 would apply, but shall, thereafter and before the distribution to shareholders, legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend, distribution, subscription or purchase rights, then thereafter no adjustment shall be required by reason of the taking of such record and any such adjustment previously made in respect thereof shall be rescinded and annulled.

 

(d) NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENTS. Whenever the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable or the Warrant Purchase Price shall be adjusted or recalculated pursuant to this SECTION 3, the Company shall immediately
prepare a certificate to be executed by the chief financial officer of the Company setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment or recalculation and the method by which such adjustment or recalculation was calculated, specifying the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable and (if such adjustment was made pursuant to SECTION 3.5) describing the number and kind of any other shares of stock or Other Property for which this Warrant is exercisable, and any
related change in the Warrant Purchase Price, after giving effect to such adjustment, recalculation or change. The Company shall mail (by registered 

 

 

11

 
or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid) a signed copy of the certificate to be delivered to the Holder within three (3) Business Days of the event which caused the adjustment or recalculation. The Company shall keep at the Designated Office copies of all such certificates and cause them to be available for inspection at the Designated Office during normal business
hours by the Holder or any prospective transferee of this Warrant designated by the Holder.

 

(e) CHALLENGE TO GOOD FAITH DETERMINATION. Whenever the Board of Directors of the Company is required to make a determination in good faith of the fair market value of any item under this Warrant, or any item that may affect the value
of this Warrant, that determination may be challenged or disputed by the Holder (or if the Warrant has been divided up, the Holders of Warrants exercisable for more than fifty percent (50%) of the aggregate number of Warrant Shares then issuable upon exercise of all of the then exercisable Warrants), and any such challenge or dispute shall be resolved promptly, but in no event in more than thirty (30) days, by an investment banking firm of recognized national standing or one of the four (4) largest national accounting
firms agreed upon by the Company and the Holders and whose decision shall be binding on the Company and the Holders. If the Company and the Holders cannot agree on a mutually acceptable investment bank or accounting firm, then the Holders, jointly, and the Company shall within five (5) Business Days each choose one investment bank or accounting firm and the respective chosen firms shall within five (5) Business Days jointly select a third investment bank or accounting firm, which shall make the determination
promptly, but in no event in more than thirty (30) days, and such determination shall be binding upon all parties thereto. The Company shall bear all costs in connection with such determination, including without limitation, fees of the investment bank(s) or accounting firm(s), unless the change in Warrant Purchase Price determined pursuant to this paragraph is within five percent (5%) of the change in warrant purchase price as computed by the Company, in which case the Holder or Holders challenging the determination
shall bear such costs pro rata.

 

(f) INDEPENDENT APPLICATION.  Except as otherwise provided herein, all subsections of this SECTION 3 are intended to operate independently of one another (but without duplication). If an event occurs that requires the application
of more than one subsection, all applicable subsections shall be given independent effect without duplication.

 

3.9. FIDUCIARY DUTIES TO HOLDER. The board of directors of the Company shall at all times, whether or not this Warrant has been exercised, owe the Holder the same fiduciary duties that it would owe to a holder of the Warrant Shares underlying
the Warrant.

 

4. MISCELLANEOUS.

 

4.1. RESTRICTIVE LEGEND. This Warrant, any Warrant issued upon transfer of this Warrant and, unless registered under the Securities Act, any Warrant Shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant or any portion thereof shall be imprinted
with the following legend, in addition to any legend required under applicable state securities laws:

 

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, 

 

 

12

 
PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE ASSIGNED EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF SUCH ACT AND SUCH STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION OR QUALIFICATION THEREFROM.

 

The legend shall be appropriately modified upon issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock.

 

Upon request of the holder of a Common Stock certificate, the Company shall issue to that holder a new certificate free of the foregoing legend, if, with such request, such holder provides the Company with an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Company (PROVIDED that Dewey & LeBoeuf LLP shall be deemed to be acceptable
to the Company) to the effect that the securities evidenced by such certificate may be sold without restriction under Rule 144 (or any other rule permitting resales of securities without restriction) promulgated under the Securities Act.

 

4.2. HOLDER ENTITLED TO BENEFITS. This Warrant is the "Warrant" referred to in the Credit Agreement. The Holder is entitled to certain rights, benefits and privileges with respect to this Warrant and the Warrant Shares pursuant to the
terms of this Warrant and the Registration Rights Agreement.

 

4.3. OTHER COVENANTS.  The Company covenants and agrees that, as long as this Warrant remains outstanding or any Warrant Shares are issuable with respect to this Warrant, the Company will perform all of the following covenants
for the express benefit of the Holder: (a) the Warrant Shares shall, upon issuance, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock; (b) the Holder shall, upon the exercise hereof in accordance with the terms hereof, receive good and marketable title to the Warrant Shares, free and clear of all voting and other trust arrangements to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound, preemptive rights of any shareholder, liens, encumbrances, equities and claims whatsoever,
including, but not limited to, all Taxes, Liens and other charges with respect to the issuance thereof; (c) at all times prior to the Expiration Date, the Company shall have reserved for issuance a sufficient number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, or other securities or property for which this Warrant may then be exercisable, to permit this Warrant (or if this Warrant has been divided, all outstanding Warrants) to be exercised in full; (d) the Company shall deliver to the Holder the information
and reports delivered to any other holder of the Company's common stock; and (e) the Company shall provide the Holder with written notice of all corporate actions, including, without limitation, prior written notice of any dividends in the same manner and to the same extent as the shareholders of the Company.

 

4.4. ISSUE TAX. The issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Holder for any stamp, documentary, issue or similar tax in respect thereof.

 

4.5. CLOSING OF BOOKS. The Company will at no time close its transfer books against the transfer of this Warrant or of any Warrant Shares in any manner which interferes with the timely exercise hereof.

 

 

13

 

4.6. NO VOTING RIGHTS; LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. Except as expressly set forth in this Warrant or the Registration Rights Agreement, nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as conferring upon the Holder (a) the right to vote
or to consent as a shareholder in respect of meetings of shareholders for the election of directors of the Company or any other matter, or (b) the right to receive dividends except as set forth in Section 3. No provisions hereof, in the absence of affirmative action by the Holder to purchase shares of Common Stock, and no mere enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the Warrant Purchase Price or as a shareholder of the Company, whether such
liability is asserted by the Company or by its creditors.

 

4.7. MODIFICATION AND WAIVER. This Warrant and any provision hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which enforcement is sought.

4.11. LOST WARRANT OR CERTIFICATES. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or of a stock certificate evidencing Warrant Shares and, in the case of
any such loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt of an indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Company or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of the Warrant or stock certificate, the Company shall make and deliver to the Holder, within three (3) Business Days of receipt by the Company of such documentation, a new Warrant or stock certificate, of like tenor, in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant or stock certificate.

issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of the Holder against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value (if any) of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the
exercise of this Warrant above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (ii) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in 

 

 

15

 
order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, equities and claims, and (iii) use its best efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be necessary to enable
the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.

 

4.13. NO IMPLIED WAIVER. Nothing in this Warrant, including any reference herein to an act or transaction, shall be construed as, or imply, a waiver of any provision of the Credit Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement, including
any prohibition therein against such an act or transaction.

4.16. REMEDIES. If the Company fails to perform, comply with or observe any covenant or agreement to be performed, complied with or observed by it under this Warrant, the Holder may proceed to protect and enforce its rights by suit in
equity or action at law, whether for specific performance of any term contained in this Warrant or for an injunction against the breach of any such term or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in this Warrant or to enforce any other legal or equitable right, or to take any one or more of such actions. The Company hereby agrees that the Holder shall not be required or otherwise obligated to, and hereby waives any right to demand that the Holder, post any performance or other bond in
